RESUMO
Invasive mechanical ventilation allows clinicians to support gas exchange and work of breathing in patients with respiratory failure. However, there is also potential for iatrogenesis. By understanding the benefits and limitations of different modes of ventilation and goals for gas exchange, clinicians can choose a strategy that provides appropriate support while minimizing harm. The ventilator can also provide crucial diagnostic information in the form of respiratory mechanics. These, and the mechanical ventilation strategy, should be regularly reassessed.

The magnetic structure of K2Co3(MoO4)3(OH)2 is studied in detail. The material has a half-sawtooth one-dimensional (1-D) structure containing two unique Co2+ ions, one in the chain backbone and one on the apex of the sawtooth creating a series of isosceles triangles along the b-axis. These triangles can be a source of magnetic frustration. The ability to grow large single crystals enables detailed magnetic measurements with the crystals oriented in a magnetic field along the respective axes. It has a Curie-Weiss temperature θCW of 5.3(2) K with an effective magnetic moment of 4.8(3)µB/Co. The material is highly anisotropic with a sharp antiferromagnetic ordering transition at 7 K with a metamagnetic transition at 2 kOe. Neutron diffraction was used to determine the magnetic structure and revealed a magnetic structure with canted spins along the backbone of the chain while spins along the sawtooth caps maintained a colinear orientation, arranging antiferromagnetically relative to the backbone spins. The parallel chains arrange antiferromagnetically relative to each other along the c-axis and ferromagnetically along the a-axis.
RESUMO
Intubation during Hypoxemic Respiratory FailureThere is little evidence to guide the common and high-stakes decision to initiate invasive ventilation in hypoxemic respiratory failure. In this Tomorrow's Trial, Yarnell and Patel propose a randomized trial of different physiological thresholds for the initiation of invasive ventilation.
