Tidal flat ecosystems, are under steady decline due to anthropogenic pressures including sea level rise and climate change. Monitoring and managing these coastal systems requires accurate and up-to-date mapping. Sediment characteristics and macrozoobenthos are major indicators of the environmental status of tidal flats.

This study employed in-situ online monitoring to assess the impact of Spartina alterniflora harvesting on greenhouse gas emissions. Their fluxes and δC values were measured in unvegetated tidal flat, low and medium vegetation coverage areas of the salt marsh wetlands along the south shore of Hangzhou Bay about a month after harvest. The objective was to clarify fluxes changes and interactions with environmental factors.

Background: Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation comprise common life support interventions for patients in intensive care units (ICUs). Premature or delayed extubation increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. Despite following weaning protocols, 10-20 % of patients fail extubation within 48 h.

Protective ventilation reduces ventilator-induced acute lung injury postoperatively; however, the optimal strategy for one-lung ventilation (OLV) remains unclear. This study compared three protective ventilation strategies with a postoperative partial pressure of oxygen (PaO)/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO) ratio to reduce the incidence of immediate postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients undergoing lung resection surgery. Eighty-seven patients with ASA physical status I-III requiring OLV for lung resection surgery were randomized into three groups according to the applied ventilation strategies: low tidal volume (V) of 4 mL/kg of predicted body weight (PBW) (LV group), medium V of 6 mL/kg of PBW (MV group), and high V of 8 mL/kg of PBW (HV group).

Objectives: In this study, the capacity of End-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) levels to predict the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome and the relationship between risk scoring systems (TIMI, GRACE, HEART) and EtCO2 values were examined.
Methods: EtCO2 values of the patients in the study were measured with a capnography device. Each patient's MACE status was recorded.
