There were investigated properties of WMD, especially metallographic structure, toughness and fatigue strength of welds with various oxygen amount. The connection between the properties of welds with the content of oxygen in WMD were carried out. The research results indicate that it should be limited oxygen content in steel welds. Subsequent researchers could fi nd more precisely the most bene...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). In this study, we investigated perioperative factors, including oxygen content, related to the postoperative development of AKI after LDLT. The perioperative data of 334 patients were reviewed retrospectively. We identified the postoperative development of AKI based on the Acute Kidney Injury Net...

There is general agreement that the fall in haemoglobin after birth is an expression of the increased oxygen saturation of the blood when lung replaces placenta as a source of oxygen. We have sought to express this idea concretely, to show that the changes which occur in the form and number of red cells after birth are due to variations in the erythropoietic activity of the marrow, and finally ...

This experiment investigated the relationship between oxygen consumption and oxygen delivery (cardiac output X arterial oxygen content) in an acute canine model. Previous studies investigating this relationship have largely utilized methods in which oxygen consumption and oxygen delivery were each calculated using the same measured variables resulting in mathematical coupling of variables. In t...

supported vanadia catalyst was successfully synthesized using wet impregnation of gamma-alumina to study propane oxidative dehydrogenation (pod). the prepared catalysts were characterized with xrd, bet, and tpr tests. in a broad temperature range (340 to 630°c), effects of vanadia loading (2.7, 5.4, and 9 wt%) and propane to oxygen ratio (3/1 to 1/3) were investigated on propane conversion as w...

Oxygen atoms within fossil wood provide high-resolution records of climate change, particularly for the Quaternary. However, current analysis methods of fossil cellulose do not differentiate between different positions of the oxygen atoms. Here, we propose a refinement to tree-cellulose paleoclimatology modeling, using the cellulose-derived compound phenylglucosazone as the isotopic substrate. ...

Previous studies have concluded that polycythemia decreases oxygen delivery primarily because of a large fall in cardiac output associated with a rise in systemic vascular resistance that has been attributed to increased blood viscosity. However, because other studies have shown that polycythemia may not reduce oxygen delivery, an alternative hypothesis is that cardiac output falls in response ...

a three dimensional, compressible, steady, one phase flow of reactant-product mixture in the air side electrode of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (pemfc) is numerically studied in this paper. the mixture is composed of three species: oxygen, nitrogen and water vapor. the performance of the cell is enhanced by partial blockage of the flow field channels. various types of these blocks also ca...
