چکیده

Left ventricular (LV) volume determinations by the area-length method were reevaluated in postmortem studies of left ventricles ranging from 0.5 to 90 cm3 absolute volume. The regression equation relating known and calculated volumes for calculated volumes <15 cm3 (V' 0.733V) was found to be significantly different from that for calculated volumes >15 cm3 (V'= 0.974V -3.1). From these equations, normal values for cinecardiographic LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), LV ejection fraction (LVEF), LV systolic output (LVSO), LV mass (LVM), and left atrial maximal volume (LAMax) were derived from 56 children (19 < 2 years) with normal left ventricles who underwent cardiac catheterization. Values for LVEDV/BSA were significantly less for infants (< 2 years) than for older children (42 10 versus 73 + 11 cm3/m2, P < 0.001). Values for LAMax/BSA were also less for infants than for older children (26 5 versus 38 8 cm3/m2, P < 0.001), and LVEF was significantly increasel for infants (0.68 0.05 versus 0.63 + 0.05, P < 0.01). The values for LVM/BSA (88 12 g/m2) and LVSO/BSA (4.42 + 0.95 liters/min/m2) were not significantly different for infants and older children. Multiple regression equations

Introduction and purpose: Despite the wide range of health benefits of physical&nbsp;activity, many people have a sedentary life style. Thus, it is necessary to conduct&nbsp;some interventions to promote physical activity. One of the most widely applied&nbsp;models in the field of exercise behavior is the Transtheoretical Model. In this&nbsp;study, we aimed to determine the effectiveness of an ...

Weak log-majorization inequalities of singular values between normal matrices and their absolute values

‎This paper presents two main results that the singular values of the Hadamard product of normal matrices $A_i$ are weakly log-majorized by the singular values of the Hadamard product of $|A_{i}|$ and the singular values of the sum of normal matrices $A_i$ are weakly log-majorized by the singular values of the sum of $|A_{i}|$‎. ‎Some applications to these inequalities are also given‎. ‎In addi...

Process optimization for ethanol production from very high gravity (VHG) finger millet medium using response surface methodology

The Box-Wilson central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) was used for ethanol fermentation using very high gravity (VHG) finger millet hydrolysate. Optimized process variables were namely, concentrations of yeast extract, magnesium sulphate and pH of the medium. High gravity mashes (>300 g dissolved solids per liter) were prepared by a thermo-stable α-amylase, f...
