Download or read book Circulatory Response to the Upright Posture written by James J. Smith and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1990-09-24 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only up-to-date systematic review of normal human response to upright posture and lower body negative pressure (LBNP). It analyzes the key factors that influence postural tolerance, such as physical fitness, weightlessness, age, and sex. It also provides extensive details on the circulatory changes that have occurred during U.S. and Soviet manned space flights. The text is brilliantly illustrated with diagrams, tables, and comments on circulatory methods. Readers will discover some information which has never before been published. This one-of-a-kind volume also reviews the diagnosis and treatment of orthostatic hypotension-an extremely common orthostatic disorder. Circulatory Response to the Upright Posture is the first available literature since 1982 of human physiological and pathophysiological aspects of postural tolerance. A wide variety of readers will find this title interesting and of value. Circulatory physiologists, cardiologists, and everyone with an interest in exercise physiology, aging, space physiology, and environmental physiology will especially benefit from this writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A little-known yet critical part of NASA history Life in Space explores the many aspects and outcomes of NASA’s research in life sciences, a little-understood endeavor that has often been overlooked in histories of the space agency. Maura Mackowski details NASA’s work in this field from spectacular promises made during the Reagan era to the major new directions set by George W. Bush’s Vision for Space Exploration in the early twenty-first century. At the first flight of NASA’s space shuttle in 1981, hopes ran high for the shuttle program to achieve its potential of regularly transporting humans, cargo, and scientific experiments between Earth and the International Space Station. Mackowski describes different programs, projects, and policies initiated across NASA centers and headquarters in the following decades to advance research into human safety and habitation, plant and animal biology, and commercial biomaterials. Mackowski illuminates these ventures in fascinating detail by drawing on rare archival sources, oral histories, interviews, and site visits. While highlighting significant achievements and innovations such as space radiation research and the Neurolab Spacelab Mission, Mackowski reveals frustrations—lost opportunities, stagnation, and dead ends—stemming from frequent changes in presidential administrations and policies. For today’s dreams of lunar outposts or long-term spaceflight to become reality, Mackowski argues, a robust program in space life sciences is essential, and the history in this book offers lessons to help prevent leaving more expectations unfulfilled.

Book excerpt: This technical report presents the results from a special physiological study of women performed at the Johnson Space Center in 1976-77. The purpose was to establish a substantially large (98 subjects) normative data base taken from a general population of working women who might be considered representative of future women astronauts. The data sets consist of medical historical, clinical, anthropometric, and stress response determinations and measurements which would be relevant to human space flight and hence helpful in establishing appropriate medical screening criteria (types of tests and their normal values) for selecting women astronauts. The stressors chosen were lower body negative pressure and static standing (both orthostatic) and treadmill exercise (ergometric). Most methods were identical to or similar adaptations of those protocols used in testing Apollo and Skylab program crewmen. Data are provided in two formats: (1) original individual values which are amenable to cross correlations and subsequent analyses in any subsets which might be of interest and (2) statistical summaries and correlations suggested by the variables themselves and by certain questions which concern investigators of the human responses to microgravity. Of notable comment is the very great similarity of many characteristics of the women subjects of this study generated before selection of any American women astronauts and the corresponding characteristics of those women astronauts now regularly flying among Shuttle space crews.
