A midsummer night’s screen

Weather, EarlyView.
The frequency of summer nights whose minimum temperature remains above a rarely exceeded threshold – such as the ‘Tropical Night’ 20°C requirement – provides one measure of climate warming. Unfortunately, relying on nocturnal temperature minima for this may select conditions when naturally ventilated thermometers, such as those housed within Stevenson ...

Epiglottis Collapse in Individuals With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated upper airway collapse during sleep. The epiglottis, often overlooked in conventional assessments, has emerged as a site of significant obstruction in OSA.

Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

Churchill and Germany: A ‘Special’ Relationship

History, EarlyView.
Abstract No other country defined the trajectory of Churchill's political career more than Germany, a country of which he had little direct knowledge but which he either sought to emulate, accommodate or oppose throughout his time in politics. This article traces Churchill's relationship with Germany from his entry into politics at the beginning of the

AutoChamber: A broadly accessible 3D‐printed floating chamber to automate measurements of greenhouse gas emissions from surface waters

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Fresh waters provide environmental conditions that favour microbial CO2 and CH4 production, leading to the release of large quantities of greenhouse gases (GHG) to the atmosphere. Despite their importance, these fluxes remain poorly defined, weakening estimates of global GHG budgets that are critical in implementing effective climate ...

Wildfires and Atopic Diseases: A Review

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfire smoke is a major environmental health threat that has increased in frequency and severity in recent years. A hazardous component of wildfire smoke is particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5). There is evidence to suggest that exposure to wildfire PM2.5 may increase the risk of developing or exacerbating atopic diseases, such as asthma ...

Machine Learning‐Based Prediction of Life‐Threatening Complications During Hemodialysis in Hospitalized Patients With Poor General Conditions

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
A machine learning model using predialysis data predicted sudden events during or after hemodialysis with high accuracy (auROC: 0.889). The key predictors included emergency hospitalization, recent surgery, high heart rate, low albumin levels, and high CRP.
