AnastomoseAnastomose peut désigner : anastomose, en anatomie, la connexion physique entre deux structures, organes ou espaces ; anastomose, en médecine, la pratique d'une telle connexion ; anastomose, en botanique, la communication physique et biochimique entre les racines de deux arbres ou plantes différents ; anastomose, en mycologie, chez les champignons supérieurs, la fusion des cytoplasmes des hyphes ; anastomose, en hydrologie, une connexion entre deux bras d'un même cours d'eau ; anastomose, en biologie cellula
AnalyticsAnalytics is the systematic computational analysis of data or statistics. It is used for the discovery, interpretation, and communication of meaningful patterns in data. It also entails applying data patterns toward effective decision-making. It can be valuable in areas rich with recorded information; analytics relies on the simultaneous application of statistics, computer programming, and operations research to quantify performance. Organizations may apply analytics to business data to describe, predict, and improve business performance.
Compliance (physiology)Compliance is the ability of a hollow organ (vessel) to distend and increase volume with increasing transmural pressure or the tendency of a hollow organ to resist recoil toward its original dimensions on application of a distending or compressing force. It is the reciprocal of "elastance", hence elastance is a measure of the tendency of a hollow organ to recoil toward its original dimensions upon removal of a distending or compressing force. The terms elastance and compliance are of particular significance in cardiovascular physiology and respiratory physiology.
Statistical parameterIn statistics, as opposed to its general use in mathematics, a parameter is any measured quantity of a statistical population that summarises or describes an aspect of the population, such as a mean or a standard deviation. If a population exactly follows a known and defined distribution, for example the normal distribution, then a small set of parameters can be measured which completely describes the population, and can be considered to define a probability distribution for the purposes of extracting samples from this population.
Analogue filterAnalogue filters are a basic building block of signal processing much used in electronics. Amongst their many applications are the separation of an audio signal before application to bass, mid-range, and tweeter loudspeakers; the combining and later separation of multiple telephone conversations onto a single channel; the selection of a chosen radio station in a radio receiver and rejection of others.
Prescriptive analyticsPrescriptive analytics is a form of business analytics which suggests decision options for how to take advantage of a future opportunity or mitigate a future risk, and shows the implication of each decision option. It enables an enterprise to consider "the best course of action to take" in the light of information derived from descriptive and predictive analytics. Prescriptive analytics is the third and final phase of business analytics, which also includes descriptive and predictive analytics.
Filtre mécaniqueA mechanical filter is a signal processing filter usually used in place of an electronic filter at radio frequencies. Its purpose is the same as that of a normal electronic filter: to pass a range of signal frequencies, but to block others. The filter acts on mechanical vibrations which are the analogue of the electrical signal. At the input and output of the filter, transducers convert the electrical signal into, and then back from, these mechanical vibrations.
Hypertension artérielle pulmonaireL'hypertension artérielle pulmonaire (HTAP) correspond à un groupe de maladies d'évolution progressive caractérisée par une élévation anormale de la pression sanguine au niveau des artères pulmonaires, dont le symptôme principal est un essoufflement à l'effort. Selon la cause et la gravité, l'hypertension artérielle pulmonaire peut être une maladie grave avec une tolérance à l'effort très nettement diminuée et mener à une insuffisance cardiaque droite.
