Gender differentiation of the chemoreflex during growth at high altitude: functional and neurochemical studies.
The effect of chronic hypoxia on gender differences in physiology and neurochemistry of chemosensory pathways was studied in prepubertal and adult rats living at sea level (SL; Lyon, France) or at high altitude (HA; La Paz, Bolivia, 3,600 m). HA adult rats had higher hematocrit (Ht%), Hb concentration, resting ventilatory rate (Ve(100)), and higher tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity in carotid ...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Positive Fungal Cultures in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis in a High Altitude Region of Iran
Introduction: There are suspended fungal spores in the air and in the nasal mucosa of adults, especially in areas with a humid climate. Several studies have revealed the role of fungi in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in recent years but it is a topic of controversy, especially in regions with low humidity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of fungal specie...
متن کاملA Numerical Simulation of Inspiratory Airflow in Human Airways during Exercise at Sea Level and at High Altitude
At high altitudes, the air pressure is much lower than it is at sea level and contains fewer oxygen molecules and less oxygen is taken in at each breath. This requires deeper and rapid breathing to get the same amount of oxygen into the blood stream compared to breathing in air at sea level. Exercises increase the oxygen demand and make breathing more difficult at high altitude. In this study, ...
متن کاملSelected contribution: Ventilatory response to CO2 in high-altitude natives and patients with chronic mountain sickness.
The ventilatory responses to CO(2) of high-altitude (HA) natives and patients with chronic mountain sickness (CMS) were studied and compared with sea-level (SL) natives living at SL. A multifrequency binary sequence (MFBS) in end-tidal Pco(2) was employed to separate the fast (peripheral) and slow (central) components of the chemoreflex response. MFBS was imposed against a background of both eu...
متن کاملEffect of Solar Ultraviolet-B plus End of Day Light and Its Exclusion on Growth Performance and Dry Weight Accumulation of Two Sweet Potato Cultivars (Ipomoea batatas L.) on Different Altitudes
UV-B radiation and EOD light (EOD) quality has both signaling and damaging effects based on the dosage and time of exposure. At highland areas UV-B decreases crop productivity and also light quality increase at high elevation area but EOD light quality effect was not researched based on altitude. Therefore, in the present study a field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of UV-B...
