Call for papers: "Cardiovascular regulation during exercise: role of biological sex and consequences of aging".

The American Journal of Physiology: Regulatory, Integrative & Comparative Physiology has issued a call for papers on the topic of cardiovascular regulation during exercise, specifically focusing on the role of biological sex and the consequences of aging. The editors are seeking original research, short reports, and reviews that explore areas such as autonomic control of circulation, skeletal muscle, cerebral and cardiac blood flow, cardiac regulation, hemodynamic regulation, and thermal challenges. The aim is to better understand the sex-specific differences in cardiovascular responses to exercise and how they change throughout the lifespan. The call also emphasizes the need to consider the effects of aging, age-related diseases, and medications commonly prescribed to older adults on cardiovascular regulation during exercise. The editors encourage researchers to refer to recently published guidelines on the use of sex and gender in cardiovascular research. [Extracted from the article]
