Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) affects rodents' stress-related behaviors, such as anxiety-like behavior or fear conditioning. However, previous studies have investigated the effect of intracerebroventricular, but not hippocampal, injection of this PAC1R-selective antagonist (PACAP-6-38) on anxiety-like behavior. However, it has been reported that administration of PACAP-6-38 to the dorsal hippocampus reduces the fear response in a fear conditioning test.

Clavicle emergency fixation can prevent fractured end from piercing heart and lung organs, which is crucial for wounded life. Clavicle with complex structure, great individual differences, and adjacent to important organs, which places high-requirements on performance of fixation materials. Developing advanced clavicle fixation material is a prominent hot-topic in the field of emergency-engineering.

Respiration is governed by a central rhythm and pattern generator, which has the pre-Bötzinger complex as the inspiratory oscillator initiating the coordinated activity of several respiratory muscles, including the diaphragm, intercostals, and upper airway muscles. The diaphragm is the main inspiratory pump muscle driving inflow, whereas dilator upper airway muscles, such as tongue muscles, reduce airway resistance during inspiration. Breathing exhibits a marked state-dependent pattern attributed to changes in neuromodulatory tone in respiratory-related brain regions, including decreases in noradrenaline and serotonin and increases in acetylcholine levels during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.

Our body temperature is normally kept within a narrow range of 1°C. For example, if our body temperature rises, such as in a hot environment or due to strenuous exercise, our thermoregulatory system will trigger a powerful heat defense response with vasodilation, sweating, and lowered metabolism. During fever, which often involves body temperatures of up to 41°C, this heat defense mechanism is apparently inhibited; otherwise, the rising body temperature would be immediately combated, and fever would not be allowed to develop.
