TL;DR: The data showed the relatively simple beat-by-beat sequence method to yield spontaneous baroreflex response slopes that were quantitatively similar to, and highly correlated with, barore Flex response slopes calculated by spectral analysis methods.

TL;DR: The main sections of the paper discuss the changes induced by long-term dry immersion in the neuromuscular and sensorimotor systems, fluid–electrolyte regulation, the cardiovascular system, metabolism, blood and immunity, respiration, and thermoregulation.

TL;DR: The finding of sodium gain without weight gain is in contradiction to the widely accepted theory that changes in TBS levels are accompanied by changes in extracellular volume, and suggests the existence of a sodium reservoir with the ability to store significant amounts of sodium in an osmotically inactive form.

TL;DR: 7 days of HDBR resulted in reduced sympathetic activity, insulin resistance suggested at the muscle level in men and at both the muscle and liver levels in women, and no changes in glucose biodisponibility, suggesting no alterations in the gastrointestinal function, which suggest gender differences in response to sedentary life style.

TL;DR: This work shows that the WC effect is associated with an enhanced BP response to standing and mental stress; these three situations are characterized by an increased BPV in the low frequencies, suggesting a similar modification of the sympathovagal balance.
