Effect of ubiquinol on cardiorespiratory fitness during high-altitude acclimatization and de-acclimatization in healthy adults: the Shigatse CARdiorespiratory fitness study design.

Cardiorespiratory function influences exercise capacity and is an important determinant of high-altitude adaptation. Some studies have investigated the characteristics of changes in cardiorespiratory fitness during high-altitude acclimatization. However, studies on changes in cardiorespiratory fitness during high-altitude de-acclimatization are still lacking and have not yet been elucidated.

Simultaneous extracting area and quantity of agricultural greenhouses in large scale with deep learning method and high-resolution remote sensing images.

Greenhouses are an important part of modern facility-based agriculture. While creating well-being for human society, greenhouses also bring negative impacts such as air pollution, soil pollution, and water pollution. Therefore, it is of great significance to obtain information such as the area and quantity of greenhouses.

Prediction of High-Altitude Cardiorespiratory Fitness Impairment Using a Combination of Physiological Parameters During Exercise at Sea Level and Genetic Information in an Integrated Risk Model.

Insufficient cardiorespiratory compensation is closely associated with acute hypoxic symptoms and high-altitude (HA) cardiovascular events. To avoid such adverse events, predicting HA cardiorespiratory fitness impairment (HA-CRFi) is clinically important. However, to date, there is insufficient information regarding the prediction of HA-CRFi.

Blood pressure and left ventricular function changes in different ambulatory blood pressure patterns at high altitude.

Acute high-altitude (HA) exposure induces physiological responses of the heart and blood pressure (BP). However, few studies have investigated the responses associated with dipper and non-dipper BP patterns. In this prospective study, 72 patients underwent echocardiography and 24-h ambulatory BP testing at sea level and HA.

The Circulating MicroRNA-206 Level Predicts the Severity of Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients with Left Heart Diseases.

Background: MicroRNA-206 (miR-206), a muscle-specific miRNA, regulates the growth of cardiac myocytes and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. However, it remains unknown whether miR-206 is involved in pulmonary hypertension (PH) due to left heart diseases (PH-LHD). This study was designed to investigate the correlation between miR-206 and PH in patients with LHD.

Association of Circulating IGFBP1 Level with the Severity of Coronary Artery Lesions in Patients with Unstable Angina.

Local IGFBP1 level was reported to affect the development of coronary artery plaque. This study investigated the association of circulating IGFBP1 level with the severity of coronary artery lesions in patients with unstable angina. In 112 consecutive patients with clinically diagnosed unstable angina, admitted from July 2014 to July 2015, we studied the correlations of circulating IGFBP1 and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD).
