Dear Stephen, thank you for your response and interest. We are not aware of any association between residing at high altitude and PD incidence. Some possible arguments for this have been noted by others in the comments. One of the most important arguments for us is that our body adjusts fairly quickly to such hypoxic circumstances, and as highlighted in the presentation, repeated exposure is necessary for hypoxic conditioning. Compare this to interval training, HIIT, etc.
