TL;DR: Findings point to a central role of social synchrony in facilitating reciprocal communication between individuals via heightened OXT signaling, and Elevated OXT concentrations among synchronized individuals seem to augment the partners’ emotional expressiveness, thereby contributing to improved transmission of emotional information in social communication.

TL;DR: The aim of the current review article is to elaborate on the clinical and physiological reasons for why high-intensity NPPV is favourable to low-intensityNPPV.

TL;DR: There are major differences between the 2 guidelines on long-term oxygen therapy and many of the aspects raised by the BTS guideline appear to be reasonable with regard to the current literature, clinical experience and prescription practices.

TL;DR: Outpatient control of long-term NIV in a hospital setting is feasible and has the capacity to identify stable COPD patients in whom NIV therapy is sufficient according to predefined criteria.

TL;DR: This real-life trial identified the FFM as the predominantly used interface in COPD patients undergoing long-term NIV, likely to be influenced by higher IPAP levels, which form part of the basis for successful application of HI-NIV in clinical practice.
