Intergenerational transfer of binge eating-like behavior: The additive impact of juvenile stress.

Binge eating (BE) is consuming large amounts of food in a short time, while experiencing loss of control over eating behavior. BE can be hereditary, and juvenile stress (JS) may contribute to its onset. We examined the impact of JS on BE-like behavior, in an animal model of intergenerational BE.

Biological performance of a novel bovine hydroxyapatite in a guided bone regeneration model: A preclinical study in a mandibular defect in dogs.

Objectives: This preclinical model study aims to evaluate the performance and safety of a novel hydroxyapatite biomaterial (Wishbone Hydroxyapatite, WHA) on guided bone regeneration compared to a commercially available deproteinized bovine bone mineral (Bio-Oss, BO).

Material And Methods: Twenty-four beagle dogs were allocated to three timepoint cohorts (4, 12, and 26 weeks) of eight animals each. In all animals, four critical-sized, independent wall mandibular defects were created (32 defects/cohort).
