Abstract

Objective: To identify associations of maternal hemoglobin (Hb) with perinatal outcomes at low and moderate altitudes in Peru. Methods: Study of records with sequential information using perinatal database system. The study included 295 651 pregnant women with their products. Using multiple logistic regression analysis, we estimated the probability of stillbirths, preterm and small for gestational age (SGA) births associated with maternal Hb levels at low (01999 m) and moderate altitudes (20002999 m). Results: Maternal Hb decreased as pregnancy progressed from first to third trimester at both altitudes. Hb was higher at moderate than at low altitude (p

Abstract

Life at high altitudes (>4000m) is associated with higher erythropoiesis. Haemoglobin ≥21gdl-1 is considered as excessive erythrocytosis and is a sign of chronic mountain sickness (CMS). The present study was designed to determine an association between serum testosterone (T) and serum oestradiol (E2) levels with the score of CMS. One hundred and seventeen men natives from low altitude (150m) and 103 men natives from high altitude (4340m) were studied. The presence of breathlessness or palpitations, sleep disturbance, cyanosis, dilatation of veins, paraesthesia, headaches, tinnitus and Hb ≥21gdl-1, have been included for the CMS score. Men living at high altitude had higher CMS score (P
