Ventilatory Flow Dynamics Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ventilatory flow signals were recorded, amplified, digitized and analyzed using iOX 2.10 (EMKA Technologies) to determine ventilatory parameters over sequential 20 s epochs (~50 breaths), during periods of behavioral quiescence and regular breathing. Minute ventilation (VE, ml/min/g) was calculated as the product of respiratory frequency (fR, breaths/min) and tidal volume (VT, ml/breath), and normalized to body weight (g). For analysis of the basal VE in hyperoxia, or acute hypercapnic ventilatory response, we sampled 10 consecutive epochs (200 s, representing ~400–500 breaths at rest) that showed the least inter-breath irregularity during the steady-state plateau period after each CO2 exposure, as determined by Poincaré analysis. For neonates, we obtained measurements from periods of time when the mice were visibly quiescent. The response to hypoxia was determined from the peak VE during the hypoxic exposure (from a 20 s epoch at ~30 s to 1 min) 12 (link). Analysis was performed by individuals blinded to treatment and/or genotype.

Rat Pulmonary Function Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lung function was assessed as described previously51 . Respiratory function was measured using a pulmonary function testing system (Emka Technologies, Paris, France), and the raw data were converted using specialized analysis software (IOX 2.9.4.32, Emka Technologies). Briefly, conscious rats were placed in plethysmography chambers for more than 15 minutes, eliminate the data animals adapt to their environments or sleep. The measured indices included inspiratory time, expiratory time, peak inspiratory flow, peak expiratory flow, tidal volume, expiratory volume, relaxation time, minute respiratory volume, end-inspiratory/expiratory pause and respiratory frequency.

Respiratory Function Assessment in Rats

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Respiratory function was measured using a whole body plethysmography system (Emka Technologies, Paris, France) and the raw data were converted using specialized analysis software (IOX 2.9.4.32, Emka Technologies). Briefly, conscious rats were placed in plethysmography chambers for 10–15 min, eliminating data from animals adapting to their environments or sleeping. The test parameters, including respiratory rate (f), expiratory flow at 50% tidal volume (EF50), peak expiratory flow (PEF), peak inspiratory flow (PIF), tidal volume (TV), minute ventilation volume (MV), expiratory volume (EV), inspiratory time (Ti), relaxation time (RT) and expiratory time (Te), were recorded during a 3–8 min period once a week for 11 weeks [56 (link)].

Measuring Mean Arterial Pressure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mean arterial pressure (MAP) was determined by catheterization of the femoral artery. The catheter was connected to a pressure transducer (−50, +300 mmHg) and amplifier (Emka Technologies, Paris, France). MAP was calculated using the values of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) by the Iox 2.9.5.73 software (Emka Technologies, Paris, France). To calculate a mean arterial pressure, double the diastolic blood pressure and add the sum to the systolic blood pressure. Then divide by 3. MAP = (SBP + 2 (DBP))/3.

Autonomic Nervous System Balance Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic components of the autonomic nervous system was made by calculating the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) indexes computed in Kubios HRV software (www.kubios.com). The SNS index in Kubios is based on Mean heart rate, Baevsky’s stress index, and low frequency power expressed in normalized units and the PNS index which is based on the mean intervals between successive heartbeats (RR intervals), the root mean square of successive RR interval differences (RMSSD) and high frequency power expressed in normalized units. Heart rate and RR intervals were obtained using Iox 2.9.5.73 software (Emka Technologies, Paris, France), with an acquisition frequency of 500 Hz.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
