摘要: in the fall of 1981 American Medical Research Expedition to Everest completed a series physiological and psychological studies on mountaineers ascending summit Mount Everest. This expedition afforded unique opportunity observe consequences extreme, sustained hypoxia human cerebral function. The goal was ascertain whether exposing healthy acclimatized individuals extreme high altitude causes long-term alterations cognition or behavior indicative hypoxic brain dysfunction.
