| Abstract | Obesity, with 300,000 deaths and a $75 billion economic burden per year is the second leading cause of death after tobacco in the United States. Obesity arises from an imbalance in the energy homeostasis system. Among several hypothalamic regions that control this homeostatic system, the ventrolmedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH) stands out as a target for the development of a new clinical application in which deep brain stimulation (DBS) could be used to treat obesity. We have assembled a system capable of following in real-time the resting energy expenditure (REE) in response to DBS in the VMH. In this manuscript, we discuss a preliminary analysis of the DBS parameters needed to efficiently modulate energy expenditure. Our findings show that DBS in the VMH can increases the REE without affecting the mechanical energy expenditure (MEE) in a manner that appears to be frequency dependent. Our overall objective is to analyze the stimulation parameters of DBS in the VMH so that the feasibility of a clinical application for morbid obesity can be assessed |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
