AMS+, participant with acute mountain sickness (AMS); AMS−, participant without AMS; BP, blood pressure; SBP, systolic BP; DBP, diastolic BP; HR, heart rate; SpO2, pulse oxygen saturation; TOI, tissue oxygenation indices. *Means parameters are significantly different between AMS+ and AMS− groups at 4,500 m with p value < 0.05; ∗∗Means parameters are significantly different between AMS+ and AMS− groups at 4,500 m with p value < 0.01.
