Geo-economic variations in epidemiology, patterns of care, and outcomes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: insights from the LUNG SAFE prospective cohort study

Background Little information is available about the geo-economic variations in demographics, management, and outcomes of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We aimed to characterise the effect of these geo-economic variations in patients enrolled in the Large Observational Study to Understand the Global Impact of Severe Acute Respiratory Failure (LUNG SAFE). Methods LUNG SAFE was done during 4 consecutive weeks in winter, 2014, in a convenience sample of 459 intensive-care units in 50 countries across six continents. Inclusion criteria were admission to a participating intensive-care unit (including transfers) within the enrolment window and receipt of invasive or non…

QUALITATIVE PROPERTIES OF THE SOLUTIONS OF A NONLINEAR FLUX-LIMITED EQUATION ARISING IN THE TRANSPORT OF MORPHOGENS

In this paper we study some qualitative properties of the solutions of a nonlinear flux-limited equation arising in the transport of morphogens in biological systems. Questions related to the existence of steady states, the finite speed of propagating fronts or the regularization in the interior of the support are studied from analytical and numerical points of view.

On a nonlinear flux-limited equation arising in the transport of morphogens

Abstract Motivated by a mathematical model for the transport of morphogens in biological systems, we study existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions for a mixed initial–boundary value problem associated with a nonlinear flux-limited diffusion system. From a mathematical point of view the problem behaves more as a hyperbolic system than a parabolic one.
