Frame, Mary D. S. Conducted signals within arteriolar networks initiated by bioactive amino acids. Am. J. Physiol. 276 (Heart Circ. Physiol. 45): H1012–H1021, 1999.—Our purpose was to determine the specificity of L-arginine (L-Arg)induced conducted signals for intravs. extracellular actions of L-Arg. Diameter and red blood cell velocities were measured for arterioles [18 6 1.6 (SE) μm] in the c...

BACKGROUND Final infarct size following coronary occlusion is determined by the duration of ischemia, the size of myocardium at risk (MaR) and reperfusion injury. The reference method for determining MaR, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) before reperfusion, is impractical in an acute setting. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether MaR can be determined from the c...

AIMS To determine the myocardial salvage index, the extent of infarction needs to be related to the myocardium at risk (MaR). Thus, the ability to assess both infarct size and MaR is of central clinical and scientific importance. The aim of the present study was to explore the relationship between T2-weighted cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and contrast-enhanced steady-state free precession (C...

We propose the use of Multivariate Autoregressive (MAR) models of fMRI time series to make inferences about functional integration within the human brain. The method is demonstrated with synthetic and real data showing how such models are able to characterise inter-regional dependence. We extend linear MAR models to accommodate nonlinear interactions to model top-down modulatory processes with ...

Augmented Reality (AR) and Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) applications have gained much research and industry aŠention these days. Œe mobile nature of MAR applications limits users’ interaction capabilities such as inputs, and haptic feedbacks. Œis survey reviews current research issues in the area of human computer interaction for MAR and haptic devices. Œe survey €rst presents human sensing c...
