The association of angiotensin-converting enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphisms with acute mountain sickness susceptibility: a meta-analysis.

High altitude medicine & biology - 1 Dec 2012

Luo Yongjun, Chen Yu, Zhang Yao, Gao Yuqi

Abstract excerpt

Altitude exposure in nonacclimatized subjects may lead to acute mountain sickness (AMS). AMS is defined as headache upon recent arrival to altitude and may be accompanied by loss of appetite, nausea or vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, and poor sleep. Susceptibility for AMS varies and has been linked to angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene polymorphisms. We performed a meta-analysis of studies to assess the...
