Objective
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified fasting therapy, and a retrospective study was conducted to analyze changes in clinical indicators of hospitalized fasting patients.
Methods
A total of 2054 hospitalized fasting patients were enrolled in this observational study. All participants underwent 7 days of modified fasting therapy. The clinical efficacy...
The process of ethanol anticipation is a particularly important phenomenon that can determine subsequent drug-taking behavior. Recent studies suggest that systems within the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), during anticipation, may contribute to the goal-directed seeking of ethanol. The current investigation examined the possibility that the opioid peptide enkephalin (ENK), known to mediate some of...
Flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is a typical discrete event dynamic systems (DEDS) and Petri-Net has been widely used in the field of modeling a FMS because of its intrinsic features. In this paper, the Petri-net modeling approach is firstly introduced. A model of FMS is created by using Timed Petri nets; the algorithm is discussed based a job needs of FMS with 3 resources and 3 jobs. The analysis...
Background: Recent reports support the involvement of hypothalamic orexigenic peptides in stimulating ethanol intake. Our previous studies have examined the effects of ethanol on hypothalamic peptide systems of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and identified a positive feedback loop in which PVN peptides, such as enkephalin and galanin, stimulate ethanol intake and ethanol, in turn, stimulates the...
