DOI: 10.1007/s00408-021-00422-0
Abstract: Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) could be useful clinical parameters in monitoring many conditions including cystic fibrosis (CF). However, current protocols for undertaking the measurements lack standardization including the number of… read more here.

Abstract: Respiratory muscle weakness either occurs in isolation or as part of a more generalized neuromuscular process. In the former case, this is very often self-limiting as, for example, after iatrogenic damage to the phrenic nerve… read more here.
