An appraisal of respiratory system compliance in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Introduction: Heterogeneous respiratory system static compliance (CRS) values and levels of hypoxemia in patients with novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) requiring mechanical ventilation have been reported in previous small-case series or studies ...

Systematic review: e-cigarettes vs. conventional cigarettes

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport
Introduction Electronic cigarettes have gained widespread popularity by being marketed as a safer alternative to traditional smoking. Possibility of inhaling vapor created by heating nicotine liquid instead of combusting tobacco leaves revolutionized

Candida dubliniensis Sullivan et al., a new species in the human respiratory system

open access: yesActa Mycologica, 2014
Long-term observations of broadly defined mycological features of various human ontocoenoses show that the ontocoenosis of the resoiratory system is characterised by rapid changes of the dynamics and biodiversity of the fungi.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Febrile and gynaecological infections in pregnancy increase the risk of childhood respiratory disorders in the offspring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Emerging evidence suggests that foetal and early life environmental factors are critical for determining the susceptibility to allergic and respiratory diseases.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

RESEARCH ON 3D OBJECT SURFACE SIMULATION TECHNIQUES AND VIRTUAL REALITY APPLICATIONS IN TEACHING

open access: yesTạp chí Khoa học
Virtual reality (VR) technology is now widely applied in various fields such as education, military, and medicine. Particularly in medical education, the application of VR in simulating human body parts enhances visualization, increases interactivity,

Anaesthesia and the respiratory system [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1979
Pulmonary gas exchange is disturbed during general anaesthesia; both oxygenation and elimination of carbon dioxide are impaired. The shape of the chest wall alters after induction of anaesthesia-paralysis in recumbent subjects, and its motion during inspiration is also altered.

AscF in the mycobacterial CIII–CIV supercomplex lacks metal and nucleotide binding but links malate oxidation to respiration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The mycobacterial CIII‐CIV respiratory supercomplex is an obligate assembly, encompassing several subunits of unknown functions. We have characterized the intracellular subunit AscF, and show that it is unlikely to be a sensor for metals or nucleotides, but is required for growth on nonfermentable energy sources, and likely works as an adapter for ...
