Background: Hypoxia is a physiological condition that may affect the cardiac autonomic
modulation, which can be assessed by spontaneous fluctuations in heart rate, know as heart …

In the United States, suicide rates consistently vary among geographic regions; the western
states have significantly higher suicide rates than the eastern states. The reason for this …

Acute exposure to hypobaric hypoxia at high altitude is reported to cause sympathetic
dominance that may contribute to the pathophysiology of high altitude illnesses. The effect of …

Suicide is a serious but preventable public health issue. Several previous studies have
revealed a positive association between altitude and suicide rates at the county level in the …

Objective: Hypoxic exposure can be used as a therapeutic tool by inducing various
cardiovascular, neuromuscular, and metabolic adaptations. Hypoxic conditioning strategies …

The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of high altitude (HA) immigration on
cerebral electrical activity. Electro-EncephaloGraphic (EEG) activity were recorded from 25 …

Normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) are both used to train aircraft pilots to
recognize symptoms of hypoxia. NH (low oxygen concentration) training is often preferred …

Methods A systematic literature search identified articles investigating the relationship
between EEG changes and acute cerebral hypoxia in healthy adults. Quality of clinical …

More than 80 million people worldwide permanently live at high altitudes, and living in such
a hypoxic environment can impair cognitive functions. However, it is largely unknown how …

While the effects of instantaneous, single-bout exposure to hypoxia have been well
researched, little is known about the autonomic response during, or as an adaptation to …
