Reduced oxygen due to high‐altitude exposure relates to atrophy in motor‐function brain areas
MD Paola, M Bozzali, L Fadda… - European Journal of …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Background and purpose: At high altitudes barometric pressure is reduced and, thus, less
oxygen is inhaled. Reduced oxygen concentration in brain tissue can lead to cerebral …
