Background: Peptide YY (PYY), a gut hormone that inhibits appetite, has been linked to the development of obesity. Objective: This study investigated the nutritional regulation of PYY after 7 d of overfeeding (70% above normal energy requirements) in normal-weight, overweight, and obese men. Design: Sixty-nine men (aged 19–29 y) participated in the study. We analyzed the relation between fastin...

Conventional database benchmarks, such as the TPC-C and TPC-H, are extremely computationally demanding, pushing databases to their limits as they simulate the operations of real applications. However, this computational intensity demands powerful, costly server hardware, limiting the availability of these benchmarks to only those who can afford such servers. For many researchers interested in e...

Paenibacillus sp. P22 is a Gram-negative facultative anaerobic endospore-forming bacterium isolated from poplar hybrid 741 (♀[Populus alba × (P. davidiana + P. simonii) × P. tomentosa]). This bacterium shows strong similarities to Paenibacillus humicus, and important growth-promoting effects on in vitro grown explants of poplar hybrid 741 have been described.
