The influence of inspiratory time and frequency of jet ventilation was investigated in an experimental model of a jet ventilator and a set of artificial lungs. The optimal ventilatory settings, when used in the clinical context, result in safe, adequate ventilation, as was proved by Astrup and intratracheal pressure measurements in 15 patients.

Design of experiments method into upgrading pyrolytic oil for sustainable aviation fuel additives by hydrotreating and hydrocracking.

Recycling waste to produce liquid fuels for the automotive and aviation industries is a major global concern, especially in light of the ongoing energy crisis. Because waste is used in thermal conversion processes, the resulting liquid products often require additional processing to reduce their density and viscosity, and to remove oxygenated compounds or pollutants that hinder further utilization. Catalytic hydrogenolytic reactions such as hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) and hydrocracking (HC) have been extensively applied to upgrade pyrolysis oils.

Article Synopsis
- Tracheostomy tubes increase the risk of respiratory infections, and initial treatment often involves nebulized tobramycin, but there’s a lack of standardized treatment guidelines.
- A study used a breathing simulator to test how much tobramycin reaches simulated children with tracheostomies, comparing delivery methods and doses for different child weights.
- Results showed that jet nebulizers delivered significantly more tobramycin than vibrating mesh nebulizers, highlighting the need for better dosing strategies and further research on drug delivery efficiency and higher dosages for this patient group.

Evaluating the Efficacy of Inhaled Colistin via Two Nebulizer Types in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia: Prospective Randomized Trial.

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taoyuan 33342, Taiwan.
Article Synopsis
- A study tested the effectiveness of inhaled colistin in treating ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by resistant bacteria, using two types of nebulizers: a vibrating mesh nebulizer (VMN) and a jet nebulizer (JN).
- Patients receiving intravenous (IV) colistin inhalation were randomly assigned to either nebulizer type and compared to a control group receiving IV only over a period of 7 to 10 days, with a focus on clinical improvement.
- While VMN delivered a higher dose of colistin in lab tests, both nebulizers showed similar clinical outcomes in patients, showing significant benefits over the IV-only group.
Efficacy and safety of supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation to minimize sedation-related hypoxemia: a meta-analysis with GRADE approach.

Introduction: Hypoxemia is a common complication of sedation. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation (SJOV) in preventing hypoxemia during sedative procedures.
Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared SJOV with conventional oxygen therapy in sedated patients were searched in five databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], and Google Scholar) from their inception to March 2024.
