Guyton developed a popular approach for understanding the factors responsible for cardiac output (CO) regulation in which 1) the heart-lung unit and systemic circulation are independently characterized via CO and venous return (VR) curves, and 2) average CO and right atrial pressure (RAP) of the intact circulation are predicted by graphically intersecting the curves. However, this approach is v...

Combining the unique capabilities of robots, agents and people (RAPs) promises to improve the safety, efficiency, reliability and cost at which some goals can be achieved, while allowing the achievement of other goals not previously achievable. Despite their heterogeneity, and indeed, because of their heterogeneity, our key hypothesis is that in order for RAPs to work together effectively, they...

The first international reunion based on the above‐mentioned theme will take place between the 15 th and the 17 th of October, in Brasov, Romania. In fact, the event represents a continuation of " SANABUNA " Conference which took place in Bucharest, in " Carol Davila " University of Medicine and Pharmacy. The event approached the imperative of reflection and the responsible action towards the "...

Remanufacturing is a key strategy for achieving circular economy. One crucial obstacle to remanufacturing consumers’ acceptance (or non-acceptance) of remanufactured products. The current study investigated Indonesian perceived images auto parts (RAPs) in China. Consumers’ perception target country can be either helpful or damaging an international business. If China seeks successful operations...

Three-dimensional (3D) mapping and navigation systems have been widely used for the ablation of atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, but the applicability of these systems for the ablation of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) due to right-sided accessory pathways (RAPs) remains unknown. The goal of this prospective randomized study was to compare the safety, efficiency, and efficac...

The speech transmission index (STI) and room acoustic parameters (RAPs) are essential metrics for assessing quality predicting listening difficulty in a sound field. Although STI important RAPs, such as reverberation time clarity, can be derived from the impulse response (RIR), measuring RIR regularly occupied spaces is difficult. Hence, simultaneous blind estimation of RAPs an imperative chall...

The aim of the work was estimation of copper intake with the daily food rations used for alimentation of students of military high schools and soldiers doing compulsory military service in the Polish Army. An average planned copper content in daily food rations used for alimentation of students and soldiers amounted to 2.49±0.35 mg, and 2.44±0.25 mg respectively. The copper content in the daily...
