A NOVEL VARIABLE DELAY GO/NO-GO TASK TO STUDY ATTENTION, MOTIVATION AND WORKING MEMORY IN THE HEAD-FIXED RODENT [V2; REF STATUS: INDEXED, HTTP://F1000R.ES/1SN]

A novel variable delay Go/No-Go task to study attention, motivation and working memory in the head-fixed rodent [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/1sn]

In order to parse the causal elements underlying complex behaviors and decision-making processes, appropriate behavioral methods must be developed and used in concurrence with Stools molecular, pharmacological, and electrophysiological approaches.Presented is a protocol for a novel Go/No-Go behavioral paradigm to study the brain attention and motiv

Lipid emulsion-mediated reversal of toxic-dose aminoamide local anesthetic-induced vasodilation in isolated rat aorta

BackgroundIntravenous lipid emulsion has been used to treat systemic toxicity of local anesthetics.The goals of this in vitro study were to determine the ability of two lipid emulsions (Intralipid® and Lipofundin® MCT/LCT) to reverse toxic dose local anesthetic-induced vasodilation in isolated rat aortas.MethodsIsolated endothelium-denuded aortas

An In Vitro Study of Local Oxygen Therapy as Adjunctive Antimicrobial Therapeutic Option for Patients with Periodontitis

Periodontitis is a common global disease caused by bacterial dysbiosis leading to tissue destruction, and it is strongly associated with anaerobic bacterial colonization.Therapeutic strategies such as oxygen therapy have been developed to positively influence the dysbiotic microbiota, and the use of oxygen-releasing substances may offer an added be
