The impact of child-centered play therapy on anxiety levels in pre-neurosurgical pediatric patients

Creator:: Lerwick, Julie L.
Abstract:: The prevalence of childhood illness requiring hospitalization establishes the need for implementation of an applied intervention to decrease levels of hospitalization-induced anxiety in pediatric patients. In addition to anxiety, levels of perceived trauma have also been linked to pre-operative pediatric patients. Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) within the medical setting has...

Developmental toxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons : defining mechanisms with systems-based transcriptional profiling

Creator:: Goodale, Britton C.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous in the environment as components of fossil fuels and by-products of combustion. Defining toxicity mechanisms for this large family of multi-ring structures and substituted derivatives is a substantial challenge. Several PAHs, such as benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), are mutagenic, toxic to wildlife, and classified as probable...

Genome-enabled discovery and characterization of type III effector-encoding genes of plant symbiotic bacteria

Creator:: Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.
Abstract:: Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...

California condors in the Pacific Northwest : integrating history, molecular ecology, and spatial modeling for reintroduction planning

Creator:: D'Elia, Jesse
Abstract:: Reintroduction programs are increasingly being used to save animals from extinction and aid in their recovery. The California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus), one of the most endangered birds in the world, is a remarkable example of how reintroduction programs can help rapidly increase a species' population numbers and range following a...

Nanotoxicology to Nanotherapeutics : Prioritizing Hazard and Anticancer Efficacy of Nanomaterials using the Embryonic Zebrafish Model

Creator:: Wehmas, Leah C.
Abstract:: The numerous different types of nanomaterials and paucity of reliable in vivo information on toxicity has resulted in enduring uncertainties associated with health and safety risks, thereby slowing progress in nanotherapeutic assessment and development. This dissertation explores how the embryonic zebrafish model can be applied to prioritize commonly used nanomaterial...

New Treatments for HIV and Cancer: Uncovering Bioactive Compounds from Small Molecule Sources

Creator:: Overacker, Ross D.
Abstract:: Small molecule drugs have been instrumental in our fight against diseases, beginning when some of the earliest ancient cultures used plant remedies to treat illnesses. More recently, the skill of isolating and characterizing the active ingredients within bioactive plants and microbial extracts has led to the isolation and design of...
