Universal scaling law of electrical turbulence in the mammalian heart.
Many biological processes, such as metabolic rate and life span, scale with body mass (BM) according to the universal law of allometric scaling: Y = aBM(b) (Y, biological process; b, scaling exponent). We investigated whether the temporal properties of ventricular fibrillation (VF), the major cause of sudden and unexpected cardiac death, scale with BM. By using high-resolution optical mapping, ...
متن کاملUniversal scaling law in human behavioral organization.
We describe the nature of human behavioral organization, specifically how resting and active periods are interwoven throughout daily life. Active period durations with physical activity count successively above a predefined threshold, when rescaled with individual means, follow a universal stretched exponential (gamma-type) cumulative distribution with characteristic time, both in healthy indiv...
متن کاملUniversal scaling of production rates across mammalian lineages.
Over many millions of years of independent evolution, placental, marsupial and monotreme mammals have diverged conspicuously in physiology, life history and reproductive ecology. The differences in life histories are particularly striking. Compared with placentals, marsupials exhibit shorter pregnancy, smaller size of offspring at birth and longer period of lactation in the pouch. Monotremes al...
متن کاملProbing mammalian touch transduction
Humans rely on our sense of touch for a broad range of essential behaviors, such as feeding, successful child rearing, and avoiding bodily harm. Although widely regarded as one of the five basic senses, touch is a complex sense that encompasses numerous modalities , including stretch, pressure, and vibration. Touch-sensitive neurons display a corresponding diversity of force sensitivities, phys...

Scaling law for the Υ(4S) → B ¯ B and ψ(3770) → D ¯ D decay constants from effective sum rules Abstract Sum rules for exclusive production of heavy meson pairs in e + e − annihilation are used to evaluate the Υ(4S) → B ¯ B and ψ(3770) → D ¯ D decay widths. Infinitely heavy quark limit is discussed, so that scaling law for the quarkonium-meson coupling constant is derived. A value of the B ¯ B p...
