ACE gene polymorphism and erythropoietin in endurance athletes at moderate altitude
Article Abstract:
A study examines the role of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion-deletion (I/D) gene polymorphism on erythropoietic response in endurance athletes after natural exposure to moderate altitude. It is concluded that the ACE gene polymorphism does not influence erythropoietic activity in endurance athletes after short-term exposure to moderate altitude.

Aerobic and anaerobic power characteristics of off-road cyclists
Article Abstract:
A study of 60 male cyclists shows that more anaerobic power is used more than aerobic power to maintain speed and endurance.
