Early phrenic motor neuron loss and transient respiratory abnormalities following unilateral cervical spinal cord contusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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]

open access: yes, 1992
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]

open access: yes, 1984
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 ...

A case of stapled resection of redundant diaphragm and early evisceration of gastrointestinal content

open access: yesVideosurgery and Other Miniinvasive Techniques, 2018
Diaphragm paralysis has been observed following cervical spinal cord and diaphragm injuries. Patients with diaphragm paralysis require plication of the diaphragm if significant pulmonary dysfunction occurs.

Assessment of excursion and thickness of diaphragm by ultrasound during acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and correlation with severity of airway obstruction

open access: yesJournal of Association of Pulmonologist of Tamil Nadu, 2023
Background: Diaphragm dysfunction in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) leads to increased morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis of diaphragm dysfunction and aggressive management to improve the diaphragm function and

Blockage of the Ryanodine Receptor via Azumolene Does Not Prevent Mechanical Ventilation-Induced Diaphragm Atrophy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
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

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2022
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 ...

Diaphragm recovery by laryngeal innervation after bilateral phrenicotomy or complete C2 spinal section in rats

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2006
This study aimed to highlight the functional aspects of diaphragm reinnervation by laryngeal motoneurons after bilateral phrenicotomy or complete cervical transection. The left recurrent laryngeal nerve was connected to the left phrenic nerve in 14 rats.

Diaphragm function in patients with Covid-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) is frequently associated with deep sedation and neuromuscular blockades, that may lead to diaphragm dysfunction.
