In mammals, leptin is a peripheral satiety factor that inhibits feeding by regulating a variety of appetite-related hormones in the brain. However, most of the previous studies examining leptin in fish feeding were performed with mammalian leptins, which share very low sequence homologies with fish leptins. To elucidate the function and mechanism of endogenous fish leptins in feeding regulation...

Using example emergency feeding a national crisis, stark difference school meal planning for post-World War 2 emergencies when compared COVID-19 crisis discussed. Throu...

we introduce and  study  fuzzy (co-)inner product and fuzzy(co-)norm of hyperspaces. in this regard by considering  the notionof hyperspaces, as a generalization of vector spaces, first we willintroduce the notion of fuzzy (co-)inner product in hyperspaces and will apply it to formulate the notions offuzzy (co-)norm and fuzzy (co-)orthogonality  in hyperspaces. inparticular, we will prove that ...

background: children with cleft lip and palate generally suffer from inappropriate and inadequate feeding, resulting in insufficient weight gain leading to malnutrition and poor growth. we aimed to evaluate the nutritional and growth status of cleft lip and palate children before and after reconstructive cleft lip and palate surgery. methods: all cleft lip and palate children aging from birth u...

objectives: feeding is an essential function which affects quality of life of the intellectually disabled (id) persons. approximately 80% of the severe and profound mentally retarded population have some feeding difficulties. this study aimed to determine the prevalence of feeding problems in children with id. methods: in this cross-sectional descriptive study, 144 individuals with intellectual...

introduction: the incidence of malnutrition in hospitalized patients is reported to be high. in particular, patients with esophageal cancer are prone to malnutrition, due to preoperative digestive system dysfunctions and short-term non-oral feeding postoperatively. selection of an appropriate method for feeding in the postoperative period is important in these patients.   materials and methods:...
