Sheep Wool Humidity under Electron Irradiation Affects Wool Sorptivity towards Co(II) Ions

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The effect of humidity on sheep wool during irradiation by an accelerated electron beam was examined. Each of the samples with 10%, 53%, and 97% relative humidity (RH) absorbed a dose of 0, 109, and 257 kGy, respectively.

Ventilator- and interface-related factors influencing patient-ventilator asynchrony during noninvasive ventilation

open access: yesAnnals of Thoracic Medicine, 2020
Patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA) is common in patients receiving noninvasive ventilation (NIV). This occurs primarily when the triggering and cycling-off of ventilatory assistance are not synchronized with the patient's inspiratory efforts and could ...
