ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Children are sometimes transported via fixed or rotary wing aircraft for medical care. If they are intubated with a cuffed endotracheal tube (ETT), changes in environmental pressure during transport can alter cuff pressure. Cuff management in this setting varies widely by region and by organization. In this historical

The Effect of Age Introduced to Virtual Reality on Susceptibility to Motion Sickness [PDF]
Every human with a functioning vestibular system is capable of feeling motion sickness, but some are more vulnerable than others. Based on the leading theories explaining this condition, vulnerability should be predicted by a person's years of real-life experience before using a VR device and years of VR experience after. A questionnaire was filled out

Empirical models for use in designing decompression procedures for space operations [PDF]
Empirical models for predicting the incidence of Type 1 altitude decompression sickness (DCS) and venous gas emboli (VGE) during space extravehicular activity (EVA), and for use in designing safe denitrogenation decompression procedures are developed ...

Our paper underscores the contributions of key compounds, such as beta‐carotene, polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamins, in suppressing pro‐inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF‐α, IL‐6) and regulating critical inflammatory pathways, such as NF‐κB. The synergistic properties of papaya and carrot root extracts, alongside their potential applications in ...
