Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Interventions to promote physical activity (PA) in children attending family child care homes (FCCHs) require valid, yet practical, measurement tools. The aim of this study was to assess the validity of two proxy report instruments designed to measure PA in children attending FCCHs. METHODS: A sample of 37 FCCH...

Creator:: Sutton, Shan C.
Abstract:: This has been a banner year for open access, and the momentum shows no sign of letting up. College and university faculties, and the granting agencies that fund a significant amount of their research, are increasingly embracing open access to ensure research findings across disciplines are freely accessible to the...

Abstract:: Inhaled and intranasal corticosteroids (ICS and INS) are among the mainstays of the treatment for asthma and allergic rhinitis, respectively, and also carry the potential to suppress the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis. Several important factors affect the interpretability of trials investigating the impact of ICS and INS on the HPA axis....

Creator:: Copeman, Louise A., Laurel, Benjamin J., and Parrish, Christopher C.
Abstract:: The utility of the fatty acid biomarker (FAB) approach in fisheries ecology is limited by our understanding of how biotic and abiotic factors determine dietary markers in fish tissues. An 8-week laboratory experiment was conducted on two species of juvenile gadids (Pacific cod, Gadus macrocephalus and walleye Pollock, Theragra chalcogramma)...

Creator:: Faith, Jennifer, Thorburn, Sheryl, and Tippens, Kimberly M.
Abstract:: OBJECTIVES: To improve understanding of factors that may influence disclosure of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use in the U.S. DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. METHODS: Data are from the 2001 Health Care Quality Survey (HCQS), a nationally representative study of adults aged 18 and older living in the continental United States....

Creator:: Finch, David and Hickmann, Kyle S.
Abstract:: The spectrum of the interior transmission problem is related to the unique determination of the acoustic properties of a body in thermoacoustic imaging. Under a non-trapping hypothesis, we show that sparsity of the interior transmission spectrum implies a range separation condition for the thermoacoustic operator. In odd dimensions greater than...

Creator:: Bavarian, Niloofar, Flay, Brian R., Ketcham, Patricia L., and Smit, Ellen
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: The illicit use of prescription stimulants (IUPS) has emerged as a high-risk behavior of the 21st century college student. As the study of IUPS is relatively new, we aimed to understand 1) characteristics of IUPS (i.e., initiation, administration routes, drug sources, motives, experiences), and 2) theory-guided intrapersonal, interpersonal, and...

Abstract:: Context: Antibiotic prescribing in hospice patients is complicated by the focus on palliative rather than curative care and concerns regarding increasing antibiotic resistance. Objective: To estimate antibiotic use in a national sample of hospice patients and identify facility and patient characteristics associated with antibiotic use in this population. Methods: This...

Abstract:: Irrigation percolation can be an important source of shallow aquifer replenishment in arid regions of the southwestern United States. Aquifer recharge derived from irrigation percolation can be more significant in fluvial valleys overlying shallow aquifers where highly permeable soils allow rapid water infiltration and aquifer replenishment. We used data from...

Creator:: Hong, Wei-Li, Torres, Marta E., Kim, Ji-Hoon, Choi, Jiyoung, and Bahk, Jang-Jun
Abstract:: The significance of the various carbon cycling pathways in driving the sharp sulfate methane transition (SMTZ) observed at many locations on continental margins is still a topic of debate. Unraveling these processes is important to our understanding of the carbon cycle in general and to evaluate whether the location of...
