Excerpt

Studies under extreme physiological conditions can be very enlightening to understand the organism´s mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis, and, in particular, an adequate oxygen delivery to the organs and tissues. Several circumstances can challenge oxygen homeostasis. For instance, ascent to high altitude may jeopardize proper body oxygen supply; diving with oxygen may result in non-physiological hyperoxia; and circulatory failure may result in organ dysfunction, therefore triggering compensatory physiological reactions in order to restore homeostasis. …
