Platelet kinetics in the pulmonary microcirculation in vivo assessed by intravital microscopy [PDF]
, 2002 Growing evidence supports the substantial pathophysiological impact of platelets on the development of acute lung injury. Methods for studying these cellular mechanisms in vivo are not present yet.

High-speed three-dimensional imaging of the pulmonary alveoli [PDF]
Head & Neck Oncology, 2010 Investigating the structure and function of pulmonary alveoli in vivo is crucial for understanding the normal and diseased lung. In particular, understanding the three-dimensional geometry and relationship of the terminal alveoli to their neighboring alveoli, alveolar ducts and acini during respiration would be a major advance.

Pulmonary alveolar type I cell population consists of two distinct subtypes that differ in cell fate. [PDF]
, 2018 Pulmonary alveolar type I (AT1) cells cover more than 95% of alveolar surface and are essential for the air-blood barrier function of lungs. AT1 cells have been shown to retain developmental plasticity during alveolar regeneration.

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

Gaseous Diffusion from Alveoli to Pulmonary Vessels of Considerable Size [PDF]
Circulation Research, 1963 Thirty patients have been presented in whom the appearance of inhaled hydrogen gas at an electrode in the wedge position of a pulmonary artery was seen to occur within two seconds. In 13 of these patients the appearance of hydrogen occurred with equal or nearly equal rapidity in a pulmonary artery at least 3 mm in diameter.

Phylogenetic analysis of the Camaenidae (Mollusca: Stylommatophora) with special emphasis on the american taxa [PDF]
, 2003 The monophyly of the land snail family Camaenidae has been in doubt due to a disjunct bihemispheric distributional pattern and to the lack of morphological synapomorphies.

Effect of scoliosis on growth of alveoli and pulmonary arteries and on right ventricle [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1971 During childhood the lung not only grows in size but alveoli and arteries multiply and the pattern of muscularity of the arteries changes. A quantitative study is here reported on 4 cases of scoliosis. The limitation and distortion of space available affect lung growth.
