Neurons in the region of cat's solitary tract nucleus were classified into three groups on the basis of their spontaneous discharge rate during slow wave sleep (SS) as compared with wakefulness (W): group I: SS greater than W; group II: SS less than W; and group III: SS divided by W. These three groups were further examined with regard to the modulation of discharge rate i) during motor activit...

Observations from two freeway bottlenecks in and near Toronto, Canada indicate that the average rate vehicles discharge from a queue can be 10% lower than the ̄ow measured prior to the queue's formation. Absent any in ̄uences from downstream, the queue discharge ̄ows exhibited nearly stationary patterns that alternated between higher and lower rates. These alternating ̄ow patterns were especiall...

BACKGROUND In-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) is a catastrophic complication for patients while admitted in a medical institution. The outcome of IHCA remains poor, and understanding of the prognostic factors for survival outcome after IHCA is lacking, specifically in an oriental population. METHODS A retrospective observational cohort study of 382 patients with IHCA who required resuscitation...

Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is a noticeable machining practice among created unconventional machining procedures for intricate, complex profiles in "hard to machine" materials, similar to heat-treated steels, composites, superalloys, ceramics, composites, carbides, and so on. In EDM, the material expulsion of the cathode is accomplished through precise controlled electric discharge (the s...

in the present paper axial distributions of plasma and floating potentials, electron and iondensities and eedf have been measured in the dl region of a hg discharge constriction. an attempt hasbeen made for the resolution of opposing charged layer structures in dl. excitation processes in theconstriction region are studied. using the linearization method for the nonstationary balance equationss...

Dystonia is a movement disorder defined by sustained muscle contractions, causing twisting and repetitive movements and abnormal postures. To understand the abnormalities in pallidal discharge in dystonia, we have analyzed the spontaneous activity of 453 neurons sampled from the internal or external pallidum (GPi or GPe) of 22 patients with dystonia, 140 neurons from 11 patients with Parkinson'...

1) Spontaneous afferent discharges were recorded from nerve fibers dissected from the renal nerves in vivo. 2) Raising the systemic blood pressure by mechanical and chemical means caused an increase in the discharge rate. It decreased with a reduction in the systemic blood pressure by mechanical or reflex means . 3) The time course of the change in the discharge rate has a strong resemblance to...

Na6.24Fe4.88(P2O7)4 is one of the intensively investigated polyanionic compounds and has shown high rate discharge capacity, but its relatively low electronic conductivity hampers the high performance of the batteries. Herein for the first time we report new graphene wrapped Na6.24Fe4.88(P2O7)4 composite nanofibers (NFPO@C@rGO) made from electrospinning for cathodes of SIBs to achieve an even h...
