Periventricular white-matter injury is the major form of brain injury associated with
prematurity and the leading cause of cerebral palsy in survivors of premature birth. Progress …

Although periventricular white matter injury (PWMI) is the leading cause of chronic
neurological disability and cerebral palsy in survivors of premature birth, the cellular …

As a part of the development of an efficient dry powder aerosol vaccine for poultry, the
objective of this study was to accurately determine the deposition pattern of nebulized …

Linking the mechanics and energetics of locomotion in vertebrates has been hampered by a
lack of information regarding the energy use of individual skeletal muscles in vivo. Here, we …

ECG-triggered computed tomography (CT) was used during passage of iodinated contrast to
determine regional pulmonary blood flow (PBF) in anesthetized prone/supine dogs. PBF …

Pulmonary artery constriction (PAC), a model of right ventricular (RV) pressure overload,
flattens or inverts the septum and may flatten the left ventricular (LV) free wall. Finite element …

Objective To develop a quantitative measure of regional variation in choroidal blood flow
(ChBF). Methods Five million 15-μm fluorescent microspheres were injected into the left …

The present protocol describes a method for parallel measurement of cerebral blood flow
(CBF) using fluorescent microspheres and structural assessment of the same material. The …

Background. Current practice at high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) initiation is a
stepwise increase of the constant applied airway pressure to achieve lung recruitment. We …

Introduction The objective was to study the effects of a lung recruitment procedure by
stepwise increases of mean airway pressure upon organ blood flow and hemodynamics …
