Tobacco smoking increases dramatically air concentrations of endotoxin.
UNLABELLED We used a mass spectrometry-based assay for identifying the endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) marker (R)-3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid in cigarette smoke particles and found that smoking involved inhalation of 17.4 pmol of endotoxin per each smoked cigarette. Indoor exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) entailed inhalation of 12.1 pmol of LPS/m3 air, an amount that was 120 ti...
متن کاملBuild an Alpha Brain Wave Feedback Monitor
THERE is nothing quite so pleasant as heing able to relax completely whenever you want to. Unfortunately, today's quick pace rarely leaves us the time to truly relax. Perhaps for that reason, scientists have come up with ,111 electronic approach to relaxation that might revolutionize the art of "calming cloWl~." Drawing on knowledge of general psychology, eastern meditation techniques, and, in ...
متن کاملHexachlorobenzene exposure: widespread toxicant produces pervasive effects.
Neurotrauma represents a significant public health problem, accounting for a significant proportion of the morbidity and mortality associated with all traumatic injuries. Both blunt and penetrating injuries to cervicocerebral vessels are significant and are likely more common than previously recognized. Imaging of such injuries is an important component in the evaluation of individuals presenti...
متن کاملRegional Brain [11C]carfentanil Binding Following Tobacco Smoking
OBJECTIVE To determine if overnight tobacco abstinent carriers of the AG or GG (*G) vs. the AA variant of the human mu opioid receptor (OPRM1) A118G polymorphism (rs1799971) differ in [(11)C]carfentanil binding after tobacco smoking. METHODS Twenty healthy American male smokers who abstained from tobacco overnight were genotyped and completed positron emission tomography (PET) scans with the ...
متن کاملLearning dominant wave directions for plane wave methods for high-frequency Helmholtz equations
We present a ray-based finite element method (ray-FEM) for the high-frequency Helmholtz equation in smooth media, whose basis are learned adaptively from the medium and source. The method requires a fixed number of grid points per wavelength to represent the wave field; moreover, it achieves an asymptotic convergence rate of O(ω− 1 2 ), where ω is the frequency parameter in the Helmholtz equati...
