        Self-citation in American Physiological Society Journals

        This study investigates the incidence of self-citation (authors citing their own work) for scholarly articles in ten journals published by the American... ...

        The airway smooth muscle layer is structurally abnormal in low birth weight infants: implications for obstructive disease

        Citation: Wang KCW, Elliot JG, Saglani S, et al. The airway smooth muscle layer is structurally abnormal in low birth weight infants: implications ...

        Airway-associated adipose tissue accumulation is increased in a kisspeptin receptor knockout mouse model

        Airway-associated adipose tissue increases with body mass index and is a local source of pro-inflammatory adipokines that may contribute to airway pathology in asthma co-existing with obesity. Genetic susceptibility to airway adiposity was considered in the present study through kisspeptin/kisspeptin receptor signalling, known to modulate systemic adiposity and potentially drive airway remodelling.  ...

        RISING STARS: The heat is on: how does heat exposure cause pregnancy complications?

        The incidence and severity of heatwaves are increasing globally with concomitant health complications. Pregnancy is a critical time in the life course at risk of adverse health outcomes due to heat exposure. Dynamic physiological adaptations, which include altered thermoregulatory pathways, occur in pregnancy. ...

        Chemical analysis of fresh and aged Australian e-cigarette liquids

        To assess the chemical composition of electronic cigarette liquids (e-liquids) sold in Australia, in both their fresh and aged forms. Design, setting: Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis of commercial e-liquids sold in Australia (online and physical stores). ...

        Intrauterine Growth Restriction Promotes Postnatal Airway Hyperresponsiveness Independent of Allergic Disease

        Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is associated with asthma. Murine models of IUGR have altered airway responsiveness in the absence of any inflammatory exposure. Given that a primary feature of asthma is airway inflammation, IUGR-affected individuals may develop more substantial respiratory impairment if subsequently exposed to an allergen. This study used a maternal hypoxia-induced mouse model of IUGR to determine the combined effects of IUGR and allergy on airway responsiveness. ...

        Soy Biodiesel Exhaust is More Toxic than Mineral Diesel Exhaust in Primary Human Airway Epithelial Cells

        Exposure to biodiesel exhaust resulted in significantly greater cell death and a greater release of immune mediators compared to both air controls and ULSD exhaust ...

        Early life arsenic exposure and acute and long-term responses to influenza A infection in mice

        Exposure to arsenic in early life has been shown to increase the rate of respiratory infections during infancy, reduce childhood lung function, and increase... ...

        Factors influencing the assessment of lung function in mice with influenza-induced lung disease

        The constant-phase model (CPM) is commonly fit to respiratory system input impedance (Z rs) to estimate lung mechanics. ...

        Defective aeroallergen surveillance by airway mucosal dendritic cells as a determinant of risk

        A hallmark of atopic asthma is development of chronic airways hyper-responsiveness (AHR) that persists in the face of ongoing exposure to perennial... ...
