This document summarizes the regulation of respiration through two main mechanisms: nervous and chemical. The nervous mechanism involves respiratory centers in the brainstem that control breathing rate and depth. The chemical mechanism involves chemoreceptors that detect changes in blood gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, stimulating the respiratory centers to increase or decrease breathing. Central chemoreceptors in the brain are more sensitive to increased carbon dioxide while peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid body strongly respond to decreased oxygen levels. Together these mechanisms maintain appropriate gas exchange and pH levels in the blood through adjustments to respiratory rate and depth.
Regulation of respiration (the guyton and hall physiology)Maryam Fida
Normal respiration is spontaneous and unconscious.
There are 4 groups of neurons on each side in the Pons and medulla oblongata which are involved in regulation of respiration. These include
1. Medullary centers
Dorsal respiratory group of neurons
Ventral respiratory group of neurons
2. Pontine centers
Pneumotaxic centre
Apneustic centre.
It contains “I”neurons which are inspiratory neurons.
It’s located in dorsal portion of medulla oblongata.
It also includes the nucleus of tractus solitarius which is the sensory termination of afferent fibers in 9th ( GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE) and 10th (VAGUS NERVE) cranial nerves.
They receive impulses from peripheral chemoreceptors, carotid and aortic baroreceptors and also other receptors in the lungs.
In this group inspiratory ramp signals are produced spontaneously.
If we cut the medulla oblongata from other parts of brain and also the afferent nerves which enter the medulla, still inspiratory ramp signals are produced which indicate it’s the inherent property of medulla.
Initially the signal is weak and then it progressively increases and then fades away.
Each ramp signal’s duration is 2 sec and then for 3 seconds there is no ramp signal.
So each cycle lasts for 5 seconds and there are 12 cycles /minute which is the respiratory rate.
Significance of the signal in the form of ramp is that it causes progressive expansion of the lungs. After production, these ramp signals are transmitted to the contra lateral motor neurons supplying the inspiratory muscles.
Rate and duration of inspiratory ramp signals is controlled by impulses from the Pneumotaxic centre and impulses from the lungs via vagi.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
2. INTRODUCTION
• Respiration is a reflex process. But it can be
controlled voluntarily for a short period of about
40 seconds.
• However, by practice, breathing can be withheld
for a long period. At the end of that period, the
person is forced to breathe.
• Normally, quiet regular breathing occurs because
of two regulatory mechanisms:
1. Nervous or neural mechanism
2. Chemical mechanism.
3. NERVOUS MECHANISM
• Nervous mechanism that regulates the
respiration includes:
1. Respiratory centers
2. Afferent nerves
3. Efferent nerves.
4. RESPIRATORY CENTERS
• Respiratory centers are group of neurons, which
control the rate, rhythm and force of respiration. These
centers are bilaterally situated in reticular formation of
the brainstem . Depending upon the situation in
brainstem, the respiratory centers are
• classified into two groups:
A. Medullary centers consisting of
1. Dorsal respiratory group of neurons
2. Ventral respiratory group of neurons
B. Pontine centers
3. Apneustic center
4. Pneumotaxic center.
7. PONTINE CENTERS
3. Apneustic Center
Situation
• Apneustic center is situated in the reticular
formation of lower pons.
Function
• Apneustic center increases depth of
inspiration by acting directly on dorsal group
neurons.
8. 4. Pneumotaxic Center
Situation
• Pneumotaxic center is situated in the dorsolateral part
• of reticular formation in upper pons. It is formed by
• neurons of medial parabrachial and subparabrachial
• nuclei. Subparabrachial nucleus is also called ventral
• parabrachial or Kölliker-Fuse nucleus.
9. Function
• Primary function of pneumotaxic center is to
control the medullary respiratory centers,
particularly the dorsal group neurons. It acts
through apneustic center.
• Pneumotaxic center inhibits the apneustic center
so that the dorsal group neurons are inhibited.
Because of this, inspiration stops and expiration
starts.
• Thus, pneumotaxic center influences the
switching between inspiration and expiration.
• Pneumotaxic center increases respiratory rate by
• reducing the duration of inspiration.
10. CHEMICAL MECHANISM
• Chemical mechanism of regulation of
respiration is operated through the
chemoreceptors.
• Chemoreceptors are the sensory nerve
endings, which give response to changes in
chemical constituents of blood.
11. Changes in Chemical Constituents of Blood
which Stimulate Chemoreceptors
1. Hypoxia (decreased pO2)
2. Hypercapnea (increased pCO2)
3. Increased hydrogen ion concentration.
12. CENTRAL CHEMORECEPTORS
• Central chemoreceptors are the chemoreceptors
• present in the brain.
Situation
• Central chemoreceptors are situated in deeper
part of medulla oblongata, close to the dorsal
respiratory group of neurons. This area is known
as chemosensitive area and the neurons are
called chemoreceptors.
• Chemo receptors are in close contact with blood
and cerebrospinal fluid.
13.
14. Mechanism of Action
• Central chemoreceptors are connected with
respiratory centers, particularly the dorsal
respiratory group of neurons through
synapses. These chemoreceptors act slowly
but effectively. Central chemoreceptors are
responsible for 70% to 80% of increased
ventilation through chemical regulatory
mechanism.
15. • Main stimulant for central chemoreceptors is
the increased hydrogen ion concentration.
However, if hydrogen ion concentration
increases in the blood, it cannot stimulate the
central chemoreceptors because, the
hydrogen ions from blood cannot cross the
bloodbrain barrier and blood-cerebrospinal
fluid barrier.
16. • On the other hand, if carbon dioxide increases
in the blood, it can easily cross the blood-brain
barrier and bloodcerebrospinal fluid barrier
and enter the interstitial fluid of brain or the
cerebrospinal fluid. There, the carbon dioxide
combines with water to form carbonic acid.
Since carbonic acid is unstable, it immediately
dissociates into hydrogen ion and bicarbonate
ion
CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 → H+ + HCO3 –
17. • Hydrogen ions stimulate the central
chemoreceptors. From chemoreceptors, the
excitatory impulses are sent to dorsal respiratory
group of neurons, resulting in increased
ventilation (increased rate and force of
breathing).
• Because of this, excess carbon dioxide is washed
out and respiration is brought back to normal.
Lack of oxygen does not have significant effect on
the central chemoreceptors, except that it
generally depresses the overall function of brain.
18. PERIPHERAL CHEMORECEPTORS
• Peripheral chemoreceptors are the
chemoreceptors present in carotid and aortic
region.
Mechanism of Action
• Hypoxia is the most potent stimulant for
peripheral chemoreceptors. It is because of
the presence of oxygen sensitive potassium
channels in the glomus ncells of peripheral
chemoreceptors.
19. • Hypoxia causes closure of oxygen sensitive
potassium channels and prevents potassium
efflux. This leads to depolarization of glomus
cells (receptor potential) and generation of
action potentials in nerve ending.
• These impulses pass through aortic and
Hering nerves and excite the dorsal group of
neurons. Dorsal group of neurons in turn,
send excitatory impulses to respiratory
muscles, resulting in increased ventilation.
This provides enough oxygen and rectifies the
lack of oxygen.
20. • In addition to hypoxia, peripheral
chemoreceptors are also stimulated by
hypercapnea and increased hydrogen ion
concentration. However, the sensitivity of
peripheral chemoreceptors to hypercapnea
and increased hydrogen ion concentration is
mild.
