During sleep, breathing entrains and coordinates neural activity across the limbic system, and enhances memory consolidation.
People with higher levels of anxiety have altered perceptions of their breathing compared to those with lower levels of anxiety. The altered perception of respiration can lead to an increase in feelings of anxiety, researchers report.
Yoga and breathing training programs can help children with ADHD to focus their attention, a new study reports.
Aerosolized coronavirus microdroplets remain in the air and pose a risk of exposure beyond the recommended 6-foot area for social distancing.
On average, women have to work harder to breathe during strenuous exercise than men. The findings not only shed light on how sex may affect exercise dynamics but also the differences in how men and women experience airway disorders, such as asthma and COPD.
Hugging a novel cushion that mechanically mimics breathing helps reduce anxiety.
Core neurons in the lateral parabrachial nucleus project to the amygdala, an area of the brain associated with fear and emotional processing of pain. Neurons in the shell project to the pre-Bötzinger complex, a region that generates breathing rhythm. Both core and shell neurons influence each other according to inputs from each area, increasing breathing rate when we are in pain or anxious.
Breathing difficulties associated with Pitt Hopkins syndrome, a rare form of autism, have been linked to a specific set of neurons in the brainstem.
Minimal arm movements that occur during sleep are better predictors of respiratory rate than ECG wrist monitors, a new study reports.
Researchers say that to date, primary transmission methods of concern for coronavirus have been near field transmission via sneezing and coughing, and hand-to-face transportation of the virus after touching infected surfaces. They warn more attention needs to be paid to the inhalation of aerosols generated from breathing and talking.
A small study of patients with severe COVID-19 symptoms in Wuhan found laying face down was better for the lungs.
