Background Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a group of inherited neuromuscular disorders with heart disease as a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Dystrophinopathies such as Duchenne and Becker MD, limb-girdle MD, type 1 myotonic dystrophy (DM1), and facioscapulohumeral MD are most associated...

Renal autoregulation, comprised of the myogenic response (MR) and the kidney-specific tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF), maintains steady perfusion to the kidneys despite blood pressure fluctuations. The emphasis of this work is on TGF, the dynamics of which generate autonomous oscillations that...

Trends in Cause-Specific Mortality after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): Observations from the Alberta Provincial Project for Outcome assessment in Coronary Heart disease (APPROACH) Registry
DownloadFall 2018
Objectives: This study evaluated trends in 30-day, 1-, and 2-year cause-specific mortality using a large, contemporary cohort undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background: Prior work has shown that patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are older with...

Transmission of Tuberculosis from Patients with Typical Versus Atypical Chest Radiographs: Implications for Automated Systems
DownloadFall 2015
Automated detection of “typical” pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) on chest radiograph (CXR) is warranted if it can be shown that patients with “typical” (vs “atypical”) CXRs are responsible for most public health consequences. Patient demographics and mycobacteriology of all adults (age >14 years)...

BackgroundThe assessment of acute pain due to trauma (APT) in adults is pivotal to clinical decision-making for optimal pain management. Clinicians are expected to employ validated measurement tools, such as the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), to examine the complex and unique phenomenon of pain of...

Transcriptional regulation of von Willebrand Factor gene in response to hypoxia and in cancer cells
DownloadFall 2016
Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) is a pro-coagulant, glycosylated protein that is exclusively expressed in endothelial cells and megakaryocytes. An acute phase protein, VWF is upregulated or released from activated or injured endothelial cells. In addition, it is a carrier for factor VIII that...

Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and ischemic stroke are at high risk for stroke recurrence. Early anticoagulation may reduce the risk of recurrent events but is usually avoided due to the risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT). The risk of HT is based on historical data from an older...
