 Alveolar Distraction Osteogenesis
The alveolar distraction device has been developed for reconstruction of alveolar process deformities using the distraction osteogenesis process.
The implantable components of the alveolar distraction device consists components that allow for expansion after being secured to the bone.
A mechanical device, the alveolar distraction device, is used to provide gradual, controlled transport of a mobilized alveolar segment, Fig 2.

 American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine: Alveolar Epithelial [beta]^sub 2^-Adrenergic Receptors: ...
Substantial subsequent data have generated a widely accepted paradigm in which excess alveolar fluid transits from the alveolar airspace along an osmotic gradient created by the active extrusion of Na+ from the airspace into the interstitium.
Herein, we provide a summary of the mechanisms by which the lung clears excess fluid from the alveolar airspace and an overview of the structure and function of the β^sub 2^-receptor.
This understanding provides rationale for development of tools and pharmacologic approaches to restore function of these transport proteins in the injured lung.

 Chapter 4: PCO2 and Alveolar Ventilation (Part 1)
Air that reaches the alveoli, but for one reason or other does not take part in gas exchange, is not considered part of VA (for example, air that goes to an unperfused alveolus).
Without alveolar ventilation, carbon dioxide will build up in the blood since there is no other way to eliminate it; as a result, severe acidity and death will quickly follow.
Clinically, the terms hyperventilation and hypoventilation apply to alveolar ventilation only (see below).

 CHEST: Increased levels of cell death and proliferation in alveolar wall cells in patients with pulmonary emphysema - ...
This study was designed to examine whether the turnover of alveolar wall cells is altered in patients with emphysema.
For example, one study showed that in the lungs of patients with emphysema, the level of apoptosis in alveolar wall cells is increased.
The prevailing hypothesis since the 1960s for the pathogenesis of pulmonary emphysema has been the elastase/antielastase imbalance theory.

This page contains phonetic information in IPA, which may not display correctly in some browsers.
The bare letters [s, t, n, l] etc may be assumed to be alveolar, but may also indicate that the language does not make such distinctions, and that two or more places are found allophonically.

 APStracts 6:0318A, 1999.
In summary, KGF induced a sustained increase over 120 h in the fluid transport capacity of the alveolar epithelium.
However, more rapid alveolar liquid clearance at 120 h compared to 48 h after KGF treatment may be explained by greater maturation of (ENaC, since expression of (ENaC was greater at 120 h than at 48 h, while the number of type II cells was the same at these two time points.
This impressive upregulation in fluid transport could be further enhanced with beta-adrenergic agonist therapy, thus providing evidence that two different treatments can simultaneously increase the fluid transport capacity of the alveolar epithelium.

 Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis
In some cases, the cause of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is unknown.
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a disease in which a phospholipid (a compound widely distributed in living cells) accumulates within spaces in the lungs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged.
In others, it is associated with infection or immune deficiency.

 Articles - Alveolar flap
The airstream mechanism is pulmonic egressive, which means it is articulated by pushing air out of the lungs and through the vocal tract, rather than from the glottis or the mouth.
The alveolar tap is the single orthographic 'r' in the middle of Spanish words, as in pero ("but"), but not in perro ("dog"), where it is an alveolar trill.
Its manner of articulation is tap or flap, which means it is produced with a single contraction of the muscles so that one articulator briefly strikes the other.
