Aerobic fitness as a parameter of importance for labour loss in the heat
(2021)Objectives: To derive an empirical model for the impact of aerobic fitness (maximal oxygen consumption; V̇O2max in mL∙kg−1∙min−1) on physical work capacity (PWC) in the heat. Design: Prospective, repeated measures. Methods: ... -
Central sensitisation in chronic pain conditions: latest discoveries and their potential for precision medicine
(2021)Chronic pain is a leading cause of disability globally and associated with enormous health-care costs. The discrepancy between the extent of tissue damage and the magnitude of pain, disability, and associated symptoms ... -
Direct exposure of the head to solar heat radiation impairs motor-cognitive performance
(2020)Health and performance impairments provoked by thermal stress are societal challenges geographically spreading and intensifying with global warming. Yet, science may be underestimating the true impact, since no study has ... -
Effect of a simulated heat wave on physiological strain and labour productivity
(2021)Background: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of a simulated heat-wave on the labour productivity and physiological strain experienced by workers. Methods: Seven males were confined for ten days in controlled ... -
Evidence for age-related differences in heat acclimatisation responsiveness
(2020)New Findings: What is the central question of this study? Repeated heat exposure during the summer months can enhance heat loss in humans (seasonal heat acclimatisation), but does the magnitude of that enhancement differ ... -

Exercise-heat tolerance in middle-aged-to-older men with type 2 diabetes
(2021)[No abstract available] -
A free software to predict heat strain according to the ISO 7933:2018
(2019)Our primary objective in this study was to design and implement the FAME Lab PHS Calculator software (PHSFL) (www.famelab.gr/research/downloads), a free tool to calculate the predicted heat strain of an individual based ... -
Heart rate variability during high heat stress: A comparison between young and older adults with and without type 2 diabetes
(2016)We examined whether older individuals with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) experience differences in heart rate variability (HRV) during a 3-hour exposure to high heat stress compared to young adults. Young (YOUNG; n=22; ... -
Heart rate variability dynamics during treatment for exertional heat strain when immediate response is not possible
(2019)New Findings: What is the central question of this study? Does a delay in cold water immersion treatment affect the cardiac autonomic control of exertionally heat-strained individuals? What is the main finding and its ... -
Heat exhaustion
(2018)Heat exhaustion is part of a spectrum of heat-related illnesses that can affect all individuals, although children, older adults, and those with chronic disease are particularly vulnerable due to their impaired ability to ... -
Heat Tolerance and Occupational Heat Exposure Limits in Older Men with and without Type 2 Diabetes or Hypertension
(2021)Purpose To mitigate rises in core temperature >1°C, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends upper limits for heat stress (action limit values [ALV]), defined by wet-bulb globe ... -
Heat tolerance and the validity of occupational heat exposure limits in women during moderate-intensity work
(2022)To mitigate excessive rises in core temperature (>1◦C) in non-heat acclimatized workers, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) provides heat stress limits (Action Limit Values; ALV), ... -
Human white-fat thermogenesis: Experimental and meta-analytic findings
(2021)White adipose tissue (WAT) thermogenic activity may play a role in whole-body energy balance and two of its main regulators are thought to be environmental temperature (Tenv) and exercise. Low Tenv may increase uncoupling ... -
Impact of pre-cooling therapy on the physical performance and functional capacity of multiple sclerosis patients: A systematic review
(2019)Patients with multiple sclerosis experience many complications that gradually lead them to comorbidity and disability. Exercise could prevent and ameliorate the symptoms that comorbidity or inactivity generate. However, ... -
The impacts of sun exposure on worker physiology and cognition: Multi-country evidence and interventions
(2021)Background: A set of four case-control (n = 109), randomized-controlled (n = 7), cross-sectional (n = 78), and intervention (n = 47) studies was conducted across three countries to investigate the effects of sun exposure ... -
In vivo effectiveness of injectable antibiotics on the recovery of acute actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae-infected pigs
(2019)The aim of this trial was to evaluate the in vivo effectiveness of injectable antibiotics of one-or two-dose administration on recovery of acute App (Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae)-infected pigs. Ninety pigs with moderate ... -
Indicators to assess physiological heat strain–Part 2: Delphi exercise
(2022)In a series of three companion papers published in this Journal, we identify and validate the available thermal stress indicators (TSIs). In this second paper of the series, we identified the criteria to consider when ... -
Indicators to assess physiological heat strain–Part 3: Multi-country field evaluation and consensus recommendations
(2022)In a series of three companion papers published in this Journal, we identify and validate the available thermal stress indicators (TSIs). In this third paper, we conducted field experiments across nine countries to evaluate ... -
Microcirculation-mediated preconditioning and intracellular hypothermia
(2018)Microcirculation is a network of perfused capillaries that connects macrocirculation with the cells. Although research has provided insight into microcirculatory blood flow, our knowledge remains limited. In this article, ...
