The ERB-rate scale, or ERB-number scale, can be defined as a function ERBS(f) which returns the number of equivalent rectangular bandwidths below the given frequency f. The units of the ERB-number scale are known ERBs, or as Cams, following a suggestion by Hartmann. [ 3 ]
The rates as listed in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Package Inserts (PIs) for inhibition of this effect at the 24th hour for the ARBs are as follows: Valsartan – 30% at 80 mg; Telmisartan – 40% at 80 mg; Losartan – 25–40% at 100 mg; Irbesartan – 40% at 150 mg; 60% 300 mg; Azilsartan – 60% at 32 mg
Some non-mel auditory-frequency-scale formulas use the same form but with much lower break frequency, not necessarily mapping to 1000 at 1000 Hz; for example the ERB-rate scale of Glasberg and Moore (1990) uses a break point of 228.8 Hz, [15] and the cochlear frequency–place map of Greenwood (1990) uses 165.3 Hz.

The pioneering work of Ladefoged [16] used the Mel scale because this scale was claimed to correspond more closely to the auditory scale of pitch than to the acoustic measure of fundamental frequency expressed in Hertz. Two alternatives to the Mel scale are the Bark scale and the ERB-rate scale. [17]
A normal blood pressure reading is less than 120/80 mm Hg, while high blood pressure, or hypertension, is considered 130/80 mm Hg or higher, according to the American College of Cardiology and ...
[6] [7] The ERB can be converted into a scale that relates to frequency and shows the position of the auditory filter along the basilar membrane. For example, ERB = 3.36 Hz corresponds to a frequency at the apical end of the basilar membrane, whereas ERB = 38.9 Hz corresponds to the base, and a value of 19.5 Hz falls half-way between the two. [6]
Commonly, ischemic heart attack and stroke are the causes that lead to death in patients with severe hypertension. It is estimated that for every 20 mm Hg systolic or 10 mm Hg diastolic increase in blood pressures above 115/75 mm Hg, the mortality rate for both ischemic heart disease, cancer and stroke doubles.
