Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.

Venous Oxygenation Measurements in the Upper Arm: Reproducibility and Sensitivity to a Physical Challenge

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2894-2906, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose The feasibility and reproducibility of adapting the T2‐Relaxation‐Under‐Spin‐Tagging (TRUST) MRI sequence for noninvasive measurement of venous oxygenation in the upper arm were investigated, aiming to enable future in vivo validation of T2b‐oxygenation calibration curves in sickle cell disease (SCD).
