To what extent do physiological tolerances determine elevational range limits of mammals?
Abstract figure legend Hypothetical relationship between elevational range limits and capacity for aerobic thermogenesis (thermogenic maximal oxygen uptake) in hypoxia. In this hypothetical comparison between highland and lowland sister species, which is consistent with empirical data for small mammals, the species with the higher elevational range ...

Unsaturation in the air spaces of leaves and its implications
Abstract Modern plant physiological theory stipulates that the resistance to water movement from plants to the atmosphere is overwhelmingly dominated by stomata. This conception necessitates a corollary assumption—that the air spaces in leaves must be nearly saturated with water vapour; that is, with a relative humidity that does not decline materially

Surgical management of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome: An update on options and outcomes
Abstract Dogs with a brachycephalic conformation often experience a collection of abnormalities related to their craniofacial conformation, which can lead to a variety of clinical signs such as stertor, exercise intolerance, respiratory distress, and gastrointestinal signs such as regurgitation, among others.

Small airways’ function in Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome
Introduction and objectives Most of the studies of the pathophysiology of Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) focus on the collapsibility and obstruction of the upper airways.

Pediatric pulmonology year in review 2023: Physiology
Abstract Application of the principles of pulmonary physiology and lung development to the care and management of respiratory disease in children is a distinguishing feature of pediatric pulmonology. In 2023, this was evident in numerous publications in Pediatric Pulmonology and other journals. This review will highlight some of the papers in this area.

Severe bronchospasm and acute respiratory failure associated with inhaled prostacyclin therapy
Abstract Prostacyclin therapy is a mainstay of the management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Inhaled prostacyclins present safe and effective options for the management of PAH that limit systemic side effects. We describe the first reported case of life‐threatening bronchospasm and acute respiratory failure associated with inhaled ...

Heliox no tratamento do mal asmático: relato de casos
RESUMO O hélio foi descoberto em 1868 pelo astrônomo francês Pierre-Jules-César Janssen e teve seu uso terapêutico pela primeira vez na obstrução das vias aéreas, feito por Barach, quase 70 anos depois, em 1934.

The use of heliox in critical care
This paper reviews the medical use of helium oxygen mixture in obstructive airway disease in patients with croup, narrow endotracheal tubes (ETTs), respiratory distress syndrome, asthma, bronchiolitis, as well as patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and acute lung injury.
