During functional magnetic resonance imaging studies of meditation the cortical salience detecting and executive networks become active during "awareness of mind wandering," "shifting," and "sustained attention." The anterior cingulate (AC) is activated during "awareness of mind wandering." The AC modulates both the peripheral sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the central locus coeruleus (LC...

Objective(s): This study investigated the role of locus coeruleus (LC) nucleus TRPV1 receptors (TRPV1r) in the expression and development of morphine physical dependence by intra-LC administration of AMG9810 (selective TRPV1r antagonist) in male Wistar rats. Materials and Methods: For assessing the development of morphine dependence, AMG9810 (0.0...

During routine state space circuit analysis of an arbitrarily connected set of nodes representing a lossless LC network, a matrix was formed that was observed to implicitly capture connectivity of the nodes in a graph similar to the conventional adjacency matrix, but in a slightly different manner. This matrix has only 0, 1 or -1 as its elements. A sense of direction (of the graph formed by the...

purpose: the cataloging in publication (cip) is a vital and reliable sources for cataloging in many libraries. for this reason, the current study examines the extent of accuracy of lc classification numbers presented in cips' records of 155 persian books cataloged in the faculty of veterinary medicine library of university of tehran. methodology: using content analysis method the cips of 1...

background : mosquitoes transmit serious human diseases, causing millions of death every year. vector control is facing a threat due to the emergence of resistance to synthetic insecticides. insecticides of botanical origin may serve as suitable alternative biocontrol techniques in the future. nine different locally available medicinally important plants suspected to posse larvicidal property w...

The trend of land cover (LC) and land cover change (LCC), both in time and space, was investigated at the Simen Mountains National Park (SMNP), a World Heritage Site located in northern Ethiopia, between 1984 and 2003 using Geographical Information System (GIS) and remote sensing (RS). The objective of the study was to generate spatially and temporally quantified information on land cover dynam...

introduction: this study compared apical dye penetration using lateral condensation technique (lc) and lc technique with a reciprocal handpiece (mechanical lateral condensation or mlc) as a new method. materials and methods: forty-eight human extracted straight canine teeth were used. after crown amputation, the teeth were randomly divided into four experimental groups of 10 teeth each and two ...

abstractl-carnitine (lc) is an antioxidant with the ability to promote the growth in vitro embryo.objective: the goal was to evaluate the effect of lc on some indicators of embryo development and blastocyst quality including zona pellucid (zp) thickness, the hatching of blastocysts and their cell numbers.materials and methods: mouse embryos were randomly divided into five groups and incubated w...
