Revitalization or Gentrification?: An Examination of Urban Renewal Areas and Housing Instability in Oregon

Creator:: Perreault, Matthew
Abstract:: Housing affordability is a salient topic among policymakers and the general public today, especially in Oregon. As housing costs continue to rise, there are concerns that urban planning policies such as urban renewal via tax-increment financing (TIF) are exacerbating the problem and pushing more households into a state of housing...

Characterization of Mitochondrial Metabolism in L6 Rat Myoblasts

Creator:: Burney, Emily R.
Abstract:: The prevalence of obesity is increasing worldwide, causing a subsequent increase in insulin resistance (IR), metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Although these conditions significantly impact both the individual and society, their etiologies have not been discovered, inhibiting potential prevention and treatment. Alterations to mitochondrial metabolism are implicated in the development...

Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Insulin Action and Fatty Acid Trafficking with Obesity and Exercise

Creator:: Stierwalt, Harrison D.
Abstract:: Altered skeletal muscle fat metabolism is linked to changes in skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity. Whereby the accumulation of bioactive signaling lipids (i.e., diacylglycerols and ceramides) within skeletal muscle are negatively associated with insulin sensitivity and the exercise-induced changes to fatty acid trafficking are related to improved skeletal muscle insulin action....

Regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondria in response to obesity and exercise in mice and humans

Creator:: Batterson, Philip M.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscle mitochondria are highly plastic organelles, integral to whole-body health. High-fat diet (HFD) and exercise remodel the skeletal muscle mitochondria. Whereby, altered skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is linked to decreased skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity which can be reversed by exercise. However, the mechanisms that contribute to skeletal muscle remodeling...

Understanding Statin Use in America and Gaps in Patient Education (USAGE): An Internet-Based Survey of 10,138 Current and Former Statin Users

Creator:: Cohen, Jerome D., Brinton, Eliot A., Ito, Matthew K., and Jacobson, Terry A.
Abstract:: Background: Statins substantially reduce cardiovascular disease risk and are generally well-tolerated, but many patients discontinue therapy. A better understanding of the characteristics of current and former statin users may be helpful for formulating strategies to improve long-term adherence. Objective: The Understanding Statin Use in America and Gaps in Education (USAGE)...

From Perception to Planning : Adaptation in Flood-risk Communities

Creator:: Gomez, Luis A.
Abstract:: This research asserts that flood risk perception of individuals living in floodplains influences their preparedness for taking actions to protect themselves from flood hazards. The results of this research are backed up by quantitative analysis of survey responses of individuals living in floodplains of Corvallis, OR in the USA. The...

Reallocating resources, rebuilding community : the Klamath Basin agreements and the emergence of adaptive governance

Creator:: Chaffin, Brian C.
Abstract:: The concept of "adaptive governance" represents a spectrum of hybrid approaches to environmental governance employed to guide management of complex social-ecological systems under conditions of high uncertainty. While the concept of adaptive governance has benefited from over a decade of theoretical development, empirical examples of transitions towards adaptive governance are...

The Roles of Recruitment, Species Interactions, and Oceanographic Context in Structuring Rocky Intertidal Communities of the Pacific Northwest and Atlantic Canada

Creator:: Meunier, Zechariah D.
Abstract:: Long-term, large-scale studies of meta-ecosystems provide critical information about how global change influences communities. In my dissertation, I analyzed data from studies encompassing 18 years (2006 – 2023) and over 1,000 km of coastline to investigate drivers of rocky intertidal community structure and dynamics. Specifically, I explored the roles of...

Experimental methodology for segmenting the postsecondary education market

Creator:: McNabb, David Earl
Abstract:: The objective of the study was to identify and evaluate a methodology of market segmentation analysis for use in postsecondary education institution enrollment management. Two approaches to segmentation were examined: A priori and post hoc., The a priori approach was based on subject's intent to enroll at one of five...

Central Desert Studies : Archaeological Survey and Excavation in Baja California, Mexico

Creator:: Willis, Samuel C.
Abstract:: This dissertation serves as a contribution to the study of the prehistory of the Central Desert region of Baja California, Mexico. Between 2007 and 2011, a trans-peninsular archaeological survey and excavation program―the Central Desert Early Prehistory Project (CDEPP)―was completed for a portion of the Baja California peninsula extending from the...
