Research Progress on the Effects of Acute High Altitude Hypoxia Exposure on Platelets
Abstract:Epidemiological surveys have shown that the incidence of thrombosis in high-altitude areas is 30 times that of sea level areas [1]. According to the World Health Organization, the area of high-altitude regions (>2,500 m) is about 30 million square kilometers, with a population of more than 140 million, accounting for about 15% in China [2], and approximately 100 million tourists visit high-altitude areas each year [3]. Rapid ascent to high altitude areas further increases the incidence of thrombosis.
