Effect of pressure and timing of contraction on human rib cage muscle fatigue

The American Review of Respiratory Disease
L ZocchiA Grassino

Abstract

Breathing against inspiratory loads can be accomplished with different degrees of coupling between the diaphragm and the other muscles attached to the rib cage (RCM). Thus, the electromyographic signs of fatigue develop separately in each muscle group. While breathing with diaphragm emphasis, the occurrence of diaphragmatic fatigue was found to be related to the tension-time index TTdi (= Pdi/Pdimax x Ti/Ttot). Above the critical range of 0.15 to 0.18, the endurance of the diaphragm is less than 1 h and it is inversely related to the TTdi value. However, in most loaded breathing conditions, the spontaneous pattern of breathing is characterized by predominant activation of RCM. The tension-time conditions at which fatigue develops during breathing with RCM emphasis are not known. We assessed the critical tension-time value in four normal subjects breathing with RCM emphasis against inspiratory threshold loads. RCM predominance was achieved by developing negative abdominal pressure swings during inspiration, and it was characterized by the tension-time index TTrc (Ppl/Pplmax x Tl/Ttot), where Ppl is pleural pressure developed under this condition. Above a critical TTrc value of 0.30, endurance time was inversely related to TTrc, ...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.
