    Abstract : In this thesis we explore and further develop several techniques used in the animal laboratory as well as in the clinical setting. In particular, we expand the understanding and usefulness of plethysmographic techniques in small rodents. READ MORE

  2. 2. Lung function in micro- and in hypergravity

    Author : Stéphanie Montmerle; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Lung physiology; human; spirometry; rebreathing; cardiogenic oscillations; phase IV; anti-G suit; stroke volume; weightlessness; closing volume; DLCO;

    Abstract : The lung is extremely susceptible to gravity, even during short-term changes of the gravity vector, because it is a mixture of air and elastic tissue components. Yet, there is limited knowledge of the effects of gravity on the respiratory system. READ MORE
