In tiled pitched roofs, a ventilated layer reduces the heat transfer between Gift wrap tiles and roof structure by means of natural and forced convection, thereby also reducing the cooling energy requirement.This effect could be enhanced by increasing the air permeability between the tiles by means of novel tile shapes, as proposed by the HEROTILE
Lung recruitment is used to improve oxygenation and decrease the risk of ventilator induced lung injuries.Assessing the potential of recruitability is a pre-requisite for a rational recruitment strategy and setting of PEEP.Using a low flow pressure-volume loop is helpful to assess the potential of recruitability at the bedside.For patients with Dry
Background: The diverse organizational tasks have complicated cooperation between relief organizations for providing logistical support in disaster response operations with large casualties.This study was conducted to explore barriers to prehospital logistics support in traffic accidents with mass casualties.Materials and Methods: This qualitative
Abstract Background Accurate information on the distribution of the tsetse fly is of paramount importance to better control animal trypanosomosis.Entomological and parasitological surveys were conducted in the tsetse belt of south-western Ethiopia to describe the prevalence of trypanosomosis (PoT), the abundance of tsetse flies (AT) and to evaluate
