Laboratory animals often develop abnormal repetitive (stereotypic) behaviour that can influence both physiology and behavioural test results. Such behaviours usually in suboptimal environment increase over time. To explore the development of stereotypic forms activity night home-cage laboratory mice was analysed collated with open field (OFT), hole-board (HBT) tail suspension (TST) tests twice ...

fixed myocardial defects in both stress and rest images, could be artifactual as a result of soft tissue attenuation. to increase specificity and identify the false positive results, we used gated technique to evaluate the wall motion and wall thickening as an index to differentiate real ischemic lesions from artifactual defects. 93 patients were studied. in 46 patients (48.8%) fixed perfusion ...

With the gradual shift from discipline-based to competency-based medical education, integrated curriculum has become a popular model for connecting basic science and clinical content in undergraduate education. Despite its popularity, there are concerns that important physiological concepts not adequately addressed. We describe spiral integration of physiology 5-week Cardiovascular block our Ho...
