The effect of high altitude on platelet counts, thrombopoietin and erythropoietin levels in young Bolivian airmen visiting the Andes
(Int J Biometeorol, 1999)
Abstract.
Recognition of thrombosis as a complication of exposure to high altitude has stimulated interest in rheological changes resulting from hypobaric hypoxia. Previous studies of platelet counts at high altitude have ...
Antimalarias activity and cytotoxicity of (-)-Roemrefidine isolated from the stem bark of Sparattanthelium amazonum
(Planta Médica, 1999)
Abstract.
(-)-Roemrefidine, an aporphine alkaloid isolated from Sparattanthelium amazonum Martius (Hernandiaceae) a vine from Bolivia, has been found to be active against both resistant and sensitive strains of Plasmodium ...
Effect of developmental and ancestral high-altitude exposure on VO2peak of andean and european/north american natives
(American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1999)
ABSTRACT.
Peak oxygen consumption (V02peak) was measured in 150 adult males (18-35 years old) in Bolivia, using a complete migrant study design to partition developmental from ancestral (genetic) effects of high altitude ...
Percent of oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin among Bolivian aymara at 3,900-4000 m
(American Journal of Physical Anthroplogy, 1999)
ABSTRACT.
A range of variation in percent of oxygen saturation of
arterial hemoglobin (SaO2) among healthy individuals at a given high
altitude indicates differences in physiological hypoxemia despite uniform
ambient ...
Developmental components of resting ventilation among high - and low-altitude andean children and adults
(American Journal of Physical Anthroplogy, 1999)
ABSTRACT.
This paper evaluates the age-associated changes of resting
ventilation of 115 high- and low-altitude Aymara subjects, of whom 61 were
from the rural Aymara village of Ventilla situated at an average altitude ...
Effect of developmental and ancestral high-altitude exposure on chest morphology and pulmonary function in andean and european/north american natives
(American Journal of Human Biology, 1999)
Abstract.
Chest depth, chest width, forced vital capacity (FVC), and forced expiratory volume (FEV1) were measured in 170 adult males differing by ancestral (genetic) and developmental exposure to high altitude (HA). A ...
