High-Altitude Erythrocytosis: Mechanisms of Adaptive and Maladaptive Responses
(American Physiological Society, 2022)
Erythrocytosis, or increased production of red blood cells, is one of the most well-documented physiological traits that varies within and among in high-altitude populations. Although a modest increase in blood O2-carrying ...
Excessive Erythrocytosis and Cardiovascular Risk in Andean Highlanders
(Mary Ann Liebert , 2018)
Corante, Noemí, Cecilia Anza-Ramírez, Rómulo Figueroa-Mujíca, José Luis Macarlupú, Gustavo Vizcardo-Galindo, Grzegorz Bilo, Gianfranco Parati, Jorge L. Gamboa, Fabiola León-Velarde, and Francisco C. Villafuerte. Excessive ...
Decreased plasma soluble erythropoietin receptor in high-altitude excessive erythrocytosis and Chronic Mountain Sickness
(American Physiological Society, 2014)
Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is the hallmark of chronic mountain sickness (CMS), a prevalent syndrome in high-altitude Andean populations. Although hypoxemia represents its underlying stimulus, why some individuals develop ...

(American Physiological Society, 2014)
Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is the hallmark of chronic mountain sickness (CMS), a prevalent syndrome in high-altitude Andean populations. Although hypoxemia represents its underlying stimulus, why some individuals develop ...
Protective role of estrogen against excessive erythrocytosis in Monge’s disease
(Wiley, 2020)
Rationale Chronic mountain sickness (CMS), or Monge's disease, is an advancing and debilitating syndrome caused by chronic (years) exposure to high altitude hypoxia, as experienced by people living in the Andean region. ...
Sub-maximal aerobic exercise training reduces haematocrit and ameliorates symptoms in Andean highlanders with chronic mountain sickness
(Wiley, 2021)
New Findings: What is the central question of this study? What is the effect of sub-maximal aerobic exercise training on signs and symptoms of chronic mountain sickness (CMS) in Andean highlanders? What is the main finding ...
Is depression the link between suicide and high altitude?
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2011)
Hypoxia is characteristic of living at high altitude. Animal and human studies have shown that chronic hypoxia is associated with changes in the brain. Neurological symptoms are common in high altitude populations. Headaches, ...
Prevalence, clinical profile, iron status, and subject-specific traits for excessive erythrocytosis in andean adults living permanently at 3,825 meters above sea level
(Elsevier, 2014)
BACKGROUND: Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is a prevalent condition in populations living at high altitudes (> 2,500 m above sea level). Few large population-based studies have explored the association between EE and ...
Increased hypoxic proliferative response and gene expression in erythroid progenitor cells of Andean highlanders with Chronic Mountain Sickness.
(American Physiological Society, 2019)
Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is the main sign of Chronic Mountain Sickness (CMS), a maladaptive clinical syndrome prevalent in Andean and other high-altitude populations worldwide. The pathophysiological mechanism of EE ...
