Cardiac magnetic resonance of single ventricles.
The assessment of the patient with a single ventricle is an enormous challenge to medical science. Not only are there are varied types of single ventricles, nearly all patients require either heart replacement or reconstructive surgery, including an aortic to pulmonary connection. During the various phases of reconstructive surgeries which eventually leads to the Fontan procedure (1), there are...
متن کاملAxial Transport of Simple Gases in Nanochannels
It is proposed that at low density and temperatures less than 600 K, argon gas molecules in a carbon nanotube oscillate with in a potential well of -5 kJ/mol depth. With increase temperature, it is expected that molecular diffusivity will increase more quickly than predicted by Knudsen diffusion models. Axial transport occurs in two domains; a near wall domain, in which there is a significant r...
متن کاملA simple flowmeter for unusual gases.
A flowmeter is described which may be used to measure gas flow in experimental situations. It may be adapted for use with any gas or gas mixture and be used to provide flows as small as 50 ml min-1. A mercury-in-glass manometer (sphygmomanometer) is used to measure the gas pressure proximal to a flow restrictor (consisting of a hypodermic needle hub) and it is this pressure head which, for a gi...
متن کاملSimple and Complex Interactions
While the role of abiotic factors in governing species interactions is dealt with in various chapters of this book (e.g. Chap. 7 by Terlizzi and Schiel, Chap. 9 by Benedetti-Cecchi and Chap. 13 by Gili and Petraitis), we will focus here on the biotic factors that affect species interactions. Due to the large number of examples on biotic interactions, we can not and do not attempt to give a comp...
متن کاملCommentary Simple codes versus efficient codes
Transmission of information is an important function of cortical neurons, so it is conceivable that they have evolved to transmit information efficiently, with low noise and high temporal precision. Such precision is consistent with the output generated by various working models that mimick neuronal activity, from simple integrate-and-fire models to elaborate numerical simulations of realistic-...
