1. Activation of left atrial receptors by distension balloons at the pulmonary vein-atrial junctions caused an increase in cardiac sympathetic nerve activity, a decrease renal and no change lumbar splenic activity.2. The responses to balloon were abolished vagal blockade neck.3. results provide additional evidence that reflex heart rate following stimulation is mediated selective activation fibres.4. inhibitory effect receptor on activity suggests neural factor, possibly involving...
Objective To assess the gender variations in delay from symptom onset to help seeking, diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis (TB) using DOTS at community level, 10 subdistricts Bangladesh with 2.5 million people under a non-governmental organization's (Building Resources Across Communities, or BRAC) programme for TB control. Design A cross-sectional survey 1000 newly diagnosed pulmonary patients (500 women 500 men). Findings Women, comparison men, had significantly longer mean median...
Abstract Hydrological connectivity between floodplain wetlands and rivers is one of the principal driving mechanisms for diversity, productivity interactions major biota in river–floodplain systems. This article describes a method quantifying flood‐induced overbank using hydrodynamic model (MIKE 21) to calculate timing, duration spatial extent connections several Tully–Murray catchment, north Queensland, Australia. Areal photogrammetry field surveyed stream cross data were used reproduce...
Abstract Surface water connectivity between waterbodies in a river–floodplain system is considered one of the key determinants habitat quality, biodiversity and ecological integrity. This manuscript presents results from an investigation into potential changes floodplain inundation wetlands rivers under projected future climates, large river catchment Western Australia. The study was conducted using two‐dimensional hydrodynamic model (MIKE 21), modelling domain included reaches encompassing...
Understanding the historical and future spatio-temporal changes in climate extremes their potential risk to rice production is crucial for achieving food security Bangladesh. This paper presents results from a study on trend analysis 13 metrics that significantly influence production. The was conducted using non-parametric Mann-Kendall test Theil-Sen slope estimator methods. included data all available weather stations Bangladesh assessment done both wet (May October) dry (November April)...
In chloralose-anesthetized dogs the abdominal circulation was vascularly isolated without opening cavity. The region perfused at constant flow through aorta and drained pressure from inferior vena cava. Changes in resistance were calculated changes perfusion capacitance by integrating venous outflow.

Abstract This study contributes to the comprehensive assessment of flood hazard and risk for Phrae plain Yom River basin in northern Thailand. The was carried out using a hydrologic–hydrodynamic model conjunction with geographic information system (GIS). calibrated verified observed rainfall river data during seasons 1994 2001, respectively. Flooding scenarios were evaluated terms flooding depth events 25-, 50-, 100- 200-year return periods. An impact-based estimation technique applied...
Abstract Enhancing crop production, particularly by growing a in the typically-fallow dry season is key strategy for alleviating poverty Ganges delta region. We used polder water and salt balance model to examine impact of several management, management climate change scenarios on salinity evapotranspiration at Dacope Amtali Bangladesh Gosaba India. A (and unsurprising) finding that very important, two drier sites, Gosaba. Good lowers shallow groundwater, soil storage ponds, leads more...
1. The abdominal circulation of anaesthetized dogs was vascularly isolated without opening the abdomen, by cutting or tying all structures immediately above diaphragm and proximal ends hind limbs. region perfused at constant flow through aorta drained pressure from inferior vena cava. 2. Vascular resistance responses were expressed as changes in perfusion capacitance determined integrating caval outflow. 3. Decreasing carotid sinuses over whole baroreceptor sensitivity range increased mean...
We stimulated the aortic chemoreceptors in dogs that were anesthetized with chloralose and artificially ventilated by perfusing isolated arch venous blood. Inotropic responses determined measuring maximum rate of change left ventricular pressure (dP/dt max) heart held constant. Stimulation resulted an average increase 14 +/- 2.0 beats/min (mean SE) from 166 7.7 dP/dt max 501 85 mm Hg/sec 3508 154 Hg/sec. These changes statistically significant (P less than 0.001). The afferent pathway reflex...
Understanding the nature of frequent floods is important for characterising channel morphology, riparian and aquatic habitat, informing river restoration efforts. This paper presents results from an analysis on frequency estimates low magnitude using annual maximum partial series data compared to actual flood series. Five distribution models were fitted 24 gauging stations in Great Barrier Reef (GBR) lagoon catchments north-eastern Australia. Based goodness fit test, Generalised Extreme...
The shallow tidal and freshwater coastal wetlands adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef lagoon provide a vital nursery feeding complex that supports life cycles of marine fish, important native vegetation bird habitat. Urban agricultural development threaten these wetlands, with many becoming lost or changed due construction artificial barriers (e.g. bunds, roads, culverts floodgates). Infestation by weeds has become major issue within modified (bunded) for ponded pasture growth last century. A...
Drought caused by climate change has significantly increased vegetation vulnerability in Afghanistan during the last decades. This paper investigates response to drought at multiple scales across country based on historical data from 1980 2020. It explores multiscale relationships between as indicated grid-based standardised precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) and condition represented satellite-derived anomaly (VAI). also examines links of dominant land cover with their...
Abstract Tropical floodplain wetlands are among the world's most threatened and poorly documented freshwater ecosystems. This paper describes patterns of fish diversity in remnant lagoons relation to natural environmental gradients impacts agriculture Tully–Murray catchment, Queensland Wet Tropics bioregion (QWT), north‐eastern Australia. Floodplain supported 21 29 native species recorded from habitats these rivers, including three not typically found main river channels or tributaries, six...
Abstract The ecological condition and biodiversity values of floodplain wetlands are highly dependent on the hydrological connectivity to adjacent rivers. This paper describes a method for quantifying between main rivers in wet tropical catchment northern Australia. We used one‐dimensional hydrodynamic model simulate time‐varying water depths across stream network (i.e. rivers, streams man‐made drains). timing duration seven (four natural three artificial) with two were then calculated...
