Delivery of continuous cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) plays an important role in the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival rate. However, to prevent CPR artifacts being superimposed on ECG morphology data, currently available automated external defibrillators (AEDs) require pauses in CPR for accurate analysis heart rhythms. In this study, we propose a novel Convolutional Neural Network-based Encoder-Decoder (CNNED) structure with a shock advisory algorithm to improve the accuracy and reliability of shock versus non-shock decision-making without CPR pause in OHCA scenarios.

The aim of the study was to develop a science-based approach to the development of a carrier of a pharmaceutical substance using the modification of chitosan. Studies were carried out to determine the upper limit of acidity - ascorbic and acetic to obtain salt forms of chitosan, the choice of modification of chitosan and the experimental development of a method for obtaining its solid salt form. A scientifically based approach to research has made it possible to develop a technology for obtaining a water-soluble biodegradable carrier based on salt forms of chitosan.

Background: In crustaceans, several mechanisms provide for the mechanical strength of the cuticular "tools" (dactyli, claws, jaws), which serve to catch and crush food objects. Studies on the mandibles of the endemic Baikal amphipod Acanthogammarus grewingkii by means of electron microscopy and elemental analysis have revealed specific structural features of these mouthparts.

Methodology: The fine structure of the mandible has been studied by means of SEM, TEM, and AFM; methods used to analyze its elemental and phase composition include XEPMA, XPS, SEM-EDS analysis, and XRD.

Features of the mechanism of action of positively charged benzoquinone derivatives (SkQ), which are the analogs of coenzyme Q (I), plastoquinone (II), and tocopherol (III), are discussed. It is usually considered that the main target of these compounds is mitochondria, where they accumulate due to the positive charge of the molecule. In the present work, it is shown with model systems that the reduced forms of compounds (I-III) under certain conditions can transform into electrically neutral cyclic zwitterions, which theoretically can escape from the matrix of energized mitochondria against the concentration gradient.
