The ketone bodies acetoacetate (AcAc) and β-hydroxybutyrate (βHB) have pleiotropic
effects in multiple organs including brain, heart, and skeletal muscle by serving as an …

Acute hypobaric hypoxia (HH) is a major physiological threat during high-altitude flight and
operations. In military aviation, although hypoxia-related fatalities are rare, incidences are …

The aim of the present study was to analyze the impact of surgical mask use in cognitive and
psychophysiological response of university students during a lesson. We analyzed 50 …

Acute moderate intensity exercise has been shown to improve cognitive performance. In
contrast, hypoxia is believed to impair cognitive performance. The detrimental effects of …

Recovery of cognitive and physiological responses following a hypoxic exposure may not be
considered in various operational and research settings. Understanding recovery profiles …

Introduction Both sleep deprivation and hypoxia have been shown to impair executive
function. Conversely, moderate intensity exercise is known to improve executive function. In …

High-altitude (HA) exposure affects cognitive functions, but studies have found inconsistent
results. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effects of HA exposure on …

Acute cardiovascular physical exercise improves cognitive performance, as evidenced by a
reduction in reaction time (RT). However, the mechanistic understanding of how this occurs …

We tested the hypothesis that ingestion of cocoa flavanols would improve cognition during
acute hypoxia equivalent to 5,500 m altitude (partial pressure of end-tidal oxygen= 45 …

Military pilots risk their lives during training and operations. Advancements in aerospace
engineering, flight profiles, and mission demands may require the pilot to test the safe limits …
