Described are methods, devices, and systems for a novel, inexpensive, easy to use therapy for a number of disorders. Described are methods and devices to treat disorders that involves no medication. Methods and devices described herein use alternating magnetic fields to gently “tune” the brain and affect mood, focus, and cognition of subjects.

This invention relates to the field of therapeutic agents for the treatment of Age-Associated Memory Impairment (AAMI). In particular, the present invention utilizes compositions comprising at least one compound capable of elevating ketone body concentrations in a mammal (e.g., ketogenic compounds), administered in an amount effective for treatment or prevention of loss of cognitive function caused by reduced neuronal metabolism in AAMI. In one embodiment, the composition includes medium chain triglycerides (MCT). In another embodiment, the compositions are administered in the presence of carbohydrate. The present invention also relates to oral dosage forms, in particular, a nutritional drink comprising at least one compound capable of elevating ketone body concentrations in a mammal.

A method and device for treating neurological disorders involving the application of noninvasive, regional brain thermal stimulation to a region of a patient's head associated with a subject neurological disorder. The brain thermal stimulation method and device alters the brain function in the region of the brain underlying the region of the patient's head to which the brain cooling is applied. The method can also include the steps of adjusting the temperature and timing of the thermal stimulation process to optimize the impact on the subject disorder. The brain thermal stimulation device is comprised of a localized means for cooling or warming a desired region of a patient's brain.

Described are methods, devices, and systems for a novel, inexpensive, easy to use therapy for treatment of depression. Described are methods and devices to treat depression that involves no medication. Methods and devices described herein use alternating magnetic fields to gently “tune” the brain and affect symptoms of depression.

The invention discloses a method for improving survival rate of triangular bream in long-distance transport. Anti-stress effect of vitamin C, sedative effect of low-concentration clove oil and antibacterial effect of penicillin sodium are applied, metabolism and stress reaction of fish fry in transportation process are effectively reduced, and injury and infection of the fish fry in the transportation process can be effectively prevented, so that the survival rate is improved.

The invention discloses a preparing method of natural peel acid with flowing add muscle alcohol to absolve amylaceum repressible craft in ferment course and a new bacterial strain, which comprises the following steps: culturing fungus with generating natural abscisic acid in the first grade liquid culture medium; seeding the cultured first grade on the second liquid culture medium to culture; flowed-adding supplement material into the third grade liquid culture medium and muscle alcohol at the same time; proceeding yeast; collecting abscisic acid from the ferment culturing liquid.

The invention provides a juicy peach storage method, comprising the following steps: sorting and pre-cooling the fruits in a house at 20 degree after picking up the mature juicy peach fruits; low temperature processing the fruits using program cooling method; inducing the fruit tissue cold-damage endurance capability using a certain low temperature; storing the fruits at low temperature. The fruits are processed by suitable low temperature and then stored at low temperature, thus the fruit respiratory rate, fruit metabolism, fruit ripening process can be effectively decelerated and the energy consumption can be also reduced, the fruit storage time can be prolonged, at the same time the occurence of the cold-damage of the soft melting fruits during storage period and fruit decayed rate can be reduced and the storage fruit quality and marketability can be kept. The storage method has features of reasonable design, convenient operation, lower device requirement and less cost and is suitable for large-scale operation and demonstration and generalization. The storage method also can be applied for other climacteric, chilling-sensitive horticultural products.

The present disclosure is related to a method of identifying a subject with increased sensitivity to warfarin. The method includes identifying a CYP2C9*8 polymorphism in the subject, wherein the presence of said polymorphism is indicative of a patient with increased sensitivity to warfarin relative to a subject having the corresponding wild-type allele.
