This study used both PortaMon & PortaLite to examine how hypoxemia (anemia+hypoxia) affects brain & muscle oxygenation in women during max exercise.
🟡 Anemic women experienced greater reductions in VO₂max, peak power output & cerebral oxygenation
🔵 Skeletal muscle failed to increase O₂ utilization at maximal effort
🟡 The cardiovascular system was unable to fully compensate, resulting in exercise intolerance

What happens in your brain and muscles when sprinting under pressure, especially in the heat?
Di Domenico et al. explored this by tracking cerebral and muscular oxygenation during repeated treadmill sprints in hot conditions. Using the PortaMon and PortaLite, they captured how both brain and muscle respond to physical and thermal strain.

🌟 Join us this month as we explore the full potential of (f)NIRS in revealing the complete picture of oxygenation across the body, deepening our understanding of brain-muscle connectivity🧠💪

Begin with our introductory blog, outlining the application areas where simultaneous brain #fNIRS & muscle #NIRS measurements are most frequently used. It highlights key studies across categories & shows our optimal setups for combined measurements.

Our #fNIRS devices are built not just for precision, but for comfort. That’s why researchers around the world trust Artinis when working with toddlers & children.

🟡 Li et al. studied brain activity in children with autism during drawing tasks
🔵 Bulgarelli et al. explored social interaction in toddlers using fNIRS and VR
🟡 Kastritseas et al. used our technology to compare muscle and brain oxygenation in boys and men

When it comes to comfort, our wearable devices are in a league of their own. Researchers have used them to #monitor sleep in adults and infants alike.

🟡 Gosse et al. successfully combined EEG and #fNIRS on sleeping infants
🔵 Liang et al. assessed adult sleep quality with ease
🟡 Hakimi et al. classified #neonatal sleep states
🔵 Cao et al. evaluated fNIRS to be reliable for sleep monitoring
