If the cost of bank lending is not very high,the capitalconstrained retailer can borrow money and make efforts. The reduction of bank interest rates,however,increases the retailer's efforts. We prove that there is a unique equilibrium point between the retailers. We find out the optimal interest rate of the bank and the optimal efforts by the retailer through numerical analysis and verify validity of the results.展开更多

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise test on corrected QT dispersion (QTcd) and QTcd recovery in PEX. Patients and Methods: A total of 37 patients diagnosed as PEX were included in the study. The control group consisted of 38 patients. The Electrocardiographies (ECG) were taken. The patients were subjected to an exercise test. Results: In the study group, baseline, peak and third minute recovery QTcd values were 41.35 ± 7.27 ms, 65.19 ± 7.83 ms, and 53.61 ± 6.45 ms, respectively. In the control group, baseline, peak and third minute recovery QTcd values were 29.92 ± 4.23 ms, 38.31 ± 4.22 ms and 28.76 ± 3.09 ms, respectively. There was statistically significant?difference between the baseline and peak QTcd values of the study group and?the control group (t = 8.34224/p 0.00001, t = 18.55079/p 0.00001, respectively). In addition, while there was a statistically significant?difference between the baseline QTcd and the third minute recovery QTcd in the study group, there was no statistically significant difference between the baseline QTcd value and the third minute recovery QTcd value in the control group as heart rate recovery (t = 8.388558/p 0.00001, t = 1.967315/p = 0.056668, respectively).?Conclusion: All of them were found to have a higher risk in terms of malignant ventricular arrhythmia in the study group, both at rest and with effort, in a statistically significant way compared to the control group.展开更多
