A Pilot Study Examining Body Composition Classification Differences Between Body Mass Index and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis in Children With High Levels of Physical Activity
(2021)Background: Body mass index (BMI) is frequently labeled as flawed in assessing obesity since it cannot differentiate between muscle and fat leading to misclassifications of healthy individuals. Bioelectrical impedance ... -
Student Perceptions Of An Online Mathematics Curriculum Designed For Students With Learning Difficulties
(2016)Paper presents research on the perception of technology use including dimensions of computer self-efficacy, motivation, and independence of use of electronic support tools of students with learning difficulties in the ... -
Automatic Segmentation and Cardiac Mechanics Analysis of Evolving Zebrafish Using Deep Learning
(2021)Background: In the study of early cardiac development, it is essential to acquire accurate volume changes of the heart chambers. Although advanced imaging techniques, such as light-sheet fluorescent microscopy (LSFM), ... -
Time-Resolved and Temperature-Dependent Fractional Amplitude Contributions to the Broadband Emission of CdSe Quantum Dots
(2021)The broadband spontaneous emission of excitons in CdSe quantum dots (QDs) is of great interest for the spectral imaging of living organisms or specific substances in the visible spectral region as well as in the biological ... -
Concurrent and overlapping surgery: perspectives from surgeons on spinal posterior instrumented fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
(2021)Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine perspectives of surgeons regarding simultaneous surgery in patients undergoing posterior spine instrumentation and fusion (PSIF) for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). ... -
Posttraumatic nuchal pseudolipoma in a high school athlete after weight training
(2021)Pseudolipomas are an uncommon clinical manifestation appearing as a non-encapsulated prominence of subcutaneous fat on MRI. Post-traumatic pseudolipomas (PTLs) are thought to arise from neoadipogenesis following acute or ... -
Factors That Affect Patient Attrition in Buprenorphine Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder: A Retrospective Real-World Study Using Electronic Health Records
(2021)Purpose: To describe attrition patterns of opioid use disorder (OUD) patients treated with buprenorphine (BUP) and to assess how clinical, sociodemographic, or BUP medication dosing features are associated with attrition. ... -
Squaraine-Based Optical Sensors: Designer Toolbox for Exploring Ionic and Molecular Recognitions
(2021)Small molecule-based chromogenic and fluorogenic probes play an indispensable role in many sensing applications. Ideal optical chemosensors should provide selectivity and sensitivity towards a variety of analytes. Synthetic ... -
Anxiety, Motivation, and Competence in Mathematics and Reading for Children With and Without Learning Difficulties
(2021)Knowledge of the relations among learners' socio-emotional characteristics and competencies as they engage in mathematics and reading is limited, especially for children with academic difficulties. This study examined the ... -
Costly Signals? Democracy Aid Shocks And Political Repression, 1981-2013
(2021)Developed states increasingly turned to democracy assistance strategies as the Cold War came to an end. A number of recent studies conclude that such aid positively affected democratization in recipients. But, like foreign ... -
Essential role of M1 macrophages in blocking cytokine storm and pathology associated with murine HSV-1 infection
(2021)Ocular HSV-1 infection is a major cause of eye disease and innate and adaptive immunity both play a role in protection and pathology associated with ocular infection. Previously we have shown that M1-type macrophages are ... -
Preventing opioid use among justice-involved youth as they transition to adulthood: leveraging safe adults (LeSA)
(2021)Background: Juvenile justice (JJ) youth are at high risk of opioid and other substance use (SU), dysfunctional family/social relationships, and complex trauma. The purpose of the Leveraging Safe Adults (LeSA) Project is ... -
Premature cognitive decline in specific domains found in young veterans with mTBI coincide with elder normative scores and advanced-age subjects with early-stage Parkinson's disease
(2021)Importance Epidemiologists report a 56% increased risk of veterans with (+) mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) developing Parkinson's disease (PD) within 12-years post-injury. The most relevant contributors to this high ... -
MOND-like behavior in the Dirac-Milne universe Flat rotation curves and mass versus velocity relations in galaxies and clusters
(2021)Aims. Observational data show that the observed luminous matter is not sufficient to explain several features of the present universe, from gravitational structure formation to the rotational velocities in galaxies and ... -
Protein Modification By ADP-Ribose Via Acid-Labile Linkages
(1995)As substrate for protein-mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases, NAD has been shown to be the donor of ADP-ribose to many different nucleophiles found in proteins. This post-translational modification of proteins has been implicated ... -
Developmental thyroid disruption causes long-term impacts on immune cell function and transcriptional responses to pathogen in a small fish model
(2021)Current evidence suggests thyroid hormones (THs) impact development of the immune system, but few studies have explored the connection between the thyroid and immune systems, especially in fish. This is important as some ... -
Infusing 21st Century Skill Development into the Undergraduate Curriculum: The Formation of the iBEARS Network
(2021)The demonstrated gap between skills needed and skills learned within a college education places both undergraduates seeking gainful employment and the employers seeking highly skilled workers at a disadvantage. Recent and ... -
Space, Time, and Reflexive Interviewing: Implications for Qualitative Research with Active, Incarcerated, and Former Criminal Offenders
(2013)Space and time are concepts familiar to physicists, philosophers, and social scientists; they are operationalized with varying degrees of specificity but are both heralded as important to contextualizing research and ... -
David versus Goliath: The Relation between Auditor Size and Audit Quality for UK Private Firms
(2021)We examine the relation between auditor size and audit quality for a sample of U.K. private firms. Private firms prioritize tax considerations over reducing information asymmetry in their financial reporting. We find that ... -
Time-dependent broken-symmetry density functional theory simulation of the optical response of entangled paramagnetic defects: Color centers in lithium fluoride
(2018)Parameter-free atomistic simulations of entangled solid-state paramagnetic defects may aid in the rational design of devices for quantum information science. This work applies time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) ...
