Paul, Stanley, Zaza, Christine, Guptill, Christine A.
Several studies have been conducted on the playingrelated physical injuries of college music students. In this study, a client-centered, occupation-based survey was administered to music majors at a large midwestern university. The primary objectives of the study were to examine which health...

Although a number of cytoskeletal derangements have been described in the setting of traumatic axonal injury (TAI), little is known of early structural changes that may serve to initiate a cascade of further axonal degeneration. Recent work by the authors has examined conformational changes in...

Characterization of cryobiological responses in TF-1 cells using interrupted freezing procedures

McGann, L. E., Elliott, J. A., Ross-Rodriguez, L. U.
Cryopreservation currently is the only method for long-term preservation of cellular viability and function for uses in cellular therapies. Characterizing the cryobiological response of a cell type is essential in the approach to designing and optimizing cryopreservation protocols. For cells used...

Yu, H., Jomha, N. M., Elliott, J. A., Al-Abbasi, K. K., McGann, L. E.
In previous research, we successfully cryopreserved intact human articular cartilage on its bone base with high chondrocyte viability using a vitrification protocol that entailed sequential exposure to several cryopreserving agents (CPAs) at lowering temperatures resulting in a high final...

Cryopreserved amniotic membrane as transplant allograft: viability and post-transplant outcome
Download2015-09-11
Hayward, K., Holovati, J.L. , Mokoena, T., Marquez-Curtis, L.A., Perepelkin, N.M.J., Elliott, J.A.W. , Bentley, M.J., McGann, L.E., Ross-Rodriguez, L.U.
Amniotic membrane (AM) transplantation is increasingly used in ophthalmological and dermatological surgeries to promote re-epithelialization and wound healing. Biologically active cells in the epithelial and stromal layers deliver growth factors and cytokines with anti-inflammatory,...

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...

Prasad, V., Laouar, L., Jomha, N. M., McGann, L. E., Fahmy, M. D., Almansoori, K. A., Elliott, J. A.
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...

Indigenous injury outcomes: Life satisfaction among injured Māori in New Zealand three months after injury
Download2013
Samaranayaka, Ari, Derrett, Sarah, Hokowhitu, Brendan, Wyeth, Emma
Background: Māori, the indigenous population of New Zealand, experience numerous and consistent health disparities when compared to non-Māori. Injury is no exception, yet there is a paucity of published literature that examines outcomes following a wide variety of injury types and severities for...
