[A comparison of rate human lipid profile changes at moderate altitude]

The paper studies antiatherogenic changes of serum lipid profile in various conditions, namely: 1) the mountain and climatic treatment on Caucasian resorts, 2) periodic hypobaric therapy, 3) trekking in mountains with regular cold tests (the Tibetan yoga gTum-mo). We made the comparison of rate of change of serum total cholesterol, high (HDL), low (LDL) and very low density (VLDL) lipoproteins, and also triglycerides by use of exponential model of changes of lipid profile. By application of new computing algorithm it was proved that the maximal rate of antiatherogenic changes of serum lipid profile (decrease in the total cholesterol and in LDL, increase in HDL) is characteristic for a combination of three conditions: 1) moderate altitude hypoxia, 2) moderate physical activities and 3) special exercises for increase of cold tolerance (the Tibetan yoga gTum-mo).
