Inflammatory Response Mechanisms Exacerbating Hypoxemia in Coexistent Pulmonary Fibrosis and Sleep Apnea by Ayodeji Adegunsoye, Jay Balachandran

“…Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis commonly have obstructive sleep apnea, which potentiates the hypoxic stimuli for oxidative stress, culminating in systemic inflammation and generalized vascular endothelial damage. Comorbidities like pulmonary hypertension, obesity, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction contribute to chronic hypoxemia leading to the release of proinflammatory cytokines that may propagate clinical deterioration and alter the pulmonary fibrotic pathway. …”

Uncertainty Analysis of Biogas Generation and Gas Hydrate Accumulations in the Baiyun Sag, South China Sea by Pibo Su, Jinqiang Liang, Huai Cheng, Yaoyao Lv, Wei Zhang, Zuofei Zhu

“…In addition to the thermal conditions of the source rock or sediment, the nature of the organic matter is another crucial factor. Generally, low-temperature methanogens produce more methane gas because they require less energy, whereas high-temperature methanogens require more energy and thus produce less methane gas. (3) The biogas generation thermal model is key to controlling the location and quantity of natural gas hydrate resources. …”
