Gardeners--Kentucky--Louisville--Social conditions; Community gardens--Kentucky--Louisville
Using four surveys, two created by this researcher, another created by Walizcek, Mattson, and Zajicek, and a fourth created by Herbach, the researcher compared the characteristics of community gardeners, their motivations for gardening, and the...
Many conflicting reports have been given in the literature concerning the effect of various factors on the rate of reversal of figure and ground in reversible perspective.
Flugel (7, 8) suggested that changes in eye movement increased the number of...
The fundamental importance of a definite knowledge of the quantity of each amino acid yielded by the several food proteins justifies the expenditure of much effort in studying the analytical methods in order that these may be improved or their...
Chronic periodontitis is strongly associated with composition of the oral biofilm
occupying the gingival crevicular aspect of the tooth and its associated root. Some gram-negative,
"red complex" bacteria instigate periodontal bone loss in...
Cardiology--Research--Methodology; Microfluidics--Equipment and supplies
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States and accounts for nearly 1,372,000 deaths each year. In addition, ~81 million Americans suffer from some form of CVD. Understanding the molecular basis of various...
Electroencephalography; Visual evoked response; Drug addicts--Research
In 2006 it was estimated by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration (SAMHSA, 2007) that 19.9 million Americans used illicit drugs, computing to roughly 8.0 % of the United States population. In 2007, there were 2.1 million...
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a C-19 adrenal steroid and the most abundant circulating hormone in humans. Since circulating levels decline in late adulthood, treatment of humans with DHEA has been suggested to have beneficial health effects....
Evidence suggests that cortical minicolumns are reduced in size and increased in number in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), especially in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). More specifically minicolumns in individuals with...
Mixed-effects model is an efficient tool for analyzing longitudinal data. The random effects in mixed-effects model can be used to capture the correlations among repeated measurements within a subject. The time points are not fixed and all...
The most important non-protein nitrogenous constituents of milk are urea, creatinine, creatine, and uric acid. Urea is the diamide of carbonic acid and is the chief end-product, so far as nitrogen is concerned, of the physiological metabolism of...
The past decade has brought about major advances in the realms of both
healthcare and biometrics. New technologies and techniques in the field of biometrics
has allowed for the quick and efficient identification of people, while new...
University of Louisville. School of Dentistry; Dental students; Women dental students; Laboratories
Rows of students, mostly male, although there is at least one woman, standing at laboratory stations at University of Louisville School of Dentistry. Bottles and test tubes are at each station. Written on back of photograph: Physiological...
Electromyography; Spinal cord--Wounds and injuries
Introduction: Approximately 12,000 new cases of spinal cord injury (SCI) are reported each year in the US. Currently, the most widely used method of assessing the recovery of voluntary capability after spinal cord injury is the American Spinal...
Integrins are major receptors for cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix, and play key roles in various cellular processes including adhesion, migration, proliferation and survival. Apart from developmental and physiological events, integrins...
Corpus callosum; Diagnostic imaging; Autism--Diagnosis
Early detection of human disease in today’s society can have an enormous impact
on the severity of the disease that is manifested. Disease such as Autism and Dyslexia,
which have no current cure or proven mechanism as to how they develop, can...
As far as I have been able to determine from the scant literature at hand, no attempt has been made as yet to determine the percentage of non-protein nitrogen in milk by a procedure simple enough for use as a clinical method. This problem was...
Cortical and tectal inputs to the caudal LPN in the rat were examined using anatomical and physiological techniques. Pyramidal cells in layer 6 of the visual cortex and wide-field vertical cells in the stratum opticum of the superior colliculus...
At the present time there is not much known about derivatives of acridine. However, there are derivatives of acridine which are important as dyes, drugs and antiseptics. Chrysaniline, rheonine, benzoflavine, are examples of leather dyes which are...
Menthol has been regularly utilized as a treatment in sports related injuries for many years, yet little is known about its physiological interactions or its effect on performance. Our previous study indicates that topically applied menthol may...
It is not the primary purpose of this present work to treat the problem of the evolution of behavior, but rather to give an analysis of animal behavior as observed. These observations may appear as simple tests, but they make possible a new way to...
