However, multidisciplinary longitudinal investigations into these multiorgan responses remain limited. This prospective observational study aimed to investigate the cardiovascular, metabolic, renal, and hepatic responses to a subacute high-altitude expedition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>21 Caucasian participants (14 men and 7 women) participated during a Himalayan trek expedition up to 5050\u00a0m. Measurements included: cardiovascular parameters (HR, BP) evaluated at five points (baseline (T0), intermediate ascent (T0a), peak (T1), intermediate descent (T1a), post-trek (T2)); comprehensive biochemical parameters (renal, hepatic, and lipid markers) collected at four time points: baseline (T0), peak altitude (T1), post-trek (T2), and a several-month follow-up (T3); body weight at three points (T0, T1, T2) and dietary intake.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Ascent induced significant increases in HR and BP, with DAP remaining elevated during descent. At peak altitude, the A\/G ratio decreased while U\/C and GFR increased, alongside reductions in creatinine and body weight. Despite a severe energy deficit (44\u201352% below predicted TDEE) and high lipid intake, total cholesterol, LDL, and HDL decreased significantly. Notably, markers of hepatic and muscular injury (AST, ALT, ALP, CK) remained stable throughout the expedition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Subacute high-altitude trekking imposes a selective physiological strain rather than uniform systemic stress. The body prioritizes vital hemodynamic and renal adaptations; at the same time, despite a negative energy balance, it exhibits organ-specific resilience, as demonstrated by hepatic and muscular stability. Finally, the complete recovery of markers at follow-up confirms these multisystemic shifts are highly adaptive and non-pathological.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00421-026-06410-7","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,29]],"date-time":"2026-08-29T12:25:52Z","timestamp":1788006352000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Differential homeostatic reorganization during high-altitude trekking: multisystemic adaptations and organ-specific resilience"],"prefix":"10.1007","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-5859-5869","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manuel","family":"Marzola","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matteo","family":"De Angelis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lucrezia","family":"Lacordara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ariadna Micaela","family":"Lucero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gerardo","family":"Bosco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simona","family":"Mrakic-Sposta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vittore","family":"Verratti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"6410_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"5553","DOI":"10.1113\/JP284166","volume":"601","author":"C Arnaud","year":"2023","unstructured":"Arnaud C, Billoir E, de Melo Junior AF et al (2023) Chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced cardiovascular and renal dysfunction: from adaptation to maladaptation.
