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 ... -
Hormonal and metabolic adjustments during exercise in hypoxia or normoxia in highland natives
(J Appl Physiol, 1996)Abstract In sea-level natives, exposure to hypoxia for a few weeks is characterized by an increased dependence on blood glucose and a decreased reliance on lactate for energy metabolism during exercise. These metabolic ... -
Cryptic speciation in Lutzomyia (Nyssomyia) Trapidoi (Fairchild & Hertic) (Diptera: Psychodidae) detected by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis
(Am. J. Trop Med. Hyg., 1996)Abstract Lutzomyia trapidoi is the major vector of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Ecuador. In the framework of an epidemiologic study, female Lu. trapidoi sand flies were captured on human bait in La Tablada and Paraiso ... -
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, ... -
Genética de poblaciones de triatomineos en relación a las estrategias de control de insectos vectores
(Bol. Soc. Zool. Uruguay, 1995)The causative agent of Chagas disease infects more than 16 millions persons in Latin America; the resulting human chronic pathology is responsible of an important economic loss. The authors first analyze the main features ... -

RAPD Protocol for triatominae
([s.n.], 1995)ABSTRACT RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) technique was evaluated in silvatic and domestic I. infestans originating from Cochabamba (Bolivia). Total genomic DNA was isolated from individual legs. Three extraction ... -

Trypanosoma cruzi : study of the distribution of two widespread clonal genetypes in Bolivian Triatoma infestans vectors shows a high frequency of mixed infestions
(Experimental Parasitology, 1996)Abstract. The detection of two widespread Trypanosoma cruzi clonal genotypes (20 and 39) in feces of Bolivian specimens of the vector Triatoma infestans was performed by a combination of polymerase chain reaction and ... -

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. ... -
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 ... -
Hemoglobin mass and blood volume in patients with altitude-related polycythemia
(Frontiers in Physiology, 2022)Patients with chronic mountain sickness (CMS) have a high hemoglobin concentration [Hb] due to increased hemoglobin mass (Hbmass) and possibly reduced plasma volume (PV). The values of Hbmass, PV and blood volume (BV) have ... -
Genetic variability and geographic differentiation among three species of Triatomine bugs (Himiptera- Reduviidae)
(Am. J. Trop Med. Hyg., 1997)Abstract. Three species of triatomine bugs, Triatoma sordida, T. guasayana, and T. patagonica, were examined by cytogenetic (C-banded karyotypes and male meiotic process) and isoenzymatic studies. These three species, ... -
EPR spectroscopic evidence of iron-catalysed free radical formation in chronic mountain sickness : dietary causes and vascualr consequences
(Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2022)Abstract Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a high-altitude (HA) maladaptation syndrome characterised by elevated systemic oxidative-nitrosative stress (OXNOS) due to a free radical-mediated reduction in vascular nitric ... -
Low probability of transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi to humans by domiciliary Triatoma sordida in Bolivia
(Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1997)Abstract The role of Triatoma sordida in the domestic transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi was assessed in 7 rural localities in Velasco Province, Department of Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Tri. sordida, the only triatomine species ...
