Does chronic mountain sickness (CMS) have perinatal origins?
(Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2007-06-29)
Abstract.
Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) occurs in 10% of male high-altitude residents. It is characterized by hypoventilation and hypoxemia but its underlying cause remains unknown. We hypothesized that CMS' origins ...
Maternal adaptation to high-altitude pregnancy : an experiment of nature-a review
(Placenta, 2004)
A long and productive history of studies at high altitude has demonstrated that chronic hypoxia plays a key role in the aetiology of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and pre-eclampsia. Susceptibility to altitude-associated ...
Rendimiento de futbolistas profesionales aclimatados y no aclimatados a la altura, a 3600 metros
(PubliCE, 2003-01-05)
Resumen.
Los partidos del Fútbol Europeo son frecuentemente jugados a nivel internacional en regiones montañosas de Sudamérica. En este estudio, fueron medidas las respuestas del ejercicio durante una ergometría en ciclo ...
High-altitude ancestry protects against IUGR and reductions in birth weight associated with high altitude and preeclampsia
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005-02-22)
Background.
Observations consistently demonstrate diminished birth weight [BW] with ascending altitude;
however population comparisons reveal the extent of BW
reduction depends, in part, upon high-altitude ancestry.
...
La ansiedad como factor de riesgo de tabaquismo en estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad Mayor de San Andrés, su prevalencia, incidencia y las alteraciones espirométricas secundarias a grandes alturas (3.600 M.S.N.M.) Estudio bietápico
(Revista Cuadernos, 2016)
RESUMEN.
Introducción.
El tabaquismo es una enfermedad adictiva, con prevalencias elevadas en estudiantes de medicina, en
quienes la ansiedad generada por el modelo académico exigente es un factor de riesgo.
Este es ...
Evidence that parent-of-origin affects birth-weight reductions at high altitude
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2008-02-19)
Abstract.
Hypoxia exerts a profound depressant effect on fetal growth, lowering birth weight, and raising mortality risk. Multigenerational high-altitude populations are relatively protected from this birth-weight decline, ...
Excessive polycythemia occurs in young high-altitude (3600 M) residents in the absence of lung disease
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2002-04-18)
Objective: Chronic Mountain Sickness occurs in , 8% of the La Paz
population. We asked whether its primary diagnostic sign, excessive polycythemia (EP), occurred in youngeraged persons
without lung disease. Methods: ...
Aymara children are protected from high-altitude-induced pulmonary hypertension
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005-02-22)
Pulmonary hypertension is a hallmark of the adaptation to ambient lack of oxygen. This assumption is also
thought to hold true for high-altitude native children,
since invasive studies showed elevated pulmonary-artery
pressure ...

Regression-based prediction of net energy expenditure in children performing activities at high altitude
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2003-01-06)
Abstract.
We developed a simple, non-invasive, and affordable method for estimating net energy expenditure (EE) in children performing activities at high altitude. A regression-based method ...
