OBJECTIVE Obesity is a complex condition involving biological, psychological, sociocultural and environmental components. Impulsivity seems to be a particularly important factor. Whiteside and Lynam recently proposed dividing impulsivity into four separate dimensions: Urgency, lack of Premeditation, lack of Perseverance and Sensation Seeking (associated with a tendency to exaggerate the impact ...

Cattle and buffalo encounter several reproductive problems during their productive life. Among various reproductive problems, Anoestrus and Repeat breeding are the two important problems which reduce fertility as well as productivity of the animals. A healthy uterus is the basis for high submission and conception rates. Vaginal discharge of animals may be turbid, thick and mucopurulent due to u...

The pair of articles presented by the International Society for Research on Impulsivity address the definition of, recommendations for, and future directions for research on two constructs related to impulsivity: Choice impulsivity (CI) and Rapid Response Impulsivity (RRI). As has been well-documented elsewhere, the construct of impulsivity encompasses multiple different dispositions to rash ac...

BACKGROUND Evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative CT scanning. The purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes' guiding distal femur rotational align...

outgroup comparison, it would be interesting to find pleurodont tooth attachment in the hatchling second and third generation teeth. Such was not the case, however, except perhaps for the premaxillary teeth (of which there are three on each side), where the distinction of pleurodonty and acrodonty becomes somewhat blurred. Harrison (1901, 1901-1902) noted a variable and vestigial vomerine denti...
