INTRODUCTION Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is often used to treat out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients who also often simultaneously receive insulin for stress-induced hyperglycaemia. However, the impact of TH on systemic metabolism and insulin resistance in critical illness is unknown. This study analyses the impact of TH on metabolism, including the evolution of insulin sensitivity (...

What happens to color emotion responses when texture is added to color samples? To quantify this we performed an experiment in which subjects ordered samples (displayed on a computer monitor) along four scales: Warm-Cool, MasculineFeminine, Hard-Soft and Heavy-Light. Three sample types were used: uniform color, grayscale textures and color textures. Ten subjects arranged 315 samples (105 per sa...

the effects of different stages of maturity (mature green, until 20 to 40% of change in color), two treatments of cool water (5 ?c for 5' and 10 ?c for 15min.), two treatments of hot water (50 ?c for 15 min. and 55 ?c for 5 min.) ), two temperatures (10 and 14 °c) of storage vs. six time periods (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 days) on shelf life and storage time of ‘langra’ mango fruit were stud...

One of the mainly popular consumed colloid protein materials in pharmaceutics, medical, food and military industries is Gelatin. Especially from warm-water fish gelatin report poss similar characteristics to mammalian’s gelatin .Yellow fin tuna (Thunnus albacares) gelatin skin, lots of waste in form of skin and bones of the fish are produced every day. Analysis factors were extracted alkaline g...

The brown dwarf Gliese 229B has an observable atmosphere too warm to contain ice clouds like those on Jupiter and too cool to contain silicate clouds like those on low-mass stars. These unique conditions permit visibility to higher pressures than possible in cool stars or planets. Gliese 229B's 0.85- to 1.0-micrometer spectrum indicates particulates deep in the atmosphere (10 to 50 bars) having...

OBJECTIVE It has been reported that working and learning efficiency might be increased through artificially controlling the color temperature and brightness of light. However, the neurological bases of these outcomes are not well established. Our study was designed to observe whether electroencephalogram (EEG) alpha frequency, as a candidate biological marker, demonstrates significant changes i...

Now days, turf management has encountered with water deficit, mostly due to low precipitation also industrial, agricultural and household demand and consumption. So, the objective of this project was to identify drought tolerance of warm and cool season turfgrass cultivars to different levels of regulated-deficit irrigation. The field experiment was set out in a split-plot based on completely r...

We used a canine model of airway reactivity to examine the role of airway heat flux in the response to dry air challenge. Airflow-induced bronchospasm (AIB) was assessed by measuring collateral system resistance (Rcs) with a wedged bronchoscope technique in anaesthetized mechanically ventilated dogs. We manipulate post-challenge airway heat flux by exposing peripheral airways to cool dry air (2...
