A Follow-up Investigation on the Acclimatization Process of Han Chinese College Students from Low-land Areas
Objective To track and investigate changing patterns of the physiological indicators related to high-altitude acclimatization among Han Chinese college students who have just entered the plateau.Methods From March 9 to September 21,2023,the physiological indexes of 107 Han Chinese college students,who enrolled in Tibet University in the spring of 2022,were tracked and recorded,and 149 Tibetan students enrolled in the same year and 74 Han students enrolled in the autumn of 2023 were used as controls.Result The oxygen saturation and heart rate of Han college students were significantly higher than those of native Tibetan college students,while there was no significant difference in hemoglobin concentration,HB,SaO2,and HR presented increasing,decreasing,and increasing trends,respectively,and these three parameters all showed turning points two months later after entering high altitude.Conclusion HB,SaO2,and HR of Han Chinese college students who have just entered high-altitude show a consistent and correlated trend towards allcimatization.It is indicated that people who migrate to high-altitude areas develop acclimatization about two months after their arrival.
