Ventilation and hypoxic ventilatory response of Tibetan and Aymara high altitude natives
(American Journal Physical Anthropology, 1997)
ABSTRACT.
Newcomers acclimatizing to high altitude and adult male
Tibetan high altitude natives have increased ventilation relative to sea level
natives at sea level. However, Andean and Rocky Mountain high altitude
natives ...
Role of genetic and environmental factors in the increased blood pressures of Bolivian blacks
(American Journal of Human Biology, 1999)
Abstract.
The tendency toward hypertension or higher blood pressure is more common in blacks than whites. The factors that account for these differences are attributed to both environmental and genetic factors. To clarify ...

arterial hemoglobin (SaO2) among healthy individuals at a given high
altitude indicates differences in physiological hypoxemia despite uniform
ambient ...
The effects of smoking on a high altitude population. (La Paz, Bolivia, 3600m or 12,200ft)
(Tobacco and Health, 1990)
Barometric pressure (PB) decreases with increasing a altitude. Since oxygen concentration is about 21% in the air of
the whole atmosphere, its partial pressure is also 21% of PB. At the altitude of La Paz (3600)m or ...
