Abstract Changes in physiological functions after spaceflight and simulated spaceflight
involve several mechanisms. Microgravity is one of them and it can be partially reproduced …

Acute mountain sickness is a common discomfort experienced by unacclimatized persons
on ascent to high altitude. We tested the hypothesis that exposure to high altitude affects …

Introduction: Cognitive function has been compromised during high-altitude (HA) exposure
due to slowing of mental processing. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 Indian and 20 …

New Findings What is the central question of this study? The role of the cerebral
haemodynamic response to either normobaric or hypobaric hypoxia in people susceptible to …

Damage to the visual cortex structures after high altitude exposure has been well clarified.
However, changes in the neuronal activity and functional connectivity (FC) of the visual …

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 …

Objectives: To assess cognition in populations born and living at high altitude (HA; 3,700 m)
