Supraspinal Fatigue and Neural-evoked Responses in Lowlanders and Sherpa at 5050 m

Conclusions Although neither MVC torque loss nor development of supraspinal fatigue was different between groups, neural-evoked responses and cerebral oxygenation indices were less perturbed in Sherpa. This represents an advantage for maintenance of homeostasis, presumably due to bequeathed genotype and long-term altitude adaptations.
