A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Bandwidth Allocation under a User-Grouping Constraint by Shun-Pin Hsu, Shun-Liang Hsu, Alan Shenghan Tsai

“…In addition, some users form a group, and their joint decision space is also subject to constraints. Under the assumption that each user’s utility function satisfies some continuity and concavity conditions, the existence, uniqueness, and fairness, in some appropriate sense, of the Nash equilibrium point in the allocation game are proved. …”

Peripheral Contributions to Visceral Hyperalgesia by GF Gebhart

“…Primary hyperalgesia (arising from the site of injury) is generally considered to be due to sensitization of sensory receptors (eg, nociceptors) and perhaps activation of so-called ‘silent nociceptors’ by mediators released, synthesized or attracted to the site of tissue injury. Key questions associated with understanding visceral hyperalgesia relate to whether the viscera are innervated by nociceptors (ie, sensory receptors that respond selectively to noxious intensities of stimulation), whether visceral receptors and/or afferent fibres sensitize after tissue injury and whether silent nociceptors exist in the viscera. …”
