Functional status and fall risk among older adult participants in community-based exercise programs : Do Better Bones & Balance® participants outperform their peers?

Creator:: Trevis, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Purpose: This study examines the relationship between community-based fitness class participation and risk for falls in adults aged 55 or older. Our aim was to compare scores on fall risk factors between community-based Better Bones & Balance® (BBB) participants and active peers who engage in other (non-BBB) community-based fitness classes....

Diversity and composition of mammal and bird communities in northern Pantanal, Brazil

Creator:: Coe, Lauren E.
Abstract:: The Pantanal is one of the largest wetlands in the world, covering 195,000 km2 across Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. It has a unique annual flooding regime with the majority of land being completely inundated during the wet season, which provides important habitat for threatened species such as jaguars (Panthera onca)...

Biochar Infiltration Columns for Removal of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in Stormwater

Creator:: Lippman, Lauren
Abstract:: Water is one of the world’s most valued commodities, and antibiotic-resistant bacteria are one of the emerging pollutants of concern. Stormwater runoff picks up pollutants such as bacteria as it runs over impervious surfaces and into waterbodies. This project tested the use of biochar columns as an effective and inexpensive...

Alternative Carrier Solvents for Use with Resolubilized Fungal Pigments to IncreaseInternal Color Coverage in Wood Substrates

Creator:: Pittis, Lauren
Abstract:: Five solvents were used to resolubilize the fungal pigments of Chlorociboria aeruginosa and Scytalidium cuboideum, two common fungi used in the spalting of wood pieces. These solvents were tested as a replacement for dichloromethane in the pigment application process, via analysis of their ability to increase internal color coverage inside...

Exploring Asian and Asian American Specific Body Mass Index Cut-Points

Creator:: Lee, Lauren J.
Abstract:: Background: Body Mass Index (BMI) is used as a quick and inexpensive tool to measure populations at risk for a number of metabolic and chronic conditions. In part due to its simplicity, BMI has been criticized for its inaccurate prediction concerning health outcomes. Due to the diversity in the United...

The metabolic and clinical responses of Arabian horses with exertional rhabdomyolysis to a standardized field exercise test

Creator:: Eyrich, Lauren V.
Abstract:: Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER), or the occurrence of muscle damage with exercise, is prevalent among Arabian horses, the most common breed participating in endurance racing. The cause and pathogenesis of this disease has yet to be determined, and due to the potential for significant morbidity and even mortality associated with ER...

Breaking Down Blackout: Building Understanding of Media Effects at OSU

Creator:: Dillard, Lauren L.
Abstract:: In the days following Oct. 5, 2007, the staff of The Daily Barometer - the student newspaper at Oregon State University - was left scrambling for understanding. The paper published a image of a man wearing black face paint for an event called "Blackout Reser." That black face paint looked...

Attachment as a Significant Predictor of Problem-Solving Persistence in Pet and Working Dogs

Creator:: Nissinen, Prema J.
Abstract:: It has been demonstrated that dogs form attachment bonds to their owners and that these attachments can be classified and described in ways that are analogous to attachments found between human infants and their mothers. While a secure attachment to a parent has been shown to improve problem-solving abilities in...

Analyzing the use of the acellular DCFH assay as a means of determining oxidative stress induced in zebrafish embryos exposed to lanthanide oxide nanoparticles

Creator:: Engstrom, Arek
Abstract:: The ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to induce oxidative stress on organisms has been linked to NP cytotoxicity and genotoxicity for a variety of organisms. One proposed mechanism of this increased oxidative stress is the ability of NPs to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). Due to the dynamic nature and small...

A Comparative Analysis of U.S. News Media Coverage on Masks between the 1918 Influenza and COVID-19 Pandemics

Creator:: Nguyen, Mindy
Abstract:: Over 100 years separate the 1918 Influenza and COVID-19 pandemics, and a multitude of science, public health and communication advancements have emerged. With the COVID-19 pandemic still underway, recently reaching the one million death mark in the United States alone (CDC, 2020), researchers are searching for clues as to how...
