The effect of repeated hot water immersion on microvascular function, glycaemic control and inflammation in White European and South Asian males

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals of South Asian (SA) descent display a higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus than their White European (WE) counterparts. Heat therapy, such as hot water immersion (HWI), can improve microvascular function and glycaemic control, although effects across racial groups are unknown.

The contributions of nocturnal hypoxaemia and sleep disturbances to acute mountain sickness

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is common after ascent to altitude, yet individual susceptibility remains difficult to predict and diagnosis relies on subjective report. Sleep disturbances and nocturnal hypoxaemia at altitude may provide insight, but their relationship to AMS is incompletely understood.

Daily hot‐water immersion preserves altitude‐induced haemoglobin mass expansion following descent independent of erythropoietin

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude exposure increases haemoglobin mass (Hbmass), a key determinant of arterial oxygen‐carrying capacity, but following descent this adaptation can regress toward baseline within 7 days. Long‐term heat acclimation has emerged as an alternative stimulus for Hbmass expansion; however, whether post‐altitude passive‐heat exposure can ...

Physiological and autonomic responses to intermittent low‐lung‐volume apnoea and pain sensitivity: A randomized controlled pilot trial

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent apnoeas may induce hypoalgesia; however, the effects of low‐lung‐volume static apnoea have not been investigated. Eighty healthy participants were randomized to an apnoea group (AG) or a control group (CG). The AG performed a 6‐min protocol of intermittent static apnoea at low lung volume (passive exhalation), whereas the CG ...
