Hypoxia and Hypoglycemia synergistically regulate mRNA stability
(2017-07)
Ischemic events, common in many diseases, result from decreased blood flow and impaired delivery of oxygen and glucose to tissues of the body. While much is known about the cellular transcriptional response to ischemia, ...
Identifying Keys to Success in Innovative Teaching: Student Engagement and Instructional Practices as Predictors of Student Learning in a Course Using a Team- Based Learning Approach
(2017-09)
When implementing innovative teaching techniques, instructors often seek to gauge the success of their methods. Proposing one approach to assessing classroom innovation, this study examines the ability of students’ ratings ...
Software for objective comparison of vocal acoustic features over weeks of audio recording: KLFromRecordingDays
(2017-10-09)
KLFromRecordingDays allows measurement of Kullback–Leibler (KL) distances between 2D probability distributions of vocal acoustic features. Greater KL distance measures reflect increased phonological divergence across the ...
A single dose of trichloroethylene given during development does not substantially alter markers of neuroinflammation in brains of adult mice
(2017-04-03)
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a widespread environmental contaminant associated with developmental immu- notoxicity and neurotoxicity. Previous studies have shown that MRLþ/þ mice exposed to TCE from gesta- tion through ...
Applying the Socio-Ecological Model to barriers to implementation of ACL injury prevention programs: A systematic review
(2017-09-28)
Background: Preventing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries is important to avoid long-term adverse health consequences. Identifying barriers to implementation of these prevention programs is crucial to reducing the ...
An Improved Algorithm to Delineate Urban Targets with Model-Based Decomposition of PolSAR Data
(2017-10-11)
In model-based decomposition algorithms using polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) data, urban targets are typically identified based on the existence of strong double-bounced scattering. However, urban targets ...
Anaerobic utilization of Fe(III)-xenosiderophores among Bacteroides species and the distinct assimilation of Fe(III)- ferrichrome by Bacteroides fragilis within the genus
(2017-08)
In this study, we show that Bacteroides species utilize Fe(III)-xenosiderophores as the only source of exogenous iron to support growth under iron-limiting conditions in vitro anaerobically. Bacteroides fragilis was the ...
Adults and Children in Low-Income Households That Participate in Cost-Offset Community Supported Agriculture Have High Fruit and Vegetable Consumption
(2017-07-08)
This paper examines fruit and vegetable intake (FVI) in low-income households that participated in a cost-offset (CO), or 50% subsidized, community-supported agriculture (CSA) program. CSA customers paid farms upfront for ...
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 ...
