Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020 Congenital or acquired disorders of the pediatric airway can affect the upper, lower, or entire airway. There are fundamental differences between the anatomy and physiology of the neonate, pediatric, and adult airways. Infants are not merely small adults

Tissue-specific expression of high-voltage-activated dihydropyridine-sensitive L-type calcium channels [PDF]
, 1991 The cloning of the cDNA for the α1 subunit of L-type calcium channels revealed that at least two genes (CaCh1 and CaCh2) exist which give rise to several splice variants.

Surgical anatomy of the trachea.
Annals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018 Anatomy as the foundation of surgery is a concept no better exemplified than by the history of tracheal surgery. Incremental advancements in our understanding of the trachea's position, structure, blood supply and adjacent organs each allowed for ...

Discovery of a lipid synthesising organ in the auditory system of an insect [PDF]
, 2012 Weta possess typical Ensifera ears. Each ear comprises three functional parts: two equally sized tympanal membranes, an underlying system of modified tracheal chambers, and the auditory sensory organ, the crista acustica.

Nature Communications, 2018 Tube morphogenesis is essential for internal-organ development, yet the mechanisms regulating tube shape remain unknown. Here, we show that different mechanisms regulate the length and diameter of the murine trachea.

Effects of varying inhalation duration and respiratory rate on human airway flow [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Studies of flow through the human airway have shown that inhalation time (IT) and secondary flow structures can play important roles in particle deposition. However, the effects of varying IT in conjunction with respiratory rate (RR) on airway flow remain unknown.

Anatomical bases of sex- and size-related acoustic variation in herring gull alarm calls [PDF]
, 2014 The hypothesis that anatomical or physiological factors can constrain the production of vocalizations is supported by an increasing number of examples from a range of taxa, where acoustic variation is related to sex, body-size or condition. In this study,

Tissue-engineered trachea from a 3D-printed scaffold enhances whole-segment tracheal repair
Scientific Reports, 2017 Long segmental repair of trachea stenosis is an intractable condition in the clinic. The reconstruction of an artificial substitute by tissue engineering is a promising approach to solve this unmet clinical need.

Numerical modeling of photon migration in human neck based on the radiative transport equation [PDF]
Journal of Applied Nonlinear Dynamics, 5 (2016) 117-125, 2016 Biomedical optical imaging has a possibility of a comprehensive diagnosis of thyroid cancer in conjunction with ultrasound imaging. For improvement of the optical imaging, this study develops a higher order scheme for solving the time-dependent radiative transport equation (RTE) by use of the finite-difference and discrete-ordinate methods.
