Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is extensively applied to challenge cardiovascular and respiratory
function, and to induce physiological acclimatization. The purpose of this study was to test …

Key points In the present study, we provide evidence for divergent physiological responses
to moderate compared to severe hypoxia, addressing an important knowledge gap related …

We determined the ventilatory, cardiovascular and cerebral tissue oxygen response to two
protocols of normobaric, isocapnic, intermittent hypoxia. Subjects (n= 18, male) were …

Physiological adaptations to intermittent hypoxia (IH) conditioning are based on the
cumulative effect of repeated IH exposures. The present study sought to test the hypothesis …

The purpose of this study was 1) to test the hypothesis that ventilation and arterial oxygen
saturation (SaO2) during acute hypoxia may increase during intermittent hypoxia and …

Intermittent hypoxia, defined as alternating bouts of breathing hypoxic and normoxic air, has
the potential to improve oxygen-carrying capacity through an erythropoietin-mediated …

A placebo-controlled study was performed to examine the effects of intermittent normobaric
hypoxic preconditioning on the autonomic regulation of blood flow, as well as on heart rate …

The aim of the present study was to elucidate (1) the cardiovascular adaptations and
response to hypoxic stimuli during short-term intermittent hypoxia and (2) whether the …

Arterial oxygen tension and oxyhemoglobin saturation (S a O 2) decrease in parallel during
hypoxia. Distinguishing between changes in oxygen tension and oxygen content as the …
