Flow Index: a novel, non-invasive, continuous, quantitative method to evaluate patient inspiratory effort during pressure support ventilation

open access: yesCritical Care, 2021
Background The evaluation of patient effort is pivotal during pressure support ventilation, but a non-invasive, continuous, quantitative method to assess patient inspiratory effort is still lacking.

A process-based model of conifer forest structure and function with special emphasis on leaf lifespan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We describe the University of Sheffield Conifer Model (USCM), a process-based approach for simulating conifer forest carbon, nitrogen, and water fluxes by up-scaling widely applicable relationships between leaf lifespan and function. The USCM is designed

Evaluation of Respiratory Dynamics in an Asymmetric Lung Compliance Model [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017
Background Unilateral lung hyperinflation develops in lungs with asymmetric compliance, which can lead to vital instability. The aim of this study was to investigate the respiratory dynamics and the effect of airway diameter on the distribution of tidal ...

Predictive significance of the six-minute walk distance for long-term survival in chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: The 6-min walk distance ( 6-MWD) is a global marker of functional capacity and prognosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), but less explored in other chronic respiratory diseases.
