Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

Dimensions of Physical Activity as Related to Child Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Symptoms and Impairment
DownloadFall 2020
Empirically-supported treatments for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are medication and behaviour management, but there is widespread consensus for a need for more treatment options. Increasing support suggests that physical activity (PA) may be an adjunct/alternative to existing...

New Approaches to Thermodynamics-based Predictive Modelling of Gas Chromatography and Comprehensive Two-dimensional Gas Chromatography
DownloadSpring 2019
Thermodynamics-based predictive models of retention in gas chromatography and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography have been demonstrated to provide high prediction accuracy across a wide range of separation conditions. They generally predict better than retention index-based models...
