Effects on colour discrimination during long term exposure to high altitudes on Mt Everest.
AIM To investigate changes in colour discrimination as a result of chronic hypoxic exposure induced by extreme altitudes (above 8000 m) during an expedition to Mt Everest. METHODS Colour discrimination thresholds for tritan, protan and deutan axes were measured extensively in two male participants (four eyes) during an expedition to Mt Everest, using a quantitative, computer controlled psycho...
متن کاملImpact of high altitudes on glucose control.
Corresponding Author: Johan Jendle, M.D., Ph.D., Endocrine and Diabetes Center, Karlstad Hospital, SE-65185 Karlstad, Sweden; email address [email protected] Airplane flight results in exposure to hypobaric conditions. At cruising altitude, usually 10,000 to 13,000 meters (~30,000 to 42,000 feet), the pressure in the cabin is 0.75 atm, which is 75% of the pressure measured at sea level. The d...
متن کاملShort-term exposure to high levels of natural external gamma radiation does not induce survival adaptive response
Background: In some areas of Ramsar, a city in northern Iran, residents receive a much higher annual radiation exposure than is permitted for radiation workers. Induction of adaptive response in residents of Ramsar has been reported previously. In this study induction of such a response in short term exposure to high background levels of gamma radiation is investigated. Materials and M...
متن کاملHepatic glucose uptake and disposition during short-term high-fat vs. high-fructose feeding.
In dogs consuming a high-fat and -fructose diet (52 and 17% of total energy, respectively) for 4 wk, hepatic glucose uptake (HGU) in response to hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and portal glucose delivery is markedly blunted with reduction in glucokinase (GK) protein and glycogen synthase (GS) activity. The present study compared the impact of selective increases in dietary fat and fructose on...
