Sixty patients meeting Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.: American Psychiatric Association, 1994) criteria for generalized social phobia were assigned to cognitive therapy (CT), fluoxetine plus self-exposure (FLU + SE), or placebo plus self-exposure (PLA + SE). At posttreatment (16 weeks), the medication blind was broken. CT and FLU + SE patients then entered a 3-mo...

The functionalized Cahn-Hilliard (FCH) free energy models interfacial energy in amphiphilic phase separated mixtures. Its minimizers encompass a rich class of morphologies with detailed inner structure, including bilayers, pore networks, pearled pores and micelles. We address the existence and stability of single-curvature bilayer structures in d ≥ 2 space-dimensions in the strong functionaliza...

In this paper, we study the effect of electroweak sphaleron transition and phase (EWPT) in balancing baryon excess stable quarks 4th generation. Sphaleron transitions between baryons, leptons family establish a definite relationship value sign asymmetry. This provides an U¯ antiquarks, forming dark atoms—the bound state (U¯U¯U¯) anti-quark cluster primordial helium nucleus. If EWPT is second or...

In arid and semi-arid regions of the world bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield is highlylimited due to late season heat stress, mostly occurring during the reproductive phase. Hence thecurrent study was conducted to evaluate the effect of late season heat stress on grain yield andyield components of 20 spring bread wheat cultivars. For this purpose, a stripe block experimentincluding four ...

Hypothalamic orexin neurons project to the hindbrain, and 4th-ventricle intracerebroventricular (4th-icv) injection of orexin-A treatment increases food intake. We assessed the effects of hindbrain orexin-A and the orexin-1-receptor antagonist SB334867 on meal pattern in rats consuming standard chow. When injected 4th-icv shortly before dark onset, lower doses of orexin-A increased food intake ...
