Inter‐Individual Differences in T1, T2, and Proton Density Using Quantitative Synthetic Imaging for 1H‐MRS Quantification

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Metabolite concentrations can be determined from proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H‐MRS) data using water as an internal reference. This calculation requires tissue‐specific water T1 and T2 relaxation constants and proton density (PD).

Hyponatremia and Congestive Heart Failure: A Marker of Increased Mortality and a Target for Therapy

International Journal of Nephrology, 2011
Heart failure is one of the most common chronic medical conditions in the developed world. It is characterized by neurohormonal activation of multiple systems that can lead to clinical deterioration and significant morbidity and mortality. In this regard,

A gut-to-brain signal of fluid osmolarity controls thirst satiation. [PDF]

, 2019
Satiation is the process by which eating and drinking reduce appetite. For thirst, oropharyngeal cues have a critical role in driving satiation by reporting to the brain the volume of fluid that has been ingested1-12.

Evolutionary aspects in evaluating mutations in the melanocortin 4 receptor [PDF]

, 2007
More than 70 missense mutations have been identified in the human melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R), and many of them have been associated with obesity. In a number of cases, the causal link between mutations in MC4R and obesity is controversially discussed.

Maternal glucocorticoids have persistent effects on offspring social phenotype irrespective of opportunity for social buffering

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study tests whether early‐life maternal association buffers offspring from the effects of prenatal stress in a facultatively social lizard. Despite clear effects of maternal glucocorticoids on growth and social behaviour, social associations did not mitigate these effects, revealing limits to social buffering in this species.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

Transactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.
