Hyaline cartilage is a strong and flexible connective tissue found throughout the human body. It provides important structural and functional support for the nose, ribs, larynx, and trachea. Due to the avascular nature of the hyaline cartilage, its defects or lesions are non-regeneratable and...

Arthritis in the Canadian Aboriginal population: north-south differences in prevalence and correlates
Download2010
Ng, Carmina, Chatwood, Susan, Young, T. Kue
"Background: Information on arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders among Aboriginal people is sparse. Survey data show that arthritis and rheumatism are among the most commonly reported chronic conditions and their prevalence is higher than among non-Aboriginal people. Objective: To...

Computational support systems for prediction and characterization of protein crystallization outcomes
DownloadFall 2013
Analysis of protein structures may reveal their function, regulation and interactions. Almost 90% of the known protein structures were solved using X-ray crystallography; however, many more structures remain unsolved. Protein Structure Initiative (PSI) project was created to speed up structure...

Large articular cartilage defects have proven difficult to treat and often result in osteoarthritis of the affected joint. Cryopreservation of articular cartilage can provide an increased supply of tissues for osteochondral allograft but cryoprotective agents are required; however, few studies...

Law, G. K., Forbes, J. F., Elliott, J. A., McGann, L. E., Jomha, N. M., Prasad, V., Almansoori, K. A.
Background Vitrification is a method of cryopreservation by which cells and tissues can be preserved at low temperatures using cryoprotective agents (CPAs) at high concentrations (typically ⩾6.0 M) to limit the harmful effects of ice crystals that can form during cooling processes. However, at...

Metabolomics aims to study all small-molecule compounds (i.e. metabolites) in cells, tissues, or biofluids. These compounds provide a functional readout of the physiological, developmental, and pathological state of a biological system. The field of metabolomics has expanded rapidly over the last...

Vitrification of articular cartilage (AC) could enhance tissue availability but requires high concentrations of cyroprotective agents (CPAs). This study investigated relative injuries caused by commonly used CPAs. We hypothesized that the in situ chondrocyte dose–injury relationships of five...

Spring 2014
Physical activity is recommended in the management of arthritis. This thesis utilized the CCHS 2007-2008 to 1) determine what factors modify physical activity in explaining the likelihood of having arthritis; and 2) what demographic, behavioural and medical factors influence physical activity...

Finite Element Model of the Thermal Profile During Submerged Arc Welding with One and Two Electrodes
DownloadFall 2016
The submerged-arc welding (SAW) process is used extensively in the manufacturing of pipes. The heat flow introduced by the welding operation has a significant impact on the properties of both the weld metal and the heat affected zone (HAZ). The work presented in this thesis aims to develop a...
