van Zanten, S.V., Chang, H.J., Morse, A., Lefebvre, M., Goodman, K.J.
Introduction. Helicobacter pylori infection is an emerging health concern to some northern Canadian Aboriginal communities and their clinicians. Clinicians in the north perceive H. pylori infection to be a major clinical problem because they find H. pylori infection in many patients evaluated for...

Challenges created by data dissemination and access restrictions when attempting to address community concerns: individual privacy versus public wellbeing.
Download2012
Goodman, K.J., Hatcher, J., Geary, J., Aplin, L., Colquhoun, A.
Background: Population health data are vital for the identification of public health problems and the development of public health strategies. Challenges arise when attempts are made to disseminate or access anonymised data that are deemed to be potentially identifiable. In these situations,...

Challenges in conducting community-driven research created by differing ways of talking and thinking about science: a researcher’s perspective.
Download2013
Geary, J., Goodman, K.J., Colquhoun, A.
Increasingly, health scientists are becoming aware that research collaborations that include community partnerships can be an effective way to broaden the scope and enhance the impact of research aimed at improving public health. Such collaborations extend the reach of academic scientists by...

Disease manifestations of Helicobacter pylori infection in Arctic Canada: using epidemiology to address community concerns.
Download2014
Fedorak, R.N., Bailey, R., Girgis, S., van Zanten, S.V., Morse, J., Geary, J., Fagan-Garcia, K., Goodman, K.J., Cheung, J.
Objectives Helicobacter pylori infection, linked to gastric cancer, is responsible for a large worldwide disease burden. H pylori prevalence and gastric cancer rates are elevated among indigenous Arctic communities, but implementation of prevention strategies is hampered by insufficient...

Environmental Exposures, Helicobacter pylori Infection and Gastritis in Canadian Arctic Communities
DownloadSpring 2013
The role of environmental exposures in the acquisition of H.pylori and related disease is not yet understood. This analysis examined two hypotheses regarding how environmental exposures may affect digestive health in northern Canada. First, environmental sources of biological contamination may...

Exploiting bacterial glycosylation machineries for the synthesis of a Lewis antigen-containing glycoprotein
Download2011
Hug, Isabelle, Reiz, Bela, Fentabil, Messele A., Klassen, John S., Whittal, Randy M., Zheng, Blake, Feldman, Mario F.
Glycoproteins constitute a class of compounds of increasing importance for pharmaceutical applications. The manipulation of bacterial protein glycosylation systems from Gram-negative bacteria for the synthesis of recombinant glycoproteins is a promising alternative to the current production...

Helicobacter pylori infection in Arctic Indigenous communities: assessing the validity of infection status measures and estimating the effect of bacterial load on gastritis severity
DownloadSpring 2023
Helicobacter pylori (Hp) causes chronic inflammation of the stomach lining, also known as gastritis, in nearly all people with a persistent infection. Chronic inflammation of the stomach lining can lead to atrophy of stomach glands, a condition known as atrophic gastritis, believed to be the...

Liposome-based therapy: An alternative approach to treat Helicobacter pylori infection in high prevalence communities such as Aklavik, NWT
DownloadSpring 2016
Helicobacter pylori infects about half of the world population causing chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer or gastric cancer. The Aboriginal people in Aklavik, NWT, Canada are concerned about gastric cancer because of the high prevalence of H. pylori infection (58%) in their community. H. pylori...
