A Perspective on Systemic Nutrition and Nutritional Genomics
(East Carolina University, 2009)
The brain and the gut work synergistically with each other and other organs. Reviewing nutrition systemically (rather than by single organs) is a holistic way for dietitians to evaluate their clients’ health status. ...
Systemic Nutrition: What's YOUR Gut Reaction?
(East Carolina University, 2008)
Presentation accompanying lecture for receiving the Lenna Frances Cooper Award at the 2008 Food and Nutrition Conference and Exhibition of the American Dietetic Association
Sisserou Talks about Health and Nutrition
(East Carolina University, 2009)
This booklet was used in a training program for community health aides in the Commonwealth of Dominica.
Otoconin-90 Deletion Leads to Imbalance but Normal Hearing: A Comparison with Other Otoconia Mutants
(East Carolina University, 2008-04)
Our sense of gravitation and linear acceleration is mediated by stimulation of vestibular hair cells through displacement of otoconia in the utricle and saccule (the gravity receptor organ). We recently showed that otoconin-90 ...
Orphan Glutamate Receptor delta-1 Subunit Required for High-Frequency Hearing
(East Carolina University, 2007-06)
The function of the orphan glutamate receptor delta subunits (GluR 1 and GluR 2) remains unclear. GluR 2 is expressed exclusively in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum, and GluR 1 is prominently expressed in inner ear ...
A Quantitative Survey of Gravity Receptor Function in Mutant Mouse Strains
(East Carolina University, 2005-12)
The purpose of this research was to identify vestibular deficits in mice using linear vestibular evoked potentials (VsEPs). VsEP thresholds, peak latencies, and peak amplitudes from 24 strains with known genetic mutations ...
Functional Aging of the Inner Ear Sensory Systems in Mouse Models of Age-Related Hearing Loss
(East Carolina University, 2009)
Age related structural and functional change in the cochlea have been well described and predisposing factors including genetic background, gender, and environmental factors have been identified. To date, nine genetic loci ...
Pain Management after Cardiac Surgery
(East Carolina University, 2009)
Postoperative pain relief is one of the most important concerns for patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is one of the most clinically challenging problems for nurses. It is widely recognized that postoperative pain can ...
Trends in esophageal cancer and body mass index by race and gender in the state of Michigan
(East Carolina University, 2009-06-23)
Background: Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus has been increasing in incidence in the U.S. over the past several decades, particularly among white males. The factors driving the racial disparity in adenocarcinomas rates are ...
Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ Regulates the Expression of Alveolar Macrophage Macrophage Colony- Stimulating Factor
(East Carolina University, 2008-07-01)
Macrophage CSF (M-CSF) regulates monocyte differentiation, activation, and foam cell formation. We have observed that it is elevated in human pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) and in the GMCSF knockout mouse, a murine ...
