Mineralogy, Geochemistry, and Genesis of the Valentines Iron Formation, Nico Pérez Terrane, Eastern Uruguay, and Significance for the Redox Conditions of Early Earth's Oceans
(East Carolina University, 2015)The Valentines Iron Formation of eastern Uruguay is one of three well-defined rock units that comprise the Valentines Formation, and is commonly interlayered with felsic and intermediate granulites. The iron formations ... -
A Minimally-Invasive Procedure for Sexing Young Zebra Finches
(East Carolina University, 2007-08-15)Zebra finches have been widely used to study neurobiology underlying vocal development. Because only male zebra finches learn song, efficient developmental use of these animals requires early determination of sex at ages ... -
MINORITY STRESS, RISKY BEHAVIORS, AND SEXUAL SCRIPTING AMONG TRANSGENDER COLLEGE STUDENTS: A MIXED METHODS STUDY
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-11)Despite more transgender and gender nonconforming students entering college, little is known about their minority stress and resilience experiences or about how minority stress and resilience factors influence their sexual ... -

Miocene Seismic Stratigraphy, Structural Framework, and Sea-Level Cyclicity: North Carolina Continental Shelf
(1982-12)Preliminary interpretations of over 1000 km of high-resolution seismic reflection data, supplemented by over 100 9-m vibracores, have delineated the shallow stratigraphic and structural framework for several Miocene ... -
miRCancer : a microRNA-Cancer Association Database and Toolkit Based on Text Mining
(East Carolina University, 2010)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of single-stranded small non-coding RNAs. Study of miRNAs has been a fast growing field since the first miRNA was discovered in 1993. Many findings indicate that miRNA plays an important role ... -
miRDiabetes : A microRNA-Diabetes Association Database Constructed With Data Mining on Literature
(East Carolina University, 2014)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a growing class of non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by translational repression. A role for miRNA in diabetes was first established in 2004 and research in miRNA-diabetes association has ... -
miRNA-23a/27a attenuates muscle atrophy and renal fibrosis through muscle-kidney crosstalk
(2018-03-26)Background The treatment of muscle wasting is accompanied by benefits in other organs, possibly resulting from muscle– organ crosstalk. However, how the muscle communicates with these organs is less understood. Two microRNAs ... -
miRNA-36 inhibits KSHV, EBV, HSV-2 infection of cells via stifling expression of interferon induced transmembrane protein 1 (IFITM1)
(2017-12-21)Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is etiologically associated with all forms of Kaposi’s sarcoma worldwide. Little is currently known about the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in KSHV entry. We recently demonstrated ... -
Mirror gait retraining for the treatment of patellofemoral pain in female runners.
(http://www.journals.elsevier.com/clinical-biomechanics, 2012-12)BACKGROUND: Abnormal hip mechanics are often implicated in female runners with patellofemoral pain. We sought to evaluate a simple gait retraining technique, using a full-length mirror, in female runners with patellofemoral ... -
Miscarriages during the pandemic: Relationships between social determinants of health and patient experience
(East Carolina University, 2023-04-26)Title: Pandemic miscarriages: Social determinants of health and patient experiences Background/Purpose: Miscarriage is considered the most common complication of pregnancy in the US, with 750,000-1,000,000 cases ... -
The mismatch between current statistical practice and doctoral training in ecology
(2016-08-17)Ecologists are studying increasingly complex and important issues such as climate change and ecosystem services. These topics often involve large data sets and the application of complicated quantitative models. We evaluated ... -
Mismatched anti-predator behavioral responses in predator-naïve larval anurans
(2015-12-07)Organisms are adept at altering behaviors to balance the tradeoff between foraging and predation risk in spatially and temporally shifting predator environments. In order to optimize this tradeoff, prey need to be able to ... -
