Abstract Background The effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in critically ill patients after cardiothoracic surgery are unknown. objectives were to investigate whether NMES prevents loss muscle layer thickness (MLT) and strength observe the time variation MLT from preoperative day hospital discharge. Methods In this randomized controlled trial, 54 into four strata based on SAPS II score. Patients blinded intervention. intervention group, quadriceps muscles electrically...

It has already been shown (1) that tissue cells growing in vitro are not independent cell-individuals, but form tissues and grow as a whole, forming partial undifferentiated organism. was concluded the anastomosis between individual found vivo well is significant for regulation of their growth. A special method developed which made it possible to distribute individually suitable medium. Cell-division never observed occur isolated cells, neither development cell colony from few scattered take...

ICU (intensive care unit) patients are exposed to nutritional risks such as swallowing problems and delayed gastric emptying. A previous stay may affect support upon transfer the ward. The aim was study use of enteral (EN), parenteral nutrition (PN), oral supplements (ONS) in ward with without a stay, also referred post- non-ICU patients. In total, 136,667 adult from nutritionDay audit 2010-2019 were included. defined an during current hospitalisation before nutritionDay. About 10% all...

The fabrication, properties, and irradiation behavior of Li2O γ-LiAlO2 are reviewed assessed to determine the potential these materials satisfy basic solid breeder blanket performance requirements. Based on data analysis theoretical modeling, a set major technical uncertainties is identified. These include1. fabricability sphere-pac breeders2. highfluence burnup effects thermal conductivity microstructural stability3. tritium diffusion coefficients at low temperature4. relationship among...
European and North American guidelines on Parenteral Nutrition (PN) large Randomized Controlled Trials give divergent advices nutritional therapeutic strategies for critically ill patients. We therefore investigated differences in of clinicians between Non-European Intensive Care Units (ICU) regarding start day PN, preferred route administration prescription total energy targets over the years. In this study 16,032 patients from 1389 different ICUs were included. Data collection was...
An extensive examination has been made of silver-sheathed (Bi-2223) composite conductors produced by the two-powder processing method, wherein single-phase (Bi-2212) is combined with a mix Pb-Ca-Cu-O phases to give an overall stoichiometry . The principal variable proportioning lead between Bi-2212 phase and phases. X-ray diffraction measurements scanning electron microscopy analyses have revealed that length induction period prior onset Bi-2223 formation decreases monotonically as initial...
The solubility of LiOH in Li2O was measured as a function temperature and partial pressure H2O. For these measurements, solid at temperatures 973 to 1273 K equilibrated with moisture helium carrier gas stream; monitoring the content allowed determination solubility. slope curve for H2O(g) versus observed be 0.6 is interpreted an indication nonideality system. given H2O, increased increasing temperature. As consequence tritium (as LiOT) breeding blanket expected low under anticipated fusion...

A new type of first heat treatment procedure for the silver-sheathed (Bi, Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3Ox composite conductor (Ag/Bi-2223) has been investigated. This consists using multiple oxygen partial pressure/temperature set point conditions that are systematically varied during course treatment. The present embodiment this (referred to as thermal slide treatment) involves use three specific (21.0% O2/835 °C, 7.5% O2/825 °C and 4.0% O2/815 °C) appropriately sequenced tuned time intervals. Application...
