Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

The stability of collocation methods for VIDEs of second order

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
Simplest results presented here are the stability criteria of collocation methods for the second-order Volterra integro differential equation (VIDE) by polynomial spline functions. The polynomial spline collocation method is stable if all eigenvalues of

Medical students' initial experiences of the dissection room and interaction with body donors: A qualitative study of professional identity formation, educational benefits, and the experience of Pasifika students

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The first experience of medical students in the dissecting room (DR) likely influences professional identity formation (PIF). Sparse data exist exploring how exposure to the DR and body donors without undertaking dissection influences PIF, or how culture may influence this experience.

Can AI replace humans? Comparing the capabilities of AI tools and human performance in a business management education scenario

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides a comparative assessment of the capabilities of leading artificial intelligence (AI) tools and human participants in a business management education context. Specifically, we (a) assess how well current language models perform in providing answers to standardised essay‐type assessments in a business and management education

An Overrange Collocation Method

Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, 2011
In this paper, a new meshless method called the overrange collocation method (ORCM) is proposed. By introducing some collocation points, which are located at outside of domain of the analyzed body, unsatisfactory issue of the positivity conditions of boundary points in collocation methods can be avoided.

A study on the social integration of international secondary students in Canadian high schools

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on the international secondary students (ISS) is scarce compared with the proliferating literature on their tertiary counterparts. This paper focuses on social integration experiences of ISS from diverse ethnic backgrounds, the undergirding macro‐, meso‐, and micro‐mechanisms, and the supports needed for their successful integration ...

The five‐year itch: Motivational factors that influence the career decisions of early career teachers in England

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Teacher retention in England continues to be in a state of decline, with early career teachers (ECTs) most at risk of leaving the profession. High attrition rates create an unstable and unsustainable workforce, which negatively affects the educational development of young people. The purpose of this paper was to explore the career‐related push
