Oxygen metabolism and oxygenation of the newborn [PDF]
The premature infant is to some extent protected from hypoxia, however defense against hyperoxia is poorly developed. The optimal assessment of oxygenation is to measure oxygen delivery and extraction. At the bedside PaO2 and SpO2 are approximations of oxygenation at the tissue level.

The ‘oxygen’ in oxygen minimum zones
AbstractAerobic processes require oxygen, and anaerobic processes are typically hindered by it. In many places in the global ocean, oxygen is completely removed at mid‐water depths forming anoxic oxygen minimum zones (A‐OMZs). Within the oxygen gradients linking oxygenated waters with A‐OMZs, there is a transition from aerobic to anaerobic microbial ...

An oxygen-reducing biocathode with “oxygen tanks” [PDF]
Polytetrafluoroethylene submicro-rod, serving as “oxygen tanks” and binders, have been mixed into Os redox polymer-based bilirubin oxidase cathodes, leading to enhanced performance.

RONS and Oxidative Stress: An Overview of Basic Concepts
Oxidative stress (OS) has greatly interested the research community in understanding damaging processes occurring in cells. OS is triggered by an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and their elimination by the antioxidant system ...

May oxygen depletion explain the FLASH effect? A chemical track structure analysis [PDF]
Background and purpose: Recent observations in animal models show that ultra-high dose rate ("FLASH") radiation treatment significantly reduces normal tissue toxicity maintaining an equivalent tumor control. The dependence of this "FLASH" effect on target oxygenation has led to the assumption that oxygen "depletion" could be its major driving force ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction significantly contributes to the pathogenesis and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). To treat mitochondrial dysfunction in COPD, novel drug delivery systems (DDS) are needed.

Wheat-flour crackers represent a staple snack option, although they lack nutritional value. Agricultural by-products such as olive and grape seeds, cereals such as barley and legumes such as lupine and chickpea are rich in bioactive compounds; therefore,

Blood flow restriction (BFR) may become ineffective or potentially dangerous without sufficient standardization. The purpose of this investigation was therefore to (1) assess the viability of multiple sizes of a novel BFR cuff to determine arterial ...
