BIOGEOGRAPHY OF THE ENDOSYMBIOTIC DINOFLAGELLATES (SYMBIODINIACEAE) COMMUNITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE BROODING CORAL FAVIA GRAVIDA IN THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.

Biogeography of the endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) community associated with the brooding coral Favia gravida in the Atlantic Ocean.

Zooxanthellate corals live in symbiosis with phototrophic dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae, enabling the host coral to dwell in shallow, nutrient-poor marine waters.The South Atlantic Ocean is characterized by low coral diversity with high levels of endemism.However, little is known about coral-dinoflagellate associations in the region

Saved by the PEEP: Resolution of Complete Unilateral Lung Collapse Secondary to Mucus Plugging With Ventilator Technique

Bronchoscopy liftmaster expansion board can be used to resolve respiratory failure caused by tenacious mucus plugs.However, emergent bronchoscopy to resolve mucus plugging is not always available in small rural hospitals around the country.We present a case in which increasing the positive end-expiratory pressure settings on the ventilator resulted

Recruiting patients to a digital self-management study whilst in hospital for a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation: A feasibility analysis

Background Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are often hospitalised with acute exacerbations (AECOPD) and many patients get readmitted.Intervening with hospitalised patients may be optimal timing to provide support.Our previous work demonstrated use of a digital monitoring and self-management support tool in the community.H
