To quantitatively understand how the carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex modifies the Starling curve (i.e., the aortic flow (AF)-mean right atrial pressure (MRAP) relationship), experiments were performed in closed-chest, naturally breathing, and anesthetized dogs before and after vagotomy. Mean aortic pressure (MAP) was fixed at approximately 100 mm Hg and the pressure in the isolated carotid si...

Worldwide, Ischemic heart disease (IHD) affects a large population. Implication of myocardial infarction (MI) and its multiple pathophysiology in cardiac function is well known. Further, isoproterenol (ISP) is known to induce MI. Today, there is an urgent need for effective drug that could limit the myocardial injury. Therapeutic intervention with antioxidants has been shown useful in preventin...

Interactive structured prediction (ISP) is an emerging framework for structured prediction (SP) where the user and the system collaborate to produce a high quality output. Typically, search algorithms applied to ISP problems have been based on the algorithms for fully-automatic SP systems. However, the decision rule applied should not be considered as optimal since the goal in ISP is to reduce ...

Efficient discovery of network topology and routing policy in the Internet by Neil Timothy Spring Co-Chairs of Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor David J. Wetherall Department of Computer Science and Engineering Professor Thomas E. Anderson Department of Computer Science and Engineering Little is known about the structure and configuration of the ISP networks that constitute the Interne...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The present study investigated the relationships between inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins (ISPs) and systolic blood pressure (SBP), as well as the joint long-term effects of ISP and SBP on incidence of stroke. METHODS BP and 5 ISPs (fibrinogen, alpha1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, orosomucoid) were assessed in 6071 healthy men 28 to 61 years of age. All...

Kondisi pandemi memaksa kita untuk mengurangi interaksi dengan orang lain, internet berubah menjadi salah satu kebutuhan pokok, agar dapat melakukan hampir semua kegiatan tanpa harus keluar rumah, mulai dari bekerja, belajar, berbelanja hingga mengatur rapat dan banyak lagi. Namun, warga di Desa Kasiyan Timur Kec. Puger Kab. Jember masih kesulitan mendapatkan murah kecepatan yang baik. Sehingga...

Traditional image signal processing (ISP) pipeline consists of a set cascaded modules onboard camera to reconstruct high-quality sRGB from the sensor raw data. Recently, some methods have been proposed learn convolutional neural network (CNN) improve performance traditional ISP. However, in these works usually CNN is directly trained accomplish ISP tasks without considering much correlation amo...

Motor cortex stimulation has both excitatory and inhibitory effects on ipsilateral muscles. Excitatory effects can be assessed by ipsilateral motor-evoked potentials (iMEPs). Inhibitory effects include an interruption of ipsilateral voluntary muscle activity known as the silent period (iSP) and a reduction in corticospinal excitability evoked by conditioning stimulation of the contralateral mot...

Huge amount of spatial data such as GPS locations is being generated everyday, which brings big challenges of efficient spatial data processing. Many existing big spatial data processing techniques are mostly based on disk-resident systems. They have not fully taken advantages of modern hardware, such as large main memory capacities and multi-core processors. In this paper, we demonstrate our I...
