Determining the validity and reliability of the Nicholas Manual Muscle Tester as a measure of isometric strength in women with arthritis

Creator:: Sierra, Nelson
Abstract:: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the validity and reliability of the Nicholas Manual Muscle Tester (NMMT), a portable dynamometer, as a measure of the isometric strength in women with arthritis. Female subjects (N=13; 66 ± 13.89 yrs.) with arthritis were tested for isometric muscle strength on the...

A comparison of bone mineral density between active and nonactive men with spinal cord injuries

Creator:: Eddins, William C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare the levels of bone mineral density (BMD) of the whole body (WB) and proximal femurs of physically active men with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to nonactive men with spinal cord injuries. Also, the lean muscle mass (LMM) of active men with SCI...

The effectiveness of a static and dynamic balance training program for children with cerebral palsy

Creator:: Senisi, Michael
Abstract:: Balance is the ability to establish an equilibrium between the body and its environment. Balance is a key component which is associated with a variety of movements and postural control. Children with cerebral palsy (CP) have difficulties with movement and postural control due to physical and neurological limitations. The purpose...

Effects of a resistance exercise program on activities of daily living of elderly women

Creator:: DeVries, Christine L.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if a 5-month progressive-resistance exercise program would affect measures of activities of daily living (ADLs) and functional stability in elderly women. All subjects were ambulatory women, 80 to 93 years old, who lived in assisted-care facilities. Eight exercise and 7 control subjects...

Natural Organic Matter Surface Coverage as a Predictor of Heteroaggregation between Nanoparticles and Colloids

Creator:: Oney, Dylan M.
Abstract:: Heteroaggregation of nanoparticles with naturally occurring colloids has been shown to be an important process in nanoparticle fate and transport in the aquatic environment. The advent of a functional assay to measure heteroaggregation attachment efficiencies has opened the door for further mechanistic studies. It is well known that natural organic...

Copper Speciation in Wastewater-Impacted Surface Waters

Creator:: Mosbrucker, Ariel M.
Abstract:: This study investigates the relationship between total and ionic copper in samples taken from the Tualatin River and wastewater treatment facilities (WWTFs) that discharge into the Tualatin River. Copper speciation was analyzed by determining conditional stability constants and densities of copper binding ligands on the dissolved organic matter (DOM) in...

Evaluation of copper removal from stormwater runoff using compost and Apatite II™

Creator:: Silvertooth, Jason R.
Abstract:: Low concentrations of dissolved copper have proven to be harmful to a number of aquatic organisms, with recent research highlighting detrimental effects to endangered salmonid species. Stormwater runoff can represent a significant source of copper to surface waters, necessitating cost-effective alternatives to current stormwater best management practices (BMPs). This study...

Heteroaggregation of gold nanoparticles with model colloids and the influence of environmental aqueous chemistry

Creator:: Pike, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Nanoparticles are becoming increasingly important in numerous technological fields but evidence shows that they can be toxic to many organisms. To predict their fate and transport in the environment, nanoparticle attachment to naturally occurring colloids must be examined. This study investigated citrate-capped gold nanoparticle (Cit-AuNP) heteroaggregation with two model colloids...
