Abstract excerpt
Red cell haemoglobin (Hb), haematocrit (Ht), 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were measured in 876 individuals from six villages at two altitude levels (altiplano and coast) of the Departmento de Arica of Northern Chile. Of these, data on 761 individuals are s...
