Could Age, Sex and Physical Fitness Affect Blood Glucose Responses to Exercise in Type 1 Diabetes?
Download2019-11-13
Yardley, J. E., Brockman, N. K., Bracken, R. M.
Closed-loop systems for patients with type 1 diabetes are progressing rapidly. Despite these advances, current systems may struggle in dealing with the acute stress of exercise. Algorithms to predict exercise-induced blood glucose changes in current systems are mostly derived from data involving...

Differential expression of hypothalamic metabolic and inflammatory genes in response to short-term calorie restriction in juvenile obese- and lean-prone JCR rats
Download2015
Vine, Donna F., Jacobs, Rene, Pierce, W.D., Heth, C.D., Russell, Jim, Proctor, Spencer D., Borthwick, Faye, Nelson, Randy, Diane, Abdoulaye, Mangat, Rabban
Background: Childhood obesity is an important early predictor of adult obesity and associated comorbidities. Common forms of obesity are underpinned by both environmental and genetic factors. However, the rising prevalence of obesity in genetically stable populations strongly suggests that...

Public views of acceptability of perinatal mental health screening and treatment preference: A population based survey.
Download2014
Kingston, D., Austin, M., Lasiuk, G., Tough, S., Hegadoren, K., McDonald, S.
Background At a prevalence rate of 13-25%, mental health problems are among the most common morbidities of the prenatal and postnatal periods. They have been associated with increased risk of preterm birth and low birthweight, child developmental delay, and poor child mental health. However, very...

Conditional, temperature-induced proteolytic regulation of cyanobacterial RNA helicase expression
Download2014
Owttrim, George W., Tarassova, Oxana S., Chamot, Danuta
Conditional proteolysis is a crucial process regulating the abundance of key regulatory proteins associated with the cell cycle, differentiation pathways, or cellular response to abiotic stress in eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. We provide evidence that conditional proteolysis is involved...

Validation of the conceptual research utilization scale: An application of the standards for educational and psychological testing in healthcare
Download2011
Gierl, M., Estabrooks, C., Newburn-Cook, C.V., Squires, J.E.
Background: There is a lack of acceptable, reliable, and valid survey instruments to measure conceptual research utilization (CRU). In this study, we investigated the psychometric properties of a newly developed scale (the CRU Scale). Methods: We used the Standards for Educational and...

Linking occurrence and fitness to persistence: habitat-based approach for endangered greater sage-grouse
Download2007
Detailed empirical models predicting both species occurrence and fitness across a landscape are necessary to understand processes related to population persistence. Failure to consider both occurrence and fitness may result in incorrect assessments of habitat importance leading to inappropriate...

Van Moorter, B., Mcloughlin, P. D., Gaillard, J. M., Duncan, P., Boyce, M. S., Delorme, D., Klein, F., Bonenfant, C., Messier, F., Said, S.
The relationship between individual performance and nonrandom use of habitat is fundamental to ecology; however, empirical tests of this relationship remain limited, especially for higher orders of selection like that of the home range. We quantified the association between lifetime reproductive...

Structural equation model testing and the quality of natural killer cell activity measurements
Download2005
Pazderka-Robinson, H., Hayduk, L., Levers, M.J., Cummings, G.G., Beres, M.A.
Background: Browne et al. [Browne, MacCallum, Kim, Andersen, Glaser: When fit indices and residuals are incompatible. Psychol Methods 2002] employed a structural equation model of measurements of target cell lysing by natural killer cells as an example purportedly demonstrating that small but...

Activation of Na+/H+ exchanger-directed protein kinases in the ischemic and ischemic-reperfused rat myocardium
Download2001-01-01
Moor, Andrea N., Gan, Xiaohong Tracey, Karmazyn, Morris, Fliegel, Larry
The activity of the Na+/H+ exchanger has been implicated as an important contributing factor in damage to the myocardium that occurs during ischemia and reperfusion. We examined regulation of the protein in ischemic and reperfused isolated hearts and isolated ventricular myocytes. In isolated...
