Objective: The physiological-induced conductive response has been visualised for evaluation in specific muscle compartments under hybrid ( EMS) of electrical stimulation (EMS) and voluntary resistance training (VRT) by impedance tomography (EIT). Methods: In the experiments, tendency conductivity distribution images σ over time was clearly detected three compartments, which are called AM 1 comp...

Virtual reality (VR) describes a family of technologies which immerse users in sensorily-stimulating virtual environments. Such have increasingly found applications the treatment neurological and mental health disorders. Depression, anxiety, other mood abnormalities are concern growing older population—especially those who reside long-term care facilities (LTCFs). The transition from familiar h...

Vibration–rotation–tunneling ~VRT! spectroscopy has been extended to the 4 THz spectral region through the observation of a second intermolecular vibration of (D2O)4 . Analysis of the precisely measured perpendicular transition confirms the previously reported cyclic homodromic structure and reveals a dramatically increased ~303! hydrogen bond rearrangement rate in the excited state. © 1999 Ame...

In this paper a collection of prototype applications developed by VRT –as part of the ICoSOLE project– are described: Moments, Trademark and the Wall. Together, they form the The Wall of Moments. The aim is to collect valuable usergenerated content, in order to create a near-to live immersive experience for event visitors as well as people who can’t attend an event. Author

We tested the hypothesis that the magnitude of the pregnancy-induced increase in exercise hyperpnea is predictable based on the level at which Pa CO2 is regulated at rest. We performed a detailed retrospective analysis of previous data from 25 healthy young women who performed exercise and rebreathing tests in the third trimester (TM(3); 36.5+/-0.2 weeks gestation; mean+/-SEM) and again 20.4+/-...

Sleepiness is the condition where for some reason fails to go into a sleep state and will have difficulty in remaining awake even while carrying out activities. Sleep restriction occurs when an individual fails to get enough sleep due to high work demands. The mechanism between sleep restriction and underlying brain physiology deficits is not well assumed. The objective of the present study was...

In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the protein product of the gene defective in cystic fibrosis (CF), plays a crucial role in fluid accumulation, which promotes cyst swelling. Several studies have identified individuals afflicted by both ADPKD and CF. Two studies suggested that CF mutations might attenuate the sev...

INTRODUCTION Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is an adjunctive method of chronic venous disease (CVD) therapy. Evaluation of the change at the clinical stage, hemodynamic parameters and quality of life (QoL) following venous system surgery in CVD patients undergoing MLD preoperatively are the most interesting aspects of the study. MATERIAL AND METHODS The CVD patients qualified for elective su...

A GaN Reverse-Conducting HEMT (RC-HEMT) is proposed and fabricated on the GaN/AlGaN/GaN platform. It features an integrated Schottky barrier diode (SBD) to realize reverse conduction double-heterojunction enhance breakdown voltage (BV). Compared with inherent capability of conventional (Con. HEMT), built-in SBD exhibits a low turn-on (VRT) its VRT independent threshold gate bias. At off-state, ...
