Risk-taking attitides and their association with process and outcomes of cardiac care: a cohort study
Download2009
Ghali, W.A., Knudtson, M.L., King, K.M., Norris, C.M.
Background: Prior research reveals that processes and outcomes of cardiac care differ across sociodemographic strata. One potential contributing factor to such differences is the personality traits of individuals within these strata. We examined the association between risk-taking attitudes and...

The effect of aerobic fitness on the cardiovascular and sympathetic nervous system response to physiological stress at rest and during dynamic exercise
DownloadFall 2012
A cardio-protective adaptation associated with aerobic fitness may be an attenuated sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and cardiovascular response to stress. The hypothesis that the cardiovascular and SNS responses to physiological stress at rest and during exercise would be a function of...

Fall 2016
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) ɛ4 and Clusterin (CLU) C alleles are risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and preclinical cognitive and memory decline in older adults. We investigated whether memory resilience to genetic risk (i.e., Apolipoprotein E [APOE] ɛ4, Clusterin [CLU] CC, and a high additive...

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...

Βeta-adrenergic receptors and opposition of evoked sympathetic vasoconstriction: Effects of sex and exercise training
DownloadFall 2016
Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system evokes the release of neurotransmitters and produces vasoconstriction that is primarily mediated by the binding of norepinephrine (NE) to alpha-adrenergic receptors. However, NE may also bind to beta (β)-adrenergic receptors and produce vasodilation...

Effect of dietary nitrate on sympathetic vasoconstriction in resting and contracting skeletal muscle
DownloadFall 2015
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...

This presentation will cover the basics of glycobiology and why it is important that people study this field in the years to come. We will go into how glycan modification impacts the body, and why various factors must be taken into account when exclusively controlling for sex differences. The...
