On the rheology of pulmonary surfactant: effects of concentration and consequences for the surfactant replacement therapy [PDF]
Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces 178, 337-345 (2019), 2019 The role of pulmonary surfactant is to reduce the surface tension in the lungs and to facilitate breathing. Surfactant replacement therapy (SRT) aims at bringing a substitute by instillation into the airways, a technique that has proven to be efficient and lifesaving for preterm infants.

Silver Nanoparticle‐Mediated Antiviral Efficacy against Enveloped Viruses: A Comprehensive Review
Global Challenges, EarlyView.Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit broad‐spectrum antiviral activity by targeting key viral structures and processes. They disrupt viral envelopes, compromising integrity, and bind to nucleocapsids, impairing viral replication. AgNPs also inhibit glycoprotein interactions, preventing viral attachment and entry into host cells.

The impact of Ureaplasma infections on pregnancy complications
Libyan Journal of Medicine, 2020 The aim of this study was to assess if ureaplasmas are associated with pregnancy complications and diseases in newborns. Pregnant women with complaints and threatening signs of preterm delivery were included.

An approach to study recruitment/derecruitment dynamics in a patient-specific computational model of an injured human lung [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We present a new approach for physics-based computational modeling of diseased human lungs. Our main object is the development of a model that takes the novel step of incorporating the dynamics of airway recruitment/de-recruitment into an anatomically accurate, spatially resolved model of respiratory system mechanics, and the relation of these dynamics

Quantification of Alveolar Recruitment for the Optimization of Mechanical Ventilation using Quasi-static Pressure Volume Curve [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Quasi-static, pulmonary pressure-volume (P-V) curves over an inflation-deflation cycle are analyzed using a respiratory system model (RSM), which had been developed for quantitative characterization of the mechanical behavior of the total respiratory system.

1515 RESPIRATORY TIMING IN NEWBORNS WITH RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME (RDS) [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1985 The Hering-Breur inspiratory inhibitory reflex decreases in activity with increasing gestational age (GA) (JAP 36:426). An intercostal-phrenic inhibitory reflex may be present in the premature with RDS who demonstrates paradoxical rib cage motion (JAP 40:352). Either reflex would decrease inspiratory time (Ti) in premature infants of younger (GA).
