PREDICTION OF RESPIRATORY MOTION
… during radiation treatment. The prediction of respiratory motion has become an important research area because respiratory motion severely affects precise radiation dose delivery. This study describes recent radiotherapy technologies including tools for measuring target position during …

The Exercising Respiratory System
… Whilst the potential capacity of the respiratory system has been described as being 'over-built' for exercise, a number of respiratory system functions have been linked with exercise limitation, in both trained and untrained individuals. The purpose of this research was to examine the …

Respiratory function: A systems approach
… affecting V˙A, and the medullary pontine respiratory center (MPRC) in the brain stem. The MPRC is responsible for generating the basic rhythm of breathing and corrects for disturbances. Neurons inside the MPRC are organized into a central pattern generator (CPG), the functionality of which …

Respiratory distress in newborn infants
… may be more commonly associated with failure of respiratory adaptation than with any other adaptational failure" (Smith, 1964). About two-thirds of all deaths in the newborn are associated with respiratory failure (Briggs and Nogg, 1958; Drissell and Smith, 1962). Hutchisen et al (1962) stated …

Respiratory health of the endurance athlete : prevalence of respiratory related conditions/illnesses in endurance athletes
… is recent epidemiological evidence that the respiratory tract is the most common system affected by illness in athletes during tournaments. Respiratory tract symptoms have also been shown to affect endurance athletes particularly in the post- event period. However, the prevalence of …

The epidemiology of hypercapnic respiratory failure
Hypercapnic respiratory failure is a condition that is encountered commonly by many clinicians. It can occur in association with a range of respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic and neurological disorders, either alone or in combination. Most of the current literature is limited to case series …

Protein Factors Regulating Mitochondrial Respiratory Supercomplexes
… their fundamental implications to mitochondrial respiratory function. Recent knock-out studies have delineated external ETC proteins HIGD1A and HIGD2A as assembly factors of ETC complexes III and IV, and their incorporation into SCs. In order to clarify the primary functions of HIGD1A and HIGD2A, …

Respiratory complications of organophosphorus pesticide poisoning
… consciousness, excessive airway secretions and respiratory failure. A combination of these clinical features is the most common cause of death. Up to 30% of OP pesticide poisoned patients are admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for tracheal intubation and lung ventilation, but up to half …

Shale gas development and respiratory health
… oil and gas well data and state inpatient respiratory records are combined to estimate the effect of various levels of shale gas development on respiratory admissions. A border exclusion was applied to account for air pollution spillovers. We find that the presence of fracking wells affects …

RESPIRATORY MUSCLE UNLOADING AND ENDURANCE EXERCISE PERFORMANCE
… was hypothesised that if the normal loads on the respiratory muscles contribute to the limitation of endurance exercise, then a reduction of these loads (resistive unloading) should improve exercise performance. Inspiratory (I) and expiratory (E) unloading is possible at rest and moderate exercise …
