Lesions of glutamatergic afferents to the nucleus accumbens have been reported to block psychostimulant-induced behavioral sensitization. However, thalamic glutamatergic projections to the nucleus accumbens have received little attention in the context of psychostimulant actions. We examined the effects of acute amphetamine and cocaine administration on expression of Fos protein in the thalamic...

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rather uncommon disease, although the growing use of non-invasive diagnostic techniques has increased the frequency with which it is diagnosed. PVT can occur in patients with malignancies, myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) and liver cirrhosis, but several other conditions may also act as predisposing factors [1]. In Internal and Emergency Medicine, Fimognari a...

Traditional fossil fuels lead to environmental problems and are also depleting. A significant portion of global energy consumption is due to building’s air conditioning. Nowadays there is a great attention toward renewable and sustainable energy sources to support the buildings energy requirements. In this study, a solar cooling machine was designed for a three-floor residential building under ...

In this paper; we have reviewed different type of frequency calibration and tuning design, independent from PVT variation. Almost every frequency synthesizer faces these natural process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variation in modern application design. Generating an accurate frequency reference is desirable, and as it often require, minimum time to achieve optimal tuning frequency and less...

Current study is aiming to find a more suitable behavioral fatigue index for Air Traffic Controllers(ATC) using PVT test and self-assessment questionnaires as tools, gives these tests before after ATC duty. Through questionnaire, this finding indicates hit rate response time (the first 20% trials) of can be potential since we found 2min air traffic controller(ATC) duty significantly longer than...

Acute portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare clinical condition that can cause portal hypertension and bowel infarction. Early diagnosis and treatment of PVT is crucial for the restoration of portal venous flow and reduction of morbidity and mortality. We report a successful treatment of acute PVT which was seen following splenectomy, utilizing catheter directed transhepatic thrombolysis. No co...

This article reviews the anatomical connections of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) and discusses some of the connections by which the PVT could influence behavior. The PVT receives neurochemically diverse projections from the brainstem and hypothalamus with an especially strong innervation from peptide producing neurons. Anatomical evidence is also presented which suggests tha...

Module temperature has a role in determining PV module's performance. The purpose of this paper is to estimate the Joule heating photovoltaic (PV) module by comparing during PV-On (electricity generation) and PV-Off (without electricity generation). was less evaluated due simplifying formulation, which easier implement experimental observation as proposed work. experiment collected distribution...
