Hypothermia in trauma patients: predicting the big chill
(2012)Physicians commonly ignore hypothermia, an often-underappreciated event associated with mortality in trauma patients, in general due to its prevalence and belief that it is secondary to the injury itself (secondary ... -
Hypothesis for induction and propagation of chemical sensitivity based on biopsy studies.
(East Carolina University, 1997-03)The reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS), the reactive upper airways dysfunction syndrome (RUDS), the sick building syndrome (SBS), and the multiple chemical sensitivity syndrome (MCS) are overlapping disorders ... -
Hypoxia and Hypoglycemia synergistically regulate mRNA stability
(2017-07)Ischemic events, common in many diseases, result from decreased blood flow and impaired delivery of oxygen and glucose to tissues of the body. While much is known about the cellular transcriptional response to ischemia, ... -
Hypoxia and Serum Deprivation in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells, and the Protective Role of Thymosin [Beta]-4
(East Carolina University, 2011)Background: Current literature suggests nutrient deprivation and hypoxia affect human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) survival after cell transplantation. Wound-healing protein Thymosin [beta]-4 (T[beta]-4) has been shown ... -
Hypoxia inducible factor-1α-dependent epithelial to mesenchymal transition under hypoxic conditions in prostate cancer cells
(2016)Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death. Hypoxia is an environmental stimulus that plays an important role in the development and cancer progression ... -
Hypoxic Conditioned Medium from Rat Cerebral Cortical Cells Enhances the Proliferation and Differentiation of Neural Stem Cells Mainly through PI3-K/Akt Pathways
(2014)Purpose To investigate the effects of hypoxic conditioned media from rat cerebral cortical cells on the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in vitro, and to study the roles of PI3-K/Akt and JNK ... -
I am but a rubberband

Idempotents in Cyclic Codes
(East Carolina University, 2012)Cyclic codes give us the most probable method by which we may detect and correct data transmission errors. These codes depend on the development of advanced mathematical concepts. It is shown that cyclic codes, when viewed ... -
Identification and Characterization of alcR, a Gene Encoding an AraC-Like Regulator of Alcaligin Siderophore Biosynthesis and Transport in Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica
(East Carolina University, 1998-02)A Bordetella bronchiseptica iron transport mutant was isolated following an enrichment procedure based on streptonigrin resistance. The mutant displayed a growth defect on iron-restricted medium containing ferric alcaligin ... -
