Heat‐Not‐Burn Tobacco Aerosols Induce Immune Dysregulation and Barrier Disruption Comparable to Conventional Cigarettes

Allergy, EarlyView.
Comparative analysis between cigarette smokers and HnB users revealed similar inflammatory lung function parameters and immunophenotypic patterns. Cigarette smoke and HnB aerosol had an impact on ECM through divergent downstream pathways. Exposed to Cigarette smoke and HnB aerosol caused comparative TJ weakening in the epithelial barrier.

Developments in nitrous oxide capture technologies: bridging current research to clinical applications

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Many inhaled anaesthetic agents are greenhouse gases. Capture technologies have been developed to prevent environmental emissions of volatile agents, but no such devices exist for nitrous oxide. Further to this, the unique societal position of the use of nitrous oxide for patients in labour means it cannot readily be substituted ...
