Improved methods to test the track by measuring functional parameters would benefit horses and jockeys whilst keeping the sport open to innovative track designs.
As a possible mechanism, we hypothesized that the dose-time dependency effect of static stretch might have important implications when measuring functional parameters of the MTU and performance.
The in-depth analysis of genetic control of the CO2 fixation process in response to drought was possible after measuring different functional parameters using complementary techniques, such as gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence, that measure final carbon capacity uptake.
When measuring kidney functional parameters, accurate assessment of biochemical changes in plasma and urine is essential.
Treatment with ALM resulted in a significant and clinically relevant improvement in all measured cardiac functional parameters after 5 hours of observation.
We measured renal functional parameters, serum mediators involved in inflammation, markers of oxidative stress in kidney tissues and outcome of acute renal I/R injury.
Such a technology should possess the following characteristics: (1) noninvasiveness; (2) label-free; (3) fast-acquisition; (4) high-spatial resolution, and (5) capable of measuring multiple functional parameters, such as hemoglobin oxygen saturation (sO2) and blood flow; however, no existing technology satisfies all the above requirements.
Attending the programme was associated with improved scores across all measured psychological and functional parameters.
Seven patients attended a specifically designed, multi-disciplinary, two-week pre-implant programme and showed improved scores across all measured psychological and functional parameters independent of response to subsequent ONS.
In addition to repeated measures of structural and functional parameters of the left ventricle and atrium, measurements of structure and function of the right side of the heart will be performed.
