Inotropic stimulation of the myocardium, as well as vasodilation
and diuresis as essential principles in the treatment of congestive
heart failure have recently met with considerable criticism and
reevaluation. It is generally agreed that unloading of the heart,
either through vasodilation and/or diuresis, improves the working
conditions of the dilated, failing heart. It reduces myocar dial
oxygen consumption through reduction of chamber radius and,
thereby, wall tension as the major determinants of myocardial
oxygen consumption. Inotropic stimulation, quite in contrast, does
not conserve oxygen. It rather consumes energy and that may be
disadvantageous in situations of compromised oxygen supply and
energy metabolism of the working myocardium. However, under
conditions of suf ficient oxygen supply and metabolic support
inotropic stimulation may bring about in creased pumping and
subsequent improvement of myocardial failure. In recent years it
could convincingly be demonstrated that vasodilation leads to symp
tomatic improvement of congestive heart failure, improvement of
exercise tolerance, and it prolongs life - especially in the case
of ACE-inhibitors and the combination of hydra lazine with
long-acting nitrates. Quite in contrast, equally beneficial effects
could not be demonstrated for inotropic agents in congestive heart
failure. Only for the cardiac glyco sides has it been shown that
beneficial effects can be achieved, especially if atrial fibril
lation with absolute arrhythmia is present. The influence of the
cardiac glycosides on the latter represents an effect which is
independent of the inotropic action."
Wolfgang H Scholz (b. 1958) is a visual artist and film director.
His work spans more than three decades and encompasses apart from
painting many forms of expression, ranging from theatrical and
documentary films, sculpture, photography, and installations to
multimedia stage pieces. His central theme is the vision of an
imaginary arrival, and his work method is a form of decoding. Other
essential concepts that recur in Scholz's work include the
labyrinth, time, memories or localization and the questioning of
reality. The title The Void is taken from a Buddhist term for the
Fifth Element: The Void. Since 2010 Scholz has worked with Japanese
Butoh masters, creating several multimedia stage pieces and series
of photographic works on this theme. This volume includes a
conversation with Prof. Dr. Boris Groys of New York University, one
of the most important scholars of the arts and humanities of the
twentieth century. This dialogue is an essential text for
understanding the creative processes, references, and influences of
Wolfgang H Scholz concerning the philosophical and programmatic
themes of The Void. This book will be published to coincide with
exhibitions by the MACO - Museum of Contemporary Art Oaxaca (2019),
Mexico, the Museum Ex Teresa Arte Actual (2019), the gallery Casa
Galván - UAM - Universidad Autónoma metropolitana (2020) and in
collaboration with the presentations of the performance THE VOID at
the Butoh Festival Kyoto, Japan (July 2019) and at the Theatre CC
Los Talleres, Mexico City in 2019. Text in English with a Spanish
and German insert.
Das vorliegende Lehrbuch der Magen-Darmkrankheiten ist ur
sprunglich als Abschnitt eines skandinavischen Handbuchs der
inneren Medizin geschrieben. Einer Aufforderung von Herrn Dr.
Springer, das Werk in seinem Verlage als selbstandiges Buch
erscheinen zu lassen, bin ich gern gefolgt und begruBe die
Gelegenheit, einem deutschen Leser kreis seine Bekanntschaft zu
vermitteln. Das Buch ist fur Studenten und praktische Arzte
geschrieben; soweit als moglich habe ich es vermieden, auf manche
Erorterungen pathogenetischer Art einzugehen, die vorlaufig nur
hypothetischen Wert haben und sich mehr fUr groBere Werke eignen.

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers
provides a unified treatment of earthquakes and faulting as two
aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The intimate
connection between the two is manifested in their scaling laws and
populations, which evolve from fracture growth and interactions
between fractures. The connection between faults and the seismicity
generated is governed by the rate and state dependent friction laws
- producing distinctive seismic styles of faulting and a gamut of
earthquake phenomena including aftershocks, afterslip, earthquake
triggering, and slow slip events. The third edition of this classic
treatise presents a wealth of new topics and new observations.
These include slow earthquake phenomena; friction of
phyllosilicates, and at high sliding velocities; fault structures;
relative roles of strong and seismogenic versus weak and creeping
faults; dynamic triggering of earthquakes; oceanic earthquakes;
megathrust earthquakes in subduction zones; deep earthquakes; and
new observations of earthquake precursory phenomena.
