Effects of exercise, with and without an associated energy deficit, on postprandial metabolism and appetite regulation
… might facilitate a tighter coupling between energy intake and expenditure, mediating more stable and healthy body weights, perhaps by inducing changes in appetite, energy intake and circulating concentrations of 'hunger' hormones. It does, however, remain unclear as to what extent these …

Characterising Futile Autophagosome Based Toxicity and its Implications in Disease
… into the underlying mechanisms revealed an energy deficit under these conditions. Since autophagosomes cannot be recycled at lysosomes here, their continued synthesis affords no survival benefits, and instead just serves to deplete cellular energy further. For this reason, we designate this …

Estudio de prefactibilidad para la instalación de una planta generadora de energía geotérmica
… This research work supports geothermal energy as a key technology to achieve a reliable energy transition in Peru. The pre-feasibility study for the installation of a geothermal power plant located in the northern part of the department of Tacna allows us to evaluate the technical, …

Delay of Spring Snowmelt due to Storm-Induced Changes in Snowpack, Columbia River Headwaters, Western Montana, USA
… but melt-runoff delays continue even after energy is again added to the snowpack. Following a storm episode, two energy barriers must be overcome before surface melt can drain through the snowpack: 1) cold content created by heat lost during the episode must be overcome, and 2) dry pore …

The metabolic responses of high intensity intermittent exercise in healthy untrained adults
… a healthy body weight relies on maintaining energy balance. Energy balance describes the relative energy intake (dietary) to the energy expenditure (cellular energy and physical activity). In order to decrease adiposity, energy balance needs to be shifted negative, heightening energy …

Pharmacological aspects of the inhibition of mammalian respiratory complex I
… liver toxicity. Complex I inhibition causes an energy deficit and can lead to adverse changes in the status of the mitochondrial [NADH]/[NAD+] pool and increased reactive oxygen species production, causing widespread damage. A library of molecules that are known candidates for causing complex …

Characterization of an iodine-based ionic liquid ion source and studies on ion fragmentation
… the remainder composed of solvated ions. The energy deficit of the ion beam is seen to be on the order of 15 eV, with full width at half maximum of about 12 eV. The angular intensity is estimated to be 0.65 tA sr- 1 . The energy signal from the BMI-I ILIS contained several features that …

AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE NUTRITIONAL HABITS OF ACADEMY PLAYERS AT A SINGLE ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE CLUB
… academy. Study one (Chapter 4) quantified the energy, macro and micronutrient intake of players from age groups under (U) 13 to U18 (7-day food diary, n = 59). Results showed players across all ages were in energy deficit, with low carbohydrate intake, and a large individual variability for …

Design and performance evaluation of lead-free inorganic perovskite solar cells for addressing Nigeria's energy crisis.
… with over 200 million people, faces a critical energy deficit, with approximately 45% of its population lacking access to electricity. To achieve energy sustainability, the country requires 160 GW of electricity. However, reliance on crude oil and natural-gas-fired power plants, which are often …

Nuclear resonance fluorescence in Si²⁸
… of the bombarding protons governs the exact energy of the ground state games available for absorption. The energy deficit which appears in emission and absorption is made up by the kinetic energy of the compound nucleus recoiling from the proton bombardment. Variation of the angle between the …

SIRT6 Overexpression Protects Against Diet-Induced Diabetes in Mice
… are believed to sense and respond to cellular energy deficit via their (NAD+)-dependent enzymatic activities including lysine deacetylation of a variety of cytosolic, mitochondrial and nuclear proteins (2). Initial studies involving SIRT6, one of three nuclear sirtuins, suggest that it may be …

Functional Dissection of Brainstem Circuitry
… generate adaptive behavior like foraging during energy deficit and escape from predation. How can survival circuits generate such autocratic control? Survival circuits principally affect global brain function in two ways: diffuse projection patterns and transmitter co-release. Through these two …

Identification and Delineation of Neuronal Pathways Underlying Hypophagia
… has evolved to push body weight towards an energy surplus rather than an energy deficit to better adapt to harsh environments.</p> <p>The second project goes beyond the hypothalamus, targeting an excitatory brain circuit from the basal forebrain (BF) to the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The …

Oligodendrocytes of the adult median eminence
… ME given its diverse roles in the regulation of energy balance, glucose homeostasis, and neuroendocrine function. Data presented in this thesis demonstrate that in contrast to the corpus callosum (a well- characterised white matter tract), new myelin forming OLs are generated at a high rate and …

Diet composition and perceptions around food in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus following a long-term low carbohydrate high fat diet
… lower than recommendations. Added sugar (0.5% of energy intake) and processed foods were seldom consumed. Daily energy intake was 1946.3 ± 807.2 kcal (436.7 ± 728.3 kcal. d-1 calculated energy deficit). Intermittent fasting (≥ 16 h. d-1) was followed by 61% of the group. From pre-LCHF to the time …

Predictors of Weight Loss in the Healthy Living Partnership to Prevent Diabetes: A Randomized Control Trial
… was to induce ≥7% weight loss through creating energy deficit by increasing physical activity and reducing caloric intake. The intervention consisted of weekly group meetings for 6 months and then monthly meetings for 18 months administered by Community Health Workers. The UCC comprised of two …

The Role of Energy in an Energy Constrained Economy
The thesis consists of three individual papers on energy and economic development focusing on the energy constrained economies. The first paper examines how energy subsidies influence the relationship between economic growth and electricity consumption. The study constructs a panel data set …

Neuronal cicuits and reinforcement mechanisms underlying feeding behaviour
… displayed similar modulation by states of energy deficit and signals of starvation, despite their apparent divergence in function. As a whole, this dissertation extends our understanding of the role of homeostatic neurons in food consumption and uncovers previously unappreciated functional …
