Relationships Between Chemoreflex Responses, Sleep Quality, and Hematocrit in Andean Men and Women. [PDF]
Andean highlanders are challenged by chronic hypoxia and many exhibit elevated hematocrit (Hct) and blunted ventilation compared to other high-altitude populations.

The pharmacokinetic characteristics of drugs were altered under high altitude hypoxia, thereby affecting the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drug. However, there are few literatures on the pharmacokinetic changes of antipyretic and

Cognitive function and mood at high altitude following acclimatization and use of supplemental oxygen and adaptive servoventilation sleep treatments. [PDF]
Impairments in cognitive function, mood, and sleep quality occur following ascent to high altitude. Low oxygen (hypoxia) and poor sleep quality are both linked to impaired cognitive performance, but their independent contributions at high altitude remain

Hypoxia at high-altitude leads to osteoporosis. Resveratrol (RES), as an antioxidant, has been reported to promote osteoblastogenesis and suppress osteoclastogenesis.

Design and conduct of Xtreme Everest 2: an observational cohort study of Sherpa and lowlander responses to graduated hypobaric hypoxia [PDF]
Objective: oxygen availability falls with ascent to altitude and also as a consequence of critical illness. Because cellular sequelae and adaptive processes may be shared in both circumstances, high altitude exposure (‘physiological hypoxia’) assists in ...

High-altitude hypoxia and preeclampsia [PDF]
The influence of hypoxia (lowered arterial blood and/or tissue PO2) on fetoplacental development and the role of hypoxia in preeclampsia are major research foci in perinatal biology. While animal and cell models are of utility, we do not know whether artificial hypoxic stimuli mimic the pathological conditions attributed to hypoxic stress in vivo; we ...

Hypoxic regulation of ion channel function and expression [PDF]
Acute hypoxia regulates the activity of specific ion channels in a rapid and reversible manner. Such effects underlie appropriate cellular responses to hypoxia which are designed to initiate cardiorespiratory reflexes and contribute importantly to other ...

Altitude and COVID‐19: Friend or foe? A narrative review
Recent reports suggest that high‐altitude residence may be beneficial in the novel coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) implicating that traveling to high places or using hypoxic conditioning thus could be favorable as well.

Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin: its response to hypoxia and association with acute mountain sickness. [PDF]
Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is a common clinical challenge at high altitude (HA). A point-of-care biochemical marker for AMS could have widespread utility.
