Diaphragm function and weaning from mechanical ventilation: an ultrasound and phrenic nerve stimulation clinical study

Annals of Intensive Care, 2018
Background Diaphragm dysfunction is defined by a value of twitch tracheal pressure in response to magnetic phrenic stimulation (twitch pressure) amounting to less than 11 cmH2O.

Rheology of sedimenting particle pastes [PDF]

, 2012
We study the local and global rheology of non-Brownian suspensions in a solvent that is not density-matched, leading to either creaming or sedimentation of the particles.

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

Application of bedside ultrasound in predicting the outcome of weaning from mechanical ventilation in elderly patients

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background With the increased ageing of society, more and more elderly people are admitted to the intensive care unit, How to accurately predict whether elderly patients can successfully wean from the ventilator is more complicated.

Changes in Diaphragmatic Function Induced by an Increased Inspiratory Load Experienced by Military Divers: An Ultrasound Study

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Background: Inspiratory loading is experienced by military divers when they use rebreather device. Our objective was to assess the changes in diaphragm function induced by an increase in inspiratory load at values similar to those experienced by divers ...

The effects of a hot gaseous halo on disc thickening in galaxy minor mergers

, 2011
We employ hydrodynamical simulations to study the effects of dissipational gas physics on the vertical heating and thickening of disc galaxies during minor mergers.

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

Discontinuous shear-thinning in adhesive dispersions

, 2018
We present simulations for the steady-shear rheology of a model adhesive dispersion. We vary the range of the attractive forces $u$ as well as the strength of the dissipation $b$.

Detection of circulating tumor DNA in colorectal cancer patients using a methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed a cost‐effective methylation‐specific droplet digital PCR multiplex assay containing tissue‐conserved and tumor‐specific methylation markers. The assay can detect circulating tumor DNA with high accuracy in patients with localized and metastatic colorectal cancer.

Role of diaphragmatic ultrasound in the assessment of disease severity in stable interstitial lung disease patients

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease
Assessment of disease severity in interstitial lung disease (ILD) is usually performed using lung function tests, exercise testing, and chest imaging. Each modality has its own benefits and drawbacks.
