The impact that any stressor is likely to have on immune function is dependent on whether the stress is acute or chronic, the se

Thus the availability of oxygen at the mitochondrial level to produce ATP via oxidative phosphorylation is also reduced. This require

The physiological changes in sleep and in the breathing pattern during high altitude exposure consist mainly in a reduction of deep sleep and an increase in arousals which are related in part to periodic breathing with central apneas/hypopneas.
