Objective: To determine pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) by echocardiography - Doppler and to find correlation between pulmonary vascular resistance with left ventricular EF, PAPs, TAPSE, tissue S-wave of the tricuspid valve in patients with ischemic heart disease. Subjects and Methods: We studied on 82 patients with ischemic heart disease and EF<40% including 36 females, 46 males. Patients were estimated for pulmonary vascular resistance, EF, PAPs, TAPSE, tissue S-wave of the tricuspid valve by echocardiographyDoppler. Results: 64.6% of patients are increased PVR, average of PVR is 3.91 ± 1.85 Wood units and it is increasing with NYHA severity. There are negative correlations between pulmonary vascular resistance with left ventricular ejection fraction (r = - 0.545; p <0.001), TAPSE index (r= -0.590; p <0.001) and tissue S-wave of the tricuspid valve (r = -0.420; p <0.001); positive correlation with systolic pulmonary artery pressure (r = 0.361, p = 0.001), Conclusions: Increased PVR is the primary mechanism for pulmonary hypertension and right heart failure in patients with left heart disease. Determination of PVR in patients with left ventricular dysfunction by echocardiography is important in clinical practice. Key words: Echocardiography-Doppler; Pulmonary vascular resistance; ischemic heart disease

The article is devoted to the study of interethnic attitudes of people of different nationalities in the labor sphere. Based on the data of 24-s wave of RLMS-HSE, interviews and focus groups, we study the readiness to accept a boss of a different nationality, as well as factors affecting the perception of a foreign boss (gender, age, education, profession, marital status, type of settlement and economic conditions).

Two Parameters

ABSTRACT Spectral decay of ground-motion amplitudes at high frequencies is primarily influenced by two parameters: site-related kappa (κ0) and regional Q (quality factor, inversely proportional to anelastic attenuation). We examine kappa and apparent Q-values (Qa) for M≥3.5 earthquakes recorded at seismograph stations on rock sites in eastern and western Canada. Our database contains 20 earthquakes recorded on nine stations in eastern Canada and 404 earthquakes recorded on eight stations in western Canada, resulting in 105 and 865 Fourier amplitude spectra, respectively. We apply two different methods: (1) a modified version of the classical S-wave acceleration method; and (2) a new stacking method that is consistent with the use of kappa in ground-motion modeling. The results are robust with respect to the method used and also with respect to the frequency band selected, which ranges from 9 to 38 Hz depending on the region, event, and method. Kappa values obtained from the classical method are consistent with those of the stacked method, but the stacked method provides a lower uncertainty. A general observation is that kappa is usually larger, and apparent Q is smaller, for the horizontal component in comparison to the vertical component. We determine an average regional κ0=7  ms (horizontal) and 0 ms (vertical) for rock sites in eastern Canada; we obtain κ0=19  ms (horizontal) and 14 ms (vertical) for rock sites in western Canada. We note that kappa measurements are quite sensitive to details of data selection criteria and methodology, and may be significantly influenced by site effects, resulting in large site-to-site variability.

Static Elastic Moduli

We obtained the complete set of dynamic elastic stiffnesses for a suite of “shales” representative of unconventional reservoirs from simultaneously measured P- and S-wave speeds on single prisms specially machined from cores. Static linear compressibilities were concurrently obtained using strain gauges attached to the prism. Regardless of being from static or dynamic measurements, the pressure sensitivity varies strongly with the direction of measurement. Furthermore, the static and dynamic linear compressibilities measured parallel to the bedding are nearly the same whereas those perpendicular to the bedding can differ by as much as 100%. Compliant cracklike porosity, seen in scanning electron microscope images, controls the elastic properties measured perpendicular to the rock’s bedding plane and results in highly nonlinear pressure sensitivity. In contrast, those properties measured parallel to the bedding are nearly insensitive to stress. This anisotropy to the pressure dependency of the strains and moduli further complicates the study of the overall anisotropy of such rocks. This horizontal stress insensitivity has implications for the use of advanced sonic logging techniques for stress direction indication. Finally, we tested the validity of the practice of estimating the fracture pressure gradient (i.e., horizontal stress) using our observed elastic engineering moduli and found that ignoring anisotropy would lead to underestimates of the minimum stress by as much as 90%. Although one could ostensibly obtain better values or the minimum stress if the rock anisotropy is included, we would hope that these results will instead discourage this method of estimating horizontal stress in favor of more reliable techniques.
