Maternal oxygen delivery is not related to altitude- and ancestry-associated differences in human fetal growth
(J Physiol, 2007-09-16)
Fetal growth is reduced at high altitude, but the decrease is less among long-resident populations.
We hypothesized that greater maternal uteroplacental O2 delivery would explain increased
fetal growth in Andean natives ...
A genomewide admixture mapping panel for hispanic/latino populations
(The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2007-06)
Admixture mapping (AM) is a promising method for the identification of genetic risk factors for complex traits and
diseases showing prevalence differences among populations. Efficient application of this method requires the ...
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 ...
Índice de resistencia vascular arterial en la madre y el feto durante el embarazo en grandes alturas (3600 m) vs. niveles bajos de altura (300 m)
(Revista de la Sociedad Boliviana de Radiología, 2007)
Resumen.
Objetivo: Determinar los índices de resistencia de las arterias uterinas en las madres, umbilical y cerebral media en los bebés de grandes alturas, en comparación a pacientes que habitan alturas bajas reflejados ...
High-altitude ancestry protects against hypoxia-associated reductions in fetal growth
(Archives of Disease in Childhood-Fetal and Neonatal, 2007-02-28)
Objective: The chronic hypoxia of high-altitude (>2500 m) residence has been shown to decrease birth
weight in all populations studied to date. However, multigenerational high-altitude populations appear
protected relative ...
Greater uterine artery blood flow during pregnancy in multigenerational (Andean) than shorter-term (European) high-altitude residents
(Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol, 2007)
Multigenerational (Andean) compared with shorter-term (European) high-altitude
residents exhibit less hypoxia-associated reductions in birth
weight. Because differences in arterial O2 content are not responsible,
we ...
Determinants of blood oxygenation during pregnancy in Andean and Europeas residents of high altitude
(Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol, 2007-07-02)
High altitude decreases birth weight,
but this effect is diminished in long vs. short-resident, high-altitude
populations. We asked whether women from long vs. short-resident,
high-altitude populations had higher arterial ...
