Orexin neurons are sensitive to CO 2 and contribute to cardiorespiratory homeostasis as well
as sensorimotor control. Whether orexin facilitates respiratory and behavioral responses to …

AIM: To determine the prevalence for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and HBV screening and vaccination
practices for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS: This study is a retrospective…

We recently showed that in male rats, orexin contributes to the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR),
with a stronger effect in the active phase. The effect of orexin on the HVR in females …

We previously showed that orexin neurons are activated by hypoxia and facilitate the peripheral
chemoreflex (PCR)-mediated hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR), mostly by promoting …

Increased sensitivity of the peripheral chemoreflex (PCR) to hypoxia is associated with
cardiovascular-related diseases such as hypertension and heart failure. We previously showed …

Adalimumab (ADA) is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor, used for the treatment of
inflammatory bowel disease. Previous studies have reported an increased risk of cancer following …

Malignant mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis is an extremely rare and aggressive tumor
that is frequently encountered in elderly patients. The diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma of …

Purpose: To determine the prevalence of HBV infection among IBD patients and compare it
with that reported in European studies, and to determine HBV screening and vaccination …

Orexin neurons project to nuclei participating in the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR),
including to the nucleus tractus solitarius (nTS) and paraventricular nucleus of the …

The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) contributes significantly to the
peripheral chemoreflex-mediated respiratory and sympathetic responses to hypoxia, in part via …
