Multiple mechanisms of spiral wave breakup in a model of cardiac electrical activity

TL;DR: A simplified ionic model of the cardiac action potential (AP), which can be fitted to a wide variety of experimentally and numerically obtained mesoscopic characteristics of cardiac tissue such as AP shape and restitution of AP duration and conduction velocity, is used to explain many different mechanisms of spiral wave breakup which in principle can occur in cardiac tissue as discussed by the authors.

Mechanisms for discordant alternans.

TL;DR: Discordant Alternans Mechanism has the potential to produce larger alternans of the ECG T wave than concordant alternans, but its mechanism is unknown.

Cech and Steenrod Homotopy Theories with Applications to Geometric Topology

TL;DR: The model structure on pro-spaces and the homotopy inverse limit are discussed in this paper, along with the algebraic topology of pro-C and the Steenrod theory on infinite dimensional manifolds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of interleukin‐1β in human breast carcinoma

TL;DR: In this article, the IL-1β content in tissue extracts from >200 invasive breast carcinomas and smaller numbers of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and benign lesions was measured by an enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay and analyzed to determine whether these values were correlated with the contents of scatter factor (SF) (an invasogenic and angiogenic cytokine), von Willebrand's factor (VWF) (a marker of endothelium), thrombospondin-1 (TSP1), and tumor necrosis
