Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is progressive disease characterized by reduced exercise capacity and decreased quality of life. Despite the availability of disease targeted therapies outcomes remain sub-optimal. Pulmonary Rehabilitation has proven to improve outcomes in other chronic...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to experimentally simulate interactions between liquid manure and soil in diffusion-dominant areas beneath earthen manure storage (EMS). A previous radial diffusion cell method was modified to include an anaerobic chamber that employed a plastic glove bag...

We investigated the effects of flooding for three weeks on physiological responses and uptake of NH4+ and NO3- by black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP.) and tamarack (Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch) seedlings fertilized with labeled (15NH4)2SO4 or K15NO3 in a growth chamber experiment....

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is implicated in several vascular diseases through endothelial dysfunction. Most of the research on CMV has focused on either congenital CMV infections or CMV disease in immunocompromised hosts; however, CMV has also been associated with vascular diseases in...

While humans demonstrate sexually differentiated psychological and behavioural traits, such as aggression, there is a vast amount of within-sex variation for these traits. Further, the effect size of these sex differences is relatively small and there is a large amount of overlap between males...

Dietary nitrate (NO3-) may increase nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and alter the control of blood flow at rest and during exercise. This thesis investigated the effect of dietary NO3- supplementation on sympathetic mediated control of skeletal muscle blood flow in resting and contracting...

Nitrogen isotopes are a robust tool to study geological nitrogen cycle between Earth’s reservoirs. However, the application of nitrogen isotope system to understanding geological processes has been limited by the lack of constraints on equilibrium isotope fractionation factors between mineral and...

Chronic pain is a highly prevalent symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and affects approximately half of patients at some stage of the disease. MS affects women more frequently than men and neuropathic pain is also reported as more severe, and frequent, in females with the disease. The underlying...

Confidence in regional estimates of N2O emissions used in national greenhouse gas inventories could be improved by using mathematical models of the biological and physical processes by which these emissions are known to be controlled. However these models must first be rigorously tested against...
