Background: It is uncertain whether an association exists for decreases in driving pressure and the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients undergoing selective lung resection surgery. Thus, we designed this study to determine whether the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration to the lowest driving pressure compared with conventional low PEEP level during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients undergoing selective lung resection surgery decreases PPCs.

Methods: This single-centre, randomised trial approved by the Ethical Committee of the Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center involved patients who signed written consent. Patients were randomised to the PEEP titration to the lowest driving pressure group (n = 104), or to the conventional low level of PEEP group (n = 103), consisting a PEEP level of 4 cm HO during OLV. All patients received volume-controlled ventilation with a tidal volume of 6 mL/kg of predicted body weight. The primary outcome was defined as positive if 4 or more of eight Melbourne Group Scale (MGS) variables developed within the first 3 days after surgery. The incidence of major PPCs occurring during postoperative 7 days was also recorded.

Results: Among 222 patients who were randomised, 207 (93%) completed the trial (109 men [53%]; mean age, 56.9 years). The primary outcome occurred in 4 of 104 patients (4%) in the PEEP titration to the lowest driving pressure group compared with 13 of 103 patients (13%) in the conventional low level of PEEP group (risk ratio, 0.32 [95% CI, 0.10-0.90]; P = 0.021).

Conclusions: Among patients undergoing selective lung surgery, intraoperative OLV with PEEP titration to the lowest driving pressure compared with conventional low PEEP level (4 cm HO) significantly reduced PPCs within the first 3 postoperative days, however, did not significantly reduce PPCs within the first 7 postoperative days.

Plasma flows with enhanced dynamic pressure, known as magnetosheath jets, are often found downstream of collisionless shocks. As they propagate through the magnetosheath, they interact with the surrounding plasma, shaping its properties, and potentially becoming geoeffective upon reaching the magnetopause. In recent years (since 2016), new research has produced vital results that have significantly enhanced our understanding on many aspects of jets.

The urban agglomeration represents the predominant form of new urbanisation, yet the evolution of its internal spatial structure exhibits pronounced spatial and temporal heterogeneity. This study concentrates on the Bohai Rim urban agglomeration, one of three major urban agglomerations in China, which has received comparatively limited research attention but has also undergone substantial urbanisation. Therefore, we reassessed and explored the spatial-temporal evolution of the spatial structure of urban expansion using Exploratory Spatiotemporal Data Analysis (ESTDA), and summarized the driving mechanisms using Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR).

Urban resilience assessment framework and spatiotemporal dynamics in Hubei, China.

Building resilient cities has become an emerging risk management strategy, thus it is necessary to make a scientific evaluation on urban resilience. In this study, both the Driving Force-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) framework and the BP neural network are innovatively adopted to construct a comprehensive urban resilience evaluation system. Prefecture-level cities in Hubei Province are examined for empirical analysis.

Traditional sprayers are limited to applying spray mixture solely to the upper surfaces of crops. To overcome this limitation, a variable angle spraying machine (VASM) was designed using a linkage system. This machine enables the adjustment of both the spray position and angle through a single input signal, facilitating multi-directional spraying from the top to the bottom of crops.
