    Author: Moore LG, Curran-Everett L, Droma TS, Groves BM, McCullough RE, McCullough RG, Sun SF, Sutton JR, Zamudio S, Zhuang JG.
    Journal: Int J Sports Med; 1992 Oct; 13 Suppl 1():S86-8. PubMed ID: 1483804.
    Abstract:
    Evidence is reviewed from our recent (1987-1991) investigations which demonstrate better high-altitude adaptation among Tibetans than in acclimatized newcomers or other lifelong high-altitude residents. Characteristics of oxygen transport contributing to the Tibetans' remarkable exercise performance are described.
