oronasal region, as an important organ of taste and smell, being respected for its impact on the resonace, which is crucial for any normal speech production. different congenital, acquired and/or developmentalpdefect, may not only have impacts on the quality of respiration, phonation, resonance, also on the process of a normal speech. this article will enable readers to have more focus in such ...

UNLABELLED Sleep is a dynamic physiological process, its primary function being the restoration of the central nervous system. Because sleep disorders affect a significant part of the population the dynamic long term monitoring of human respiration plays a very important role in diagnosis and treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS We describe a remote monitoring system designed for in-hospital or at...

Molecular oxygen and non-heme iron proteins (NHIPs) are that have an atom bound to one or more atoms, found in bacteria, archaea, some eukaryotes. NHIPs involved a variety of biological processes, such as respiration, electron transfer, catalysis. They can be categorized into two classes: cytochrome proteins, which oxygenases, catalyze the oxidation substrates by utilizing molecular oxygen. cri...

results the mean age in breathing technique with lavender and breathing technique alone were 25.5 ± 4.3 and 26 ± 4.9, respectively .two groups were comparable in this regards (p = 0.6), but the length of active phase in interventional group was 7.85 ± 3.85 hours and in the control group it was 9.88 ± 6.65 hours. the decrease of the length of labor in the active phase was higher in the experimen...

BACKGROUND Mitochondrial diseases belong to the most severe inherited metabolic disorders affecting pediatric population. Despite detailed knowledge of mtDNA mutations and progress in identification of affected nuclear genes, diagnostics of a substantial part of mitochondrial diseases relies on clinical symptoms and biochemical data from muscle biopsies and cultured fibroblasts. METHODS To in...

Physiotherapy ought to be offered to patients with a range of medical metabolism conditions with the aim of dyspnoea management and symptom management, quality and performance improvement or maintenance, and airway clearance and cough sweetening or support. respiratory exercises is employed as strategy in respiratory organ enlargement medical care, cartilaginous tube hygiene medical care and pt...

Identification of genes causing variation in daytime and nighttime respiration rates could advance our understanding of the basic molecular processes of human respiratory rhythmogenesis. This could also serve an important clinical purpose, because dysfunction of such processes has been identified as critically important in sleep disorders. We performed a sib-pair-based linkage analysis on ambul...

Methylene blue (MB), a tricyclic phenothiazine drug, has been reported to enhance mitochondrial functions including mitochondrial respiration. By comparison, stress associated with abrupt ethanol withdrawal (EW) impedes mitochondrial functions. We investigated whether MB protects mitochondrial respiration and cell survival from EW stress through a key mitochondrial enzyme, cytochrome c oxidase ...

Patients affected by mitochondrial OXPHOS disorders are still faced with a grim lack of therapeutic options. In this Closeup, Carlos Moraes revisits the recent data by Giovanni Manfredi on PKA's functions in the mitochondria and now its modulation can improve respiration and ATP production in COX-defective cells.

Salicylic acid (SA) inhibited germination of cocklebur (Xanthium pennsylvanicum Wlr), lower seeds, which are completely after-ripened and nondormant. SA also inhibited ethylene production during a pre-germination period of the seeds. Exogenous ethylene overcame the inhibtion of the seed germination by SA. Moreover, SA reduced respiration in pre-germinating whole seeds as well as excised axial...
