Previous literature suggests that thrombosis is more common in lowlanders sojourning at high altitude (HA) compared to near-sea-level. Though the pathophysiology partly understood, little known of its epidemiology. To elucidate this, an observational prospective longitudinal study was conducted healthy soldiers for months HA. A total 960 male subjects were screened plains, which 750 ascended, altitudes above 15,000ft (4,472m). Clinical examination, haemogram, coagulogram, markers...
