Editorial Reviews

Breathing, rather than a building's air circulation system, is the topic of the 68 papers. They cover the neurophysiology of breathing control, the pathophysiology of breathing control and breathing awake and asleep, exercise and pulmonary ventilation, and the chemical control of breathing. Among the specific topics are new computational models of the respiratory oscillator in mammals, possible genomic mechanisms involved in control systems' responses to hypoxia, ventilatory responses during ramp exercise in hyperoxia, and cholinergic dimensions to carotid body chemotransduction.
