The validity of surface EMG of extra-diaphragmatic muscles in assessing respiratory responses during mechanical ventilation: A systematic review

open access: yesPulmonology, 2020
Purpose Evidence supporting the utilization of surface EMG (sEMG) of extra-diaphragmatic muscles for monitoring of mechanical ventilation (MV) assistance is unclear.

The effects of inspiratory muscle training on plasma interleukin-6 concentration during cycling exercise and a volitional mimic of the exercise hyperpnea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is unknown whether the respiratory muscles contribute to exercise-induced increases in plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentration, if this is related to diaphragm fatigue, and whether inspiratory muscle training (IMT) attenuates the plasma IL-6 ...

Modulation of Respiratory System by Limb Muscle Afferents in Intact and Injured Spinal Cord

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Breathing constantly adapts to environmental, metabolic or behavioral changes by responding to different sensory information, including afferent feedback from muscles.

Fatigue of the respiratory muscles

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine, 1996
The word "fatigue" has several meanings: in daily life, it is often used to express tiredness or weakness, whereas a technical definition may also include impaired intellectual or motor performance, increased EMG activity for a given performance, shift of the EMG power spectrum to lower frequencies, and/or the inability of muscle to generate force.

Respiratory muscle plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2005
Plasticity of respiratory muscles must be considered in the context of their unique physiological demands. The continuous rhythmic activation of respiratory muscles makes them among the most active in the body. Respiratory muscles, especially the diaphragm, are non-weight-bearing, and thus, in contrast to limb muscles, are not exposed to gravitational ...

Bedrest alters respiratory muscle strength in patients immobilized due to fractured femurs

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2000
Bedrest produces decrements in the functioning of all physiological systems. Physiotherapists treat patients who are managed with Thomas splints following fractured femurs. The patients are generally compartmentally treated as orthopaedic patients.
