To examine whether effect PM2.5 varies by domain, we employ measuring simple attention, complex arithmetic processing speed, working memory, and fluid reasoning. Exploiting plausibly exogenous variation matter—which easily penetrates indoor settings—across 54 lab sessions over 3-year period with 464 students, find evidence suggesting that high levels reduces reasoning test.

Antarctica challenges human explorers by its extreme environment. The effects of these unique conditions on the physiology need to be understood best mitigate health problems in Antarctic expedition crews. Moreover, is an adequate Earth-bound analogue for long-term space missions. To date, have been studied mainly male cohorts though more female expeditioners and applicants astronaut training programs are selected. Therefore, identification sex differences stress immune reactions becoming even essential aim provide a individualized risk management. Ten 16 subjects participated three 1-year expeditions German Research Station Neumayer III. Blood, saliva, urine samples were taken 1–2 months prior departure, subsequently every month during their expedition, 3–4 after return from Antarctica. Analyses included cortisol, catecholamine endocannabinoid measurements; psychological evaluation; differential blood count; recall antigen- mitogen-stimulated cytokine profiles. Cortisol showed significantly higher concentrations females than males winter whereas no enhanced was detected both sexes. Catecholamine excretion but never significant increases compared baseline. Endocannabinoids N-acylethanolamides increased sexes stayed consistently elevated confinement. Cytokine profiles vitro stimulation revealed resulted time-dependent changes. Hemoglobin hematocrit females, hemoglobin Platelet counts males. Leukocytes granulocyte confinement with dip lymphocytes environment seems trigger some distinct responses but—with exception cortisol cell counts—without any major relevant sex-specific differences.

Males and females differ anatomically functionally in cardiorespiratory regulation, with males tending to experience greater oxygen desaturation under hypoxia. Therefore, sex might moderate responses acute hypoxia exposure. Accordingly, we hypothesized that differences cardiovascular ventilatory would be more pronounced equal duration (iso-time) but less at similar levels (iso-saturation).
