Does Video Laryngoscopy Offer Advantages over Direct Laryngoscopy during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation?

Objective: Interruption of chest compressions should be minimized because of its negative effects on survival. This randomized, controlled, cross-over study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of Macintosh, Miller, McCoy and McGrath laryngoscopes during with or without chest compressions in the scope of a simulated cardiopulmonary resuscitation scenario.

Methods: The time required for successful tracheal intubation, number of attempts, dental trauma severity and the need for optimization manoeuvres were recorded during cardiopulmonary resuscitation with and without chest compressions.

The effects of Origanum hypericifolium essential oil application and ultraviolet B irradiation on mouse skin: An ultrastructural study.

Exposure to UV radiation can cause histopathological and ultrastructural changes in the skin. Origanum hypericifolium, an endemic Turkish plant,essential oil is mainly composed of monoterpenes. The effects of undiluted O.

Detraining reverses exercise-induced improvement in blood pressure associated with decrements of oxidative stress in various tissues in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of moderate intensity swimming exercise (10 weeks) followed by detraining (for five and 10 weeks) on oxidative stress levels of heart, lung, kidney, and liver tissues and systolic blood pressure (SBP) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). SHR and control rats were randomized into sedentary, exercised, detrained (5 weeks) and late-detrained (10 weeks) groups. Corresponding sedentary rats were grouped as time 1-2-3.

Thermophilic Geobacillus galactosidasius sp. nov. loaded γ-Fe2O3 magnetic nanoparticle for the preconcentrations of Pb and Cd.

Thermophilic bacteria, Geobacillus galactosidasius sp nov. was loaded on γ-Fe2O3 magnetic nanoparticle for the preconcentrations of Pb and Cd by solid phase extraction before ICP-OES. pH and flow rate of the solution, amounts of biosorbent and magnetic nanoparticle, volume of sample solution, effects of the possible interferic ions were investigated in details.

Studies on effective atomic numbers, electron densities from mass attenuation coefficients near the K edge in some samarium compounds.

The effective atomic numbers and electron densities of some samarium compounds were determined using the experimental total mass attenuation coefficient values near the K edge in the X-ray energy range from 36.847 up to 57.142 keV.
