Mobile automatic metabolic analyzer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Two flexible pipes, attached to face mask, are connected to spirometers in mobile cart. Inhaled air volume is measured as it is drawn from one spirometer, and exhaled air volume is measured as it is breathed into second spirometer.

Appetitive responses toward smoking‐related stimuli in abstinence‐motivated, non‐deprived individuals with chronic tobacco dependence: A multi‐methodological investigation

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Appetitive responses, such as approach biases, are thought to play a crucial role in smoking. This study aimed to compare responses toward smoking‐related stimuli with responses in control conditions (e.g. non‐approach or neutral stimuli) using a multi‐method approach. By examining associations between response measures and

Experimental study on gas permeability and radon control performance of red clay covering layer on uranium mill tailings pond

open access: yesScientific Reports
The decommissioning of uranium mill tailings pond generally employs covering layer to diminish radon exhalation, with soil permeability, thickness, and moisture content being essential considerations in assessing the efficacy of radon reduction.

Verification of the applicability of the RAD7 radon monitor to the solid radon source exhalation reference model

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
The RAD7 radon monitor, based on the electrostatic collection method, is sensitive to humidity during measurements, necessitating the use of a desiccant to maintain the relative humidity in its built-in chamber less than 10 %.

Titration of nicotine intake in smokers switching to reduced nicotine content cigarettes with access to alternative nicotine systems: Secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Mandated reduction of the nicotine content of cigarettes to reduce addictiveness to minimal levels has the potential to substantially reduce combusted cigarette use and promote public health. This paper examined the hypothesis that when people who smoke cigarettes are switched to very low nicotine content (VLNC) cigarettes ...

Three dimensional analysis of the exhalation flow in the proximity of the mouth

open access: yesHeliyon
The human exhalation flow is characterized in this work from the three-dimensional velocimetry results obtained by using the stereo particle image velocimetry (SPIV) measurement technique on the flow emitted from a realistic airway model.

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Decarbonising Respiratory Care: The Impact of a Low‐Carbon Salbutamol Pressurised Metered‐Dose Inhalers

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Healthcare systems contribute up to 5% of global GHG emissions, with inhalers contributing a proportion of these. The carbon footprint of current salbutamol inhalers (pMDI with HFA‐134a propellant and DPI) and a planned salbutamol pMDI with low‐GWP propellant HFA‐152a was quantified across seven countries.
