Inhibition of peripheral CB1 receptors modulates food intake and metabolic efficiency in obesity independently of the gut–brain vagal axis

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Obesity involves profound disruptions in neuronal circuits, neuroendocrine communication and the endocannabinoid system. While global blockade of cannabinoid CB1 receptors improves metabolism, its clinical use is limited by neuropsychiatric side effects.

Conservation implications of low contemporary connectivity along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge in hydrothermal vent gastropods

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Polymetallic sulfide deposits produced at hydrothermal vent fields are targets for mining exploitation along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge, threatening the functioning and resilience of vent ecosystems that provide multiple ecosystem services. Knowledge about connectivity between vents will inform conservation practices.

Improving Performance of Side Weirs Using Groups of Vane Plates or Piles [PDF]

آب و فاضلاب, 2011
Weirs are among the most common hydraulic structures that have been used for centuries by hydraulic engineers for flow measurement, energy dissipation, flow diversion, regulation of flow depth, and flood passage.

Epidermoid cyst as differential diagnosis for spherical keratoma: What do we know?

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This article briefly presents the case of a space‐occupying coronary band mass that raised the question of how one can differentiate between two uncommonly seen but now commonly paired differential diagnoses and prompted a review of the relevant literature.

Discharge modeling and characteristic analysis of semi-circular side weir based on the soft computing method

Journal of Hydroinformatics
In this study, a support vector machine (SVM) and three optimization algorithms are used to develop a discharge coefficient (Cd) prediction model for the semi-circular side weir (SCSW).

Site Fidelity, Depth Preference and Vertical Movement Patterns of Lentic and Lotic European Catfish Silurus glanis

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

Neurodiversity and intersectionality in the workplace: A narrative review and research agenda

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Neurodiversity has important implications for individuals and organizations as an increasingly salient but under‐researched dimension of diversity in the workplace. In this article, we provide an interdisciplinary review of neurodiversity research through the lens of intersectionality, with a particular focus on the potential ways ...

Analysis of discharge characteristics of a symmetrical stepped labyrinth side weir based on global sensitivity

Journal of Hydroinformatics
In this paper, the discharge coefficient prediction model for this structure in a subcritical flow regime is first established by extreme learning machine (ELM) and Bayesian network, and the model's performance is analyzed and verified in detail.

Flow Over Side Weirs in Rectangular and Circular Channels

Water Science and Technology, 1988
Flow over side weirs in rectangular and circular channels is discussed. Numerical models are obtained from energy principles and are solved by a finite difference method. The results are presented in diagrammatic form for practical use. It is shown that rectangular channel side weir procedures cannot be used for obtaining approximate water surface ...

Distinctive gene expression in the reduced first thoracic legs of a nymphalid butterfly

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Transcriptome analysis reveals that the small non‐walking front legs of a butterfly have distinct gene expression to the four walking legs. Reduced front legs express a gene with putative mechanosensory roles, a blue‐sensitive opsin and two homeobox genes.
