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 ...

Impulse oscillometry identifies peripheral airway dysfunction in children with adenosine deaminase deficiency. [PDF]
, 2015 Adenosine deaminase-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID) is characterized by impaired T-, B- and NK-cell function. Affected children, in addition to early onset of infections, manifest non-immunologic symptoms including pulmonary ...

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 ...

AirwayNet: A Voxel-Connectivity Aware Approach for Accurate Airway Segmentation Using Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Airway segmentation on CT scans is critical for pulmonary disease diagnosis and endobronchial navigation. Manual extraction of airway requires strenuous efforts due to the complicated structure and various appearance of airway. For automatic airway extraction, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based methods have recently become the state-of-the-art ...

A clinical method for estimating laryngeal airway resistance during vowel production.
Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1981 A noninvasive clinical method for estimating laryngeal airway resistance during vowel production is described. Resistance is calculated from the ratio of translaryngeal pressure to translaryngeal flow, the first determined from measurement of oral ...

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Schematic diagram of inverse comorbidities of Alzheimer's disease and lung cancer. Abstract Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) and lung cancer are leading causes of mortality among the older population. Epidemiological evidence suggests an antagonistic relationship between them, whereby patients with AD exhibit a reduced risk of developing cancer and ...

The effect of adenoidectomy on transnasal airflow in children with hypertrophy of adenoid tissue
African Journal of Paediatric Surgery, 2018 Background: The aim of this study was to clarify changes of transnasal airflow resulting from adenoidectomy and to assess the effect of surgery depending on adenoid hypertrophy (AH) obstruction grade.
