Search Techniques to Find Specific Information on Suggested Topics

Where do you begin to find the information you need on specific topics?

• Select Databases from the Library's homepage.

2. The Databases are arranged in alphabetical order. The most relevant to Respiratory Therapy are CINAHL and MEDLINE .  The interfaces for CINAHL and MEDLINE are similar.

3. Click on Advanced Search .

4.   Enter your keyword search terms in each box.  Each term can be combined with the term above it.

This search will result in articles that have information about both asthma AND its pathology.

4. If you conducted your search here, you would probably get too many results, and several of them would be irrelevant.  To make your results more accurate, it's a good idea to select limiters.  Limiters,  let you narrow your search.   The more you choose, the less results you will get.

Dissertation Topics For MD Respiratory Medicine Dissertation & Thesis Writing Service & Help

Because theses are required by law, it is recommended that you select your thesis topic for MD respiratory medicine with care and consideration. As with any subject, you need to decide what you are good at and then narrow it down to two or three topics that can be done in two to three years.

You should also make sure that the topic that you choose is something that you are interested in and will be interesting to you. If the topic you are considering is not something you are interested in then you should consider someone else who is interested in the same area. It is important to make sure that you and your adviser do not have too many topics on which to work on as this could slow down the completion time and make it difficult for you to focus on your work.

When you choose your topic for MD, you need to remember that it does not have to be strictly research papers or any other type of writing. Even though you need to complete your research papers, you should consider using articles and even journal articles when you can write them because these types of papers often require little to no research at all.

In the same way that research papers do not have to be strictly research papers, an article does not have to be solely about a doctor. For instance, if you are interested in medical communication, then you should consider including articles written about topics such as communicating with patients, using medical charts, developing patient communication skills, and creating medical reports. In addition to the article, you can also include a few pages of your own personal research paper in addition to the doctor’s research paper.

It is always a good idea to include a section on why you chose your doctor. This is often an important part of the thesis, because it allows your advisor to see why you selected that doctor over others. If you were attracted to a particular doctor due to a physical attribute that the doctor had, then it may be appropriate to include that information in your personal research paper. For example, if you like doctors that are outgoing and fun, then you may want to include in your personal writing some information about what it was that drew you to your chosen doctor.

Although the dissertation is not required by law, it is always good to include in your dissertation, an analysis of a doctor’s work. It is always nice to include your research paper with the doctor’s work for MD but if you do not have the time or if the doctor is retired, then you may want to discuss in your personal writing how you believe his or her work is important.

When you review your doctor’s work, you should consider the fact that there are many things that you do not know and this is where you can gain insight from. For example, when studying anatomy and physiology you may not fully understand the concept behind the methods that the doctor uses in treating patients so you may want to discuss this in your personal paper.

Common antibiotic may be helpful in fighting respiratory viral infections.

(© stock.adobe.com)

A new, Yale-led study suggests that a range of respiratory viral infections — including COVID-19 and influenza — may be preventable or treatable with a generic antibiotic that is delivered to the nasal passageway.

A team led by Yale’s Akiko Iwasaki and former Yale researcher Charles Dela Cruz successfully tested the effectiveness of neomycin, a common antibiotic, to prevent or treat respiratory viral infections in animal models when given to the animals via the nose. The team then found that the same nasal approach — this time applying the over-the-counter ointment Neosporin — also triggers a swift immune response by interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) in the noses of healthy humans.

The findings were published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

“ This is an exciting finding, that a cheap over-the-counter antibiotic ointment can stimulate the human body to activate an antiviral response,” said Iwasaki, the Sterling Professor of Immunobiology and professor of dermatology at Yale School of Medicine and co-senior author of the new study.

“ Our work supports both preventative and therapeutic actions of neomycin against viral diseases in animal models, and shows effective blocking of infection and transmission,” said Iwasaki, who is also professor of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology in Yale’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences, professor of epidemiology at Yale School of Public Health, and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

Respiratory viruses affect millions of people each year. The global COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, has led to 774.5 million cases worldwide as of February 2024, with global mortality of 6.9 million people. Influenza viruses account for up to 5 million cases of severe illness and 500,000 deaths annually worldwide.

Currently, most therapies used to fight respiratory viral infections — including antivirals, monoclonal antibodies, and convalescent plasma therapy — are delivered intravenously or orally. They focus on stopping the progression of existing infections.

A nasal-centered therapy has a much better chance of stopping infections before they can spread to the lower respiratory tract and cause severe diseases, the researchers said.

“ This collaborative multi-disciplinary work combined important insights from animal pulmonary infection modeling experiments with human study evaluation of this intranasal approach to stimulate antiviral immunity,” said Dela Cruz, former associate professor of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine, and of microbial pathogenesis at Yale School of Medicine and former director of the Center for Pulmonary Infection Research and Treatment. Dela Cruz is currently at the University of Pittsburgh.

In their study, the researchers found that mice treated intranasally with neomycin showed a robust ISG line of defense against both SARS-CoV- 2 and a highly virulent strain of influenza A virus. The researchers also found that an intranasal treatment of neomycin strongly mitigated contact transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in hamsters.

In healthy humans, intranasal application of Neosporin (containing neomycin) also initiated a strong expression of ISGs in a subset of volunteers, the researchers said.

“ Our findings suggest that we might be able to optimize this cheap and generic antibiotic to prevent viral diseases and their spread in human populations, especially in global communities with limited resources,” Iwasaki said. “This approach, because it is host-directed, should work no matter what the virus is.”

The co-first authors of the new study, all from Yale, are Tianyang Mao, Jooyoung Kim, and Mario Peña-Hernández.

The effect of steplike high-temperature treatment (SHTT) on the composition and structure of carbides in the ledeburite eutectic of R6M5 high-speed steel ingots is studied. It is shown that SHTT processes lead to fragmentation and a change in the composition of the primary carbides, which causes their disintegration and a decrease in the carbide size during hot deformation.

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.
