In human muscle the role of myoglobin (Mb) and its relationship to factors such as muscle perfusion and metabolic capacity are not well understood. We utilized nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to simultaneously study the Mb concentration ([Mb]), perfusion, and metabolic characteristics in calf muscles of athletes trained long term for either sprint or endurance running after plantar flexion exercise and cuff ischemia. The acquisitions for [sup.1]H assessment of Mb desaturation and concentration, arterial spin labeling measurement of muscle perfusion, and [sup.31]p spectroscopy to monitor high-energy phosphate metabolites were interleaved in a 4-T magnet. The endurance-trained runners had a significantly elevated [Mb] (0.28 [+ or -] 0.06 vs. 0.20 [+ or -] 0.03 mmol/kg). The time constant of creatine rephosphorylation ([tau]PCr), an indicator of oxidative capacity, was both shorter in the endurance-trained group (34 [+ or -] 6 vs. 64 [+ or -] 20 s) and negatively correlated with [Mb] across all subjects (r = 0.58). The time to reach maximal perfusion after cuff release was also both shorter in the endurance-trained group (306 [+ or -] 74 vs. 560 [+ or -] 240 s) and negatively correlated with [Mb] (r = 0.56). Finally, Mb reoxygenation rate tended to be higher in the endurance-trained group and was positively correlated with [tau]PCr (r = 0.75). In summary, these NMR data reveal that [Mb] is increased in human muscle with a high oxidative capacity and a highly responsive vasculature, and the rate at which Mb resaturates is well correlated with the rephosphorylation rate of Cr, each of which support a teleological role for Mb in [O.sub.2] transport within highly oxidative human skeletal muscle. postexercise hyperemia; skeletal muscle; perfusion; oxygenation; phosphocreatine

- Abstract
Effects of acute thermal exposures on appetite appear hypothetical in reason of very heterogeneous methodologies. The aim of this study was therefore to clearly define the effects of passive 24-h cold (16°C) and heat (32°C) exposures on appetitive responses compared with a thermoneutral condition (24°C). Twenty-three healthy, young and active male participants realised three sessions (from 13.00) in a laboratory conceived like an apartment dressed with the same outfit (Clo = 1). Three meals composed of three or four cold or warm dishes were served ad libitum to assess energy intake (EI). Leeds Food Preference Questionnaires were used before each meal to assess food reward. Subjective appetite was regularly assessed, and levels of appetitive hormones (acylated ghrelin, glucagon-like peptite-1, leptin and peptide YY) were assessed before and after the last meal (lunch). Contrary to the literature, total EI was not modified by cold or heat exposure ( P = 0·120). Accordingly, hunger scores ( P = 0·554) were not altered. Levels of acylated ghrelin and leptin were marginally higher during the 16 ( P = 0·032) and 32°C ( P < 0·023) sessions, respectively. Interestingly, implicit wanting for cold and low-fat foods at 32°C and for warm and high-fat foods at 16°C were increased during the whole exposure ( P < 0·024). Moreover, cold entrées were more consumed at 32°C ( P < 0·062) and warm main dishes more consumed at 16°C ( P < 0·025). Thus, passive cold and hot exposures had limited effects on appetite, and it seems that offering some choice based on food temperature may help individuals to express their specific food preferences and maintain EI.

- Abstract
Introduction: Limiting body mass loss during military expeditions/training in the cold by providing rations containing easy-to-use, highly palatable, and familiar foods is feasible, but the bulk/weight is too high to be realistically used in a military context. We carried out an analysis of lighter rations adapted to cold weather (1,011 g, 15.7 MJ/3750 kcal) during a 20-day expedition in Greenland., Methods: Ten French soldiers daily reported all foods and beverages consumed, the reasons they did not consume certain foods, the palatability of each consumed food, the timing of intake, and the sensation of hunger using a diary., Results: Although energy intake increased in the 3rd week (vs 1st week; p = 0.015), it was insufficient to prevent the loss of body mass (-4.2 ± 1.9 kg, p = 0.002). More extensive analyses showed that 1) energy intake increased only during dinner (p = 0.024) and that hunger levels continued to increase before dinner (p = 0.029), 2) palatability increased during the 3rd week (vs 1st week) especially for savory day foods (p< 0.001), and 3) lack of hunger and lack of appeal (33 % each) were the main reasons for not consuming certain items., Conclusion: Soldiers placed in total autonomy during a 20-day expedition in the cold and provided rations that were slightly undersized but adapted for cold conditions, surprisingly, remained picky, leading to large losses of body mass. Our results suggest a margin for improvement to stimulate spontaneous food intake. For example, more energy-dense and savory foods during the day and the replacement of certain disliked items., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare vastus lateralis (VL) and rectus femoris (RF) muscles for their nervous and mechanical adaptations during two bouts of downhill walking (DW) with load carriage performed 2 wk apart. Moreover, we investigated cardiometabolic and perceived exertion responses during both DW bouts., Methods: Seventeen participants performed two 45-min sessions of loaded DW (30% of body mass; slope, -25%; speed, 4.5 km·h -1 ) separated by 2 wk. Rating of perceived exertion, cost of walking, heart rate, and EMG activity of thigh muscles were assessed during the DW. Muscle shear elastic modulus ( μ ) of RF and VL were assessed before each exercise bout. Maximal voluntary contraction torque was assessed before (PRE), immediately after (POST), and 24 and 48 h after the two exercise bouts., Results: Maximal voluntary contraction torque decreased from POST (-23.7% ± 9.2%) to 48 h (-19.2% ± 11.9%) after the first exercise (Ex1), whereas it was significantly reduced only at POST (-14.6% ± 11.0%) after the second exercise (Ex2; P < 0.001). Rating of perceived exertion (Ex1: 12.3 ± 1.9; Ex2: 10.8 ± 2.0), heart rate (Ex1: 156 ± 23 bpm; Ex2: 145 ± 25 bpm), cost of walking (Ex1: 4.5 ± 0.9 J·m -1 ·kg -1 ; Ex2: 4.1 ± 0.7 J·m -1 ·kg -1 ), and RF EMG activity (Ex1: 0.071 ± 0.028 mV; Ex2: 0.041 ± 0.014 mV) were significantly decreased during Ex2 compared with Ex1 ( P < 0.01). RF μ was significantly greater in Ex2 (0.44 ± 0.18) compared with Ex1 (0.56 ± 0.27; P < 0.001)., Conclusions: The RF muscle displayed specific mechanical and nervous adaptations to repeated DW bouts as compared with VL. Moreover, the muscle adaptations conferred by the first bout of DW could have induced greater exercise efficiency, inducing lesser perceived exertion and cardiometabolic demand when the same exercise was repeated 2 wk later., (Copyright © 2023 by the American College of Sports Medicine.)

- Abstract
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the electrically evoked muscle responses are differently affected over time by the knee joint angle after an exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). We hypothesized that low-frequency-evoked responses would be less affected at long than short muscle length, and that mechanisms located within the muscle and tendinous tissues would be involved., Methods: Fifteen males performed 45 min loaded downhill walking (DW) exercise. Maximal voluntary contraction torque (MVC), optimal angle for torque production, voluntary activation level (VAL), twitch, doublet at 10 and 100 Hz (Db10 and Db100, respectively), rate of torque development (RTD), post-activation potentiation (PAP), muscle shear elastic modulus (µ) and aponeurosis stiffness were assessed before, after, and 4, 24, 48, 72 and 168 h after the exercise at a knee angle of 40°, 90° and 120° (0°: full extension)., Results: MVC, VAL and Db100 were similarly decreased across joint angles after the DW and optimal angle was not affected. Twitch, Db10, Db10/Db100, PAP and RTD were less affected and muscle µ more increased at long than short muscle lengths (p < 0.05), especially during the first 24 h after the DW exercise., Conclusion: Low-frequency-evoked responses were more preserved at long than short muscle length the first 24 h after the DW exercise, suggesting that joint angle should be taken into account to assess muscular alterations after EIMD. This length-dependence could be associated to the higher sensitivity to Ca
2+ and the higher increase in muscle stiffness at long than short muscle length., (© 2023. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.)- Published

- Abstract
The neuromuscular system can quickly adapt to exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), such that it is less affected by subsequent damaging exercise, a phenomenon known as the repeated bout effect (RBE). Circulating muscle-specific microRNAs (myomiRs) may be able to potentially predict the long-lasting maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque deficit (>24 h), an indicator of EIMD. We aimed to investigate: 1 ) how plasma myomiR levels are modified by the RBE and 2 ) whether plasma myomiRs can predict the long-lasting MVC torque deficit. Nineteen participants performed two identical bouts of loaded downhill walking separated by 2 wk. MVC torque, creatine kinase (CK) activity, myoglobin (Mb) concentration, and myomiR levels were measured before and up to 48 h after exercise. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were performed to assess the ability of these markers to predict the largest MVC torque loss beyond 24 h postexercise. Similar to MVC torque, CK activity, and the Mb concentration, the relative abundance of certain myomiRs (hsa-miR-1-3p, and hsa-miR-133a-3p) was less affected after the second bout of exercise relative to the first bout. The CK activity, Mb concentration, and level of several myomiRs (hsa-miR-1-3p, hsa-miR-133a-3p, and hsa-miR-206) correlated with long-lasting MVC torque loss. Multiple regression showed that the best combination of markers to predict the long-lasting deficit of MVC torque included several myomiRs, Mb, and CK. Certain myomiR levels increased less after exercise bout 2 than after exercise bout 1 , indicating the presence of the RBE. The measurement of myomiR levels in combination with Mb concentrations and CK activity could improve the prediction of the long-lasting MVC torque deficit. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The present study is the first to show that plasma muscle-specific microRNA (myomiR) levels can be modified by the repeated bout effect, as their levels increased less after the second exercise bout relative to the first. This study is also the first to suggest that myomiR levels could be used to partially predict maximal voluntary contraction torque loss at 24 h postexercise (i.e., the magnitude of exercise-induced muscle damage). Interestingly, the combined measurement of certain myomiR levels with those of myoglobin and creatine kinase improved the predictive value.

- Abstract
Background: The neuromuscular system is able to quickly adapt to exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), such that it is less affected by subsequent damaging exercise, a phenomenon known as the repeated bout effect (RBE). The objective was to determine whether the mechanical properties of the quadriceps, as evaluated by shear wave elastography (SWE), were less affected when a second bout of eccentric-biased exercise was performed 2 weeks later. It was hypothesized that the first bout would confer protection against extensive muscle damage through an adaptation of the muscle stiffness before the second bout (i.e., higher muscle stiffness). Methods: Sixteen males performed two identical bouts of downhill walking separated by 2 weeks (45 min at 4.5 km.h
-1 ; gradient: 25%; load: 30% of the body mass). Rectus femoris (RF) and vastus lateralis (VL) resting shear elastic modulus (µ) and EIMD symptoms were measured before and up to 7 days following the exercise bouts. Changes in neuromuscular function was evaluated by maximal voluntary contraction torque, voluntary activation level, evoked mechanical response to single and double (10 and 100 Hz doublets) electrical stimulation. An index of protection (IP) was calculated for EIMD symptoms to assess magnitude the RBE. Results: EIMD symptoms were less affected after the second than the first exercise bout. RF and VL-µ increased ( p < 0.001) only after the first exercise. RF µ was elevated up to 2 weeks after the end of the first exercise ( p < 0.001) whereas VL µ was only increased up to 24 h. The increase in µ observed 2 weeks after the end of the first exercise was correlated with the IP; i.e., attenuation of alterations in muscle µ, 10 Hz-doublet amplitude and rate of torque development after the second exercise bout ( p < 0.05). Conclusion: We showed that muscle µ assessed by SWE was sensitive to the RBE, with a differential effect between VL and RF. The persistent increase in µ was associated with the attenuation of neuromuscular impairments observed after the second bout, suggesting that the increased muscle stiffness could be a "protective" adaptation making muscles more resistant to the mechanical strain associated to eccentric contractions., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2022 Chalchat, Siracusa, Bourrilhon, Charlot, Martin and Garcia-Vicencio.)- Published

- Abstract
Background: A food and fluid intake program is essential for ultraendurance athletes to maximize performance and avoid possible gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS). However, the ability to follow such a program during a race has been under-assessed. We thus investigated the fluctuations of food and fluid intake during the 24-h run World Championship of 12 elite athletes (6 men and 6 women; age: 46 ± 7 years, height: 170 ± 9 cm, weight: 61.1 ± 9.6 kg, total distance run: 193-272 km) and assessed their ability to follow their nutritional program., Methods: Real-time overall intake (fluids, energy, and macronutrients) was recorded and compared to that of their program. The temporal difference in absolute values and the degree of divergence from their program were assessed, divided into four 6-h periods. GIS were recorded during the race. A questionnaire identifying the details of their nutritional program and the self-assessed causes of their inability to follow it was completed by the participants the day after the race., Results: Water, total fluid, carbohydrates (CHO), and energy intake decreased during the last quarter of the 24-h ultramarathon relative to the first half ( p = 0.024, 0.022, 0.009, and 0.042). However, the differences were no longer significant after these values were normalized by the number of passages in front of the supply tent. The participants progressively failed to follow their nutritional program, with the intake of their planned items dropping to approximately 50% during the last quarter. However, this was adequately compensated by increases in unplanned foods allowing them to match their expected targets. GIS, lack of appeal of the planned items, and attractivity of unplanned items were the main explanations given for their deviation from the program (64, 27, and 27%, respectively)., Conclusion: Despite evident difficulty in following their nutritional programs (mostly attributed to GIS), elite ultraendurance runners managed to maintain high rates of fluid and food intake during a 24-h ultramarathon and therefore still met their planned elevated nutritional objectives. Abbreviations: CHO: carbohydrates, GIS: gastrointestinal symptoms., Competing Interests: No potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s)., (© 2022 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Ultra-endurance sports are growing in popularity but can be associated with adverse health effects, such as exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), which can lead to exertional rhabdomyolysis. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) may be useful to approach the degree of EIMD. We aimed to (1) investigate the relevance of circulating miRNAs as biomarkers of muscle damage and (2) examine the acute response of skeletal/cardiac muscle and kidney biomarkers to a 24-h run in elite athletes. Eleven elite athletes participated in the 24-h run World Championships. Counter-movement jump (CMJ), creatine kinase (CK), myoglobin (Mb), creatinine (Cr), high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), and muscle-specific miRNA (myomiR) levels were measured before, immediately after, and 24 and 48h after the race. CMJ height was reduced immediately after the race (-84.0 ± 25.2%, p < 0.001) and remained low at 24 h (-43.6 ± 20.4%, p = 0.002). We observed high CK activity (53 239 ± 63 608 U/L, p < 0.001) immediately after the race, and it remained elevated 24h after (p < 0.01). Circulating myomiR levels (miR-1-3p, miR-133a-3p, miR-133b, miR-208a-3p, miR-208b-3p, and miR-499a-5p) were elevated immediately after the 24-h run (fold changes: 18-124,723, p<0.001) and significantly (p < 0.05) correlated or tended to significantly (p < 0.07) correlate with the reduction in CMJ height at 24 h. We found no significant correlation between CMJ height loss at 24 h and CK (p = 0.23) or Mb (p = 0.41) values. All elite ultramarathon runners included in our study were diagnosed with exertional rhabdomyolysis after the 24-h ultramarathon race. MyomiR levels may be useful to approach the degree of muscle damage., (© 2021 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

- Abstract
Soldiers on military expeditions usually fail to compensate for the increase in energy expenditure, with potential deleterious consequences. We therefore analyzed the characteristics of energy compensation in 12 male soldiers, during a 15-day expedition in the cold, while alleviating some of the contextual limitations of food intake (~20-MJ daily bags of easy-to-use, highly palatable and familiar foods with multiple and long breaks allowed during the day). Body and fat mass losses were low and moderate, respectively (-1.13 ± 1.42% and -19.5 ± 15.6%, respectively, p < .021). Mean energy intake (EI) was high (~16.3 MJ) and increased at each third of the expedition (15.3 ± 2.1, 16.1 ± 2.1, and 17.6 ± 2.0 for D1-5, D6-10 and D11-15, respectively, p < .012). This resulted in reaching a neutral energy balance as soon as the D6 to 10 period and reaching normal energy availability during D11 to 15. Participants only increased their EI during the mid-day (10:00-14:00) period (p = .002) whereas hunger and thirst only increased in the morning, with higher scores during D11-15 than D1-5 (p < .009). Last, the reward value of sweet foods was also higher during D11-15 than during D1-5 (p = .026). The changes in body mass were positively associated with EI (r = 0.598, p = .040) and carbohydrate intake (r = 0.622, p = .031). This study indicates that complete energy compensation can be reached in challenging field conditions when food intake is facilitated, offering some guidelines to limit energy deficit during operational missions., (© 2021 The Authors.

- Abstract
This study investigated whether four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) moderated caffeine effects on vigilance and performance in a double-blind and crossover total sleep deprivation (TSD) protocol in 37 subjects. In caffeine (2 × 2.5 mg/kg/24 h) or placebo-controlled condition, subjects performed a psychomotor vigilance test (PVT) and reported sleepiness every six hours (Karolinska sleepiness scale (KSS)) during TSD. EEG was also analyzed during the 09:15 PVT. Carriers of the TNF-α SNP A allele appear to be more sensitive than homozygote G/G genotype to an attenuating effect of caffeine on PVT lapses during sleep deprivation only because they seem more degraded, but they do not perform better as a result. The A allele carriers of COMT were also more degraded and sensitive to caffeine than G/G genotype after 20 h of sleep deprivation, but not after 26 and 32 h. Regarding PVT reaction time, ADORA2A influences the TSD effect but not caffeine, and PER3 modulates only the caffeine effect. Higher EEG theta activity related to sleep deprivation was observed in mutated TNF-α, PER3, and COMT carriers, in the placebo condition particularly. In conclusion, there are genetic influences on neurobehavioral impairments related to TSD that appear to be attenuated by caffeine administration. (NCT03859882).

- Abstract
We assessed energy compensation, appetite, and reward value of foods during a 14-day military expedition in Greenland realized by 12 male French soldiers, during which energy compensation was optimized by providing them with easy-to-eat palatable foods in excess. Although daily energy expenditure (estimated by accelerometry) stayed relatively constant throughout the expedition (15 ± 9 MJ·day
-1 ), energy intake (EI; estimated by self-reported diaries) was 17% higher during the D8-D14 period compared with the D1-D7 period, leading to a neutral energy balance (EB). Body fat mass (BFM) significantly decreased (-1.0 ± 0.7 kg, p < 0.001) but not body mass (BM). Neither hunger scores (assessed by visual analog scales) nor components of the reward value of food (explicit liking (EL) and food preference) were significantly altered. However, changes in EL at D10 were positively correlated with changes in BM ( r = 0.600, p < 0.05) and BFM ( r = 0.680, p < 0.05) and changes in hunger in the EI of the relevant period ( r = 0.743, p < 0.01 for D1-D7, r = 0.652, p < 0.05 for D8-14). This study shows that the negative EB and BM loss can be attenuated by an appropriate food supply and that subjective components of eating behaviour, such as hunger and EL, may be useful to predict the magnitude of energy compensation. Novelty Energy intake increases during of a 14-day expedition in the cold. Energy compensation was likely facilitated by providing participants with easy-to-eat palatable and familiar foods. Hunger scores and EL for energy-dense foods were associated with high EIs and low BM changes.- Published

- Abstract
Background: Properly replacing energy and fluids is a challenge for 24-h ultramarathoners because such unusually high intake may induce adverse effects (gastrointestinal symptoms [GIS] and exercise-associated hyponatremia [EAH]). We analyzed such intake for 12 twelve elite athletes (6 males and 6 females; age: 46 ± 7 years, height: 170 ± 9 cm, weight: 61.1 ± 9.6 kg, total distance run: 193-272 km) during the 2019 24-h World Championships and compared it to the latest nutritional recommendations described by the International Society of Sports Nutrition in 2019. We hypothesized that these elite athletes would easily comply these recommendations without exhibiting detrimental adverse symptoms., Methods: Ad libitum food and fluid intake was recorded in real-time and energy, macronutrient, sodium, and caffeine intake then calculated using a spreadsheet in which the nutritional composition of each item was previously recorded. GIS, markers of dehydration (body mass modifications, plasma and urine osmolality, and plasma volume; samples obtained 26 h before and just after the race) and EAH (plasma and urine sodium concentrations) were also assessed., Results: Fluid, energy, and carbohydrate intake of the 11 finishers was 16.4 ± 6.9 L, 35.1 ± 15.7 MJ, and 1.49 ± 0.71 kg, respectively. Individual analyses showed that all but one (for fluid intake) or two (for energy and carbohydrate intake) consumed more than the minimum recommendations. The calculated energy balance remained, however, largely negative (- 29.5 ± 16.1 MJ). Such unusually high intake was not accompanied by detrimental GIS (recorded in 75%, but only transiently [3.0 ± 0.9 h]) or EAH (0%). The athletes were not dehydrated, shown by the absence of significant body mass loss (- 0.92 ± 2.13%) and modifications of plasma osmolality and an increase in plasma volume (+ 19.5 ± 15.8%). Performance (distance ran) positively correlated with energy intake (ρ = 0.674, p = 0.023) and negatively (ρ = - 0.776, p = 0.005) with fluid intake., Conclusions: Overall, almost all of these elite 24-h ultramarathoners surpassed the nutritional recommendations without encountering significant or the usual adverse effects.

- Abstract
We investigated the in vivo effects of voluntary fatiguing isometric contractions of the knee extensor muscles on the viscoelastic properties of the vastus lateralis (VL). Twelve young males (29.0 ± 4.5 years) performed an intermittent voluntary fatigue protocol consisting of 6 sets × 10 repetitions of 5-s voluntary maximal isometric contractions with 5-s passive recovery periods between repetitions. Voluntary and evoked torque were assessed before, immediately after, and 20 min after exercise. The shear modulus (μ) of the VL muscle was estimated at rest and during a ramped isometric contraction using a conventional elastography technique. An index of active muscle stiffness was then calculated (slope from the relationship between shear modulus and absolute torque). Resting muscle viscosity (η) was quantified using a shear-wave spectroscopy sequence to measure the shear-wave dispersion. Voluntary and evoked torque decreased by ∼37% ( P < 0.01) immediately after exercise. The resting VL μ was lower at the end of the fatigue protocol (-57.9 ± 5.4%, P < 0.001), whereas the resting VL η increased (179.0 ± 123%, P < 0.01). The active muscle stiffness index also decreased with fatigue ( P < 0.05). By 20 min post-fatigue, there were no significant differences from the pre-exercise values for VL η and the active muscle stiffness index, contrary to the resting VL μ. We show that the VL μ is greatly reduced and η greatly enhanced by fatigue, reflecting a more compliant and viscous muscle. The quantification of both shear μ and η moduli in vivo may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanical behavior of muscles during fatigue in sports medicine, as well as in clinical situations., (Copyright © 2020 Chalchat, Gennisson, Peñailillo, Oger, Malgoyre, Charlot, Bourrilhon, Siracusa and Garcia-Vicencio.)

- Abstract
Objective: Exercise training has been shown to improve learning and memory, and to protect against the negative impact of sleep deprivation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of seven weeks of moderate- and high-intensity interval exercise training on vigilance/sustained attention, inhibition processes and working memory during 40-h total sleep deprivation (TSD) in 16 healthy young men., Methods: The subjects were evaluated before (Baseline, BAS) and during TSD, and the day after a night of recovery sleep (Recovery, REC)., Results: Exercise training significantly decreased errors and increased speed assessed by the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) during TSD and REC while no difference was found in executive inhibition (Go-noGo task) and working memory (2-Back task) performances. The multiple sleep latency test results were higher during BAS and REC at Post-exercise training, and no difference occurred in subjective sleepiness and daytime microsleeps over the 40-h TSD. The PVT speed was positively correlated with maximal oxygen consumption and maximal aerobic power measured before entry in the in-laboratory TSD protocol, and stage 3 sleep duration measured during the first night in the in-laboratory TSD protocol (N-1). Exercise training effects on sleep were found during the night recovery with lower stage-3 sleep and higher rapid eye movement (REM) sleep durations. An exercise training effect was also found on free insulin-like growth factor I levels with lower levels during TSD at Post-exercise training., Conclusions: In healthy young men, exercise training reduced sleep pressure at baseline and protected against sustained attention deficits induced by TSD with persistent effect after one night of recovery sleep. Nevertheless, exercise training was not effective in reducing deficits in executive inhibition and working memory induced by TSD., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Background: Pole vault is a highly demanding sport where many physical and technical requirements are engaged in performance process. Considering level of energy transferred from athlete's horizontal speed to the pole during pole bending, we can imagine that associated musculoskeletal tensions, in addition to trials accumulation, can increase the risk of (specific) injuries. Given the multiple morphological, physical and technical characteristics of vaulters and ways of pole vaulting, we can hypothesis that some patterns of pole vaults can lead to higher injury risk than others. Aim: To analyze the potential association between the biomechanical patterns of pole vault and the history of injuries. Method: We conducted a study over national-level pole vaulters including the prospective collection of pole vault biomechanical data during competition at the national elite indoor championship and youth national indoor championship (U17 and U20), associated with the retrospective collection of their injuries during the 12 preceding months through an online questionnaire. Results: Among the 88 pole vaulters participating in these championships, 62 (70.5%) accepted to participated in this study, and their pole vault biomechanical and injury data were collected. 77.4% reported having presented at least one injury during the 12 preceding months. One biomechanical parameter related to the take-off phase (lower H2, i.e., height of the grip (superior) hand from the ground when the athlete subsequently took off from the ground) and some biomechanical parameters related to the terminal phase of the run-up phase (higher Spd [i.e., speed between 10 and 5 meters to the box), SL
adj (last stride adjustment), SLvar (stride length variation), tc (contact time)] were significantly associated with higher proportions of all injuries. Conclusion: Biomechanical pole vault patterns during the competition day were associated with a higher proportion of history of all injuries. Although the injury data collection was retrospective leading to recall bias risk, and do not allow determining cause-consequence relationships regarding biomechanical patterns and injury occurrence, this present study is the first to analyze potential association between the biomechanical pole vault patterns and injury occurrence, which is of great help to provide hypotheses/ideas to design future studies and to move forward into prevention measures., (Copyright © 2019 Edouard, Sanchez, Bourrilhon, Homo, Frère and Cassirame.)- Published

- Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the time course of the resting vastus lateralis (VL) muscle shear elastic modulus (μ) measured with ultrasound shear-wave elastography during repetition of isometric maximal voluntary contractions (MVCs) of the knee extensors (KE). Fifteen well-trained young males repeated 60 5-s isometric MVCs. Evoked electrical stimulations and the VLμ were measured every ten MVCs at rest. The resting VLμ significantly decreased (-34.7 ± 6.7%; P < 0.001) by the end of the fatigue protocol. There was also a 38.4 ± 12.6 % decrease in MVC after exercise ( P < 0.001). The potentiated doublet and single twitch torque amplitudes and properties were significantly modified by the end of exercise ( P < 0.001). This study shows the time course of the resting VLμ during the repetition of maximal voluntary fatiguing exercise of the KE muscles. The decrease of the resting VLμ could directly affect the force transmission capabilities accounting for peripheral fatigue.

- Abstract
The Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire (LFPQ) assesses, among other components, food preference (FP) using a procedure that requires both time and concentration. Its use may therefore be difficult in a complex protocol. In this article, we assessed the suitability of two shorter versions: 1) the LFPQ-S
2 , using two instead of four foods per group, and 2) the food preference questionnaire (FPQ-S16 ), using the 16 same foods as the LFPQ, displayed simultaneously, that have to be ranked in order of preference. We assessed the reliability of these short versions using correlations and interchangeability (Bland and Altman) analyses. Sixty-nine healthy French adults completed the original LFPQ using foods adapted to the French context, and then the FPQ-S16 procedure before (hungry state) and after (satiated state) a classic lunch. Finally, they had to select the two foods that best depict the characteristics of each group. The two foods receiving the most votes were used to calculate FP scores with the LFPQ-S2 procedure. The FP scores were no different between the three questionnaires and were modified similarly by lunch intake. The FP scores also highly correlated between the two short versions and the LFPQ (mean r = 0.83 and 0.88 in the hungry state and r = 0.86 and 0.87 in the satiated state for LFPQ-S2 and FPQ-S16 , respectively). Finally, the FPQ-S16 was considered to be a better surrogate of the LFPQ than the LFPQ-S2 . Scores of specific categories (groups of foods categorized by one property; e.g. high-fat foods) showed modest-to-good agreement, whereas scores of combined categories (groups of foods categorized by combined properties, e.g. high-fat and sweet foods) showed poor-to-modest agreement. Overall, the two short versions of the LFPQ could replace it to assess FP in a protocol in which time is limited. The FPQ-S16 appears to be a better solution than the LFPQ-S2 , based on interchangeability analyses., (Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)- Published

- Abstract
Objective: The purpose of strategic air medical evacuation (STRAT AE) is to enable the continuity of care and repatriation of wounded soldiers. Between 2001 and 2014, STRAT AEs have been implemented many times over the course of the military engagement in Afghanistan. The purpose of this work was to study the nature of the pathologies and the medicalization of patients most seriously wounded during the PAMIR Operation (Afghanistan)., Methods: This was an epidemiological study conducted retrospectively from January 1, 2001, to December 31, 2014, of the STRAT AEs with the air medical team from the Afghan operating room to France. Data were collected from air evacuation medical records., Results: Between 2001 and 2014, 109 patients underwent STRAT AEs for a traumatic pathology originating from a battle injury. According to the categorization of Standardization Agreement 3204, 57% of the wounded were priority 1, whereas 43% were priority 2 and 80% showed high dependency (level 1 or 2). Seventy-two percent of evacuations were individual, and 28% were performed in groups. The air medical team was enhanced by a critical care anesthesiologist in 85% of the cases. No deaths occurred in-flight., Conclusion: The French experience in Afghanistan was marked by performing mostly individual STRAT AEs among wounded warriors requiring extensive medicalization., (Copyright © 2017 Air Medical Journal Associates.

Malle, Carine, Benoît Ginon, and Cyprien Bourrilhon. Brief working memory and physiological monitoring during a high-altitude expedition. High Alt Med Biol. 17:359-364, 2016.-Background: Various studies have shown the deleterious effects of high-altitude hypoxia on cognitive functions, including attention and memory. Since optimal cognitive abilities may be crucial for mountain safety, this study was aimed to assess the relevance of a brief working memory test to quickly assess cognition at high altitude., Methods: A set of physiological and cognitive measurements were collected from four professional climbers at various time points during the course of an expedition to Shishapangma (8043 m)., Results: Progressive high-altitude exposure induced a classical physiological response (i.e., decreased SpO
2 and increased heart rate). Except for the final ascent, no participants suffered from acute mountain sickness and perceived exertion remained low. With the exception of an increased number of night awakenings, reported sleep quality was good. No working memory decline was observed in any of the participants, even at the highest altitudes., Conclusion: Altogether, these findings show that the participants were properly acclimatized to altitude. They also highlight the technical feasibility of assessing cognitive functions all along high-altitude expeditions. The direct access of such tools on a smartphone may improve mountain climbing safety.- Published

- Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of six nights of sleep extension on motor performance and associated neuromuscular function before and after one night of total sleep deprivation (TSD)., Methods: Twelve healthy men participated in two experimental conditions (randomized crossover design): extended sleep (EXT, 9.8 ± 0.1 h time in bed) and habitual sleep (HAB, 8.2 ± 0.1 h time in bed). In each condition, subjects performed six nights of either EXT or HAB at home followed by an assessment of motor performance and neuromuscular function at baseline (D0) and after one night of TSD, i.e., 34-37 h of continuous wakefulness (D1). Maximal voluntary contractions with superimposed femoral nerve electrical and transcranial magnetic stimulations and stimulations on relaxed muscles were investigated before and after submaximal isometric knee extensor exercises performed until task failure., Results: Time to exhaustion was longer in EXT compared with HAB (+3.9% ± 7.7% and +8.1% ± 12.3% at D0 and D1, respectively). Performance at D1 decreased from D0 similarly between conditions (-7.2% ± 5.6% and -3.7% ± 7.3% in HAB and EXT, respectively). At D1, the RPE during exercise was lower in EXT compared with HAB (-7.2% ± 7.5%) with no difference at D0. No difference was observed in voluntary activation between the two conditions., Conclusions: Six nights of sleep extension improved sustained contraction time to exhaustion, and this result cannot be explained by smaller reductions in voluntary activation, measured by both nerve and transcranial magnetic stimulation. The beneficial effect on motor performance in the EXT condition was likely due to reduced RPE after TSD.

- Abstract
Chronic sleep restriction (CSR) induces neurobehavioral deficits in young and healthy people with a morning failure of sustained attention process. Testing both the kinetic of failure and recovery of different cognitive processes (i.e., attention, executive) under CSR and their potential links with subject's capacities (stay awake, baseline performance, age) and with some biological markers of stress and anabolism would be useful in order to understand the role of sleep debt on human behavior. Twelve healthy subjects spent 14 days in laboratory with 2 baseline days (B1 and B2, 8 h TIB) followed by 7 days of sleep restriction (SR1-SR7, 4 h TIB), 3 sleep recovery days (R1-R3, 8 h TIB) and two more ones 8 days later (R12-R13). Subjective sleepiness (KSS), maintenance of wakefulness latencies (MWT) were evaluated four times a day (10:00, 12:00 a.m. and 2:00, 4:00 p.m.) and cognitive tests were realized at morning (8:30 a.m.) and evening (6:30 p.m.) sessions during B2, SR1, SR4, SR7, R2, R3 and R13. Saliva (B2, SR7, R2, R13) and blood (B1, SR6, R1, R12) samples were collected in the morning. Cognitive processes were differently impaired and recovered with a more rapid kinetic for sustained attention process. Besides, a significant time of day effect was only evidenced for sustained attention failures that seemed to be related to subject's age and their morning capacity to stay awake. Executive processes were equally disturbed/recovered during the day and this failure/recovery process seemed to be mainly related to baseline subject's performance and to their capacity to stay awake. Morning concentrations of testosterone, cortisol and α-amylase were significantly decreased at SR6-SR7, but were either and respectively early (R1), tardily (after R2) and not at all (R13) recovered. All these results suggest a differential deleterious and restorative effect of CSR on cognition through biological changes of the stress pathway and subject's capacity (ClinicalTrials-NCT01989741).

- Abstract
Introduction: The emergence of normobaric devices for hypoxia awareness training makes crucial the study of physiological and cognitive effects induced by acute normobaric hypoxia (NH) exposure. Our study aimed to 1) investigate the effects of acute NH exposure on physiological variables and working memory; and 2) investigate the physiological and cognitive effects of oxygen breathing before and after acute NH exposure., Methods: There were 86 healthy men who were randomized into 4 groups: the Normoxia-Air group (N = 23), whose subjects were breathing air; the Hypoxia-Air group (N = 22), where NH exposure was preceded and followed by air breathing; the Normoxia-O₂group (N = 21), whose protocol was similar to the Normoxia-Air group, except with the addition of 100% O₂breathing periods; and the Hypoxia-O₂group (N = 20), whose participants were exposed to 100% O₂before and after NH exposure. Working memory was assessed with the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test. Peripheral oxygen saturation (Spo₂), heart rate (HR), and electroencephalogram (EEG) were recorded., Results: Acute NH exposure induced a classical physiological response (i.e., decreased Spo₂and increased HR), but not identical to the well-described physiological response to acute hypobaric hypoxia. Acute NH also caused a strong impairment in working memory. Oxygen breathing following NH exposure induced a slowing in the EEG associated with a worsening of working memory performance., Discussion: Acute NH exposure revealed a good surrogate for the classical hypobaric chamber for refresher hypoxia awareness training. Because the association between hypoxia and hyperoxia seems deleterious for the brain, we suggest that NH exposure should be surrounded by air breathing.

- Abstract
Background: Sleep loss may induce endothelial dysfunction, a key factor in cardiovascular risk. We examined the endothelial function during one week of sleep restriction and a recovery period (from 3-to-13 days) in healthy subjects, and its link to autonomic, inflammatory and/or endocrine responses., Methods: 12 men were followed at baseline (B1, 8-h sleep), after 2 (SR2) and 6 (SR6) days of SR (4-h sleep: 02:00-06:00) and after 1 (R1) and 12 (R12) recovery nights (8h sleep). At 10:00, we assessed changes in: arm cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC) induced by local application of methacholine (MCh), cathodal current (CIV) and heat (44°C), finger CVC and skin temperature (Tfi) during local cold exposure (5°C, 20-min) and passive recovery (22°C, 20-min). Blood samples were collected at 08:00., Results: Compared with baseline (B1), MCh and heat-induced maximal CVC values (CVC peak) were decreased at SR6 and R1. No effect of SR was observed for Tfi and CVC during immersion whereas these values were lower during passive recovery on SR6 and R1. From SR2 to R12, plasma concentrations of insulin, IGF-1 (total and free) and MCP-1 were significantly increased while those of testosterone and prolactin were decreased. Whole-blood blood mRNA concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β were higher than B1. No changes in noradrenaline concentrations, heart rate and blood pressure were observed., Conclusions: These results demonstrate that SR reduces endothelial-dependent vasodilatation and local tolerance to cold. This endothelial dysfunction is independent of blood pressure and sympathetic activity but associated with inflammatory and metabolic pathway responses (ClinicalTrials-NCT01989741)., (Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Introduction: During an acute hypoxia exposure, impairment of memory is one of the most frequently reported symptoms, either during hypoxia awareness training of aircrews or after an in-flight hypoxic incident. However, the effects of acute hypoxia on memory have been little studied in laboratory-controlled conditions. Moreover, none of these studies were performed in hypobaric conditions. The main aim of our study was to investigate the effects of acute hypobaric hypoxia on working memory (WM). This study also aimed to find links between physiological measurements and cognitive performance during acute hypoxia exposure., Methods: During hypoxia awareness training, 28 subjects (experimental group) were exposed to a simulated altitude level of 10,000 m (31,000 ft) in a hypobaric chamber, while 29 subjects (control group) stayed at sea level. WM was assessed in both groups with the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT). Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate were recorded., Results: WM was strongly impaired in the hypoxic group. One major finding is that hypoxia highly increased the mean error frequency rate. WM performance decreased linearly with hypoxemia, but SpO2 was weakly predictive of PASAT performance and vice versa., Discussion: WM is impaired by acute hypobaric hypoxia. Given the importance of WM in aircraft piloting and its sensitivity to hypoxia, the PASAT, in association with SpO2 and EEG recordings, could improve both hypoxia training and our understanding of the effects of hypoxia on memory.

- Abstract
This study investigated effects of a high protein (PROT) versus a high carbohydrate (CHO) diet on performance and physiological responses during an ultraendurance climbing race at moderate altitude. On two different periods, in a randomised crossover design, ten climbers (30.0+/-0.9 years) participated in the race (duration 29 h approximately, energy expenditure 43.6+/-1.2 MJ.day (-1)) and were fed either with the PROT (30% protein content) or the CHO diet (68% carbohydrate) each providing 16.74 MJ. Mental performance was assessed by the Stroop test and we estimated maximal voluntary strength of quadriceps muscle. We quantified metabolic and hormonal circulating concentrations. Mental performance was unaffected after the two races, while muscular performance and body weight were decreased (both p<0.01) with no diet effects. Decreases were measured for IGF-I concentration and its binding protein IGFBP-3 (p<0.001), and increases for cortisol and norepinephrine (p<0.01) with no diet effects. Glucose concentration decreased (p<0.05) without diet effects, while amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, valine, and tyrosine) decreased in CHO group (p<0.001). Leptin concentration decreased (p<0.001) without diet effects, whereas total ghrelin increased in CHO group (p<0.01). Our results showed that a high PROT or high CHO intake during physical exertion at moderate altitude maintained mental performance, but did not limit muscle force reduction and body weight loss. There was decreased glucose availability, and hormonal responses indicated both catabolism and extreme energy deficiency induced by exercise with opposite responses of ghrelin and leptin. The ghrelin response was additionally indicative of macronutrient intake during the race., (Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart New York.)

- Abstract
Sleep disorders are associated with inflammation and sympathetic activation, which are suspected to induce endothelial dysfunction, a key factor in the increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Less is known about the early effects of acute sleep deprivation on vascular function. We evaluated microvascular reactivity and biological markers of endothelial activation during continuous 40 h of total sleep deprivation (TSD) in 12 healthy men (29 +/- 3 yr). The days before [day 1 (D1)] and during TSD (D3), at 1200 and 1800, endothelium-dependent and -independent cutaneous vascular conductance was assessed by iontophoresis of acetylcholine and sodium nitroprusside, respectively, coupled to laser-Doppler flowmetry. At 0900, 1200, 1500, and 1800, heart rate (HR) and instantaneous blood pressure (BP) were recorded in the supine position. At D1, D3, and the day after one night of sleep recovery (D4), markers of vascular endothelial cell activation, including soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, E-selectin, and interleukin-6 were measured from blood samples at 0800. Compared with D1, plasma levels of E-selectin were raised at D3, whereas intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and interleukin-6 were raised at D4 (P < 0.05). The endothelium-dependent and -independent CVC were significantly decreased after 29 h of TSD (P < 0.05). By contrast, HR, systolic BP, and the normalized low-frequency component of HR variability (0.04-0.15 Hz), a marker of the sympathetic activity, increased significantly within 32 h of TSD (P < 0.05). In conclusion, acute exposure to 40 h of TSD appears to cause vascular dysfunction before the increase in sympathetic activity and systolic BP.

- Abstract
Objective: Accurate reports of energy expenditure (EE) during prolonged mountaineering activity are sparse. The purpose of this study was to estimate EE during a winter ultraendurance climbing race and individual mountaineering activities in Mont Blanc, France., Methods: Seven days before the race, resting metabolic rate (RMR) and maximal oxygen consumption (Vo2(max)) were measured in 10 experienced male climbers (30.0 +/- 0.9 years). Three days before (reference period) and during the race, heart rate (HR) was recorded for estimation of total daily EE (TDEE), and the type and duration of all activities were collected through questionnaires. Total DEE was calculated by adding DEE during sleep (DEE sleep), sedentary (DEE sedentary), and during exercise (DEE exercise). Daily energy expenditure during exercise was determined through assumption of the rectilinear relationship between heart rate (HR) and Vo2. Anthropometric measurements were performed 7 days before, just before, and immediately after the race., Results: Total time of the race averaged approximately 29 hours and 29 minutes, including 11 hours and 24 minutes in the hut, plus 18 hours and 5 minutes dedicated to climbing. During the race, TDEE was 43.6 +/- 1.2 MJ x d(-1). Energy expenditures for cross-country skiing and alpine climbing were similar (57.3 +/- 2.1 kJ x min(-1) and 54.0 +/- 2.9 kJ x min(-1), respectively). An energy deficit of 33.5 +/- 2.3 MJ resulted after the race, with a mean weight loss of 1.52 +/- 0.31 kg (P < .001)., Conclusions: Experienced climbers expended a high level of energy during a winter ultraendurance alpine climbing race at moderate altitude under high degrees of difficulty and risk exposure. These results provide comparative data on the energy cost of the main mountaineering activities during a race: cross-country skiing and alpine climbing.

- Abstract
Assessment of individual susceptibility to altitude illnesses and more particularly to acute mountain sickness (AMS) by means of tests performed in normobaric hypoxia (NH) or in hypobaric hypoxia (HH) is still debated. Eighteen subjects were submitted to HH and NH tests (PIO2=120 hPa, 30 min) before an expedition. Maximal and mean acute mountain sickness scores (AMSmax and mean) were determined using the self-report Lake Louise questionnaire scored daily. Cardio-ventilatory (f, V(T), PetO2 and PetCO2, HR and finger pulse oxymetry SpO2) were measured at times 5 and 30 min of the tests. Arterial (PaO2, PaCO2, pH, SaO2) and capillary haemoglobin (Hb) measurements were performed at times 30 min. Hypoxic ventilatory (HVR) and cardiac (HCR) responses, peripheral O2 blood content (CpO2) were calculated. A significant time effect is found for DeltaSpO2 (P = 0.04). Lower PaCO2 (P = 0.005), SaO2 (P = 0.07) and higher pH (P = 0.02) are observed in HH compared to NH. AMSmax varied from 3 to12 and AMSmean between 0.6 and 3.5. In NH at 30 min, AMSmax is related to PetO2 (R = 0.61, P = 0.03), CpO2 (R = -0.53, P = 0.02) and in HH to CpO2 (R = -0.57, P = 0.01). In NH, AMSmean is related to Deltaf (R = 0.46, P = 0.05), HCR (R = 0.49, P = 0.04), CpO2 (R = -0.51, P = 0.03) and, in HH at 30 min, to V(T) (R = 0.69, P = 0.01) and a tendency for CpO2 (R = -0.43, P = 0.07). We conclude that HH and NH tests are physiologically different and they must last 30 min. CpO2 is an important variable to predict AMS. For practical considerations, NH test is proposed to quantify AMS individual susceptibility using the formulas: AMSmax = 9.47 + 0.104PetO2(hPa)-0.68CpO2 (%), (R = 0.77, P = 0.001); and AMSmean = 3.91 + 0.059Deltaf + 0.438HCR-0.135CpO2 (R = 0.71, P = 0.017).
