Serum glucose level in severe acute exogenous normobaric hypoxia in humans at rest

摘要: The study of the effect acute normobaric hypoxia, which was simulated by inhalation oxygen-nitrogen mixture containing 8% oxygen, corresponds to its partial pressure at an altitude 7000 m above sea level, conducted in a group apparently healthy men (aged 19–23 years, n = 10). biochemical analysis during test included determining glucose, pyruvate, and lactate levels venous blood; hemoglobin content, pH, hematocrit, oxygen carbon dioxide pressures, saturation with oxygen. It shown that, fifth minute serum glucose level decreased significantly (p < 0.05) compared background. However, on whole, maximal decrease 0.76 mM, lowest individual parameter values did not below 4.0 mM. restored background tenth testing. suggested that syncopal form hypoxia humans is unlikely be linked development hypoglycemia.
