Myocardial Architecture and Patient Variability in Clinical Patterns of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
, 2016 Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke by a factor of four to five and is the most common abnormal heart rhythm. The progression of AF with age, from short self-terminating episodes to persistence, varies between individuals and is poorly ...

The cerebellum could solve the motor error problem through error increase prediction [PDF]
, 2015 We present a cerebellar architecture with two main characteristics. The first one is that complex spikes respond to increases in sensory errors. The second one is that cerebellar modules associate particular contexts where errors have increased in the ...

Muscle Architecture and its Relationship to Muscle Circulation
International Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2005 Muscle contraction mechanically changes vessel geometry and consequently muscle circulation. Lengthening of muscle fiber straightens capillary tortuosity and further increase in muscle fiber length reduces blood flow by extending the capillary while reducing its diameter.
