In order to analyze the effect of intermittent negative pressure ventilation (NPV) on renal function, we studied 20 healthy male volunteers (mean age 29±4.1 years). NPV was performed with an "Emerson Chest Respirator Pump", adjusted to a breathing frequency of 10 respirations per minute, with inspiratory time/total respiratory time ratio of 0.4 and negative pressure of 25 cmH2O. The experimental protocol was carried out in two phases of two hours each - spontaneous breathing and NPV breathing. At the end of each phase, urine volume of the whole period was collected as well as venous blood sample for biochemical determinations. During NPV there was significant increase (P<0.05) in urine flow rate (1.43±0.81 to 2.76±1.95 ml/min) as well as in natriuresis (258±201 to 389±175 mcEq/min), kaliuresis (61±45 to 98±49 mcEq/min), fractional sodium excretion (1.38±0.88 to 1.96±0.98%), osmolar clearance (3.13±1.82 to 4.32±1.24 ml/min) and pH (7.37± 0.04 to 7.41±0.07) with unchanged creatinine and free water clearances. We concluded that NPV increases urine flow rate, kaliuresis and natriuresis but the data we have do not allow us to explain the mechanisms underlying such a phenomenon.

To evaluate the response of normal subjects to assisted ventilation, we studied 6 naive healthy subjects before and during negative-pressure ventilation (NPV) with "low" (-10 cmH2O) and "high" (-30 cmH2O) pressures in an Emerson tank respirator. Ventilation was measured with an inductive plethysmograph (Respitrace), and diaphragmatic electromyogram (DEMG) was studied with a bipolar esophageal electrode. During NPV a 1:1 phase lock was observed between subjects and iron lung frequency in all subjects. Tidal volume increased in most subjects, more with high than with low pressures (P less than 0.05), whereas DEMG increased, decreased, or showed no change. Postinspiratory inspiratory diaphragmatic activity (PIIA) significantly increased during high-pressure NPV and was accompanied by an increase in tonic DEMG in one-half of the subjects. Voluntary relaxation resulted in a decrease in DEMG and PIIA. We suggest that cortical activity can explain persistency of active breathing during negative-pressure ventilation.

In a first of this kind, this paper examines the issue of prior return effect in Indian stock market in intra-day analysis using high frequency data. We document that in Indian stock market, security returns exhibit a reversal in their direction within few minutes of extreme price rises as well as price falls. However the speed with which the correction takes place is slightly different for good news events and bad news events. Indian investors tend to be optimistic as they immediately bring stock prices up following unjustified price falls but take time to bring stock prices down following unjustified price rises. These findings lend a further support to short-term overreaction literature. More importantly, these findings serve as a proof of predictability of the direction of future stock prices and consequent returns on an intra-day basis. It forwards important investment implications for traders, fund managers, and investors at large.

In order for the detection ability of floating small targets in sea clutter to be improved, on the basis of the complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) algorithm, the high-frequency parts and low-frequency parts are determined by the energy proportion of the intrinsic mode function (IMF); the high-frequency part is denoised by wavelet packet transform (WPT), whereas the denoised high-frequency IMFs and low-frequency IMFs reconstruct the pure sea clutter signal together. According to the chaotic characteristics of sea clutter, we proposed an adaptive training timesteps strategy. The training timesteps of network were determined by the width of embedded window, and the chaotic long short-term memory network detection was designed. The sea clutter signals after denoising were predicted by chaotic long short-term memory (LSTM) network, and small target signals were detected from the prediction errors. The experimental results showed that the CEEMD-WPT algorithm was consistent with the target distribution characteristics of sea clutter, and the denoising performance was improved by 33.6% on average. The proposed chaotic long- and short-term memory network, which determines the training step length according to the width of embedded window, is a new detection method that can accurately detect small targets submerged in the background of sea clutter.
