Models for predicting soil nutrition elements content were established by regression methods. The data source was simulated multi-spectral data from reflectance spectra measured under laboratory condition. First, the reflectance spectra were resampled to the corresponding bands of multi-spectral sensors (TM and ASTER) according to their reflectance response functions.

Our study demonstrated that, in the very early stages of infarction, a T-wave amplitude that is greater in lead III than in lead II and an upright or positive biphasic T wave in lead V(5)R are just as predictive as ST-segment changes and are often easier to measure.

Methods: PCI (including percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting) was performed in 42 patients within 1 to 2 weeks following the onset of AMI (PCI group), with another 31 patients who were admitted within the same period to receive medication for AMI serving as the control group. The patients in both groups were observed for comparison of the occurrence of reinfarction and angina, mortality at 1 and 6 months, and findings by ultrasound cardiograms (UCG).
