THE EFFECTS OF LISDEXAMFETAMINE DIMESYLATE ON EATING BEHAVIOUR AND HOMEOSTATIC, REWARD AND COGNITIVE PROCESSES IN WOMEN WITH BINGE-EATING SYMPTOMS: AN EXPERIMENTAL MEDICINE STUDY

The effects of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate on eating behaviour and homeostatic, reward and cognitive processes in women with binge-eating symptoms: an experimental medicine study

Abstract Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) is the only drug currently approved by the FDA for the treatment of Binge-Eating Disorder (BED), but little is known about the behavioural mechanisms that underpin the efficacy of LDX in treating BED.We examined the behavioural and neural effects of an acute dose of LDX (50 mg) in 22 women with binge-eatin

Echoes in correlated neural systems

Correlations are employed in modern physics to explain microscopic and macroscopic phenomena, like the fractional quantum Hall effect and the Mott insulator state in high temperature superconductors and ultracold atoms.Simultaneously probed neurons in the intact brain reveal correlations between their activity, an important measure to study informa

Reconstruction of the Second Metatarsal with Nonvascularised Fibular Graft following En-bloc Resection for Giant Cell Tumour: A Case Report

Giant cell tumour in the metatarsal of a skeletally immature person is uncommon.Adequate surgical resection in this region can be difficult Surcingles to achieve as there is little space between the rays of the foot.Furthermore, there is the challenge of restoring the metatarsophalangeal articulation after resection of the tumor.We describe a techn
