Manipulation of ionic transport in the self-assembled polymer thin films using nanoarchitectonics approach can open the door for the development of novel electronic devices with ultrafast operation and low-power consumption. Here, we demonstrate a highly sensitive and ultrafast responsive flexible humidity sensor for human respiration monitoring. Humidity sensing behavior of the polymerbased planar devices, in which a polyethylene oxide-phosphotungstic acid (PEO-PWA) thin film is placed between an opposing inert electrodes, have been investigated by optimizing the device configuration and PWA salt concentration in the PEO matrix. The ultrafast response (~50 ms) and recovery (~52 ms) of the humidity sensor enabled us to study the real-time human respiration monitoring. Using morphological analysis, it is proposed that the ultrafast response-recovery time for this sensor is ascribed to their self-assembled lamellar-like structures of the PEO-PWA matrix polymer, which provides long-range continuous proton transport path in the polymer interface.

Objectives: Islet transplantation is one of the most promising curative methods for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), but early hypoxic death of the graft post-transplantation impedes successful treatment. To improve the efficacy of islet transplantation and enhance islet cell resistance to hypoxia, reducing hypoxic injury before revascularization is crucial. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to regulate immune responses and protect against hypoxic damage through paracrine mechanisms.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between postoperative driving pressure (DP) and the prognosis of lung transplantation, and to further evaluate the value of early DP monitoring in lung transplantation.
Methods: A observational study was conducted. The patients after lung transplantation who admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Wuxi People's Hospital from February 1, 2022 to February 1, 2023 were collected.
Airway pressures generated by high flow nasal cannula in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure: a computational study.

Introduction And Objectives: High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is an increasingly popular mode of non-invasive respiratory support for the treatment of patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). Previous experimental studies in healthy subjects have established that HFNC generates flow-dependent positive airway pressures, but no data is available on the levels of mean airway pressure (mP) or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) generated by HFNC therapy in AHRF patients. We aimed to estimate the airway pressures generated by HFNC at different flow rates in patients with AHRF, whose functional lung volume may be significantly reduced compared to healthy subjects due to alveolar consolidation and/or collapse.

Background: Several preoperative pulmonary assessment protocols have been established over the years, but assessments of this magnitude are lacking in the bariatric population. Therefore, the assessment of lung capacity, maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressures, the peak expiratory flow and mobility can be predictors of operative safety and determine the time of hospital discharge.
Objective: To evaluate lung capacity, respiratory muscle strength and level of mobility in the pre, immediate post-operative and hospital discharge of patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
