Obesity as a Conditioning Factor for High-Altitude Diseases
(Karger, 2017)
Obesity, a worldwide epidemic, has become a major health burden because it is usually accompanied by an increased risk for insulin resistance, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and even some kinds of cancer. ...
Physico-chemical and sensory interactions of arabica coffee genotypes in different water regimes
(2021-01-01)
The production of specialty coffee has several factors and parameters that are added up in the course of production, so that the quality is expressed in the act of consumption. Based on this scenario, this study included ...
The newborn sheep translational model for pulmonary arterial hypertension of the neonate at high altitude
(Cambridge University Press, 2020)
Chronic hypoxia during gestation induces greater occurrence of perinatal complications such as intrauterine growth restriction, fetal hypoxia, newborn asphyxia, and respiratory distress, among others. This condition may ...
The role of nitric oxide signaling in pulmonary circulation of high- and low-altitude newborn sheep under basal and acute hypoxic conditions
(Academic Press Inc., 2019)
Nitric oxide (NO) is the main vasodilator agent that drives the rapid decrease of pulmonary vascular resistance for the respiratory onset during the fetal to neonatal transition. Nevertheless, the enhanced NO generation ...

Unexpected rapid decrease in phase velocity of submeter Farley-Buneman waves with altitude
(American Geophysical Union, 2008-02-09)
An unexpected and drastic drop in the phase velocity Vph of Farley‐Buneman (FB) waves with increasing altitude was observed in the equatorial electrojet over Jicamarca. The effect was detected with the newly employed 430‐MHz ...
