Using an Audience Response System Smartphone App to Improve Resident Education in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. [PDF]

, 2018
In the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), most teaching occurs during bedside rounds, but technology now provides new opportunities to enhance education. Specifically, smartphone apps allow rapid communication between instructor and student.

Semiconducting Polymer Nanoparticles Enable Light‐Controlled Bidirectional Modulation of Nitric Oxide in Endothelial Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bimodal modulation of nitric oxide in endothelial cells is achieved by light‐sensitive polymer nanoparticles. In dark, P3HT/PEDOT:PSS NPs boost intracellular ·NO, upregulate both endothelial and induced nitric oxide synthase, and drive a metabolic shift toward glycolysis.

Hypoxic training increases maximal oxygen consumption in Thoroughbred horses well-trained in normoxia. [PDF]

, 2017
Hypoxic training is effective for improving athletic performance in humans. It increases maximal oxygen consumption (V̇O2max) more than normoxic training in untrained horses. However, the effects of hypoxic training on well-trained horses are unclear. We

Mechanically Robust Biodegradable Stents With Theragenerative Vascular Responses via Combined 3D Printing and Janus Nanoengineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a theragenerative 3D‐printed biodegradable stent with Janus nanoarchitecture for spatially controlled vascular healing. A luminal tantalum ion–implanted surface accelerates endothelialization and hemocompatibility, while an abluminal sirolimus/poly‐L‐lactic acid–tantalum layer provides sustained drug release and suppresses smooth ...

The Agreement Between Pulse Oximetry and Measured Arterial Oxygen Saturations in Postoperative Functionally Univentricular Patients

Children
Background: Pulse oximetry is widely used to estimate arterial oxygen saturation, yet accuracy may vary for a number of reasons. Data on children with functionally univentricular circulation are limited.

Arterial Blood Gas Tensions and pH [PDF]

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1980
1 The definition of PO2 and its relationship to the oxygen saturation (SO2) by the oxygen dissociation curve (ODC) is described with details of the ligands of the ODC and the effects of haemoglobinopathies on P50 (the position of the ODC) and the slope of the ODC (Hill's 'n').

Smart Nanotechnologies for Multimodal Neuromodulation and Brain Interfacing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Recent advances in smart nanotechnologies are expanding the toolbox for brain interfacing, from wireless neuromodulation and high‐resolution sensing to targeted delivery within the central nervous system. By combining responsive nanomaterials with bioinspired design, these platforms enable multimodal interactions with neurons and glia, while also ...

Beyond labels: determining the true type of blood gas samples in ICU patients through supervised machine learning

BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making
Background In the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), data stored in patient data management systems (PDMS) is commonly used in clinical practice and research. Parameters from point-of-care arterial blood gas (BG) analysis are used in the diagnosis and definition

Sono‐Mechanogenetics: Linking Ultrasound Physics With Cellular Mechanobiology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sono‐mechanogenetics links ultrasound physics with cellular mechanotransduction to enable noninvasive control of engineered biological systems. Acoustic forces generate distinct deformation modes that activate intracellular signaling pathways, which can be coupled to synthetic gene circuits to regulate diverse cellular functions, including gene ...

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.
