Late gastrointestinal tissue effects after hypofractionated radiation therapy of the pancreas
(2015)Background: To consolidate literature reports of serious late gastrointestinal toxicities after hypofractionated radiation treatment of pancreatic cancer and attempt to derive normal tissue complication probability ... -
Leading and Sustaining Curricular Change: Workshop Proceedings from the 2018 Sex and Gender Health Education Summit
(2019-11-12)The education of health science professionals must balance the incorporation of new and essential content against the current curriculum density. Scientific evidence documenting the impact of sex and gender on health ... -
Legislative Perceptions of Sustainable Tourism : The Case of the North Carolina General Assembly
(East Carolina University, 2011)The tourism industry is the second largest contributor to North Carolina's economy. The traditional thrust behind many national and state tourism policies has focused on the industry's employment potential and opportunities ... -
Lexical diversity in Parkinson’s disease
(2015-03-02)Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative syndrome of the basal ganglia (BG) believed to disrupt cortical-subcortical pathways critical to motor, cognitive and expressive language function. Recent studies ... -
The lhfpl5 Ohnologs lhfpl5a and lhfpl5b Are Required for Mechanotransduction in Distinct Populations of Sensory Hair Cells in Zebrafish
(2020-01-15)Hair cells sense and transmit auditory, vestibular, and hydrodynamic information by converting mechanical stimuli into electrical signals. This process of mechano-electrical transduction (MET) requires a mechanically ... -
Life in a contaminant milieu: PPCP mixtures generate unpredictable outcomes across trophic levels and life stages
(2019-12-05)Nearly all aquatic ecosystems are affected by sublethal levels of anthropogenic chemical contamination, but other agents of large‐scale anthropogenic disruption of ecosystems have received more attention. Consequently, ... -

Limited indications of tax stamp discordance and counterfeiting on cigarette packs purchased in tobacco retailers, 97 counties, USA, 2012
(2017-09-28)Increasing the per-unit cost of tobacco products is one of the strongest interventions for tobacco control. In jurisdictions with higher taxes in the U.S., however, cigarette pack litter studies show a substantial proportion ... -
LOCATIONAL ASPECTS OF ADAPTIVE REUSE : THE CASE OF NORTH CAROLINA`S TEXTILE MILLS
(East Carolina University, 2010)This thesis examines the adaptive reuse of historic textile mills in North Carolina. The decline of the textile industry, which employed over 300,000 North Carolinians at its peak, has left scores of mills abandoned on the ... -
Long Noncoding RNA Expression Signatures of Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma and Their Prognostic Value
(2015)Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently been found to play important roles in various cancer types. The elucidation of genome-wide lncRNA expression patterns in metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) could reveal ... -
Long-term nutrient enrichment of an oligotroph-dominated wetland increases bacterial diversity in bulk soils and plant rhizospheres.
(2020-05-20)In nutrient-limited conditions, plants rely on rhizosphere microbial members to facilitate nutrient acquisition, and in return, plants provide carbon resources to these root-associated microorganisms. However, atmospheric ... -
Long-term nutrient enrichment, mowing, and ditch drainage interact in the dynamics of a wetland plant community.
(2020-10-16)Fertilization studies have elucidated basic principles of the role of nutrients in shaping plant communities and demonstrated the potential effects of anthropogenic nutrient deposition. Yet less is known about how these ... -
Low alpha power (7.5–9.5 Hz) changes during positive and negative affective learning
(2003-03)There is evidence that the positive and the negative word lists of the Affective Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AAVL) are useful with regard to mood induction. To date, however, changes in brain activation, as indicated ... -

Luminescence characteristics of quartz from Brazilian sediments and constraints for OSL dating
(2013-09-27)This study analyzes the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) characteristics of quartz grains from fluvial, eolian and shallow marine sands of northeastern and southeastern Brazil, with especial focus on the applicability ... -
m6A Regulates Breast Cancer Proliferation and Migration through Stage-dependent Changes in Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition Gene Expression
(2023-11-07)While many factors have been implicated in breast cancer progression, effective treatments are still lacking. In recent years, it has become clear that posttranscriptional regulation plays a key role in the aberrant gene ... -
The Madden-Julian Oscillation: A Tool for Regional Seasonal Precipitation Outlooks?
(2017-09-20)Abstract: The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is an important intraseasonal climate signal which circles the global tropics, but also impacts extratropical weather regimes. Few studies have investigated whether the MJO is ... -
Making a List and Checking it Twice: Creating a Sustainable Future in User Experience
(2015-03-27)A ten-person task force assessed staffing responsibilities, guidelines, processes, and data gathering procedures for user experience (UX) for a library system. Multiple models for carrying out UX in a library were tested ... -
Making Art Responsibly
(East Carolina University, 2010)This essay is a written defense for the body of work titled, "How Does Your Garden Grow?" as well as an examination of how art can behave responsibly in regards to the social process. -
The Mammalian Spermatogenesis Single-Cell Transcriptome, from Spermatogonial Stem Cells to Spermatids
(2018-11-06)Spermatogenesis is a complex and dynamic cellular differentiation process critical to male reproduc- tion and sustained by spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). Although patterns of gene expression have been described for ...
