Evidence for a genetic basis for altitude-related illness.

High altitude medicine & biology - 1 Jan 2006

Rupert Jim L, Koehle Michael S

Abstract excerpt

Altitude-related illnesses are a family of interrelated pulmonary, cerebral, hematological, and cardiovascular medical conditions associated with the diminished oxygen availability at moderate to high altitudes. The acute forms of these debilitating and potentially fatal conditions, which include acute mountain sickness (AMS), high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), and high altitude cerebral edema (HACE), often...
