Adaptation of the cardiovascular system to weightlessness: Surprises, paradoxes and implications for deep space missions

Acta Physiologica, 2019
Weightlessness in space induces a fluid shift from the dependent to the cephalad parts of the body leading to distension of the cardiac chambers and an accumulation of blood in the veins of the head and neck.

The illusion of weightlessness

International Journal of Injury Control and Safety Promotion, 2010
The ballet pointe shoe is an interesting example of a product that has developed from the experimentation of a dancer to extend the art form. Over time, as the use of such a shoe became part of the tradition the form stagnated and there was little formal interaction with the user as to its continued effectiveness in terms of injury, cost and fit.

Thermal comfort under weightlessness: A physiological prediction

, 2020
This study investigated the physiological thermal response of people under simulated weightlessness using a 6° head down bed rest (HDBR) model to ensure the human body functions in the weightlessness way.

Amino aciduria in weightlessness

Acta Astronautica, 1979
Urinary excretion of amino acids by the 9 Skylab crewmen was studied as an indicator of the metabolic effects caused by exposure to the space flight environment. Intake was consistent in quality and quantity throughout the 28, 59 and 84-day flights for each of the crewmen and complete collections were accomplished.

Laparoscopic surgery in weightlessness

Surgical Endoscopy, 1996
Performing a surgical procedure in weightlessness has been shown not to be any more difficult than in a 1g environment if the requirements for the restraint of the patient, operator, and surgical hardware are observed. The feasibility of performing a laparoscopic surgical procedure in weightlessness, however, has been questionable.

Analysis of human microcirculation in weightlessness: Study protocol and pre-study experiments.

Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2018
BACKGROUND In weightlessness, alterations in organ systems have been reported. The microcirculation consists of a network of blood vessels with diameters of a few μm.

Effects of simulated weightlessness on thermal sweating of human body: An experimental study

, 2019
Thermal sweating is the thermoregulatory activity of the human body in hot and warm environments, which is critical to the human thermal comfort and health. The sweating of a human body in a real weightlessness environment has seldom been researched, and

Damage control surgery in weightlessness: A comparative study of simulated torso hemorrhage control comparing terrestrial and weightless conditions

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2017
BACKGROUND Torso bleeding remains the most preventable cause of post-traumatic death worldwide. Remote damage control resuscitation (RDCR) endeavours to rescue the most catastrophically injured, but has not focused on prehospital surgical torso ...
