Extreme altitude induces divergent mass reduction of right and left ventricle in mountain climbers

Mountain climbing at high altitude implies exposure to low levels of oxygen, low temperature, wind, physical and psychological stress, and nutritional insufficiencies. We examined whether right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) myocardial masses were reversibly altered by exposure to extrem...
