Background ventilatory stimulus as a determinant of load compensation

Journal of Applied Physiology

Abstract

Compensation for inspiratory flow-resistive loading was compared during progressive hypercapnia and incremental exercise to determine the effect of changing the background ventilatory stimulus and to assess the influence of the interindividual variability of the unloaded CO2 response on evaluation of load compensation in normal subjects. During progressive hypercapnia, ventilatory response was incompletely defended with loading (mean unloaded delta VE/delta PCO2 = 3.02 +/- 2.29, loaded = 1.60 +/- 0.67 1.min-1.Torr-1 CO2, where VE is minute ventilation and PCO2 is CO2 partial pressure; P less than 0.01). Furthermore the degree of defense of ventilation with loading was inversely correlated with the magnitude of the unloaded CO2 response. During exercise, loading produced no depression in ventilatory response (mean delta VE/delta VCO2 unloaded = 20.5 +/- 1.9, loaded = 19.2 +/- 2.5 l.min-1.l-1.min-1 CO2 where VCO is CO2 production; P = NS), and no relationship was demonstrated between degree of defense of the exercise ventilatory response and the unloaded CO2 response. Differences in load compensation during CO2 rebreathing and exercise suggest the presence of independent ventilatory control mechanisms in these states. The type of...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
