 | The impact of smoking on exercise performance of female soldiers is of interest to the military. Objectives: To study in female soldiers: (a) the chronic/acute effects of smoking on aerobic/anaerobic performance during lower/ upper body exercise, (b) the aerobic/anaerobic capacity for lower/upper body exercise and to correlate these values with the Army physical fitness test (APFT). Methods: Healthy female soldiers, 12 smokers, after abstaining from smoking (COHb < 2%) and ... |

|
 | A spectrum of exercise induced complications including sudden unexpected death has been reported in individuals with sickle cell trait (SCT). The etiology of these results and the role that sickling may play remain uncertain. We have previously demonstrated comparable human performance to short periods of exhaustive exercise without discernible clinical differences between SCT and controls at 127 meters, at stimulated 2300 meters and after seven weeks of army basic training ... |

|
 | The possible health hazards for persons with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) when engaged in strenuous exercise and/or environmental hypoxia is not fully defined. During Phase I and II (Annual Reports No. 1, 1985 and No. 2, 1986) of our Sickle Cell Trait research studies, no significant differences were found in the physiological response and exercise performance to acute strenuous exercise at 1,270 m and at simulated altitude of 2,300 m. ... |

|
 | Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) is a heterozygous state characterized by hemoglobin AS and occurs in 7-9% of American Blacks. Individuals with SCT are assymptomatic and their SCT is generally regarded as a benign condition under normal physiologic conditions. Environmental hypoxia and strenuous exercise have been implicated either alone or in combination in a spectrum of multisystem medical complications reported to occur in some individuals with SCT. Although the relationship between ... |

|
 | Controversy persists regarding the risks assumed by individuals with SCT while engaged in activities that would involve a greater likelihood of exposure to hypoxic environments and other stress situations such as performing strenuous exercise especially at altitude. The present study was designed to evaluate the role of a hypoxic stimulus (simulated altitude of 2300m) on the interactions of Hemoglobin S (%HbS), sickling (%S), and acute strenuous physical exertion in SCT ... |

|
 | Although generally regarded as a benign condition, controversy persists over the question of whether individuals with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) are at greater risk for sudden unexplained death (SUD) and other medical complications resulting from strenuous exercise, especially at altitude. In order to establish whether physiologic changs associated with strenuous exercise at altitude (namely hypoxia, dehydration, and acidosis) may individually or in combination adversely affect similarly engages individuals with SCT, ... |
