In this paper, a knittle pressure sensor was designed and fabricated by coating graphene/Polyvinylidene Fluoride nanocomposite on the knitted polyester substrate. The coating was carried out by a dip-coating method in a nanocomposite solution. The microstructure, surface properties and electrical properties of coated layers were investigated. The sensors were tested under the application of different pressures, and the corresponding sensor signals were analyzed in terms of resistance change. It was observed that the change in resistance was 55% kPa with a sensitivity limit of 0.25 kPa. The sensor model was created and simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics software, and the model data were favorably compared with the experimental results. This investigation suggests that graphene-based nanocomposites can be used in knittle pressure sensor applications.

Objective: Acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy in severe vasodilatory shock is associated with an unfavorable prognosis. Angiotensin II treatment may help these patients by potentially restoring renal function without decreasing intrarenal oxygenation. We analyzed the impact of angiotensin II on the outcomes of acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy.

Background: Vasodilatory shock that does not respond to high-dose vasopressors is associated with high mortality. We investigated the effectiveness of angiotensin II for the treatment of patients with this condition.
Methods: We randomly assigned patients with vasodilatory shock who were receiving more than 0.
