    According to a 2010 study by Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health, symptoms of anxiety and depression were more common among students in GCE Advanced Level classes compared to other grades. Students in Grade 13 had the second-highest depression and anxiety scores, with examination-related issues being the most commonly cited problem.

  3. Control of ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_ventilation

    The control of ventilation is the physiological mechanisms involved in the control of breathing, which is the movement of air into and out of the lungs. Ventilation facilitates respiration. Respiration refers to the utilization of oxygen and balancing of carbon dioxide by the body as a whole, or by individual cells in cellular respiration. [1]

  4. Ventilatory threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilatory_threshold

    As the intensity level of the activity being performed increases, breathing becomes faster; more steadily first and then more rapid as the intensity increases. When breathing surpasses normal ventilation rate, one has reached ventilatory threshold. For most people this threshold lies at exercise intensities between 50% and 75% of VO 2 max. A ...

  7. Ventilation–perfusion coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilation–perfusion...

    Ventilation–perfusion coupling is the relationship between ventilation and perfusion in the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. [1] Ventilation is the movement of air in and out of the lungs during breathing. [2] Perfusion is the process of pulmonary blood circulation, which reoxygenates blood, allowing it to transport oxygen to body tissues.

  8. Respiration (physiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiration_(physiology)

    Exchange of gases in the lung occurs by ventilation and perfusion. [1] Ventilation refers to the in-and-out movement of air of the lungs and perfusion is the circulation of blood in the pulmonary capillaries. [1] In mammals, physiological respiration involves respiratory cycles of inhaled and exhaled breaths.

  9. Artificial ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_ventilation

    Artificial ventilation or respiration is when a machine assists in a metabolic process to exchange gases in the body by pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, and internal respiration. [1] A machine called a ventilator provides the person air manually by moving air in and out of the lungs when an individual is unable to breathe on their own.
