Applying ischemic preconditioning prior to endurance training improves hematological profile and performance in long-distance runnersNARA Subscribed
Purpose Ιschemic preconditioning is well-accepted to improve exercise capacity and performance. The purpose of this study was to examine whether ischemic preconditioning performed prior to endurance training in a long-term fashion enhances physiological adaptations and performance. Methods Sixteen male distance runners (age: 34.1 ± 5.1 yrs, VO 2 max: 55.0 ± 2.0 ml/kg/min) participated in the study. Training consisted of two hi...
Cardiorespiratory and oxygenation responses in iron-deficient anemic women during whole-body exercise under moderate hypoxiaNARA Subscribed
Purpose Integrated physiological responses during maximal whole-body exercise, such as cycling, under additive hypoxemia (anemia + hypoxia) are not adequately studied. Therefore, we investigated cardiovascular, muscular and cerebral oxygenation responses in chronic mildly iron-deficient and control women under normoxic and moderate hypoxic conditions during maximal whole-body exercise. Methods In a randomized and counterbalanc...
Common, low-frequency, rare, and ultra-rare coding variants contribute to COVID-19 severityNARA Subscribed
The combined impact of common and rare exonic variants in COVID-19 host genetics is currently insufficiently understood. Here, common and rare variants from whole-exome sequencing data of about 4000 SARS-CoV-2-positive individuals were used to define an interpretable machine-learning model for predicting COVID-19 severity. First, variants were converted into separate sets of Boolean features, depending on the absence or the pr...
Assessment of Building Vulnerability to Tsunami Hazard in Kamari (Santorini Island, Greece)OA Marine
Santorini Island, located in the Southern Aegean Sea, is prone to tsunamis due to its proximity to the Hellenic subduction zone, which is one of the major tsunamigenic areas. Characteristic events, such as those of 365 A.D. and 1303 A.D. greatly affected the coasts of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, causing significant loss of life and construction damage. Tsunami disaster risk is nowadays significantly higher due to the increa...
