BACKGROUND Atelectasis occurs after a well performed endotracheal suction. Clinical studies have shown that recruitment manoeuvres added after endotracheal suction during mechanical ventilation restore lung function. Repetitive lung over-distension is, however, harmful for the lung, and the effects of adding a larger breath, recruitment breath, directly after repeated endotracheal suction were ...

Pacidamycins are a family of uridyl tetra/pentapeptide antibiotics that act on the translocase MraY to block bacterial cell wall assembly. To elucidate the biosynthetic logic of pacidamcyins, a putative gene cluster was identified by 454 shotgun genome sequencing of the producer Streptomyces coeruleorubidus NRRL 18370. The 31-kb gene cluster encodes 22 proteins (PacA-V), including highly dissoc...

Cerebro vascular CO2 Reactivity of the Fast and Slow Clearing Compartments • Regional cerebral blood flow measurements have been made at two levels of Paco, using the clearance of Xenon injected into the internal carotid artery. Specific and percent changes in blood flow per mm Hg change in Paco, (CO2 reactivity) have been calculated for the fast and slow clearing tissue (Ff and Fs) and F initi...

BACKGROUND Currently, data are not available concerning a safe insufflation pressure that provides a proper view of the surgical field without adverse metabolic and hemodynamic changes in humans undergoing the robot-assisted thyroidectomy bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) using the da Vinci robotic surgical system. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal carbon dioxide (CO₂...

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of nebulised budesonide and systemic corticosteroid in the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). DESIGN Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS A total of 40 patients who had moderate to severe acute exacerbations of COPD and required hospitalisatio...

It has generally been thought that homeostatic mechanisms of renal origin are responsible for minimizing the alkalemia produced by chronic hypocapnia. Recent observations from this laboratory have demonstrated, however, that the decrement in [HCO(-) (3)], which "protects" extracellular pH in normal dogs, is simply the by-product of a nonspecific effect of Paco(2) on renal hydrogen ion secretion...

This paper will present an agent based solution to control chemical processes in a manufacturing environment; items should undergo chemical reactions in different chemical baths to be processed by the system. Recipes for the processes only specify minimum and maximum times for each bath, and recipes depend strongly on characteristics of the item. We have applied the PACO paradigm for reactive a...
