Journal ArticleDOI
Gravity is a minor determinant of pulmonary blood flow distribution.
TL;DR: Under zone 3 conditions, neither gravity nor radial location is the principal determinant of regional perfusion distribution in supine and prone dogs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applications of fractal analysis to physiology
TL;DR: Although the methods used for fractal analyses of physiological data are still under development and will require additional validation, they appear to have great potential for the study of physiology at scales of resolution ranging from the microcirculation to the intact organism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal properties of pulmonary blood flow: characterization of spatial heterogeneity.
Robb W. Glenny,H. T. Robertson +1 more
TL;DR: The heterogeneity of pulmonary blood flow was examined using a fractal analytic procedure, and the results were compared with the traditional gravitational model of flow distribution, suggesting that gravitation plays a secondary role to an underlying process producing heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary gas exchange during exercise in athletes. I. Ventilation-perfusion mismatch and diffusion limitation
TL;DR: The data suggest that this population develops diffusion limitation during maximal exercise, but VA/Q mismatch is the most important contributor (> 60%) to the wide AaDO2 observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractal modeling of pulmonary blood flow heterogeneity.
Robb W. Glenny,H. T. Robertson +1 more
TL;DR: These fractally branching models relate structure and function of the pulmonary vascular tree and provide a mechanism to describe the spatially correlated distribution of flow and the gravity-independent heterogeneity of blood flow.
