Resumo: Neste trabalho, provamos dois resultados sobre propriedades homológicas de grupos pro-p. O primeiro responde positivamente à conjectura de J. King que afirma que, se G é um grupo pro-p metabeliano finitamente gerado e m um inteiro positivo, então G mergulha como subgrupo fechado em um grupo pro-p metabeliano de tipo homológico F Pm. O segundo resultado caracteriza módulos pro-p B de tipo homológico F P m sobre [[ZpG]], onde G é um grupo pro-p metabeliano topologicamente finitamente gerado, dado pela extensão de um grupo pro-p abeliano A por um grupo pro-p abeliano Q, e B é um [[ZpQ]]-módulo pro-p finitamente gerado que é visto como um [[ZpG]]-módulo pro-p via a projeção de G -t Q. A caracterização é dada em termos do invariante para grupos pro-p metabelianos introduzido por J. King [15] e é uma generalização do caso onde B = Zp é o anel de inteiros p-ádicos considerado como G-módulo trivial, que dá a classificação dos grupos pro-p metabelianos de tipo homológico FPm, provado por D. Kochloukova [18]
Abstract: In this work, we prove two results about homological properties of metabelian pro-p groups. The first one answers positively a conjecture suggested by J. King that, if G is a finitely generated metabelian pro-p group and m a positive integer, G embeds in a metabelian pro-p group of homological type F P m. The second result caracterize the modules B of homological type F P mover [[ZpG]], where G is a topologically finitely generated metabelian pro-p group that is an extension of A by Q, with A and Q abelian, and B is a finitely generated pro-p [[ZpQ]]-module that is viewed as a pro-p [[ZpG]]-module via the projection G -f Q. The characterization is given in terms of the invariant introduced by J. King [15] and is a generalization of the case when B = Zp is considered as a trivial [[ZpG]]-module, that gives the classification of metabelian pro-p groups of type FPm, proved by D.

Resumo: Neste trabalho estuda-se os principais resultados dados por J. Wilson no artigo "Finite Presentations of Pro-p Groups and Discrete Groups", relacionados à Desigualdade de Golod-¿afarevi? para uma ampla classe de grupos pro-p e abstratos infinitos. Apresentamos a teoria básica de grupos livres abstratos, levando à noção de apresentação de grupos, com foco em apresentações finitas. É feito um estudo sobre grupos profinitos, particularmente no caso pro-p. Abrange-se definições, propriedades algébricas e topológicas básicas, bem como o caso de finitos geradores com o subgrupo de Frattini, e conceitos de completamentos, de grupos pro-p livres, de apresentações de grupos pro-p e de álgebras de grupo completas. No capítulo final estudamos os resultados principais para grupos pro-p e abstratos finitamente apresentáveis, que incluem grupos solúveis e implicações na estrutura de certos grupos satisfazendo a Desigualdade. Os anexos relacionam a teoria aqui apresentada a grupos pro-p de posto finito e homologia e cohomologia de grupos pro-p
Abstract: In this work we study the main results presented by J. Wilson in his paper "Finite Presentations of Pro-p Groups and Discrete Groups", which extend the Golod-¿afarevi? Inequality to a large class of infinite pro-p and abstract groups. In the first chapter we present the basic theory of abstract free groups, focusing on finite presentations. Next we study profinite groups, with focus on pro-p groups. This study ranges from definitions to basic algebraic and topological properties, as well as the cases of finitely generated groups and the Frattini subgroup, and notions of completion, free pro-p groups, presentations of pro-p groups and completed group algebras. In the last chapter we study the main results regarding finite presentations of pro-p and abstract groups, which include soluble groups and implications on the structure of certain groups for which the Inequality holds. In the appendixes we briefly relate the presented theory to pro-p groups of finite rank and homology and cohomology of pro-p groups

Abstract:
A profinite group G is just infinite if it is infinite and every non- trivial closed normal subgroup of G is open, and hereditarily just infinite if every open subgroup is just infinite. Hereditarily just infinite profinite groups that are not virtually pro-p were first described by J. S. Wilson, in his recent paper 'Large hereditarily just infinite groups', in 2010. These profinite groups are inverse limits of finite groups that arc iterated wreath products. The iterated wreath products are constructed from finite non-abelian simple groups, using two types of transitive actions; one of which is specified and the other is left unspecified.

Full text
Abstract:
The 2-groups of coclass 1 are widely known and James (in 1975) looked at the 2-groups of coclass 2. Development of the p-group generation algorithm implemented by O'Brien at ANU enabled group presentations to be provided for the 2-groups of coclass 3 by Newman and O'Brien for groups of order up to 223. Newman and O'Brien (in 1999) conjectured the number of descendants of 2n for all n. They introduced the concept of a family, with each family related to a different pro-p-group and the concept of a sporadic p-group, a p-group external to any family. They found 1782 sporadic 2-groups with order at most 214. The 70 families of 2-groups of coclass 3 can be further split according to their period, a measure of the repetitive structure of the families. Newman and O'Brien conjectured that these families had periods of 1, 2 or 4. This thesis examines the 2-groups of coclass 3 contained in families with period 1 and shows that the number of descendants conjectured by Newman and O'Brien is correct. Furthermore the presentation of all groups contained in period 1 families is provided and shown to be correct.

Abstract:
Defibrotide (D) is an extractive polydesoxyribonucleotide. In preclinical studies the product was shown to be active as a pro -fibrinolytic, antithrombotic and thrombolytic agent while comply tely devoid of anticoagulant activity. In animal models, D was found to afford striking protection from the effects of acute lethal and non lethal myocardial ischemia as well as from myo -cardial injury following reperfusion. In this open single - blim trial, D was administered to patients with acute myocardial infaj ction (AMI) for the prevention of complicating arrhythmias; throy bus formation, pericarditis, etc.Sixty patients with AMI were divided randomly into two groups of 30 patients each. One group was treated with D by 6-hour drip infusion for 3 consecutive days (2.8 g on the first day, then 2.4 g daily). The other group was treated with equal volumes of physiological salt solution. All patients received conventional trea_t ment for AMI. The two trial groups were sufficiently homogeneous in terms of AMI type, age and sex distribution, PCT, Forrester index, Holter, and Peel index. D treatment proved effective in reducing the incidence of severe arrhythmia (p < 0.05), thrombus formation (p < 0.05), and pericarditis (p < 0.01). CPK, TT and PTT readings were not modified by the treatment; the incidence of post-AMI angina and the number of deaths (4 in each group) were similar in the two groups. The results of this pilot study are encouraging; further clinical trials are currently in progress to assess D activity in larger groups of patients treated with the product at higher dosages.

Abstract:
The role of the preparation is to ensure the optimal development of handball specific motor skills and effort capacity - it is the foundation to increase the performance capacity. The sports training components are present in all stages of sports training with different shares depending on the objectives. A good physical training provides the motrical support for efficient execution of technical content, which in turn is necessary for the realization of the tactical actions. Psychological and theoretical components, along with other components, provide training valorization to successfully participate in competitions. The purpose of this research is to identify the role of specialized software in monitoring the sport preparation to lead to optimizing sport training for junior handball players with consequences of increasing / improving sports performance. The experimental investigation involved the use of specific research methods like the study of literature, observation, tests and control samples, experiment, statistical and mathematical analysis and interpretation of data, graphics. In conducting this research there have been used the following control tests that were applied to the subjects of the two groups by the Myotest device and analyzed after with Myotest PRO software. The control tests were designed to highlight the specific indicators of the preparation for the handball game: bench press, half squat, jump-pliometry, countermovement jump, squat jump, bench press profile, half squat profile. These control tests were applied three times during the research (initial test, intermediate test, final test). The average progress for experimental group was 16.88% (min. - 3.66%, max. - 17.99%) and for control group - 8.17% (min. - 1.73%, max. - 12.5%). After applying Student test for experimental group the values were between 4.19 and 9.19 (p<0.01) and for control group between 2.93 and 4.27 (p<0.01). The research has great practical significance in preparing junior handball players, by using electronic device and specialized software, being useful for handball coaches and teachers working at this level, due to the results of the experiment implementation. The purpose was to ensure the premises achieving effective training in order to meet the training objectives and the performance targets.

Abstract:
70 patients were randomized to 3 groups. Group I : patients received 5,000 IU calciparineR subcutaneously given 2h before operation, twice a day for 3 days and then, doses were adjusted ty heparin levels. Groups II and III : 2,500 IU Kabi 2165 were given instead of calciparineR, but in group III, a single daily dose of 5,000 IU Kabi 2165 was administered from the third day. Fibrino-peptide A (FPA), FPA generation, D-dimers were measured in plasma by ELISA methods. Anti Xa activity, Xa generation, heparin cofactor II (HC II), antithrombin III (AT III) were assayed in plasma using amidolytic methods. Serial measurements were done : pre-operatively, 2 and 8h after the first heparin injection and on the 7th post-operative day, before heparin administration. Pre-operatively, the mean level of D-dimers was higher (p<0.05) in 9 patients with bleeding complications after surgery (0.83 ± 0.57 pg/ml) compared to other patients (0.42 ± 0.33 pg/ml) 2h after heparin injection : 1) Xa activity was lower (p<0.001) in group I (<0.05 IU/ml) than in groups II and III (0.137 ± 0.1 IU/ml) ; 2) inhibition of Xa generation decreased (p<0.001) in group I (11.7 ± 8%) compared to that in groups II and III (25.8 ± 13%) ; 3) inhibition of FPA generation was lower (p<0.05) in group I (27.1 ± 32.2%) than in groups II and III (45.7 ± 29.2%) ; 4) diminution of D-dimers under heparin (0.37 ± 0.28 pg/ml) was only significant (p<0.05) in groups II and III. 8h after the first heparin injection, in all groups : 1) D-dimers increased (p<0.001) compared to pre-operative values ; 2) AT III and HC II diminished (p<0.001) ; 3) no anti Xa activity and no inhibition of Xa and FPA generation were found. On the 7th day : 1) 4 patiertts with deep vein thrombosis had higher FPA than other patients ; 2) AT III but not HC II fell in group I (p<0.05) ; 3) no anti Xa activity and no inhibition of Xa and FPA generation were observed in all groups. In conclusion : 1) although clinical results are similar in the 3 groups, Xa activity, Xa generation, FPA generation change differently according to the heparin used ; 2) the occurence of deep vein thrombosis is followed by an FPA increase and bleeding complications are correlated with a high level of pre-operative D-dimers.

Abstract:
Thirty-four patients with acute myocardial infarction were treated prospectively using a new strategy of pre-hospital intravenous streptokinase given by a physician-operated mobile intensive care unit. Prehospital treated patients who had experienced no previous myocardial infarction were compared to a similar group treated with streptokinase in-hospital. All patients underwent cardiac catheterization on day 6.Patients receiving streptokinase in the pre-hospital phase of acute myocardial infarction had smaller infarcts and better residual myocardial function than the group given streptokinase in-hospital in terms of peak creatine phosphokinase (900 v.1298 IU, p=0.023), ejection fraction (62 v. 55%, p=0,004), computer-derived dysfunction index (427 v. 727, p=0.003), and electrocardiographic QRS score (4.1 v. 6.4, p=0.001). The only difference between these groups at baseline was the duration of pain prior to initiation of streptokinase therapy (1.0 ± 0.4 hours vs. 1.9 ± 0.9 hours). There were no major complications related to pre-hospital administration of streptokinase.Pre-hospital stretokinase infusion is feasible, safe and practical. It reduces ischemia time because treatment is not delayed until hospital arrival and therapy limits infarct size. Thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction can be initiated at home and should not be limited to hospitalized patients.

Full text
Abstract:
The aero-engine design process is highly iterative, multidisciplinary in nature and complex. The success of any engine design depends on best exploiting and considering the interactions among the numerous traditional engineering disciplines such as aerodynamics and structures. More emphasis has been placed lately on system integration, cross disciplines leveraging of tools and multi-disciplinary-optimization at the preliminary design phase. This paper investigates the automation of the airfoil generation process, referred to as Rapid Airfoil 3D (RAF 3D), for uncooled high pressure turbine blades at the preliminary design phase. This Matlab based program, uses the turbine aero meanline (TAML) in parallel with a database of previously designed P&WC airfoils, in-house design rules and best practices to define a pre-detailed airfoil shape which can be fed back to other analytical groups for pre-detail analyses, such as for structures and vibrations. Resulting airfoil shapes have been aerodynamically validated using an in-house 3D RANS code. RAF 3D will shorten the turnaround time for P&WC’s turbine aerodynamics group to provide a preliminary 3D airfoil shape to turbine structures group by up to a factor of ten. Additionally, the preliminary assessments of stress and vibration specialists will be more accurate as their assessments will be based on an airfoil that has had inputs from all functional groups even though it is “first pass” design.

Abstract:
The aim of this study has been to investigate the reliability of platelet aggregation in whole blood in some clinical conditions associated to thromboembolic complications.18 healthy subjects, 15 patients affected by ischemic heart disease (IHD) and 15 patients affected by insulin independent diabetes, free of vascular complications, were studied. Collagen induced (2.5 mg/L f.c.) platelet aggregation was evaluated both in whole blood (WB) by using impedance whole blood aggregometer (Chrono-Log) and in platelet rich plasma (PRP) by Born aggregometer. Aggregation was significantly higher in whole blood than in PRP in all the groups investigated (p < 0.01). No significant difference was found in PRP aggregation among the three groups, whereas WB aggregation was significantly higher in the two patient groups (IHD 79.5 + 14.2%, Diabetes 81.3 + 17.6%) than in controls (64.8 ± 14.1%) (p < 0.01 for both comparisons). No relationship was found between WB aggregation and Hct or platelet number in any of the groups studied. A slight relationship was found between megathrombocyte count and WE aggregation values (r=0.31, p < 0.05).Collagen platelet aggregation in WB seems to be provided with higher sensibility than PRP aggregation in detecting hyper-aggregability, probably because it does not imply the selection of platelet populations with loss of larger platelets and of other blood cells.

Abstract:
Background: Malnutrition is estimated to account for more than one third of all child deaths, although it is rarely listed as a direct cause. Hypnoparenting is an attempt by parents to bring their children into the subconscious. This study aimed to determine the effect of hypnoparenting on nutritional status in preschool age children at Al-Fathir kindergarten, Tangerang, Banten. Subjects and Method: This was a quasi-experiment with a non-randomized pretest posttest design was conducted at Al-Fathir Kindergarten, Tangerang City, Banten Province from April to August 2020. A sample of 36 selected by purposive sampling. This study was divided into 2 groups: (1) 18 respondents were given hypnoparenting treatment and for the second group; and (2) 18 respondents were not given hypnoparenting. The dependent variable was nutritional. The independent was hypnoparenting. The data were analyzed by non-parametric tests. Results: There was a significant difference between nutritional status before hypnoparenting (p= 0.293) and nutritional status after hypnoparenting (p= 0.406) but there was no effect between changes in nutritional status made in the intervention group (Mean= 16.25; SD= 2.46; p= 0.222) and the control group (Mean= 16.18; SD= 3.88; p= 0.150). Conclusion: Hypnoparenting has effect in nutritional status of preschool age children, but it is statistically non-significant. Next, researchers will conduct further research on overcoming problems in children, especially nutritional problems, and the parents/guardians of students to be more effective in doing hypnoparenting to be maximized.

Abstract:
Reproductive failure associated with heat stress is a well known phenomenon in avian species. Increased prolactin (PRL) levels in response to heat stress have been suggested as a mechanism involved in this reproductive malfunction. To test this hypothesis, laying female turkeys were subjected to 40°C for 12 h during the photo-phase daily or maintained at 24–26°C. Birds in each group received oral treatment with parachlorophenyalanine (PCPA; 50 mg/kg BW/day for 3 days), an inhibitor of serotonin (5-HT) biosynthesis; or immunized against vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). Both treatments are known to reduce circulating PRL levels. Non treated birds were included as controls. In the control group, high ambient temperature terminated egg laying, induced ovarian regression, reduced plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) and ovarian steroids (progesterone, testosterone, estradiol) levels, and increased plasma PRL levels and the incidence of incubation behavior. Pretreatment with PCPA reduced (P< 0.05) heat stress-induced decline in egg production, increase in PRL levels, and expression of incubation behavior. Plasma LH and ovarian steroid levels of heat stressed birds were restored to that of controls by PCPA treatment. As in PCPA-treated birds, VIP immunoneutralization of heat-stressed turkeys reduced (P< 0.05) circulating PRL levels and prevented the expression of incubation behavior. But it did not restore the decline in LH, ovarian steroids, and egg production (P> 0.05). The present findings indicate that the detrimental effect of high temperature on reproductive performance may not be related to the elevated PRL levels in heat-stressed birds but to mechanism(s) that involve 5-HT neurotransmission and the induction of hyperthermia.

Abstract:
This report is one of a series of reports documenting the methods and findings of a multi-year, multi-disciplinary project coordinated by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) and funded by the California Earthquake Authority (CEA). The overall project is titled “Quantifying the Performance of Retrofit of Cripple Walls and Sill Anchorage in Single-Family Wood-Frame Buildings,” henceforth referred to as the “PEER–CEA Project.” The overall objective of the PEER–CEA Project is to provide scientifically based information (e.g., testing, analysis, and resulting loss models) that measures and documents seismic performance of wood-frame houses with cripple wall and sill anchorage deficiencies as well as retrofitted conditions that address those deficiencies. Three primary tasks support the earthquake loss-modeling effort. They are: (1) the development of ground motions and loading protocols that accurately represent the diversity of seismic hazard in California; (2) the execution of a suite of quasi-static cyclic experiments to measure and document the performance of cripple wall and sill anchorage deficiencies to develop and populate loss models; and (3) nonlinear response history analysis on cripple wall-supported buildings and their components. This report is a product of Working Group 4: Testing, whose central focus was to experimentally investigate the seismic performance of retrofitted and existing cripple walls. This present report focuses on non-stucco or “dry” exterior finishes. Paralleled by a large-component test program conducted at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) [Cobeen et al. 2020], the present report involves two of multiple phases of small-component tests conducted at University of California San Diego (UC San Diego). Details representative of era-specific construction–specifically the most vulnerable pre-1960s construction–are of predominant focus in the present effort. Parameters examined are cripple wall height, finish style, gravity load, boundary conditions, anchorage, and deterioration. This report addresses all eight specimens in the second phase of testing and three of the six specimens in the fourth phase of testing. Although conducted in different testing phases, their results are combined here to co-locate observations regarding the behavior of all dry finished specimens. Experiments involved imposition of combined vertical loading and quasi-static reversed cyclic lateral load onto eleven cripple walls. Each specimen was 12 ft in length and 2-ft or 6-ft in height. All specimens in this report were constructed with the same boundary conditions on the top, bottom, and corners of the walls. Parameters addressed in this report include: dry exterior finish type (shiplap horizontal lumber siding, shiplap horizontal lumber siding over diagonal lumber sheathing, and T1-11 wood structural panels), cripple wall height, vertical load, and the retrofitted condition. Details of the test specimens, testing protocol (including instrumentation), and measured as well as physical observations are summarized. Results from these experiments are intended to support advancement of numerical modeling tools, which ultimately will inform seismic loss models capable of quantifying the reduction of loss achieved by applying state-of-practice retrofit methods as identified in FEMA P-1100 Vulnerability-Base Seismic Assessment and Retrofit of One- and Two-Family Dwellings.

Tasks that support and inform the loss-modeling effort are: (1) collecting and summarizing existing information and results of previous research on the performance of wood-frame houses; (2) identifying construction features to characterize alternative variants of wood-frame houses; (3) characterizing earthquake hazard and ground motions at representative sites in California; (4) developing cyclic loading protocols and conducting laboratory tests of cripple wall panels, wood-frame wall subassemblies, and sill anchorages to measure and document their response (strength and stiffness) under cyclic loading; and (5) the computer modeling, simulations, and the development of loss models as informed by a workshop with claims adjustors. This report is a product of Working Group 4: Testing and focuses on the first phase of an experimental investigation to study the seismic performance of retrofitted and existing cripple walls with sill anchorage. Paralleled by a large-component test program conducted at the University of California [Cobeen et al. 2020], the present study involves the first of multiple phases of small-component tests conducted at the UC San Diego. Details representative of era-specific construction, specifically the most vulnerable pre-1960s construction, are of predominant focus in the present effort. Parameters examined are cripple wall height, finish materials, gravity load, boundary conditions, anchorage, and deterioration. This report addresses the first phase of testing, which consisted of six specimens. Phase 1 including quasi-static reversed cyclic lateral load testing of six 12-ft-long, 2-ft high cripple walls. All specimens in this phase were finished on their exterior with stucco over horizontal sheathing (referred to as a “wet” finish), a finish noted to be common of dwellings built in California before 1945. Parameters addressed in this first phase include: boundary conditions on the top, bottom, and corners of the walls, attachment of the sill to the foundation, and the retrofitted condition. Details of the test specimens, testing protocol, instrumentation; and measured as well as physical observations are summarized in this report. In addition, this report discusses the rationale and scope of subsequent small-component test phases. Companion reports present these test phases considering, amongst other variables, the impacts of dry finishes and cripple wall height (Phases 2–4). Results from these experiments are intended to provide an experimental basis to support numerical modeling used to develop loss models, which are intended to quantify the reduction of loss achieved by applying state-of-practice retrofit methods as identified in FEMA P-1100, Vulnerability-Base Seismic Assessment and Retrofit of One- and Two-Family Dwellings.

Integrated Approach to Evaluating Inherited Predictors of Resistance to Pulmonary Hypertension Syndrome (Ascites) in Fast Growing Broiler Chickens. United States Department of Agriculture, December 2000. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2000.7575287.bard.

Abstract:
Background PHS (pulmonary hypertension syndrome, ascites syndrome) is a serious cause of loss in the broiler industry, and is a prime example of an undesirable side effect of successful genetic development that may be deleteriously manifested by factors in the environment of growing broilers. Basically, continuous and pinpointed selection for rapid growth in broilers has led to higher oxygen demand and consequently to more frequent manifestation of an inherent potential cardiopulmonary incapability to sufficiently oxygenate the arterial blood. The multifaceted causes and modifiers of PHS make research into finding solutions to the syndrome a complex and multi threaded challenge. This research used several directions to better understand the development of PHS and to probe possible means of achieving a goal of monitoring and increasing resistance to the syndrome. Research Objectives (1) To evaluate the growth dynamics of individuals within breeding stocks and their correlation with individual susceptibility or resistance to PHS; (2) To compile data on diagnostic indices found in this work to be predictive for PHS, during exposure to experimental protocols known to trigger PHS; (3) To conduct detailed physiological evaluations of cardiopulmonary function in broilers; (4) To compile data on growth dynamics and other diagnostic indices in existing lines selected for susceptibility or resistance to PHS; (5) To integrate growth dynamics and other diagnostic data within appropriate statistical procedures to provide geneticists with predictive indices that characterize resistance or susceptibility to PHS. Revisions In the first year, the US team acquired the costly Peckode weigh platform / individual bird I.D. system that was to provide the continuous (several times each day), automated weighing of birds, for a comprehensive monitoring of growth dynamics. However, data generated were found to be inaccurate and irreproducible, so making its use implausible. Henceforth, weighing was manual, this highly labor intensive work precluding some of the original objectives of using such a strategy of growth dynamics in selection procedures involving thousands of birds. Major conclusions, solutions, achievements 1. Healthy broilers were found to have greater oscillations in growth velocity and acceleration than PHS susceptible birds. This proved the scientific validity of our original hypothesis that such differences occur. 2. Growth rate in the first week is higher in PHS-susceptible than in PHS-resistant chicks. Artificial neural network accurately distinguished differences between the two groups based on growth patterns in this period. 3. In the US, the unilateral pulmonary occlusion technique was used in collaboration with a major broiler breeding company to create a commercial broiler line that is highly resistant to PHS induced by fast growth and low ambient temperatures. 4. In Israel, lines were obtained by genetic selection on PHS mortality after cold exposure in a dam-line population comprising of 85 sire families. The wide range of PHS incidence per family (0-50%), high heritability (about 0.6), and the results in cold challenged progeny, suggested a highly effective and relatively easy means for selection for PHS resistance 5. The best minimally-invasive diagnostic indices for prediction of PHS resistance were found to be oximetry, hematocrit values, heart rate and electrocardiographic (ECG) lead II waves. Some differences in results were found between the US and Israeli teams, probably reflecting genetic differences in the broiler strains used in the two countries. For instance the US team found the S wave amplitude to predict PHS susceptibility well, whereas the Israeli team found the P wave amplitude to be a better valid predictor. 6. Comprehensive physiological studies further increased knowledge on the development of PHS cardiopulmonary characteristics of pre-ascitic birds, pulmonary arterial wedge pressures, hypotension/kidney response, pulmonary hemodynamic responses to vasoactive mediators were all examined in depth. Implications, scientific and agricultural Substantial progress has been made in understanding the genetic and environmental factors involved in PHS, and their interaction. The two teams each successfully developed different selection programs, by surgical means and by divergent selection under cold challenge. Monitoring of the progress and success of the programs was done be using the in-depth estimations that this research engendered on the reliability and value of non-invasive predictive parameters. These findings helped corroborate the validity of practical means to improve PHT resistance by research-based programs of selection.
