Rat's Anticipation of Diurnal
نویسنده
چکیده
Rats, confined either to Skinner boxes or to activity wheels, were fed at regularly scheduled feeding times which were either diurnal, i.e., every 24 hr., or a-diurnal, i.e., every 19 or 29 hr. Even though the a-diurnal Ss had been born, reared, and tested under 19or 29-hr, schedules to provide further support for the anticipation of feeding, they failed to show such an effect. The fact that the diurnal Ss showed both increased running and increased bar pressing in the hours just before feeding indicates that when such an anticipation occurs, it is governed by a 24-hr, biological clock rather than being based upon deprivation produced stimuli.

Influence of menarche on the relation between diurnal cortisol production and ventral striatum activity during reward anticipation.
Adolescence is characterized by an increase in risk-taking and reward-seeking behaviors. In other populations, increased risk taking has been associated with tighter coupling between cortisol production and ventral striatum (VS) activation during reward anticipation; this relation has not yet been examined, however, as a function of adolescent development. This study examined the influence of p...

The effects of an anticipated challenge on diurnal cortisol secretion.
In healthy, non-challenged individuals, the secretion of cortisol typically follows a diurnal profile characterized by a peak in the period following waking (cortisol awakening response) and a gradual decline throughout the day. In addition, cortisol secretion is increased in response to acutely stressful stimuli, particularly stressors involving social evaluation. The current study is the firs...

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the diurnal intraocular pressure fluctuations under dehydration conditions and the relationship between the intraocular pressure fluctuations and blood pressure. Methods: The intraocular pressures (IOP), body weights, as well as systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP, DBP) of 36 fasting healthy volunteers were recorded at 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m...
