Andean women have greater uterine artery (UTA) enlargement during pregnancy than european residents of 3600 m.
([s.n.], 2003)
Abstract.
Babies weigh less at high altitude but multi-generational high-altitude residents are protected from this birth weight decline (Moore HAMB 2001). Objective: We asked if higher arterial oxygenation and/or blood ...
Development of a panel of genome-wide ancestry informative markers to study admixture throughout the Americas
(PLOS Genetics, 2012-03-08)
Abstract.
Most individuals throughout the Americas are admixed descendants of Native American, European, and African ancestors.
Complex historical factors have resulted in varying proportions of ancestral contributions ...
Andean and Tibetan patterns of adaptation to high altitude
(American Journal of Human Biology, 2013-01-24)
Objectives: High-altitude hypoxia, or decreased oxygen levels caused by low barometric pressure, challenges the
ability of humans to live and reproduce. Despite these challenges, human populations have lived on the Andean ...
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 ...
