  1. O'Leary DD, Hughson RL, Shoemaker JK, Greaves DK, Watenpaugh DE, Macias BR, Hargens AR. Heterogeneity of responses to orthostatic stress in homozygous twins. J Appl Physiol. 2006 Sep 28; [Epub ahead of print] (HSR&T PI: A.R. Hargens) Note: From Discussion: "The current data [referring to this paper and other papers], therefore, indicate that such malleability of orthostatic tolerance in healthy individuals undergoing bed rest or space flight is less influenced by genetics than other predispositions to adaptation."
