Effects of phrenic nerve cooling on diaphragmatic function

, 1987
The effects of phrenic nerve cooling at 0 degrees C on the nerve and diaphragmatic function were evaluated in dogs. Eleven dogs, anesthetized and mechanically ventilated, were studied.

Safety of Pulsed Field Ablation: Established Evidence, Emerging Risks, and Knowledge Gaps

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Overview of the safety profile of pulsed field ablation (PFA), highlighting established safety advantages, procedure‐related complications, electroporation‐specific effects, and key areas of ongoing uncertainty, particularly for ventricular applications.

Phrenic nerve amplitude but not phrenic nerve burst frequency is sensitive to pentobarbital application during pregnancy.

, 2013
A, Phrenic nerve amplitude in response to pentobarbital in vivo is marginally increased at baseline during pregnancy compared to all other groups, but shows an equivalent rate of decline with increasing doses of pentobarbital.

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Postthoracotomy Ipsilateral Shoulder Pain: A Literature Review on Characteristics and Treatment

Pain Research and Management, 2016
Context. Postthoracotomy Ipsilateral Shoulder Pain (IPS) is a common and sometimes intractable pain syndrome. IPS is different from chest wall pain in type, origin, and treatments.

Phrenic nerve activity is insensitive to pentobarbital application during pregnancy.

, 2013
A, Representative, compressed phrenic neurograms from virgin female, G17 pregnant and 30 d post partum rats. After establishing baseline conditions, 10 mg/kg of pentobarbital was administered every 5 min up to a maximum total dose of 100 mg/kg.

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors modulate exercise‐induced sympathetic activation in healthy humans during moderate‐intensity hypoxic exercise

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This randomized cross‐over trial (N = 12) addressed the hypothesis that selective reduction of pulmonary arterial pressure (i.e. manipulation of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptor activation) during hypoxic exercise would reduce sympathetic outflow (muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA)) in healthy humans.

Early thoracoscopic plication of diaphragm in a newborn with brachial plexus palsy and concurrent phrenic nerve palsy

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2017
Phrenic nerve palsy is a rare cause of respiratory distress in a newborn. When conservative measures fail to achieve adequate ventilation, then early surgical plication has been found to be associated with good outcome.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells into spinal cord lesions restores breathing and climbing [PDF]

, 2003
One of the most devastating effects of damage to the upper spinal cord is the loss of the ability to breathe; patients suffering these injuries can be kept alive only with assisted ventilation. No known method for repairing these injuries exists.
