Ultrasound Imaging for Diaphragm Dysfunction: A Narrative Literature Review.

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2019
Of the various muscles that make up the respiratory system, the diaphragm is the prima donna. In the past, only specialist research centers were able to estimate and challenge the effort of this muscle; this was achieved by measuring transdiaphragmatic ...

Endobronchial valve treatment improves diaphragm function in severe emphysema patients

ERJ Open Research
Background Diaphragm dysfunction is common in severe emphysema patients, primarily due to hyperinflation, placing the diaphragm at a mechanical disadvantage.

MG53 Preserves Neuromuscular Junction Integrity and Alleviates ALS Disease Progression

Antioxidants, 2021
Respiratory failure from progressive respiratory muscle weakness is the most common cause of death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Defects in neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) and progressive NMJ loss occur at early stages, thus stabilizing and ...

Assisted mechanical ventilation promotes recovery of diaphragmatic thickness in critically ill patients: a prospective observational study

Critical Care, 2020
Background Diaphragm atrophy and dysfunction are consequences of mechanical ventilation and are determinants of clinical outcomes. We hypothesize that partial preservation of diaphragm function, such as during assisted modes of ventilation, will restore ...

An Evaluation of the Tribological Characteristics of Diaphragm Plates for High-Pressure Hydrogen Gas Compressor Applications

Lubricants, 2023
Diaphragm plates, a key part of high-pressure hydrogen gas compressors, are easily cracked or broken due to repeated shape deformations caused by pressure, resulting in increasing difficulties in maintenance. This study aimed to improve the durability of
