[Auszug] The high altitude station was in Puno, a town on Lake Titicaca in the Altiplano (3,850m; barometric pressure = 484 torr; PIO2 = 91 torr) and the laboratory at low altitude was established in Tacna (800m; barometric pressure = 715 torr; PIo2 = 139 torr). Subjects were selected from the indigenous ...
