Status Epilepticus After Electrocution Injury in a Dog
ABSTRACT Objective To describe a case of status epilepticus secondary to electrocution injury associated with an electric fence. Case Summary A 1.5‐year‐old male Kangal Shepherd Dog mix was presented to the emergency service after being entangled in an agricultural electric fence for 1–2 h. On presentation, the dog was recumbent, was unable to stand or

Exercise‐induced dynamic hyperinflation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory lung disease caused by inhalation of noxious particles, most commonly cigarette smoking. The consequent changes in airways, lung parenchyma and pulmonary vasculature lead to increased resistive, elastic and threshold loads and impaired capacity of the respiratory muscle pump. COPD

Abstract Exercise limitation is a cardinal feature of fibrotic interstitial lung disease arising from pulmonary gas exchange, respiratory mechanical and cardio‐circulatory abnormalities. More recently, it has been recognized that impairment in locomotor muscle function (e.g., reduced muscle mass/strength or heightened fatigability) might also play a ...

Influence of low‐dose dopamine on exercise in fibrosing interstitial lung disease
ABSTRACT Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (FILD) is associated with dyspnoea and exercise intolerance. In other cardiorespiratory conditions, heightened carotid body (CB) chemoreflex sensitivity is associated with reduced exercise capacity. We tested the hypothesis that CB chemoreflex inhibition would improve exercise endurance time (EET) and reduce ...

Abstract Restriction of fetal substrate supply has an adverse effect on surfactant maturation in the lung and thus affects the transition from in utero placental oxygenation to pulmonary ventilation ex utero. However, the consequences of reduced fetal substrate supply are dependent on the timing of gestation, severity and duration.
