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 ... -
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), ... -
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, ... -
On the use of wearable physiological monitors to assess heat strain during occupational heat stress
(2018)Workers in many industries are required to perform arduous work in high heat-stress conditions, which can lead to rapid increases in body temperature that elevate the risk of heat-related illness and even death. Traditionally, ... -
The physical demands of electrical utilities work in North America
(2016)We assessed the physical demands associated with electrical utilities work in North America and how they influence the level of thermal and cardiovascular strain experienced. Three common job categories were monitored as ... -
Prediction of large vessel occlusions in acute stroke: National institute of health stroke scale is hard to beat
(2016)Objectives: Endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke with a large vessel occlusion was recently shown to be effective. We aimed to develop a score capable of predicting large vessel occlusion eligible for endovascular ... -
Revisiting the influence of individual factors on heat exchange during exercise in dry heat using direct calorimetry
(2019)New Findings: What is the central question of this study? The aim was to identify the greatest contributor(s) to the variation in whole-body heat exchange, as assessed using direct calorimetry, among young men and women ... -
Separate and combined effects of cold dialysis and intradialytic exercise on the thermoregulatory responses of hemodialysis patients: a randomized-cross-over study
(2020)Background: The separate and combined effects of intradialytic exercise training (IET) and cold dialysis (CD) on patient thermoregulation remain unknown. This study assessed the thermoregulatory responses of hemodialysis ... -
Sinus Bradycardia during Targeted Temperature Management: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2020)The beneficial effect of sinus bradycardia during targeted temperature management (TTM) in cardiac arrest patients remains doubtful. We aimed to investigate the impact of sinus bradycardia on survival and neurological ...
