Carnap, however, defines analyticity in artificial languages. The dissertation also shows that Carnap can meet the objections to his definitions by using a perspective based within his own philosophy. After examining the presumptions of each party to the deb

Ischaemic heart disease accounts for approximately 7 million deaths worldwide on a yearly basis and this figure is only set to rise as life expectancy in developing countries increases. Although no longer considered a post mitotic organ, the adult heart demonstrates only a very limited capacity for regeneration. Consequently ischaemic injury results in massive loss of contractile cardiomyocytes with damaged myocardium replaced by a non-contractile and poorly conductive collagen scar. This in turn often leads to the development of heart failure. Enhancing or supplementing the myocardial regener

Research has shown that autologous progenitor-like cardiac spheroids, when delivered to an infarcted heart, are able to restore mechanical function. These spheroids are made by isolating and expanding autologous cardiac progenitor cells. Though these results are promising, the process for creating cardiac spheroids is inefficient and time consuming, requiring a large amount of cardiac tissue. For every 10,000 cardiac myocytes in the heart there is only one cardiac progenitor cell; requiring a large amount of initial tissue.

Abstract:
This research studies the knowledge organization systems (KOS) related to theories to build thesaurus, taxonomies, ontologies and classification systems in the literature field of Information Science. It uses the methodology of literature review and a research on the same field databases in order to investigate the bibliographic production about the theme, from 1998 up to July 2009. A bibliographic research about knowledge organization and representation is carried out, specifically related to the development of thesaurus, taxonomies, ontologies and classification systems. It identifies the sa

Abstract:
Despite advances in treatment, heart failure remains one of the top killers in Canada. This recognition motivates a new research focus to harness the fundamental repair properties of the human heart, with human cardiac stem cells (CSCs) emerging as a promising cell candidate to regenerate damaged myocardium. The rationale of this approach is simple with ex vivo amplification of CSCs from clinical grade biopsies, followed by delivery to areas of injury, where they engraft and regenerate the heart. Currently, outcomes are limited by modest engraftment and poor long-term survival of the injected

Abstract:
This thesis assesses the mechanisms by which biventricular and left ventricular pacing improves cardiac performance in patients with heart failure. We demonstrated for the first time that CRT results in an improvement in acute haemodynamic variables in heart failure patients with a narrow QRS duration that is comparable to the effects seen in heart failure patients with a broad QRS duration. In addition, we have shown that both biventricular (BIVP) and left ventricular pacing (LVP) significantly reduce external constraint to left ventricular filling, resulting in an increase in effective filli

Abstract:
Background: Previous research indicates that for some individuals, quality of life (QoL) post-cardiac surgery (CABG or PTCA ) declines from pre-surgery levels. Using the framework of Leventhal's Common-Sense Model, this longitudinal study examined the associations between patients' illness perceptions and coping strategies, their QoL, attendance at cardiac rehabilitation and lifestyle changes. It was hypothesised that a more negative profile of illness beliefs (weaker control beliefs, belief in more severe consequences, poorer understanding of the condition, and negative emotional representati
