Effects of brain renin- angiotensin system inhibition in ISIAH rats with inherited stress-induced arterial hypertension by L. O. Klimov, M. A. Ryazanova, L. A. Fedoseeva, A. L. Markel

“…It has been shown that a steady arterial pressure increase is often associated with changes in the functioning of the central (brain) RAS in various animal models of hypertensive disease and in humans. Nevertheless, it is still not completely clear whether these changes alone are sufficient for the formation of hypertensive status, and whether the components of the central RAS can be used as targets for the treatment of hypertensive disease. …”

The Product of Formal Innovation in Contemporary Interior Design Techniques by Muhammad JarAllah Tawfiq, Rouwaida Ra'ed Muhammad

“… The product of formal innovation has become a strategy in itself, and because the design development with a technical dimension has become a feature of human life, so the concerned institutions have been referring to this through architecture, including the interior spaces it contains, especially at the level of all materials and raw materials.Therefore, in recent years a phenomenon has emerged that is characterized by the innovation of new design techniques, as the interior designer began to realize the importance of innovation, renewal and development through aesthetic and creative data that takes into account the formation of a future vision in which factors concerned with technical development in contemporary interior design overlap, and by informing researchers about foreign design techniques .Therefore, the problem of the research study was formulated with the following question: Does the product of formal innovation have a role in contemporary interior design techniques? …”
