Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the effects of high glucose on the hypertrophy of H9C2 cardiomyocytes and the potential inhibition of this effect by the calcium channel inhibitor Norvasc.
  • H9C2 cells showed increased size and elevated calcium levels with higher glucose concentrations, but Norvasc reduced these sizes and calcium levels back towards baseline.
  • The research also assessed the activity of calcineurin (CaN) and the expression of proteins related to hypertrophy, finding that both CaN activity and levels of hypertrophy markers were significantly higher in high glucose conditions, but reduced with Norvasc treatment.

In uncooled long-wave IR camera systems, the temperature of a focal plane array (FPA) is variable along with the environmental temperature as well as the operating time. The spatial nonuniformity of the FPA, which is partly affected by the FPA temperature, obviously changes as well, resulting in reduced image quality. This study presents a real-time nonuniformity correction algorithm based on FPA temperature to compensate for nonuniformity caused by FPA temperature fluctuation.
