DIVERGENT MECHANISTIC PATHWAYS IN A METAL-CATALYZED HYDROACYLATION REACTION, AND THE ROLE PLAYED BY A HEMILABILE P-O-P LIGAND
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-03)The project described here involves a computational mechanistic analysis of an intermolecular hydroacylation reaction with an alkene and a beta-S-substituted aldehyde. Two products are formed in the reaction, a ketone and ... -
Divergent roles of superoxide and nitric oxide in liver ischemia and reperfusion injury
(2011)Liver ischemia and reperfusion-induced injury is a major clinical complication associated with hemorrhagic or endotoxin shock and thermal injury as well as liver transplantation and resectional surgery. Data obtained from ... -
Diverse Misfolded Conformational Strains and Cross-seeding of Misfolded Proteins Implicated in Neurodegenerative Diseases
(2019-07-09)Numerous neurodegenerative diseases including prion, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are characterized by accumulation of protein aggregates in brain. Prion disease is unique in that the natively folded prion protein ... -
Diversifying Eastern North Carolina Heritage Sites : Tour Guides' Perspectives
(East Carolina University, 2014)Tour guides from six Eastern North Carolina heritage sites were interviewed to assess minority participation. The sites in this study focus on museums, plantations, and towns. A further comparison was done between site ... -
Diversity and Survival of Macrofauna associated with a Non-Native Foundational Species
(East Carolina University, 2023-07-24)Through globalization and increased anthropogenic movement, many non-native foundation species have established across the world. These foundation species have impacted ecological communities in myriad of ways, including ... -

Diversity in warning coloration: selective paradox or the norm?
(2018-08-27)Aposematic theory has historically predicted that predators should select for warning signals to converge on a single form, as a result of frequency‐dependent learning. However, widespread variation in warning signals is ... -
Diversity of the arctic deep-sea benthos
(2011-02-11)A benthic species inventory of 1,125 taxa was compiled from various sources for the central Arctic deeper than 500 m, and bounded to the Atlantic by Fram Strait. The inventory was dominated by arthropods (366 taxa), ... -

Division I Athletics Directors and University Presidents : A Comparison of Sport-Related Values
(East Carolina University, 2008)The purpose of this study was to analyze the moral reasoning of university presidents and athletics directors in sport settings, an area into which few initiatives have been undertaken. Electronic surveys were used to ... -
DNA methylation analyses identify an intronic ZDHHC6 locus associated with time to recurrent stroke in the Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention (VISP) clinical trial
(2021-07-12)Aberrant DNA methylation profiles have been implicated in numerous cardiovascular diseases; however, few studies have investigated how these epigenetic modifications contribute to stroke recurrence. The aim of this study ... -
DNP Project: Perioperative Temperature Monitoring
(2022-11-26)Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature less than 36 oC and has many documented adverse outcomes such as postoperative infections, increased perioperative blood loss, increased extubation ... -
Do female Eastern Bluebirds trade-off egg size with clutch size?
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-09)Egg size and clutch size are traits that show a fundamental trade-off in life history theory. Producing a larger number of offspring can come at the cost of being able to invest in those offspring. The degree of maternal ...
