PULMONARY TOXICITY AND INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE OF VAPE CARTRIDGES CONTAINING MEDIUM-CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES OIL AND VITAMIN E ACETATE: IMPLICATIONS IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF EVALI

Recently, there has been an outbreak of a condition named e-cigarette or vaping Trigun products-associated lung injury (EVALI).The primary components of vaping products include tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), vitamin E acetate (VEA) and medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), may be responsible for acute lung toxicity.Currently, little information is availab

Casearia sylvestris Sw.(Salicaceae) is noted for its morphological and chemical plasticity and pharmacological properties.The present study investigates two of its varieties: C.sylvestris var.sylvestris, predominant in dense and humid forests and ecotones and characterized by clerodane diterpenes; and C.sylvestris var.lingua, mainly found in xeric

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) may develop after either lung or haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), with similarities in histopathological features and clinical manifestations.However, there are differences in the contributory factors and clinical trajectories between the two conditions.BOS after HSCT occurs due to systemic gr

Flexible electronics with great functional characteristics have proved to be a stepping stone in the field of wearable devices.Amongst artificial all, gesture-sensing techniques have been widely studied for human-machine interfaces.In this paper, we propose a self-powered gesture-sensing system attached to the back of the hands, which has the capab
