Sleep deprivation disrupts hippocampal function and plasticity. In particular, long-term memory consolidation is impaired by sleep deprivation, suggesting that a specific critical period exists following learning during which sleep is necessary. To elucidate the impact of sleep deprivation on long-term memory consolidation and synaptic plasticity, long-term memory was assessed when mice were sl...

Abstract We contribute to the discussion on social exclusion interrelationships by examining relationship between material conditions and loneliness, as one potential marker of connections economic domain. Our analysis focuses a sample individuals aged 50+ in Survey Health Ageing Retirement Europe (SHARE). In its 5th wave, survey was extended include specific items related deprivation. use this...

conclusions the role of exercise is greater in the retention than the acquisition phase for recalling past experiences. background stress induced by sleep deprivation can cause degradation of learning in the acquisition phase, and low-intensity exercise can prevent the negative effects of stress. results the results showed that, after seven days of aerobic exercise on a treadmill, the experimen...

Child multidimensional deprivation and poverty is a key challenge to achieving sustainable development. The aim of this paper present apply new composite index for evaluating the progress towards eradicating child poverty: Multidimensional Deprivation Index (CMDI). This stems from foundational literature on that rooted in work started by UNICEF based seven core dimensions deprivation, while con...

OBJECTIVE Previous reports on the risk of stroke after androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer were largely based on Caucasians. We investigated the risk of ischemic stroke after androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer in the Chinese population. METHODS All Chinese prostate cancer patients who were treated primarily with radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy, with (androgen ...

Surplus energy is principally stored in white adipose tissue (WAT) as triacylglycerol and mobilized via lipolysis through norepinephrine (NE) released from sympathetic nervous system terminals innervating WAT. We demonstrated that central melanocortin receptor agonism provokes differential sympathetic drives across WAT pads and interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT). Here we tested for diffe...

Ocular dominance (OD) plasticity is a robust paradigm for examining the functional consequences of synaptic plasticity. Previous experimental and theoretical results have shown that OD plasticity can be accounted for by known synaptic plasticity mechanisms, using the assumption that deprivation by lid suture eliminates spatial structure in the deprived channel. Here we show that in the mouse, r...
