Apneustic breathing provoked by limbic influences.
We describe a 64-year-old man with cerebrovascular disease who had an acute stroke characterised by pseudobulbar palsy, facial weakness, and pyramidal signs. He developed frequent emotional outbursts followed by periods of apneusis. Between these episodes he breathed with a regular and unvarying rate and tidal volume. Autopsy showed extensive cortical, subcortical and pontine infarction. The re...
متن کاملBuspirone treatment for apneustic breathing in brain stem infarct.
We report a case of brainstem infarction resulting in apneustic breathing, which was alleviated with buspirone. We discuss apneusis, review the literature, and speculate about the benefit of serotonin 1A receptor agonists in the treatment of apneusis and other respiratory disorders.
متن کاملBreathing Position Influences Speech Perception
Participants were asked to breath through their mouth or their nose, forcing them to adopt a particular position of their velum (up or down). While breathing in each of these positions, they categorized sounds from an /ada/ to /ana/ continuum. The position of the speech articulators, even though adopted for the purposes of breathing, altered participants’ perception of external speech sounds, s...
متن کاملDivergent effects of bicuculline and picrotoxin on ketamine-induced apneustic breathing.
This study tested the potential role of inhibitory neurotransmission in the mechanism of apneustic respiration evoked by ketamine, an NMDA receptors antagonist. In the experiments performed in anesthetized, paralyzed, and ventilated cats, ketamine, in a dose of 0.5 mg/kg, was administered before and after GABA(A) receptor blockade with picrotoxin or bicuculline; all agents were given intravenou...
متن کاملNocturnal onset ischemic stroke provoked by sleep-disordered breathing advanced with congestive heart failure.
R ecently, sleep-disordered breathing and nocturnal hypoxia have been recognized to increase the risk of cerebrovascular disease. Kirkham et al reported that nocturnal hypoxemia was a predictor of future cerebrovascular events in sickle-cell disease. However, it remains unclear whether nocturnal hypoxemic episodes directly lead to nocturnal onset stroke, because other predisposing conditions mi...
