Increased Systemic Th17 Cytokines Are Associated with Diastolic Dysfunction in Children and Adolescents with Diabetic Ketoacidosis
(2013-08-27)Diastolic dysfunction suggestive of diabetic cardiomyopathy is established in children with T1DM, but its pathogenesis is not well understood. We studied the relationships of systemic inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and ... -
Increased TNF-alpha and sTNFR2 levels are associated with high-grade anal squamous intraepithelial lesions in HIV-positive patients with low CD4 level
(2017-12-01)Compared with HIV-negative individuals, HIV-positive individuals have a higher prevalence of anogenital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, the causative agent of anogenital cancer. TNF-alpha is a major proinflammatory ... -
The infection and impact of Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571 on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(2017-11-30)Based on our previous study, cereal crop wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) could be infected by rhizobia Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571, and form para-nodules with the induction of 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, a common plant ... -
Inflammation and acute traffic-related air pollution exposures among a cohort of youth with type 1 diabetes
(2019-08-13)Background: Evidence remains equivocal regarding the association of inflammation, a precursor to cardiovascular disease, and acute exposures to ambient air pollution from traffic-related particulate matter. Though youth ... -
Influence of Community‐Based Dental Education on Practice Choice: Preliminary Data from East Carolina University
(2019-09-01)Maldistribution of the dental workforce contributes to poor access to oral health care. Community‐based dental education (CBDE) may help to address this problem by using experiential learning to encourage new dentists to ... -
Influence of density and salinity on larval development of salt-adapted and salt-naïve frog populations
(2020-01-08)Environmental change and habitat fragmentation will affect population densities for many species. For those species that have locally adapted to persist in changed or stressful habitats, it is uncertain how density ... -
The influence of impact-based severe weather warnings on risk perceptions and intended protective actions
(2018-04-03)This paper presents the results of an online survey of the New Zealand public (n = 1364), conducted in 2015, that tested the influence of impact-based severe weather warnings on risk perceptions and intended protective ... -
Influence of maternal physical exercise on fetal and maternal heart rate responses
(2019-05-02)This study aims to determine if regular maternal physical exercise leads to measurable adaptations of the fetal autonomic nervous system (fANS) tested by fetal heart rate recovery time. A randomized controlled trial enrolled ... -
Influence of Pre-Heating Regular Resin Composites and Flowable Composites on Luting Ceramic Veneers with Different Thicknesses
(2019-06-04)The aim of this study was to evaluate of pre-heating, filler contents and ceramic thickness on film thickness, microshear bond strength, degree of conversion and color change on ceramic veneers. Two experimental composites ... -
The influence of resistance exercise training on the levels of anxiety in ischemic stroke
(2012-11-11)The aim of this pilot study was to analyze the effect of a strength training program on indicators of trait and state anxiety in patients with ischemic stroke. The subjects were divided into two groups: experimental group ... -
Informational Odds Ratio: A Useful Measure of Epidemiologic Association in Environment Exposure Studies
(2012-04)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 ... -
“The Ingenious Unravelling of Evidence”: Empathy, Extinction, and Wells’s The Croquet Player
(2019-09-01)While we are increasingly challenged to imagine a world without humans, we have also become increasingly attentive to the subject of empathy, in popular culture, the humanities, and the sciences. In The Time Machine (1895), ... -
Inhibition of Autoimmune Diabetes in NOD Mice by miRNA Therapy.
(2015)Autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic islets in Type 1 diabetes is mediated by both increased proinflammatory (Teff) and decreased regulatory (Treg) T lymphocytes resulting in a significant decrease in the Treg:Teff ... -
Inhibition of CD44 intracellular domain production suppresses bovine articular chondrocyte de-differentiation induced by excessive mechanical stress loading
(2019-10-17)CD44 fragmentation is enhanced in chondrocytes of osteoarthritis (OA) patients. We hypothesized that mechanical stress-induced enhancement of CD44-intracellular domain (CD44-ICD) production plays an important role in the ... -
Inhibition of vascular smooth muscle growth via signaling crosstalk between amp-activated protein kinase and camp-dependent protein kinase
(2012-10-29)Abnormal vascular smooth muscle (VSM) growth is central in the pathophysiology of vascular disease yet fully effective therapies to curb this growth are lacking. Recent findings from our lab and others support growth control ... -
Innovative Controller Design for a 5MW Wind Turbine Blade
(2018-06-29)The development and evaluation of a nonlinear pitch controller for wind turbine blades and the design and modeling of an associated actuator and controller was examined. The pitch actuator and controller were modeled and ... -
Insights into Diversity in the Environmental Health Science Workforce
(2022-02-07)Environmental Health Science (EHS) professionals protect the public from environmental threats by conducting risk assessments and recommending preventative measures based on scientific findings. The EHS field itself is ... -
Insulin/IGF1-PI3K-dependent nucleolar localization of a glycolytic enzyme – phosphoglycerate mutase 2, is necessary for proper structure of nucleolus and RNA synthesis
(2015)Phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM), a conserved, glycolytic enzyme has been found in nucleoli of cancer cells. Here, we present evidence that accumulation of PGAM in the nucleolus is a universal phenomenon concerning not ... -
