Employment hours and household tasks : a longitudinal analysis

Creator:: Hawley, Jeffrey E.
Abstract:: The effect of changes in employment hours on changes in household task hours was studied. Data were used from the National Survey of Families and Households (NSFH) waves one and two. Wave one was a probability sample of 13,017 age 19 and older in the United States who were interviewed...

Potential influences of oral contraceptive use and physical activity on bone health : a one-year prospective study in young women

Creator:: Almstedt Shoepe, Hawley Chase
Abstract:: Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease affecting 44 million Americans. A primary strategy to prevent osteoporosis is to develop a high peak bone mass in youth. Oral Contraceptives (OCs) alter hormones in women and could affect bone mass development. The interaction between OCs and skeletal mineralization is poorly understood. PURPOSE: Our...

Effect of the calpain inhibitor E-64-d on the degradation of α-fodrin in damaged muscle

Creator:: Boyd, Jeffrey
Abstract:: We hypothesized that calpain activity is elevated in response to muscle damage. To test this hypothesis, we examined the degradation of α-fodrin into its 150 and 145 kDa fragments following either 20 eccentric or isometric contractions. In addition, experiments were performed in the presence or absence of E-64-d, a calpain...

Statistical enhancement of support vector machines

Creator:: Taylor, Aimee E.
Abstract:: Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Random Forests (RF) have consistently outperformed other machine learning algorithms on a variety of problems. SVM can be used for classification and regression on many types of data (e.g. nonlinear, high dimensional), but cannot handle missing or mixed data. This research implements a permutation-based variable...

Protein isoform-function relationships of single skeletal muscle fibers from weight-bearing and hindlimb suspended mice

Creator:: Stelzer, Julian E.
Abstract:: The goals of this research were to a) characterize the protein-function relationships of skeletal muscle single fibers from the mouse hindlimb b) examine mouse-strain related differences in myosin heavy chain composition (MHC) and single fiber contractile function, and c) quantify changes in fiber size and contractile function in response to...

Biology of the carpenter ants Camponotus vicinus (Mayr) and Camponotus modoc (Wheeler) in western Oregon

Creator:: Mankowski, Mark E.
Abstract:: Pest control operators in Oregon were surveyed to examine the occurrence of carpenter ants and other wood destroying organisms in structures. Carpenter ants frequently occurred in the coast and Willamette valley regions of the state and were associated with wetter, mesic habitats. To examine the effects of substrate and moisture...

Environmental estrogens and skeletal development disruption in the fathead minnow : A teleost model of vertebrate developmental toxicity

Creator:: Warner, Kara E.
Abstract:: Natural and synthetic estrogenic compounds detected in surface waters have been linked to endocrine signaling disruption in several species. Endogenous estrogen contributes to cartilage and bone deposition during development in vertebrates, and is susceptible to perturbation from xenoestrogens. The goals of this work were to develop a teleost model to...
