Thus it can be used in concentrations with oxygen that have a lower risk of hypoxia.

The excess of oxygen depleting chemicals leads to hypoxia and the creation of a dead zone.

These centers, in turn, regulate breathing and blood pressure, with hypoxia causing an increase in ventilation.

Immediately following the event, blood flow and therefore oxygen transport is reduced locally, leading to hypoxia of the cells near the location of the original insult.

Developmental factors Factors such as hypoxia and infection, or stress and malnutrition in the mother during fetal development, may result in a slight increase in the risk of schizophrenia later in life.

The catalytic activity of PHF8 depends on molecular oxygen, a fact considered important with respect to reports on increased incidence of cleft lip palate in mice that have been exposed to hypoxia early during pregnancy.
