Implications of moderate altitude training for sea level endurance in elite distance runners [PDF]
, 1998 Elite distance runners participated in one of two studies designed to investigate the e ects of mod- erate altitude training (inspiratory partial pressure of oxygen »115±125 mmHg) on submaximal, maximal and supramaximal exercise performance following

Internal sensations as a source of fear: exploring a link between hypoxia and flight phobia [PDF]
, 2013 Although flight phobia is very common in the general population, knowledge of the underlying mechanisms is limited. The aim of the current study is to determine whether hypoxia is selectively associated with flight anxiety. We wanted to explore levels of

Human adaptation to high altitude: a review of convergence between genomic and proteomic signatures
Human Genomics, 2022 Both genomics- and proteomics-based investigations have identified several essential genes, proteins, and pathways that may facilitate human adaptive genotype/phenotype in a population-specific manner.

Developmental responses to high altitude hypoxia [PDF]
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1970 AbstractFrom a review of published literature on developmental responses to high altitude, three major conclusions are derived. First, the small birth weight of high altitude native populations are adaptive responses to reduce the oxygen requirements, while the relative increase in the placental weight is a compromise mechanism to increase the volume ...

The physiological effects of hypobaric hypoxia versus normobaric hypoxia: a systematic review of crossover trials [PDF]
, 2015 Much hypoxia research has been carried out at high altitude in a hypobaric hypoxia (HH) environment. Many research teams seek to replicate high-altitude conditions at lower altitudes in either hypobaric hypoxic conditions or normobaric hypoxic (NH ...

Developmental adaptation to high altitude hypoxia [PDF]
International Journal of Biometeorology, 1977 Experimental studies on animals and humans exposed to hypoxic stress have been reviewed. These data suggest that the influence of hypoxic stress, and the organism's response to it, are greater during growth than during adulthood. The organism's responses include alterations in the quantity and size of the alveolar units of the lungs, enlargement of the

Humans at high altitude: Hypoxia and fetal growth [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2011 High-altitude studies offer insight into the evolutionary processes and physiological mechanisms affecting the early phases of the human lifespan. Chronic hypoxia slows fetal growth and reduces the pregnancy-associated rise in uterine artery (UA) blood flow. Multigenerational vs.
