(East Carolina University, 2014)Military veterans experience high prevalence rates of mental illness, substance use disorders (SUDs), and traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, veterans enter into treatment for these problems at very low rates. Mental ... -
Influence of carbon nanomaterial exposure on pro-constrictor mechanisms during pregnancy
(East Carolina University, 2013)Engineered carbon based nanoparticles (CNP) such as fullerenes and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are increasingly used in industries and in nanomedicine as a platform for drug delivery. Following environmental/o ... -
Influence of Dialect and Stimulus Audibility on LiSN-S Performances
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)The main objectives were to investigate the effect of dialect on Listening in Spatialized Noise-Sentences (LISN-S) performances and to assess the relationship between bilateral pure-tone threshold averages (PTAs) and LISN-S ... -
Influence of exercise mode on pregnancy outcomes: ENHANCED by Mom project
(2015-06-09)Background: The extent of the benefits of exercise training during pregnancy on maternal, fetal, and neonatal health outcomes has not been sufficiently addressed. While aerobic exercise training has been determined as ... -
The Influence of Iron on Pseudomonas aeruginosa Physiology: A regulatory link between iron and quorum sensing
(East Carolina University, 2008-06-06)In iron-replete environments, the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Fur (ferric uptake regulator) protein represses expression of two small regulatory RNAs encoded by prrF1 and prrF2. Here we describe the effects of iron and PrrF ... -

Informational Odds Ratio: A Useful Measure of Epidemiologic Association in Environment Exposure Studies
(2012)The informational odds ratio (IOR) measures the post-exposure odds divided by the pre-exposure odds (ie, information gained after knowing exposure status). A desirable property of an adjusted ratio estimate is collapsibility ...
