Louwies T, De Boever P, Hasso R, Tremblay M, Xu D, Blaber A, et al.
NPJ Microgravity
. 2024 Nov;
10(1):105.
PMID: 39548129
Long-term human spaceflight can lead to cardiovascular deconditioning, but little is known about how weightlessness affects microcirculation. In this study, we examined how the retinal microvessels and cerebrovascular regulation of...

Exp Physiol
. 2024 Feb;
109(5):812-827.
PMID: 38372420
Weightlessness during spaceflight can harm various bodily systems, including bone density, muscle mass, strength and cognitive functions. Exercise appears to somewhat counteract these effects. A terrestrial model for this is...

Front Hum Neurosci
. 2023 Oct;
17:1208273.
PMID: 37822710
Introduction: Prolonged physical inactivity with bed rest or spaceflight is associated with cardiovascular and neuromuscular deconditioning; however, its impact on neural integrity of cardio-postural reflexes and possible mitigation with exercise...

Fadil R, Huether A, Sadeghian F, Verma A, Blaber A, Lou J, et al.
Cardiovasc Eng Technol
. 2023 Sep;
14(6):755-773.
PMID: 37749359
Purpose: Activation of the calf (gastrocnemius and soleus) and tibialis anterior muscles play an important role in blood pressure regulation (via muscle-pump mechanism) and postural control. Parkinson's disease is associated...

Gerontology
. 2023 Sep;
69(11):1284-1294.
PMID: 37717560
Introduction: Head-down bed rest (HDBR) has long been used as an analog to microgravity, and it also enables studying the changes occurring with aging. Exercise is the most effective countermeasure...

Front Cardiovasc Med
. 2023 Mar;
10:1040036.
PMID: 36873416
Introduction: Healthy individuals with poor cardiovascular control, but who do not experience syncope (fainting), adopt an innate strategy of increased leg movement in the form of postural sway that is...

PMID: 36797288
The recent incidental discovery of an asymptomatic venous thrombosis (VT) in the internal jugular vein of an astronaut on the International Space Station prompted a necessary, immediate response from the...

Physiol Meas
. 2023 Jan;

PMID: 36720165
The relationship between heart rate and blood pressure, as well as cardiorespiratory coupling, play a critical role in maintaining blood pressure and organ perfusion during conditions of blood loss. Traditional...

PMID: 36213230
As part of the first Canadian aging and inactivity study (CAIS) we assessed the efficacy of space-based exercise countermeasures for maintenance of cardiac and muscle-pump baroreflex in older persons during...

NPJ Microgravity
. 2022 Jul;
8(1):25.
PMID: 35821029
During head-down tilt bed rest (HDT) the cardiovascular system is subject to headward fluid shifts. The fluid shift phenomenon is analogous to weightlessness experienced during spaceflight microgravity. The purpose of...
