The pathophysiology of acute mountain sickness and high-altitude cerebral edema, the
cerebral forms of high-altitude illness, remain uncertain and controversial. Persistently …

New Findings What is the central question of this study? Hypoxia associated with ascent to
high altitude may threaten cerebral oxygen delivery. We sought to determine whether there …

Background Cognitive and neuroimaging changes under chronic high‐altitude exposure
have never been followed up and dynamically assessed. Objectives To investigate the …

Objective This study aimed to investigate the effects of long-term hypoxic environment
exposure on cognitive ability and neuroimaging characteristics in a highland population in …

Mammals are able to adapt to high altitude (HA) if appropriate acclimation occurs. However,
specific occupations (professional climbers, pilots, astronauts and other) can be exposed to …

Medical congresses often held in highlands. We reviewed several medical issues
associated with altitude stress especially while physicians have participated medical …

As increasing numbers of people live, work, and play at high altitudes, awareness of the
neurological consequences of hypobaric hypoxic environments becomes paramount …

High‐mountain sickness is characterized by brain and pulmonary edema and cognitive
deficits. The definition can be fulfilled by a rat model of high‐altitude exposure (HAE) used in …

Objective The study was undertaken to determine whether normobaric hypoxia causes
elevated brain volume and intracranial pressure in individuals with symptoms consistent …

Purpose To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies of brain
MRI, this paper assesses the effects of long-term exposure to high-altitude on brain …
