Using optical topography (near-infrared spectroscopy: NIRS), relative changes in oxidized hemoglobin (oxy-Hb) were measured before and after the introduction of Role lettering. Tasks performed during measurements included antegrade (from the subject to other persons) and retrograde (from other persons to the subject) mental imaging and writing tasks. All subjects were junior high school student...

Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the energy utilization technologies for CO2 capture which is ready for commercial demonstration. System steady-state simulation is an effective tool to help us understand the thermodynamic properties and adjust operation conditions of oxy-fuel combustion system. Moreover, dynamic simulation is essential for understanding the dynamic characteristics of the system, w...

BACKGROUND Exertional dyspnea is the primary symptom that limits exercise in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is unknown which activated brain area is associated with this symptom in COPD patients. OBJECTIVES To investigate the activation of cortical areas associated with dyspnea during exercise in COPD patients. METHODS COPD patients (n = 10) and age-matched c...

• Oxy-fuel combustion is a simple method for CO 2 capture. The emissions are negative if captured from of -neutral biomass. To change CFB boiler to oxy-fuel, heat must be moved furnace backpass. Oxy-combustion by flue-gas recirculation capture applied an existing, already -neutral, biomass-fired circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler, thus resulting in emissions. required oxygen concentration d...

Ether and restraint stress-induced peripheral plasma corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), arginine vasopressin (AVP), oxytocin (OXY) and adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) levels were measured by radioimmunoassays. Plasma CRH, AVP, OXY and ACTH rose to approximately twice the level of control rats 2 min after the onset of a 1-min exposure to ether. Plasma CRH rose further 5 min after the onset of eth...

OBJECTIVE To explore brain activity in the frontal micturition area during natural bladder behavior. METHODS Five control subjects (one man and four women; mean age 61 years [38-70]) and four subjects with detrusor overactivity (all men; mean age 55 years [33-65]) were enrolled in the study. We performed real-time measurements of oxyhemoglobin concentration (oxy-Hb) changes in the frontal mic...

The crystal structures of three chalcones with a bromo-substituted but-oxy side chain, viz. (E)-1-[4-(4-bromo-but-oxy)-phen-yl]-3-phenyl-prop-2-en-1-one, C19H19BrO2, (I), (E)-1-[4-(4-bromo-but-oxy)-phen-yl]-3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C20H21BrO3, (II), and (E)-1-[4-(4-bromo-but-oxy)-phen-yl]-3-(3,4-di-meth-oxy-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C21H23BrO4, (III), are reported. In all mol-ecule...
