Forty-five patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and reciprocating tachycardia which utilized the atrioventricular (A-V) node for antegrade conduction and an accessory pathway for ventriculo-atrial (retrograde) conduction were studied. The extrastimulus technique in the right atrium and coronary sinus at multiple pacing cycle lengths was used. Three types of "echo zones" were defined...

We consider a spatial stochastic model for telecommunication networks, the stochastic subscriber line model, and we investigate the distribution of the typical shortest path length between network components. Therefore, we derive a representation formula for the probability density of this distribution which is based on functionals of the so-called typical serving zone. Using this formula, we c...

BACKGROUND Resuscitative balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) can maintain hemodynamic stability during hemorrhagic shock after a following torso injury, although inappropriate balloon placement may induce brain or visceral organ ischemia. External anatomical landmarks [the suprasternal notch (SSN) and xiphoid process (Xi)] are empirically used to implement REBOA in zone 1. We aimed to confir...

The theory of electron impact ionization of oneand two-electron atoms has advanced significantly in the past two years. This paper will summarize the progress that the members of our research center have contributed to.

We used historical flood plume extent data (modelled) to quantify the typical spatial extent of the summer runoff-seawater mixing zone of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) lagoon. Spatially explicit analysis of the variability of in situ chlorophyll a concentrations (observed) across the runoff-seawater mixing zone, then allowed us to explore regional differences in the nutrient enrichment impact of...

Elongation of sporangiophores marked with numerous starch grains was photographically recorded in the steady state and during the light-growth response when the rate is more than doubled. From these records the spatial distribution of growth within the cell's growth zone was derived. Stimulation by a single saturating flash of light speeds growth proportionally in all parts of the growing zone,...
