The Year 2024, Nigeria's Physiology Family and the Plethora of Exits
Abstract:
The Physiological Society of Nigeria mourns the loss, in the first half of the year 2024, of five distinguished members who left indelible marks and footprints in the sand of time. The contributions of Professors Chikodi Anigbogu (23 December 1953 - 2 January 2024); David Oyebola (1 October 1945-13 February 2024); Anthony Ebeigbe (22 August 1950 - 30 May 2024); Vincent Iyawe (14 April 1953 - 8 June 2024) and Olusoga Solofa (24 January 1947 - 10 June 2024) to the establishment and growth of the Physiological Society of Nigeria are well appreciated.

Oxygen
Atmospheric air is only about 20 percent oxygen, but that oxygen is a key component of the chemical reactions that keep the body alive, including the reactions that produce ATP. Brain cells are susceptible to a lack of oxygen because they require a...
Physiological Barriers
The blood endothelial barrier is the most porous of these. It allows all small ionized, un-ionized, and lipophilic molecules to pass through the endothelial lining into the interstitial space...
Liver Physiology
Metabolic Regulation:
The liver is the central organ involved in regulating blood composition. It stabilizes blood glucose levels, maintaining them within the range of 70–110 mg/dL. When these levels drop, the liver breaks down glycogen reserves and releases glucose into the bloodstream. It can also...
Clearance Models: Physiological Models
The organ's clearance rate depends on the blood flow to the organ and the extraction ratio (E). The extraction ratio describes the organ's proficiency in drug...
