The structures of the upper respiratory system warm and clean the air by trapping particles and pollutants before they travel into the lungs.
vocalizationSummary This work reviews the anatomy of the upper respiratory tract in domestic birds including the chicken and pigeon. Non-exhaustive additional information on other bird species, illustrating the extraordinary diversity in the biological class Aves , can be found in several footnotes. The...
Background: The upper respiratory mucosa plays a crucial role in both the physical integrity and immunological function of the respiratory tract. However, in certain situations such as infections, trauma, or surgery, it might sustain damage. Tissue engineering, a field of regenerative medicine, has...

One consideration is anatomic—(i) the varying distances and the lack of perfect parallel alignment between the tongue and the soft palate and between each of the tongue and the soft palate and the lower jaw, due to individual upper respiratory anatomy and the natural movement of the tongue ...
The upper abdomen could be defined in two ways. Considering the anatomy of the peritoneal cavity and its spaces, the supracolic compartment could be regarded as the ‘upper abdomen’ [38]. The peritoneal cancer index devised by Paul Sugarbaker divides the abdominal cavity into 13 anatomical regi...

HPV presence in oropharyngeal papillomas has not been systematically studied, and the limited data discussed here are extracted from a few recent studies on SCPs with a focus on several sites of the respiratory tract. As already discussed, Dona et al. (2017) studied 83 papillomas, of which ...
