Three Alveolar Phenotypes Govern Lung Function in Murine Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Mechanical ventilation is an essential lifesaving therapy in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that may cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) through a positive feedback between altered alveolar mechanics, edema, surfactant inactivation ...

Computed tomography findings, temporal course, and clinical relevance of subpleural pulmonary interstitial emphysema in patients with pneumomediastinum

open access: yesActa Radiologica Open, 2021
Background Subpleural pulmonary interstitial emphysema is defined as the air in the subpleural portion of the lung, and the clinical relevance is not well understood.

Alveolar lipids in pulmonary disease. A review

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2020
Lung lipid metabolism participates both in infant and adult pulmonary disease. The lung is composed by multiple cell types with specialized functions and coordinately acting to meet specific physiologic requirements. The alveoli are the niche of the most

Homeostasis as the Mechanism of Evolution. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Homeostasis is conventionally thought of merely as a synchronic (same time) servo-mechanism that maintains the status quo for organismal physiology. However, when seen from the perspective of developmental physiology, homeostasis is a robust, dynamic ...

A mammalian Wnt5a-Ror2-Vangl2 axis controls the cytoskeleton and confers cellular properties required for alveologenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Alveolar formation increases the surface area for gas-exchange and is key to the physiological function of the lung. Alveolar epithelial cells, myofibroblasts and endothelial cells undergo coordinated morphogenesis to generate epithelial folds (secondary

Role Of Inhaled Nitric Oxides In Pregnancy With Eisenmenger Syndrome

open access: yesQanun Medika: Jurnal Kedokteran Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Muhammadiyah Surabaya, 2020
Eisenmenger Syndrome (ES) is congenital heart disease with pulmonary hypertension and shunting turning from right to left. The resistance of pulmonary vascular more than 7.5 mmHg/L/min. The right ventricle and pulmonary artery always enlarge.

Review of hypoxaemia in the anaesthetized horse: predisposing factors, consequences and management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: To discuss how hypoxaemia might be harmful and why the horse is particularly predisposed to developing it. To review the strategies that are used to manage hypoxaemia in anaesthetised horses, to describe how successful these strategies are

Management of Mechanical Ventilation in Decompensated Heart Failure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for respiratory failure, including decompensated congestive heart failure. MV can reduce ventricular preload and afterload, decrease extra-vascular lung water, and decrease the work of breathing ...
