A multicompartment model of carboxyhemoglobin and carboxymyoglobin responses to inhalation of carbon monoxideEugene N Bruce
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
J Appl Physiol 95:1235-47. 2003..In contrast to approaches based on the Coburn-Forster-Kane equation, the present model predicts uptake and distribution of CO in both vascular and tissue compartments during inhalation of either constant or variable levels of CO...
A mathematical modeling approach to risk assessment for normal and anemic women chronically exposed to carbon monoxide from biomass-fueled cookstovesEugene N Bruce
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
J Appl Physiol 111:473-84. 2011..Our results demonstrate the efficacy of using a mathematical model to predict the physiologic responses to CO and also demonstrate that chronic anemia is a critically important determinant of CO toxicity in these women...
Prediction of the rate of uptake of carbon monoxide from blood by extravascular tissuesEugene N Bruce
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
Respir Physiol Neurobiol 161:142-59. 2008..We conclude that slow uptake is most consistent with all of the experimental data. Slow uptake of CO by tissue is primarily due to the very small blood-to-tissue partial pressure gradients for CO...
Sample entropy tracks changes in electroencephalogram power spectrum with sleep state and agingEugene N Bruce
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40506 0070, USA
J Clin Neurophysiol 26:257-66. 2009..029) and rapid eye movement (P = 0.001), suggesting that cortical state is shifted toward alertness in elderly subjects in these sleep states compared with the middle-aged subjects...
Progressive changes in cortical state before and after spontaneous arousals from sleep in elderly and middle-aged womenE N Bruce
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY, USA
Neuroscience 175:184-97. 2011....
Mutual information analysis of EEG signals indicates age-related changes in cortical interdependence during sleep in middle-aged versus elderly womenPravitha Ramanand
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40506 0070, USA
J Clin Neurophysiol 27:274-84. 2010..The loss of synchronization between neural activities during sleep in the elderly may make these women more susceptible to localized disturbances that could lead to frequent arousals...
Transient decoupling of cortical EEGs following arousals during NREM sleep in middle-aged and elderly womenPravitha Ramanand
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
Int J Psychophysiol 77:71-82. 2010..The findings suggest that the state following an arousal characterized by lower interdependence may resemble a more vigilant period during which the system may be vulnerable to more arousals...
Computational analyses of CO-rebreathing methods for estimating haemoglobin mass in humansKinnera E Chada
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
Exp Physiol 97:141-54. 2012..Regression equations were developed to improve the estimation of volume of CO bound to myoglobin, and a new protocol that is less dependent on the site of blood sampling is proposed...
Prediction of extravascular burden of carbon monoxide (CO) in the human heartKinnera Erupaka
Center for Biomedical Engineering, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506 0070, USA
Ann Biomed Eng 38:403-38. 2010..Because the model can predict CO uptake and distribution in human myocardium, it could be a tool to estimate the potential for hypoxic myocardial injury and facilitate therapeutic intervention...
Analysis of factors that influence rates of carbon monoxide uptake, distribution, and washout from blood and extravascular tissues using a multicompartment modelMargaret C Bruce
Department of Physiology, University of Kentucky, Lexington, 40506-0070, USA
J Appl Physiol 100:1171-80. 2006..Thus exposure conditions, COHb sampling times, and individual parameters should be considered when estimating CO washout rates for poisoning victims...
Dexamethasone-induced changes in lung function are not prevented by concomitant treatment with retinoic acidGanesh Srinivasan
Department of Pediatrics, University of Kentucky Medical School, Lexington, Kentucky 40536, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 283:L275-87. 2002..006). Despite impaired septation, O(2) saturation was not compromised in Dex- or Dex + RA-treated rats. Thus lung function changes induced by Dex treatment during alveolarization were not prevented by concomitant treatment with RA...
