Heart rate, Blood Pressure and Rate pressure product are important physiological parameters that can be utilized to analyze the physical condition of the human body. However, the step-by-step analysis on the changes of ECG waveforms and RPP before and after regular exercise has been presenting in this paper. This proposed work examines the Changes of ECG waveforms after regular exercise. Rate p...

Renal perfusion pressure (RPP) regulates renin release with a reduction of RPP stimulating and an elevation inhibiting renin secretion. The precise sensing and effector mechanisms by which changes in arterial pressure are linked to the exocytosis of renin are not well-defined. The present experiments were designed to study the potential role of adenosine as a mediator of this renal baroreceptor...

In 26 patients having coronary grafts, haemodynamics, coronary sinus blood flow and the arterio-coronary sinus difference of oxygen content were determined, awake and at four intervals during morphine-oxygen or halothane--oxygen anaesthesia. Rate-pressure product (RPP), triple product (TP) and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) were calculated. The correlation of the two indirect indices to M...

This study tests the hypothesis that P2X1 receptors mediate pressure-induced afferent arteriolar autoregulatory responses. Afferent arterioles from rats and P2X1 KO mice were examined using the juxtamedullary nephron technique. Arteriolar diameter was measured in response to step increases in renal perfusion pressure (RPP). Autoregulatory adjustments in diameter were measured before and during ...

PURPOSE Evaluate the results of urinary continence on patients who had undergone radical perineal prostatectomy (RPP) for clinically localized prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed the continence data of 120 patients with pathology of cT1-cT2N0M0 prostate cancer and who had undergone RPP. Continence was assessed on the day of catheter removal, at the end of the first and third mo...

INTRODUCTION Surgery plays a central role in the management of organ-confined prostate cancer (PCa). Four types of prostatectomy are currently practiced: perineal, retropubic, laparoscopic, and robot-assisted. The qualification criteria for all types are similar. Radical perineal prostatectomy (RPP) was the first method introduced into clinical practice, however, it has been neglected in favor ...

Integrin cytoplasmic tails regulate integrin activation including an increase in integrin affinity for ligands. Although there is ample evidence that the membrane-proximal regions of the alpha and beta tails interact with each other to maintain integrins in a low-affinity state, little is known about the role of the membrane-distal region of the alpha tail in regulation of integrin activation. ...

When faced with a diagnosis, it is empowering to be able to assess the evidence of treatment effectiveness and safety. To teach this skill to non-science majors, we assigned the "Responsible Patienthood Project" (RPP). For the RPP, students studied an array of disease and treatment literature: the final product of their work was a poster presentation, in which they did an in-depth analysis of o...

In this survey we investigate the application of the Adleman-Lipton model on Rural Postman problem, which given an undirected graph G = (V,E) with positive integer lengths on each of its edges and a subset E ′ ⊆ E, asks whether there exists a hamiltonian circuit that includes each edge of E ′ and has total cost (sum of edge lengths) less or equal to a given integer B (we are allowed to use any ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cardiovascular response during head-out water immersion, underwater treadmill gait, and land treadmill gait in stroke patients. METHODS Ten stroke patients were recruited for underwater and land treadmill gait sessions. Each session was 40 minutes long; 5 minutes for standing rest on land, 5 minutes for standing rest in water or on treadmill, 20 minutes for treadmill...
