Measurement of breathing in patients with post-COVID-19 using structured light plethysmography (SLP)
BMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2021 Introduction COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on global health to date, with 5.6 million cases in the UK since its emergence. The respiratory symptoms largely mimic those of pneumonia’ with symptoms ranging from mild to severe.

The effect of obesity on lung function
Expert Review of Respiratory Medicine, 2018 Introduction: There is a major epidemic of obesity, and many obese patients suffer with respiratory symptoms and disease. The overall impact of obesity on lung function is multifactorial, related to mechanical and inflammatory aspects of obesity.

Childhood lung function as a determinant of menopause-dependent lung function decline [PDF]
Maturitas, 2021 The naturally occurring age-dependent decline in lung function accelerates after menopause, likely due to the change of the endocrine balance. Although increasing evidence shows suboptimal lung health in early life can increase adult susceptibility to insults, the potential effect of poor childhood lung function on menopause-dependent lung function ...

β3-Adrenoceptor redistribution impairs NO/cGMP/PDE2 signalling in failing cardiomyocytes
eLife, 2020 Cardiomyocyte β3-adrenoceptors (β3-ARs) coupled to soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)-dependent production of the second messenger 3’,5’-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) have been shown to protect from heart failure.

Air pollution, lung function and COPD: results from the population-based UK Biobank study
European Respiratory Journal, 2019 Ambient air pollution increases the risk of respiratory mortality, but evidence for impacts on lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is less well established.

Nature Genetics, 2018 Reduced lung function predicts mortality and is key to the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In a genome-wide association study in 400,102 individuals of European ancestry, we define 279 lung function signals, 139 of which are ...

Impaired Lung Function, Lung Disease, and Risk of Incident Dementia.
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2019 Rationale: Growing evidence suggests that compromised lung health may be linked to dementia and worsening cognitive ability. Objectives: To test the hypothesis that impaired lung function or lung disease in midlife is associated with greater risk of ...

Concurrent micro- to macro-cardiac electrophysiology in myocyte cultures and human heart slices
Scientific Reports, 2018 The contact cardiac electrogram is derived from the extracellular manifestation of cellular action potentials and cell-to-cell communication. It is used to guide catheter based clinical procedures.
