Microglia regulate motor neuron plasticity via reciprocal fractalkine and adenosine signaling

open access: yesNature Communications
We report an important role for microglia in regulating neuroplasticity within phrenic motor neurons. Brief episodes of low oxygen (acute intermittent hypoxia; AIH) elicit a form of respiratory motor plasticity known as phrenic long-term facilitation ...

Evaluation of droplet dispersion during non-invasive ventilation, oxygen therapy, nebuliser treatment and chest physiotherapy in clinical practice: implications for management of pandemic influenza and other airborne infections

open access: yesHealth Technology Assessment, 2010
Background: Influenza viruses are thought to be spread by droplets, but the role of aerosol dissemination is unclear and has not been assessed by previous studies.

Catenin signaling controls phrenic motor neuron development and function during a narrow temporal window

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023
Phrenic Motor Column (PMC) neurons are a specialized subset of motor neurons (MNs) that provide the only motor innervation to the diaphragm muscle and are therefore essential for survival.

Quantum Breathing Mode of Interacting Particles in a One-dimensional Harmonic Trap

open access: yes, 2012
Extending our previous work, we explore the breathing mode---the [uniform] radial expansion and contraction of a spatially confined system. We study the breathing mode across the transition from the ideal quantum to the classical regime and confirm that ...

Integrated breathing and relaxation training (the Papworth method) for adults with asthma in primary care: a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: An integrated breathing and relaxation technique known as the Papworth method has been implemented by physiotherapists since the 1960s for patients with asthma and dysfunctional breathing, but no controlled trials have been reported.

Intermolecular Interactions as Driving Force of Increasing Multiphoton Absorption in a Perylene Diimide‐Based Coordination Polymer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study uncovers the unexplored role of intermolecular interactions in multiphoton absorption in coordination polymers. By analyzing [Zn2tpda(DMA)2(DMF)0.3], it shows how the electronic coupling of the chromophores and confinement in the MOF enhance two‐and three‐photon absorption.

Portable breathing system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
A semiclosed-loop rebreathing system is discussed for use in a hostile environment. A packed bed regenerative heat exchanger providing two distinct temperature humidity zones of breathing gas with one zone providing cool, relatively dry air and the ...

Tunable quantum spin liquidity in the 1/6th-filled breathing kagome lattice

open access: yes, 2018
We present measurements on a series of materials, Li$_2$In$_{1-x}$Sc$_x$Mo$_3$O$_8$, that can be described as a 1/6th-filled breathing kagome lattice.

Breathing Rate Estimation From the Electrocardiogram and Photoplethysmogram: A Review

open access: yesIEEE Reviews in Biomedical Engineering, 2017
Breathing rate (BR) is a key physiological parameter used in a range of clinical settings. Despite its diagnostic and prognostic value, it is still widely measured by counting breaths manually.
