Powerformer(R), a new high-voltage generator, was presented by ABB. It offers a direct connection to the power network without the need for a step-up transformer. In a sense, Powerformer incorporates into one unit the functions of both the conventional generator and the step-up transformer. Thanks to its ability to generate electricity at transmission voltage levels, a power plant utilizing Powerf
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been shown to be involved in the control of several neuroendocrine functions. Moreover, in animal models, NPY produces behavioral effects that are similar to those induced by anxiolytics. We studied NPY-like immunoreactivity (NPY-LI) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in two primary degenerative dementias, Alzheimer disease (AD, n = 34) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD, n = 22)
