There are many visualization tools available in infovis, but most of them are designed to display customized visualisations for specific data sets. PULSE is an approach to handle various time based data sets, no matter which problem domain is addressed. Therefore time based data is organized in streams of events, each having at least a name, starting time and duration. PULSE provides a basic in...

Attosecond pulses at photon energies that cover the principal absorption edges of the building blocks of materials are a prerequisite for time-resolved probing of the triggering events leading to electronic dynamics such as exciton formation and annihilation. We demonstrate experimentally the isolation of individual attosecond pulses at the carbon K-shell edge (284 eV) in the soft X-ray water w...

Interpretations of steroid hormone actions as slow, nuclear, transcriptional events have frequently been seen as competing against inferences of rapid membrane actions. We have discovered conditions where membrane-limited effects potentiate later transcriptional actions in a nerve cell line. Making use of a two-pulse hormonal schedule in a transfection system, early and brief administration of ...

Extremes in temperature and precipitation are associated with damaging floods, prolonged drought, destructive wildfires, agricultural challenges, compromised human health, vulnerable infrastructure, threatened ecosystems species. Often, the steady progressive trends (or presses) of rising global central focus how climate impacts described. However, observations extreme weather events pulses) in...

Clock synchronization is a widely discussed topic in the engineering literature. Ensuring that individual clocks are closely aligned is important in network systems, since the correct timing of various events in a network is usually necessary for proper system implementation. However, many existing clock synchronization algorithms update clock values abruptly, resulting in discontinuous clocks ...

Background The carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) assessed by tonometry is predictive of future cardiovascular disease (CVD) events; however, the predictive value of aortic arch PWV assessed by MRI for CVD events has not been established in the general population. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association of arch PWV with incident CVD events over 10 years based on the ...

There are observable physiological abnormalities prior to adverse events such as cardiac arrest, unanticipated admissions to intensive care and unexpected death (1-5). Abnormalities in vital signs such as blood pressure, respiratory rate, pulse and oxygen saturation are common prior to the occurrence of these serious adverse events. This relationship between changes in physiological measures an...

Increased arterial stiffness results in increased characteristic impedance of the aorta and increased pulse wave velocity, which increases systolic and pulse pressures. An association between increased pulse pressure and adverse cardiovascular events has been found in normotensive and hypertensive patient populations. Increased pulse pressure has also been associated with thickening of the caro...
