Impedance plethysmography and thrombo-embolic disease

open access: yesThe British Journal of Radiology, 1992
Abstract This study compares the results of impedance plethysmography with lower limb venography in 68 patients referred for investigation of clinical deep vein thrombosis, and with the results of ventilation/perfusion isotope scans in 125 patients with suspected pulmonary embolism. Impedance plethysmography had a sensitivity of 100% and

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Design and implementation of a portable impedance cardiography system for noninvasive stroke volume monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2016
Measurement of the stroke volume (SV) and its changes over time can be very helpful for diagnosis of dysfunctions in the blood circulatory system and monitoring their treatments.

Correlation of Air Displacement Plethysmography with Alternative Body Fat Measurement Techniques in Men and Women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
International Journal of Exercise Science 5(4) : 367-378, 2012. Obesity has reached epidemic proportions with serious health consequences. Techniques used to measure body fat (BF) yield variable BF estimates, and this variability may lead to ...

Tidal breathing parameters measured using structured light plethysmography in healthy children and those with asthma before and after bronchodilator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Structured light plethysmography (SLP) is a light‐based, noncontact technique that measures tidal breathing by monitoring displacements of the thoracoabdominal (TA) wall.

Measurement and management of adult blood pressure in the peri‐operative period: updated guidelines from the Association of Anaesthetists and the British and Irish Hypertension Society

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Maintaining stable blood pressure during surgery is a key responsibility of anaesthetists. Peri‐operative omission and reintroduction of antihypertensive drugs, general anaesthesia, neuraxial and regional techniques can all cause significant fluctuations in blood pressure, particularly in patients with hypertension. Since the first

Accuracy of the Omron HBF-500 Body Composition Monitor in Male and Female College Students [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Omron HBF-500 is an inexpensive body composition monitor that incorporates both hand-to-hand and foot-to-foot electrical impedance technology. At this time, studies examining the accuracy of the HBF-500 when estimating percent body fat (%BF) are ...

Physiology of Skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1921
One of Montagna's greatest contributions to study of the biology of the skin has been his demolition of the artificial walls that traditionally separated the histologist from the physiologist.

Practical measurement of body composition using bioelectrical impedance, air displacement plethysmography and ultrasound in stable outpatients with short bowel syndrome receiving home parenteral nutrition: comparison of agreement between the methods

open access: yesJournal of human nutrition and dietetics (Print), 2018
Background People diagnosed with intestinal failure (IF) as a result of short bowel syndrome are dependent on home parenteral nutrition (HPN). Measuring nutritional status is essential for monitoring treatment.

OSA Initiates Histone Lactylation That Drives PDE4B/FUS/AGT Axis to Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study illustrates how chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) leads to hypertension via increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), causing glycolytic dysregulation. Lactate accumulation enhances histone lactylation, upregulating phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B),
