The Saussurea involucrate cultured cell extracts were infused to the rats of Saussurea involucrate cultured cell extracts group with the dose of 500 mg/kg for 14 d while the distilled water was fed to other 2 groups in the period. Except blank control group, the rats of other groups were exposed in simulative 8 000 m altitude experiencing acute hypobaric hypoxia after 14 d infusion. Then the rats of all groups were killed and sampled blood serum and brain tissue.

The pilots were grouped into with DNP and healthy groups by prevalence of DNP, and the FNP prevalence was compared between these two groups. The prevalences of DNP and FNP were compared between high-performance fighter pilots and conventional fighter pilots. Pilots also described how FNP influenced operational flying. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Among all pilots, 32.6% had experienced DNP, 59.7% had experienced FNP and 17.2% had experienced frequent FNP.

Comparing with conventional fighter pilots, high performance fighter pilots had no statistically different DNP and FNP prevalence, but had statistically different frequent FNP prevalence(χ2=7.753, P<0.01). Among the pilots with FNP, 18.7% reported neck pain impacted flying endurance, 20.1% reported impacted ability of concentration or stamina, 37.4% reported impacted ability of observation or target searching, 59.7% reported impacted agile operation or high G maneuvers.
