Koalas use a novel vocal organ to produce unusually low-pitched mating calls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
SummaryDuring the breeding season, male koalas produce ‘bellow’ vocalisations that are characterised by a continuous series of inhalation and exhalation sections, and an extremely low fundamental frequency (the main acoustic correlate of perceived pitch)

Comparison of asthma phenotypes in OVA-induced mice challenged via inhaled and intranasal routes

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2019
Background The respiratory system is exposed to various allergens via inhaled and intranasal routes. Murine models of allergic lung disease have been developed to clarify the mechanisms underlying inflammatory responses and evaluate the efficacy of novel

Comparative evaluation of the mutagenicity and genotoxicity of smoke condensate derived from Korean cigarettes [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health and Toxicology, 2015
Objectives Cigarette smoking is associated with carcinogenesis owing to the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of cigarette smoke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of Korean cigarettes using in vitro assays.

Modeling-based determination of physiological parameters of systemic VOCs by breath gas analysis: a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Breath Res. 9, 036002 (2015), 2014
In this paper we develop a simple two compartment model which extends the Farhi equation to the case when the inhaled concentration of a volatile organic compound (VOC) is not zero. The model connects the exhaled breath concentration of systemic VOCs with physiological parameters such as endogenous production rates and metabolic rates.

Lung injury associated with inhalation of effective microorganism blends [PDF]

open access: yesAcute and Critical Care, 2020
Since 2009, effective microorganisms (EMs) have been supplied by the local government to the citizens of Seongnam, Korea, for various environment-protective uses including manufacturing detergents, cosmetics and humidifier disinfectants.

Modeling-based determination of physiological parameters of systemic VOCs by breath gas analysis, part 2 [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Breath Res. 12, 036011 (2018), 2017
In a recent paper we presented a simple two compartment model which describes the influence of inhaled concentrations on exhaled breath concentrations for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with small Henry constants. In this paper we extend this investigation concerning the influence of inhaled concentrations on exhaled breath concentrations for VOCs ...

KMRC011, an agonist of toll-like receptor 5, mitigates irradiation-induced tissue damage and mortality in cynomolgus monkeys

open access: yesJournal of Immunotoxicology, 2020
In the study here, the potential applicability of KMRC011 - an agonist of toll-like receptor-5 – as a countermeasure for radiation toxicities was evaluated.

AI-enabled Sound Pattern Recognition on Asthma Medication Adherence: Evaluation with the RDA Benchmark Suite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Asthma is a common, usually long-term respiratory disease with negative impact on global society and economy. Treatment involves using medical devices (inhalers) that distribute medication to the airways and its efficiency depends on the precision of the inhalation technique.

Inhalative Anästhetika [PDF]

open access: yesDer Anaesthesist, 2013
Als inhalative Anasthetika werden Narkotika bezeichnet, die im gasformigen Zustand uber die Lungen inhaliert und anschliesend im Blut gelost an ihren Wirkort transportiert werden. Diese Form der Anasthesie wurde bereits 1847, als Athernarkose, erfolgreich demonstriert.
