Parapharyngeal Fat Pads as an Obesity‐Related Parameter for Apnea‐Hypopnea Index Severity

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the association between obstructive sleep apnea severity and the parapharyngeal fat pad volume is examined in a population‐based sample. We included 680 participants who underwent standardised overnight polysomnography between 2008 and 2012 as part of the Study of Health in Pomerania in a sleep laboratory in Greifswald, Germany.

The Murine Cl-/HCO3- Exchanger Ae3 (Slc4a3) is Not Required for Acid-Base Balance but is Involved in Magnesium Handling by the Kidney

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2014
Background: The Slc4 family of bicarbonate transporters consists of several members, many of which are highly expressed in the kidney and play an important role in acid-base homeostasis. Among them are Ae1 (Slc4a1) and Ae2 (Slc4a2).

Thoracoabdominal Asynchrony in Healthy Children

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measuring asynchrony between the thorax and abdomen during sleep provides information about inspiratory effort and upper airway obstruction in children, aiding in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study aimed to define a normative range for thoracoabdominal asynchrony (TAA) in healthy children by studying polysomnographies ...

Simple low dose radiography allows precise lung volume assessment in mice

Scientific Reports, 2021
X-ray based lung function (XLF) as a planar method uses dramatically less X-ray dose than computed tomography (CT) but so far lacked the ability to relate its parameters to pulmonary air volume.

Differences in Sleep Spindle Characteristics Between Children With Narcolepsy and Those With Other Causes of Subjective Sleepiness

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central disorders of hypersomnolence are characterised by excessive daytime sleepiness. There has been growing interest in analysing sleep micro‐architecture, to further understand how sleep is affected by these conditions. We investigated if sleep spindle activity differed between children with narcolepsy, idiopathic hypersomnolence (IH) and ...

First case reported of bronchoconstriction in feline aelurostrongylosis by using barometric whole-body plethysmography [PDF]

, 2015
Symptomatic cats infected by Aelurostrongylus abstrusus show non-specific and respiratory clinical signs, often misdiagnosed as other diseases more prevalent among feline population, such as allergic respiratory disease or heartworm associated ...

Increases in skin perfusion and blood oxygen in the non‐exercising human limbs during exercise in the heat: Implications for control of circulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow in the inactive limb tissues and skin is widely thought to decline during incremental exercise to exhaustion due to augmented sympathoadrenal vasoconstrictor activity, but direct evidence to support this view is lacking. Here, we investigated the inactive‐forearm haemodynamic (Q̇forearm${\dot{Q}}_{\mathrm{forearm}}$) and oxygenation
