Abstract Mild hypothermia can attenuate the development of brain damage after asphyxia. Supplemental oxygen during resuscitation increases generation of reactive oxygen species, compared to room air. It is unknown if supplemental oxygen affects hypothermic neuroprotection. We studied the early effects of hyperoxic reoxygenation and subsequent hypothermia on tissue oxygenation, microcirculation, inflammation and brain damage after global hypoxia. Anesthetized newborn pigs were randomized to control (n=6), or severe global hypoxia (n=46). Three pigs died during hypoxia or reoxygenation. After 20-min reoxygenation with room air (n=22) or 100% oxygen (n=21), pigs were randomized to normothermia (deep rectal temperature 39 degrees C, n=22) or total body cooling (35 degrees C, n=21) for 6.5 h before the experiment was terminated. We demonstrated a differential effect of post-hypoxic hypothermia between animals reoxygenated with 100% oxygen and with room air, with reduced damage only in hypothermic animals reoxygenated with 100% oxygen (P=0.001). Hyperoxic reoxygenation resulted in a significant overshoot in striatal oxygen tension, without affecting microcirculation. Inflammatory response after the insult did not differ between groups. The results indicate an early protective effect of hypothermia which may vary with oxygen level used during reoxygenation.

Commercial HVAC systems intended to mitigate indoor air pollution are operated based on standards that exclude aerosols with smaller diameters, such as ultrafine particles (UFPs, D ≤ 100 nm), which dominate a large proportion of indoor and outdoor number-based particle size distributions. UFPs generated from occupant activities or infiltrating from the outdoors can be recirculated and accumulate indoors when they are not successfully filtered by an air handling unit. Monitoring UFPs in real occupied environments is vital to understanding these source and mitigation dynamics, but capturing their rapid transience across multiple locations can be challenging due to high-cost instrumentation.

Background: Methods to elicit the vital capacity (VC) include forced vital capacity (FVC) and slow vital capacity (SVC). Because the FVC maneuver can be affected by air trapping or inefficiencies in lung emptying vs. the SVC, the SVC-FVC difference may be substantial and diagnostically meaningful in elderly individuals and patients with respiratory obstruction.

Van der Waals (vdWs) materials are promising candidates for hetero-integration with silicon photonics toward miniaturization and integration. VdWs materials like molybdenum telluride and black phosphorus, despite being prominent, exhibit air sensitivity, and their room temperature emissions can be significantly broadened by tens of meV. Here, a self-encapsulation strategy is developed to scalably synthesize robust 2D vdWs ErOCl with sub-meV narrow emissions at the telecom C-band.

The engineering design and construction of active interfaces represents a promising approach amidst numerous initiatives aimed at augmenting catalytic activity. Herein, we present a novel approach to incorporate interconnected pores within bulk single crystals for the synthesis of macroscopic porous single-crystalline rutile titanium oxide (R-TiO). The porous single crystal (PSC) R-TiO couples a nanocrystalline framework as the solid phase with pores as the fluid phase within its structure, providing unique advantages in localized structure construction and in the field of catalysis.
