Salivary progesterone levels and rate of ovulation are significantly lower in poorer than in better-of urban-dwelling Bolivian women
(Human Reproduction, 2002)
Agriculturalists in less-developed countries (LDC) have lower progesterone levels than urban industrialized populations. However, it is unknown if urban LDC populations are also relatively lower. We tested whether urban ...
Patrones reproductivos en la altura : hipoxia o regulación cultural
(Rev. Arg. Antrop. Biol., 2001)
Where the O2 goes to : preservation of human fetal oxygen delivery and consumption at high altitude
(The Journal of Physiology, 2009)
Fetal growth is decreased at high altitude (> 2700 m). We hypothesized that variation in fetal O2
delivery might account for both the altitude effect and the relative preservation of fetal growth in
multigenerational ...
Intrauterine growth restriction, preeclampsia, and intrauterine mortality at high altitude in Bolivia
(PEDIATRIC RESEARCH, 2003-02-18)
Abstract.
Infant mortality and stillbirth rates in Bolivia are high and birth weights are low compared with other South American countries. Most Bolivians live at altitudes of 2500 m or higher. We sought to determine the ...

Seasonal and circadian variation in salivary testosterone in rural Bolivian men
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2009-02-19)
Abstract.
Testosterone (T) plays a key role in the increase and maintenance of muscle mass and bone density in
adult men. Life history theory predicts that environmental stress may prompt a reallocation of such investments ...
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 ...

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 ...
