Theoretical analysis of the mechanisms of a gender differentiation in the propensity for orthostatic intolerance after spaceflightRichard L Summers
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Mississippi Medical Center, Jackson, Mississippi 39216, USA
Theor Biol Med Model 7:8. 2010..The mechanisms responsible for this gender differentiation are poorly understood despite many detailed and complex investigations directed toward an analysis of the physiologic control systems involved...

NASA Johnson Space Center, Human Adaptations and Countermeasures Division, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 80:437-42. 2009....
Cardiovascular adaptations to long-duration head-down bed restSteven H Platts
NASA Johnson Space Center, Mail Code SK, 2101 NASA Parkway, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 80:A29-36. 2009..Numerous cardiovascular mechanisms have been proposed to account for this problem, including vascular and cardiac dysfunction, which we studied during bed rest...
Metabolic consequences of garments worn to protect against post-spaceflight orthostatic intoleranceStuart M C Lee
Wyle Integrated Science and Engineering Group, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 82:648-53. 2011....
Effects of promethazine and midodrine on orthostatic toleranceShang Jin Shi
National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 82:9-12. 2011..Many astronauts need both midodrine and promethazine. This study evaluated the interactive effects of midodrine and promethazine on hemodynamic responses to upright tilt...

Cardiovascular Laboratory, Wyle Integrated Science and Engineering Group, Houston, TX, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 81:52-63. 2010..Further refinement of protocols and countermeasure hardware may be necessary to insure the success of countermeasures in the unique environment of space...
Artificial gravity training reduces bed rest-induced cardiovascular deconditioningMichael B Stenger
Cardiovascular Laboratory, Wyle Integrated Science and Engineering Group, NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Eur J Appl Physiol 112:605-16. 2012..Mechanisms of improvement were not cardiac-mediated, but likely through improved sympathetic responsiveness to orthostatic stress...
Hemodynamic effects of midodrine after spaceflight in astronauts without orthostatic hypotensionSteven H Platts
Universities Space Research Association, Houston, TX, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 77:429-33. 2006..Among these subjects, midodrine was a safe cardiovascular countermeasure...
Gradient compression garments as a countermeasure to post-spaceflight orthostatic intoleranceMichael B Stenger
Integrated Science and Engineering Group, NASA Johnson Space Center, 1290 Hercules Drive, Houston, TX 77058, USA
Aviat Space Environ Med 81:883-7. 2010..The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of commercially available, thigh-high, gradient compression garments to prevent post-spaceflight orthostatic intolerance...
