Determinants of maximal oxygen uptake in highly trained females and males: a mechanistic study of sex differences using advanced invasive methods

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Long‐term passive heat acclimation enhances maximal oxygen consumption via haematological and cardiac adaptation in endurance runners

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Figure Legend Endurance‐trained runners completed a 5‐week hot‐water‐immersion (HWI) intervention (≥40°C, 45 min, five sessions per week) and a training‐matched control period in a cross‐over design. HWI induced a 33 g increase in haemoglobin mass (Hbmass) and a 10 mL expansion in left‐ventricular end‐diastolic volume (LVEDV), resulting in a 2.

The role of group III/IV afferent feedback in the ventilatory, pressor and metabolic responses to exercise in normoxia and hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Participants completed cycling exercise with (placebo) and without (25 µg intrathecal fentanyl) intact group III/IV muscle afferent feedback in three settings: normoxia, acute hypoxia and chronic hypoxia after 7–9 days of acclimatisation (∼3800 m). Blocking afferent feedback suppressed exercise hyperpnoea across all environments,

Myostatin‐dependent detrusor remodelling mediates contractility impairment in diabetic rats’ bladder – a maximal elastance analysis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In the muscular layer of long‐standing diabetic bladders increased myostatin expression promotes tissue remodelling by reducing the muscle‐to‐collagen ratio, ultimately diminishing bladder contractility. Maximal elastance – defined as the slope of the end‐emission pressure–volume relationship (EPR), derived from the regression ...
