MOSCOW, November 21. /tass/. Aaron Gardugno Rodriguez, a Mexican student from the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI), and his supervisor K. Safronova proposed to investigate the relationship between changes in blood sugar levels in astronauts depending on their psycho-emotional state. They presented their idea at the XIV International Scientific and Practical Conference "Manned Space Flights", held at the Cosmonaut Training Center.

"In the current study, it is proposed to focus on the relationship between the psychophysiological state and one of the most important metabolic indicators of the human body: glucose," the researchers noted.

Rodriguez and Safronova recalled that a number of studies indicate a relationship between changes in human blood glucose levels and stress hormones. Due to the release of adrenaline, the glucose content in the blood may be increased.

Now the Institute of Biomedical Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the representatives of MAI added, are conducting studies of the biochemical response of a person to the stress load that he receives from being in the conditions of model microgravity, and to the usual stress load. Participants are measured blood glucose and saliva cortisol.

To determine the relationship between physiological parameters, the usual psychological load and the duration of exposure to model microgravity, an analysis is used, implying the construction of models of connections and the prediction of events. From the point of view of mathematical analysis, there may indeed be a connection, but the sample of results is still limited. "In order to increase the sample, it was decided to conduct a ground experiment using the methodology developed in the "dry" immersion with senior students of the MAI Aerospace Institute," Rodriguez and Safronova concluded.
