Abstract:

Background Sherpa highlanders demonstrate extraordinary tolerance to hypoxia at high altitudes, which may be achieved by mechanisms promoting microcirculatory blood flow and capillary density at high altitudes for restoring oxygen supply to tissues. Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are important signaling proteins involved in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis which are stimulated by hypoxia. We hypothesize that the VEGF-A, the major member of the VEGF family, and the gene encoding VEGF-A (VEGFA) play a part in the adaptation to high-altitude hypoxia in Sherpa highlanders. Methods Fift

Abstract:

The present study “Consonantal system of Sherpa” discusses the Sherpas of Sikkim mainly settled in South and West District. According to the Census of India 2001, the total speaker of Sherpa in Sikkim is 13,922. However, Denzong Sherpa Association claims that the population of Sherpa is more than 65,000 out of which more than 32,000 people speak their Mother Tongue in their native environment particularly in the home domain. Linguistically, Robert Shafer has divided Tibeto-Burman into four main groups: Bodic, Baric, Burmic and Karenic. According to Shafer, Sherpa belongs to the Central Unit of

  <strong>ABSTRACT</strong> <em>Faalgee</em> is an ethno traditional dish of Sherpa community. It is predominantly prepared and consumed by the traditionally enriched people residing in the Himalayan region of Sikkim. Thus only few members of the old tribes of Sherpa community residing in this Himalayan region have this traditional knowledge to prepare this cereal based non-fermented dish, <em>Faalgee</em>. Our emphasis in this paper is to document this indigenous knowledge of preparation of this ethnic dish of Sherpa communities. It is basically prepared from maize seeds during August to

Abstract:

Sherpa and mountaineering are almost synonymous in Nepal. Once there was a time when Sherpa without mountaineering used to be regarded as half empty and mountaineering without Sherpa would be full empty. But the time has changed now and many numbers of non-Sherpa are taking part in the mountaineering sector. The increasing participation of non-Sherpa in mountaineering has supplemented this sector, on one hand, but in another, their participation has challenged and questioned the Sherpa’s legacy and monopoly in the mountaineering. In this regard, the paper analyzes the dichotomous relationships

Anecdotal reports suggest that Sherpa highlanders demonstrate extraordinary tolerance to hypoxia at high altitude, despite exhibiting lower arterial oxygen content than acclimatized lowlanders. This study tested the hypothesis that Sherpas exposed to hypobaric hypoxia on ascent to 5,300 m develop increased microcirculatory blood flow as a means of maintaining tissue oxygen delivery. Incident dark-field imaging was used to obtain images of the sublingual microcirculation from 64 Sherpas and 69 lowlanders.

After Nepal allowed Mount Everest ascent for foreigners in the 1950s, the number of climbing enthusiasts has been mushrooming each year. The growing number has considerably contributed to the economic development of the local Sherpas and the Nepal government alike. But it has concurrently brought threats to the local culture and the environment, which has consequently drawn serious attention of the locals, environmentalists, policy makers, and writers.

In contrast to Andean natives, high-altitude Tibetans present with a lower hemoglobin concentration that correlates with reproductive success and exercise capacity. Decades of physiological and genomic research have assumed that the lower hemoglobin concentration in Himalayan natives results from a blunted erythropoietic response to hypoxia (i.e., no increase in total hemoglobin mass). In contrast, herein we test the hypothesis that the lower hemoglobin concentration is the result of greater plasma volume, rather than an absence of increased hemoglobin production.

Abstract:

Abstract Modern machine learning methods offer great potential for increasing the efficiency of Monte Carlo event generators. We present the latest developments in the context of the SHERPA event generation framework. These include phase space sampling amended by normalizing flows and a new unweighting procedure based on neural-network surrogates for the full matrix elements. We discuss corresponding general construction criteria and show examples of efficiency gains for selected LHC production processes.

Abstract:

This paper aims to explore the influences of indigenous practices of the Sherpa community in school leadership. Purposely four Sherpa head teachers with more than five years of experience were selected from the Dolakha district. In-depth interviews were conducted for the information collection and head teachers day to day activities and their decision-making and administrative practices were observed and maintained diary. The interview records and diary notes were transcribed and developed code. Themes were developed using a similar code and analyzed thematically. The study found that Indigeno

Abstract:

1. The potential risk of brain damage when low-landers attempt to climb the highest summits is a well-known fact. However, very little is known about what occurs to Himalayan natives, perfectly adapted to high altitude, when performing the same type of activity. 2. Taking into account their long-life climbing experience at extreme altitudes, we examined seven of the most recognized Sherpas with the aim of performing a comprehensive neurological evaluation based on medical history, physical examination and magnetic resonance brain imaging. We compared them with one group of 21 lowland elite cli

Abstract:

The metabolism of glucose in mammalian heart is 25–50% more O2 efficient than the metabolism of free fatty acids. To assess the role of substrate preference in adaptations to chronic hypoxia, positron emission tomographic measurements of heart regional glucose uptake rates after an overnight fast were made in volunteer Quechua subjects and in Sherpa subjects, both indigenous to altitudes of over 3,000 m, and in a group of lowlander volunteers. Highest uptake rates were found in the Quechuas on arrival and in the Sherpas after a 3-wk period at low altitude, intermediate rates in Quechuas after

Abstract:

Based on 15 months of research conducted between 2010 and 2012, this paper examines how climate change is unfolding for Sherpas in Pharak, the southern part of Nepal's Everest region. Sherpas are noticing environmental changes, undergoing socioeconomic transformation, being introduced to climate change, and becoming exposed to multiple forms of environmental knowledge from various sources. Thus, climate change in this research emerges as an issue not contained within a single geographic territory or an academic discipline but as the product of multiple knowledge systems in addition to observab

Abstract:

The study is based on the primary data collected during 2017 and 2018 in Sikkim using the questionnaire designed by the Centre for Endangered Languages, Sikkim University. Information about number of speakers, language vitality, domains of usage and causes of language endangerment were collected from the consultants who were both male and female from age 26 to 85 years with various occupational background. The study found that though the Sherpa speakers are positive towards their language, it is quite worrisome about the sustainability of Sherpa language in practice.

Abstract Introduction The current climate change scenario poses significant challenges for mountaineering expeditions. The accelerated melting of glaciers, altered climbing conditions, and changing weather patterns are reshaping the mountaineering process. The changing climate has significantly amplified the hazards linked to climbing, leading to increased frequency and intensity of avalanches and rockfall. The objective of this study was to study the effect of climate change factors on the job of Sherpa mountaineers on expedition to Mount Everest. Materials and Methods A cross-sectional study
