Physiological and Biological Responses to Short-Term Intermittent Hypobaric Hypoxia Exposure: From Sports and Mountain Medicine to New Biomedical Applications. [PDF]
In recent years, the altitude acclimatization responses elicited by short-term intermittent exposure to hypoxia have been subject to renewed attention. The main goal of short-term intermittent hypobaric hypoxia exposure programs was originally to improve

Chronic Intermittent Hypobaric Hypoxia Restores Hippocampus Function and Rescues Cognitive Impairments in Chronic Epileptic Rats via Wnt/β-catenin Signaling. [PDF]
Epilepsy is a complex neurological disorder with frequent psychiatric, cognitive, and social comorbidities in addition to recurrent seizures. Cognitive impairment, one of the most common comorbidities, has severe adverse effects on quality of life ...

Protection of Pentoxifylline against Testis Injury Induced by Intermittent Hypobaric Hypoxia. [PDF]
To investigate the effect of pentoxifylline (PTX) on spermatogenesis dysfunction induced by intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) and unveil the underlying mechanism, experimental animals were assigned to Control, IHH+Vehicle, and IHH+PTX groups and exposed to 4 cycles of 96 h of hypobaric hypoxia followed by 96 h of normobaric normoxia for 32 days. PTX

Contractile Activity Is Necessary to Trigger Intermittent Hypobaric Hypoxia-Induced Fiber Size and Vascular Adaptations in Skeletal Muscle. [PDF]
Altitude training has become increasingly popular in recent decades. Its central and peripheral effects are well-described; however, few studies have analyzed the effects of intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) alone on skeletal muscle ...

Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia causes deleterious effects on the reproductive system in female rats.
BACKGROUNDS Numerous studies have revealed that hypobaric hypoxia exposure elicited imbalance of homeostasis. However, the effects of intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) exposure on the female reproductive system have been rarely reported.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of antioxidant treatment in patients with acute mountain sickness induced by high altitude exposure. [PDF]
Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is a frequent condition triggered by exposure to hypobaric hypoxia at high altitude. Its pathophysiology involves endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress, with elevated oxidative molecules identified as key contributors

Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia applicability in myocardial infarction prevention and recovery [PDF]
AbstractIntermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) has been the focus of important research in cardioprotection, and it has been associated with several mechanisms. Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia inhibits prolyl hydroxylases (PHD) activity, increasing the stabilization of hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 (HIF‐1) and activating crucial adaptative genes. It has been
