Abstract:Introduction:
Optimal neuroendocrine responses, particularly noradrenergic responses, are critical during hypergravity (+ Gz) exposure. Peripheral skin cooling (PSC) has the potential to enhance noradrenergic function, which could improve + Gz resiliency and may also affect leukocyte and hematologic factors. We predicted that PSC would augment cumulative + Gz stress index (CGSI) neuroendocrine, leukocyte and hematologic activity compared to controls, and that CGSI would shift to a noradrenergic dependency in … Show more
