The amount of methane released to the atmosphere from the Nord Stream subsea pipeline leaks remains uncertain, as reflected in a wide range of estimates. A lack of information regarding the temporal variation in atmospheric emissions has made it challenging to reconcile pipeline volumetric (bottom-up) estimates with measurement-based (top-down) estimates. Here we simulate pipeline rupture emission rates and integrate these with methane dissolution and sea-surface outgassing estimates to model the evolution of atmospheric emissions from the leaks.

Human neural rosettes (hNRs) are radial cell structures that assemble from induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and recapitulate some stages of neural tube morphogenesis. Here we show that hiPSCs and hNRs secrete EVs (hiPSC-EVs and hNR-EVs) with distinctive protein cargoes.

Methods: A 6L water bath was heated with a sous vide immersion circulator to 24C, 28C, 32C and 36C to simulate severe hypothermia, moderate hypothermia, mild hypothermia, and normothermia. A TEE probe, esophageal temperature probe, and bladder temperature probe were used to measure temperature.
Background: Registered nurses (RNs) working in intensive care settings report challenges in supporting the physical as well as perceived additional psychological care of patients with mental health disorders (MHD).
Aim: To undertake a scoping review of RNs' knowledge, attitudes, and perspectives of caring for patients with MHD in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
Method: Arksey and O'Malley's 2005 scoping review methodology was used, and the quality of reporting was upheld with PRISMA-Scoping Review guidelines.
