Current Issues and Regulations in Tendon Regeneration and Musculoskeletal Repair with Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Download2011-11-01
Mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent stromal cells residing within the connective tissue of most organs. Their surface phenotype has been well described. Most commonly, mesenchymal stem cells demonstrate the ability to differentiate into mesenchymal tissues (bone, catailge, fat, etc...),...

Data-Driven Approaches to Modeling Heterogeneity and Variability Across Asymptomatic Brain and Cognitive Aging, Mild Cognitive Impairment, and Alzheimer’s disease
DownloadSpring 2024
Objective We apply data-driven approaches to identify predictors of heterogeneous trajectories across normal aging, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In Study 1, we investigated predictors of left and right hippocampal (HC) volume trajectory classes. In Study 2, we...

Decongestive Progressive Resistance Exercise with Advanced Compression for Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema Management (DREAM): A Pilot Randomized Control Trial
DownloadFall 2018
Introduction: More than one in five women who survive breast cancer will eventually develop lymphedema. Recent studies in breast cancer lymphedema management have demonstrated that resistance exercise can improve the survivors’ quality of life without exacerbating their lymphedema. However,...

Diagnosing Clinically Significant Dehydration in Children with Acute Gastroenteritis Using Noninvasive Methods: A Meta-Analysis
Download2015
Milne, Andrea, Hartling, Lisa, Vandermeer, Ben, Freedman, Stephen B.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the most accurate, noninvasive method of assessing dehydration. STUDY DESIGN: The following data sources were searched: electronic databases, gray literature, scientific meetings, reference lists, and authors of unpublished studies. Eligible studies were comparative...

Diminishing Returns in Cardiovascular Disease Research: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
DownloadFall 2019
If “usual care” improves with time, it becomes increasingly difficult for new therapies to demonstrate additional benefit. Our objective then was to determine, by systematic review of randomized trials, whether the absolute cardiovascular risk reduction attributed to community-implemented...

Does overload exercise training alter autonomic nervous system activity and hemodynamic regulation in aerobically fit men?
DownloadFall 2014
In general, chronic endurance training has positive effects on physiological function. However, the performance of training in excess of what an individual is able to recover from can lead to performance, physiological and psychobiological maladaptation. The purposes of this investigation were to...

Does perceived behavioral control mediate the association between perceptions of neighborhood walkability and moderate and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity?
Download2009
Spence, J. C., Doyle-Baker, T., McCormack, G. R., Berry, T. R.
Background: Research regarding the pathways via which the environment influences physical activity is limited. This study examined the role of perceived behavioral control (PBC) in mediating the relationship between perceptions of neighborhood walkability and frequency of moderate (MODPA) and...

Does The Timing of Exercise Affect Glucose Concentrations in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes?
DownloadFall 2019
Background: It is well known that exercise can improve glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the glycemic response to exercise is highly variable. One of the primary causes of variability in response to a single bout of exercise may be timing in relation to meals....
