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 ...
Evidence that parent-of-origin affects birth-weight reductions at high altitude
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2008-02-19)
Abstract.
Hypoxia exerts a profound depressant effect on fetal growth, lowering birth weight, and raising mortality risk. Multigenerational high-altitude populations are relatively protected from this birth-weight decline, ...

Respiratory nitric oxide and pulmonary artery pressure in children of aymara and european ancestry at high altitude*
(CHEST, 2008-11-07)
Invasive studies suggest that healthy children living at high altitude display pulmonary hypertension, but the data to support this assumption are sparse. Nitric oxide (NO) synthesized by the
respiratory epithelium regulates ...

Does neonatal resuscitation deserve a special chapter?
(Segundo Congreso Virtual de Cardiología, 2001-11)
Neonatal resuscitation has developed into a distinct sub-discipline of pediatric resuscitation, which itself stands apart from adult cardiopulmonary resuscitation. What justifies this ...
Regression-based prediction of net energy expenditure in children performing activities at high altitude
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2003-01-06)
Abstract.
We developed a simple, non-invasive, and affordable method for estimating net energy expenditure (EE) in children performing activities at high altitude. A regression-based method ...
