Large-eddy simulations to define building-specific similarity relationships for natural ventilation flow rates

open access: yesFlow, 2023
Natural ventilation can play an important role towards preventing the spread of airborne infections in indoor environments. However, quantifying natural ventilation flow rates is a challenging task due to significant variability in the boundary ...

Fundamentals of Natural Ventilation in Buildings [PDF]

open access: yesIgra Ustvarjalnosti, 2020
When environmental factors, such as the microclimate, in-depth knowledge is important in understanding spatial issues related to health. We spend most of the day indoors, so ventilation conditions are especially important, given their impact on our well ...

The natural ventilation of unheated ‘closed rooms’ [PDF]

open access: yesEpidemiology and Infection, 1946
The experimental method for, and analysis of, more than 300 determinations of air influx rates into two unheated ‘closed rooms’ of opposite aspects each fitted (a) with wall grating, or (b) with flue, are described. The average relative efficacy for all observed wind velocities of (a) of 50 sq.in.

Natural ventilation for the prevention of airborne contagion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Institutional transmission of airborne infections such as tuberculosis (TB) is an important public health problem, especially in resource-limited settings where protective measures such as negative-pressure isolation rooms are difficult to ...

Evaluation of the potential of solar chimneys to drive natural ventilation in non domestic buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The solar chimney allows natural ventilation to be achieved during periods when the wind velocities are low and the difference between internal and external air temperatures is minimal.

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.

Evaluation of Digital Technologies for Home‐Based Assessment in People With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Digital technologies hold promise for transforming healthcare by enhancing personalized treatments and offer valuable opportunities to improve patient care. Here, we evaluated several novel, self‐administered, home‐based, digital endpoints for their association with corresponding conventional standard clinical measures (primary) in ...
