An investigation was made on the changes of the blood elements on the subjects, who climbed Northern Japan Alps.
The results are as follows:
1) Erythrocytes show slight fluctuation in number in early stage, but increase in terminal stage.
2) The amount of hemoglobin decreases in early stage, then it recovers.
Above results show that color index is hypochromic, compared with that measured before climbing.
3) The value of hematocrit increases in terminal stage and the increased volume of blood cells is recognized.
4) Eosinophiles markedly decrease in initial stage, and recover in terminal stage in most of the examined subjects.
5) In serum protein, total protein fluctuates slightly in initial stage, and decreases in terminal stage, A/G ratio and albumin fraction decreases slightly initially, and distinctly decreases terminally, α-globulin fraction slightly increases in terminal stage, and γ-globulin shows distinct increase.
6) The concentration of blood creatinine shows no marked change.
7) In regard to urine protein, half of the subjects presented slight albuminuria initially, and none observed terminally.
