Does sustained hypoxia depress sensory processing of respiratory resistive loads?
These data confirm that isocapnic hypoxia suppresses respiratory load sensation. Decreased amplitude of the earlier (P1) RREP component suggests that this is mediated, at least in part, by suppression of respiratory afferent information before its arrival at the primary sensory cortex.
The CT attenuation value of renal calculi can help to differentiate stones that are likely to fragment easily on ESWL from those that would require a greater number of shock waves for fragmentation or may fail to fragment on ESWL.
