Prolonged chewing at lunch decreases later snack intake

Appetite, 2013
Prolonged chewing of food can reduce meal intake. However, whether prolonged chewing influences intake at a subsequent eating occasion is unknown. We hypothesised that chewing each mouthful for 30s would reduce afternoon snack intake more than (a) an habitual chewing control condition, and (b) an habitual chewing condition with a pauses in between each

Investigation of flow at a right-angled lateral intake

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Water Management, 2009
Based on experimental measurements and observations in a laboratory channel, the hydrodynamic behaviour of the approaching flow and the amount of sediment entering a right-angled lateral intake in a diversion dam were investigated. The velocity field, both upstream of the intake in the main channel and in front of the intake in the sluiceway, were ...

Two-dimensional model for lateral intake flows

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Water Management, 2005
This paper gives details of the refinement and application of a two-dimensional horizontal model for rivers. An explicit finite-difference algorithm was used for solving the governing differential equations, which includes the conservation of mass and momentum to predict hydrodynamic parameters.

Association between macronutrient intake and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis prognosis

Nutritional Neuroscience, 2018
Objectives: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, and the nutritional state of ALS patients is associated with survival. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether macronutrient intake at early stage of the disease was positively associated with survival and duration from symptom onset to death,

Lateral parabrachial nucleus and central amygdala in the control of sodium intake

Neuroscience, 2010
The lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) and the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) are important areas for the control of sodium appetite. In the present study we investigated the effects of bilateral lesions of the CeA on the facilitation of water and 0.3 M NaCl intake produced by the blockade of serotonergic mechanisms or activation of alpha(2 ...

Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Risk of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in Japan

Neuroepidemiology, 2009
<i>Background:</i> There has been little interest in the role of nutrition in the prevention of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We investigated the relationship between dietary intake of vegetables, fruit, and antioxidants and the risk of ALS in Japan.

Opioid activation in the lateral parabrachial nucleus induces hypertonic sodium intake [PDF]

Neuroscience, 2008
Opioid mechanisms are involved in the control of water and NaCl intake and opioid receptors are present in the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN), a site of important inhibitory mechanisms related to the control of sodium appetite. Therefore, in the present study we investigated the effects of opioid receptor activation in the LPBN on 0.3 M NaCl and ...

Intelligent Modeling of Discharge Coefficient of Lateral Intakes

2018
Intake structures have been widely used for flow diversion in the irrigation and drainage networks. In this paper, the multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), artificial neural network (ANN), and support vector machine (SVM) techniques were utilized for prediction of discharge coefficient (Cd) of lateral intakes.

Glutamate and GABA in lateral hypothalamic mechanisms controlling food intake

Physiology & Behavior, 2011
By the 1990s a convergence of evidence had accumulated to suggest that neurons within the lateral hypothalamus (LH) play important roles in the stimulation of feeding behavior. However, there was little direct evidence demonstrating that neurotransmitters in the LH could, like electrical stimulation, elicit feeding in satiated animals.

Lateral hypothalamic injection of bombesin decreases food intake in rats

Brain Research Bulletin, 1982
The effect of lateral hypothalamic injections of bombesin on feeding behavior was examined. Rats equipped with stainless steel cannulas directed toward the lateral hypothalamus received bilateral injections of bombesin prior to access to a liquid test diet after a 3 hr food deprivation.
