This study evaluated the multi‐target anti‐obesity effects of Coula edulis nut extract (CEE) in high‐fat diet‐induced obese Wistar rats. Following 4 weeks of obesity induction, rats received oral CEE at 1 or 2 g/kg body weight, or orlistat for 5 weeks under continued high‐fat diet or normal diet conditions.

On the Tropical Nature of an Intense Mediterranean Cyclone in the Ocean‐Atmosphere System
Abstract The Mediterranean basin hosts a large number of cyclones every year. Among them, some rare cases named medicanes present similarities with tropical cyclones but their dynamical characteristics are debated. The ocean‐atmosphere dynamics of Medicane Ianos (2020) are studied here through km‐scale fully coupled ocean‐wave‐atmosphere simulations ...

Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel combinatorial optimization problem with ordering constraints, termed the Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem (OMTSP). The OMTSP integrates key elements from both the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the Ordered Median Location Problem.

Water Policies and Conflict Resolution of Public Participation Decision-Making Processes Using Prioritized Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) Operators [PDF]
[EN] There is a growing interest in environmental policies about how to implement public participation engagement in the context of water resources management. This paper presents a robust methodology, based on ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators, to conflict resolution decision-making problems under uncertain environments due to both ...
