Human llamas: adaptation to altitude in subjects with high hemoglobin oxygen affinity.
Hebbel, R P, Eaton, J W, Kronenberg, R S, Zanjani, E D, Moore, L G, Berger, E M
To assess the adaptive value of the right-shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (decreased affinity for oxygen) observed in humans upon altitude exposure, the short-term physiologic responses...
OBJECTIVES: This study examined whether the decline in birth-weight with increasing altitude is due to an independent effect of altitude or an exacerbation of other risk factors. METHODS: Maternal,...
