Congenital aortic stenosis usually affects the subvalvular region, and occurs mainly in Newfoundland, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd, and Boxer dogs. The disorder is inherited as a dominant trait with variable penetrance in Newfoundland dogs.

The prevalence of subaortic stenosis-like heart murmurs in Golden Retriever dogs appears to be very much greater than previously suspected.

Most cases of aortic stenosis represent mild lesions, are detected as incidental findings, and result in no loss of longevity or quality of life. Moderate or severe stenosis may result in exertional weakness, syncope, or sudden death. Signs of congestive heart failure are rare unless mitral valve insufficiency is present.

Generally, electrocardiography and radiography are unrevealing in this disorder. Doppler echocardiography may be the best diagnostic tool to detect even mild cases of aortic stenosis.

At present, therapy is limited due to the technical expertise and expense required. The prognosis depends on the severity of the lesion.

Integration of sapflow velocity in elliptical stems     

Hatton TJ  Greenslade D  Dawes WR 《Tree physiology》1992,11(2):185-196

The estimation of water flux through the stem of a plant by point estimates based on the heat pulse technique requires integration of the velocity profile. The polynomial integration method and the weighted average technique both assume radial symmetry about the bole. A method is introduced that solves the equations for the ellipse in the weighted average technique, and includes an optimizing algorithm for the placement of sensors. The sensitivity of sapflow estimates through stems to increasing eccentricity is examined by means of analytical solutions and simulation. The error in sap flux measurement resulting from the radial approximation of the sapwood conducting area is expressed analytically and shown to be small over the range of eccentricities (e < 0.8) expected in nature. Simulations where radial symmetry is assumed for elliptical stems show substantial error in mean velocity (and thus flux) with modest eccentricities (e > 0.4).  相似文献
