Sex differences in obesity: X chromosome dosage as a risk factor for increased food intake, adiposity and co-morbidities.

abstract：:Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE), which represents the early stage of this condition, is not clinically apparent and is prevalent in up to 80% of patients. The poor outcomes of MHE encouraged us to identify more simple methods for early diagnosis of MHE. To this purpose, we evaluated the contemporary manifestation...

Within 15 min following observation, naltrexone preferentially suppressed the linear locomotion at the 10 and 30 mg/kg doses. The results suggest that naltrexone selectively disrupts the linear locomot...
