Spring 2014
Modifiable cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, such as adiposity, are already associated with atherosclerotic progression in childhood. Less is known about whether physical activity (PA) is associated with progression of atherosclerosis in non-clinical samples of children. This...

The effects of defoliation on growth, reproduction and pollination of a non-native legume (Astragalus cicer) in the mixedgrass prairie
DownloadSpring 2017
Herbivory can lead to trade-offs between plant growth and reproduction as defoliated plants lose initial resource investments and have reduced photosynthetic capacity. This trade-off can lead to reduced investment into reproductive structures and have repercussions for floral traits, pollinator...

Choline, as an essential nutrient, is needed for a variety of biological processes such as phospholipid synthesis, cell-membrane signaling, lipoprotein secretion, acetylcholine biosynthesis, and one-carbon metabolism. In the North American population diet the two most common forms of choline in...

The role of ezetimibe and simvastatin in modulating intestinal cholesterol transport, chylomicron profile and chylomicron-remnant uptake by the arterial wall in a rodent model of the metabolic syndrome
DownloadFall 2010
Intestinally derived chylomicron remnants (CM-r) may contribute to atherogenic dyslipidemia during the Metabolic Syndrome (Mets). However, the combined effects of ezetimibe (EZ) and simvastatin (SV) on post-prandial (PP) dyslipidemia during MetS remains unclear, nor is it known whether the...

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Long-term elevated plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) are the major risk factors for developing atherosclerotic lesions, which can eventually lead to myocardial...

The Role of Intestinal Derived Remnant Lipoproteins in the Progression of Atherosclerosis in Animal Models of Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.
DownloadFall 2011
Introduction: Subjects with insulin resistance (IR) and diabetes are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) than those without diabetes, however the mechanistic basis remains elusive. Despite LDL-cholesterol lowering by statin therapy, two-thirds of all CVD events remain, constituting...

Understanding the role of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on postpartum reproductive function and embryo development in dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2016
The objectives of this work were to investigate the influence of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on feed intake, calf birth weight, maternal and neonatal fatty acid profiles, milk production, postpartum reproductive function, early embryonic development and its transcriptome profile in...

USING IN-LINE MILK PROGESTERONE DATA TO DETERMINE OVARIAN ACTIVITY PARAMETERS ASSOCIATED WITH REDUCED FERTILITY IN CANADIAN HOLSTEIN COWS
DownloadFall 2017
Improvements in genetic selection and dairy management practices have resulted in dramatic increases in individual milk production over past decades. However, this positive trend has been accompanied by decreased reproductive performance and fertility in dairy cows. Infertility in modern dairy...
