Peripheral neuropathy in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: Is the phrenic nerve more affected compared with other peripheral nerves?

open access: yesAl-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2017
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multicomponent disease with extrapulmonary manifestation. Peripheral nerve affection may be one of the results or mechanism of COPD. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate peripheral

Diaphragm: Pathophysiology and Ultrasound Imaging in Neuromuscular Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Neuromuscular Diseases, 2017
Respiratory muscles are classically involved in neuromuscular disorders, leading to a restrictive respiratory pattern. The diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle involved during inspiration. Ultrasound imaging is a noninvasive, radiation-free, accurate

From Operando Investigations to Implementation of Ni‐MOF‐74 Oxygen Evolution Electrocatalysts

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work shows how understanding the transformations of Ni‐MOF‐74 during oxygen evolution reaction via operando characterizations leads to the development of a novel, amorphous Ni metal organic compound (Ni‐MOC*), which achieves high current densities both in a three‐electrode cell and in an anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEM‐WE) with a ...

Diaphragm plasticity in aging and disease: therapies for muscle weakness go from strength to strength.

open access: yesJournal of applied physiology, 2018
The diaphragm is the main inspiratory muscle and is required to be highly active throughout the life span. The diaphragm muscle must be able to produce and sustain various behaviors that range from ventilatory to nonventilatory such as those required for

The effect of hypodynamia on the structure of the intraorganic blood vessels and the capacity of the blood stream in the diaphragm of white rats [PDF]

open access: yes
The effect of hypodynamia on the vascular system of white rats with diaphragm deprivation was investigated. Morphological changes in the intraorganic blood stream of the diaphragm were determined. The capacity of the intraorganic vascular flow within the

Modelling of silicon condenser microphones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Several models concerning the sensitivity of capacitive pressure sensors have been presented in the past. Modelling of condenser microphones, which can be considered to be a special type of capacitive pressure sensor, usually requires a more complicated ...

Novel Fe‐Modulating Raney‐Ni Electrodes toward High‐Efficient and Durable AEM Water Electrolyzer

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Plasma spray (APS) is used to fabricate Fe‐modulated Raney‐Ni bifunctional electrodes for AEMWE. The resulting NFA‐CA exhibits distinct core–shell NiFe‐NiFe hydroxides, enabling 2 A cm⁻2 at 1.79 V—surpassing the U.S. Department of Energy's target for AWE systems—and demonstrates excellent durability with 1000 hours of stable operation at 1 A cm⁻2 ...

Patterns of diaphragm function in critically ill patients receiving prolonged mechanical ventilation: a prospective longitudinal study

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2016
BackgroundIn intensive care unit (ICU) patients, diaphragmatic dysfunction (DD) can occur on admission or during the subsequent stay. The respective incidence of these two phenomena has not been previously studied in humans.
