(16) It’s ‘shh, shh, we know what’s best for you, we’re going to get you out of this industry because you’re harming yourself and you don’t even know it’.
(17) For this purpose we compared the average hearing loss (500, 1000, 2000 Hz) of the puretone audiogram with the results obtained via the questionnaire developed by v. Wedel and Tegtmeier for assessing the social hearing handicap (SHH).
(18) To investigate the influence of wall hypertrophy and myocardial lesions on the regional contractile dynamics of the left ventricle (LV) in patients of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), we obtained the thicknesses of the ventricular septum (VS) and posterior wall at end-diastole and systole (E.Td, E.Ts) from echocardiograms made before death for 11 patients of HCM and 6 patients of secondary concentric hypertrophic heart disease (SHH), and the percent regional systolic wall thickening normalized by that of 15 normal controls (%NRWT).
(19) AVP increased significantly in LRS rats, and also showed an increasing trend in HH and SHH, but no significance was found (P > 0.05).
