End user and forecaster interpretations of the European Avalanche Danger Scale: A study of avalanche probability judgments in Scotland

Risk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate Scottish end users' and professional forecasters' risk perception in relation to the 5‐point European Avalanche Danger Scale by eliciting numerical estimates of the probability of triggering an avalanche. Our main findings are that neither end users nor professional forecasters interpret the avalanche danger scale as intended ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Resistance exercise breaks during prolonged sitting augment the blood flow response to a subsequent oral glucose load in sedentary adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sitting‐induced impairments in postprandial blood flow are an important link between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic disease risk. The objective of this work was to examine the effects of resistance exercise breaks (REB) performed every 30 min during an otherwise sedentary 3‐h period on the vasodilatory response to a subsequent oral ...

Combined effects of normobaric hypoxia and cold on respiratory system responses to high‐intensity exercise

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cold temperatures (<−15°C) increase exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), while hypoxic‐induced hyperventilation exacerbates respiratory muscle fatigue for a given exercising task. This study aimed to determine the individual and combined effects of cold and normobaric hypoxia on the respiratory system responses to high‐intensity ...

Bioavailable testosterone and androgen receptor activation, but not total testosterone, are associated with muscle mass and strength in females

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐seven pre‐menopausal, untrained females performed a 12‐week resistance training programme to explore the association between androgen concentrations, androgen receptor signalling and skeletal muscle size and strength. Total testosterone was not associated with muscle mass or strength, nor with resistance training‐induced ...
