A high-order finite difference scheme has been developed to approximate
the spatial derivative terms present in the unsteady Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations
and incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations. Near the wall the sharp solution
profiles are resolved by using the combined compact difference (CCD) scheme
developed in five-point stencil. This CCD scheme has a sixth-order accuracy for the
second-order derivative terms while a seventh-order accuracy for the first-order derivative
terms. PNP-NS equations have been also transformed to the curvilinear coordinate
system to study the effects of channel shapes on the development of electroosmotic
flow. In this study, the developed scheme has been analyzed rigorously through
the modified equation analysis. In addition, the developed method has been computationally
verified through four problems which are amenable to their own exact solutions.
The electroosmotic flow details in planar and wavy channels have been explored
with the emphasis on the formation of Coulomb force. Significance of different forces
resulting from the pressure gradient, diffusion and Coulomb origins on the convective
electroosmotic flow motion is also investigated in detail. 相似文献

Background
Emergency Department (ED) overcrowding is a worldwide problem, and it might be caused by prolonged patient stay in the ED. This study tried to analyze if different practice models influence patient flow in the ED.Materials and methods
A retrospective, 1-year cohort study was conducted across two EDs in the largest healthcare system in Taiwan. A total of 37,580 adult non-trauma patients were involved in the study. The clinical practice between two ED practice models was compared. In one model, urgent and non-urgent patients were treated by different emergency physicians (EPs) separately (separated model). In the other, EPs treated all patients assigned randomly (merged model). The ED length of stay (LOS), diagnostic tool use (including laboratory examinations and computed tomography scans), and patient dispositions (including discharge, general ward admission, intensive care unit (ICU) admissions, and ED mortality) were selected as outcome indicators.Result
Patients discharged from ED had 0.4 h shorter ED LOS in the separated model than in merged model. After adjusting for the potential confounding factors through regression model, there was no difference of patient disposition of the two practice models. However, the separated model showed a slight decrease in laboratory examination use (adjusted odds ratio, 0.9; 95% confidence interval, 0.83–0.96) compared with the merged model.Conclusion
The separated model had better patient flow than the merged model did. It decreased the ED LOS in ED discharge patients and laboratory examination use. 相似文献5.

Ageing is a complex and multifactorial process resulting in several functional and aesthetic changes to the skin. We found that α-Naphthoflavone (α-NF) concentration-dependently induced pro-collagen type I protein expression and inhibited MMP-1 protein expression, in both normal and UVB-irradiated cells. SB431542 and SIS3 - inhibitors of TGF-β and Smad3, respectively - significantly alleviate α-NF-caused response of MMP-1 and pro-collagen. LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) can reverse α-NF-induced ERK, Akt, Smad-3 activation, pro-collagen synthesis and α-NF-suppressed AP-1 activation. PD (ERK inhibitor) was not involved in pro-collagen generation and MMP-1 inhibition. We concluded that α-NF promotes pro-collagen production and inhibits MMP-1 expression via the activation of a PI3K/Akt/Smad-3 pathway in normal and UVB-irradiated human skin fibroblasts, while TGF-β may play an important role in transducing this pathway. These results suggest that α-NF, a natural plant product, has the potential to become a novel anti-ageing skin application. 相似文献

Objective: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of extraluminal placement of a bronchial blocker compared with carbon dioxide (CO2) artificial pneumothorax in infants undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).Methods: The study involved 33 infants (group A) who underwent one-lung ventilation (OLV) with extraluminal placement of a bronchial blocker and 35 other infants (group B) who underwent CO2 artificial pneumothorax. Clinical characteristics, the degree of lung collapse, and complications were compared.Results: The degree of lung collapse in group A was significantly higher than that in group B at T2 and T3. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) of group B was significantly lower than that of group A at 10 min and 30 min after OLV. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) of group B was significantly higher than that of group A at 30 min after OLV. The incidence of hypotension in group B was higher than that in group A.Conclusion: Compared with CO2 artificial pneumothorax, extraluminal placement of a bronchial blocker is associated with a better degree of lung collapse, fewer episodes of hypotension, and lower PaCO2 accumulation during OLV in infants undergoing VATS. 相似文献

Postoperative vascular compromise is a common but critical complication requiring emergent re‐exploration, and remains a chief cause of free flap failure. This study investigated the relationship between postanesthetic shivering (PAS) and the development of postoperative complications associated with free flap reconstruction. One hundred thirty‐six patients who underwent head and neck cancer resection and free flap reconstruction were retrospectively enrolled. Fifteen patients were assigned to the PAS group, while the others were assigned to the non‐PAS (NPAS) group. The odds ratios of acute re‐exploration or total failure of the free flap in the PAS group was 3.5 and 14.9, respectively. The dose of meperidine was positively correlated with PAS prevention in our statistical ROC curve analysis. The minimum effective dose of meperidine for PAS prevention was 0.35 mg/kg with 75% sensitivity and 60% specificity. These findings indicate that an optimal dose of meperidine could prevent PAS, which is shown to be associated with a decrease in the incidence of the early post‐surgical re‐exploration rate of these free flaps related to circulatory compromise. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) has been in a global pandemic currently and relating symptoms were reported variously around the world. We reported a previously healthy man of COVID-19 presenting with anosmia as the obvious symptom with relevant radiological findings on brain magnetic resonance imaging. 相似文献
