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.

Quantitative MRI changes in neck muscle size and composition following long‐duration spaceflight
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight poses several challenges to human health, including muscle loss and fat deposition. To mitigate these effects, exercise countermeasures are prescribed. This study aimed to measure neck muscle size and composition changes with long‐duration spaceflight using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and examine ...

Abstract Acute mountain sickness (AMS) affects many individuals ascending to high altitude annually, carrying potential morbidity and mortality risks (e.g., high‐altitude cerebral oedema). The objective of this pilot study was to record overnight pulse oximetry during ascent to 4554 m and determine whether: (1) extracted overnight biomarkers had any ...

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 ...

Ser ou não ser consiliente: eis a questão
Stephen J. Gould e Edward Wilson são autores emblemáticos de duas tendências opostas do darwinismo. A primeira defende a separação entre os duros fatos da natureza, tal como nos são apresentados pela teoria da seleção natural, e as questões de valor e ...
