Computerised decision support for differential lung ventilation

Healthcare Technology Letters, 2019
Differential lung ventilation treatment is a mechanical ventilation strategy used for unilateral lung disease or injury. This treatment can be provided to patients who fail to respond to conventional mechanical ventilation to both lungs and is ...

Growth of Single-Crystal Cd_0.9Zn_0.1Te Ingots Using Pressure Controlled Bridgman Method

Crystals, 2020
We report growth of single-crystal Cd0.9Zn0.1Te ingots while using the pressure-controlled Bridgman method. The Cd pressure was controlled during growth to suppress its evaporation from the melt and reduce the size of Te inclusions in the as-grown ...

Blood Pressure Control and Exaggerated Blood Pressure Response in Nigerians with Essential Hypertension

, 2014
Background Blood pressure (BP) control in hypertensives is important in preventing cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. This work was done to assess control of BP among Nigerian hypertensives at rest and during exercise.

An Improved Optimal Slip Ratio Prediction considering Tyre Inflation Pressure Changes [PDF]

, 2015
The prediction of optimal slip ratio is crucial to vehicle control systems. Many studies have verified there is a definitive impact of tyre pressure change on the optimal slip ratio.

Prognosis of Long‐Term Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and the Impact of Combined Continuous Intravenous Sodium Infusion Therapy

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Experimental verification of externally pressurized gas journal bearings with asymmetric gas supply (Supply gas pressure control operation using a small size test rig)

Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2014
Externally pressurized gas journal bearings with an asymmetric gas supply mechanism have been developed by one of the authors. This bearing has a large load capacity compared with conventional symmetric gas supply bearings because low and high ...

Community based trial of home blood pressure monitoring with nurse-led telephone support in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack recently discharged from hospital.

, 2008
BACKGROUND: High blood pressure in patients with stroke increases the risk of recurrence but management in the community is often inadequate. Home blood pressure monitoring may increase patients' involvement in their care, increase compliance, and reduce

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Involvement of endothelium-derived relaxing factor in the pressure control of renin secretion from isolated perfused kidney

, 1993
Using isolated rat kidneys perfused at controlled pressure, we examined a potential role of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) in the pressure control of renin secretion.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
