lungs of the asthma patient (s) have non to little
destructive emphysema i.e. there is no irreversible
damaged irrespective of acuity and chronicity. While
our previous reports were limited to only observations
about ease in expiration, we subsequently noted that,
the inspiration inducing atmospheric thrust factor had
a very wide range. This finding is consistent with
the known position of science, that, even at elevated
altitudes, the lungs inspirate at optimum volumes at
rest or when alpine\supine. It is only under physical
stress, gross deviation occur, and that too perceptibly
in the non-acclimatised and in the non native (non
mountain tribes). So, cyclones, prima-facie appears
not to effect adversely the lung’s inhalation capacity.
What happens is due to increased volumes of expiration,
complementary volumes are inhaled. Higher inspiration
means greater oxygenation of blood, more number of
alveolis operating at optimum osmotic thrust. Smooth
and synchronised function also effects the cardiac
out put. All this results in “feel good factor”, that is
perceived by a chronic patient, and is interpreted as
‘
relief’. Asthma which most of the clinician know
as ‘pulmonary distress’ is in fact ‘pseudo’. It
registers as an aberration of the air-way bio-mechanics
having a deep seated bio-chemistry. Our finding is that,
atmospheric low, which too is a aberration in the
atmospheric general pattern, aids and abets
expiration volumes and down-regulates respiratory
organ related aberration superficially via a
bio-mechanical route.
Pulmonary C-fiber receptors have a greater mechan-
osensitivity (Humbert et al., 2009) and whereas the
bronchial C-fiber receptors have a higher
chemosensitivity, with a variable conduction velocity
ranging between 7~12 m/sec/sec (Hansen et al., 1982),
has reported, that, asthma, induces anoxia (deficient
O

supply to brain), which adversely effects ion
distribution in the brain cortex, resultant bio-electrical
activity and rapid onset of morbidity, which at time is
irreversible and is always associated with cerebral
damage, and no damage to cardio-thoracic-pulmonary
systems. The underlying bio-chemical, psychosomatic
etiology and the cascade remains. It may also be
(
getting) stoked. Asthma, is a cascade. In unstable
asthma and COPD cases the cascade invariably goes
askew. In this regard, we have noted, that, blood
pressure show no generalized pattern of change. There
is gross variation from case to case, even when
segregated on age, weight or any combination thereof.
Hence asthma posited as a response pathology, which
for us was a lesson cum direction finder. A refractile
blood pressure suggests the involvement of the cardio
system. In relation to severe weather events, we
therefore had to discuss heart input-output kinematics
in the next chapter. It helps in appreciating this
paradox (Bhatt-acharya, 2006).
Figure 4 is a schematic diagram drawn out of
sustained observations. OY represents expiration
volume. OX represents reducing atmospheric pressure.
OC represents unaided lung’s expiration, at rest. AB
represents fall in barometric pressure. The architecture
created by the 2 intersecting curves, suggests
homology with the established and well accepted
graphic architecture of peak expiration volume (s)
under medically aided condition. It also suggests a
shift towards the ‘X’, which is the reducing
barometric factor. Barometric ‘Low’, then positions
itself as the aid.

Asthma the problem of the airways is primarily
caused by constriction of the bronchial lumen
(
Goodman et al., 2001). Persey it is not a disease but
is a mechanical aberration in normal function. It is a
constituent of a broader group of maladies termed as
chronic pulmonary obstructive disorders-COPD. The
eastern shore board of India is frequented by TSCS. In
2006, 16
depressions had crossed into the Indian
peninsula, of which 14had transgressed across
Odisha’s shore line. Hence Odisha-north Andhra
regions i.e. our focus domain is ideal for observation
cum evidence based studies relating to thrust\pressure
related health issues, non-voluntary muscles and
meteorology. Here Figure 5 is graphical representation
