Physical and geometric constraints explain the labyrinth-like shape of the nasal cavity [PDF]
, 2017 The nasal cavity is a vital component of the respiratory system that heats and humidifies inhaled air in all vertebrates. Despite this common function, the shapes of nasal cavities vary widely across animals. To understand this variability, we here connect nasal geometry to its function by theoretically studying the airflow and the associated scalar ...

Measuring Cognitive Load of Software Developers Based on Nasal Skin Temperature [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 It has recently become increasingly important to measure the cognitive load of developers. This is because continuing with a development under a high cognitive load may cause human errors. Therefore, to automatically measure the cognitive load, existing studies have used biometric measures such as brain waves and the heart rate. However, developers are

Empirical Analysis of Oral and Nasal Vowels of Konkani [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Konkani is a highly nasalised language which makes it unique among Indo-Aryan languages. This work investigates the acoustic-phonetic properties of Konkani oral and nasal vowels. For this study, speech samples from six speakers (3 male and 3 female) were collected.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 2, Page 526-539, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Deletion of 17p13.3 has varying degrees of severity on brain development based on precise location and size of the deletion. The most severe phenotype is Miller–Dieker syndrome (MDS) which is characterized by lissencephaly, dysmorphic facial features, growth failure, developmental disability, and often early death.

Expiratory variability index (EVI) is associated with asthma risk, wheeze and lung function in infants with recurrent respiratory symptoms [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Recurrent respiratory symptoms are common in infants but the paucity of lung function tests suitable for routine use in infants is a widely acknowledged clinical problem. In this study we evaluated tidal breathing variability (expiratory variability index, EVI) measured at home during sleep using impedance pneumography (IP) as a marker of lower airway ...

Elasticity of Diametrically Compressed Microfabricated Woodpile Lattices
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Modulus–porosity relationship is derived for woodpile lattices with struts under diametrical compression. The formula presented here that Young's modulus is proportional to the square of the volume fraction E˜ρ2$E \sim \left(\rho\right)^{2}$ is shown to be consistent with computations and laboratory experiments on 3D‐printed samples.

Nasal Airflow Measured by Rhinomanometry Correlates with FeNO in Children with Asthma. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Rhinitis and asthma share similar immunopathological features. Rhinomanometry is an important test used to assess nasal function and spirometry is an important tool used in asthmatic children.
