Influence of the thigh cuffs countermeasure on the cardiovascular adaptation to 0.g (14 and 21 day Mir spaceflights).
Assess the 0.g induced cardiac and vascular changes at rest on two cosmonauts:  one using thigh cuffs from flight day 1 to 8 (Mir 14d flight) the second one not using thigh cuffs (Mir 21d flight).  Both were not using intensively any other countermeasure.  The ultrasound device onboard Mir with Echo, Doppler, and TM, modes was used.
