Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 1216: Characterization of the Volatile Constituents of Plai (Zingiber purpureum) by Gas Chromatography & ndash;Mass Spectrometry
In this study, we performed the characterization of the volatile constituents in ethyl acetate extracts of plai. Ethyl acetate extracts derived from the rhizomes of plai were subjected to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, and the key peaks in the total ion current chromatograms were annotated or identified. In total, twenty-one compounds were identified using isolation procedures or standards, and nine compounds were annotated by comparing their Kovats retention index (RI) and electron ionization (EI) mass spectra with those in the literature. Most of the identifications were inconsistent with the tentati...

dCROX and ROX Indices Predict Clinical Outcomes in Patients with COVID-19 Pneumonia Treated with High-Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: ROX index has the highest accuracy for predicting successful weaning from HFNC in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. dCROX index is the alternative tool for this setting. However, a larger prospective cohort study is needed to verify these indices for determining separation from HFNC therapy. This trial is registered with TCTR20221107004.PMID:38450049 | PMC:PMC10917475 | DOI:10.1155/2024/8880259 (Source: Critical Care Research and Practice)
