Comparison between Gel Pad Cooling Device and Water Blanket during Target Temperature Management in Cardiac Arrest Patients [PDF]
Acute and Critical Care, 2018 Background: Target temperature management (TTM) improves neurological outcomes for comatose survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. We compared the efficacy and safety of a gel pad cooling device (GP) and a water blanket (WB) during TTM. Methods: We

Protection of the brain against heat damage
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014 In homeothermic animals, metabolic heat production in the brain is higher than in other tissues. However, cerebral tissue is susceptible to heat. Several animals have mechanisms that selectively cool the brain during hyperthermia (i.e., selective brain ...

Engineering Proceedings, 2023 Many common thermographic cameras have quite good sensitivity (0.05 °C or better) but limited accuracy, often about ±2 °C. This is not sufficient for quantitative measurements such as human body temperature diagnostics, where an accuracy of 0.3 °C is ...

Estrogenic modulation of female thermoregulatory behavior in a cold environment
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2016 Thermoregulation is categorized as either autonomic (i.e., sweating, shivering) or behavioral (i.e., wearing clothes, usage of air conditioner) thermoregulation. Compared to autonomic thermoregulation, the neural pathway of behavioral thermoregulation in

Robust Finite-Temperature Many-Body Scarring on a Quantum Computer [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A 110, 042606 (2024), 2023 Mechanisms for suppressing thermalization in disorder-free many-body systems, such as Hilbert space fragmentation and quantum many-body scars, have recently attracted much interest in foundations of quantum statistical physics and potential quantum information processing applications.

Use of temperature changes and pro-inflammatory biomarkers to diagnose bacterial infections in patients with severe cerebral trauma [PDF]
Journal of Neurocritical Care, 2022 Background In patients undergoing neurosurgeries, inflammation and infection are strongly related; however, inflammation can be present without infection.

Where are the Extrasolar Mercuries? [PDF]
ApJ 901 10 (2020), 2020 We utilize observations of 16 white dwarf stars to calculate and analyze the oxidation states of the parent bodies accreting onto the stars. Oxygen fugacity, a measure of overall oxidation state for rocks, is as important as pressure and temperature in determining the structure of a planet.

Three- and Four-body correlations in nuclear matter [PDF]
Few Body Syst. 31 (2002) 151-157, 2001 Few-nucleon correlations in nuclear matter at finite densities and temperatures are explored. Using the Dyson equation approach leads to effective few-body equations that include self energy corrections and Pauli blocking factors in a systematic way. Examples given are the nucleon deuteron in-medium reaction rates, few-body bound states including the $\

Direct and sequential four-body recombination rates at low temperatures [PDF]
Phys. Rev. C 103, 055813 (2021), 2021 We investigate four-body nuclear reactions in stellar environments contributing to creation of light nuclei, exemplified by $^9$Be and $^{12}$C. The originally assumed process is radiative capture, where nuclear clusters combine into the excited final nucleus and photon emission populates the stable nuclear ground states.

The stability of the relativistic three-body system and in-medium equations [PDF]
Few Body Syst. 34 (2004) 119-125, 2004 We present a relativistic three-body equation to study the stability of the isolated three-body system and the correlations in a medium of finite temperatures and densities. Relativity is implemented utilizing the light front form. Using a zero-range force we find the relativistic analog of the Thomas collapse and investigate the possibility that the ...
