Clinical trials: Hypobaric Hypoxia
Major Depressive Disorder
Placebo-controlled Trial of 5-hydroxytryptophan and Creatine for SSRI or SNRI Augmentation in Treatment Resistant Depression in Females
The investigators propose to determine if 8 weeks of dietary augmentation with oral 5g creatine monohydrate daily and 100 mg of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) twice daily reduces hypoxia-related depressive symptoms measured by the…

Glucose Metabolism, High Altitude
High Altitude and Exogenous Carbohydrate Oxidation
Recent studies have reported that oxidation of exogenous carbohydrate is reduced under acute hypobaric hypoxic (high altitude; HA) conditions compared to normoxia (sea level; SL) in native lowlanders.
