Abstract

Long-term spaceflight poses significant challenges to astronauts' physical and mental health, resulting in physiological issues such as osteoporosis, muscle atrophy, and cardiovascular dysfunction, as well as psychological problems like depression, anxiety, social withdrawal, and cognitive decline. As the duration of space missions continues to increase, the above challenges cannot be ignored. Therefore, identifying effective regulatory measures is essential. This article provides a concise review of the latest domestic and international research on strategies to mitigate physiological and psychological risks in aerospace environment. Including coping strategies for musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and psychological problems, such as exercise, physical stimulation, psychotherapy, and medication, especially traditional Chinese medicine, which need to be further explored and applied. Its ultimate goal is to offer insights for ensuring the safe execution of space missions by astronauts and advancing the field of space medicine.

减轻航空航天环境对身心健康影响的管制措施：系统审查

长期太空飞行对宇航员的身心健康构成了重大挑战，导致骨质疏松、肌肉萎缩、心血管功能障碍等生理问题，以及抑郁、焦虑、社交退缩和认知能力下降等心理问题。随着航天任务持续时间的不断增加，上述挑战不容忽视。因此，确定有效的监管措施至关重要。本文简要综述了国内外在降低航天环境中生理和心理风险策略方面的最新研究进展。包括肌肉骨骼、心血管和心理问题的应对策略，如运动、身体刺激、心理治疗和药物治疗，特别是中医，这些都需要进一步探索和应用。其最终目标是为确保宇航员安全执行太空任务和推进太空医学领域提供见解。
