Arterial O2-Partial Pressure at Positve Endexpiratory Pressure in Hyperoxia for Verification of Patent Foramen Ovale?

1990

As a rule, during anaesthesia a time dependent increase in pulmonary shunting occurs even in states of normal lung function. Therefore positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation (PEEP) is often used to decrease intrapulmonary right/left shunting (RL shunt) and thus to increase arterial O2 partial pressure (paO2) without increasing the inspiratory oxygen fraction.

Pressure and Temperature Effects on Low-Density Mg3Ca(CO3)4 Huntite Carbonate

2019

Pressure (P)–volume (V)–temperature (T) relations of huntite [Mg3Ca(CO3)4] have been determined in situ up to 5 GPa and 500 °C using a resistive-heated diamond-anvil cell and synchrotron X-ray diff...

Current Concepts and Perspectives on Brain Arteriovenous Malformations: A Review of Pathogenesis and Multidisciplinary Treatment.

2021

Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are unusual vascular pathologies characterized by the abnormal aggregation of dilated arteries and veins in the brain parenchyma and for which the absence of a normal vascular structure and capillary bed leads to direct connections between arteries and veins. Although bAVMs have long been believed to be congenital anomalies that develop during the prenatal period, current studies show that inflammation is associated with AVM genesis, growth, and rupture. Interventional treatment options include microsurgery, stereotactic radiosurgery, and endovascular embolization, and management often comprises a multidisciplinary combination of these modalities. T…

Removing Leakage and Surface Recombination in Planar Perovskite Solar Cells

2019

Thin-film solar cells suffer from various types of recombination, of which leakage current usually dominates at lower voltages. Herein, we demonstrate first a three-order reduction of the shunt loss mechanism in planar methylammonium lead iodide perovskite solar cells by replacing the commonly used hole transport layer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) with a better hole-selective polyarylamine. As a result, these cells exhibit superior operation under reduced light conditions, which we demonstrate for the extreme case of moonlight irradiance, at which open-circuit voltages of 530 mV can still be obtained. By the shunt removal we also observe the VOC to dro…

Huumeet ja kirjailijoiden luovuus

2017

Pro gradu -tutkielmani käsittelee huumeiden ja kirjailijoiden luovuuden välistä yhteyttä. Kirjailijat ja alkoholi yhdistetään helposti toisiinsa, ja erityisesti siten, että alkoholi on ollut muusa. Alkoholiin mieltyneiden kirjailijoiden lisäksi historia tuntee myös huumeita käyttäneitä kirjailijoita. Miten huumeet vaikuttivat heidän luovuuteensa? Oliko eri huumeilla erilaisia vaikutuksia? Vai oliko huumeista pikemminkin haittaa luovalle työlle? Tarkastelen neljän hyvin erilaisen kirjailijan päihteidenkäyttöhistoriaa ja tuotantoa. Kirjailijat ovat William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson ja Stephen King. Heistä vain viimeksi mainittu on vielä elossa. Otan myös huomioon kirjaili…

Teacher Educators’ Professional Identity in English-Medium Instruction at a Finnish University

2021

Publisher Copyright: © 2021, University of Ljubljana. All rights reserved. Although different forms of English-medium instruction (EMI) are being recognised, the different ways in which EMI can impact the pedagogical activities and expertise of higher education educators have received less attention. Using face-to-face and written interviews with nine teacher educators at a Finnish university, this study examines the most important aspects teacher educators perceive in their work through EMI and how these aspects connect to the understanding of their professional identity. The study is theoretically premised on the interconnected concepts of pedagogical doing, pedagogical being, pedagogical…

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) complications: what diagnostic radiologists should know

2022

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective therapy for portal hypertension complications and can successfully treat variceal bleeding and refractory ascites. Although TIPS is relatively safe, procedural- or shunt-related morbidity can reach 20%, and procedural complications have a fatality rate of 2%. Delayed recognition and treatment of TIPS complications can lead to life-threatening clinical scenarios. Complications can vary from stent migration or malpositioning to nontarget organ injury, TIPS dysfunction, encephalopathy, or liver failure. This review aims to outline the role of diagnostic radiology in assessing post-TIPS complications.[GRAPHICS].
