Most studies were conducted between 3,500 and 4,000 m. The primary pooled PVR estimate was 2.4 WU (2.0\u20132.8 WU), which slightly exceeds the sea level upper limit of normal (2.0\u20132.2 WU). Following exclusion of high-risk-of-bias studies, the estimate decreased to 2.2 WU (1.9\u20132.5 WU), approaching the upper limit of normal.
