Brain Mass (Energy) Resistant to Hyperglycaemic Oversupply: A Systematic Review
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Cerebral energy supply is determined by the energy content of the blood. Accordingly, the brain is undersupplied during hypoglycaemia. Whether or not there is an additional cerebral energy demand that depends upon the energy content of the brain is ...

A General Life History Theory for Effects of Caloric Restriction on Health Maintenance [PDF]
BMC Systems Biology, 2011 Caloric restriction (CR) has been shown to keep organisms in a relatively youthful and healthy state compared to ad libitum fed counterparts, as well as to extend the lifespan of a diverse set of organisms. Several attempts have been made to understand the underlying mechanisms from the viewpoint of energy tradeoffs in organisms' life histories ...

Spin caloric transport from density-functional theory [PDF]
Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2018 Abstract Spin caloric transport refers to the coupling of heat with spin transport. Its applications primarily concern the generation of spin currents and control of magnetisation by temperature gradients for information technology, known by the synonym spin caloritronics
