Noninvasive assessment of inspiratory muscle neuromechanical coupling during inspiratory threshold loading [PDF]

, 2019
Diaphragm neuromechanical coupling (NMC), which reflects the efficiency of conversion of neural activation to transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi), is increasingly recognized to be a useful clinical index of diaphragm function and respiratory mechanics in ...

Predictive significance of the six-minute walk distance for long-term survival in chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure [PDF]

, 2007
Background: The 6-min walk distance ( 6-MWD) is a global marker of functional capacity and prognosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), but less explored in other chronic respiratory diseases.

Non-invasive respiratory support for preterm infants following extubation from mechanical ventilation. A narrative review and guideline suggestion

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2020
The recent introduction of different non-invasive ventilation modes for preterm has decreased the need for intubation, invasive ventilation and sedation. However, specific guidelines for each non-invasive mode are still lacking.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Respiratory Variations in Pulse Pressure Reflect Central Hypovolemia during Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

Critical Care Research and Practice, 2014
Background. Correct volume management is essential in patients with respiratory failure. We investigated the ability of respiratory variations in noninvasive pulse pressure (ΔPP), photoplethysmographic waveform amplitude (ΔPOP), and pleth variability ...
