Are Sex and Estrogen Modulators of Sympathetic Vascular Control in Resting and Contracting Skeletal Muscle?
DownloadSpring 2018
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate whether sex and estrogen modulate sympathetic neurovascular control in resting and contracting skeletal muscle. This thesis also investigated the hypothesis that the effects of sex and estrogen on neurovascular control would be mediated by the signal...

Assessing the effects of weather conditions on physical activity participation using objective measures
Download2009
Chan, Catherine B., Ryan, Daniel A.
Habitual physical activity is an important determinant of health, yet many people are considered to be inactive. Identification of the obstacles to greater participation is necessary for the development of strategies to overcome those obstacles. The weather has been identified as a perceived...

Carotid atherosclerosis is responsible for 15-25% of the nearly 8 million first-ever ischemic strokes that occur each year worldwide. This proportion has remained constant over the past three decades, thus suggesting that some patients with carotid atherosclerosis currently receive suboptimal...

Yardley, J. E., Houlder, S. K.
Prior to the widespread use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), knowledge of the effects of exercise in type 1 diabetes (T1D) was limited to the exercise period, with few studies having the budget or capacity to monitor participants overnight. Recently, CGM has become a staple of many...

Coordinated distributed experiments: An emerging tool for testing global hypotheses in ecology and environmental science
Download2013-01-01
Knapp, A. K., Collins, S. L., Turkington, R. , Long, R., White, S., Cahill, J. F., Carlyle, C. N., Beierkuhnlein, C., Luo, Y., Casper, B. B. Cleland, E., Lind, E., Smith, M. D., Henry, H. A. L., Dukes, J. S., Fraser, L. H., Reich, P. B., Sternberg, M.
There is a growing realization among scientists and policy makers that an increased understanding of today's environmental issues requires international collaboration and data synthesis. Meta-analyses have served this role in ecology for more than a decade, but the different experimental...
