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 ]
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. [16]
[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.

The glucose clamp technique was developed by University of Texas (UT) School of Medicine Professors DeFronzo, Andres and Tobin in 1979. [2] It has since been the gold standard for pharmacodynamic studies in diabetes drug development and diagnostics evaluation. [3]
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]

Normal blood glucose level (tested while fasting) for non-diabetics should be 3.9–5.5 mmol/L (70–100 mg/dL). [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] According to the American Diabetes Association , the fasting blood glucose target range for diabetics, should be 3.9 - 7.2 mmol/L (70 - 130 mg/dL) and less than 10 mmol/L (180 mg/dL) two hours after meals (as ...
The metabolic equivalent of task (MET) is the objective measure of the ratio of the rate at which a person expends energy, relative to the mass of that person, while performing some specific physical activity compared to a reference, currently set by convention at an absolute 3.5 mL of oxygen per kg per minute, which is the energy expended when sitting quietly by a reference individual, chosen ...
