Relationship between frequency and amplitude of myocardial contractions in rats adapted to heat

After preliminary adaptation of rats to heat (for 3 h daily at 35°C for 1 month) the amplitude of contractions of the isolated papillary muscles from the left ventricle at 28°C at high frequency was higher than in control animals. This difference persisted at 36°C and disappeared at 25°C. It is postulated that adaptation to heat leaves a definite structural imprint in heart muscle cells.Laboratory of Pathophysiology of the Heart, Institute of General Pathology and Pathological Physiology, Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, Moscow.

Sources of behavioral deviation modeled by early color preferences in quail. III. Developmental stability and normative canalization

Successful artificial selection of quail (C. coturnix japonica) for divergent early approach preferences for, and imprintabilities to, the wavelength characteristics of otherwise identical visual stimuli decreased the trait's developmental stability. The developmental error that resulted from selecting for extreme initial preferences was associated with enhanced imprintabilities. Conversely, the developmental error that resulted from selecting for extreme imprintabilities was associated with enhanced expression of directional gene effects in extreme initial preferences. The data are attributed to selectively relaxed normative canalization of trait development, and to related enhanced expression of genetic, environmental, and stochastic influences in trait deviations.     

Heritabilities,by the multiple abstract variance analysis (MAVA) model and objective test measures,of personality traits U.I.23, capacity to mobilize,U.I.24, anxiety,U.I.26, narcistic ego and U.I.28, asthenia,by maximum-likelihood methods

Heritability coefficients are offered for four personality source traits, measured by the O-A (objective-analytic) 2-h performance battery. Five family constellations covering a total sample of 1221 boys 12–18 years old yielded nine concrete variances which the MAVA (multiple abstract variance analysis) model resolves into seven abstract variances: ² _wg , within family genetic; ² _wt.s , within family threptic; ² _wt.t , within family threptic for twins; ² _bg , between family genetic; _bgbt , correlation of genetic and threptic deviations across families, etc. Maximum likelihood was the method here used for the MAVA analysis. The best fit with maximum parsimony was to assume no genothreptic ( _wgwt , _bgbt ) correlations, but extension to the parsimony of assuming either no genetic or no threptic components gave no fit. The heritabilities found were compared with those from an earlier research and from a different (OSES) method applied to the present data. The agreement is quite good in assigning a moderate heritability value tocapacity to mobilize vs. regression, U.I.23 (H about 0.30), and toanxiety, U.I.24 (H about 0.50); only moderately consistent in assigning a moderateH value toasthenia, U.I.28 (H about 0.30); and poorly consistent in assigning a lowH value tonarcistic ego, U.I.26. It is pointed out (a) that the lowH for U.I.28 fits the theory of the origin of this trait well and (b) that, in view of estimates of the function fluctuation of U.I.23 and 24, a most probable conclusion is that a capacity to mobilize is quitesubstantially innate and a general proneness to anxiety islargely innate.     

The Effects of Feedback Sensory Modality, Feedback Information Content, and Sex on Short-Term Biofeedback Training of Three Responses

In three factorial experiments, auditory vs visual vs tactile feedback, analog feedback vs analog feedback which was anchored, and sex, were varied to assess the effects of these variables on performance in short-term biofeedback training of heart rate reduction, hand temperature increase, and forehead muscle tension reduction. A total of 108 subjects served in the study. Moderate but reliable changes were found during the course of the training session for all three physiological responses. The ability to reduce heart rate in a single training session did not appear to be a function of any of the variables manipulated in this study, but rather could be attributed to adaptation. In both muscle tension and temperature training, however, there were significant interactions between sex and sensory modality of the feedback stimulus and, in the case of muscle tension training, between information content of the feedback signal and sex. The overall pattern of results indicated that performance during biofeedback training is a complicated function of sex and the type of signal used to provide feedback, and that this function is not constant across physiological response systems.     

Role of oxidative stress,angiogenesis and chemo-attractant cytokines in the pathogenesis of ischaemic protection induced by remote ischaemic conditioning: Study of a human model of ischaemia-reperfusion induced vascular injury

Aims

We explored the effect of remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) on endothelial function and on circulating mediators.

Human temperature regulation during cycling with moderate leg ischaemia

The effect of graded ischaemia in the legs on the regulation of body temperature during steady-state exercise was investigated in seven healthy males. It was hypothesised that graded ischaemia in the working muscles increases heat storage within the muscles, which in turn potentiates sweat secretion during exercise. Blood perfusion in the working muscles was reduced by applying a supra-atmospheric pressure (+6.6 kPa) around the legs, which reduced maximal working capacity by 29%. Each subject conducted three separate test trials comprising 30 min of steady-state cycling in a supine position. Exercise with unrestricted blood flow (Control trial) was compared to ischaemic exercise conducted at an identical relative work rate (Relative trial), as well as at an identical absolute work rate (Absolute trial); the latter corresponding to a 20% increase in relative workload. The average (SD) increases in both the rectal and oesophageal temperatures during steady-state cycling was 0.3 (0.2)°C and did not significantly differ between the three trials. The increase in muscle temperature was similar in the Control (2.7 (0.3)°C) and Absolute (2.4 (0.7)°C) trials, but was substantially lower (P<0.01) in the Relative trial (1.4 (0.8)°C). Ischaemia potentiated (P<0.01) sweating on the forehead in the Absolute trial (24.2 (7.3) g m^–2 min^–1) compared to the Control trial (13.4 (6.2) g m^–2 min^–1), concomitant with an attenuated (P<0.05) vasodilatation in the skin during exercise. It is concluded that graded ischaemia in working muscles potentiates the exercise sweating response and attenuates vasodilatation in the skin initiated by increased core temperature, effects which may be attributed to an augmented muscle metaboreflex.     

Prediction of the average skin temperature in warm and hot environments

The prediction of the mean skin temperature used for the Required Sweat Rate index was criticised for not being valid in conditions with high radiation and high humidity. Based on a large database provided by 9 institutes, 1999 data points obtained using steady-state conditions, from 1399 experiments and involving 377 male subjects, were used for the development of a new prediction model. The observed mean skin temperatures ranged from 30.7 °C to 38.6 °C. Experimental conditions included air temperatures (T _a) between 20 and 55 °C, mean radiant temperatures (T _r) up to 145 °C, partial vapour pressures (P _a) from 0.2 to 5.3 kPa, air velocities (v _a) between 0.1 and 2 m/s, and metabolic rates (M) from 102 to 620 W. Rectal temperature (T _re) was included in the models to increase the accuracy of prediction. Separate models were derived for nude (clothing insulation, I_cl, ≤0.2 clo, where 1 clo=0.155 m² · °C · W⁻¹, which is equivalent to the thermal insulation of clothing necessary to maintain a resting subject in comfort in a normally ventilated room, air movement=10 cm/s, at a temperature of 21 °C and a humidity of less than 50%) and clothed (0.6 ≤ I_cl ≤ 1.0 clo) subjects using a multiple linear regression technique with re-sampling (non-parametric bootstrap). The following expressions were obtained for nude and clothed subjects, respectively: T _sk=7.19 + 0.064T _a + 0.061T _r + 0.198P _a− 0.348v _a + 0.616T _re and T _sk=12.17 + 0.020T _a + 0.044T _r + 0.194P _a − 0.253v _a + 0.0029M + 0.513T _re. For the nude and clothed subjects, 83.3% and 81.8%, respectively, of the predicted skin temperatures were within the range of ±1 °C of the observed skin temperatures. It is concluded that the proposed models for the prediction of the mean skin temperature are valid for a wide range of warm and hot ambient conditions in steady-state conditions, including those of high radiation and high humidity.
