The dependence of maximum oxygen uptake and utilization (V̇O2max) on hemoglobin‐oxygen affinity and altitude
Abstract Oxygen transport from the lungs to peripheral tissue is dependent on the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen. Recent experimental data have suggested that the maximum human capacity for oxygen uptake and utilization (V̇O2max) at sea level and altitude (~3000 m) is sensitive to alterations in...
