The Effects of Electronic Medical Records on Patient-Physician Relationships and Interactions
(2016-08-08)In 2009, the federal government passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act as a stimulus bill. This bill included the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, which provided ... -
Effects of Ethanol on Ion Transport in the NavMs Voltage-Gated Sodium Channel: A Molecular Dynamics Study
(2014-05-02)The behavioral effects of alcohol on the human nervous system are well-characterized, yet molecular mechanisms for these effects remain largely unknown. Studies have suggested effects on ion transport as a viable cause for ... -
The Effects of Family Functioning on Birthweight: a Prospective Cohort Study
(2013-05-24)A variety of factors influence how the infant grows while in the womb. This NIH-funded prospective cohort study followed 1,206 mother-infant pairs from their first prenatal care visit to delivery. The focus was on the ... -
The effects of fish oil supplementation on inflammation markers in chronic kidney disease patients.
(2011-01-05)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the daily consumption of fish oil, containing 2.4g of n-3 fatty acids (1400 mg Eicosapentaenoic acid + 1000 mg Docosahexaenoic acid), on pro-inflammatory cytokines, ... -
Effects of Foldables® on teacher instruction.
(2016-11-18)Teachers are continuously seeking effective methods for presenting, processing and practicing concepts that they are responsible for teaching. Note taking and graphic organizers, in many forms, are common instructional ... -
Effects of four weeks of daily soy milk or dairy milk ingestion on the exercise induced inflammatory and oxidative responses in plasma and skeletal muscle in a post-menopausal female population.
(2009-08-24)The process of senescence is associated with increasing inflammation and subsequent oxidative stress in the body, both of which can exert negative health effects at local and systemic levels. Attenuation of such processes ... -
Effects of four weeks of daily soy or dairy milk ingestion on the exercise-induced proteolytic responses in plasma and skeletal muscle in a post-menopausal female population.
(2009-08-25)Sarcopenia is defined as a loss of muscle mass and muscle strength associated with aging. Changes in muscle function can occur as early as the fourth decade of life. Evidence indicates that the calpain and ubiquitin ... -
The effects of freezing on the material properties and structure of bovine medial meniscus.
(2009-08-25)Menisci serve as shock absorbers and stabilizers in the knee. Bovine meniscus is often used as a model for human meniscus because it is inexpensive and readily available. During experiments, the bovine menisci are usually ... -
Effects of G-trainer, cycle ergometry, and stretching on physiological and performance markers of recovery from endurance exercise.
(2010-10-08)The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of 3 recovery treatments (AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill, stationary cycling, and static stretching) on physiological and psychological markers of muscle fatigue ... -
Effects of glucosamine and chondroitan supplementation in women with knee osteoarthritis participating in the Curves fitness and weight loss program: a randomized, placebo controlled, double blind clinical trial.
(2007-03-08)The purpose of this study was to determine whether participation in the Curves fitness and weight loss program and/or ingesting a commercially available glucosamine and chondroitan joint support dietary supplement improved ... -
Effects of habitat affinities and resource needs on edge responses by small mammals.
(, 2012-11-29)Edge effects are the responses of organisms to ecological boundaries. I studied edge responses by small mammals in two prairie communities to test two models: 1) edge responses reflect and map to simple habitat associations, ... -
Effects of habitat complexity on intraguild predation and cannibalism in an assemblage of size-structured predators
(2014-06-02)Intraguild predation (IGP) and cannibalism substantially affect community dynamics but often are poorly documented in food web studies. Feeding choices of generalist predators often relate more to size of prey than to ... -
The effects of heavy resistance exercise in combination with orally administered branched-chain amino acids or leucine on insulin signaling and Akt/mTOR pathway activity in active males.
(2007-12-03)Purpose: To determine if activity of the insulin signaling pathway is increased during lower body resistance exercise due to supplemental BCAA or leucine ingestion. Methods: 30 recreationally trained males (22.5yrs; ... -
Effects of High- and Low-Intensity Exercise on Postprandial Lipemia, Vascular Function, Oxygen Consumption and Energy Consumption After a Meal
(2013-05-24)Postprandial lipemia (PPL) is an exaggerated elevation in the blood triglyceride levels during the hours that follow a meal. In the Western world, most of the population lives in an absorptive state for at least 16 hours ... -
Effects of hind limb unweighting on the expression of physiological markers of muscle atrophy and myofibrillar protein content in the soleus and extensor digitorum longus of Sprague-Dawley rats.
(2006-04-19)The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of hind limb unweighting on the expression of physiological markers of muscle atrophy and myofibrillar protein content in the soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum ... -
The effects of homeschooling on participation in drinking alcohol among adolescents and emerging adults.
(, 2014-06-11)Parents often choose to homeschool their children for reasons that, if their goals are accomplished, should contribute to relatively low levels of substance use among their children. Specifically, many parents desire to ... -
