Right ventricular function in athletes engaged in endurance exercise using speckle tracking echocardiography: a meta-analysis by Chenzan Guo, Hebin Zhang, Cunxin Yang, Peipei Hu, Hui Ma, Ying Ma, Feng Gao

“…Conclusion The evidence obtained thus far suggests that reporting only global right ventricular strain data may obscure segment-specific adaptation changes, and the use of global and segmental strain analysis may help to identify potential functional changes in the right ventricle while differentiating between normal endurance athletes and non-active controls.…”

Stabilization of chaotic quaternion-valued neutral-type neural networks via sampled-data control with two-sided looped functional approach by Qiankun Song, Qian Wu, Yurong Liu

“… The quaternion-valued neutral-type neural networks (QVNTNNs) stability problem through designing sampled-data controller is investigated in this paper. A main stability criterion of the considered neural networks (NNs) is obtained in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) based on the two-sided looped functional method. …”
