EVALUATION OF HYDRATION STATUS CALCULATED FROM DIFFERENCES IN VENOUS AND CAPILLARY PLASMA DILUTION DURING STEPWISE CRYSTALLOID INFUSIONS: A RANDOMIZED CROSSOVER STUDY IN HEALTHY VOLUNTEERS

Background and objective: A mini volume loading test (mVLT) was proposed for estimating hydration status and interstitial fluid accumulation during stepwise infusion of crystalloids.The method is based on both the transcapillary reflux model and the hypothesis that when subjects are dehydrated, venous plasma dilution induced by a fluid challenge is

Single-photon detectors, with their exceptional sensitivity, provide a reliable means for single-photon-level detection, demonstrating significant advantages in detecting weak signals in complex environments compared to traditional detectors.With the continuous advancement in semiconductor manufacturing technology, single-photon detectors based on

Hypersaline environments are considered one of the most extreme habitats on earth and microorganisms have developed diverse molecular mechanisms of adaptation to withstand these conditions.The present study was aimed at identifying novel genes involved in salt resistance from the microbial communities of brines and the rhizosphere from the Es Trenc

An extensive need for the refurbishment and renewal of existing building stock has been the focus of consideration for many decades, principally because of the high global energy consumption and pollution levels.This paper presents the results of the analysis of certain sets of timber frame prefabricated insulation elements for the major renovation
