High-altitude cerebral edema (HACE) and acute mountain sickness (AMS) are
neuropathologies associated with rapid exposure to hypoxia. However, speculation remains …

The diagnosis, treatment and prevention of high altitude cerebral edema (HACE) are fairly
well established. The major unresolved issues are 1) the pathophysiology, 2) the individual …

Traditionally, scientists and clinicians have explored peripheral physiological responses to
acute hypoxia to explain the pathophysiological processes that lead to acute mountain …

The present study applied T2-and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging to
examine if mild cerebral edema and subsequent brain swelling are implicated in the …

Background High-altitude cerebral edema (HACE) is the severe type of acute mountain
sickness (AMS) and life threatening. A subclinical inflammation has been speculated, but the …

This review focuses on the epidemiology, clinical description, pathophysiology, treatment,
and prevention of high altitude cerebral edema (HACE). HACE is an uncommon and …

Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is a neurological disorder that typically affects mountaineers
who ascend to high altitude. The symptoms have traditionally been ascribed to intracranial …

Acute mountain sickness (AMS) and high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE) are essentially
neurological disorders. The five symptoms included in the Lake Louise AMS symptom score …

Acute mountain sickness (AMS) and high-altitude cerebral edema share common clinical
characteristics, suggesting cerebral swelling may be an important factor in the …

Cellular hypoxia is the common final pathway of brain injury that occurs not just after
asphyxia, but also when cerebral perfusion is impaired directly (eg, embolic stroke) or …
