High-frequency ventilation is a type of mechanical ventilation therapy applied on patients with damaged or delicate lungs. However, the transport of oxygen down, and carbon dioxide up, the airway is governed by subtle transport processes which hitherto have been difficult to quantify. We investigate one of these mechanisms in detail, nonlinear mean streaming, and the impact of the onset of turbulence on this streaming, via direct numerical simulations of a model 12 bifurcating pipe. This geometry is investigated as a minimal unit of the fractal structure of the airway. We first quantify the amount of gas recirculated via mean streaming by measuring the recirculating flux in both the upper and lower branches of the bifurcation. For conditions modeling the trachea-to-bronchi bifurcation of an infant, we find the recirculating flux is of the order of 3-5% of the peak flux . We also show that for conditions modeling the upper generations, the mean recirculation regions extend a significant distance away from the bifurcation, certainly far enough to recirculate gas between generations. We show that this mean streaming flow is driven by the formation of longitudinal vortices in the flow leaving the bifurcation. Second, we show that conditional turbulence arises in the upper generations of the airway. This turbulence appears only in the flow leaving the bifurcation, and at a point in the cycle centered around the maximum instantaneous flow rate. We hypothesize that its appearance is due to an instability of the longitudinal-vortices structure.During the current Covid-19 pandemic, a lot of changes had to be made in the care of patients with facial nerve paralysis (FNP). FNP is a life-changing condition with effects on both physical (both esthetic and functional) and psychological aspects of the patient's life. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/atezolizumab.html Telemedicine could be a suitable alternative in the therapy for these patients, since it is often not possible to travel to outpatient clinics or to have normal face-to-face appointments with treating physicians because of pandemic restrictions. This review provides an overview of the current literature in the treatment of FNP during the pandemic and the role of telemedicine/e-Health. Secondly, we will discuss the challenges and pitfalls of implementing e-Health and telemedicine applications in clinical practice. Level of evidence Not ratable.A novel single-bed, "Snap-on" and standalone, medical oxygen concentrator design based on a rapid pressure swing adsorption process was investigated for continuous oxygen supply. The Snap-on concentrator design is easy to hook up to an existing compressed air source, and the unit can then be readily used to produce oxygen for medical applications. It is easily transportable and compared to a traditional oxygen concentrator with its dedicated compressor, the Snap-on concentrator is particularly relevant for the oxygen therapy needs of a larger number of patients in situations such as COVID-19. A commercially available LiLSX zeolite was used for the separation of oxygen from compressed ambient air. The experiments were performed at different feed air pressures using a constant supply of house air in the lab. Further, the device performance was also analyzed using a standalone medium size air compressor. The minimum bed size factor obtained with compressed house air was 100 lb/tons per day contained (TPDc) O2 attary medical camps and cruise ships. Further, the Snap-on design offers other benefits such as ease of transportation, higher reliability and lower weight.The global outbreak of coronavirus disease and rapid spread of the causative severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) represent a significant threat to human health. A key mechanism of human SARS-CoV-2 infection is initiated by the combination of human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) and the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2-derived spike glycoprotein. Despite the importance of these protein interactions, there are still insufficient detection methods to observe their activity at the cellular level. Herein, we developed a novel fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based hACE2 biosensor to monitor the interaction between hACE2 and SARS-CoV-2 RBD. This biosensor facilitated the visualization of hACE2-RBD activity with high spatiotemporal resolutions at the single-cell level. Further studies revealed that the FRET-based hACE2 biosensors were sensitive to both exogenous and endogenous hACE2 expression, suggesting that they might be safely applied to the early stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection without direct virus use. Therefore, our novel biosensor could potentially help develop drugs that target SARS-CoV-2 by inhibiting hACE2-RBD interaction.We have presented in the current analytic research the generating formulae and results of direct mathematical modelling of non-classical trends for COVID-19's evolution in world which, nevertheless, can be divided into two types (1) the general trends for European countries such as Germany presented by the curve of modified sigmoid-type with up-inclination of the upper limit of saturation (at the end of first wave of pandemic) as well as for other cases of key countries that suffered from pandemic such as USA, India, Brazil, Russia (we conclude that the same type of coronavirus pandemic is valid for most of the countries in world with similar scenarios of the same type for general trends); (2) non-classical general trends for Middle East countries (such as Iran), with the appropriate bulge on graphical plots at the beginning of first wave of pandemic. We expect that the second wave of pandemic will pass its peak at the end of December 2020 for various countries. Moreover, the second wave of pandemic will have come to end at first decade of January 2021 in Germany and Iran (but at the end of January 2021 in India as well), so we should restrict ourselves in modelling the first and second waves of pandemic within this time period for these countries. Thus, the model of first approximation is considered here which allows to understand the mean-time trends of COVID-19 evolution for the first + second waves of pandemic for USA, Brazil and Russia, or predict the approximated time period of the upcoming third wave of pandemic in cases of India, Germany and Iran.
