Anatomic connections of the diaphragm: influence of respiration on the body system
Open accessAbstract
The article explains the scientific reasons for the diaphragm muscle being an important crossroads for information involving the entire body. The diaphragm muscle extends from the trigeminal system to the pelvic floor, passing from the thoracic diaphragm to the floor of the mouth. Like many structures in the human body, the diaphragm muscle has more than one function, and has links throughout the body, and provides the network necessary for breathing. To assess and treat this muscle effectively, it is necessary to be aware of its anatomic, fascial, and neurologic complexity in the control of breathing. The patient is never a symptom localized, but a system that adapts to a corporeal dysfunction.

Diaphragmatic breathing augments venous return due to the diaphragm being connected to and supporting the heart and providing passage for the aorta and inferior vena cava.
“This is further augmented in diaphragmatic breathing due to the anatomical fact that the diaphragm is connected to and supports the heart, and provides passage for the aorta and the inferior vena cava [31].”
From The physiological effects of slow breathing in the healthy human (2017) · cites this paper as [31]
The Anatomy and anatomic connections section describes a ligament connecting the diaphragm to the heart and passages for the aorta and vena cava. The Vascular and lymphatic connections section says slow, deep respiration enhances venous drainage, but attributes this to pressure changes during inhalation, not to those anatomical connections. It also describes the ligament as supporting the diaphragm, rather than the heart. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
