How moderate altitude affects memory for future tasks
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how being at moderate altitude (with lower oxygen) affects your memory for future tasks (like remembering to do something). If you're healthy and pass the screening, you would participate in a controlled test of your memory in a simulated altitude environment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a healthy adult volunteer.
- You need to be able to understand French.
- No heart, lung, blood, brain, or metabolic conditions (like diabetes).
- No history of seizures, fainting, migraines, or high blood pressure.
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding, and not taking any medications except birth control.
- No recent high-altitude travel (above 3,500 meters) in the past 3 months.

This trial looks at what happens to people with anxiety and depressive symptoms after going to high altitude with low oxygen. It may help researchers understand whether altitude affects these symptoms and how it might be managed.
This study tests how your heart’s right ventricle handles low oxygen (like at high altitude) in healthy adults. You will be exposed to a low-oxygen environment for a short time to see how your heart responds.
This study tests how your heart's right ventricle adapts when you breathe lower-oxygen air (like at high altitude). If you have well-controlled asthma, researchers want to see if your heart handles the challenge differently.
This study tests how your body handles working in heat when you are also at a simulated high altitude. The results could help understand physical limits and safety in jobs or sports.
This study looks at how the right side of the heart responds to low oxygen levels in people who have had high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in the past. It will help researchers better understand right heart function.
This study tests whether exercising in a low-oxygen environment (like high altitude) can affect stress, inflammation, and energy in your body. It is for young males who are generally healthy and can exercise safely.
