Symptomatic cats infected by Aelurostrongylus abstrusus show non-specific and respiratory clinical signs, often misdiagnosed as other diseases more prevalent among feline population, such as allergic respiratory disease or heartworm associated respiratory disease (HARD). Clinical signs are due to the pulmonary inflammatory response caused by the eggs shed by the adult females and the migration of the first-stage larvae up the bronchial tree. Barometric whole-body plethysmography (BWBP) is a non-invasive pulmonary function test that allows a dynamic study of breathing patterns by placing the patient within an unrestrained Plexiglas chamber. This is the first report that determines the degree of bronchoconstriction caused by A. abstrusus infection in a cat by using BWBP, showing an increase of baseline measurements of bronchoconstriction indexes (Enhanced pause and Pause) in response to severe bronchial reactivity, a consequence of the airway inflammation caused by the presence of A. abstrusus.

Whole Body Plethysmography

Breathing during the first postnatal hours has not been examined in mice, the preferred mammalian species for genetic studies. We used whole body plethysmography to measure ventilation (V˙e), breath duration (TTOT), and tidal volume (Vt) in mice delivered vaginally (VD) or by cesarean section (CS). In experiment 1, 101 VD and 100 CS pups aged 1, 6, 12, 24, or 48 h were exposed to 8% CO2 or 10% O2for 90 s. In experiment 2, 31 VD pups aged 1, 12, or 24 h were exposed to 10% O2 for 5 min. Baseline breathing maturation was delayed in CS pups, but V˙eresponses to hypercapnia and hypoxia were not significantly different between VD and CS pups [at postnatal age of 1 h (H1): 48 ± 44 and 18 ± 32%, respectively, in VD and CS pups combined]. TheV˙e increase induced by hypoxia was greater at H12 (46 ± 27%) because of TTOT response maturation. At all ages, hypoxic decline was ascribable mainly to a Vtdecrease, and posthypoxic decline was ascribable to a TTOTincrease with apneas, suggesting different underlying neuronal mechanisms.
