A 3D Continuum Finite Element Muscle Model for the Investigation of Cervical Spine Load-Sharing Mechanisms and Injury Assessment during Impact Loading Scenarios
DownloadFall 2018
The mechanical behavior of the individual cervical tissues as well as the head-neck complex kinematics plays a very important role in proper functioning of the cervical spine and is a key factor in more appropriate understanding of injury mechanism, prevention, detection, control and treatment....

Bilateral Uterine Artery Ligation in Rats cultivates Long Term Neurological Deficits reminiscent of Human Cerebral Palsy: A model for Therapeutic Intervention.
DownloadFall 2015
Introduction Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a ubiquitous term used to describe a group of permanent, non-progressive disorders of movement, posture, and behaviour. Despite countless advances in neonatal medicine, the incidence of CP has remained constant in term infants over the last three decades. More...

Cardiovascular Effects of Aerobic Exercise Training in Hypoxic-induced Intrauterine Growth Restriction
DownloadFall 2017
Fetal hypoxia is one of the most common consequences of complicated pregnancies worldwide. It has been demonstrated that prenatal hypoxia leads to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Being born growth restricted is associated with a decrease in cardiomyocyte proliferation, an increased...

Shrestha, S., Hogan, J.D., Ramesh, K.T. , Venkatesan, A., Fournier, A.J., Rajbhandari, L.
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...

Design and Characterization of a Novel Mechanical Surrogate Neck Model for Use in Head Impact Applications
DownloadFall 2020
Head and brain injuries are commonly caused by head impacts in sport and recreational activities. Despite attempts to decrease head impact injury risk through mandated helmet use, mild brain injuries are still prevalent. Brain injury research and helmet assessment methods use surrogate models to...

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...

Epidermal Growth Factor-like domain 7 (EGFL7) is a secreted angiogenic factor that is almost exclusively expressed by endothelial cells. High EGFL7 expression occurs during physiological angiogenesis, under pathological conditions, and in solid tumor angiogenesis. Evidence suggests that EGFL7...

Heart transplantation (HTx) is a life-saving intervention for patients with end-stage heart failure. Nonetheless, the development of Chronic Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) limits the longevity of transplanted cardiac allografts and the survival of recipients. The pathogenesis of CAV begins with a...

Exploiting the Enhanced Permeability and Retention Effect for the Targeting of Tumors with 18F-SiFA Polymer Nanoparticles
DownloadFall 2017
Over the last several decades great progress has been made in cancer diagnosis and detection. One foundation of this progress has been improved imaging technologies. Among the most promising imaging technologies for cancer detection is Positron Emission Tomography (PET). PET imaging allows for...
