(1) Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of high altitude on inhibitory
control processes that underlie sustained attention in the neural correlates of EEG data, and …

Human Physiology in Extreme Environments, Second Edition, offers evidence on how
human biology and physiology is affected by extreme environments, also highlighting …

The neurocognitive basis of the effect of long-term high altitude exposure on voluntary
attention is unclear. Using event related potentials, the high altitude group (people born in …

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) acts to maintain brain blood flow despite fluctuations in
perfusion pressure. Acute hypoxia is thought to impair CA, but it is unclear if CA is affected …

The present study aimed to assess specific cognitive processes (cognitive control and time
perception) and hemodynamic correlates using functional near-infrared spectroscopy …

Mild‑to‑moderate closed‑head injury (mmCHI) is an acute disease induced by high‑altitudes.
It is general practice to transfer patients to lower altitudes for treatment, but the …

Cerebral syndromes related to high-altitude exposure are becoming more frequent as the
number of trips to high altitudes has increased in the last decade. The commonest symptom …

Understanding the effects of increased and decreased gravity on central nervous system is
essential for developing proper physical and cognitive countermeasures to assure safe and …

The main physiological challenge in high-altitude plateau environments is hypoxia. When
people living in a plain environment migrate to the plateau, they face the threat of hypoxia …

In order to describe how high altitude affects the body during a one night stay at 4000m
experiments were performed in a hypobaric chamber and compared to a study on Dachstein …
