Eleven healthy young men native to high altitude underwent haemodynamic studies at their original place of residence and after two years' residence at sea level. The investigation sought to determine the long-term effects of the suppression of the hypoxic stimulus upon heart rate, cardiac output, and pulmonary artery pressure of highlanders. For comparative purposes the influence of oxygen inhalation at high altitude was also studied. The heart rate fell at sea level and bradycardia was seen in most of the cases. The fall in heart rate is probably related to an increase in the predominance of the parasympathetic nervous sys-
