Lax pairs on Yang-Baxter deformed backgrounds
We explicitly derive Lax pairs for string theories on Yang-Baxter deformed
backgrounds, 1) gravity duals for noncommutative gauge theories, 2)
-deformations of S, 3) Schr\"odinger spacetimes and 4) abelian
twists of the global AdS\,. Then we can find out a concise derivation of
Lax pairs based on simple replacement rules. Furthermore, each of the above
deformations can be reinterpreted as a twisted periodic boundary conditions
with the undeformed background by using the rules. As another derivation, the
Lax pair for gravity duals for noncommutative gauge theories is reproduced from
the one for a -deformed AdSS by taking a scaling limit.Comment: 1+39 pages, v3: typos corrected and the reference [42] adde

Modulation of left ventricular diastolic distensibility by collateral flow recruitment during balloon coronary occlusion
AbstractOBJECTIVESThe goals of this study were to elucidate the scaffolding effect of blood-filled coronary vasculature and to determine the functional role of recruited collateral flow in modulating left ventricular (LV) distensibility during balloon coronary occlusion (BCO).BACKGROUNDAlthough LV distensibility is an important factor affecting acute dilation after myocardial infarction, the response of LV diastolic pressure–volume (P-V) relations to coronary occlusion is inconsistent in humans.METHODSMicromanometer and conductance derived LV P-V loops were serially obtained from 16 patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Coronary collateral flow recruitment was angiographically evaluated by contralateral and ipsilateral contrast injection during BCO.RESULTSIn the group with poor collateral flow (grades 0–I; n = 8), BCO resulted in a downward and rightward shift of the diastolic P-V relations, where end-diastolic volume (EDV) increased by 13% (p < 0.05) without appreciable change in end-diastolic pressure (EDP; 18 ± 6 to 18 ± 8 mm Hg). In contrast, BCO in the group with good collateral flow (grades II–III; n = 8) shifted the diastolic P-V relations upward to the right with a concomitant increase in minimal pressure (min-P; 6 ± 4 to 10 ± 5 mm Hg, p < 0.05), EDP (15 ± 7 to 21 ± 9 mm Hg, p < 0.05) and EDV (+10%, p < 0.05). Reactive hyperemia after balloon deflation caused a rapid and parallel upward shift of the diastolic P-V relations with a marked increase in min-P and EDP, especially in the group with poor collateral flow, before any improvement in LV contraction or relaxation abnormalities.CONCLUSIONSGrades of coronary filling, either retrograde or anterograde, abruptly modulate LV distensibility through the rapid scaffolding effect of coronary vascular turgor
