Objective To investigate the role of autonomic nerve system(ANS)in the pathogenesis of acute mountain sickness(AMS).Methods A hypobaric chamber was used to simulate 4500m altitude for 1 day.The function of ANS of 43 healthy young males was measured individually before the experiment,and then at a “height” of 4500m for 5min.GJB1098-91 clinical questionnaires were conducted to evaluate the AMS symptomatic scores.HRV was measured respectively before the test and 2h,10h,20h at 4500m;cold pressure test(CPT)and plasma concentration of NA were determined before the test and at 4500m,AMS scores were evaluated at the end of exposure.25 subjects with AMS scores of 10 or less were identified as mild AMS group(group A),and another 18 subjects with scores of over 10 were gathered as moderately severe AMS group(group B).Results Compared with group A,the systolic pressure(SP)during CPT increased markedly in group B(P
