| | MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Cerebral hypoxia |
 | | Cerebral hypoxia is a medical emergency with every moment critical to meaningful survival. | | | Cerebral hypoxia can usually be deduced from the clinical history and examination. | | | Severe cases result in a state of complete unawareness and unresponsiveness -- brain stem reflexes, including pupillary response to light and breathing reflex, stop. |

| | The shortage of oxygen in the human body results in a condition called hypoxia, which simply means oxygen starvation. | | | Your mind no longer functions properly; your hands and feet become clumsy without being aware of it; you may feel drowsy, languid, and nonchalant; you have a false sense of security; and, the last thing in the world you think you need is oxygen. | | | But hypoxia - by its nature, a grim deceiver - makes you feel confident that you are doing a better job of flying than you have ever done before. |

| | Hypoxia and Mitochondrial Inhibitors Regulate Expression of Glucose Transporter-1 via Distinct Cis-acting Sequences -- ... |
| | Although the primary aim of this work was to analyze responses to hypoxia and mitochondrial inhibitors, activation of the Glut-1 5` enhancer by both PMA and hypoxia provided an opportunity to study the action of PMA on the hypoxically inducible response. | | | The possibility that the final characteristics of an inducible response arise from the integration of influences from different systems must be considered when comparing the physiological characteristics of a response. | | | In this study, we have analyzed the transciptional regulation of the glucose transporter Glut-1 as an example of such a response. |

| | What hasn't been proved, however, is to what extent various sources contribute to the hypoxia problem and which corrective measures, if any, could be employed to address the situation. | | | Ecologist Nancy Rabalais, one of the leading researchers on hypoxia, has conducted thorough studies in the Gulf. | | | "Much discussion has centered on the lack of assessment that a major hypoxia problem exists," said Griffith. |

| | Ecosystem Description - Hypoxia in the Gulf Of Mexico |
| | Hypoxia affects living resources, biological diversity, and the capacity of aquatic systems to support biological populations. | | | There is evidence, for example, that carbon burial in 1993 was sufficient to support the extensive 1994 hypoxic zone despite "normal" flow conditions (Justic et al., 1997). | | | A few directed studies in 1975-1976 (Ragan et al., 1978; Turner and Allen, 1982) and a series of environmental assessments revealed midsummer hypoxia in many inner shelf areas. |

| | Hypoxia means "low oxygen." In estuaries, lakes, and coastal waters low oxygen usually means a concentration of less than 2 parts per million. | | | Hypoxia can cause fish to leave the area and can cause stress or death to bottom dwelling organisms that can't move out of the hypoxic zone. | | | This lack of mixing limits the replenishment by oxygen and sustains the hypoxic zone. |
