Photoplethysmography for Quantitative Assessment of Sympathetic Nerve Activity (SNA) During Cold Stress [PDF]
, 2019 The differences in the degree of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) over cutaneous blood vessels, although known to be more prominent in the periphery than the core vasculature, has not been thoroughly investigated quantitatively.

Highly stretchable, moisture‐permeable, on‐skin electrodes from liquid metal and fiber mat
InfoMat, EarlyView.Abstract Stretchable epidermal electronics with stable electrical performance have been widely applied in numerous fields, including advanced medical therapy, wearable electronics, soft robotics, and human–machine interaction. However, conventional stretchable devices, which typically integrate a pliant substrate and a conductor, often encounter ...

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Thermoregulation is critical for preventing hyperthermia during physical activity. In Huntington's disease (HD), research on possible thermoregulatory alterations has received little attention. Objectives We aimed to investigate and compare skin temperature differences before and after exercise between HD patients and healthy ...

Refuge trifecta: intertidal gastropods use pits to escape heat, wave action and predation
Oikos, EarlyView.Refuges play a critical role in ecology and evolution. In hard intertidal shores, small pits attract benthic invertebrates such as gastropods, however, there exists little mechanistic understanding of the processes driving the active usage of these microhabitat features. We conducted a series of laboratory experiments to assess whether the marine snail

Evaluation of thermal comfort conditions in a classroom equipped with radiant cooling systems and subjected to uniform convective environment [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of this work is to evaluate numerically the human thermal response that 24 students and 1 teacher feel in a classroom equipped with radiant cooling systems and subjected to uniform convective environments, in lightly warm conditions.

Oikos, EarlyView.With temperatures rising globally due to climate change, an organism's survival depends both on its direct tolerance to rising temperatures and its tolerance to indirect effects of warming, such as resource shortage. Genetic background and phenotypic plasticity in the form of acclimation are known to affect stress tolerance, but much about genetic ...
