Hearing outcomes of cochlear implant recipients with pre-operatively identified cochlear dead regions.
Objectives: To determine how patients who did not meet UK TA166 NICE criteria for cochlear implantation (CI) but were subsequently found to have cochlear dead regions (DRs) performed with CI.Methods: A retrospective review of...
Withdrawal from Extended, Intermittent Access to A Highly Palatable Diet Impairs Hippocampal Memory Function and Neurogenesis
Antonio Ferragud, Clara Velázquez-Sánchez, Ali Al Abdullatif, Valentina Sabino, Pietro Cottone
Aug 19, 2020
BACKGROUND: Compulsive eating can be promoted by intermittent access to palatable food and is often accompanied by cognitive deficits and reduction in hippocampal plasticity. Here, we investigated the effects of intermittent...

The Effects of Fasting or Ketogenic Diet on Endurance Exercise Performance and Metabolism in Female Mice
The promotion of ketone body (KB) metabolism via ketosis has been suggested as a strategy to increase exercise performance. However, studies in humans and animals have yielded inconsistent results. The purpose of the current...

What Are the Lived Experiences of Strengths in Autistic Individuals? A Systematic Review and Thematic Synthesis
Background: Research about strengths in autistic individuals has often been based on informant perspectives. These may not align with the subjective experiences and perspectives of autistic people themselves. This study...

Additive energy and the metric Poissonian property
Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. Recent work has suggested a strong link
between the additive energy of $A$ (the number of solutions to $a_1 + a_2 = a_3
+ a_4$ with $a_i \in A$) and the metric Poissonian property, which is...

Cognitive Performance of Wild Eastern Gray Squirrels ( Sciurus carolinensis ) in Rural and Urban, Native, and Non-native Environments
Enhanced cognitive ability has been shown to impart fitness advantages to some species by facilitating establishment in new environments. However, the cause of such enhancement remains enigmatic. Enhanced cognitive ability may...
Tracking Changes of Hidden Food
Food availability may vary spatially and temporally within an environment. Efficiency in locating alternative food sources using spatial information (e.g., distribution patterns) may vary according to a species’ diet and...

Analogies between politics and pro-wrestling have a long pedigree and are almost always meant negatively. What if, however, pro-wrestling is standing on its head in such analogies and must be turned right side up again? Building...
Intestinal CD4+T Cell Responses to Food
Ainsley Lockhart
Jan 01, 0001
During routine digestion and absorption of food, massive quantities of diet-derived polypeptides pass through the intestine. The intestinal immune system must maintain tolerance to these dietary antigens while still protecting...

‘As I would do in my own research’
Undergraduate research (UR) is regarded as an impactful instructional practice, but implementing it in the curriculum is challenging. Faculty members’ approaches to the design of UR are under-explored due to the scarcity of...

An Analysis of the Willingness to the COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Shots among Urban Employees
Many studies have shown that urban workers may have a higher acceptance rate of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccine uptake compared to their rural counterparts. As Omicron spreads globally, the COVID-19 booster vaccination...
