Sentence examples for diaphragm of normal from inspiring English sources

In addition to serving as a structural protein of the slit diaphragm of normal podocytes, podocin might also serve as a scaffold that links tight junction proteins to the actin cytoskeleton in nephrotic foot processes (Shono et al., 2007).

We used tibialis cranialis (TC) muscles and diaphragms of normal dogs and those with CXMDJ at various ages from 1 month to 3 years old.

In fact, in TC muscles or diaphragms of normal dogs, there were no significant differences among compositions of fiber types and MHC isoforms after 4 months old (Fig 6 and 7).

To investigate the relationship between the pathology and fiber types in dystrophic skeletal muscles of CXMDJ, we first examined histological features and MHC expression in TC muscles and diaphragms of normal and affected dogs at adult stages (10 months to 3 years old) (Fig. 1).

For quantitative evaluation of MHC expression in individual myofibers, we counted three types of MHC-expressing fibers among non-regenerating or regenerating populations within an area in the TC muscle or diaphragm of a normal or an affected littermate (Fig. 6).

In TC muscles and diaphragms of adult normal dogs, individual myofibers showed expression of either fast or slow type MHC.

To investigate how MHC expression alters together with growth of CXMDJ, we examined MHC expression in TC muscles and diaphragms of a normal or an affected littermate at various ages from neonatal to adult stages (1 month to 1 year old) in relation to histopathological features.

The mechanical properties of the retrieved diaphragmatic scaffolds were similar to those of normal diaphragm at the designated time points.

However, previous population studies of normal diaphragm position and shape frequently lack objective radiographic measurements and documentation of pulmonary function, and do not account for the observed variability.

The electromyogram (EMG) of the diaphragm revealed a normal distal motor latency with normal CMAP-amplitude of phrenic nerve on both sides.

It has been well established that the diaphragm contractile function decreases rapidly [ 4] to about 25% of normal values [ 3, 5- 8] in critically ill and mechanically ventilated patients.
