Objectives: Mechanical ventilation is associated with primary diaphragmatic dysfunction, also termed ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction. Studies evaluating diaphragmatic function recovery after extubation are lacking. We evaluated early and late recoveries from ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction in a mouse model.

Design: Experimental randomized study.

Setting: Research laboratory.

Subjects: C57/BL6 mice.

Interventions: Six groups of C57/BL6 mice. Mice were ventilated for 6 hours and then euthanatized immediately (n = 18), or 1 (n = 18) or 10 days after extubation with (n = 5) and without S107 (n = 16) treatment. Mice euthanatized immediately after 6 hours of anesthesia (n = 15) or after 6 hours of anesthesia and 10 days of recovery (n = 5) served as controls.

Measurements And Main Results: For each group, diaphragm force production, posttranslational modification of ryanodine receptor, oxidative stress, proteolysis, and cross-sectional areas were evaluated. After 6 hours of mechanical ventilation, diaphragm force production was decreased by 25-30%, restored to the control levels 1 day after extubation, and secondarily decreased by 20% 10 days after extubation compared with controls. Ryanodine receptor was protein kinase A-hyperphosphorylated, S-nitrosylated, oxidized, and depleted of its stabilizing subunit calstabin-1 6 hours after the onset of the mechanical ventilation, 1 and 10 days after extubation. Post extubation treatment with S107, a Rycal drug that stabilizes the ryanodine complex, did reverse the loss of diaphragmatic force associated with mechanical ventilation. Total protein oxidation was restored to the control levels 1 day after extubation. Markers of proteolysis including calpain 1 and calpain 2 remained activated 10 days after extubation without significant changes in cross-sectional areas.

Conclusions: We report that mechanical ventilation is associated with a late diaphragmatic dysfunction related to a structural alteration of the ryanodine complex that is reversed with the S107 treatment.

The purpose of this study was to determine any changes in the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles, which are core muscles, in children and adolescents with nocturnal enuresis (NE) using the shear wave elastography (SWE). In this case-control study, the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles of 40 children and adolescents with NE and 40 healthy controls were evaluated. The rectus abdominis muscle was examined at the right supra- and subumbilical levels, and the diaphragm at the right 9th-10th intercostal space.

Extubation failure rates are notably high in patients in neurointensive care. Ineffective cough is the variable independently associated with extubation failure, but its quantification remains challenging. Patients with primary central nervous system injury requiring invasive mechanical ventilation were included.

Disruption of developmental processes affecting the fetal lung leads to pulmonary hypoplasia. Pulmonary hypoplasia results from several conditions including congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and oligohydramnios. Both entities have high morbidity and mortality, and no effective therapy that fully restores normal lung development.

Background: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common and debilitating condition among people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and is more prevalent among women. Over the past decade, numerous studies have investigated the effects of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) as a treatment for UI in people with MS. MS negatively impacts pulmonary function even in the early stages of the disease and people with MS may experience respiratory muscle weakness.

Obesity is a complex and non-communicable disease with a pandemic entity. Currently, multiple causes can lead to obesity, and it is not always easy to create a direct relationship between physical inactivity, poor quality of nutrients consumed, and calculation of excess calories. Among the associated comorbidities, obesity creates a dysfunctional environment of respiratory rhythms at the central and peripheral levels, with functional, morphological, and phenotypic alteration of the diaphragm muscle.
