Top climbers can reach smaller suffer brain damage each time the highest points slopes of the highest mountains in the world, scientists say. Italian researchers examined before the world-class climber and after the expedition. It was found that the climbers are changes in the brain, while apparently not no new neurological problems surfaced. The study was published in the European Journal of Neurology. The most likely cause of damage is the lack of oxygen at high altitudes, they say. Most climbers know that can climb to a height of about 8000 meters above sea level, leading to brain damage. However, the researchers could see that the climb to the top of the lower, in the range of 3,000 meters, which also lead smaller brain damage. Scientists have not been able to identify significant changes in the neurological disorder, but with regular repetitive climb the highest mountains can damage the brain, could influence may both the memory and on the overall functionality of the brain, said the expert.
