We evaluated the rate of fatigue development in the inspiratory muscles of healthy trained individuals during graded bicycle exercise and high resistive resistance to breath under conditions of normoxia and hyperoxia. Fatigue of the respiratory muscles was assessed by tension-time index (TT(m)=P(m)I/P(m)I(maxx)T(I)/T(T)), by the dynamics of changes in the ratio of respiratory volume to inspiratory muscles force, and by ratio of the mean amplitudes of electrical activity in high and low frequency ranges. It was found that the limit of extreme working capacity in humans during heavy resistive load is related to fatigue of the inspiratory muscles developing with the same rate under conditions of normoxia or hyperoxia.

Background: Autophagy and immunity play important regulatory roles in lung developmental disorders. However, there is currently a lack of bioinformatics analysis on autophagy-related genes (ARGs) and immune infiltration in bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We aim to screen and validate the signature genes of BPD by bioinformatics and in vivo experiment.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) increases the mortality of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). There are no curative therapies for this disease. Lung endothelial carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1a (Cpt1a), the rate-limiting enzyme of the carnitine shuttle system, is reduced in a rodent model of BPD.

Article Synopsis
  • The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the link between arterial oxygen levels (Pao2) and 28-day mortality among patients on ECMO support.
  • Thirteen studies involving nearly 17,800 participants were analyzed, revealing that higher Pao2 levels corresponded with increased mortality across various defined thresholds.
  • The findings indicate that elevated Pao2 values in critically ill ECMO patients are associated with a higher risk of death, applicable to both adult and pediatric groups, necessitating cautious interpretation of the results.

Aircraft cabins are routinely pressurized to the equivalent of 8000 ft altitude. Exposure of lab animals to aeromedical evacuation relevant hypobaria after traumatic brain injury worsens neurological outcomes, which is paradoxically exacerbated by hyperoxia. This study tested the hypothesis that exposure of rats to hypobaria following cortical impact reduces cerebral blood flow, increases neuroinflammation, and alters brain neurochemistry.

Central sleep apneas (CSA) can occur de novo at high-altitude in individuals without sleep-disordered breathing at low altitude. These apneas are usually brief, lasting only 5-15 s. This report presents the first documented case of a man experiencing extreme altitude-induced CSA lasting more than 100 s in the absence of any sleep breathing disorder in normoxia.
