| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We designed three experiments to investigate the linkage among respiration, circulation and thermoregulation during combined cold and hypoxic exposures. First, combined cold intermittent hypoxic (IH) exposures in ventilatory responses with normal temperature (34deg) and low temperature (11deg) was designed. At 34deg, IH induced long-term facilitation of ventilation (vLTF) was remarkable observed during isocapnic condition. A significantly reduction in body temperature at 11deg was related to the augmented VE during isocapnic IH (p<0.01). Secondly, we investigated effect of repeated cold exposure to depressed hypoxic ventilatory decline (HVD) and the secretion of noradrenalin (NAd). Repeated cold stimulus promoted the secretion of NAd, HVD was significantly depressed compared to 1st hypoxia. Third, we investigated that the characteristics of athlete in vLFT during the IH exposure. The athlete showed a significantly greater vLTF compared to the untrained individuals.
