Inflammation in Pulmonary Hypertension and Edema Induced by Hypobaric Hypoxia Exposure

Inflammation in Pulmonary Hypertension and Edema Induced by Hypobaric Hypoxia Exposure

Exposure to high altitudes generates a decrease in the partial pressure of oxygen, triggering a hypobaric hypoxic condition. This condition produces pathophysiologic alterations in an organism. In the lung, one of the principal responses to hypoxia is the development of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstri...
