Does Hypoxia impair ovarian function in Bolivian women indigenous to high altitude?
(HIGH ALTITUDE MEDICINE & BIOLOGY, 2000)
Abstract.
Fertility appears to be reduced in at least some high altitude populations relative to their counterparts at lower elevations. Inferring from the difficulties with reproduction of newcomers to high altitude and ...
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). ...
Factors influencing the use of biomedical health care by rural Bolivian anemic women : structural barriers, reproductive status, gender roles, and concepts of anemia
(PLOS One, 2017-01-26)
Abstract. The persistently high prevalence of anemia in rural highland Bolivia argues for targeted iron supplementation.
We evaluated the cultural, structural and behavioral factors that may facilitate or impede an
anemic ...
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 ...
