Sex Differences in the Effects of Etonogestrel on Respiratory Recovery in an In Vivo Rat Model of Central Chemoreflex Impairment

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Rhythmic breathing movements driven by the brainstem rely on chemosensory inputs to homeostatically adjust motor output to the prevailing metabolic demand. The central CO2 chemoreflex is a critical component of this neural circuitry, as defects in these sensors cause hypoventilation syndromes, which are typically difficult to manage ...

Evaluation of Stress Scores of Healthy Adult Cats during Barometric Whole-Body Plethysmography and Its Correlation with Measurement Parameters

Animals
Barometric whole-body plethysmography (BWBP) is considered to be a particularly gentle method of assessing lung function in cats. However, there have been no studies to date investigating the stress experienced by cats during measurements.

Real‐Time MRI With Deep Learning for Efficient Evaluation of Neuromuscular Breathing Impairment

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Breathing impairment is an important and common symptom in neuromuscular disorders. Reliable diagnostics are highly warranted. Real‐time MRI and deep learning‐based lung segmentation were used to analyze respiratory mechanics in patients with Pompe disease, a myopathy with diaphragmatic weakness, compared to healthy controls.

Alms1 KO Rat: A New Model of Cardiometabolic Syndrome With Spontaneous Hypertension

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Alström syndrome 1 (ALMS1) is a protein linked to Alström syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by obesity, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, and hypertension. Genetic studies have further associated Alms1 with hypertension in human populations. However, the precise mechanisms by which ALMS1 regulates metabolic and cardiovascular

Adapting Real-Time Lung Function Measurements for SARS-CoV-2 Infection Studies in Syrian Hamsters

Viruses
Pulmonary function examinations are critical to assess respiratory disease severity in patients. In preclinical rodent models of viral respiratory infections, however, disease is frequently evaluated based on virological, pathological and/or surrogate ...

Trimethylamine N‐oxide is elevated in postmenopausal women relative to age‐matched men and premenopausal women among individuals with obesity

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 798-808, 1 March 2026.
Abstract Trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) is linked to arterial stiffness and atherosclerosis. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk increases following menopause in women. Whether menopause influences plasma TMAO metabolism to mediate CVD risk is unknown.

Respiratory-Induced Hemodynamic Changes Measured by Whole-Body Multichannel Impedance Plethysmography

Physiological Research, 2018
The cardiovascular system is described by parameters including blood flow, blood distribution, blood pressure, heart rate and pulse wave velocity. Dynamic changes and mutual interactions of these parameters are important for understanding the physiological mechanisms in the cardiovascular system.
