First-time evaluation of ascending compared to rectangular transthoracic defibrillation waveforms in modelled out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Aim Of The Study: Prognosis in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) depends on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) duration. Therefore, the optimal biphasic defibrillation waveform shows high conversion rates besides low energy. Matthew Fishler theoretically predicted it to be truncated ascending exponential.

Prenatal and neonatal androgen exposure interact to affect sexual differentiation in female rats.

Rats were injected with oil on Days 17.5 and 18.5 of pregnancy or with 2 mg of testosterone propionate (TP) on Days 15.
