This paper proposes a consensus-based formation tracking scheme for multi-robot systems utilizing the Negative Imaginary (NI) theory. The proposed applies to class of networked robotic that can be modelled as group single integrator agents with stable uncertainties connected via an undirected graph. NI/SNI property facilitates design distributed Strictly (SNI) controller achieve desired trackin...

Proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1 ), impairs long-term potentiation (LTP) in hippocampus, a synaptic model of memory, while in spinal dorsal horn TNFis found to induce LTP of C-fiber evoked field potentials in rats with nerve injury. In the present work the role of IL-1 in the spinal LTP of C-fiber evoked field potentials, which is ...

Harpagophytum procumbens, also known as Devil's Claw, has historically been used to treat a wide range of conditions, including pain and arthritis. The study was designed to investigate whether H. procumbens extracts exhibit analgesic effects in plantar incision and spared nerve injury (SNI) rats. The whole procedure was performed on male SD rats. To evaluate pain-related behavior, we performed...

The current study was designed to investigate whether edible brown seaweed Ecklonia cava extracts exhibits analgesic effects in plantar incision and spared nerve injury (SNI) rats. To evaluate pain-related behavior, we performed the mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal hypersensitivity tests measured by von Frey filaments and a hot/cold plate analgesia meter. Pain-related behavior ...
