Mathematical algorithm of the cardiorespiratory homeostasis was determined by oxygen demand (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2) during maximal physical loading on the bicycle ergometer; calculated and measured parameters of the physical capacity were compared in experiments with long-term (110- to 240-d) isolation of human subjects. Aerobic capacity was evaluated during incremental physical testing in the sitting position on bicycle Elema-Siemens 380-B. The following parameters were measured: peak (maximal loading) heart rate (HRpeak) and VO2, work time, and VO2 at 15 points on the Borg load scale, total aerobic test time and some others. Analysis of the homeostatic function of the cardiorespiratory system with the integral H = (h(u)du failed to state statistically reliable differences (p > 0.05) before and after isolation in group-1; however, it evidenced an increased homeostatic ability (p < 0.05) in group-2 and a decreased homeostatic ability in group-3 after isolation. Hence, the proposed mathematical algorithm showed a good agreement with the aerobic capacity parameters measured using classic methods. There was a high correlation (p < 0.05) between the homeostatic function and aerobic capacity in the groups of subjects and, therefore, determination of the cardiorespiratory homeostatic function can be considered an additional evaluative criterion.

This study examines the seasonal variations in carbonate system parameters in the East China Sea (ECS) off the Yangtze River estuary (YRE) and analyzes the contributions of anthropogenic CO₂ and eutrophication to acidification. Carbonate parameters data were collected during summer 2019 and combined winter 2011. During winter, acidification is primarily driven by rising atmospheric CO₂, with minimal impact from biological processes.

Patients with generalized myasthenia gravis (MG) often show restrictive spirometry results. Although regular exercise and physical fitness are linked to better respiratory function, there is limited research assessing the effects of aerobic exercise on lung function in MG patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of low-intensity aerobic exercise using a cycle ergometer on lung function parameters in MG patients.

Background: Many adults with intellectual disabilities live a sedentary lifestyle, have low levels of functional fitness and are overweight. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an exercise intervention with activities which are simple, fun, accessible and adapted for socialising in a group would elicit significant improvements in various parameters associated with functional fitness for adults with intellectual disabilities.
Methods: Forty-two adults with intellectual disability (44.

Exogenous glucose oxidation is reduced 55% during aerobic exercise after three days of complete starvation. Whether energy deficits more commonly experienced by athletes and military personnel similarly affect exogenous glucose oxidation and what impact this has on physical performance remains undetermined. This randomized, longitudinal parallel study aimed to assess the effects of varying magnitudes of energy deficit (DEF) on exogenous glucoseoxidation and physical performance compared to energy balance (BAL).

Background: Wheelchair users live predominantly sedentary lifestyles and have a substantially higher risk for cardiometabolic disease and mortality compared to people without disabilities. Exercise training has been found to be effective in improving cardiometabolic health (CMH) outcomes among people without disabilities, but research on wheelchair users is limited and of poor quality.
Objective: The primary aim of this study is to examine the immediate and sustained effects of a 24-week, telehealth, movement-to-music cardiovascular (M2M-C) exercise program on core indicators of CMH among adult wheelchair users compared to an active control group.
