Cold-induced vasodilation during sequential immersions of the hand
A common practice for those operating in cold environments includes repetitive glove doffing and donning to perform specific tasks, which creates a...

Influence of acute beetroot juice supplementation on cold-induced vasodilation and fingertip rewarming
PurposeVasoactive ingredients in beetroot (BR) such as nitrate are known to induce vasodilation in temperate conditions. This study investigated the...

Impact of thermal sensation on exercise performance in the heat: a Thermo Tokyo sub-study
PurposeThermal perception, including thermal sensation (TS), influences exercise performance in the heat. TS is a widely used measure and we examined...

Repeated cold stress, an animal model for fibromyalgia, elicits proprioceptor-induced chronic pain with microglial activation in mice
BackgroundFibromyalgia is characterized by chronic pain, fatigue, and other somatic symptoms. We have recently revealed that proprioceptor...

Effect of repeated post-resistance exercise cold or hot water immersion on in-season inflammatory responses in academy rugby players: a randomised controlled cross-over design
PurposeUncertainty exists if post-resistance exercise hydrotherapy attenuates chronic inflammatory and hormone responses. The effects of repeated...
-
Repeated cold-water immersion improves autonomic cardiac modulation following five sessions of high-intensity interval exercise
PurposeThe study aimed to investigate the effect of repeated cold-water immersion (CWI) after high-intensity interval exercise sessions on...

No effect of repeated post-resistance exercise cold or hot water immersion on in-season body composition and performance responses in academy rugby players: a randomised controlled cross-over design
PurposeFollowing resistance exercise, uncertainty exists as to whether the regular application of cold water immersion attenuates lean muscle mass...
-
Effects of alternating heat and cold stimulation using a wearable thermo-device on subjective and objective shoulder stiffness
BackgroundTechnological innovations have allowed the use of miniature apparatus that can easily control and program heat and cold stimulations using...
