Exaggerated exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension causes lung water accumulation and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2010-08-08)
Chronic mountain sickness, optimal hemoglobin and heart disease
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2006-06)
Abstract.
For the male inhabitants of La Paz, Bolivia
(3200–4100 m), and other high altitude regions in America and Asia, chronic mountain sickness
(CMS) is a major health problem. Since CMS was first described by Carlos ...
Consensus statement on chronic and subacute high altitude diseases
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005)
ABSTRACT.
This is an international consensus statement of an ad hoc committee formed by the In
ternational Society for Mountain Medicine (ISMM) at the VI World Congress on Mountain Med
icine and High Altitude Physiology ...
Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia
(Circulation, 2010-07-19)
Background—Adverse events in utero may predispose to cardiovascular disease in adulthood. The underlying mechanisms are unknown. During preeclampsia, vasculotoxic factors are released into the maternal circulation by the ...
Protective effect of female sex hormones against pulmonary hypertension in Bolivian high altitude natives
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2003-02-19)
There is abundant evidence that female sex hormones have protective effects in the systemic circulation in both animals and humans,
but little is known regarding their role in the regulation of the pulmonary circulation. ...
Aymara children are protected from high-altitude-induced pulmonary hypertension
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005-02-22)
Pulmonary hypertension is a hallmark of the adaptation to ambient lack of oxygen. This assumption is also
thought to hold true for high-altitude native children,
since invasive studies showed elevated pulmonary-artery
pressure ...
Exaggerated pulmonary hypertension during mild exercise in chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2010-02)
Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is an important public health problem and is characterized by exaggerated hypoxemia, erythrocytosis, and pulmonary hypertension. While pulmonary hypertension is a leading cause ...
Exaggerated pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction in high-altitude dwellers with patent foramen ovale
(Chest, 2015)
There is considerable interindividual variability in pulmonary artery pressure among high-altitude (HA) dwellers, but the underlying mechanism is not known. At low altitude, a patent foramen
ovale (PFO) is present in about ...
Regional distribution of pulmonary blood flow in normal high-altitude dwellers at 3,650 m (12,200 ft)
(Respiration, 1975)
Abstract. Simultaneous isotope dilution curves were recorded from the right upper (QRUZ) and
right lower lung zones (QRLZ) by surface scanning in the sitting and recumbent positions in 15 normal high-altitude-born (HAD) ...
Exposición crónica a la altura. Características clínicas y diagnóstico
(Arch Cardiol Mex, 2021)
Resumen
La exposición crónica a la altitud se ha asociado a hipoxia hipobárica en quienes la experimentan. Dos entidades se han asociado a la hipoxia hipobárica: la hipertensión pulmonar de la alta altitud y el mal de ...
