Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Pubertal timing and incident uterine cancer in the Sister Study cohort

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 11, Page 2841-2852, 1 June 2026.
What's new? Younger age at menarche is an established risk factor for uterine cancer. Age at onset of breast development (thelarche), the earliest marker of pubertal estrogen exposure unopposed by progesterone, may also be relevant to uterine cancer risk, but this association has not been explored. Using data from the US prospective Sister Study cohort,
