Abstract Carbohydrate supplementation optimises athletic performance, but the metabolic and performance impacts of commercial products/compositions are underexplored. We compared the efficacy of three commercial carbohydrate supplements: a glucose–fructose bar (GF‐Bar), a glucose–fructose hydrogel (GF‐Gel) and a maltodextrin‐based gel (MD‐Gel ...

We investigated the adaptive genetic diversity within a population of Rhinopithecus bieti using amplicon sequencing. From 47 individuals, we identified 16 MHC class I sequences, revealing a low level of adaptive genetic variation. Although evidence for balancing selection, including positive selection and trans‐species polymorphism, was observed, these

Classic anthropological accounts of miniature objects have focused on their spatial and aesthetic dimensions, with more recent work addressing their communicative potential, connections with play, and role in protecting threatened cultural knowledge. This article analyses responses to a miniature landscape model of yhyakh, a festival celebrated in the ...

Abstract Human populations native to high altitude have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to chronic hypoxia. This adaptation is evident in the O2 transport cascade. In this review, with brief inclusion of the related genetic adaptations, we compare the O2 cascade across three well‐characterized high‐altitude populations: Andeans (Aymara and ...

Born high, born fast: Does highland birth confer a pulmonary advantage for sea level endurance?
Abstract Less than 7% of the world's population live at an altitude above 1500 m. Yet, as many as 67% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic marathon, and 100% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic 5000 m track race may have been born or raised above this otherwise rare threshold.
