Functional properties of conditioned skeletal muscle: implications for muscle-powered cardiac assist.

 · 1970

Latissimus dorsi (LD) muscles of six canines were studied to assess changes induced by electrical conditioning and to quantify the capacity of these muscles to perform hemodynamic work. Muscles were c…

2-deoxy-D-glucose modulation of T-lymphocyte reactivity: differential effects on lymphoid compartments.

 · 1970

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of glucoprivation, as induced by 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) administration, on lymphocyte mitogen reactivity in Sprague-Dawley rats. The results showed tha…

Integration of posture and movement: contributions of Sherrington, Hess, and Bernstein.

 · 1970

Neural mechanisms that integrate posture with movement are widespread throughout the central nervous system (CNS), and they are recruited in patterns that are both task- and context-dependent. Scienti…

Contrast-to-noise ratios and thickness-normalized, ventilation-dependent signal levels in dark-field and conventional in vivo thorax radiographs of two pigs.

 · 1970

Lung tissue causes significant small-angle X-ray scattering, which can be visualized with grating-based X-ray dark-field imaging. Structural lung diseases alter alveolar microstructure, which often ca…

Brain activation during autobiographical relationship episode narratives: a core conflictual relationship theme approach.

 · 1970

The authors combined the core conflictual relationship theme (CCRT) method and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify brain regions involved in recall of autobiographical relationshi…

Rib cage and diaphragm-abdomen compliance in humans: effects of age and posture.

 · 1970

The influence of age and posture on compliance of the rib cage (Crc) and diaphragm-abdomen (Cab) compartments of the chest wall was studied in 61 healthy adults (33 men, 28 women) aged 24-75 yr. Chest…

MRI-based motion correction of thoracic PET: initial comparison of acquisition protocols and correction strategies suitable for simultaneous PET/MRI systems.

 · 1970

OBJECTIVES: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquired on equipment capable of simultaneous MRI and positron emission tomography (PET) could potentially provide the gold standard method for motion corr…

Modulation of dietary fat on the toxicological effects in thymus and spleen in BALB/c mice exposed to perfluorooctane sulfonate.

 · 1970

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) can cause atrophy of the immune organs in rodents, but the mechanism underlying this action is not completely understood. In this study, BALB/c mice were fed a regular…
