No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To explore the effects of negative ions generated by an ion converter on the high-altitude acclimatization of healthy populations and their impact on serum HIF1 (hypoxia-inducible factor 1) and PWC170 index after entering high-altitude areas.

Conditions

  • Negative Air Ions
  • Altitude Sickness
  • High-altitude Adaptation

Interventions

DEVICE

Air negative ion intervention study

The observation group received air negative ion intervention every night for one week before entering the plateau (from 22:00 to 06:00). Before entering the plateau, they were in Putian City, China, where the temperature was about 28°C, humidity was about 68%, and the concentration of negative ions was approximately 800/cm³. The air negative ion converter used was the Mi Energy ET-21 model from RELTEC Medical Devices Corporation. Air negative and positive ion concentrations were measured using an ion detector (NKMH-103, HOKUTO, Japan) to ensure that each participant's room had a negative ion concentration of around 100,000/cm³.

DEVICE

No air negative ion intervention
