Reduction of aerobic exercise performance observed under hypoxic conditions is mainly
attributed to altered muscle metabolism due to impaired O2 delivery. It has been recently …

Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is commonly associated with pathological conditions, particularly
obstructive sleep apnoea. However, IH is also increasingly used to enhance health and …

The aim was to investigate the effects of low-load resistant training combined with vascular
occlusion or normobaric hypoxic exposure, on neuromuscular function. In a randomised …

Supraspinal fatigue, defined as an exercise-induced decline in force caused by suboptimal
output from the motor cortex, accounts for over one-quarter of the force loss after fatiguing …

This study aimed to evaluate if the changes in oxygen saturation levels at intercostal
muscles (SmO2-m. intercostales) assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) using a …

It is vital to measure muscular fatigue for human–machine interaction (HMI) and avoiding
muscle impairment. This article presents a novel approach to comprehensively evaluate …

This study assessed the intra-individual reliability of oxygen saturation in intercostal muscles
(SmO2-m. intercostales) during an incremental maximal treadmill exercise by using portable …

Ascent to high altitude is accompanied by a reduction in partial pressure of inspired oxygen,
which leads to interconnected adjustments within the neuromuscular system. This review …

It was demonstrated that acute hypoxia increased muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA)
by using a microneurographic method at rest, but its effects on dynamic leg exercise are …

Ultrasound based methods can assess muscle fatigue by penetrating deep muscles and are
not susceptible to electrical noise, but traditional ultrasound probes have bulky size that …
