Exercise‐induced dynamic hyperinflation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory lung disease caused by inhalation of noxious particles, most commonly cigarette smoking. The consequent changes in airways, lung parenchyma and pulmonary vasculature lead to increased resistive, elastic and threshold loads and impaired capacity of the respiratory muscle pump. COPD

Abstract Respiratory–swallowing coordination is critical for safe swallowing. Respiratory phase patterns, indicating the direction of respiration bracketing swallowing, appear minimally altered when oral airflow is measured alongside nasal airflow. Measures from an oronasal facemask also demonstrate broader features of swallowing non‐respiratory flow ...

Abstract This study investigated the effect of severe‐intensity exercise on neuromuscular fatigue (NMF) and torque complexity in two muscle groups of different sizes. The NMF of 11 healthy males was assessed through maximal voluntary contractions at the beginning, every minute and at task failure during intermittent isometric exercise performed at an ...

Sex‐based differences in corticospinal excitability and inhibition
Abstract The purpose of this study was to perform a novel exploration of sex‐based differences in various single‐ and paired‐pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)‐based measures of corticospinal excitability and inhibition. Thirty participants (15 females) attended one laboratory visit where responses evoked by single‐ and paired‐pulse TMS were

Menstrual cycle effects on sex differences in motor control during dynamic balance perturbations
Abstract This study investigated sex differences in neuromuscular responses during dynamic balance perturbations and isometric maximal voluntary contractions (IMVCs) by examining if menstrual cycle (MC) phase and the fluctuations in endogenous hormones influence the observation of sex differences.
