Cardiopulmonary function in special operations forces compared to conventional infantry soldiers
Abstract Fitness is essential to military personnel in general, especially in the special operations forces (SOF), where the demanding tasks require a high level of physical fitness and mental robustness. However, little research has been done on SOF to characterise the putative underlying cardiopulmonary adaptations that distinguish them from ...

Abstract figure legend During cardiopulmonary exercise testing, the decline in oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex of women is striking. This crucial brain area is directly involved in planning motor tasks. The decline is particularly pronounced at higher exercise intensities, especially after reaching the respiratory compensation point or anaerobic ...

Abstract Control of frontal plane mechanics requires active integration of sensory feedback to regulate stability in response to gait perturbations, such as split‐belt walking (SBW). In comparison to sagittal plane mechanics, mediolateral (ML) kinematic and kinetic adaptations to split‐belt perturbations are less extensively reported.

Abstract The combined use of subcostal ultrasonography and respiratory manometry represents a novel, integrative method for quantifying diaphragm contractile function (force, velocity and power). We evaluated the technical feasibility, construct validity and within‐day test–retest reliability of this method during non‐volitional, volitional and ...
