Patterns of cocaine and opioid co-use and polyroutes of administration among street-based cocaine users in Montréal, Canada
(2013)
Background: Effective public health programs aimed at problematic cocaine users are challenged by the fact that they can have complex patterns of drug use with respect to polysubstance use and routes of drug administration. ...
Effects of moderate hyperbilirubinemia on nutritive swallowing and swallowing-breathing coordination in preterm lambs
(2015)
Background:
Hyperbilirubinemia (HB) occurs in 90% of preterm newborns. HB induces acute neurological disorders (somnolence, abnormal tone, feeding difficulties, auditory dysfunction) and alterations in respiratory ...
Presence of task-1 channel in the laryngeal mucosa in the newborn lamb
(2011)
Nearly 40 potassium channels have been described in respiratory epithelial cells. Of these are found several members of the 4-transmembrane domain, 2-pore K(+) channel family (K2P family), namely Twik-1 and -2, Trek-1 and ...
Laryngeal narrowing during nasal ventilation does not originate from bronchopulmonary C-fibers
(2014)
We previously showed that nasal pressure support ventilation (nPSV) can lead to active inspiratory laryngeal narrowing, which originates from the stimulation of bronchopulmonary receptors. Among the three major types of ...
Portraying persons who inject drugs recently infected with hepatitis C accessing antiviral treatment : a cluster analysis
(2014)
Objectives. To empirically determine a categorization of people who inject drug (PWIDs) recently infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV), in order to identify profiles most likely associated with early HCV treatment uptake. ...
Effects of reflux laryngitis on non-nutritive swallowing in newborn lambs
(2014)
Reflux laryngitis in infants may be involved not only in laryngeal disorders, but also in disorders of cardiorespiratory control through its impact on laryngeal function. Our objective was to study the effect of reflux ...
Effects of reflux laryngitis on laryngeal chemoreflexes in newborn lambs
(2011)
It has been suggested that reflux laryngitis (RL) is involved in apneas-bradycardias of the newborn. The aim of the present study was to develop a unique RL model in newborn lambs to test the hypothesis that RL enhances ...
Radio telemetry devices to monitor breathing in non-sedated animals
(2011)
Radio telemetry equipment has significantly improved over the last 10-15 years and is increasingly being used in research for monitoring a variety of physiological parameters in non-sedated animals. The aim of this review ...
Milk temperature influences esophageal motility in the newborn lamb
(2013)
Esophageal dysmotility is common in infants. We aimed to evaluate the influence of milk temperature on esophageal motility using multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH monitoring (MII-pH). Five healthy lambs, ages 2 to 3 ...
Virtual knowledge brokering : describing the roles and strategies used by knowledge brokers in a pediatric physiotherapy virtual community of practice
(2016)
Introduction: Knowledge transfer in pediatric rehabilitation is challenging and requires active, multifaceted strategies. The use of knowledge brokers (KBs) is one such strategy noted to promote clinician behavior change. ...
