The idea of passive euthanasia has recently been attacked in a particularly clear and explicit way by an “Ethics Task Force” established by the European Association of Palliative Care (EAPC) in February 2001. It claims that the expression “passive euthanasia” is a contradiction in terms and hence that there can be no such thing.

Study on Performance of Mesoscopic Impactor Filters for Aerosol Removal
The mesoscopic impactor filter is designed to filtrate aerosols in the containment, which has not only high collection efficiency but also small flow resistance. In this paper, the influence of structural parameters and working parameters of the inertial

ABSTRACT Primary lung carcinomas and bronchial carcinoid tumors (BC) are very rare malignancies in childhood. While typical BC and mucoepidermoid carcinomas are mostly low‐grade, localized tumors with a more favorable prognosis than in adults, necessitating avoidance of overtreatment, adenocarcinomas of the lung are often diagnosed at advanced disease ...
