Efectos del tabaquismo en una población de altura (La Paz- Bolivia 3600 m.)
(Revista Boliviana de Nefrología, 1990)
The effects of smoking on a high altitude population. (La Paz, Bolivia, 3600m or 12,200ft)
(Tobacco and Health, 1990)
Barometric pressure (PB) decreases with increasing a altitude. Since oxygen concentration is about 21% in the air of
the whole atmosphere, its partial pressure is also 21% of PB. At the altitude of La Paz (3600)m or ...
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 ...
Effects of coca chewing on hormonal and metabolic responses during prolonged sbmaximal exercise
(J Appl Physiol, 1996)
Abstract
The effects of coca chewing on prolonged submaximal exercise responses were investigated in chronic coca chewers and compared with a group of nonchewers. At rest, coca chewing during a 1-h period was followed by ...
Effect of altitude and socioeconomic status on VO2max and anaerobic power in prepubertal Bolivian girls
(J Appl Physiol, 1996)
Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of high altitude and low socioeconomic status (SES) on aerobic and anaerobic power in 11-yr-old Bolivian girls. At both high (3,600 m) and low (420 m) altitudes, ...
