Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary physiology encompasses intricate breathing patterns (BPs), characterized by breathing frequency (Bf), volumes, and flows. The complexities intensify in the presence of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially during exercise. This study seeks to identify pivotal factors driving changes among these variables and establish cutoff values, comparing their efficacy in differentiating BPs to traditional methods, specifically a breathing reserve (BR) of 30% and a Bf of 50 bpm. METHODS Screening 267 subjects revealed 23 with ILD, 126 with COPD, 33 healthy individuals, and the exclusion of 85 subjects. Lung function tests and ramp-pattern cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) were conducted, identifying crucial BP elements. Changes were compared between groups at peak exercise. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) analysis determined cutoff values. RESULTS Inspiratory time (TI) remained constant at peak exercise for all subjects (two-group comparisons, all p=NS). Given known differences in expiratory time (TE) and tidal volume (VT) among ILD, COPD, and healthy states, constant TI could infer patterns for Bf, total breathing cycle time (TTOT=60/Bf), I:E ratio, inspiratory duty cycle (IDC, TI/TTOT), rapid shallow breathing index (Bf/VT), tidal inspiratory and expiratory flows (VT/TI and VT/TE), and minute ventilation (V̇E=Bf×VT) across conditions. These inferences aligned with measurements, with potential type II errors causing inconsistencies. RSBI of 23 bpm/L and VT/TI of 104 L/min may differentiate ILD from control, while V̇E of 54 L/min, BR of 30%, and VT/TE of 108 may differentiate COPD from control. BR of 21%, TE of 0.99 s, and IDC of .45 may differentiate ILD from COPD. The algorithm outperformed traditional methods (AUC 0.84-0.91 versus 0.59-0.90). CONCLUSION The quasi-fixed TI, in conjunction with TE and VT, proves effective in inferring time-related variables of BPs. The findings have the potential to significantly enhance medical education in interpreting cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Moreover, the study introduces a novel algorithm for distinguishing BPs among individuals with ILD, COPD, and those who are healthy.

Abstract
We have provided indirect pharmacological evidence that hypoxia may trigger release of the S-nitrosothiol, S-nitroso-L-cysteine (L-CSNO), from primary carotid body glomus cells (PGCs) of rats that then activates chemosensory afferents of the carotid sinus nerve to elicit the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR). The objective of this study was to provide direct evidence, using our capacitive S-nitrosothiol sensor, that L-CSNO is stored and released from PGCs extracted from male Sprague Dawley rat carotid bodies, and thus further pharmacological evidence for the role of S-nitrosothiols in mediating the HVR. Key findings of this study were that 1) lysates of PGCs contained an S-nitrosothiol with physico-chemical properties similar to L-CSNO rather than S-nitroso-L-glutathione (L-GSNO), 2) exposure of PGCs to a hypoxic challenge caused a significant increase in S-nitrosothiol concentrations in the perfusate to levels approaching 100 fM via mechanisms that required extracellular Ca2+, 3) the dose-dependent increases in minute ventilation elicited by arterial injections of L-CSNO and L-GSNO were likely due to activation of small diameter unmyelinated C-fiber carotid body chemoafferents, 4) L-CSNO, but not L-GSNO, responses were markedly reduced in rats receiving continuous infusion (10 μmol/kg/min, IV) of both S-methyl-L-cysteine (L-SMC) and S-ethyl-L-cysteine (L-SEC), 5) ventilatory responses to hypoxic gas challenge (10% O2, 90% N2) were also due to the activation of small diameter unmyelinated C-fiber carotid body chemoafferents, and 6) the HVR was markedly diminished in rats receiving L-SMC plus L-SEC. This data provides evidence that rat PGCs synthesize an S-nitrosothiol with similar properties to L-CSNO that is released in an extracellular Ca2+-dependent manner by hypoxia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The VO2 max test is the gold standard measure for aerobic fitness. A standardised treadmill protocol was developed years ago for individuals with Down syndrome but with variations in terms of starting speed, load increases and time spent at each stage. However, we realised that the most widely used protocol for adults with Down syndrome, trouble participants with high treadmill speeds. Consequently, the purpose of the current study was to determine whether an adapted protocol provided improved maximal test performance. METHOD Twelve adults (33 ± 6 years) randomly performed two variations of the standardised treadmill test. RESULTS The protocol that added another incremental incline stage increase yielded a significant improvement in absolute and relative VO2 peak, time to exhaustion, minute ventilation and heart rate max. CONCLUSION A treadmill protocol with the addition of an incremental incline stage allowed for a significant improvement in maximal test performance.

Abstract
Competitive indoor climbing has increased in popularity at the youth, collegiate, and Olympic levels. A critical aspect for improving performance is characterizing the physiologic response to different climbing strategies (e.g., work/rest patterns, pacing) and techniques (e.g., body position and movement) relative to location on climbing wall with spatially varying characteristics (e.g., wall inclinations, position of foot/hand holds). However, this response is not well understood due to the limited capabilities of climbing-specific measurement and assessment tools. In this study, we developed a novel method to examine time-resolved sensor-based measurements of multiple personal biometrics at different microlocations (finely spaced positions; MLs) along a climbing route. For the ML-specific biometric system (MLBS), we integrated continuous data from wearable biometric sensors and smartphone-based video during climbing, with a customized visualization and analysis system to determine three physiologic parameters (heart rate, breathing rate, ventilation rate) and one body movement parameter (hip acceleration), which are automatically time-matched to the corresponding video frame to determine ML-specific biometrics. Key features include: (1) biometric sensors that are seamlessly embedded in the fabric of an athletic compression shirt, and do not interfere with climbing performance, (2) climbing video, and (3) an interactive graphical user interface to rapidly visualize and analyze the time-matched biometrics and climbing video, determine timing sequence between the biometrics at key events, and calculate summary statistics. To demonstrate the capabilities of MLBS, we examined the relationship between changes in ML-specific climbing characteristics and changes in the physiologic parameters. Our study demonstrates the ability of MLBS to determine multiple time-resolved biometrics at different MLs, in support of developing and assessing different climbing strategies and training methods to help improve performance.

Abstract
Endogenous and exogenously administered S-nitrosothiols modulate the activities of central and peripheral systems that control breathing. We have unpublished data showing that the deleterious effects of morphine on arterial blood-gas chemistry (i.e., pH, pCO2, pO2, and sO2) and Alveolar-arterial gradient (i.e., index of gas exchange) were markedly diminished in anesthetized Sprague Dawley rats that received a continuous intravenous infusion of the endogenous S-nitrosothiol, S-nitroso-L-cysteine. The present study extends these findings by showing that unanesthetized adult male Sprague Dawley rats receiving an intravenous infusion of S-nitroso-L-cysteine (100 or 200 nmol/kg/min) markedly diminished the ability of intravenous injections of the potent synthetic opioid, fentanyl (10, 25, and 50 μg/kg), to depress the frequency of breathing, tidal volume, and minute ventilation. Our study also found that the ability of intravenously injected fentanyl (10, 25, and 50 μg/kg) to disturb eupneic breathing, which was measured as a marked increase of the non-eupneic breathing index, was substantially reduced in unanesthetized rats receiving intravenous infusions of S-nitroso-L-cysteine (100 or 200 nmol/kg/min). In contrast, the deleterious effects of fentanyl (10, 25, and 50 μg/kg) on frequency of breathing, tidal volume, minute ventilation and non-eupneic breathing index were fully expressed in rats receiving continuous infusions (200 nmol/kg/min) of the parent amino acid, L-cysteine, or the D-isomer, namely, S-nitroso-D-cysteine. In addition, the antinociceptive actions of the above doses of fentanyl as monitored by the tail-flick latency assay, were enhanced by S-nitroso-L-cysteine, but not L-cysteine or S-nitroso-D-cysteine. Taken together, these findings add to existing knowledge that S-nitroso-L-cysteine stereoselectively modulates the detrimental effects of opioids on breathing, and opens the door for mechanistic studies designed to establish whether the pharmacological actions of S-nitroso-L-cysteine involve signaling processes that include 1) the activation of plasma membrane ion channels and receptors, 2) selective intracellular entry of S-nitroso-L-cysteine, and/or 3) S-nitrosylation events. Whether alterations in the bioavailability and bioactivity of endogenous S-nitroso-L-cysteine is a key factor in determining the potency/efficacy of fentanyl on breathing is an intriguing question.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Increased understanding of the role of cortical structures in respiratory control may help the understanding of seizure-induced respiratory dysfunction that leads to sudden death in epilepsy (SUDEP). The aim of this study was to characterize respiratory responses to electrical stimulation (ES), including inhibition and enhancement of respiration. METHODS We prospectively recruited 19 consecutive patients with intractable epilepsy undergoing stereotactic EEG evaluation from June 2015 to June 2018. Inclusion criteria were patients ≥18 years and in whom ES was indicated for clinical mapping of ictal onset or eloquent cortex as part of the presurgical evaluation. ES was carried out at 50 Hz, 0.2 ms and 1-10 mA current intensity. Common brain regions sampled across all patients were- amygdala (AMY), hippocampus (HG), anterior cingulate gyrus (CING), orbitofrontal cortex (OrbF), temporal neocortex (TNC), temporal pole (TP) and entorhinal cortex (ERC). 755 stimulations were conducted. Quantitative analysis of breathing signal i.e., changes in breathing rate (BR), depth (TV), and minute ventilation (MV) was carried out during ES using the BreathMetrics breathing waveform analysis toolbox. Electrocardiogram, arterial oxygen saturation, end-tidal and transcutaneous carbon dioxide, nasal airflow, and abdominal and thoracic plethysmography were continuously monitored during stimulations. RESULTS Electrical stimulation of TP and CING (at lower current strengths <3mA) increased TV and MV. At 7-10mA, CING decreased TV and MV. On the other hand, decreased TV and MV occurred with stimulation of mesial temporal structures such as AMY and HG. Breathing changes were dependent on stimulation intensity. Lateral temporal, entorhinal, and orbitofrontal cortices did not affect breathing either way. SIGNIFICANCE These findings suggest that breathing responses other than apnea can be induced by ES. Identification of two regions, the temporal pole and anterior cingulate gyrus, for enhancement of breathing may be important in paving the way to future development of strategies for prevention of SUDEP.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate whether anticipatory cardiorespiratory responses vary depending on the intensity of the subsequent exercise bout, and whether anticipatory cardiorespiratory adjustments contribute importantly to enhancing exercise performance during high-intensity exercise. Eleven healthy men were provided advance notice of the exercise intensity and a countdown to generate anticipation during 10 min prior to exercise at 0, 50, 80 or 95% maximal work-rate (Experiment 1). A different group of subjects (n = 15) performed a time to exhaustion trial with or without anticipatory countdown (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, heart rate (HR), oxygen uptake (VO2 ) and minute ventilation (VE ) during pre-exercise resting period increased over time and depended on the subsequent exercise intensity. Specifically, there was already a 7.4% increase in HR from more than 5 min prior to the start of exercise at 95% maximal work-rate, followed by progressively augmented increases of 12.5% between 2 and 3 min before exercise, 24.4% between 0 and 1 min before exercise. In Experiment 2, the initial HR for the first 10 s of exercise in the task with anticipation was 11.4% larger compared to without anticipation (p < 0.01), and the difference in HR between the two conditions decreased in a time-dependent manner. In contrast, the initial increases in VO2 and VE were significantly lower in the task with anticipation than that without anticipation. The time to exhaustion during high-intensity exercise was 14.6% longer under anticipation condition compared to no anticipation (135 ± 26 s vs. 119 ± 26 s, p = 0.003). In addition, the enhanced exercise performance correlated positively with increased HR response just before and immediately after exercise onset (p < 0.01). These results showed that anticipatory cardiorespiratory adjustments (feedforward control) via the higher brain that operate before starting exercise may play an important role in minimizing the time delay of circulatory response and enhancing performance after onset of high-intensity exercise in man.

Abstract
In healthy subjects, at low minute ventilation (V̇E) during physical exercise, the water content and the temperature of the airways are well regulated. However, with the increase in V̇E, the bronchial mucosa becomes dehydrated and epithelial damage occurs. Our goal was to demonstrate the correspondence between the ventilatory threshold inducing epithelial damage, measured experimentally, and the dehydration threshold, estimated numerically. In 16 healthy adults, we assessed epithelial damage before and following a 30-min continuous cycling exercise at 70% of maximal work rate, by measuring the variation pre- to post-exercise of serum club cell protein (cc16/cr). Blood samples were collected at rest, just at the end of the standardized 10-min warm-up, and immediately, 30 min and 60 min post-exercise. V̇E was measured continuously during exercise. Airway water and heat losses were estimated using a computational model adapted to the experimental conditions and were compared to a literature-based threshold of dehydration. Eleven participants exceeded the threshold for bronchial dehydration during exercise (group A) and 5 did not (group B). Compared to post warm-up, the increase in cc16/cr post-exercise was significant (mean increase ± SEM: 0.48 ± 0.08 ng.l-1, i.e. 101 ± 32%, p < 0.001) only in group A but not in group B (mean difference ± SEM: 0.10 ± 0.04 ng.l-1, i.e. 13 ± 7 %, p = 0.79). Our findings suggest that the use of a computational model may be helpful to estimate an individual dehydration threshold of the airways that is associated with epithelial damage during physical exercise.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES There is minimal guidance around how to optimize inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP) levels during use of adaptive servo ventilation (ASV) in clinical practice. This real-world data analysis investigated the effects of IPAP and minimum pressure support (PSmin) settings on respiratory parameters and adherence in ASV-treated patients. METHODS A US-based telemonitoring database was queried for patients starting ASV between 1 August 2014 and 30 November 2019. Patients meeting the following criteria were included: US-based patients aged ≥18 years; AirCurve 10 device (ResMed); and ≥1 session with usage of ≥1 hour in the first 90 days. Key outcomes were mask leak and residual apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) at different IPAP settings, adherence and therapy termination rates, and respiratory parameters at different PSmin settings. RESULTS 63,996 patients were included. Higher IPAP was associated with increased residual AHI and mask leak but did not impact device usage per session (average >6 h/day at all IPAP settings; 6.7 h/day at 95th percentile IPAP 25 cmH2O). There were no clinically relevant differences in respiratory rate, minute ventilation, leak and residual AHI across all possible PSmin settings. Patients with a higher 95th percentile IPAP or with PSmin of 3 cmH2O were most likely to remain on ASV therapy at 1 year. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed robust levels of longer-term adherence to ASV therapy in a large group of real-world patients. There were no clinically important differences in respiratory parameters across a range of pressure and pressure settings. Future work should focus on the different phenotypes of patients using ASV therapy.

Abstract
Continuous monitoring of breathing rate (BR), minute ventilation (VE), and other respiratory parameters could transform care for and empower patients with chronic cardio-pulmonary conditions, such as asthma. However, the clinical standard for measuring respiration, namely Spirometry, is hardly suitable for continuous use. Wearables can track many physiological signals, like ECG and motion, yet respiration tracking faces many challenges. In this work, we infer respiratory parameters from wearable ECG and wrist motion signals. We propose a modular and generalizable classification-regression pipeline to utilize available context information, such as physical activity, in learning context-conditioned inference models. Novel morphological and power domain features from the wearable ECG are extracted to use with these models. Exploratory feature selection methods are incorporated in this pipeline to discover application-driven interpretable biomarkers. Using data from 15 subjects, we evaluate two implementations of the proposed inference pipeline: for BR and VE. Each implementation compares generalized linear model, random forest, support vector machine, Gaussian process regression, and neighborhood component analysis as regression models. Permutation, regularization, and relevance determination methods are used to rank the ECG features to identify robust ECG biomarkers across models and activities. This work demonstrates the potential of wearable sensors not only in continuous monitoring, but also in designing biomarker-driven preventive measures.

Abstract
Hemodialysis is associated with numerous symptoms and side effects that, in part, may be due to subclinical hypoxia. However, acute cardiopulmonary and metabolic physiology during hemodialysis is not well defined. Intradialytic and interdialytic exercise appear to be beneficial and may alleviate these side effects. To better understand these potential benefits, the acute physiological response to exercise should be evaluated. The aim of this study was to compare and characterize the acute physiological response during hemodialysis, intradialytic exercise, and interdialytic exercise. Cardiopulmonary physiology was evaluated during three conditions: 1) hemodialysis without exercise (HD), 2) intradialytic exercise (IDEx), and 3) interdialytic exercise (Ex). Exercise consisted of 30-min constant load cycle ergometry at 90% V̇O2AT (anaerobic threshold). Central hemodynamics (via noninvasive bioreactance) and ventilatory gas exchange were recorded during each experimental condition. Twenty participants (59 ± 12 yr, 16/20 male) completed the protocol. Cardiac output (Δ = -0.7 L/min), O2 uptake (Δ = -1.4 mL/kg/min), and arterial-venous O2 difference (Δ = -2.0 mL/O2/100 mL) decreased significantly during HD. Respiratory exchange ratio exceeded 1.0 throughout HD and IDEx. Minute ventilation was lower (P = 0.001) during IDEx (16.5 ± 1.1 L/min) compared with Ex (19.8 ± 1.0 L/min). Arterial-venous O2 difference was partially restored further to IDEx (4.6 ± 1.9 mL/O2/100 mL) compared with HD (3.5 ± 1.2 mL/O2/100 mL). Hemodialysis altered cardiopulmonary and metabolic physiology, suggestive of hypoxia. This dysregulated physiology contributed to a greater physiological demand during intradialytic exercise compared with interdialytic exercise. Despite this, intradialytic exercise partly normalized cardiopulmonary physiology during treatment, which may translate to a reduction in the symptoms and side effects of hemodialysis.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study is the first, to our knowledge, to directly compare cardiopulmonary and metabolic physiology during hemodialysis, intradialytic exercise, and interdialytic exercise. Hemodialysis was associated with increased respiratory exchange ratio, blunted minute ventilation, and impaired O2 uptake and extraction. We also identified a reduced ventilatory response during intradialytic exercise compared with interdialytic exercise. Impaired arterial-venous O2 difference during hemodialysis was partly restored by intradialytic exercise. Despite dysregulated cardiopulmonary and metabolic physiology during hemodialysis, intradialytic exercise was well tolerated.

Abstract
Background: We investigated the ability of a novel stand-alone, smartphone-based system, the cvrPhone, in estimating the minute ventilation (MV) from body surface electrocardiographic (ECG) signals. Methods: Twelve lead ECG signals were collected from anesthetized and mechanically ventilated swine (n = 9) using standard surface electrodes and the cvrPhone. The tidal volume delivered to the animals was varied between 0, 250, 500, and 750 mL at respiration rates of 6 and 14 breaths/min. MV estimates were determined by the cvrPhone and were compared with the delivered ones. Results: The median relative estimation errors were 17%, -4%, 35%, -3%, -9%, and 1%, for true MVs of 1,500, 3,000, 3,500, 4,500, 7,000, and 10,500 breaths*mL/min, respectively. The MV estimates at each of the settings were significantly different from each other (p < 0.05). Conclusions: We have demonstrated that accurate MV estimations can be derived from standard body surface ECG signals, using a smartphone.

Abstract
Breathing is coupled to metabolism. Leptin, a peptide mainly secreted in proportion to adipose tissue mass, increases energy expenditure with a parallel increase in breathing. We demonstrate that optogenetic activation of LepRb neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) mimics the respiratory stimulation after systemic leptin administration. We show that leptin activates the sodium leak channel (NALCN), thereby depolarizing a subset of glutamatergic (VGluT2) LepRb NTS neurons expressing galanin. Mice with selective deletion of NALCN in LepRb neurons have increased breathing irregularity and central apneas. On a high-fat diet, these mice gain weight with an associated depression of minute ventilation and tidal volume, which are not detected in control littermates. Anatomical mapping reveals LepRb NTS-originating glutamatergic axon terminals in a brainstem inspiratory premotor region (rVRG) and dorsomedial hypothalamus. These findings directly link a defined subset of NTS LepRb cells to the matching of ventilation to energy balance.

Abstract
Chronotropic incompetence is the inability of the sinus node to increase heart rate commensurate with increased metabolic demand. Cardiac pacing alone may be insufficient to address exercise intolerance, fatigue, dyspnea on exertion, and other symptoms of chronotropic incompetence. Rate-responsive (adaptive) pacing employs sensors to detect physical or physiological indices and mimic the response of the normal sinus node. This review describes the development, strengths, and limitations of a variety of sensors that have been employed to address chronotropic incompetence. A mini-tutorial on programming rate-adaptive parameters is included along with emphasis that patients' lifestyles and underlying medical conditions require careful consideration. In addition, special sensor applications used to respond prophylactically to physiologic signals are detailed and an in-depth discussion of sensors as a potential aid in heart failure management is provided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care recommend ventilation rates of eight to ten breaths per minute or two ventilations every 30 compressions, and tidal volumes between 500-600 ml. However, compliance with these guidelines is mainly unknown. The objective of this study is to estimate the proportion of simulated adult OHCA cases that meet guideline-based ventilation targets. METHODS We conducted a blinded prospective observational study of standardized simulated cases of EMS-witnessed adult OHCA. During scheduled training sessions, resuscitations were performed by high-quality CPR trained EMS teams composed of four on-duty, full-time EMT/Paramedics from a large urban fire-based EMS agency. A high-fidelity simulation center allowed complete audio and video monitoring from a control room. Rescuers were unaware of the study, or that ventilation practices were being observed. All interventions, including airway and ventilation strategies, were at the discretion of the clinical team. A calibrated Laerdal SimMan 3 G manikin and associated Laerdal Debrief Viewer software recorded ventilation rate, tidal volume, and minute ventilation. Simulations achieving median ventilation rate 7-10 breaths/min, tidal volume 500-600 ml, and minute ventilation 3.5-6 liters/min were considered meeting guideline-based targets. RESULTS A total of 106 EMS teams were included in the study. Only 3/106 [2.8% (95% CI: 0.6-8.0)] of the EMS teams demonstrated ventilation characteristics meeting all guideline-based targets. The median ventilation rate was 5.8 breaths/min (IQR 4.4-7.7 breaths/min) with 26/106 [24.5% (95% CI: 17.2-33.7)] between 7-10 breaths/min. The median tidal volume was 413.5 ml (IQR 280.5-555.4 ml), with 18/106 [17.0% (95% CI: 10.9-25.5)] between 500-600 ml. The median minute ventilation was 2.4 L/min (IQR 1.2-3.6 L/min) with 16/106 [15.1% (95% CI: 9.4-23.3)] between 3.5-6.0 L/min. CONCLUSION During simulated adult OHCA resuscitation attempts, ventilation practices rarely met guideline-based targets, despite being performed by well-trained EMS providers. Methods should be developed to monitor and ensure high-quality ventilation during actual OHCA resuscitation attempts.

Abstract
Maximal O2 uptake is impaired in end-stage renal disease (ESRD), reducing quality of life and longevity. While determinants of maximal exercise intolerance are well defined, little is known of limitation during submaximal constant load exercise. By comparing individuals with ESRD and healthy controls, the aim of this exploratory study was to characterize mechanisms of exercise intolerance in participants with ESRD by assessing cardiopulmonary physiology at rest and during exercise. Resting spirometry and echocardiography were performed in 20 dialysis-dependent participants with ESRD (age: 59 ± 12 yr, 14 men and 6 women) and 20 healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Exercise tolerance was assessed with ventilatory gas exchange and central hemodynamics during a maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test and 30 min of submaximal constant load exercise. Left ventricular mass (292 ± 102 vs. 185 ± 83 g, P = 0.01) and filling pressure (E/e': 6.48 ± 3.57 vs. 12.09 ± 6.50 m/s, P = 0.02) were higher in participants with ESRD; forced vital capacity (3.44 ± 1 vs. 4.29 ± 0.95 L/min, P = 0.03) and peak O2 uptake (13.3 ± 2.7 vs. 24.6 ± 7.3 mL·kg-1·min-1, P < 0.001) were lower. During constant load exercise, the relative increase in the arterial-venous O2 difference (13 ± 18% vs. 74 ± 18%) and heart rate (32 ± 18 vs. 75 ± 29%) were less in participants with ESRD despite exercise being performed at a higher percentage of maximum minute ventilation (48 ± 3% vs. 39 ± 3%) and heart rate (82 ± 2 vs. 64 ± 2%). Ventilatory and chronotropic incompetence contribute to exercise intolerance in individuals with ESRD. Both are potential targets for medical and lifestyle interventions.

Abstract
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest continues to be a devastating condition despite advances in resuscitation care. Ensuring effective gas exchange must be weighed against the negative impact hyperventilation can have on cardiac physiology and survival. The goals of this narrative review are to evaluate the available evidence regarding the role of ventilation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest resuscitation and to provide recommendations for future directions. Ensuring successful airway patency is fundamental for effective ventilation. The airway management approach should be based on professional skill level and the situation faced by rescuers. Evidence has explored the influence of different ventilation rates, tidal volumes, and strategies during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest; however, other modifiable factors affecting out-of-hospital cardiac arrest ventilation have limited supporting data. Researchers have begun to explore the impact of ventilation in adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest outcomes, further stressing its importance in cardiac arrest resuscitation management. Capnography and thoracic impedance signals are used to measure ventilation rate, although these strategies have limitations. Existing technology fails to reliably measure real-time clinical ventilation data, thereby limiting the ability to investigate optimal ventilation management. An essential step in advancing cardiac arrest care will be to develop techniques to accurately and reliably measure ventilation parameters. These devices should allow for immediate feedback for out-of-hospital practitioners, in a similar way to chest compression feedback. Once developed, new strategies can be established to guide out-of-hospital personnel on optimal ventilation practices.

Abstract
Monitoring respiratory values such as breathing frequency, minute ventilation, breathing effort, and dyspnea are common in acute care. There is evidence that accurate monitoring and interpretation of these values leads to early identification and treatment of impending respiratory failure. Despite this evidence, some values, such as breathing frequency, are largely undervalued in the clinical setting. The undervaluation of breathing frequency is complex and will require a multifaceted approach, including education and improved technology, to reestablish its clinical potential. Many questions remain regarding how to most efficiently and effectively monitor other respiratory values, like noninvasive minute volume and breathing effort, as well. As technology continues to improve alongside the understanding of respiratory physiology, clinicians are able to apply basic clinical assessment skills and technology together to improve patient safety and outcomes.

Abstract
Kinetic features such as oxygen uptake (V̇o2) mean response time (MRT), and gains of V̇o2, carbon dioxide output (V̇co2), and minute ventilation (V̇e) can describe physiological exercise responses during a constant work rate test of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aimed to establish simple guidelines that can identify COPD patients for whom kinetic analyses are (un)likely to be reliable and examined whether slow V̇o2 responses and gains of V̇o2, V̇co2, and V̇e are associated with ventilatory, cardiovascular, and/or physical impairments. Kinetic features were examined for 265 COPD patients [forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1): 54 ± 19%predicted] who performed a constant work rate test (duration > 180 s) with breath-by-breath measurements of V̇o2, V̇co2, and V̇e. Negative/positive predictive values were used to define cutoff values of relevant clinical variables below/above which kinetic analyses are (un)likely to be reliable. Kinetic feature values were unreliable for 21% (= 56/265) of the patients and for 79% (= 19/24) of the patients with a peak work rate (WRpeak)< 45 W. Kinetic feature values were considered reliable for 94% (= 133/142) of the patients with an FEV1 > 1.3 L. For patients exhibiting reliable kinetic feature values, V̇o2 MRT was associated with ventilatory (e.g., FEV1 %predicted: P < 0.001; r = -0.35) and physical (e.g., V̇o2peak %predicted: P = 0.009; r = -0.18) impairments. Gains were mainly associated with cardiac function and ventilatory constraints, representing both response efficiency and limitation. Kinetic analyses are likely to be unreliable for patients with a WRpeak < 45 W. Whereas gains enrich analyses of physiological exercise responses, V̇o2 MRT shows potential to serve as a motivation-independent, physiological indicator of physical performance.NEW & NOTEWORTHY A constant work rate test that is standardly performed during a prerehabilitation assessment is unable to provide reliable kinetic feature values for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with a peak work rate below 45 W. For patients suffering from less severe impairments, kinetic analyses are a powerful tool to examine physiological exercise responses. Especially oxygen uptake mean response time can serve as a motivation-independent, physiological indicator of physical performance in patients with COPD.

Abstract
Low-cost sensors can be used to improve the temporal and spatial resolution of an individual's particulate matter (PM) intake dose assessment. In this work, personal activity monitors were used to measure heart rate (proxy for minute ventilation), and low-cost PM sensors were used to measure concentrations of PM. Intake dose was assessed as a product of PM concentration and minute ventilation, using four models with increasing complexity. The two models that use heart rate as a variable had the most consistent results and showed a good response to variations in PM concentrations and heart rate. On the other hand, the two models using generalized population data of minute ventilation expectably yielded more coarse information on the intake dose. Aggregated weekly intake doses did not vary significantly between the models (6-22%). Propagation of uncertainty was assessed for each model, however, differences in their underlying assumptions made them incomparable. The most complex minute ventilation model, with heart rate as a variable, has shown slightly lower uncertainty than the model using fewer variables. Similarly, among the non-heart rate models, the one using real-time activity data has less uncertainty. Minute ventilation models contribute the most to the overall intake dose model uncertainty, followed closely by the low-cost personal activity monitors. The lack of a common methodology to assess the intake dose and quantifying related uncertainties is evident and should be a subject of further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are few reports in the literature supporting the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of intolerance in patients with COPD to perform unsupported upper limb activities. The aims of this study were to quantify the electrical activity and oxygenation of inspiratory and upper limb muscles, and to investigate whether electromyographic manifestations of muscle fatigue are related to upper limb function as assessed by the 6-min pegboard and ring test (6PBRT) in subjects with COPD and in healthy subjects. METHODS Thirty subjects with COPD (FEV1 42.1 ± 16.4% predicted; 68.0 ± 7.6 y old) comprised the COPD group, and 34 healthy subjects (66.8 ± 8.0 y old) comprised the control group. Both groups were assessed for body composition with dual-energy radiograph absorptiometry and spirometry. The 6PBRT was performed with simultaneous assessment of electromyography, near-infrared spectroscopy, and gas analyses (expiratory minute volume). RESULTS Differences were observed between groups for performance (number of rings) in the 6PBRT, with the COPD group achieving lower values than the control group (P < .001). The ventilatory demand (expiratory minute volume/maximum voluntary ventilation) and root mean square amplitude of the sternocleidomastoid muscle were higher in the COPD group than in the control group (P < .04). Lower values for oxyhemoglobin and total hemoglobin were found in intercostal muscles of the COPD group compared to the control group. The root mean square amplitude of the intercostal muscles was lower in the COPD group, while it was similar between groups for anterior deltoid and trapezius muscles. Median frequency of anterior deltoid muscles presented a decreased in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that the 6PBRT was performed at a higher electrical activity in the accessory inspiratory muscles, such as the sternocleidomastoid muscle, and a lower oxygenation profile in the intercostal muscles in subjects with COPD compared with healthy controls, but without muscle fatigue signs. These findings suggest that the higher ventilatory demand presented in subjects with COPD could have contributed to the worse performance in this group without signals of peripheral muscle limitation.

Abstract
Air pollution intake represents the amount of pollution inhaled into the body and may be calculated by multiplying an individual's ventilation rate with the concentration of pollutant present in their breathing zone. Ventilation rate is difficult to measure directly, and methods for estimating ventilation rate (and intake) are lacking. Therefore, the goal of this work was to examine how well linear models using heart rate and other basic physiologic data can predict personal ventilation rate. We measured personal ventilation and heart rate among a panel of subjects (n = 36) while they conducted a series of specified routine tasks of varying exertion levels. From these data, 136 candidate models were identified using a series of variable transformation and selection algorithms. A second "free‑living" validation study (n = 26) served as an independent validation dataset for these candidate models. The top‑performing model, which included heart rate (Hr), resting heart rate (Hrest), age, sex, and hip circumference and interactions between sex with Hr, Hrest, age, and hip predicted ventilation rate (Ve) to within 11% and 33% for moderate (Ve = 45 L/min) and low (Ve = 15 L/min) intensity activities, respectively, based on the validation study. Many of the promising candidate models performed substantially worse under independent validation. Our results indicate that while measures of air pollution exposure and intake are highly correlated within tasks for a given individual, this correlation decreases substantially across tasks (i.e., as individuals go about a series of typical daily activities). This discordance between exposure and intake may influence exposure‑response estimates in epidemiological studies. New air pollution studies should consider the trade‑offs between the predictive ability of intake models and the error potentially introduced by not accounting for ventilation rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postsurgical patients experiencing opioid-related adverse drug events have 55% longer hospital stays, 47% higher costs associated with their care, 36% increased risk of 30-day readmission, and 3.4 times higher risk of inpatient mortality compared to those with no opioid-related adverse drug events. Most of the adverse events are preventable. GENERAL AIM This study explored three types of electronic monitoring devices (pulse oximetry, capnography, and minute ventilation [MV]) to determine which were more effective at identifying the patient experiencing respiratory compromise and, further, to determine whether algorithms could be developed from the electronic monitoring data to aid in earlier detection of respiratory depression. MATERIALS AND METHODS A study was performed in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU) in an inner city. Sixty patients were recruited in the preoperative admissions department on the day of their surgery. Forty-eight of the 60 patients wore three types of electronic monitoring devices while they were recovering from back, neck, hip, or knee surgery. Machine learning models were used for the analysis. RESULTS Twenty-four of the 48 patients exhibited sustained signs of opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD). Although the SpO2 values did not change, end-tidal CO2 levels increased, and MV decreased, representing hypoventilation. A machine learning model was able to predict an OIRD event 10 min before the actual event occurred with 80% accuracy. LINKING EVIDENCE TO ACTION Electronic monitoring devices are currently used as a tool to assess respiratory status using thresholds to distinguish when respiratory depression has occurred. This study introduces a potential paradigm shift from a reactive approach to a proactive approach that would identify a patient at high risk for OIRD. Capnography and MV were found to be effective tools in detecting respiratory compromise in the PACU.

Abstract
Several Boston Scientific pacemaker models have a known issue with intermittent oversensing of the minute ventilation sensor when paired with non-Boston Scientific leads. Several of our patients with these hybrid systems have had transient out of range impedances and oversensing after safety switching which we suspected may be related. A retrospective analysis of 395 patients who had pacemakers implanted between 2015-2017 found that transient out of range impedances with safety switching was present in 9% of Boston Scientific pacemakers paired with Abbott or Medtronic leads compared with 0% in other device-lead combinations (P = 0.0089). We postulate that the root cause of the minute ventilation oversensing and transient high impedance issue is the same, a header-lead interaction from low-level incompatibility. Recognizing this issue is critical to prevent unnecessary lead revisions or extractions as it can be prevented with a simple reprogramming of lead pace/sense configuration.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to characterize the kinetics of cardio-respiratory parameters of elite male rowers during 2000m rowing time trial. 16 lightweight category (LWC) and 11 open category (OC) elite male rowers attending National camp were included in the study. Pulmonary gas exchange and heart rate (HR) during 2000m rowing ergometer test was determined through breath-by-breath analysis, with a portable metabolic gas analyzer and HR monitor. Time to completion, HR, oxygen uptake (V̇O2), minute ventilation (V̇E) and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) were recorded at 500m, 1000m, 1500m and 2000m intervals. No significant (p>0.05) difference was observed in the HR kinetics during 2000m rowing between the groups. However, split HR during the entire course was on the higher side in OC than LWC. Relative V̇O2 at 1000m (p<0.01), 1500m (p<0.05) and 2000m (p<0.01) was significantly less in OC rowers compared to LWC. However, V̇E was significantly higher for the OC group at 1500m (p<0.05) and 2000m (p<0.01) whereas RER was only significantly higher at 2000m (p<0.05). %change in absolute and relative V̇O2, V̇E and RER at each 500m interval showed no significant difference among the groups. OC rowers had taken significantly less time (p<0.05) to complete first 500m, 500m to 1000m and last 500m distance than LWC rowers. This detailed insight of rower's physiological responses can help coaches and support staff to determine the physiological working capacity of rowers at different levels, predicting performance and provided normative ranges for developing a representative physiological profile of elite Indian rowers.

Abstract
In idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) breathing pattern changes with disease progress. This study aims to determine if unsupervised hierarchal cluster analysis (HCA) can be used to define airflow profile differences in people with and without IPF. This was tested using 31 patients with IPF and 17 matched healthy controls, all of whom had their lung function assessed using spirometry and carbon monoxide CO transfer. A resting tidal breathing (RTB) trace of two minutes duration was collected at the same time. A Euclidian distance technique was used to perform HCA on the airflow data. Four distinct clusters were found, with the majority (18 of 21, 86%) of the severest IPF participants (Stage 2 and 3) being in two clusters. The participants in these clusters exhibited a distinct minute ventilation (p < 0.05), compared to the other two clusters. The respiratory drive was greatest in Cluster 1, which contained many of the IPF participants. Unstructured HCA was successful in recognising different airflow profiles, clustering according to differences in flow rather than time. HCA showed that there is an overlap in tidal airflow profiles between healthy RTB and those with IPF. The further application of HCA in recognising other respiratory disease is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transthoracic impedance measurements (TIM) is primarily used for minute ventilation rate adaptive sensors in pacemakers. With elevated impedance, the TIM electrical signal itself is oversensed, causing device malfunction. OBJECTIVE We report an increased incidence of TIM oversensing. METHOD Retrospective chart review. We review existing records of 18 patients who have demonstrated device malfunction with TIM oversensing. RESULTS We have found a 1.8% incidence of TIM-related oversensing in our patient population of 959 patients with contemporary Boston Scientific (Marlborough, MA, USA) pacemakers and cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemakers. One patient experienced a syncopal episode. CONCLUSION Oversensing with pacing inhibition is apparent with the potential of adverse effects to patients.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the appropriate home ventilator settings for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).In total, 71 patients with ALS, who had received either a noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) or tracheostomy positive pressure ventilation (TPPV), were included. Accordingly, patients were divided into 2 groups (the TPPV and NIPPV groups). We retrospectively evaluated the values used in home ventilators for patients with ALS, who had maintained a stable level of CO2 on both the arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) and transcutaneous blood gas monitoring. To measure the main outcome, we also investigated the actual body weight (ABW) and predicted body weight (PBW) of patients, and the following setting values of ventilators were also recorded: the inspired tidal volume (VTi), minute ventilation (MV), peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), and inspiratory time (Tins).VTi and MV showed a significantly positive correlation with both PBW and ABW of patients in the TPPV group. However, both VTi and MV had greater significant correlation with PBW than ABW in the TPPV group. In addition, VTi and MV did not show a significantly positive correlation with either PBW or ABW in the NIPPV group.In patients with ALS, PBW was more useful for predicting VTi and MV than ABW. Moreover, it will be helpful to know the differences of setting values between TPPV and NIPPV, especially because ALS patients are usually treated with TPPV due to the initial difficulties associated with NIPPV.

Abstract
Precocial birds begin embryonic life with an ectothermic metabolic phenotype and rapidly develop an endothermic phenotype after hatching. Switching to a high-energy, endothermic phenotype requires high-functioning respiratory and cardiovascular systems to deliver sufficient environmental oxygen to the tissues. We measured tidal volume (VT), breathing frequency (ƒ), minute ventilation (V̇e), and whole-animal oxygen consumption (V̇o2) in response to gradual cooling from 37.5°C (externally pipped paranates, EP) or 35°C (hatchlings) to 20°C along with response to hypercapnia during developmental transition from an ectothermic, EP paranate to endothermic hatchling. To examine potential eggshell constraints on EP ventilation, we repeated these experiments in artificially hatched early and late EP paranates. Hatchlings and artificially hatched late EP paranates were able to increase V̇o2significantly in response to cooling. EP paranates had high ƒ that decreased with cooling, coupled with an unchanging low VT and did not respond to hypercapnia. Hatchlings had significantly lower ƒ and higher VT and V̇e that increased with cooling and hypercapnia. In response to artificial hatching, all ventilation values quickly reached those of hatchlings and responded to hypercapnia. The timing of artificial hatching influenced the temperature response, with only artificially hatched late EP animals, exhibiting the hatchling ventilation response to cooling. We suggest one potential constraint on ventilatory responses of EP paranates is the rigid eggshell, limiting air sac expansion during inhalation and constraining VT Upon natural or artificial hatching, the VT limitation is removed and the animal is able to increase VT, V̇e, and thus V̇o2, and exhibit an endothermic phenotype.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to relate the overall rating of perceived exertion (RPE-overall) with cardiorespiratory and neuromuscular variables during stationary running with the elbow flexion/extension performed with water-floating equipment. The sample consisted of eleven women that performed the water-based exercise at submaximal cadences. The heart rate, oxygen uptake, ventilation, and electromyographic signal (EMG) from biceps brachii (%EMG BB), triceps brachii (%EMG TB), biceps femoris (%EMG BF) and rectus femoris (%EMG RF) muscles were measured during the exercise, and the overall RPE was measured immediately following its completion. The Pearson product-moment linear correlation was used to investigate associations between the variables analyzed in the present study. Significant relationships were observed between the RPE-overall and all the cardiorespiratory variables, with the r values ranging from 0.60 to 0.70 (p<0.05). In addition, the RPE-overall showed a significant (p<0.05) relationship with %EMG BB (r=0.55) and %EMG BF (r=0.50). These results suggest an association between the RPE-overall with all cardiorespiratory and two neuromuscular variables during the execution of a water-based aerobic exercise using water-floating equipment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diet modification may improve body composition and respiratory variables in children with respiratory insufficiency. Our objective was to examine the effect of an individualized diet intervention on changes in weight, lean body mass, minute ventilation, and volumetric CO2 production in children dependent on long-term mechanical ventilatory support. DESIGN Prospective, open-labeled interventional study. SETTING Study subjects' homes. PATIENTS Children, 1 month to 17 years old, dependent on at least 12 hr/d of transtracheal mechanical ventilatory support. INTERVENTIONS Twelve weeks of an individualized diet modified to deliver energy at 90-110% of measured energy expenditure and protein intake per age-based guidelines. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS During a multidisciplinary home visit, we obtained baseline values of height and weight, lean body mass percent by bioelectrical impedance analysis, actual energy and protein intake by food record, and measured energy expenditure by indirect calorimetry. An individualized diet was then prescribed to optimize energy and protein intake. After 12 weeks on this interventional diet, we evaluated changes in weight, height, lean body mass percent, minute ventilation, and volumetric CO2 production. Sixteen subjects, mean age 9.3 years (SD, 4.9), eight male, completed the study. For the diet intervention, a majority of subjects required a change in energy and protein prescription. The mean percentage of energy delivered as carbohydrate was significantly decreased, 51.7% at baseline versus 48.2% at follow-up, p = 0.009. Mean height and weight increased on the modified diet. Mean lean body mass percent increased from 58.3% to 61.8%. Minute ventilation was significantly lower (0.18 L/min/kg vs 0.15 L/min/kg; p = 0.04), and we observed a trend toward lower volumetric CO2 production (5.4 mL/min/kg vs 5.3 mL/min/kg; p = 0.06) after 12 weeks on the interventional diet. CONCLUSIONS Individualized diet modification is feasible and associated with a significant decrease in minute ventilation, a trend toward significant reduction in CO2 production, and improved body composition in children on long-term mechanical ventilation. Optimization of respiratory variables and lean body mass by diet modification may benefit children with respiratory insufficiency in the ICU.

Abstract
Respiratory volume monitoring (RVM) has been developed to noninvasively measure minute ventilation (V̇E), tidal volume, and breathing frequency and to display real-time respiratory curves in nonintubated patients. Although RVM was originally developed for post-anesthesia and monitored anesthesia care, we describe 3 applications for this monitor in an otherwise austere setting at a missionary hospital in Kijabe, Kenya. Applications of RVM can be utilized in any ICU in a developing or developed country.

Abstract
Our investigation was designed to determine whether the time of day affects the carbon dioxide reserve and chemoreflex sensitivity during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Ten healthy men with obstructive sleep apnea completed a constant routine protocol that consisted of sleep sessions in the evening (10 PM to 1 AM), morning (6 AM to 9 AM), and afternoon (2 PM to 5 PM). Between sleep sessions, the participants were awake. During each sleep session, core body temperature, baseline levels of carbon dioxide (PET(CO2)) and minute ventilation, as well as the PET(CO2) that demarcated the apneic threshold and hypocapnic ventilatory response, were measured. The nadir of core body temperature during sleep occurred in the morning and was accompanied by reductions in minute ventilation and PetCO2 compared with the evening and afternoon (minute ventilation: 5.3 ± 0.3 vs. 6.2 ± 0.2 vs. 6.1 ± 0.2 l/min, P < 0.02; PET(CO2): 39.7 ± 0.4 vs. 41.4 ± 0.6 vs. 40.4 ± 0.6 Torr, P < 0.02). The carbon dioxide reserve was reduced, and the hypocapnic ventilatory response increased in the morning compared with the evening and afternoon (carbon dioxide reserve: 2.1 ± 0.3 vs. 3.6 ± 0.5 vs. 3.5 ± 0.3 Torr, P < 0.002; hypocapnic ventilatory response: 2.3 ± 0.3 vs. 1.6 ± 0.2 vs. 1.8 ± 0.2 l·min(-1)·mmHg(-1), P < 0.001). We conclude that time of day affects chemoreflex properties during sleep, which may contribute to increases in breathing instability in the morning compared with other periods throughout the day/night cycle in individuals with sleep apnea.

Abstract
The ability to accurately monitor tidal volume (TV) from electrocardiographic (ECG) signals holds significant promise for improving diagnosis treatment across a variety of clinical settings. The objective of this study was to develop a novel method for estimating the TV from ECG signals. In 10 mechanically ventilated swine, we collected intracardiac electrograms from catheters in the coronary sinus (CS), left ventricle (LV), and right ventricle (RV), as well as body surface electrograms, while TV was varied between 0 and 750 ml at respiratory rates of 7-14 breaths/min. We devised an algorithm to determine the optimized respirophasic modulation of the amplitude of the ECG-derived respiratory signal. Instantaneous measurement of respiratory modulation showed an absolute error of 72.55, 147.46, 85.68, 116.62, and 50.89 ml for body surface, CS, LV, RV, and RV-CS leads, respectively. Minute TV estimation demonstrated a more accurate estimation with an absolute error of 69.56, 153.39, 79.33, 122.16, and 48.41 ml for body surface, CS, LV, RV, and RV-CS leads, respectively. The RV-CS and body surface leads provided the most accurate estimations that were within 7 and 10% of the true TV, respectively. Finally, the absolute error of the bipolar RV-CS lead was significantly lower than any other lead configuration (P < 0.0001). In conclusion, we have demonstrated that ECG-derived respiratory modulation provides an accurate estimation of the TV using intracardiac or body surface signals, without the need for additional hardware.

Abstract
It is well-known that respiratory activity influences electrocardiographic (ECG) morphology. In this article we present a new algorithm for the extraction of respiratory rate from either intracardiac or body surface electrograms. The algorithm optimizes selection of ECG leads for respiratory analysis, as validated in a swine model. The algorithm estimates the respiratory rate from any two ECG leads by finding the power spectral peak of the derived ratio of the estimated root-mean-squared amplitude of the QRS complexes on a beat-by-beat basis across a 32-beat window and automatically selects the lead combination with the highest power spectral signal-to-noise ratio. In 12 mechanically ventilated swine, we collected intracardiac electrograms from catheters in the right ventricle, coronary sinus, left ventricle, and epicardial surface, as well as body surface electrograms, while the ventilation rate was varied between 7 and 13 breaths/min at tidal volumes of 500 and 750 ml. We found excellent agreement between the estimated and true respiratory rate for right ventricular (R(2) = 0.97), coronary sinus (R(2) = 0.96), left ventricular (R(2) = 0.96), and epicardial (R(2) = 0.97) intracardiac leads referenced to surface lead ECGII. When applied to intracardiac right ventricular-coronary sinus bipolar leads, the algorithm exhibited an accuracy of 99.1% (R(2) = 0.97). When applied to 12-lead body surface ECGs collected in 4 swine, the algorithm exhibited an accuracy of 100% (R(2) = 0.93). In conclusion, the proposed algorithm provides an accurate estimation of the respiratory rate using either intracardiac or body surface signals without the need for additional hardware.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biological theories on respiratory regulation have linked separation anxiety disorder (SAD) to panic disorder (PD). We tested if SAD children show similarly increased anxious and psychophysiological responding to voluntary hyperventilation and compromised recovery thereafter as has been observed in PD patients. METHODS Participants were 49 children (5-14 years old) with SAD, 21 clinical controls with other anxiety disorders, and 39 healthy controls. We assessed cardiac sympathetic and parasympathetic, respiratory (including pCO2), electrodermal, electromyographic, and self-report variables during baseline, paced hyperventilation, and recovery. RESULTS SAD children did not react with increased anxiety or panic symptoms and did not show signs of slowed recovery. However, during hyperventilation they exhibited elevated reactivity in respiratory variability, heart rate, and musculus corrugator supercilii activity indicating difficulty with respiratory regulation. CONCLUSIONS Reactions to hyperventilation are much less pronounced in children with SAD than in PD patients. SAD children showed voluntary breathing regulation deficits.

Abstract
Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is one of the most important health metrics in apparently healthy individuals, those at increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) disease and virtually all patient populations. In addition to CRF, a host of other variables obtained from aerobic exercise testing provides clinically valuable information. Individuals classified as obese (i.e. a body mass index ≥30 kg/m(2)) have varying degrees of CV, pulmonary and skeletal muscle dysfunction that impact CRF and other key aerobic exercise testing variables. Moreover, there is now evidence indicating inspiratory and expiratory respiratory muscle function, even in the absence of interstitial lung disease, is potentially compromised as a result of obesity. When obesity-induced respiratory muscle dysfunction is present, it has the potential to contribute to the limitations in CRF. The current review will discuss aerobic exercise testing and the assessment of respiratory muscle function in the obese population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) remains the leading cause of infant mortality in Western societies. A prior study identified an association between hearing suppression on the newborn hearing test and subsequent death from SIDS. This is the first finding of an abnormality in SIDS cases prior to death. A following study identified that inner ear dysfunction precipitates a marked suppression of the hypercapnic ventilatory response (HCVR). Failure of arousal has been proposed to be a key component in SIDS. The objective of the present study was to assess whether inner ear dysfunction not only weakens the hypercapnic response, but also plays a role in suppressing the arousal response to suffocating gas mixtures. METHODS Wild-type mice (n=28) received intra-tympanic gentamicin (IT-Gent) injections bilaterally or unilaterally to precipitate inner ear hair cell dysfunction. Three control groups (n=22) received intra-tympanic saline (IT-Saline) bilaterally or unilaterally (right or left), or intra-peritoneal gentamicin (IP-Gent). The body movement arousal responses to severe hypoxia-hypercarbia combined (5% CO2 in nitrogen) were tested under light anesthesia 8 days following the administration of gentamicin or saline. RESULTS After injections, the bilateral and unilateral IT-Gent-treated animals behaved similarly to controls, however the HCVR as well as the arousal movements in response to severe hypoxia-hypercarbia were suppressed in IT-Gent-treated animals compared to control animals (P<0.05). Thus the HCVR was significantly decreased in the bilateral (n=9) and unilateral IT-Gent-treated mice (n=19) compared to bilateral (n=7) and unilateral IT-Saline (n=9) control groups (p<0.05). Arousal movements were suppressed in the bilateral IT-Gent group (n=9) compared to bilateral IT-Saline controls (n=7, P<0.0001) and in the unilateral IT-Gent group (n=19) compared to unilateral IT-Saline controls (n=10, P<0.0001). DISCUSSION The findings support the theory that inner ear dysfunction could be relevant in the pathophysiology of SIDS. The inner ear appears to play a key role in arousal from suffocating gas mixtures that has not been previously identified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the utility of the differentiated rating of perceived exertion (RPE) for the self-regulation of submaximal wheelchair propulsion in novice users. DESIGN Each participant completed a submaximal incremental test and a graded test to exhaustion to determine peak oxygen consumption (Vo(2)peak) on a wheelchair ergometer. On a separate day, two 12-minute intermittent bouts consisting of three 4-minute stages were completed at individualized imposed power outputs equating to light (40% Vo(2)peak) and moderate (60% Vo(2)peak) intensity exercise. On a third occasion, participants were assigned to either the overall group or the peripheral group and were required to self-regulate 12-minute intermittent exercise according to either overall RPE or peripheral RPE reported during the corresponding imposed intensity trial. SETTING Laboratory facilities at a university. PARTICIPANTS Preliminary population of able-bodied participants with no prior experience of wheelchair propulsion (N=18). INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Differences in oxygen consumption (Vo(2)), heart rate, blood lactate concentration, and power output between the imposed and self-regulated exercise trials. RESULTS No difference was found in physiological responses between the moderate-intensity imposed and RPE-regulated trials in the peripheral group, whereas a significant (P<.05) underproduction in Vo(2) (1.76±.31 vs 1.59±.25L/min) and blood lactate concentration (2.8±0.90 vs 2.21±.83mmol/L) was seen in the overall group. In contrast, a significant (P<.05) overproduction was seen in the peripheral group at a light exercise intensity, whereas no difference was found between all variables during the light-intensity imposed and RPE-regulated trials in the overall group. CONCLUSIONS Peripheral RPE enabled a more precise self-regulation during moderate-intensity wheelchair exercise in novice users. In contrast, overall RPE provided a more accurate stimulus when performing light-intensity propulsion.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether morphine depresses the ventilatory responses elicited by a hypoxic challenge (10% O2, 90% N2) in conscious rats at a time when the effects of morphine on arterial blood gas (ABG) chemistry, Alveolar-arterial (A-a) gradient and minute ventilation (VM) had completely subsided. In vehicle-treated rats, each episode of hypoxia stimulated ventilatory function and the responses generally subsided during each normoxic period. Morphine (5 mg/kg, i.v.) induced an array of depressant effects on ABG chemistry, A-a gradient and VM (via decreases in tidal volume). Despite resolution of these morphine-induced effects, the first episode of hypoxia elicited substantially smaller increases in VM than in vehicle-treated rats, due mainly to smaller increases in frequency of breathing. The pattern of ventilatory responses during subsequent episodes of hypoxia and normoxia changed substantially in morphine-treated rats. It is evident that morphine has latent deleterious effects on ventilatory responses elicited by hypoxic challenge.

Abstract
The systemic administration of morphine affects ventilation via a mixture of central and peripheral actions. The aims of this study were to characterize the ventilatory responses elicited by a low dose of morphine in conscious rats; to determine whether tolerance develops to these responses; and to determine the potential roles of peripheral μ-opioid receptors (μ-ORs) in these responses. Ventilatory parameters were monitored via unrestrained whole-body plethysmography. Conscious male Sprague-Dawley rats received an intravenous injection of vehicle or the peripherally-restricted μ-OR antagonist, naloxone methiodide (NLXmi), and then three successive injections of morphine (1 mg/kg) given 30 min apart. The first injection of morphine in vehicle-treated rats elicited an array of ventilatory excitant (i.e., increases in frequency of breathing, minute volume, respiratory drive, peak inspiratory and expiratory flows, accompanied by decreases in inspiratory time and end inspiratory pause) and inhibitory (i.e., a decrease in tidal volume and an increase in expiratory time) responses. Subsequent injections of morphine elicited progressively and substantially smaller responses. The pattern of ventilatory responses elicited by the first injection of morphine was substantially affected by pretreatment with NLXmi whereas NLXmi minimally affected the development of tolerance to these responses. Low-dose morphine elicits an array of ventilatory excitant and depressant effects in conscious rats that are subject to the development of tolerance. Many of these initial actions of morphine appear to involve activation of peripheral μ-ORs whereas the development of tolerance to these responses does not.

Abstract
The effect of exercise on the increase of exhaled CO in smokers compared to non-smokers has not been clarified yet. In this study we compared the dynamics of exhaled CO before, during and after exercise between smokers and non-smokers. A group of 8 smokers and a group of 8 non-smokers underwent a bicycle exercise in a ramp fashion to near maximum intensity. Ventilation and gas exchange, and CO exhalation were continuously measured every 30-s before, during and after the exercise. The fraction of CO (F (CO)) in the exhaled air decreased gradually, but the total amount of exhaled CO (V(CO)) increased in a linear manner during the ramp exercise, and F (CO) and returned to the pre-exercise level within several minutes after exercise in all subjects. A linear relationship was observed between V (O(2)) and V (CO) and between V (E) and V (CO) in both the whole period of measurement and during the ramp exercise period in all subjects. However, the at V (CO) 0 W, the peak V (CO) and the slope coefficients in the regression equation between V (CO) and V (O(2)) and between V (CO) and V (E) in the ramp exercise as well as the entire periods of measurement were significantly higher in smokers compared with those in non-smokers, and these were correlated with the number of cigarettes smoked per day. It was concluded that CO exhalation increases linearly with the increase of V (O(2)) and V (E) during exercise, and habitual smoking shifts these relationships upward depending on the number of cigarettes smoked daily.

Abstract
The identification of early indicators of hemorrhagic hypotension (HH) severity may support early therapeutic approaches and bring insights into possible mechanistic implications. However, few systematic investigations of physiologic variables during early stages of hemorrhage are available. We hypothesized that, in certain subjects, early physiologic responses to blood loss are associated with the ability to survive hemorrhage levels that are lethal to subjects that do not present the same responses. Therefore, we examine the relevance of specific systemic changes during and after the bleeding phase of HH. Stepwise hemorrhage, representing prehospital situations, was performed in 44 rats, and measurements were made after each step. Heart and respiratory rates, arterial and venous blood pressures, gases, acid-base status, glucose, lactate, electrolytes, hemoglobin, O(2) saturation, tidal volume, and minute volume were measured before, during, and after bleeding 40% of the total blood volume. Fifty percent of rats survived 100 min (survivors, S) or longer; others were considered nonsurvivors (NS). Our findings were as follows: (1) S and NS subjected to a similar hemorrhage challenge showed significantly different responses during nonlethal levels of bleeding; (2) survivors showed higher blood pressure and ventilation than NS; (3) although pH was lower in NS at later stages, changes in bicarbonate and base excess occurred already during the hemorrhage phase and were higher in NS; and (4) plasma K(+) levels and glucose extraction were higher in NS. We conclude that cardiorespiratory and metabolic responses, essential for the survival at HH, can differentiate between S and NS even before a lethal bleeding was reached.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the agreement and consistency between gas exchange variables measured by two online metabolic systems during an incremental exercise test. After obtaining local ethics approval and informed consent, 15 healthy subjects performed an incremental exercise test to volitional fatigue using the Bruce protocol. The Innocor (Innovision, Denmark) and CardiO2 (Medical Graphics, USA) systems were placed in series, with the Innocor mouthpiece attached to the pneumotach of the CardiO2. Metabolic data were analysed during the last 30 seconds of each stage and at peak exercise. There were non- significant differences (p > 0.05) between the two systems in estimation of oxygen consumption (VO2) and in minute ventilation (VE). Mean Cronbach's alpha for VO2 and VE were 0.88 and 0.92. The Bland-Altman analysis revealed that limits of agreement were -0.52 to 0.55 l.min(-1) for VO2, and -8.74 to 10.66 l.min(-1) for VE. Carbon dioxide production (VCO2) and consequently respiratory exchange ratio (RER) measured by the Innocor were significantly lower (p < 0.05) through all stages. The CardiO2 measured fraction of expired carbon dioxide (FeCO2) significantly higher (p < 0.05). The limits of agreement for VO2 and VE are wide and unacceptable in cardio-pulmonary exercise testing. The Innocor reported VCO2 systematically lower. Therefore the Innocor and CardiO2 metabolic systems cannot be used interchangeably without affecting the diagnosis of an individual patient. Results from the present study support previous suggestion that considerable care is needed when comparing metabolic data obtained from different automated metabolic systems. Key pointsThere is general concern regarding the limited knowledge available about the accuracy of a number of commercially available systems.Demonstrated limits of agreement between key gas exchange variables (oxygen consumption and minute ventilation) as measured by the two metabolic systems were wide and unacceptable in cardio-pulmonary exercise testing.Considerable care is needed when comparing metabolic data obtained from different automated metabolic systems.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Episodic hypoxia (EH) is followed by increased ventilatory motor output in the recovery period indicative of long-term facilitation (LTF). We hypothesized that episodic hypoxia evokes LTF of genioglossus (GG) muscle activity in humans during non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM) sleep. We studied 12 normal non-flow limited humans during stable NREM sleep. We induced 10 brief (3 min) episodes of isocapnic hypoxia followed by 5 min of room air. Measurements were obtained during control, hypoxia, and at 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 min of recovery, respectively, for minute ventilation (V(I)), supraglottic pressure (P(SG)), upper airway resistance (R(UA)) and phasic GG electromyogram (EMG(GG)). In addition, sham studies were conducted on room air. During hypoxia there was a significant increase in phasic EMG(GG) (202.7+/-24.1% of control, p<0.01) and in V (I) (123.0+/-3.3% of control, p<0.05); however, only phasic EMG(GG) demonstrated a significant persistent increase throughout the recovery. (198.9+/-30.9%, 203.6+/-29.9% and 205.4+/-26.4% of control, at 5, 10, and 20 min of recovery, respectively, p<0.01). In multivariate regression analysis, age and phasic EMG(GG) activity during hypoxia were significant predictors of EMG(GG) at recovery 20 min. No significant changes in any of the measured parameters were noted during sham studies. CONCLUSION (1) EH elicits LTF of GG in normal non-flow limited humans during NREM sleep, without concomitant ventilatory or mechanical LTF. (2) GG activity during the recovery period correlates with the magnitude of GG activation during hypoxia, and inversely with age.

Abstract
Contusion spinal cord injury (SCI) at T8 produces respiratory abnormalities in conscious rats breathing room air and challenged with CO2. In seeking ways to improve respiration after SCI, we tested drugs that stimulate serotonin 1A (5-HT1A) receptors, based on our previous findings that these agents can counteract respiratory depression produced by morphine overdose. Respiratory function was measured with a head-out plethysmograph system in conscious rats. T8 SCI rats (n = 5) showed decreased tidal volume (Vt; 0.90 +/- 0.02-0.66 +/- 0.03 ml; p < 0.05) and increased respiratory rate (f;91 +/- 3.7-132 +/- 5.7 breaths/min; p < 0.05) with room air ventilation at 24 hr after injury. They also exhibited a diminished response to the respiratory stimulating effect of 7% CO2; minute ventilation increased to 250 +/- 17 ml/min before, but only to 162 +/- 15 ml/min at 24 hr after SCI (p < 0.05). Respiratory deficits during room air ventilation were also observed at 7 d after injury (n = 3). Treatment with the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylmino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT; 250 microg/kg, i.p.) at 24 hr (n = 5) or 7 d (n = 3) after injury normalized Vt, f, and the respiratory response to 7% CO2. Identical results were obtained with another 5-HT1A receptor agonist, buspirone (1.5 mg/kg, i.p.; n = 3). In contrast, intraperitoneal saline vehicle administration (n = 5) showed no beneficial effects on SCI-impaired respiration. Finally, pretreatment with a specific antagonist of 5-HT1A receptors, 4-iodo-N-[2-[4-(methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-2-pyridinyl-benzamide (3 mg/kg, i.p.; n = 3) given 20 min before 8-OH-DPAT, prevented 8-OH-DPAT from restoring respiration to normal. Our results demonstrate that drugs that stimulate 5-HT1A receptors counteract respiratory abnormalities in conscious rats after SCI.

Abstract
Acute focal injection of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) protects ventral horn (VH) neurons from death after experimental contusive spinal cord injury (SCI) at T8. Because these neurons innervate respiratory muscles, we hypothesized that respiratory deficits resulting from SCI would be attenuated by FGF2 treatment. To test this hypothesis we used a head-out plethysmograph system to evaluate respiratory parameters in conscious rats before and at 24 hr and 7, 28, and 35 d after SCI. Two groups of rats (n = 8 per group) received either FGF2 (3 microg) beginning 5 min after injury or vehicle (VEH) solution alone. We found significantly increased respiratory rate and decreased tidal volume at 24 hr and 7 d after SCI in the VEH-treated group. Ventilatory response to breathing 5 or 7% CO(2) was also significantly reduced. Recovery took place over time. Respiration remained normal in the FGF2-treated group. At 35 d after injury, histological analyses were used to compare long-term neuron survival. FGF2 treatment doubled the survival of VH neurons adjacent to the injury site. Because the number of surviving VH neurons rostral to the injury epicenter was significantly correlated to the ventilatory response to CO(2), it is likely that the absence of respiratory deficits in FGF2-treated rats was caused by its neuroprotective effect. Our results demonstrate that FGF2 treatment prevents the respiratory deficits produced by thoracic SCI. Because FGF2 also reduced the loss of preganglionic sympathetic motoneurons after injury, this neurotrophic factor may have broad therapeutic potential for SCI.

Abstract
In order to observe physiologic responses to exercise and measure the normal value of maximal oxygen uptake, an exercise stress test, using a bicycle ergometer, was carried out on 82 normal males, 20 to 60 years of age. The exercise test consisted of 1 minute of unloaded cycling with an increment of 25 watts each minute to the point of exhaustion. Oxygen uptake, anaerobic threshold(AT), minute ventilation, and CO2 output were measured with an automatic gas analyzer and a pneumotachograph during the exercise. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The maximal oxygen uptake in the 20–29 year-old group of subjects was 39.6ml/min/kg, and it decreased with advancing age. 2. The anaerobic threshold was 1.22–1.5 L/min in all age groups. No significant differences by age were observed. The mean ratio of the anaerobic threshold to the maximal oxygen uptake was 57%. 3. The minute ventilation at maximal exercise was 65% of the maximal voluntary ventilation. This means that the subject cannot perform exercise at all, because of shortness of breath, that some potentially useful ventilation is left.
