TL;DR
Normoxic and hypoxic training was associated with significant improvements in selected risk factors and exercise capacity and invoked an additive cardioprotective effect which may have important clinical implications.
Abstract
Normoxic and hypoxic training was associated with significant improvements in selected risk factors and exercise capacity. The stimulus of intermittent normobaric hypoxia invoked an additive cardioprotective effect which may have important clinical implications.

Clinical ChemistryEstimation of the Concentration of Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Plasma, Without Use of the Preparative Ultracentrifuge
32,475 Citations1972William T. Friedewald, Robert I. Levy +1 more
A method for estimating the cholesterol content of the serum low-density lipoprotein fraction (Sf0-20) is presented and comparison of this suggested procedure with the more direct procedure, in which the ultracentrifuge is used, yielded correlation coefficients of .94 to .99.

Journal of Applied Physiology“Living high-training low”: effect of moderate-altitude acclimatization with low-altitude training on performance
710 Citations1997Benjamin D. Levine, James Stray‐Gundersen
Four weeks of living high-training low improves sea-level running performance in trained runners due to altitude acclimatization and maintenance of sea- level training velocities, most likely accounting for the increase in velocity at VO2 max and MSS.

The epidemiological survey questionnaire, when properly designed and administered, can measure effectively energy intake, energy retention, energy expenditure, physiological fitness, quality of life, and health maintenance.
Journal of Applied PhysiologyDefining hypoxia: a systems view of VO2, glycolysis, energetics, and intracellular PO2
394 Citations1990R. J. Connett, C. R. Honig +2 more
Since responses to stress are distributed according to the state of the entire system, several simultaneous metabolic measurements, including intracellular PO2 and the O2 dependence of a measurable function are required to judge the adequacy of O2 supply.
International Journal of Sports MedicineA New Approach for the Determination of Ventilatory and Lactate Thresholds
357 Citations1992Ben‐Chung Cheng, H. Kuipers +4 more
The Dmax method appears to be an objective and reliable method for threshold determination, which can be applied to various ventilatory or metabolic variables yet yield similar results and showed that breathing frequency can be used to determine VT.
Journal of Applied PhysiologyOxygen transport during steady-state submaximal exercise in chronic hypoxia
217 Citations1991Eugene E. Wolfel, Bertron Μ. Groves +9 more
Both total body and leg O2 delivery decrease after arrival at 4,300 m and remain unchanged with acclimatization as a result of a parallel fall in both cardiac output and leg blood flow and an increase in arterial O2 content.

102 Citations1998Matías A. Ávila, M.Victoria Carretero +2 more
No-mediated inactivation and transcriptional arrest seem to be the two major pathways by which oxygen levels control hepatic methionine adenosyltransferase, the enzyme necessary for methylation reactions and for the synthesis of polyamines and glutathione.
European Journal of Applied PhysiologyImplications of moderate altitude training for sea-level endurance in elite distance runners
83 Citations1998Damian M. Bailey, Bruce Davies +4 more
Elite distance runners participated in one of two studies designed to investigate the effects of moderate altitude training on submaximal, maximal and supramaximal exercise performance following return to sea-level, and demonstrated that hypoxia per se did not alter performance.
American Journal of Physiology-Cell PhysiologyEffect of altered arterial O2 tensions on muscle metabolism in dog skeletal muscle during fatiguing work
60 Citations1986Michael C. Hogan, H. Gilbert Welch
It is concluded that alterations in arterial O2 tension during fatiguing contractions induce changes in blood and muscle acid-base status and in muscle metabolism that are independent of O2 uptake.
European Journal of Applied PhysiologyArterial hypoxemia and performance during intense exercise
52 Citations1994Maria Koskolou, Donald C. McKenzie
It is concluded that maximal performance capacity is significantly impaired in highly trained cyclists working under an %SaO2 level of 87% but not under a milder desaturation level of 90%.
European Heart JournalFitness in the fit: does physical conditioning affect cardiovascular risk factors in middle-aged marathon runners?
25 Citations1996Reinhard G. Ketelhut, Kerstin Ketelhut +2 more
It is concluded that even at the extreme end of a continuum such as represented by well-conditioned, middle-aged marathon runners, cardiovascular risk factors are related to the degree of fitness, as measured by the marathon running time.
