Perspectives : do alcohol calories count ? 13
Chronic consumption of substantial amounts of alcohol is not associated with the expected effect on body weight. Isocaloric substitution ofcarbohydrates by ethanol results in weight loss, and addition of ethanol to an otherwise normal diet does not produce the expected weight gain.

We present evidence for an evolved sexually dimorphic adaptation that activates spatial memory and navigation skills in response to fruits, vegetables and other traditionally gatherable sessile food resources. In spite of extensive evidence for a male advantage on a wide variety of navigational tasks, we demonstrate that a simple but ecologically important shift in content can reverse this sex ...
متن کاملA tutorial on count regression and zero-altered count models for longitudinal substance use data.
Critical research questions in the study of addictive behaviors concern how these behaviors change over time: either as the result of intervention or in naturalistic settings. The combination of count outcomes that are often strongly skewed with many zeroes (e.g., days using, number of total drinks, number of drinking consequences) with repeated assessments (e.g., longitudinal follow-up after i...
متن کاملWhen rule-based models need to count
Rule-based modelers dislike direct enumeration of cases when more efficient means of enumeration are available. We present an extension of the Kappa language which attaches to agents a notion of level. We detail two encodings that are more concise than the former practice. Rule-based languages are a well-established framework for modeling proteinprotein interactions. Kappa [2,1] is a rule-based...
