Acute cardiovascular changes following heat exposure during simulated shipboard firefighting
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Like structural firefighting, shipboard firefighting requires extreme exertion. However, shipboard firefighting may be a unique cardiovascular stress as most sailors lack extensive firefighting experience and may complete significant work before reaching the fire scene.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Advanced age is the strongest risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs). Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has also been recognized as a risk factor for ADRD, potentially contributing to an earlier onset of the disease. Thus, elucidating the mechanisms underlying brain ageing and TBI is critical for developing strategies to ...

Microvascular endothelial function is blunted in postmenopausal females with frequent hot flushes
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Hot flushes of menopause are associated with elevated blood pressure (BP) and diminished macrovascular endothelial function, an initiating factor in the onset of atherosclerosis. Whether microvascular endothelial function is impaired in females with hot flushes, however, remains unknown.

How to measure intraocular pressure: Schiötz tonometry. [PDF]
, 2008 If glaucoma is diagnosed early, treatment can then be given that may preserve vision. Although raised intraocular pressure (IOP) is not the only sign of glaucoma, the IOP should be checked routinely on all adults attending eye care facilities ...

The contributions of nocturnal hypoxaemia and sleep disturbances to acute mountain sickness
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is common after ascent to altitude, yet individual susceptibility remains difficult to predict and diagnosis relies on subjective report. Sleep disturbances and nocturnal hypoxaemia at altitude may provide insight, but their relationship to AMS is incompletely understood.
