Eating late in the evening is associated with childhood obesity in some age groups but not in all children: the relationship between time of consumption and body weight status in U.S. children
(East Carolina University, 2009-05-21)Background: Some studies in adults indicate a positive correlation between eating later in the day and overall energy intake as well as body weight status. Thus, the time of food intake may be a risk factor in childhood ... -
The Effect of a Hip Strengthening Program on Mechanics during Running and Single Leg Squatting
(http://www.jospt.org/doi/pdf/10.2519/jospt.2011.3470, 2011-07)STUDY DESIGN: Block randomized controlled trial. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether a strengthening and movement education program, targeting the hip abductors and hip external rotators, alters hip mechanics during running ... -
Effect of Age, Gender, and Repeated Measures on Intraoral Air Pressure in Normal Adults
(East Carolina University, 2001)The effect of age, gender, and repeated measures on intraoral air pressure (P0) was examined. Sixty adults comprised of ten males and ten females in each of three age groups (i.e., 20 to 39, 40 to 59, and 60 to 83 years) ... -
Effect of Normal and Fast Articulatory Rates on Stuttering Frequency
(East Carolina University, 1995)The effect of speech rate on stuttering frequency was investigated with 20 stutterers. Subjects read two different 300 syllable passages at a normal and fast speech rate. Stuttering counts and articulatory rate was determined ... -
Effect of Single and Combined Altered Auditory Feedback on Stuttering Frequency at Two Speech Rates
(East Carolina University, 1995)The purpose of the study was to determine if combining delayed auditory feedback (DAF) and frequency altered feedback (FAF) would be more fluency enhancing than either DAF or FAF alone. Ten stutterers read at normal and ... -
Effects of Age, Gender, Bolus Volume, and Trial on Swallowing Apnea Duration and Swallow/Respiratory Phase Relationships of Normal Adults
(East Carolina University, 2001)The effects of age, gender, bolus volume, and trial on swallowing apnea duration (SAD) and swallow/respiratory phase relationships were examined. Sixty adults, comprised of ten males and ten females in each of three age ... -
Effects of Age, Gender, Bolus Volume, Bolus Viscosity, and Gustation on Swallowing Apnea Onset Relative to Lingual Bolus Propulsion Onset in Normal Adults
(East Carolina University, 2004)The purpose of this study was to ascertain the normal relation of swallowing apnea (SA) onset relative to lingual bolus propulsion along with factors that may alter this relation. Forty adults, composed of ten males and ... -

Effects of Medially Wedged Foot Orthoses on Knee and Hip Joint Running Mechanics in Females With and Without Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome.
(2013)We examined the effects of medially wedged foot orthoses on knee and hip joint mechanics during running in females with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). We also tested if these effects depend on standing ... -
Effects of Surgical Intervention and Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy on Velopharyngeal Structure and Function: A Single Case Report
(2019-04)Changes to the velum and velopharyngeal muscles following Furlow double-opposing Z-plasty in a 7-year-old female with submucous cleft palate and velopharyngeal dysfunction (VPD) were evaluated. Perceptual, instrumental ... -
Evidence-Based Lifestyle Strategies to Improve Health of Shift Workers
(2013-05)An estimated 8-15 million Americans perform shift work that may encourage life style choices that negatively affect health. We present two patient cases elucidating some of the issues faced by shift workers and provide ...
