High-altitude (HA) exposure affects cognitive functions, but studies have found inconsistent
results. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effects of HA exposure on …

Microgravity and sleep loss lead to cognitive and learning deficits. These behavioral
alterations are likely to be associated with cytomorphological changes and loss of neurons …

Though acute exposure to hypobaric hypoxia is reported to impair cognitive performance,
the effects of prolonged exposure on different cognitive domains have been less studied …

Radiation and microgravity exert different biological effects on the human brain during space
flight. Studies rarely focus on the two combined. The central nervous system (CNS) is among …

Many factors contribute to the health risks encountered by astronauts on missions outside
Earth's atmosphere. Spaceflight-induced potential adverse neurovascular damage and late …

It should be noted that Dr. JW Severinghaus was the expert author of this chapter (Cerebral
circulation at high altitude) in the First Edition of this textbook. Moreover, in updating this …

With the advancement of in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique, more
detailed information about the human brain at high altitude (HA) has been revealed. The …

Symptoms of high altitude sickness including headache and neuropsychological dysfunction
are thought to result from prolonged exposure to hypoxia. In order to explain how the brain …

Introduction The investigation of cognitive function in microgravity, both short-term and long-
term, remains largely descriptive. And the underlying mechanisms of the changes over time …

Exposure to hypobaric hypoxia at high altitude (above 2500 m asl) causes cognitive
impairment, mostly attributed to changes in brain perfusion and consequently neuronal …
