AN UPDATE TO A COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE METHODS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF RESISTANCE TRAINING IN NORMOBARIC HYPOXIA FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRENGTH AND MUSCULAR HYPERTROPHY

An Update to a Comprehensive Assessment of the Methods and Effectiveness of Resistance Training in Normobaric Hypoxia for the Development of Strength and Muscular Hypertrophy

Background.Training muscle capacities in hypoxic conditions increases some manifestations, such as hypertrophy and muscle strength, due to a change in the muscle phenotype as a result of the activation of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF).Despite the proven benefits of resistance training in hypoxic conditions that allow conjecture regarding the effe

Complex Membrane Channel Blockade: A Unifying Hypothesis for the Prodromal and Acute Neuropsychiatric Sequelae Resulting from Exposure to the Antimalarial Drug Mefloquine

The alkaloid toxin quinine and its derivative compounds have been used for many centuries as effective medications for the prevention and treatment of malaria.More recently, synthetic derivatives, such as the quinoline derivative mefloquine (bis(trifluoromethyl)-(2-piperidyl)-4-quinolinemethanol), have been widely used to combat disease caused by c
