Characterization of hypertrophic scar formation in nude and knockout mice deficient in T, B and natural killer cells
DownloadSpring 2012
Introduction: Hypertrophic scar (HSc) is a fibroproliferative disorder lacking a relevant animal model. Our objective is to characterize proliferative scars in human xenografts generated after grafting human skin onto mice deficient in T, B and natural killer cells. Methods: Nude, T-cell receptor...

Hydraulic transport is commonly employed in the mining industry to transport crushed ore to a processing facility. Dense slurry flows inflict heavy wear on pipes, leading to significant process downtime and loss of revenue. Several factors have been identified as key contributors to pipe wear. ...

Spittlehouse, D.L., Hamann, A., Murdock, T.Q., Wang, T.
This study addresses the need to provide comprehensive historical climate data and climate change projections at a scale suitable for, and readily accessible to, researchers and resource managers. This database for western North America (WNA) includes over 20 000 surfaces of monthly, seasonal,...

Julien, Heidi, Genuis, Shelagh, McKechnie, Lynne, Tami Oliphant
Introduction. This study examined if and how the results of information behaviour research are being interpreted and reported for application to the work of library and information science practitioners. Method. A content analysis was conducted of 117 research reports published in the 1996 to...

Markle-Reid, M., Kingston, D., Browne, G., Grdisa, V.
Introduction: Integration has been advanced as a strategy for the delivery of a number of human services that have traditionally been delivered by autonomous agencies with independent processes and funding sources. However, measurement of the dimensions of integration has been hampered by...

Conceptualizing Water Movement in the Boreal Plains. Implications for Watershed Reconstruction
Download2012-01-01
Devito, K., Mendoza, C., Qualizza, C.
The aim of this document is to provide guidance on landscape reconstruction based on the results of more than a decade of research in natural forest systems on the Boreal Plains. It is hoped that the synthesis will prove useful to a range of audiences – from general readers interested in the...

Spotting in the context of wildland fire refers to the creation of new fires, downwind from an existing fire front, where the new fires result due to the launch, and subsequent fuel bed ignition upon landing, of burning plant ma- terial released from the main front. We will present a new...

The area burned by forest fires in Canada has increased over the past four decades, at the same time as summer season temperatures have warmed. Here we use output from a coupled climate model to demonstrate that human emissions of greenhouse gases and sulfate aerosol have made a detectable...

Density-dependent constraints on parasite growth, survival or reproduction are thought to be important in preventing the unchecked increase in parasite numbers within individual hosts or host populations. While it is important to know where, and with what severity, density dependence is acting...
