The morphological changes of the aeroheamatic barrier of the respiratory portion of lungs at chronic hepatic insufficiency. [PDF]
The purpose of the work was to determine the consequence of pathomorphological changes of the respiratory part and surfactant system of lungs at hepatic insufficiency, and also to estimate the dynamics of changes of both compensate and decompensate types

Photonic Radar for Contactless Vital Sign Detection [PDF]
Vital sign detection is used across ubiquitous scenarios in medical and health settings. Contact and wearable sensors have been widely deployed. However, they are unsuitable for patients with burn wounds or infants with insufficient attaching areas.

Comprehensive clinical evaluation of novel 4DCT‐based lung function imaging methods
Abstract Purpose Methods have been developed that apply image processing to 4DCTs to generate 4DCT‐ventilation/perfusion lung imaging. Traditional methods for 4DCT‐ventilation rely on Hounsfield‐Unit (HU) density‐change methods and suffer from poor numerical robustness while not providing 4DCT‐perfusion data.

Clinical and Radiographic Features of Pycnodysostosis with Emphasis on Dentofacial Problems
Pycnodysostosis (PDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by cathepsin K deficiency which plays an important role in bone metabolism. Among clinical features of this disease which are mainly caused by altered bone remodeling are craniofacial ...

Pathophysiology of Respiratory Insufficiency
This chapter will discuss the pathophysiology of the two types of respiratory failure type 1 and type 2, also known as hypoxic type and hypercapnic type respectively, which will help in understanding how respiratory diseases emerge. The next few pages will go through anatomy, physiology, and mechanisms of developing hypoxia and hypercapnia.

Predicting Mortality Risk in Viral and Unspecified Pneumonia to Assist Clinicians with COVID-19 ECMO Planning [PDF]
Respiratory complications due to coronavirus disease COVID-19 have claimed tens of thousands of lives in 2020. Many cases of COVID-19 escalate from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) to viral pneumonia to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to death.

Respiratory rhythm entrains membrane potential and spiking of non-olfactory neurons [PDF]
In recent years, several studies have tended to show a respiratory drive in numerous brain areas so that the respiratory rhythm could be considered as a master clock promoting communication between distant brain areas. However, outside of the olfactory system it is not known if respiration-related oscillation (RRo) could exist in the membrane potential
