نویسنده

  • Fred S. Wright
چکیده

This monograph compiles innovative data, covering many aspects of lung biology: respiratory mechanics; gas exchange and gas transport; gas diffusion; and control of breathing. It describes physiologic observations, and analyzes and interprets them with the precision that only mathematics and physics can provide. Under the inspirational leadership of Dr. John West, authors from the United States and from Europe have assembled a volume which, undoubtedly, will challenge students of lung biology and stimulate further research.

Usefulness of an Automatic Quantitative Method for Measuring Regional Cerebral Blood Flow Using 99mTc Ethyl Cysteinate Dimer Brain Uptake Ratio

 Objective(s): Improved brain uptake ratio (IBUR), employing 99mTc-ethyl cysteinate dimer (99mTc-ECD), is an automatic non-invasive method for quantitatively measuring regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). This method was developed by the reconstruction of the theory and linear regression equation, based on rCBF measurement by H215O positron emission tomography. Clarification of differences in r...

Clinical research in Japan: past, present and future.

The volume of clinical research carried out in Japan is relatively small by global standards, especially when compared with the country's contributions to basic research. Although the academic quality of the clinical research done here is generally high, its relative paucity has had a number of alarming consequences, e.g., delays in the approval of important new drugs and medical devices caused...

Feasibility of high-dose iodine-131-metaiodobenzylguanidine therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma preceding myeloablative chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a study protocol

Objective(s): High-risk neuroblastoma is a childhood cancer with poorprognosis despite modern multimodality therapy. Internal radiotherapy using131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is effective for treating the disease even if it isresistant to chemotherapy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacyof 131I-MIBG radiotherapy combined with myeloablative high-dose chemotherapyand...

Variabilities of Salivary HHV-6/7, SIgA Levels, and POMS 2 Scores Over Two Weeks Following Long-term Restriction from Practice in Athletes

Background. Persistent physical fatigue (PPhF) is one of the most common issues in athletes; salivary human herpes virus 6 and/or 7 (HHV-6/7) have recently attracted attention as novel microbiological markers for its assessment. Objectives. We aimed to investigate potential variabilities of salivary HHV-6/7 levels in athletes, along with traditional assessments. Methods. We conducted an obser...
