Uterine artery blood flow, fetal hypoxia and fetal growth
(Philosophycal Transactions B, 2015-03-13)
Evolutionary trade-offs required for bipedalism and brain expansion influence
the pregnancy rise in uterine artery (UtA) blood flow and, in turn, reproductive
success. We consider the importance of UtA blood flow by ...
Divergent physiological responses in laboratory rats and mice raised at high altitude
(The Journal of Experimental Biology, 2015-01-29)
Abstract.
Ecological studies show that mice can be found at high altitude (HA – up to 4000 m) while rats are absent at these altitudes, and there are
no data to explain this discrepancy. We used adult laboratory rats ...
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 ...
Cardiac and vascular disease prior to hatching in chick embryos incubated at high altitude
(Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2010)
Abstract.
The partial contributions of reductions in fetal nutrition and oxygenation to slow fetal growth and a developmental origin of cardiovascular disease remain unclear. By combining high altitude with the chick ...
Climate change and global health : a Latin American perspective
(CAB International, 2014)
Abstract:
The epidemiological profile of Latin America (LA) is marked by diseases of poverty and underdevelopment. Climate change is also reinforcing the intensity and frequency of climate variability, with more intense ...
Climate change and health vulnerability in Bolivian Chaco ecosystems
(Springer, 2016-03-25)
Abstract.
Climate change and variability is impacting health, across different spatial scales, ecosystems, and water supply and quality. In Bolivia climate change is operating in a framework of poverty and inequality. ...
The highs and lows of programmed cardiovascular disease by developmental hypoxia : studies in the chicken embryo
(J Physiol, 2018)
Abstract
It is now established that adverse conditions during pregnancy can trigger a fetal origin of cardiovascular dysfunction and/or increase the risk of heart disease in later life. Suboptimal environmental conditions ...
A successful early warning system for hydroclimatic extreme events : the case of La Paz City mega landslide
(Springer International, 2018)
Rehidratación oral en deshidratación neonatal severa con hipernatremia crónica
(Rev Med La Paz, 2015)
RESUMEN
La hipernatremia crónica se presenta en neonatos con deshidratación secundaria a baja ingesta de leche materna debida a mala técnica de lactancia, se establece progresivamente y se acompaña de gran pérdida de peso. ...
