In Vitro Estimation of Relative Compliance during High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation
Applied Sciences, 2021 High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), which uses a small tidal volume and a high respiratory rate, is considered a type of protective lung ventilation that can be beneficial for certain patients.

Guanylyl cyclase activation reverses resistive breathing–induced lung injury and inflammation [PDF]
, 2015 Inspiratory resistive breathing (RB), encountered in obstructive lung diseases, induces lung injury. The soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway is down-regulated in chronic and acute animal models of RB, such as ...
