Total lung capacity in young highlanders of Aymara ancestry
(American Journal of Physical Anthroplogy, 1994)
ABSTRACT.
Total lung capacity (TLC) and its components, including residual volume (RV) and vital capacity (VC), are described in a sample of 164 male and 143 female youths of Aymara ancestry (10.0-19.9 years) who were ...
Efectos del acullico de coca en la prueba de tolerancia a la glucosa
(Medicina, 1997)
Resumen.
Fueron determinados los efectos de la coca, durante el curso de la tolerancia a la glucosa; en 14 sujetos que mascaron coca durante 3 horas y media y en 14 sujetos que no mascaron coca. Ambos grupos son de población ...
Developmental, genetic, and environmental components of aerobic capacity at high altitude
(American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1995)
Abstract.
The aerobic capacity of 268 subjects (158 males and 110 females) was evaluated in La Paz, Bolivia situated at 3,750 m. The sample included 1) 39 high altitude rural natives (all male); 2) 67 high altitude urban ...
Influence of coca chewing on hematological and cardiorespiratory responses to submaximal exercise
([s.n.], 1996)
Summary.
The cardiovascular effects of cocaine are relatively well known but little information is available concerning those of coca chewing. The present study was undertaken to determine the hematological and cardiovascular ...
Effect of chronic hypoxia and socioeconomic status on VO2 max and anaerobic power of bolivian boys
(American Physiological Society, 1993)
Abstract.
The aim of this work was to analyze the effects of altitude and socioeconomic and nutritional status on maximal oxygen uptake (Vo₂max) and anaerobic power (P) in 11-yr-old Bolivian boys. At both high (HA) (3,600 ...
Estudio comparativo de la función respiratoria en niños bolivianos de la altura y del trópico. Influencia del estado nutricional y antropométrico
(Cuadernos, 1995)
RESUMEN.
Nuestro propósito tiene una doble finalidad, en primer lugar hacer un análisis de los factores que contribuyen en la función respiratoria de niños expuestos a diferentes ambientes ecológicos, altura y trópico ...
Coca chewing for exercise : hormonal and metabolic responses of nonhabitual chewers
(Journal of Applied Physiology, 1996)
Abstract.
To determine the effects of acute coca use on the hormonal and metabolic responses to exercise, 12 healthy nonhabitual coca users were submitted twice to steady-state exercise (∼75% maximal O2 uptake). On one ...
Lactate and epinephrine during exercise in altitude natives
(American Physiological Society, 1996)
Abstract.
We tested the hypothesis that the reported low blood lactate accumulation ([La]) during exercise in altitude-native humans is refractory to hypoxianormoxia transitions by investigating whether acute changes in ...
Maximal exercise performance in chronic hypoxia and acute normoxia in high-altitude natives
(J. Appl. Physiol., 1995)
Maximal O₂ uptake (VO₂max) was determined on a bicycle ergometer in chronic hipoxia (CH) and during acute exposure to normoxia (AN) in 50 healthy Young men who were born and had lived at 3,600 m altitude (La Paz, Bolivia). ...
Differential effects of ventilatory stimulation by sex hormones and almitrine on hypoxic erythrocytosis
(Pflugers Arch-Eur J Physiol, 1997)
Abstract.
In the absence of pulmonary disease, hypoventilation is considered to be the primary cause of
Chronic Mountain Sickness, and there is some reason to
believe that chronic administration of respiratory analeptics ...
