  2. Bowditch effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowditch_effect

    Positive Bowditch effect causes an increase in cardiac output due to the increased force of contraction of heart muscles. [7]This phenomenon is usually absent or even reversed (negative Bowditch effect) in heart failure and other diseases of heart, such as cardiomyopathy and coronary artery disease.

  3. Lissajous curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissajous_curve

    A Lissajous curve / ˈ l ɪ s ə ʒ uː /, also known as Lissajous figure or Bowditch curve / ˈ b aʊ d ɪ tʃ /, is the graph of a system of parametric equations x = A sin ⁡ ( a t + δ ) , y = B sin ⁡ ( b t ) , {\displaystyle x=A\sin(at+\delta ),\quad y=B\sin(bt),}

  4. Autoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoregulation

    Homeometric autoregulation occurs independently of cardiomyocyte fiber length, via the Bowditch and/or Anrep effects. [7] Via the Bowditch effect, positive inotropy occurs secondary to an increased cardiac frequency. The exact mechanism for this remains unknown, but it appears to be the result of an increased exposure of the heart to ...

  5. Myocardial contractility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_contractility

    Sensitizing troponin-C to the effects of calcium. Phosphorylating L-type calcium channels. This will increase their permeability to calcium, allowing more calcium into the myocyte cells, increasing contractility. An abrupt increase in afterload enhances myocardial contractility and prolongs systolic ejection time through the Anrep effect. This ...

  6. List of effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_effects

    Negative (positive) contrast effect (psychology) Negativity effect (cognitive biases) (psychological theories) Neglected firm effect (business analysis) Nernst effect (electrodynamics) (thermodynamics) Network effect (business models) (economics effects) (information technology) (monopoly [economics]) (networks) (transport economics)

  7. Lusitropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lusitropy

    Lusitropy or lucitropy is the rate of myocardial relaxation. The increase in cytosolic calcium of cardiomyocytes via increased uptake leads to increased myocardial contractility (positive inotropic effect), but the myocardial relaxation, or lusitropy, decreases.

  8. he tales were scrubbed further and the Disney princesses -- frail yet occasionally headstrong, whenever the trait could be framed as appealing — were born. In 1937, . Walt Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" was released to critical acclaim, paving the way for future on-screen adaptations of classic tales.
