Abstract: Little is known about the brain mechanisms underlying cancer‐associated weight loss (C‐WL) in humans despite this condition negatively affecting their quality of life and survival. We tested the hypothesis that patients with C‐WL have abnormal… read more here.

Abstract: The motilin agonist, erythromycin, induces gastric phase III of the migrating motor complex, which in turn generates hunger peaks. To identify the brain mechanisms underlying these orexigenic effects, 14 healthy women participated in a randomized,… read more here.
