Under normal, or normoxic, conditions there is an adequate supply of O2to all tissues and cells and respiratorychemoreceptorsare relatively inactive. Thus, under these conditions, ventilatory and cardiac rates are at basal levels. However, once environmental (aquatic, in the case of fish) PO2begi...
However, most individuals' heart rates undergo a circadian pattern predominately due to regulation of the sino-atrial node by the ANS [24]. Slowing of the heart rate is mainly under PNS control, which is most apparent at nighttime. In times of ‘stress’, e.g. during waking or on ...
In cardiovascular health, precision medicine has emerged as a promising paradigm to enable cost-effective solutions that improve quality of life and reduce mortality rates. However, the exact role in precision medicine for human heart modeling has not yet been fully explored. Here, we discuss the ...

Diuretic use is associated with dose-dependent, severe, potentially life-threatening adverse effects. In fact, up-titrating diuretics is associated with worsening renal function, increased hospital admission rates and mortality [17]. Fall risk associated with diuretic use is significantly elevated the fi...
Among other outcomes, males with low heart rates have been discovered—more likely than males with higher RHR—to engage in antisocial criminal behavior. Females with low heart rates are also more likely to engage in antisocial activity; however, fewer females have low RHR. Further, not all ...
even in older cooperative patients, but coping with a restless baby with rapid cardiac and respiratory rates in a noisy nursery is a real trial. Having the child eat or giving him or her a pacifier may help. Hospital stethoscopes frequently are of poor quality, so find and use a good one...
For in hospital mortality rate, we utilized a structured data field in the EHR; actual mortality rates are almost certainly higher. The names chosen for the different clusters reflect the significantly overrepresented complaints and in the respective cluster, as well as the descriptive statistics for...
A small-areas variation analysis of suspected acute ischemic heart disease (AIHD) admissions in Michigan was performed, and two demographically nearly identical towns differing by a factor of three in AIHD admission rates were selected. Medical records of all patients evaluated in the emergency ...
