Dietary intake and physical activity of Bolivian schollboys at high altitude
(Masson, 1992)
A population of about 50 schoolboys from 10-12 years old living in the city of La Paz - Bolivia at an
altitude between 3600 and 4100 m are studied. Food consumption and physical activity is measured by 24-hours interviews. ...
Physical fitness of children resident at high altitude in Bolivia
(Int. J. Sports Med., 1992)
Abstract.
1) Maximal oxygen consumption (VO₂max) varies from 35 to 45 ml . min-1 . kg-1 and maximal heart rate from I88 to 194 beats . min-1. These values are lower than those of their counterparts at low altitude (LA) ...
Muscle tissue adaptations of high-altitude natives to training in chronic hypoxia or acute normoxia
(American Physiological Society, 1996)
Abstract.
Twenty healthy high-altitude natives, residents of La Paz, Bolivia (3,600 m), participated in 6 wk of endurance exercise training on bicycle ergometers, 5 times/wk, 30 min/session, as previously described in ...
Effects of exercise on plasma erythropoietin in natives living permanently at high altitude
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Abstract.
The effects of inspiratory hypoxia on the erythropoietin (EPO) system decisively depend on the duration of the exposure to the hypoxic environment. Whereas a stay of some hours in a hypobaric chamber leads to ...
The effect of altitude on the anaerobic power of bolivian boys of high and low socio-economic status
(Int. J. Sports Med., 1992)
Anthropometry and lung function of 10- to 12-year-old Bolivian boys
(Int. J. Sports Med., 1994)
Abstract.
Anthropometric measurements of 23 HAHSES, 44 HALSES, 43 LAHSES, and 28 LALSES boys (see Introduction to this Supplement) are presented here. They include body height (H), body weight (BW), upper arm circumference ...
Ventilatory, circulatory, and metabolic mechanisms during muscular exercise at high altitude (La Paz, 3500 m)
(Springer-Verlag, 1982)
Abstract.
The scientific study of the natives of the Andes in South America is no longer an isolated or exotic undertaking (9). The Andean peoples are undergoing cultural, social, and economic development unequaled in ...
The pulmonary circulation of high altitude natives
(Springer-Verlag, 1982)
Abstract. La Paz, the capital of Bolivia, a city with about 700,000 inhabitants, extends itself from an altitude of 4000 m above sea level down to 3200 m. The altitude of the Bolivian Institute of Altitude Biology (I.B.B.A.) ...
Adrenergic system in high altitude residents
(Int. J Sports. Med, 1992)
Abstract.
Heart rate (HR) response to isoproterenol (ISO) infusion (IP) is decreased in normal sea level (SL) natives exposed to high altitude (HA). Since norepinephrine plasma concentration is higher in HA hypoxia, a ...
Fluid regulatory hormone response to exercise after coca-induced body fluid shifts
(American Physiological Society, 1997)
To determine the effect of coca chewing on heart rate
(HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), and plasma
volume and their relationship with the hormones regulating
cardiovascular and body fluid homeostasis, 16 male ...
