Adequate oxygen supply is essential for the human brain to meet its high energy demands.
Therefore, elaborate molecular and systemic mechanism are in place to enable adaptation …

Both genomics-and proteomics-based investigations have identified several essential
genes, proteins, and pathways that may facilitate human adaptive genotype/phenotype in a …

Background: Finger pulse oximeters are widely used to monitor physiological responses to
high-altitude exposure, the progress of acclimatization, and/or the potential development of …

Purpose Main purposes of pre-acclimatization by hypoxia conditioning (HC) are the
prevention of high-altitude illnesses and maintenance of aerobic exercise performance …

This review explores forms of respiratory and autonomic plasticity, and associated outcome
measures, that are initiated by exposure to intermittent hypoxia. The review focuses primarily …

Severe hypoxia can induce a range of systemic disorders; however, surprising resilience
can be obtained through sublethal adaptation to hypoxia, a process termed as hypoxic …

In January 2019, a European Respiratory Society research seminar entitled “Targeting the
detrimental effects of sleep disturbances and disorders” was held in Dublin, Ireland. It …

Male infertility is a widespread health problem affecting approximately 6%–8% of the male
population, and hypoxia may be a causative factor. In mammals, two types of hypoxia are …

Moderate altitude exposure has shown beneficial effects on diabetes incidence but the
underlying mechanisms are not understood. Our study aimed to investigate how the human …

Mild intermittent hypoxia may be a potent novel strategy to improve cardiovascular function,
motor and cognitive function, and altitude acclimatization. However, there is still a stigma …
