Methods Forty-one patients with isolated severe AS without obstructive coronary artery disease underwent adenosine stress perfusion CMR in a 1.5T scanner (Siemens Avanto); MPR was calculated from absolute myocardial blood flow during adenosine hyperaemia and rest determined by model-independent deconvolution of signal intensity curves with an arterial input function. Transthoracic echocardiogra...

this paper presents analytical solutions and simulations for pressure transient behavior of the partially penetrating wells (ppws). the newman’s product method was adopted to develop the basic instantaneous source functions which characterize the response of ppws. these results were obtained based on the solution of fully penetrating wells (fpws) and they were presented in laplace domain. furth...

Hypertension is a major cardiovascular (CV) risk factor and is predicted by heightened CV reactivity to stress in healthy individuals. Patients with hypertension also show an altered stress response, while insecure attachment is linked to a heightened stress reactivity as well. This is the first study aiming to assess attachment representations in patients with primary hypertension and to inves...

The data from the study reveals the normal cardiopulmonary responses in untrained subjects (18-19 yrs) and their aerobic power. Fifty male medical students in the given age group were selected for the study. They were subjected to moderate, predetermined, graded exercise on a bicycle ergograph and parameters like heart-rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate were recorded at rest, just after ...

UNLABELLED Hypertension is one of the most common health disorders, and yoga has been shown to be an effective adjunct therapy in its management. Earlier studies have reported blood pressure (BP)-lowering effects of slow, deep breathing after 3 weeks and 3 months of training and beneficial immediate effects of slow, deep breathing in reducing premature ventricular complexes and lowering blood p...

exposure to stress leads to physiological changes called “stress response” which are the result of the changes in the adrenomedullary hormone system, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (hpa) and sympathetic nervous system (sns) activity. in the present study, the effects of chronic physical and psychological stress and also the role of sympathetic system effects in stress on ischemia/reperfusion (i...

BACKGROUND/AIM To investigate the influence of thiopental (85 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (ip)), and ketamine+xylazine (ketamine 75 mg/kg and xylazine 8 mg/kg, ip) anesthesia on the incidence and duration of ischemia/reperfusion-induced arrhythmias. MATERIALS AND METHODS Myocardial ischemia was induced by a 6-min ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery, followed by a 6-min reper...

this paper tries to survey and estimate non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment (nairu) and potential output. it uses the unobserved components model to propose a new method. the model consists of ukan law equations and philips curve. it uses unobservable key economic variable in the form of unobserved random trends in an equation system of three variables namely unemployment, gross dom...

Objectives: Aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of yogic practice in some cardiovascular and respiratory parameters of overweight females after menopause. Background: Non pharmacological management of cardiorespiratory efficiency on overweight postmenopausal women. Materials and Methods: A total of 15 overweight (BMI > 25 kg/m 2 and < 30 kg/m 2 ) females after menopause (age 53.7 ± 1....
