[HTML][HTML] Cardiovascular transition at birth: a physiological sequence
The transition to newborn life at birth involves major cardiovascular changes that are
triggered by lung aeration. These include a large increase in pulmonary blood flow (PBF) …

From liquid to air: breathing after birth
The first breaths after birth are characterized by a rapid transition from liquid-to air-filled
lungs. Air is drawn into the lung during inspiration, and some remains at end expiration to …

Respiratory transition in the newborn: a three-phase process
We propose that the respiratory transition at birth passes through three distinct, but
overlapping phases, which reflect different physiological states of the lung. Accordingly …
