Nat Commun
. 2025 Mar;
16(1):2543.
PMID: 40087302
Heat waves are associated with increased fatalities from adverse cardiovascular events attributed to the negative effects of heat on cardiac function. However, scientific understanding of acute cardiac adjustments to heat...

J Appl Physiol (1985)
. 2023 Dec;
136(2):408-420.
PMID: 38153847
Older adults are at greater risk of heat-related morbidity and mortality during heat waves, which is commonly linked to impaired thermoregulation. However, little is known about the influence of increasing...

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol
. 2023 Nov;
326(1):R53-R65.
PMID: 37955132
To maintain heat balance during exercise, humans rely on skin blood flow and sweating to facilitate whole body dry and evaporative heat exchange. These responses are modulated by the rise...

McCormick J, Meade R, King K, Notley S, Akerman A, McGarr G, et al.
J Appl Physiol (1985)
. 2023 Jul;
135(3):688-695.
PMID: 37471211
With rising global temperatures, heat-related mortality is increasing, particularly among older adults. Although this is often attributed to declines in thermoregulatory function, little is known regarding the effect of age...
