Changes in body composition during acute exposure to high altitude is related to acute mountain sickness
Significant changes of body composition were observed in the early stage after ascent to plateau. The decline of FFM, TBW, and ECW might be related to the severity of AMS, and fatigue was positively correlated with the decline of FFM, TBW, ICW and ECW.
