      Beall, Cynthia M; Brittenham, Gary M; Strohl, Kingman P; Blangero, John; Williams-Blanguero, Sarah; Goldstein, Melvyn C; Decker, Michael J; Vargas, Enrique; Villena, Mercedes; Soria, Rudy; Alarcón, Ana María; Gonzales, Cristina (American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1998)
      Abstract. Elevated hemoglobin concentrations have been reported for high-altitude sojourners and Andean high-altitude natives since early in the 20th century. Thus, reports that have appeared since the 1970s describing ...
    • Percent of oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin among Bolivian aymara at 3,900-4000 m 

      Beall, Cynthia M; Almasy, Laura A; Blangero, John; Williams-Blangero, Sarah; Brittenham, Gary M; Strohl, Kingman P; Decker, Michael J; Vargas, Enrique; Villena, Mercedes; Soria, Rudy; Alarcón, Ana María; Gonzales, Cristina (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 ...
    • Ventilation and hypoxic ventilatory response of Tibetan and Aymara high altitude natives 

      Beall, Cynthia M; Strohl, Kingman P; Blangero, John; Williams-Blangero, Sarah; Almasy, Laura A; Decker, Michael J; Worthman, Carol M; Goldstein, Melvyn C; Vargas, Enrique (American Journal Physical Anthropology, 1997)
      ABSTRACT. Newcomers acclimatizing to high altitude and adult male Tibetan high altitude natives have increased ventilation relative to sea level natives at sea level. However, Andean and Rocky Mountain high altitude natives ...
