The effects of plasma from normal subjects and chronic schizophrenic patients were determined on the rate of learning a pole jump response in rats. The animals were trained to a buzzer CS and electroshock US. Mean trials to a 90 per cent avoidance criterion were determined using a 100 trial cut off. Plasma and other control solutions were given intraperitoneally in the morning and the procedure...

insulin – like growth factor – i (igf-1) plays a role in the skeletal muscle in the development, growth, repair, and maintenance of the tissues in an autocrine / paracrine as well as endocrine fashion. the aim of the present study was to investigate the response of growth factors to two different training methods. 14 male volunteers were selected and divided randomly into two groups. group a (p...

In this paper jump transitions for the fluid model part in second order fluid stochastic Petri nets (FSPNs) are introduced. The extended formalism is defined, and the underlying partial differential equations are derived. With a jump a certain amount of fluid is added to a fluid place or taken out at once. This amount, the jump height, is sampled from a probability distribution. The dynamics of...

Background. The kinematics of a controlled functional task in female volleyball athletes may be an interesting area of study. Therefore, investigating if there are kinematic changes in a jump landing jump task among female athletes with low back pain (LBP) may help therapists and trainers better prevent and/or rehabilitate LBP in athletes. Objectives. The purpose of this study was to examine l...

Large stock price movements are modeled as jumps in the stochastic processes of stock prices. In the current literature, the jump intensity is typically specified in models as a function of the current diffusive volatility and past jump intensities, while the jump size is assumed to be independent of the jump intensity. We use a nonparametric jump detection test to identify jumps in several sto...

In this article, we consider pair frames in Banach spaces and   introduce Banach pair frames. Some various concepts in the frame theory such as frames, Schauder frames, Banach frames and atomic decompositions are considered as   special kinds of (Banach) pair frames.  Some frame-like inequalities  for (Banach)  pair frames are presented. The elements that participant  in the construction of (Ba...

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the relationship between relative net vertical impulse and jump height in a countermovement jump and static jump performed to varying squat depths. Ten college-aged males with 2 years of jumping experience participated in this investigation (age: 23.3 ± 1.5 years; height: 176.7 ± 4.5 cm; body mass: 84.4 ± 10.1 kg). Subjects performed a series o...

We study sequential programs that are instruction sequences with direct and indirect jump instructions. The intuition is that indirect jump instructions are jump instructions where the position of the instruction to jump to is the content of some memory cell. We consider several kinds of indirect jump instructions. For each kind, we define the meaning of programs with indirect jump instructions...
