DOI: 10.1002/jeab.290
Abstract: Hens responded under multiple fixed-ratio schedules with equal response requirements and either a 1-s or a 6-s reinforcer. Upcoming reinforcer size was indicated by key color. Components were presented in a quasirandom series so that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14740338.2017.1288715
Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive disease with increasing prevalence in most countries. The majority of patients with T2D have inadequate glycaemic control, which increases the risk of diabetic complications later in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/mbp.0000000000000356
Abstract: Background Fixed-ratio and slope-based algorithms are used to derive oscillometric blood pressure (BP). However, a paucity of published data exists assessing the accuracy of these methods. Our objective was to determine the accuracy of fixed-ratio… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/dom.14095
Abstract: Over 10 million people in Japan have known or suspected type 2 diabetes (T2D), and this number is expected to rise. Although many people require therapy escalation because of the progressive nature of T2D, this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2019/6567952
Abstract: This paper introduces a two-period, pricing policy under duopoly competition between two firms offering an identical product to consumers who are intertemporal utility maximization. Firms have equal inventories of faultlessly replaceable and perishable products. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12931-020-01450-9
Abstract: Background Currently, the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not uniform, COPD guidelines recommend fixed ratio (FR), whereas ATS and ERS define airflow obstruction based on lower limit of normal (LLN). We aim… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0286388
Abstract: The vertebrate eye lens grows incrementally, adding layers of elongated, tightly packed lens fiber cells at the outer margin of the lens. With subsequent growth, previously-deposited fiber cells degrade, leaving a region of fully denucleated… read more here.

DOI: 10.2337/dc18-1091
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Healthy pancreatic β-cells secrete the hormones insulin and amylin in a fixed ratio. Both hormones are lacking in type 1 diabetes, and postprandial glucose control using insulin therapy alone is difficult. This study tested… read more here.

Inhibition of Catechol-O-methyltransferase Does Not Alter Effort-Related Choice Behavior in a Fixed Ratio/Concurrent Chow Task in Male Mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2020.00073
Abstract: Effort-related choice (ERC) tasks allow animals to choose between high-value reinforcers that require high effort to obtain and low-value/low-effort reinforcers. Dopaminergic neuromodulation regulates ERC behavior. The enzyme catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) metabolizes synaptically-released dopamine. COMT is the… read more here.
