Increased resistance in the upper airway is known to be a contributing factor to deviant facial growth patterns. These patterns are the result of a prolonged presence of unbalanced oropharyngeal muscle activity. We hypothesized that mechanically increasing airway resistance would enhance the activity of the muscles facilitating respiration, and we attempted to demonstrate that the increased mus...
Arterial baroreceptors are known to influence airway smooth muscle tone. Thus, increasing carotid sinus pressure from 20 to 200 mm Hg causes reflex tracheal dilation. However, the effects of changing sinus pressure around a normal arterial pressure set-point of 100 mm Hg have not been examined. In anesthetized, artificially ventilated dogs, we distended the vascularly isolated carotid sinuses w...
asthma is a clinical syndrome characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway responsiveness, and expiratory airflow limitation. nocturnal symptoms and decreases in lung function are common aspects of the asthma clinical syndrome. nocturnal symptoms also appear to be associated with asthma-related mortality. in addition to its importance to the regulation of human circadian rhythms, an ...
The object of this study was to investigate how changes in the contractile state of smooth muscle would modify oscillatory mechanics of tracheal muscle and lung parenchyma during agonist challenge. Guinea pig tracheal and parenchymal lung strips were suspended in an organ bath. Measurements of length (L) and tension (T) were recorded during sinusoidal oscillations under baseline conditions and ...
Previously, we showed the shortening velocity of guinea pig tracheal strips was the greatest in juvenile (3-wk-old) compared with infant (1-wk-old) and adult animals (3-mo-old). The greatest shortening velocity was associated with the least resistance to shortening calculated from force-velocity curves among the three age groups. It remained to be verified if the stiffness of tracheal tissue, a...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Recurrent pneumonia due to intractable aspiration is a life-threatening disease. A tracheal flap method for children without previous tracheostomy has been previously reported. This study reports that improvements of this method and its three subtypes are widely applicable to patients with various conditions. STUDY DESIGN Surgical technique study. METHODS The tracheal ...
The effect of vesnarinone (OPC-8212), an orally active positive inotropic agent was studied in tracheal muscle isolated from guinea pigs, and the mechanism of its action was analyzed. Vesnarinone (10(-6)-10(-4) M) caused a concentration-dependent relaxation of tracheal muscle pre-contracted by 10(-4) M histamine. The potency of the relaxing effect of vesnarinone was greater than that of theophy...
due to an adenocarcinoma of the right upper lobe with infiltration of the main bronchus a 49-years-old female patient underwent an upper bilobectomy with sleeve resection. after two completed chemotherapy bouts and signs of sepsis another thoracotomy was inevitable. as a complicating factor a supracarinal, necrotic and perforating lesion of the trachea appeared. the defect can be initially rep...
Exposure to ozone (O3) induces airway hyperresponsiveness mediated partly through the release of substance P (SP) from nerve terminals in the airway wall. Although substantial evidence suggests that SP is released by sensory nerves, SP is also present in neurons of airway ganglia. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of intrinsic airway neurons in O3-enhanced airway responsiven...
