Background: An infant should be able to coordinate sucking, swallowing, and breathing to have a safe and effective feeding, which is developed with the increasing gestational age. Any problem in each of these functions can lead to the risk of aspiration, pneumonia, decreased oxygenation saturation, apnea, and bradycardia. The changed body positions may cause changes in the physiological efficie...

Submaximal and maximal physiological parameters were measured on a progressive treadmill test in 11 Columbia University tracksen trained for various events. All runners were also tested in the 22C, 440, 880, one-mile, and two -rile running events. Oxygen uptake was significantly related only to time in the one-mile run. Heart rates (HRs) at each submaximal load on the treadmill were significant...

Establishing non-human primate models of human diseases is an efficient way to narrow the large gap between basic studies and translational medicine. Multifold advantages such as simplicity of breeding, low cost of feeding and facility of operating make the tree shrew an ideal non-human primate model proxy. Additional features like vulnerability to stress and spontaneous diabetic characteristic...

Nowadays the patient monitoring systems are more and more widely used due to the advances in the technical background. These systems can improve the quality of life and by using them, several complications can be avoided in emergency situations. Nevertheless, the proper evaluation of the measured factors is a highly problematic task. The medicine uses a number of parameters, which are difficult...

In this paper, the design and development of a microchip wireless physiological parameter monitoring device has been developed and reported in this paper. This system is able to use for monitor physiological parameters such as body position, heart rate, and human body temperature. This system is built up of electronic device which is worn on wrist and leg by a patient. Measuring vital signs wit...

Pharmacokinetic (PK) software packages are widely used by scientists in different disciplines to estimate PK parameters. However, their use without a clear understanding of physiological parameters affecting the PK parameters and how different PK parameters are related to each other may result in erroneous interpretation of data. Often, mathematical relationships used for the estimation of PK p...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Early prediction of CVD is urgently important for timely prevention and treatment. Incorporation or modification of new risk factors that have an additional independent prognostic value of existing prediction models is widely used for improving the performance of the prediction models. This paper is to investigate the physiol...

The most widely used pharmacological therapies for obesity and weight management are based on inhibition of gastrointestinal lipases, resulting in a reduced energy yield of ingested foods by reducing dietary lipid absorption. Colipase-dependent pancreatic lipase is believed to be the major gastrointestinal enzyme involved in catalysis of lipid ester bonds. There is scant literature on the actio...
