Introduction.Occupational environment and occupational factors determine peculiarities in mastering marine occupations. Some unfavorable occupational educational and ecologic factors appear to cause high level of physical and psychoemotional stress.Objectiveis to study features of adaptation to study during occupational training in marine specialties in cadets of a higher marine educational institution, and to conduct medical and psychological rehabilitation.Material and methods.Examination covered 120 male cadets of 3rd and 4thyears of study: 70 (main group) and 50 (reference group). The age of the cadets was 21±0.4 years. To study characteristics of the cadets’ adaptation, the authors used psychological methods — Spielberger’s State Trait Anxiety Scale and Nemchin’s «Method measuring severity of neuropsychic stress». Statistical analysis was performed with software «Statistica for Windows 10.0».Study results and discussion.After 3 months of sailing, majority of the cadets appeared to be dysadapted. Deep clinical and laboratory studies proved that 39.4% of the examinees were apparently healthy and 60.6% of those had chronic diseases. Thus, a system of medical psychologic rehabilitation was designed, comprising primary and secondary prophylaxis methods. One of these prevention methods is a recovery complex of measures with intermittent normobaric hypoxia modified by us. The authors determined optimal regime of using intermittent normobaric hypoxia combined with medical rehabilitation.Conclusions.Adaptational state in cadets of high marine educational institution during professional training in marine occupations is characterized by increased psycho-emotional strain, anxiety and observed in 57.3% of the examinees. Findings are that after 3 months of sailing, majority of the cadets are dysadapted. To prevent morbidity and preserve health, the authors suggested a system of medical and psychologic rehabilitation including intermittent normobaric hypoxia with rehabilitation medical complex. The medical and prophylactic measures help to solve problems of psycho-emotional stress, lower morbidity parameters, prevent dysadaptation disorders, relieve functional overstrain. That preserves and improves the cadets’ health and forms an important stage in prevention of mental and behavioral disorders related to work.

The aim of the study was to assess the effect of acute normobaric hypoxia on free plasma amino acids (AA) in volunteers after overnight fasting and in the fed state. Materials and Methods. Group 1 (n=13, aged 22–32) participated in the study in the morning after overnight fasting. Group 2 (n=9, aged 22–32) took part in the study after a light fat-free breakfast. Acute normobaric hypoxia was achieved by breathing a hypoxic gas mixture (9 % O2 and 91 % N2) through a mask. According to the experimental protocol, blood sampling from the cubital vein was performed for analysis. Free plasma amino acids were analyzed using the Aracus amino acid analyzer. Results. Prior to the hypoxia onset, at the 5th and 20th minutes of hypoxia, no statistically significant differences in free AA levels were observed in the groups (p>0.05). At the 10th minute of hypoxia the levels of four AAs (serine, threonine, glutamine, and histidine) were significantly higher in Group 1 than in Group 2 (p<0.05). This was probably due to differences in functioning of several key “harmonizing” AA transporters (ASCT1 (SLC1A4), ASCT2 (SLC1A5) and LAT1 (SC7A5)), for which the AAs were metabolic substrates. It can be assumed, that such changes were caused by currently unclear mechanisms of fast regulation of AA transporter activity, associated with nutritional status. Conclusion. We believe that our findings may be important for providing better adaptation to hypoxia, and for more efficient correction of hypoxic negative effects. Keywords: acute normobaric hypoxia, free plasma amino acids, human. Цель исследования: изучить воздействие острой нормобарической гипоксии на метаболизм свободных аминокислот (АК) плазмы крови у добровольцев, участвовавших в исследовании натощак и после лёгкого завтрака. Материалы и методы. Первая группа добровольцев (22–32 года, n=13) участвовала в исследовании утром натощак, вторая группа (22–32 года, n=9) – через 2–3 ч после лёгкого безжирового завтрака. Гипоксия создавалась путём подачи через маску дыхательной смеси, содержащей 9 % О2 и 91 % N2. В соответствии с протоколом проводился периодический забор крови из локтевой вены для анализа. Оценка уровней свободных АК плазмы крови производилась с помощью аминокислотного анализатора Aracus. Результаты. До начала гипоксии, на 5-й и 20-й мин гипоксии уровни свободных АК в первой и второй группах значимо не различались (p>0,05). На 10-й мин гипоксии между первой и второй группами наблюдались статистически значимые различия уровней четырёх АК: глутамина, серина, треонина и гистидина (p<0,05). Это, вероятно, было обусловлено изменениями в работе «гармонизирующих» мембранных транспортёров (ASCT1 (SLC1A4), ASCT2 (SLC1A5) и LAT1 (SC7A5)), для которых эти АК являются обменными субстратами. Можно предположить, что данные изменения были опосредованы пока неясными механизмами быстрой регуляции активности этих транспортёров, зависящими от питания. Выводы. Мы полагаем, что полученные результаты могут иметь значение для обеспечения адаптации организма человека к острой гипоксии и эффективной коррекции последствий гипоксического воздействия. Ключевые слова: острая нормобарическая гипоксия, свободные аминокислоты плазмы крови, человек.

Sprint interval training (SIT) is a concept that has been shown to enhance aerobic-anaerobic training adaptations and induce larger effects in hypoxia. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 4 weeks of SIT with 15 or 30 s in hypoxia on aerobic, anaerobic performance and critical power (CP). A total of 32 male team players were divided into four groups: SIT with 15 s at FiO2: 0.209 (15 N); FiO2: 0.135 (15 H); SIT with 30 s at FiO2: 0.209 (30 N); and FiO2: 0.135 (30 H). VO2max did not significantly increase, however time-to-exhaustion (TTE) was found to be significantly longer in the post test compared to pre test (p = 0.001) with no difference between groups (p = 0.86). Mean power (MPw.kg) after repeated wingate tests was significantly higher compared to pre training in all groups (p = 0.001) with no difference between groups (p = 0.66). Similarly, CP was increased in all groups with 4 weeks of SIT (p = 0.001) with no difference between groups (p = 0.82). This study showed that 4 weeks of SIT with 15 and 30 s sprint bouts in normoxia or hypoxia did not increased VO2max in trained athletes. However, anerobic performance and CP can be increased with 4 weeks of SIT both in normoxia or hypoxia with 15 or 30 s of sprint durations.

AbstractWe investigated the effects of hypoxia on matched-severe intensity exercise and on the parameters of the power-duration relationship. Fifteen trained subjects performed in both normoxia and normobaric hypoxia (FiO2=0.13, ~3000 m) a maximal incremental test, a 3 min all-out test (3AOT) and a transition from rest to an exercise performed to exhaustion (Tlim) at the same relative intensity (80%∆). Respiratory and pulmonary gas-exchange variables were continuously measured (K5, Cosmed, Italy). Tlim test’s V̇O2 kinetics was calculated using a two-component exponential model. V̇O2max (44.1±5.1 vs. 58.7±6.4 ml.kg-1.min-1, p<0.001) was decreased in hypoxia. In Tlim, time-to-exhaustion sustained was similar (454±130 vs. 484±169 s) despite that V̇O2 kinetics was slower (τ1: 31.1±5.8 vs. 21.6±4.7 s, p<0.001) and the amplitude of the V̇O2 slow component lower (12.4±5.4 vs. 20.2±5.7 ml.kg-1.min-1, p<0.05) in hypoxia. CP was reduced (225±35 vs. 270±49 W, p<0.001) but W’ was unchanged (11.3±2.9 vs. 11.4±2.7 kJ) in hypoxia. The changes in CP/V̇O2max were positively correlated with changes in W’ (r = 0.58, p<0.05). The lower oxygen availability had an impact on aerobic related physiological parameters, but exercise tolerance is similar between hypoxia and normoxia when the relative intensity is matched despite a slower V̇O2 kinetics in hypoxia.

The effects of acute hypoxia on regional pulmonary perfusion have been studied previously in anesthetized, artificially ventilated sheep (J. Appl. Physiol. 56: 338–342, 1984). That study indicated that a rise in pulmonary arterial pressure was associated with a shift of pulmonary blood flow toward dorsal (nondependent) areas of the lung. This study examined the relationship between the pulmonary arterial pressor response and regional pulmonary blood flow in five conscious, standing ewes during 96 h of normobaric hypoxia. The sheep were made hypoxic by N2 dilution in an environmental chamber [arterial O2 tension (PaO2) = 37–42 Torr, arterial CO2 tension (PaCO2) = 25–30 Torr]. Regional pulmonary blood flow was calculated by injecting 15-micron radiolabeled microspheres into the superior vena cava during normoxia and at 24-h intervals of hypoxia. Pulmonary arterial pressure increased from 12 Torr during normoxia to 19–22 Torr throughout hypoxia (alpha less than 0.049). Pulmonary blood flow, expressed as %QCO or ml X min-1 X g-1, did not shift among dorsal and ventral regions during hypoxia (alpha greater than 0.25); nor were there interlobar shifts of blood flow (alpha greater than 0.10). These data suggest that conscious, standing sheep do not demonstrate a shift in pulmonary blood flow during 96 h of normobaric hypoxia even though pulmonary arterial pressure rises 7–10 Torr. We question whether global hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is, by itself, beneficial to the sheep.
