Background Alterations in motor control systems is an inevitable consequence of space flights any duration. After the flight, crew-members have significant difficulties with maintaining upright balance and locomotion, which last several days following landing. At same time, specific mechanisms these effects remain unclear. Objectives The aim study was to assess long-term flight on postural define changes sensory organization caused by microgravity. Methods 33 cosmonauts Russian Space Agency,...

Long-duration astronauts (>4 months on the International Space Station, 87 total person-missions) participated in an orthostatic test consisting of 2 minutes prone rest followed by 3.5 standing preflight, within hours landing first day recovery (R+0), and 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 days after landing. Astronauts cosmonauts performed exercise during spaceflight fluid loading before to mitigate cardiovascular deconditioning. On R+0, testing without compression garments or while wearing 1 3 designed...

Isolation and long duration spaceflight are associated with musculoskeletal deconditioning. Mars500 was a unique, high-fidelity analogue of the psychological challenges 520-day manned mission to Mars. We aimed explore effect deconditioning on three outcome measures: (1) if lower limb muscle strength reduced during isolation; (2) type I or II fibres were differentially affected; (3) whether any 70-day exercise interventions prevented isolation-induced loss strength.Six healthy male subjects...

This article describes procedures and some results of the first study females undergoing 3-day Dry Immersion. The experiment “NAIAD-2020” was carried out at Institute Biomedical Problems (Moscow, Russia) with participation six healthy women volunteers (age 30.17 ± 5.5 years, height 1.66 0.1 m, weight 62.05 8.4 kg, BMI 22.39 2.2 kg/m 2 ) a natural menstrual cycle. During study, standard protocol used, same as for men, minimum period time spent outside immersion bath. Before, during after...

A joint NASA and Institute of Biomedical Problems (IBMP) study, designated as the Field Test, was designed to investigate how immediate post-flight effects long duration spaceflight impact performance on vestibular sensorimotor-related functional tasks. One unique feature this study use tests typically associated with everyday living track recovery. These tasks are also expected crewmembers during recovery operations include sit-to-stand prone-to-stand transitions, translating objects,...

As female astronauts participate in space flight more and frequently, there is a demand for research on how the body adapts to microgravity environment. In particular, very little neuromuscular system reacts gravitational unloading women. We aimed estimate changes motor evoked potentials (MEPs) lower leg muscles women after 3-day exposure Dry Immersion (DI), which one of most widely used ground models microgravity. Six healthy volunteers (mean age 30.17 ± 5.5 years) with natural menstrual...
