Time-averaged single sided ventilation rates and thermal environment in cooling mode for a low energy retrofit envelope [PDF]
Non-invasive, scalable, building retrofit solutions are very attractive deep renovation techniques to improve energy efficiency in existing buildings; this includes natural ventilation for cooling due to the low impact nature of the installation. However,

This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Pressure Support Ventilation Revisited [PDF]
Accessible online at: www.karger.com/journals/res Pressure support ventilation (PSV) reduces the work of breathing in patients with intrinsic lung disease. When such patients fail and require intubation, PSV facilitates the weaning process, thereby promoting extubation [1, 2]. By contrast, the role for PSV in the management of patients with respiratory

Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibition with simvastatin in acute lung injury to reduce pulmonary dysfunction (HARP-2) trial : study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common devastating clinical syndrome characterized by life-threatening respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation and multiple organ failure.

Morphology‐Controlled Silica Nanoparticle Coatings for Transparent Radiative Cooling
Transparent radiative cooling coatings are achieved by immobilizing solid and hollow silica spheres on glass. Particle morphology within sub‐monolayer coatings is shown to govern the trade‐off between visible and atmospheric window reflectance. Hollow‐sphere structures enable reduced thermal emission losses while preserving transparency, highlighting ...

New modalities for non-invasive positive pressure ventilation: A review article
Efficiency of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation in the treatment of respiratory failure has been shown in many published studies. In this review article, we introduced new modalities of non-invasive ventilation (NIV), clinical settings in which ...

Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation and Pressure Support: To Sync or Not to Sync? Pressure Support or No Pressure Support? [PDF]
Mechanical ventilation has changed dramatically over the past few years with the explosion of technology. Asynchronous breathing is extremely common in intubated newborn infants. Asynchronous breathing has been shown to be associated with short-term adverse effects such as delivery of inconsistent tidal volume and minute ventilation, hypercarbia ...

Review of hypoxaemia in the anaesthetized horse: predisposing factors, consequences and management [PDF]
Objectives: To discuss how hypoxaemia might be harmful and why the horse is particularly predisposed to developing it. To review the strategies that are used to manage hypoxaemia in anaesthetised horses, to describe how successful these strategies are

Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.
