STepped exercise program for patients with knee OsteoArthritis (STEP-KOA): protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(2019-05-28)
Background:
Physical therapy (PT) and other exercise-based interventions are core components of care for knee osteoarthritis (OA), but both are underutilized, and some patients have limited access to PT services. This ...
Structural insights into flagellar stator– rotor interactions
(2019-07-17)
The bacterial flagellar motor is a molecular machine that can rotate the flagellar
filament at high speed. The rotation is generated by the stator–rotor interaction, coupled with an
ion flux through the torque-generating ...
Temporal Association Between Ischemic Muscle Perfusion Recovery and the Restoration of Muscle Contractile Function After Hindlimb Ischemia
(2019-06-28)
During incomplete skeletal muscle recovery from ischemia, such as that occurs with critical limb ischemia, the temporal relationship between recovery of muscle capillary perfusion and contractile function is poorly defined. ...
Testing the Duke Population Health Profile (Duke-PH) in a Sample of Community Health Center Patients
(2019-09-04)
Introduction: Our purpose was to develop and test a brief, self-report, and scorable survey instrument for measuring population health profiles from the individual respondent's perspective. We defined population health as ...
Nestin in immature embryonic neurons affects axon growth cone morphology and Semaphorin3a sensitivity
(2019-05-01)
Correct wiring in the neocortex requires that responses to an individual guidance cue vary among neurons in the same location, and within the same neuron over time. Nestin is an atypical intermediate filament expressed ...
Use of Short Messaging Service to Improve Follow-Up for Abnormal Pap Test Results in Minority and Medically Underserved Women in North Carolina: Questionnaire on Attitudes and Acceptability
(2019-06-08)
Background: An estimated one in eight cervical cancer cases are due to a lack of follow-up care for abnormal Pap test results. Low rates of completion of follow-up care particularly affect low-income minority women. The ...
Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Glucose Transport and Glucose Metabolism by Exercise Training
(2019-10-12)
Aerobic exercise training and resistance exercise training are both well-known for their ability to improve human health; especially in individuals with type 2 diabetes. However, there are critical differences between these ...
Pulmonary Exposure to Magnéli Phase Titanium Suboxides Results in Significant Macrophage Abnormalities and Decreased Lung Function
(2019-11-28)
Coal is one of the most abundant and economic sources for global energy production. However, the burning of coal is widely recognized as a significant contributor to atmospheric particulate matter linked to deleterious ...
Prevalence, trends, outcomes, and disparities in hospitalizations for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the United States
(2019-07-17)
Background: As the frequency of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) continues to rise in
the United States (US) community, more patients are hospitalized with NAFLD. However, data
on the prevalence and outcomes of ...
Rehabilitation Intervention for Individuals With Heart Failure and Fatigue to Reduce Fatigue Impact: A Feasibility Study
(2019-12-31)
Objective:
To investigate feasibility of recruitment, tablet use in intervention delivery, and use of self-report outcome measures and to analyze the effect of Energy Conservation plus Problem-Solving Therapy versus Health ...
