TL;DR: Benefits of OPCAB in terms of death, MI, and cerebral stroke are significantly related to patient risk profile, suggesting that O PCAB should be strongly considered in high-risk patients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied traveling waves for monotone evolution systems of bistable type and established the existence of traveling wave for discrete and continuous-time semi-low evolution systems.
Abstract: This paper is devoted to the study of traveling waves for monotone evolution systems of bistable type. Under an abstract setting, we establish the existence of bistable traveling waves for discrete and continuous-time monotone semiflows. This result is then extended to the cases of periodic habitat and weak compactness, respectively. We also apply the developed theory to four classes of evolution systems.

TL;DR: This paper presents the practical implementation of a novel fault diagnostic and protection scheme for the interior permanent-magnet (IPM) synchronous motors using wavelet packet transform (WPT) and artificial neural network.
Abstract: This paper presents the practical implementation of a novel fault diagnostic and protection scheme for the interior permanent-magnet (IPM) synchronous motors using wavelet packet transform (WPT) and artificial neural network. In the proposed technique, the line currents of different faulted and normal conditions of the IPM motor are preprocessed by the WPT. The second level WPT coefficients of line currents are used as inputs of a three-layer feedforward neural network. The proposed protection technique is successfully simulated and experimentally tested on the line-fed and inverter-fed IPM motors. The Texas Instrument 32-bit floating-point digital signal processor TMS320C31 is used for the real-time implementation of the proposed protection algorithm. The offline and online test results of both line-fed and inverter-fed IPM motors are given. These test results showed satisfactory performances of the proposed diagnostic and protection technique in terms of speed, accuracy, and reliability.

TL;DR: The results show that cardiac function is unlikely to limit metabolic rate in Atlantic cod from Newfoundland until close to their CTM, and it is suggested that decreased blood oxygen binding capacity may contribute to the plateau in oxygen consumption.
Abstract: SUMMARY For fish to survive large acute temperature increases (i.e. >10.0°C)
that may bring them close to their critical thermal maximum (CTM), oxygen
uptake at the gills and distribution by the cardiovascular system must
increase to match tissue oxygen demand. To examine the effects of an acute
temperature increase (∼1.7°C h-1 to CTM) on the
cardiorespiratory physiology of Atlantic cod, we (1) carried out respirometry
on 10.0°C acclimated fish, while simultaneously measuring in vivo
cardiac parameters using Transonic® probes, and (2) constructed in
vitro oxygen binding curves on whole blood from 7.0°C acclimated cod
at a range of temperatures. Both cardiac output
(Q) and heart rate
(fh) increased until near the fish9s CTM
(22.2±0.2°C), and then declined rapidly. Q10 values for
Q and fh were 2.48
and 2.12, respectively, and increases in both parameters were tightly
correlated with O2 consumption. The haemoglobin (Hb)-oxygen binding
curve at 24.0°C showed pronounced downward and rightward shifts compared
to 20.0°C and 7.0°C, indicating that both binding capacity and
affinity decreased. Further, Hb levels were lower at 24.0°C than at
20.0°C and 7.0°C. This was likely to be due to cell swelling, as
electrophoresis of Hb samples did not suggest protein denaturation, and at
24.0°C Hb samples showed peak absorbance at the expected wavelength (540
nm). Our results show that cardiac function is unlikely to limit metabolic
rate in Atlantic cod from Newfoundland until close to their CTM, and we
suggest that decreased blood oxygen binding capacity may contribute to the
plateau in oxygen consumption.
