Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract A decrease in resting muscle O2 uptake (V̇O2m${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}{\mathrm{m}}}}$) described during bed rest (BR) could determine a decreased whole‐body resting energy expenditure (REE), potentially useful during prolonged spaceflights. Two groups of recreationally active men (young [Y], n = 8, age 23 ± 5 years; elderly [E], n = 10, age ...

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Influence of low‐dose dopamine on exercise in fibrosing interstitial lung disease
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (FILD) is associated with dyspnoea and exercise intolerance. In other cardiorespiratory conditions, heightened carotid body (CB) chemoreflex sensitivity is associated with reduced exercise capacity. We tested the hypothesis that CB chemoreflex inhibition would improve exercise endurance time (EET) and reduce ...

Critical care (London, England)Pulse oximetry is one of the most commonly employed monitoring modalities in the critical care setting. This review describes the latest technological advances in the field of pulse oximetry. Accuracy of pulse oximeters and their limitations are critically examined.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Reduced cardiorespiratory fitness is common among breast cancer survivors and, although traditionally attributed to cardiac dysfunction, might also be related to peripheral skeletal muscle abnormalities. We examined peak and submaximal plantar‐flexion exercise and recovery kinetics for lower‐leg oxygen uptake (V̇O2${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$)

Experimental 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.

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...
