Diaphragm monitoring relies on the measurement of trans diaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) during cervical magnetic stimulation (CMS). Specifically, twitch Pdi (Pditw) is measured using esophageal and ...

DREADD-mediated activation of phrenic motor output produces sustained increases in diaphragm activity and tidal volume, highlighting a potential strategy to restore breathing in clinical conditions ...

Recently, we proposed a surgical standardization following esophagectomy for revascularization of the gastric tube transposed by the posterior mediastinum using neck vessels (external jugular vein and ...
