Sex differences in the work of breathing during exercise are independent of forced vital capacity in healthy adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During exercise, females have a higher work of breathing (ẆB) than males for a given minute ventilation (V̇E$ \dot {V}_{\text {E}}$) ≥ 50–60 L min−1, presumably due to sex differences in airway size. However, on average, males have greater forced vital capacity (FVC) than females, and the confounding effect of FVC on sex differences in ẆB is ...

Intermittent hand and forearm immersion in 20°C water attenuates thermal, cardiovascular, and perceptual strain in older adults during heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adults >65 years of age experience deleterious health effects during extreme heat events at a greater rate than any other age cohort. The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of acute intermittent hand and forearm (H+F) water immersion and/or chronic (7 week) folic acid supplementation on reducing thermal and cardiovascular ...

Imposed expiratory resistance, dynamic hyperinflation and locomotor power and fatigue

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Expiratory flow limitation results in dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnoea and premature exercise intolerance. We aimed to measure whether expiratory resistance reduces locomotor power via limiting maximal voluntary motor activity, exacerbating muscle fatigue, or both.

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Ageing exacerbates the adverse effects of respiratory muscle fatigue on vascular function, locomotor muscle fatigue and exercise performance in males

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the effect of respiratory muscle fatigue on cardiovascular function, locomotor muscle fatigue and exercise performance in young and master athletes, a model of successful ageing. Ten young male (YA, 27.4 ± 4.4 years) and 11 male master endurance athletes (MA, 65.0 ± 5.1 years) performed, on separate days, two constant ...
