Right-ventricle heart failure in PAH vs. HFrEF with secondary PH: Hemodynamic, ergospirometric, and organ function correlations.

Purpose: The goal of the study was to identify markers of organ function used in daily routines that could potentially aid in the overall evaluation of the cardiovascular system in patients with right-ventricle heart failure due to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and left-ventricle heart failure. We analyzed correlations between parameters from right heart catheterization (RHC), cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET), and selected laboratory parameters of thyroid, liver, kidneys function and iron homeostasis.

Patients And Methods: A retrospective analysis included 107 patients (mean age 57.

Photoelectron jets and interference structures in ionization beyond dipole approximation: carrier- envelope phase effects and vortex streets.

We have analyzed photoelectron jet formation in strong-field ionization using the hydrodynamic picture of quantum mechanics. We showed that von-Kármán-like vortex streets emerge in between jets in photoelectron momentum distributions. The spatial orientation of the jets can be controlled by tailoring the carrier-envelope phase of the driving laser pulse.

The Effect of High-Pressure Homogenization Conditions on the Physicochemical Properties and Stability of Designed Fluconazole-Loaded Ocular Nanoemulsions.

The growing interest in high-energy emulsification is a result of its scalability, which is important from an industrial perspective and allows for a more reproducible and efficient production of pharmaceutical formulations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of composition, mainly a fixed surfactant/cosurfactant (S) ratio, their concentration, and the parameters of high-pressure homogenization (HPH) processing on the quality and stability of ophthalmic fluconazole-loaded nanoemulsions. After a physicochemical analysis of nanoemulsions containing 20% / of oil, as optimal conditions for the HPH process, three cycles at a pressure of 1000 bar were established, obtaining formulations with an average droplet diameter size in the range of 80.

Analysis of the Level of Stress and Methods of Coping with Stress among the Nursing Staff.

In general, "stress" is the reaction of the body to mental and physical demands placed on it. Stress disrupts mental balance, and reduces the ability to work and function, which negatively affects the performance of duties. The aim of this study was to analyse the level of stress and ways of coping with it among nursing staff.

Probing fluconazole deposition inside mesoporous silica using solid-state NMR spectroscopy: Crystallization of a confined metastable form and phase transformations under storage conditions.

Encapsulation of molecules into mesoporous silica carriers continues to attract considerable interest in the area of drug delivery and crystal engineering. Here, MCM-41, SBA-15 and MCF silica matrices were used to encapsulate fluconazole (FLU), a pharmaceutically relevant molecule with known conformational flexibility, using the melting method. The composites have been characterized using H, C and F NMR spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption, PXRD and thermal analysis (DSC, TGA).
