Resumen:

AIM: To determine the variation of hemoglobin (Hb) in two groups of miners working at different altitudes. METHODOLOGY: A longitudinal study conducted in a private company. Hb was obtained from entrance exams and annual checks of workers at two locations: at sea level and at Peruvian highlands (4,100 m), taken by trained staff and equipment calibrated to environmental conditions. We analyzed variations in the course of the years with the PA-GEE statistical test; p values were obtained. RESULTS: Of the 376 workers, 89% (322) were men, the median age was 32 years (range 20-57) and 84% (304) were at high altitude. In multivariate analysis, male sex (p
