In the present study, we sought to investigate the effects of differing inotropic conditions on regional myocardial function in ischaemic segments. In an experimental pig model ( n =11), the regional deformation parameters peak systolic strain rate [SR(SYS) (peak velocity of thickening)], systolic strain [epsilon(SYS) (systolic wall thickening)] and post-systolic strain [epsilon(PST) (ongoing w...

The anthropogenic consequences of renewable and non-renewable energy consumption, economic growth, air transport have been assessed enormously in the literature. However, given complexities many economies world today, it is important to reassess ecological concerns these factors light Environmental Kuznets Curve framework. Therefore, this current study investigates global assessment using data ...

Spatial abilities involved in reasoning with diagrams have been assessed using tests supposed to require mental rotation (cube figures of the Vandenberg & Kruse). However, Hegarty (2010) described alternative strategies: Mental rotation is not always used; analytical strategies can be used instead. In this study, we compared three groups of participants in three external formats of presentation...
