Cardiometabolic effects of contrast therapy: A systematic review

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising prevalence of overweight and obesity, together with associated cardiometabolic disorders, underscores the need for additional strategies alongside established interventions. The growing popularity of contrast therapy – alternating exposure to heat and cold, a practice common in traditional Finnish sauna bathing – has prompted ...

Age‐related loss of hysteresis in the spontaneous vascular sympathetic baroreflex is associated with altered neural rather than mechanical control

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The vascular sympathetic baroreflex is critical for stabilising blood pressure. A notable feature of this reflex is hysteresis, a directional asymmetry in responsiveness during rising versus falling pressure that is evident in young adults but attenuated in older age.

Physical activity partly inhibits autonomic imbalance, immune dysfunction and quality of life induced by chronic shiftwork in policemen

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic shiftwork can impair autonomic cardiovascular regulation and immune homeostasis. However, the interaction between occupational status and physical activity level in military police officers remains incompletely understood. This cross‐sectional factorial study included 102 men stratified according to occupational status and physical ...

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors modulate exercise‐induced sympathetic activation in healthy humans during moderate‐intensity hypoxic exercise

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This randomized cross‐over trial (N = 12) addressed the hypothesis that selective reduction of pulmonary arterial pressure (i.e. manipulation of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptor activation) during hypoxic exercise would reduce sympathetic outflow (muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA)) in healthy humans.

Role of reactive oxygen species in mediating peripheral hypoxic vasodilation and sympathoexcitation at high altitude

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude acclimatisation increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) via activation of the arterial chemoreflex, pulmonary arterial baroreceptors and resetting of the sympathetic vascular baroreflex. However attempting to silence these mechanisms only partially normalises MSNA, implicating other contributory ...

Characterization of postnatal brain injury and behavioural deficits in a rat model of placental insufficiency‐induced fetal growth restriction

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a common pregnancy complication associated with long‐term neurodevelopmental impairments. Using the reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) rat model of placental insufficiency‐induced FGR, this study demonstrates that FGR leads to persistent anatomical, histological and behavioural ...
