Mediastinal emphysema after long‐distance flight with ketoacidosis and underlying diabetes mellitus type 1

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2019
A 21‐year old female with diabetes mellitus type 1 presented to our hospital's emergency department having suffered from shortness of breath, mild chest pain, and vomiting following her arrival after a long‐distance flight two days earlier.

Iloprost improves running performance at 5,000 m in Han but not in Tibetans

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Sport Science, 2019
Background: Tibetans experience lose less aerobic exercise capacity in hypoxia compared to lowland Han. We tested if inhalation of iloprost (to counter hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction) and furosemide (to decrease afferent vagal traffic from pulmonary ...

AMP-activated protein kinase inhibits Kv1.5 channel currents of pulmonary arterial myocytes in response to hypoxia and inhibition of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
KEY POINTS: Progression of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension is thought to be due, in part, to suppression of voltage‐gated potassium channels (K(v)) in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle by hypoxia, although the precise molecular mechanisms have been unclear.

Influence of the 15-HETE on cytosolic [ Ca2+] i of the rabbit pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2008
Extracellular Ca2+ influx was blocked by L-type Ca2+ channel blocker nifedipine to observe the effects of 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid on the constriction of rabbit pulmonary artery rings and on the changes of Ca2+ level in the rabbit pulmonary artery

Brain natriuretic peptide and NT-proBNP levels reflect pulmonary artery systolic pressure in trekkers at high altitude. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Our objective was to evaluate the utility of the natriuretic peptides BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) and NT-proBNP as markers of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) in trekkers ascending to high altitude (HA). 20 participants had BNP and NT-proBNP

Serotonin signaling through the 5-HT1B receptor and NADPH oxidase 1 in pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Serotonin can induce human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (hPASMC) proliferation through reactive oxygen species (ROS), influencing the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We hypothesise that in PASMCs, serotonin induces

High altitude-induced pulmonary oedema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Almost one mountain trekker or climber out of two develops several symptoms of high altitude illness after a rapid ascent (>300m/day) to an altitude above 4000m.
