Comparison of non-invasive to invasive oxygenation ratios for diagnosing acute respiratory distress syndrome following coronary artery bypass graft surgery: a prospective derivation-validation cohort study
(2018-11-27)Objective: To determine if non-invasive oxygenation indices, namely peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2)/ fraction of inspired oxygen (Fi O2) and partial pressure of alveolar oxygen (PAO2)/Fi O2 may be used as ... -
A comparison of two keyboarding instruction methods over 2 years for elementary students.
(2021-07)Background: As computer and digital device use continues to grow in prevalence for school and work tasks, it is important for elementary-aged students to develop efficient keyboarding skills to support future academic and ... -
Comparison of Whole Blood and Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell Gene Expression for Evaluation of the Perioperative Inflammatory Response in Patients with Advanced Heart Failure
(2014-12-17)Background: Heart failure (HF) prevalence is increasing in the United States. Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) therapy is an option for Advanced HF (AdHF) patients. Perioperatively, multiorgan dysfunction (MOD) is ... -
Complementary Therapies for Significant Dysfunction from Tinnitus: Treatment Review and Potential for Integrative Medicin
(2015)Tinnitus is a prevalent and costly chronic condition; no universally effective treatment exists. Only 20% of patients who report tinnitus actually seek treatment, and when treated, most patients commonly receive sound-based ... -
Complex N-Glycans Influence the Spatial Arrangement of Voltage Gated Potassium Channels in Membranes of Neuronal-Derived Cells
(2015-09-08)The intrinsic electrical properties of a neuron depend on expression of voltage gated potassium (Kv) channel isoforms, as well as their distribution and density in the plasma membrane. Recently, we showed that N-glycosylation ... -
A Complicated “Simple” Renal Cyst
(2012-11-16)Background: Simple renal cysts are usually asymptomatic and benign. Rarely, symptoms and complications can develop from local mass effect which is illustrated by this case. Case Presentation: 77 year old Caucasian ... -
Comprehensive analysis of TCP transcription factors and their expression during cotton (Gossypium arboreum) fiber early development
(2016-02-09)TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors implicated to perform a variety of physiological functions during plant growth and development. In the current study, we performed for the first time the comprehensive ... -
The Comprehensive Post-Acute Stroke Services (COMPASS) study: design and methods for a cluster-randomized pragmatic trial
(2017-07-17)Background: Patients discharged home after stroke face significant challenges managing residual neurological deficits, secondary prevention, and pre-existing chronic conditions. Post-discharge care is often fragmented ... -
Comprehensive track-structure based evaluation of DNA damage by light ions from radiotherapy- relevant energies down to stopping
(2017-03-27)Track structures and resulting DNA damage in human cells have been simulated for hydrogen, helium, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and neon ions with 0.25–256 MeV/u energy. The needed ion interaction cross sections have been ... -
Computational identification of microRNAs associated to both epithelial to mesenchymal transition and NGAL/MMP-9 pathways in bladder cancer
(2016-11-08)Bladder cancer is one of the leading cancer of the urinary tract. It is often diagnosed at advanced stage of the disease. To date, no specific and effective early detection biomarkers are available. Cancer development and ... -
Computational Modeling of PI3K/AKT and MAPK Signaling Pathways in Melanoma Cancer
(2016-03-25)Background Malignant melanoma is an aggressive tumor of the skin and seems to be resistant to current therapeutic approaches. Melanocytic transformation is thought to occur by sequential accu- mulation of genetic and ... -
Computer self-efficacy, anxiety, and learning in online versus face to face medium
(2012-01-01)The purpose of this research is to examine the relationships between changes to computer self-efficacy (CSE) and computer anxiety and the impact on performance on computer-related tasks in both online and face-to-face ... -
COMT Inhibition Alters Cue-Evoked Oscillatory Dynamics during Alcohol Drinking in the Rat
(2018-10-12)Alterations in the corticostriatal system have been implicated in numerous substance use disorders, including alcohol use disorder (AUD). Adaptations in this neural system are associated with enhanced drug-seeking behaviors ... -
The concept of essential use for determining when uses of PFASs can be phased out
(2019-05-27)Because of the extreme persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and their associated risks, the Madrid Statement argues for stopping their use where they are deemed not essential or when safer alternatives ... -
