Effect of Exercise Training on Metabolic Syndrome z-score : the Association of C- reactive protein
(East Carolina University, 2015-06-25)PURPOSE: Previous studies have shown that metabolic syndrome z-score (MetSynZ) is improved with exercise training. Metabolic syndrome is based upon insulin resistance, such that it would be expected for insulin resistance ... -
Effect of green tea Polyphenon 60 on microRNA expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells
(East Carolina University, 2010)In Western countries, breast cancer is the most common form of cancer and it is the second leading cause of female cancer death in America. The biochemical basis of the observed anti-oncogenic properties of green tea has ... -
The Effect of Home-School Communication on Treatment Integrity
(East Carolina University, 2014)Federal policy and school psychology practice have recently increased advocacy for the use of evidence-based interventions. Treatment integrity is an important component of evidenced-based interventions and individuals ... -
The Effect of Injury Prevention Training Programs on Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Team Sport Athletes
