Spleen Size and Function in Sherpa Living High, Sherpa Living Low and Nepalese Lowlanders
High-altitude (HA) natives have evolved some beneficial responses leading to superior work capacity at HA compared to native lowlanders. Our aim was to study two responses potentially protective against hypoxia: the spleen contraction elevating hemoglobin concentration (Hb) and the cardiovascular di...
