Background: Patients with cancer account for 15% of all admissions to critical care and so an understanding of the pathophysiology and anticipated complications of specialist treatment is essential for the intensive care clinician. The development of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for haematological malignancies and immune checkpoint inhibitors for solid organ tumours has led to significant improvements in the prognosis of those patients whose tumours respond. This review is intended to provide the non-specialist with an understanding of the current concepts in pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of complications due to chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors for malignant disease.

Fatigue can cause human error, which is the main cause of accidents. In this study, the dynamic fatigue recognition of unmanned electric locomotive operators under high-altitude, cold and low oxygen conditions was studied by combining physiological signals and multi-index information. The characteristic data from the physiological signals (ECG, EMG and EM) of 15 driverless electric locomotive operators were tracked and tested continuously in the field for 2 h, and a dynamic fatigue state evaluation model based on a first-order hidden Markov (HMM) dynamic Bayesian network was established.

Despite major advances in the field of actuator technology for microsystems, miniaturized microfluidic actuation systems for mobile devices are still not common in the market. We present a micropump concept and an associated mass flow sensor design, which, in combination, have the potential to form the basis for an integrated microfluidic development platform for microfluidic systems in general and microdosing systems in particular. The micropump combines the use of active valves with an electrostatic drive principle for the pump membrane and the valves, respectively.
