He, Ben, Jiayue Feng, Yan Shu, Lichun Yang, Zepin He, Kanxiu Liao, Hui Zhuo, and Hui Li. Prevalence and risk factors of hyperuricemia among young and middle-aged Tibetan men living at ultrahigh altitudes: a cross-sectional study. High Alt Med Biol. 25:42-48, 2024. Background: Few studies have examined the prevalence or risk factors of hyperuricemia among populations living at ultrahigh altitudes. Here we examined the prevalence of hyperuricemia and factors associated with it among young and middle-aged Tibetan men living at ultrahigh altitudes. Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed 672 Tibetan men 18-60 years old living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (mean altitude 4,014 m) within the county of Litang in the Ganzi Tibetan autonomous prefecture of Sichuan Province, China. Demographic and clinical data were collected from self-administered questionnaires, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Participants whose blood uric acid (UA) contained >420 μmol/l were classified as having hyperuricemia. Results: Of the 672 men analyzed, 332 (49.4%) had hyperuricemia. Multivariate logistic regression showed risk of hyperuricemia to correlate positively with body mass index (per 1 U increase: odds ratio [OR] 1.172, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.1066-1.243), triglycerides (OR 1.408, 95% CI 1.084-1.828), red blood cell count (OR 1.376, 95% CI 1.009-1.875), and creatinine level (per 1 U increase: OR 1.051, 95% CI 1.033-1.070). Conversely, risk of hyperuricemia correlated negatively with the presence of diabetes mellitus (OR 0.412, 95% CI 0.175-0.968). Subgroup analyses showed that prevalence of hyperuricemia was significantly higher among those with polycythemia than among those without it, and that UA levels correlated positively with hematocrit and hemoglobin levels. Conclusions: Hyperuricemia is an important public health problem among Tibetan men living at ultrahigh altitudes in Ganzi autonomous prefecture. The region urgently requires appropriate prevention and management efforts.

Beidleman, Mia Derstine, Jacqueline Pichler Hefti, David Hillebrandt, and Linda E. Keyes for the UIAA MedCom writing group on Women's Health in the Mountains. Menopause and high altitude: A scoping review-UIAA Medical Commission Recommendations. High Alt Med Biol. 25:1-8, 2024. Background: Older people are an important fraction of mountain travelers and climbers, many of them postmenopausal women. The aim of this work was to review health issues that older and postmenopausal women may experience at high altitude, including susceptibility to high-altitude illness. Methods: We performed a scoping review for the UIAA Medical Commission series on Women's Health in the mountains. We searched PubMed and Cochrane libraries and performed an additional manual search. The primary search focused on articles assessing lowland women sojourning at high altitude. Results: We screened 7,165 potential articles. The search revealed three relevant articles, and the manual search another seven articles and one abstract. Seven assessed menopausal low-altitude residents during a high-altitude sojourn or performing hypoxic tests. Four assessed high-altitude residents. We summarize the results of these 11 studies. Conclusions: Data are limited on the effects of high altitude on postmenopausal women. The effects of short-term, high-altitude exposure on menopause symptoms are unknown. Menopause has minimal effect on the physiological responses to hypoxia in physically fit women and does not increase the risk of acute mountain sickness. Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of urinary tract infections, which may be exacerbated during mountain travel. More research is needed on the physiology and performance of older women at high altitude.

Liu, Bo, Minlan Yuan, Mei Yang, Hongru Zhu, and Wei Zhang. The effect of high-altitude hypoxia on neuropsychiatric functions. High Alt Med Biol. 25:26-41, 2024. Background: In recent years, there has been a growing popularity in engaging in activities at high altitudes, such as hiking and work. However, these high-altitude environments pose risks of hypoxia, which can lead to various acute or chronic cerebral diseases. These conditions include common neurological diseases such as acute mountain sickness (AMS), high-altitude cerebral edema, and altitude-related cerebrovascular diseases, as well as psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression, and psychosis. However, reviews of altitude-related neuropsychiatric conditions and their potential mechanisms are rare. Methods: We conducted searches on PubMed and Google Scholar, exploring existing literature encompassing preclinical and clinical studies. Our aim was to summarize the prevalent neuropsychiatric diseases induced by altitude hypoxia, the potential pathophysiological mechanisms, as well as the available pharmacological and nonpharmacological strategies for prevention and intervention. Results: The development of altitude-related cerebral diseases may arise from various pathogenic processes, including neurovascular alterations associated with hypoxia, cytotoxic responses, activation of reactive oxygen species, and dysregulation of the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2. Furthermore, the interplay between hypoxia-induced neurological and psychiatric changes is believed to play a role in the progression of brain damage. Conclusions: While there is some evidence pointing to pathophysiological changes in hypoxia-induced brain damage, the precise mechanisms responsible for neuropsychiatric alterations remain elusive. Currently, the range of prevention and intervention strategies available is primarily focused on addressing AMS, with a preference for prevention rather than treatment.

刘、Bo、袁敏兰、杨梅、朱鸿儒、张伟。高海拔缺氧对神经精神功能的影响。High Alt-Med Biol 00:000-0002023。背景:近年来,从事高海拔活动越来越受欢迎,如徒步旅行和工作。然而,这些高海拔环境会带来缺氧的风险,从而导致各种急性或慢性脑疾病。这些疾病包括常见的神经系统疾病,如急性山地病(AMS)、高原脑水肿和高原相关的脑血管疾病,以及焦虑、抑郁和精神病等精神疾病。然而,对海拔高度相关的神经精神状况及其潜在机制的综述很少。方法:我们在PubMed和Google Scholar上进行搜索,探索包括临床前和临床研究在内的现有文献。我们的目的是总结高原缺氧诱导的常见神经精神疾病、潜在的病理生理机制,以及可用于预防和干预的药理学和非药理学策略。结果:高原相关脑疾病的发展可能由各种致病过程引起,包括与缺氧相关的神经血管改变、细胞毒性反应、活性氧的激活以及缺氧诱导因子-1和核因子红系2相关因子2的表达失调。此外,缺氧诱导的神经和精神变化之间的相互作用被认为在脑损伤的进展中发挥了作用。结论:虽然有一些证据表明缺氧诱导的脑损伤发生了病理生理变化,但导致神经精神改变的确切机制仍然难以捉摸。目前,可用的一系列预防和干预策略主要集中在解决AMS问题上,倾向于预防而非治疗。

Woyke, Simon, Anja Hütter, Christopher Rugg, Willi Tröger, Bernd Wallner, Mathias Ströhle, and Peter Paal. Sex differences in mountain bike accidents in Austria from 2006 to 2018: a retrospective analysis. High Alt Med Biol. 25:89-93, 2024. Introduction: Mountain biking is becoming increasingly popular, and mountain bike (MTB) accidents are on the rise. The aim of this study was to assess sex differences in mountain biking accidents in the Austrian Alps. Methods: This retrospective study includes all MTB accidents in Austria from 2006 to 2018. Data were collected by Alpine Police officers and recorded in a national digital registry. Results: The accidents involved 5,095 mountain bikers (81% men and 19% women). The number of MTB accidents rose markedly from 208 in 2006 to 725 in 2018. Men wore a helmet more often than did women (95% vs. 92%; p = 0.001). The most common injury category was "wound/bleeding" for both sexes (men 40% and women 41%). Women were more frequently transported by helicopter or terrestrially (p > 0.001). Conclusion: In the Austrian Alps, the number of MTB accidents more than tripled between 2006 and 2018. Women were involved in only one fifth of all accidents. Sex differences in MTB accidents include (1) women wearing helmets less often, (2) women being less frequently injured, (3) women suffering fewer serious injuries, and (4) women being more frequently transported by helicopter or terrestrially, while men more often did not require transportation.

Guo, Xinqi, Hongyu Ma, Ziye Cui, Qiyue Zhao, Ying Zhang, Lu Jia, Liping Zhang, Hui Guo, Xiangjian Zhang, Yi Zhang, Yue Guan, and Huijie Ma. Chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia reduces hypothalamic N-Methyl-d-Aspartate Receptor activity and sympathetic outflow in spontaneously hypertensive rats. High Alt Med Biol. 25:77-88, 2024. Objective: This study aims to determine the role of hypothalamic renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the antihypertensive effect of chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (CIHH). Methods: Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) received 35 days of hypobaric hypoxia simulating an altitude of 4,000 m, 5 h/day. The levels of RAS, blood pressure, and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activities of hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) presympathetic neurons from each group of rats were determined. Results: The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) of SHRs significantly decreased from the third week of CIHH treatment. This blood pressure reduction effect could be maintained for at least 2 weeks after stopping the CIHH treatment. CIHH treatment also attenuated the decrease in MAP and renal sympathetic nerve activity induced by hexamethonium administration in SHRs, but not in WKY rats. Furthermore, CIHH reversed the increase in serum angiotensin (Ang)II concentration and the expression of PVN angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and AngII type 1 (AT1) receptors, as well as the decrease in serum Ang1-7 concentration and the expression of PVN ACE2 and Mas receptors in SHRs. In addition, the administration of CIHH resulted in a reduction in the frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents and amplitude of NMDAR current in PVN presympathetic neurons of SHRs, which means that CIHH decreased the pre- and postsynaptic NMDAR activity of PVN presympathetic neurons in SHRs. However, pretreatment with A779 (a Mas receptor blocker) or AngII abrogated the above effects. Meanwhile, Ang1-7 pretreatment mimicked the CIHH effect on pre- and postsynaptic NMDAR activity of presympathetic neurons in SHRs. Conclusions: Our data indicate that CIHH reduces pre- and postsynaptic NMDAR activity of PVN presympathetic neurons, sympathetic outflow, and blood pressure by decreasing the activity of the ACE/AngII/AT1 axis and increasing the activity of ACE2/Ang1-7/Mas axis in the hypothalamus in hypertension.

Frostbite and mortality in mountaineering women: a scoping review-UIAA Medical Commission recommendations. High Alt Med Biol. 24:247-258, 2023. Background: The harsh environment of high altitudes (HA) poses many serious health risks for mountaineers, including cold injuries and death. The aim of this work was to review whether female mountaineers are at special risk for frostbite or death at HA compared with their male counterparts. Methods: The UIAA Medical Commission convened an international author team to review women's health issues at HA and to publish updated recommendations. Pertinent literature from PubMed and Cochrane was identified with additional publications found by hand search. The primary search focus was for articles assessing cold injuries and death in women mountaineers at HA. Results: We reviewed the literature and identified 20 relevant studies: 2 studies on frostbite at HA, plus 7 studies and 1 report for death at HA. An additional 10 studies about frostbite at low altitude were included. We found that female mountaineers at HA were at lower risk of death than their male counterparts, but sex differences in frostbite were inconclusive. Conclusions: The frequency of cold injuries and mortality in female mountaineers is not yet well studied, and the studies that have been published tend to lack precise exposure data. More studies and registries with sex-differentiated data are needed.

Ganoderma lucidum Induces Myogenesis Markers to Avert Damage to Skeletal Muscles in Rats Exposed to Hypobaric Hypoxia. 灵芝诱导肌肉生成标志物,避免低压缺氧对大鼠骨骼肌造成损伤
IF 1.6 4区 医学 Q4 BIOPHYSICS Pub Date : 2023-12-01 Epub Date: 2021-06-17 DOI: 10.1089/ham.2020.0172

Jatwani, Arti, and Rajkumar Tulsawani. Ganoderma lucidum induces myogenesis markers to avert damage to skeletal muscles in rats exposed to hypobaric hypoxia. High Alt Med Biol. 24:287-295, 2023. Background: Hypobaric hypoxia (HH) has been reported to induce skeletal muscle loss and impair myogenesis. Aqueous extract of G. lucidum (AqGL) contains bioactive metabolites attributed to various pharmacological effects. In this study, protective effect of AqGL in ameliorating muscle mass loss following acute HH has been reported. Materials and Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into following five groups of six rats in each group: unexposed control (Group 1), 6 hours of HH exposure (Group 2), 6 hours of HH exposure+AqGL extract 50 mg/kg body weight (BW) (Group 3), 6 hours of HH exposure+AqGL extract 100 mg/kg BW (Group 4), and 6 hours of HH exposure+AqGL extract 200 mg/kg BW (Group 5). Experimental animals from all groups, except Group, 1 were exposed to HH, simulated altitude of 25,000 ft for 6 hours. After exposure period, gastrocnemius muscle was collected, weighed, and morphological, biochemical, and molecular markers were analyzed. Results: HH-exposed rat muscle showed significant (p < 0.05) increase in oxidative stress markers (reactive oxygen species & malondialdehyde), which was concomitant with decrease in its mass compared to controls. AqGL treatment significantly (p < 0.05) prevented muscle oxidative stress, restored reduced glutathione content, reduced protein carbonyl content and advanced oxidation protein product, and restored muscle mass loss at effective dose of 100 mg/kg BW. Furthermore, AqGL supplementation enhanced Myf5 (p < 0.01), MyoD (p < 0.01), MyoG (p < 0.05), and Mrf4 (nonsignificantly), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (p < 0.01), and interleukin 6 (p < 0.01) expression along with restoration of tumor necrosis factor alpha (p < 0.001) and myostatin (p < 0.05) in hypoxia-exposed muscle, evidencing induction of myogenesis markers. Moreover, histological analysis showed increased myocyte number; nuclei shifted toward the periphery in the treatment group supporting muscle regeneration. Conclusion: AqGL supplementation attenuates muscle mass loss by preventing oxidative stress and inducing modulation in myogenesis markers under HH environment.
