Males and females respond differently to controllability and antidepressant treatment.
BACKGROUND Women are much more likely to suffer from stress-related mental illness than men; yet few, if any, animal models for such sex differences exist. Previously, we reported that exposure to an acute stressor enhances learning in male rats yet severely impairs learning in female rats. Here, we tested whether these opposite effects in males versus females could be prevented by establishing...
متن کاملBMI can influence adult males’ and females’ airway hyperresponsiveness differently
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Epidemiological data indicate that obesity is a risk factor for asthma, but scientific literature is still debating the association between changes in body mass index (BMI) and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). METHODS This study aimed at evaluating the influence of BMI on AHR, in outpatients with symptoms suggestive of asthma.4,217 consecutive adult subjects (2,439 M...
متن کاملPyloric Stenosis - Do Males and Females Present Differently?
AIMS In infants with pyloric stenosis we explored (a) if males develop symptoms and present to hospital earlier than females and (b) does any delay in presentation influence the severity of metabolic derangement. METHOD A retrospective casenote review of 99 infants who underwent pyloromyotomy (with confirmation of pyloric stenosis) over a two year period (Jan 2006-Dec 2007) in our hospital. T...
متن کاملMales with high genetic similarity to females sire more offspring in sperm competition in Peron's tree frog Litoria peronii.
Recent work has confirmed that genetic compatibility among mates can be an important determinant of siring success in sperm competition experiments and in free-ranging populations. Most of this work points towards mate choice of less related mates. However, there may also be the potential for mate choice for intermediate or even genetically similar mates to prevent outbreeding depression or hyb...
متن کاملThe role of nocturnal vision in mate choice: females prefer conspicuous males in the European tree frog (Hyla arborea).
Nocturnal frog species rely extensively on vocalization for reproduction. But recent studies provide evidence for an important, though long overlooked, role of visual communication. In many species, calling males exhibit a conspicuous pulsing vocal sac, a signal bearing visually important dynamic components. Here, we investigate female preference for male vocal sac coloration-a question hithert...
