Influence of Social Isolation During Prolonged Simulated Weightlessness by Hindlimb Unloading
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 The hindlimb unloading (HU) model has been used extensively to simulate the cephalad fluid shift and musculoskeletal disuse observed in spaceflight with its application expanding to study immune, cardiovascular and central nervous system responses, among
