Larger FVC and FEV 1 among Tibetans compared to Han born and raised at high altitude
OBJECTIVES: This study compares forced vital capacity (FVC) and Forced Expiratory Volume at 1 Second (FEV1 ) of Tibetans with those of Han who were born and raised at high altitude. MATERIALS AND METHODS: FVC and FEV1 tests were conducted among 1,063 children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 20 years, and 184 adults between the ages of 21 and 39 years who had lived their entire lives at 3200 m, 3800 m and 4300 m in Qinghai Provence, Peop…
Responses of Han Migrants Compared to Tibetans at High Altitude
While many studies have compared Tibetans and low‐altitude born Han living at high altitude, few have carefully controlled the chronological age at which lowlanders migrated, the length of time they had lived at high altitude, their nutrition, and their socio‐economic status. This has produced an array of results that frequently do not support the hypothesis that Tibetans and Han show fundamental differences in their response to hypoxia. Unlike t…
Morphological growth and thorax dimensions among Tibetan compared to Han children, adolescents and young adults born and raised at high altitude
Although genetic similarities cannot be ruled out, comparable dietary stress is a likely explanation for the similar and slow morphological growth of Han and Tibetans at high altitude. However, Han-Tibetan differences in thorax dimensions are likely a consequence of population (genetic) differences in the response to hypoxia during growth
Hematological differences during growth among Tibetans and Han Chinese born and raised at high altitude in Qinghai, China
This study describes the hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and hematocrit (HCT) of over 1,000 Tibetan and Han children, adolescents, and young adults who were born and raised at 3,200 m, 3,800 m, or 4,300 m in Qinghai Province, western China. At 3,200 m, no altitude effect is evident in the hematological characteristics of either group. At 3,800 m and 4,300 m, both groups show [Hb] and HCT values that are above low‐altitude norms. At both altitudes…
Lung function of Han Chinese born and raised near sea level and at high altitude in Western China
Forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV 1 ), and FEV 1 /FVC ratios were determined for 531 individuals of Han Chinese descent living at low altitude (250 m) near Beijing and for 592 individuals of Han descent who were born and raised at three high altitudes (3,200 m, 3,800 m, 4,300 m) in Qinghai Province, P.R.C. The study included males and females, ages 6–51 years. Thorax widths, depths, and circumferences of Han f…
Morphological growth of Han boys and girls born and raised near sea level and at high altitude in western China
This study compares the morphological characteristics of Han children, adolescents, and young adults who were born at 250 m near Beijing and at three high altitudes in Qinghai Province, Peoples Republic of China (3,200 m, 3,800 m, and 4,300 m). From ages 6 through 15, Han children growing up at high altitudes are significantly shorter, lighter, have less fat, and are less muscular than Han children growing up at low altitude. However, older adole…

Growth of Qinghai Tibetans living at three different high altitudes
This study compares the stature, weight, skinfolds, upper arm muscle area, and chest dimensions of Tibetan children, adolescents, and young adults who were born and raised, or who had lived from infancy, at 3,200 m, 3,800 m, and 4,300 m in Qinghai Province, People's Republic of China. While the individuals measured in Qinghai are among the tallest and heaviest Tibetans reported in the literature, they are nevertheless smaller and lighter than wel…
