The effects of threshold inspiratory muscle training in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a randomized experimental study
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (an obstructed airway and intermittent hypoxia) negatively affect their respiratory muscles. We evaluated the effects of a 12-week threshold inspiratory muscle train...

Pulse Oximetry Monitor Feasible for Early Screening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
We postulate that using a simple pulse oximetry monitor (POM) to detect the severity of OSA will help clinical staff confirm the need for early treatment. Hence, we compared the POM-derived oxygen desaturation...

Induction of nitric oxide synthase in raw 264.7 macrophages by lipoteichoic acid fromStaphylococcus aureus: Involvement of protein kinase C- and nuclear factor-kB-dependent mechanisms
This study investigates the signaling pathway involved in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and nitric oxide (NO) release caused byStaphylococcus aureus lipoteichoic acid (LTA) in RAW 264.7 macrop...
