In the present study,we examined the effects of exposure to radiofrequency(RF)with intermediate frequency (IF) range at 40 kHz on immune response using a stress-induced immune suppression method and on concentrations of serum corticosterone in mice. We used antibody-forming cell (AFC) assay to evaluate the effects of RF radiation at 40 kHz on immune response in mice. The number of plaques forme...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether prior eating behavior characterized by dietary restraint alters responses in energy expenditure and substrate oxidation associated with a short-term, energy-restricted diet. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES A repeated-measures, 3-day diet-intervention study of adequate (125 kJ/kg of body weight) or restricted (62.5 kJ/kg) energy intake was conducted with 30 women...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a total restrained dominating set if every vertex in V is adjacent to a vertex in S and every vertex of V −S is adjacent to a vertex in V −S. The total restrained domination number of G, denoted by γtr(G), is the minimum cardinality of a total restrained dominating set of G. A unicyclic graph is a connected graph that contains precisely one cycle. We sho...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a restrained dominating set if every vertex in V − S is adjacent to a vertex in S and to a vertex in V − S. The restrained domination number of G, denoted by γr(G), is the minimum cardinality of a restrained dominating set of G. A unicyclic graph is a connected graph that contains precisely one cycle. We show that if U is a unicyclic graph of order n, th...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a restrained dominating set if every vertex not in S is adjacent to a vertex in S and to a vertex in V − S. The restrained domination number of G, denoted by γr(G), is the smallest cardinality of a restrained dominating set of G. It is known that if T is a tree of order n, then γr(T ) ≥ d(n+2)/3e. In this note we provide a simple constructive characteriz...

When confronted with an anxiety-producing threat to self-esteem, restrained eaters (dieters) increase their food consumption. The functional explanation suggests that increased eating temporarily counteracts or masks dysphoria for the restrained eater; externality or stimulus sensitivity theories propose that distress shifts the dieter's attention to external stimulus properties (e.g., taste) a...

Let G = (V, E) be a graph. A k-connected restrained dominating set is a set S ⊆ V , where S is a restrained dominating set and G[S] has at most k components. The k-connected restrained domination number of G, denoted by γ k r (G), is the smallest cardi-nality of a k-connected restrained dominating set of G. In this talk, I will give some exact values and sharp bounds for γ k r (G). Then the nec...

The current study examined the relationships of motor, nonplanning, and attentional impulsivity to external and emotional eating among restrained eaters. Data were collected from a female college sample of restrained eaters (N=90). Aspects of impulsivity and disordered eating were assessed using the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, Version 11, the Attentional Control Scale and the Dutch Eating Beha...

OBJECTIVES The primary purpose of this study was to determine the level of agitation that psychiatric patients exhibit upon arrival to the emergency department. The secondary purpose was to determine whether the level of agitation changed over time depending upon whether the patient was restrained or unrestrained. METHOD An observational study enrolling a convenience sample of 100 patients pr...
