The Study on Effects of Acute Exposure to High Altitude Hypoxia on Cognitive Function in Lowlanders

View on ClinicalTrials.gov Updated Dec 15, 2025

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of rapid elevation to 3,800 meters on the cognitive function of low-altitude residents through a plateau field and plain control study, and explore the objective indicators related to the impaired cognitive function.

Detailed Description

This study intends to recruit 60 healthy young people residing in plain area to 3000 m. Participants were divided into two groups: the plateau group (N=30) and the plain group (N=30). Firstly, we collected baseline data one week before the plateau group rushed to the plateau, and then repeated the above data collection at the same time on day 1 (3-5 hours after arrival), day 2, day 3, day 5, and day 7 after entering the plateau. The plain group was studied in the plain according to the same test plan. Finally, analyze and find out the main types of cognitive impairment, and explore the physiological prediction index, including exploring the characteristics of EEG changes before and after entering the plateau.

Primary Outcomes

Measure: Cognitive impairment after an altitude of 3,800 meters
TimeFrame: 7 days
Description: To assess cognitive function, we used CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive test. The core CNS Vital Signs "BRIEF-CORE" neurocognitive assessment battery consists of seven subtests: Verbal Memory (VBM), Visual Memory (VIM), Finger Tapping (FTT), Symbol Digit Coding (SDC), Stroop Test (ST), Rat Attention Test (SAT) and the Continuous Performance Test (CPT). Based on the above 7 test results, the quantitative evaluation results of 11 cognitive functions, including complex memory, graphic memory, vocabulary memory, psychomotor speed, motor speed, processing speed, reaction time, cognitive flexibility, executive function, complex attention and simple attention, were generated. By comparing the cognitive function at different stages before and after entering the plateau, we will find out the impaired cognitive function.
