The Proteome of Partial Bladder Outlet Obstruction & The Therapeutic Role of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
DownloadFall 2013
Introduction: Partial bladder outlet obstruction (pBOO) is a common problem in urology. It passes through several pathological phases before progressing to bladder fibrosis. Herein, we investigated the proteomic profile of the urinary bladder in the early phase after pBOO, and examined the...

Fall 2019
Background: Dermal fibroproliferative disorders are forms of aberrant cutaneous wound healing, which can lead to the formation of hypertrophic scars (HTS). HTS develop after prolonged healing of deep dermal burns and are associated with excessive inflammation. HTS are characterized by exaggerated...

The Role of Body Composition in Predicting Outcomes in the Elderly Following Acute Abdominal Surgery
DownloadFall 2018
Background:The elderly are the fastest growing population in North America which has resulted in rising number of older patients undergoing emergency surgery. Often with aging, there is a decrease in skeletal muscle mass and an increase in intra-abdominal fat. Sarcopenia, severe muscle depletion,...

The role of cultured chondrocytes and mesenchymal stem cells in the repair of acute articular cartilage injuries
DownloadSpring 2010
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease that has significant individual, social, and economic impact worldwide. Although many etiologies lead to the eventual development of OA, one potentially treatable cause is the acute articular cartilage (AC) injury. These injuries are common and have a poor...

The Role of Cyclosporine Treatment in Cardioprotection during Resuscitation of Asphyxiated Newborn Piglets
DownloadFall 2012
Asphyxiated neonates often have myocardial depression which is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Cardioprotective effects of cyclosporine have been observed in adult animal models and human trials with myocardial infarction. However, the cardioprotective effect of cyclosporine in...

The Role of Decorin and Factors Influencing its Expression in Wound Healing and Hypertrophic Scarring
DownloadSpring 2016
Hypertrophic scarring following deep burn injury is a significant problem for many burn patients, and can cause lifelong morbidity including impaired physical function, and reduced psychosocial function from poor cosmesis. While a significant body of research exists, there is still no gold...
