Stomata can be distributed exclusively on the abaxial or adaxial leaf surface, but they are most commonly found on both leaf surfaces. Variations in stomatal arrangement, patterning, and the impact on photosynthesis can be measured using an infrared gas exchange system. However, when using standard gas exchange techniques, both surfaces are measured together and averaged to provide leaf-level values. Employing an innovative gas exchange apparatus with two infrared gas analyzers, separate gaseous flux from both leaf surfaces can be quantified simultaneously and independently. Here, we provide examples of typical measurements that can be performed using a "split chamber" gas exchange system.

Drought has a major impact on crop yields. Silicon (Si) application has been proposed to improve drought resilience via several mechanisms including modifying the level of stomatal gas exchange. However, the impact of Si on transpiration and stomatal conductance varies between studies.

Traditional studies of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) have focused on alveolar epithelial cells injury and abnormal myofibroblast aggregation, but recent studies have revealed that imbalances in pulmonary capillary homeostasis also play pivotal roles in this disease. The pulmonary microvasculature, composed of aerocyte capillary (aCap) and general capillary (gCap) endothelial cells, forms the core structure of the alveolar-capillary membrane. It performs key roles in gas exchange and nutrient/metabolite transport, while modulating the trafficking of inflammatory factors and immune cells and regulating alveolar damage repair.

Background: Stroke is a common acute cerebrovascular disease, and rehabilitation therapy plays a crucial role in the recovery of stroke patients.
Methods: In this retrospective study, we first enrolled 80 stroke patients. These participants were then randomly divided into two groups: the treatment group underwent finger acupressure combined with lower limb rehabilitation training machine, and the control group received basic rehabilitation therapy.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a common surgical approach for advanced coronary artery disease unresponsive to conservative or percutaneous treatments. Despite its benefits in symptom relief and long-term outcomes, CABG is associated with notable postoperative respiratory complications. As such, respiratory physiotherapy plays a crucial role in recovery.

Objectives: Acute lung injury (ALI) is an acute respiratory failure syndrome characterized by impaired gas exchange. Due to the lack of effective targeted drugs, it is associated with high mortality and poor prognosis. (TW) has demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity in the treatment of various diseases.
