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 ...
