Family interactions and cortisol expression in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

Esslinger, Jacqueline ; Schöbi, Dominik (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2020.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is highly prevalent in children and adolescents worldwide. Typical symptoms include inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity. Comorbidity with other disorders, such as Oppositional-Defiant Disorder (ODD) or Conduct Disorder (CD) are very common. Due to child symptoms, families of children with ADHD are prone to impaired family functioning....

Potential for endozoochorous seed dispersal by sheep and goats : Risk of weed seed transport via animal faeces

Oveisi, Mostafa ; Ojaghi, Ahmad ; Rahimian Mashhadi, Hamid ; Müller‐Schärer, Heinz ; Reza Yazdi, Kamran ; Pourmorad Kaleibar, Behnaz ; Soltani, Elias

In: Weed Research, 2021, vol. 61, no. 1, p. 1-12

Endozoochory is known as an important mechanism for the spread of weeds. We carried out experiments to assess the fate of seeds of several weed species (Convolvulus arvensis, Cuscuta campestris, Rumex crispus, Hordeum spontaneum and Sorghum halepense) after passing through the gut of sheep and goat. Eighteen animals of both sheep and goat received diet mixed with seeds of the weed species or ...

Phosphorylation and circadian molecular timing

Brenna, Andrea ; Albrecht, Urs

In: Frontiers in Physiology, 2020, vol. 11, p. -

Endogenous circadian rhythms are biological processes generated by an internal body clock. They are self-sustaining, and they govern biochemical and physiological processes. However, circadian rhythms are influenced by many external stimuli to reprogram the phase in response to environmental change. Through their adaptability to environmental changes, they synchronize physiological responses...
