The role of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in predicting mortality and morbidity in people with congenital heart disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Oxford University Press / European Society of Cardiology, European Association for Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation, 18 August 2021)Background: The role of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in predicting major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in people with congenital heart disease (ConHD) is unknown. Design: A systematic review with ... -
Exploring the impact of COVID-19 on the willingness of older adults to participate in physiology research: views from past and potential volunteers
(Canadian Science Publishing, 28 June 2021)We explored the views of older (≥65 years) past and potential volunteers in regard to participating in physiology research during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using an online questionnaire and focus groups, we found that past ... -
Spaceflight affects neuronal morphology and alters transcellular degradation of neuronal debris in adult Caenorhabditis elegans
(Cell Press, 29 January 2021)Abstract: Extended space travel, such as crewed missions to Mars and beyond, is a goal for both government space agencies and private companies. Research over the past decades, however, has shown that spaceflight poses ... -
Cocoa flavanols adjuvant to an oral nutritional supplement acutely enhances nutritive flow in skeletal muscle without altering leg glucose uptake kinetics in older adults
(MDPI, 13 May 2021)Ageing is associated with postprandial muscle vascular and metabolic dysfunction, suggesting vascular modifying interventions may be of benefit. Reflecting this, we investigated the impact of acute cocoa flavanol (450–500 ... -
Transcriptomic meta-analysis of disuse muscle atrophy vs. resistance exercise-induced hypertrophy in young and older humans
(Wiley, 5 May 2021)Background: Skeletal muscle atrophy manifests across numerous diseases; however, the extent of similarities/differences in causal mechanisms between atrophying conditions in unclear. Ageing and disuse represent two of the ...
