Simulation of Respiratory Mechanics

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1966
The dynamic relationship between respiratory muscle effort and the consequent changes in lung volume is investigated. A mathematical simulation based on the structures that form the connection between these two variables makes it possible to lump the contribution from all respiratory muscles into a single time-varying driving force.

A sigmoidal fit for pressure-volume curves of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients on mechanical ventilation: clinical implications

open access: yesClinics, 2011

Inspiration for the Future: The Role of Inspiratory Muscle Training in Cystic Fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited, multi-system, life-limiting disease characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, which accounts for the majority of CF-related morbidity and mortality.

CAR T‐Cell Therapy in Neurology: A Scoping Review of Neuro‐Oncology, Autoimmune Diseases & Neurotoxicity

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapy has been investigated in neurological diseases, encompassing both central nervous system malignancies and autoimmune disorders, thereby extending its application beyond hematological cancers.

Intracranial pressure responsiveness to positive end-expiratory pressure in different respiratory mechanics: a preliminary experimental study in pigs

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2018
Background Respiratory mechanics affects the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on intracranial pressure (ICP). Respiratory mechanics of the lung and the chest wall was not differentiated in previous studies.

Respiratory physiology of COVID-19-induced respiratory failure compared to ARDS of other etiologies

open access: yesCritical Care, 2020
Background Whether respiratory physiology of COVID-19-induced respiratory failure is different from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) of other etiologies is unclear.

Optimization techniques in respiratory control system models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One of the most complex physiological systems whose modeling is still an open study is the respiratory control system where different models have been proposed based on the criterion of minimizing the work of breathing (WOB).

Respiratory Mechanics in Mechanically Ventilated Patients [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Care, 2014
Respiratory mechanics refers to the expression of lung function through measures of pressure and flow. From these measurements, a variety of derived indices can be determined, such as volume, compliance, resistance, and work of breathing. Plateau pressure is a measure of end-inspiratory distending pressure.
