Clinical trials: Physiological Strain
Body Temperature Changes, Heat Stress
Exercise Intensity and Heat Responses in Children and Youth
Little is known about how children and youth regulate body temperature during exercise in the heat compared with young adults, including whether differences in whole-body heat exchange contribute to their responses.

Physiological Changes in Deliberate Apnea
Evaluating the Influence of Apnea on Cardiac Function Using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Former studies revealed a distinct pattern of changes in circulation during deliberate apnea. Blood pressure rises significantly often accompanied by bradycardia.
