Opposite effects of stress on effortful motivation in high and low anxiety are mediated by CRHR1 in the VTA

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, Jocelin Grosse, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, Ioannis Zalachoras

Individuals frequently differ in their behavioral and cognitive responses to stress. However, whether motivation is differently affected by acute stress in different individuals remains to be established. By exploiting natural variation in trait anxiety in ...

Music influences vividness and content of imagined journeys in a directed visual imagery task

Steffen Alexander Herff, Gabriele Cecchetti, Ken Jacques Alfonso Deguernel

Directed, intentional imagination is pivotal for self-regulation in the form of escapism and therapies for a wide variety of mental health conditions, such anxiety and stress disorders, as well as phobias. Clinical application in particular benefits from i ...

Initial effective stress controls the nature of earthquakes

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Fabian Barras

Modern geophysics highlights that the slip behaviour response of faults is variable in space and time and can result in slow or fast ruptures. However, the origin of this variation of the rupture velocity in nature as well as the physics behind it is still ...

Programming effects of peripubertal stress on spatial learning

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Stamatina Tzanoulinou

Exposure to adversity during early life can have profound influences on brain function and behavior later in life. The peripubertal period is emerging as an important time-window of susceptibility to stress, with substantial evidence documenting long-term ...

Anisotropic behaviour of shallow opalinus clay

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Alberto Minardi, Eleonora Crisci

Opalinus Clay shale, the selected host geomaterial of a high-level radioactive waste repository in Switzerland, was sourced at shallow depth in a borehole in the northern part of the country. Pairs of specimens, retrieved from the same depth were prepared ...

An energetic view of stress: Focus on mitochondria

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Energy is required to sustain life and enable stress adaptation. At the cellular level, energy is largely derived from mitochondria – unique multifunctional organelles with their own genome. Four main elements connect mitochondria to stress: 1) Energy is r ...

A cost-effective isogeometric approach for composite plates based on a stress recovery procedure

Pablo Antolin Sanchez

This paper introduces a cost-effective strategy to simulate the behavior of laminated plates by means of isogeometric 3D solid elements. Exploiting the high continuity of spline functions and their properties, a proper out-of-plane stress state is recovere ...

Constitutive differences in habituation of the glucocorticoid response to stress are related to variation in aggression and anxiety-related behaviors

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Sophie Elizabeth Walker, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut

Glucocorticoids coordinate responses that enable an individual to cope with stressful challenges and, additionally, mediate adaptation following cessation of a stressor. There are important individual differences in the magnitude of glucocorticoid responsi ...

Influence of geometrical imperfections and flaws at welds of steel liners on fatigue behavior of pressure tunnels and shafts in anisotropic rock

Alexandre Jean Pachoud

The recent development of high-strength (HSS) weldable steels has enlarged the range of design alternatives for the optimization of high-head steel-lined pressure tunnels and shafts (SLPT&S) in the hydropower industry. With the liberalization of the Europe ...

Brain metabolic alterations in mice subjected to postnatal traumatic stress and in their offspring

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Alberto Corcoba

Adverse environmental and social conditions early in life have a strong impact on health. They are major risk factors for mental diseases in adulthood and, in some cases, their effects can be transmitted across generations. The consequences of detrimental ...
