Lung and Diaphragm-Protective Ventilation.
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020 Mechanical ventilation can cause acute diaphragm atrophy and injury and this is associated with poor clinical outcomes. While the importance and impact of lung-protective ventilation is widely appreciated and well-established, the concept of diaphragm ...

New insight into podocyte slit diaphragm, a therapeutic target of proteinuria
Clinical and Experimental Nephrology, 2020 Dysfunction of slit diaphragm, a cell–cell junction of glomerular podocytes, is involved in the development of proteinuria in several glomerular diseases. Slit diaphragm should be a target of a novel therapy for proteinuria.

Diaphragm versus diaphragm with spermicides for contraception
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2003 The diaphragm is usually used with a spermicide. However, some practitioners have suggested that spermicides offer no additional contraceptive protection and have advocated alternative guidelines for the use of diaphragms.The objective of this review was to compare the effectiveness, safety and acceptability of the diaphragm with and without spermicide.
