Heliox allows for lower minute volume ventilation in an animal model of ventilator-induced lung injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Helium is a noble gas with a low density, allowing for lower driving pressures and increased carbon dioxide (CO2) diffusion. Since application of protective ventilation can be limited by the development of hypoxemia or acidosis, we ...

Guideline on management of the acute asthma attack in children by Italian Society of Pediatrics. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute asthma attack is a frequent condition in children. It is one of the most common reasons for emergency department (ED) visit and hospitalization. Appropriate care is fundamental, considering both the high prevalence of asthma in children,

Abstract Introduction This study aimed to determine if a respiratory therapist (RT)‐driven high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) protocol could decrease duration of HFNC use, pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and hospital length of stay (LOS), and duration of continuous albuterol use in pediatric patients with critical asthma.

Abstract Background Speech and language therapists (SLTs) provide interventions for inducible laryngeal obstruction (ILO) despite a current lack of evidence to inform intervention delivery. This study is the first step to develop an evidence‐based intervention for ILO, using behaviour change theory and the Behaviour Change Technique Taxonomy version 1 (

Plasma from Volunteers Breathing Helium Reduces Hypoxia-Induced Cell Damage in Human Endothelial Cells-Mechanisms of Remote Protection Against Hypoxia by Helium. [PDF]
PurposeRemote ischemic preconditioning protects peripheral organs against prolonged ischemia/reperfusion injury via circulating protective factors. Preconditioning with helium protected healthy volunteers against postischemic endothelial dysfunction.

Owing to its large bandwidth, we identify layered semiconducting antiferromagnet CrPS4 as an ideal candidate to realize field‐effect transistors based on 2D magnetic materials. Low‐temperature measurements exhibit a gate‐tunable magnetoconductance exceeding 5000%, as well as the ability to continuously tune electrostatically the boundaries between ...
