Article Synopsis
- Hospital and nursing-care-acquired infections are increasingly problematic, especially for older adults, with aerosol transmission of pathogens being a key concern during epidemics like COVID-19.
- Understanding how airborne particles carry pathogens is vital for controlling diseases like influenza and SARS-CoV-2, as smaller particles can stay airborne and contribute to transmission.
- The review discusses methods for studying aerosol particle behavior in the lungs, various numerical lung models, and effective air purification techniques to enhance safety in healthcare settings, particularly for vulnerable elderly populations.

The COVID-19 pandemic had far-reaching effects on various areas of everyday life. In several countries, singing, the most accessible form of musical expression, was banned, as was the use and teaching of wind instruments. Nevertheless, innovations in music education combined with teachers' dedication and creativity introduced several elements into the teaching process which are worth using in the future.

To improve the effectiveness of surveys of this and other gibbon species, and ultimately their conservation, it is important to better understand the variables that affect their singing behavior-the feature that is currently used in most gibbon population surveys. We collected singing and meteorological data from 320 days, between October 2020 and March 2021, at 80 different locations, during an auditory presence/non-detection survey of N.

Passive acoustic monitoring has improved our understanding of vocalizing organisms in remote habitats and during all weather conditions. Many vocally active species are highly mobile, and their populations overlap. However, distinct vocalizations allow the tracking and discrimination of individuals or populations.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate online-merge-offline (OMO)-based music therapy (MT) as a complementary option for asthma management in pediatric patients. A total of 86 children diagnosed with mild asthma were enrolled and treated with the same drug therapy. They were assigned into three groups: Music I group (standard medical care plus a single individualized MT session along with singing training and breathing exercise), Music II group (similar as Music I as well as further wind instrument playing), and Control group (standard medical care).
