    Steady-state cerebral blood flow regulation at altitude: interaction between oxygen and carbon dioxide

    High-altitude ascent imposes a unique cerebrovascular challenge due to two opposing blood gas chemostimuli. Specifically, hypoxia causes cerebral vasodilation, whereas respiratory-induced hypocapnia causes vas...

    What Is the Point of the Peak? Assessing Steady-State Respiratory Chemoreflex Drive in High Altitude Field Studies

    Measurements of central and peripheral respiratory chemoreflexes are important in the context of high altitude as indices of ventilatory acclimatization. However, respiratory chemoreflex tests have many caveat...
