Menstrual cycle phase alters corticospinal excitability and spike-timing-dependent plasticity in healthy females

This study examines how menstrual cycle phases affect corticospinal excitability and spike-timing-dependent plasticity in healthy females, finding phase-specific changes in excitability and plasticity responses.

Sex differences in the cardiopulmonary and neuromuscular response to high-intensity interval exercise

This study examines sex differences in cardiopulmonary and neuromuscular responses to high-intensity interval exercise, finding greater hyperpnoea in females during early intervals and lesser decreases in contractile function post-exercise.
