Application of Interrupter Resistance and Spirometry Techniques in Pediatric Pulmonary Medicine: Feasibility and Concordance in Healthy Children Under 8 Years

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Pediatric pulmonary medicine relies heavily on accurate lung function assessment, yet conventional spirometry presents challenges in children due to cooperation requirements.

Orexin-A Excites Airway Vagal Preganglionic Neurons via Activation of Orexin Receptor Type 1 and Type 2 in Rats

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Airway vagal nerves play a predominant role in the neural control of the airway, and augmented airway vagal activity is known to play important roles in the pathogenesis of some chronic inflammatory airway diseases.

Management of acute bronchitis in healthy adults. [PDF]

, 2004
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are the most common infections in humans, accounting for half of all acute conditions each year in the United States. Acute bronchitis episodes represent a significant portion of these illnesses.

Novel Device for Measuring Lung Function using Oscillometry [PDF]

, 2020
The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a non-invasive means of measuring lung mechanics. Broad-band oscillations in flow are delivered to the lungs while the resultant pressure oscillations are recorded.

Impairment of the baroreflex control of human respiratory resistance with age

European Journal of Medical Research, 2009
Background The mechanism responsible for the central baroreflex resetting with age are an area of limited knowledge. We previously demonstrated that in subjects aged above 50 the airway resistance did not change in response to baroreceptor activation ...

Reflex influence of carotid baroreceptor inactivation on respiratory resistance in humans

European Journal of Medical Research, 2009
Our previous study demonstrated that selective carotid baroreceptors activation decreases airway resistance. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of carotid baroreceptor inactivation on the reflex change of respiratory resistance ...

Barometric whole-body plethysmography investigating breed-specific variations in dogs

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionBarometric whole-body plethysmography (BWBP) is a non-invasive method for pulmonary function testing in dogs. A significant advantage over other techniques is the possibility to perform measurements in awake and unrestrained animals ...
