Early phrenic motor neuron loss and transient respiratory abnormalities following unilateral cervical spinal cord contusion [PDF]
Contusion-type cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most common forms of SCI observed in patients. In particular, injuries targeting the C3-C5 region affect the pool of phrenic motor neurons (PhMNs) that innervates the diaphragm, resulting in ...

Sex differences in exercise-induced diaphragmatic fatigue in endurance-trained athletes [PDF]
There is evidence that female athletes may be more susceptible to exercise-induced arterial hypoxemia and expiratory flow limitation and have greater increases in operational lung volumes during exercise relative to men.

A monitoring device for pressurised-air-driven diaphragm-based artificial heart assist devices [PDF]
A non-invasive device has been developed to monitor the diaphragm position and the blood flow in artificial heart assist devices equipped with a pressurised-air-driven diaphragm.

The influence of tensile forces on the deflection of circular diaphragms in pressure sensors [PDF]
It is known that the deflection of a diaphragm is determined by two mechanisms, bending moments or bending stress and tensile forces or membrane stress.\ud \ud Usually the influence of tensile forces is not taken into account when calculating the ...

Blockage of the Ryanodine Receptor via Azumolene Does Not Prevent Mechanical Ventilation-Induced Diaphragm Atrophy. [PDF]
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for patients in respiratory failure. However, prolonged MV causes the rapid development of diaphragm muscle atrophy, and diaphragmatic weakness may contribute to difficult weaning from MV ...

Optimization Design of Diaphragm Profile based on Kriging Model
The failures of diaphragm couplings in application are mostly originated from fatigue failures of the diaphragm. To improve the fatigue performance of the diaphragm coupling,a optimization design method for the diaphragm profile parameters based on the ...
