this study aims to better understand the effect of practice schedule and feedback providing types. in two separate experiments the contextual interference effect in bandwidth and self-control feedback conditions on relative and absolute timing learning was examined. in experiment i, the effect of contextual interference using bandwidth and self-control feedback on absolute timing learning (para...

At partial load, traditional automotive gasoline engines have high pumping losses due to the throttling of intake charge for load control. Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and introduction externally cooled EGR could reduce but only with a very limited effect. On other hand, in medium full range, engine cannot utilize compression ratio limitations knocking. A variable displacement, device which util...

The effect of mitral valve closure on left ventricular filling time and its relation to the onset of systole were assessed from mitral valve echocardiograms and simultaneous apex cardiograms in 21 normal subjects, 11 patients with left bundle branch block, and 19 patients with VDD pacemakers programmed for atrioventricular intervals of 50, 150, and 250 ms. The interval between the electrocardio...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The introduction of Duke's criteria and the improvement of imaging methods has lead to an earlier and a more accurate diagnosis of infectious endocarditis (IE). The options for the best therapeutic approach and the timing of surgery are still a matter of debate and require a close colaboration between the cardiologist, the infectionist and the cardiac surgeon. METHODS We u...
