Effect of Respiration on the Characteristic Ratios of Oscillometric Pulse Amplitude Envelope in Blood Pressure Measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Systolic and diastolic blood pressures (BPs) are important physiological parameters for disease diagnosis. Systolic and diastolic characteristic ratios derived from oscillometric pulse waveform have been widely used to estimate automated non-invasive BPs

Simulating human exposure to indoor airborne microplastics using a Breathing Thermal Manikin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Humans are potentially exposed to microplastics through food, drink, and air. The first two pathways have received quite some scientific attention, while little is known about the latter. We address the exposure of humans to indoor airborne microplastics

MicroRNA-200b regulates distal airway development by maintaining epithelial integrity

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
miR-200b plays a role in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer. We recently reported abnormal expression of miR-200b in the context of human pulmonary hypoplasia in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).

Systemic inflammation suppresses spinal respiratory motor plasticity via mechanisms that require serine/threonine protein phosphatase activity

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
Background Inflammation undermines multiple forms of neuroplasticity. Although inflammation and its influence on plasticity in multiple neural systems has been extensively studied, its effects on plasticity of neural networks controlling vital life ...

Comparison of two devices and two breathing patterns for exhaled breath condensate sampling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Analysis of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a noninvasive method to access the epithelial lining fluid of the lungs. Due to standardization problems the method has not entered clinical practice. The aim of the study was to assess the comparability for

Vision analysis in detecting abnormal breathing activity in application to diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recognizing abnormal breathing activity from body movement is a challenging task in machine vision. In this paper, we present a non-intrusive automatic video monitoring technique for detecting abnormal breathing activities and assisting in diagnosis of ...
