Maintenance of subcategorical information during speech perception: revisiting misunderstood limitations.

Accurate word recognition is facilitated by context. Some relevant context, however, occurs after the word. Rational use of such "right context" would require listeners to have maintained or about the word, thus allowing for consideration of possible alternatives when they encounter relevant right context.

Dynamic re-weighting of acoustic and contextual cues in spoken word recognition.

Listeners integrate acoustic and contextual cues during word recognition. However, experiments investigating this integration disrupt natural cue correlations. It was investigated whether changes in correlational structure affect listeners' relative cue weightings.

Effects of resistance exercise on cardiopulmonary factors in sedentary individuals.

[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of resistance exercise on cardiopulmonary functions in young sedentary subjects. [Subjects] Forty-two young and healthy subjects with a sedentary lifestyle were included in this study. [Methods] The subjects were randomly divided into 2 groups: control and experimental.

Heart imaging with cationic complexes of technetium.

The cationic technetium-99 complex trans-[99TC(dmpe)2Cl2]+, where dmpe is bis(1,2-dimethylphosphino)ethane or (CH3)2P-CH2-P(CH3)2, has been prepared and characterized by single-crystal, x-ray structural analysis. The technetium-99m analog, trans-(99mTc(dmpe) 2Cl2]+, has also been prepared and shown to yield excellent gamma-ray images of the heart. The purposeful design, characterization, and synthesis of this technetium-99m radiopharmaceutical represents a striking application of fundamental inorganic chemistry to a problem in applied nuclear medicine.
