(2022-03-10)Background and Methods:Racial and socioeconomic disparities in receipt ofadjuvant chemotherapy affect patients with pancreatic cancer. However, differencesin receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy among patients undergoing ... -
Differences in reproductive risk factors for breast cancer in middle-aged women in Marin County, California and a sociodemographically similar area of Northern California
(East Carolina University, 2009-03-25)Background: The Northern California county of Marin (MC) has historically had high breast cancer incidence rates. Because of MC's high socioeconomic status (SES) and racial homogeneity (non-Hispanic White), it has been ... -
Differences in Satisfaction with Undergraduate Education between African Americans and Caucasians and how it Relates to Retention of African American Students at East Carolina University
(East Carolina University, 2012)This study was designed to assess if there are differences in overall college satisfaction between Black and White graduating seniors using data from a survey of graduating seniors. Sex differences were also investigated. ... -

Differential aging-related changes of D1, D2, and D3 dopamine receptor expression in the striatum
(2013-05-03)Aging is associated with a decrease in motor function and a concomitant increase in muscle stiffness and tone. The striatum plays a critical role in the control of motor function, and it receives strong dopamine (DA) ... -
Differential Dopamine D1 and D3 Receptor Modulation and Expression in the Spinal Cord of Two Mouse Models of Restless Legs Syndrome
(2018-09-04)Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is often and successfully treated with dopamine receptor agonists that target the inhibitory D3 receptor subtype, however there is no clinical evidence of a D3 receptor dysfunction in RLS ... -
Differential expression of microRNAs during fiber development between fuzzless- lintless mutant and its wild-type allotetraploid cotton
(2017-01-31)Cotton is one of the most important textile crops but little is known how microRNAs regulate cotton fiber development. Using a well-studied cotton fiberless mutant Xu-142-fl, we compared 54 miRNAs for their expression ... -
The Differential Framing Measure for Procrastination : An Implicit Measure of Procrastination Cognitions
(East Carolina University, 2013)The present study attempted to create a scale for measuring the implicit cognitions related to procrastination. Items for the measure were created from a set of cognitive rationalizations derived from existing procrastination ... -
Differential gene expression and alternative splicing in insect immune specificity
(2014-11)Background Ecological studies routinely show genotype-genotype interactions between insects and their parasites. The mechanisms behind these interactions are not clearly understood. Using the bumblebee Bombus terrestris ... -
Differential gene expression and gene variants drive color and pattern development in divergent color morphs of a mimetic poison frog
(2019-07-21)Evolutionary biologists have long investigated the ecological contexts, evolutionary forces, and proximate mechanisms that produce the diversity of animal coloration we see in the natural world. In aposematic species, color ... -
DIFFERENTIAL GENE EXPRESSION IN THE BRAINS OF BEGGING POISON FROG TADPOLES
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)Parents often rely on offspring signals to adequately allocate resources to dependent offspring. The mimic poison frog, Ranitomeya imitator, has evolved elaborate parental care behaviors to raise their young. Their tadpoles ...
