Echocardiographic and electrocardiographic parameters during the normal postpartum period in toy breeds of dogs
(Elsevier, 2017-11)
The aim of this study was to evaluate echocardiographic and electrocardiographic parameters during the normal canine postpartum period. Twenty clinically healthy pregnant bitches of toy breeds (11 Miniature poodles, five ...
Behavioural switching during oscillations of intracellular Ca2+ concentration in free-swimming human sperm
(BioScientifica, 2021-03-09)
A human sperm must swim to the egg to fertilise it. To do this the sperm uses different types of swimming (behaviours) as they are needed. When we watch sperm swimming we see that they regularly change behaviour, sometimes ...
Volcanic alert system by lightning detection using the WWLLN - ash cloud monitor
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-06)
Electrical discharges are observed in many volcanic eruptions and they have often been used as indicators of such eruptions. Volcanic lightning is remarkably similar to those produced during thunderstorms and is called ...
Pathogenic Role of Air Pollution Particulate Matter in Cardiometabolic Disease: Evidence from Mice and Humans
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2020-08)
Significance: Air pollution is a considerable global threat to human health that dramatically increases the risk for cardiovascular pathologies, such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and stroke. An estimated 4.2 ...
Normal modes in magnetized two-fluid spin quantum plasmas
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-12)
We extend the classical two-fluid magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) formalism to include quantum effects such as electron Fermi pressure, Bohm pressure, and spin couplings. At scales smaller than the electron skin-depth, the Hall ...
Neuroprotective role of hypothermia in hypoxic-ischemic brain injury: Combined therapies using estrogen
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2018-12)
Hypoxic-ischemic brain injury is a complex network of factors, which is mainly characterized by a decrease in levels of oxygen concentration and blood flow, which lead to an inefficient supply of nutrients to the brain. ...
Are Glial Cells Critical Participants in Brain Development, Function, and Disease?
(OMINCS, 2012-09)
Recently, an increasing number of studies have implicated a third element in plasticity; the perisynaptic glial cell. Originally glial cells were thought to be important for metabolic maintenance and support of Central The ...
The depressor axis of the renin-angiotensin system and brain disorders: A translational approach
(Portland Press, 2018-05)
All the components of the classic renin-angiotensin system (RAS) have been identified in the brain. Today, the RAS is considered to be composed mainly of two axes: the pressor axis, represented by angiotensin (Ang) ...
Percentile curves for left ventricle structural, functional and haemodynamic parameters obtained in healthy children and adolescents from echocardiography-derived data
(Springer, 2019-03)
Background Transthoracic echocardiography is the most common non-invasive technique for the study of the left ventricle (LV) and the proximal aorta. Despite the clinical value, there is scarcity of data about reference ...
Automatic quantification of the LV function and mass: A deep learning approach for cardiovascular MRI
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
Objective: This paper proposes a novel approach for automatic left ventricle (LV) quantification using convolutional neural networks (CNN). Methods: The general framework consists of one CNN for detecting the LV, and another ...
