Rate and temporal responses evoked by 1-kHz or 8-kHz tones in continuous broadband noise are described for large populations of auditory nerve fibers in anesthetized cats. The signal-to-noise ratios (S/Ns) of the tone and noise stimuli were above behavioral detection thresholds. Stimulus combinations were presented (1) over a range of moderate to high noise intensities at a constant S/N and (2)...

Long depolarizations cause a steady tonic contraction and induce sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-uptake in trout atrial myocytes. Simultaneous measurements of cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) and whole membrane current showed an elevated [Ca2+]i throughout the depolarization. Rapid caffeine (Caf) applications at -80 mV before and after a long depolarization were used to determine SR Ca2+ loading a...

the aim of this study was investigation the energy flow and global warming potential (gwp) of corn farm in gorgan city. for this purpose, data were collected from three conventional planting methods (spring planting, summer planting in wheat residue and summer planting without wheat residue) by using a face-to-face questionnaire performed with farmers in summer 2012. after the required data in ...

OBJECTIVE Preoperative left ventricular systolic function is an important prognostic factor in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery. Preoperative myocardial deformation may be impaired without reduction in conventional indices such as ejection fraction (EF). Strain rate (SR) imaging is very sensitive in detecting regional systolic abnormalities and might allow diagnosis of subclinical chang...

In this paper, a decoding method is proposed for the (41, 21, 9) quadratic residue code. The method is acquired through applying the condition of the modified Gao’s algorithm that is similar to fast transform decoding developed by Shiozaki [8]. The property of the syndrome polynomial is used in our decoding method. The new algorithm for has been verified by a software simulation using C languag...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the suitability of bioabsorbable drawn selfreinforced polyglycolide (SR-PGA) and poly-L/DL-lactide 70:30 (SR-PLA70) implants in experimental and clinical fixations of cancellous bone osteotomies, arthrodeses and fractures. The study consists of a set of two experimental and two clinical studies, including 109 experimental animals and 87 patien...

We report Sr isotope anomalies in two Ca·Al-rich inclusions (EKl-4-1 and Cl) of the Allende meteoritewhichalsocontainanomaliesin 0, Mg, Ca, Ba, Nd and Sm. The Sr effects correspond to 84 Sr or 88 Sr deficits of 3.2"too and 0.8%o or to 86 Sr excesses of 1.6%o and 0.4"too. Although it cannot be ascertained in which isotope the anomalies reside, arguments based on the 8 7 Sr abundance indicate tha...
