THE transport of fluids in porous media is of importance in a wide range of areas, such as oil
recovery, heterogeneous catalysis and biological perfusion. The pulsed gradient spin-echo (…

Polymorphisms in the fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) are associated with human
obesity and obesity-prone behaviors, including increased food intake and a preference …

A NOVEL MRI METHOD diffusion tensor imaging—was used to compare the integrity of several
white matter fibre tracts in patients with probable Alzheimer's disease. Relative to normal …

The ability to maintain adequate nutrient intake is critical for survival. Complex interrelated
neuronal circuits have developed in the mammalian brain to regulate many aspects of feeding …

Even in the absence of an experimental effect, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
time series generally demonstrate serial dependence. This colored noise or endogenous …

It was recently observed that dehydration causes shrinkage of brain tissue and an associated
increase in ventricular volume. Negative effects of dehydration on cognitive performance …

The intra-class class correlation coefficient (ICC) is a prominent statistic to measure test–retest
reliability of fMRI data. It can be used to address the question of whether regions of high …

Sensory experience is influenced by emotional context. Although perception of emotion and
unpleasant visceral sensation are associated with activation within the insula and dorsal …

The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) assesses decision-making under initially ambiguous
conditions. Neuropsychological and neuroimaging data suggest, albeit inconsistently, the …

We report a combined experimental, theoretical, and simulation study of pulsed gradient
spinecho (PGSE) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) for fluid saturated porous media. A …
