Thirty-four patients with primary myocardial disease were studied and classified into three distinct types based on their left ventriculogram. Each had unique ventriculographic characteristics and findings. Type I are patients with a normal contraction pattern and an elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. Type II A are patients with a hypertrophic pattern without obstruction to outfl...

in this paper, we establish and prove the existence of best proximity points for multivalued cyclic $f$- contraction mappings in complete metric spaces. our results improve and extend various results in literature.

recently, choudhury and metiya [fixed points of weak contractions in cone metric spaces, nonlinear analysis 72 (2010) 1589-1593] proved some fixed point theorems for weak contractions in cone metric spaces. weak contractions are generalizations of the banach's contraction mapping, which have been studied by several authors. in this paper, we introduce the notion of $f$-weak contractions and als...

Previously, we reported that hyposmotic swelling evoked transient vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) contraction that was completely abolished by L-type Ca(2+) channel blockers. In contrast, sustained contraction revealed in hyper- and isoosmotically-shrunken SMCs was insensitive to L-type channel blockers and was diminished in Ca(2+)-free medium by only 30-50%. Several research groups reported ...

Type II diabetes is the most prevalent form of diabetes. One of the primary complications of diabetes that significantly affects quality of life is bladder dysfunction. Many studies on diabetic bladder dysfunction have been performed in models of type I diabetes; however, few have been performed in animal models of type II diabetes. Using the Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rat model of type II dia...

OBJECTIVE Insulin and contraction increase skeletal muscle glucose uptake through distinct and additive mechanisms. However, recent reports have demonstrated that both signals converge on the Akt substrate of 160 kDa (AS160), a protein that regulates GLUT4 translocation. Although AS160 phosphorylation is believed to be the primary factor affecting its activity, AS160 also possesses a calmodulin...

banach contraction principle has been generalized in different spaces by mathematicians over the years. mustafa and sims [18] proposed a new class of generalized metric spaces, which are called as g-metric spaces. in this type of spaces a non-negative real number is assigned to every triplet of elements. many mathematicians studied extensively various results on g-metric spaces by using the con...

In this paper, we introduce a pair of generalized proximal contraction mappings and prove the existence of a unique best proximity point for such mappings in a complete metric space. We provide examples to illustrate our result. Our result extends some of the results in the literature.

In this paper we introduce a generalization of Meir-Keeler contraction forrandom mapping T : Ω×C → C, where C be a nonempty subset of a Banachspace X and (Ω,Σ) be a measurable space with being a sigma-algebra of sub-sets of. Also, we apply such type of random fixed point results to prove theexistence and unicity of a solution for an special random integral equation.
