INHALANT USE DISORDER
What is inhalant use disorder? It is a problem that can develop when people deliberately breathe in the fumes of various substances, in order to experience intoxication. Basically, the disorder develops in people who frequently use inhalants as a recreational drug.
Overview from Wikipedia: Inhalant Use Disorder
Age Onset: Children and young teenagers.
Symptoms: Since the inhalants (even household chemicals) are heavier than oxygen when breathing, there is frequently brain damage or death through suffocation.
Causes: Specifically for inhaling glue, 38 U. S. states prohibit glue sales when inhaling is anticipated.

- Efficacy of Perinatal Pharmacotherapeutic Actions for Survival of Very Preterm Newborn Rabbits at 26-Day Gestationby Meimei Chen on January 26, 2023
CONCLUSION: The combined regimens of perinatal medications achieved remarkable survival in very preterm rabbits with lung protective ventilation strategy, offering a unique model in investigation of very preterm birth-associated respiratory physiology and morbidities.
- Role of impulse oscillometry in diagnosis and follow-up in bronchial asthmaby Saurabh Mandilwar on January 25, 2023
CONCLUSION: Impulse oscillometry is superior in predicting bronchial asthma and its parameters are also more sensitive in accessing treatment response. It can replace spirometry as it is easy to perform and effort independent.
- Modeling on the Effects of Deliberate Release of Aerosolized Inhalational Bacillus anthracis (Anthrax) on an Australian Populationby Valentina Costantino on January 25, 2023
This study aimed to determine optimal mitigation strategies in the event of an aerosolized attack with Bacillus anthracis, a category A bioterrorism agent with a case fatality rate of nearly 100% if inhaled and untreated. To simulate the effect of an anthrax attack, we used a plume dispersion model for Sydney, Australia, accounting for weather conditions. We determined the radius of exposure in different sizes of attack scenarios by spore quantity released per second. Estimations of different...
- Resveratrol-Loaded Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine Liposomal Large Porous Microparticle Inhalations for the Treatment of Bacterial Pneumonia Caused by Acinetobacter baumanniiby Zicheng Yu on January 25, 2023
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii-mediated bacterial pneumonia is a common disease that is harmful to human health. Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) is the major lipid component of the pulmonary surfactant (PS) found in the alveolar space; the PS helps to keep surface tension low, which allows for improved oxygen delivery. Resveratrol (RE) is a phytoalexin found in plants that is released in response to injury or infection. The therapeutic effect of Re is limited due to its low solubility...
