چکیده

The application of statistical communication techniques to the analysis of intestinal motility records has made available certain information that has heretofore been obscure. This information is: 1. A measure of total activity expressed in square millimeters of Hg. 2. The frequency and amplitude of segmental activity. 3. A measure of the random variations in the amplitude of the "segmental" waves. 4. A measure of random activity and the range and relative amplitudes of the frequencies making up this component.

AN APPLICATION OF AUTOCORRELATION METHODS TO THE INTERPRETATION OF INTESTINAL MOTILITY RECORDS* Bx' MELVIN D. SMALL,

Many physiologic functions fluctuate with time and the wave forms vary in complexity. Simple waves, such as the peripheral pulse, present no serious problem in analysis. When, however, the wave form is complex in appearance, existing analytic methods do not yield precise information. The general similarity between complex physiologic wave patterns and communication signals, such as sound waves,...

In vivo and in vitro effects of Salsola collina on gastrointestinal motility in rats

Objective(s): Salsola collina is widely distributed along the Bohai coast and consumed as an edible plant by native residents. We have found surprisingly that S. collina extracts promoted gastrointestinal motility in mice previously. In the present study, effects of S. collina on gastrointestinal motility in rats and its underlying mechanism were explored.<st...

New Improvement in Interpretation of Gravity Gradient Tensor Data Using Eigenvalues and Invariants: An Application to Blatchford Lake, Northern Canada

Recently, interpretation of causative sources using components of the gravity gradient tensor (GGT) has had a rapid progress. Assuming N as the structural index, components of the gravity vector and gravity gradient tensor have a homogeneity degree of -N and - (N+1), respectively. In this paper, it is shown that the eigenvalues, the first and the second rotational invariants of the GGT (I1 and ...

اثر پاشیدن بوپی واکائین داخل صفاقی بر حرکات روده ای و درد بعد از عمل جراحی

Background and purpose: The duration and intensity of intestinal motility disorder and pain following abdominal surgery vary among patients. Ileus and postportative pain are iatrogenic phenomena influencing the patients’ morbidity, hospital cost and length of stay in hospital. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of intraperitoneal bupivacaine on postoperative bowel motility...

Interpreting Ambiguous Social Situations in Social Anxiety: Application of Computerized Task Measuring Interpretation Bias

Background and Aims: The interpretation bias which is an important factor in the pathology of social anxiety disorder, has been recently considered in therapeutic approaches. Given the importance of interpretation bias in the treatment of social anxiety, and despite the ambiguity in the relationship between social anxiety and interpretation bias, we compared the interpretation bias in individua...
