Do the role of high-frequency jet ventilation in the treatment of Cheyne-Stokes respiration in patients with chronic heart failure?
One night of therapy with HFJV improved nocturnal breathing pattern and sleep quality in patients with Cheyne-Stokes respiration in chronic heart failure. HFJV therapy for sleep and breathing were the same as those during a nasal CPAP night. A long-term study of the effect of HFJV on cardiovascular function is needed.
MSG obesity in rats was not associated with alterations in pro-inflammatory markers in retroperitoneal fat stores; however, reductions in the serum concentrations of anti-inflammatory cytokines and of TNF-α were observed. TAU treatment decreased adiposity, and this effect was associated with the normalization of circulating TNF-α and IL-4 concentrations in MTAU rats.
