Forecasting the Effects of Fertility Control on Overabundant Ungulates: White-Tailed Deer in the National Capital Region by Ann M. Raiho (835731)

“…We evaluate this alternative using white-tailed deer in national parks in the vicinity of Washington, D.C., USA as a model system. Managers seek to reduce densities of white-tailed deer from the current average (50 deer per km²) to decrease harm to native plant communities caused by deer. …”

Toughening of polystyrene using styrene-butadiene rubber (SBRr) waste from the shoe industry by Carlos Bruno Barreto Luna (5111234)

“…Verified was an increase of impact resistance of 189% to the blend that contained 50% of SBR rather than pure Polystyrene. On the other hand, the traction properties, hardness Shore D, thermal deflection temperature (HDT) and Vicat softening temperature of the blends tended to decrease when compared to pure Polystyrene results. …”

Cilostazol protects against changes caused by streptozotocin-induced diabetic retinopathy by Diego José Schebelski (13106179)

“…The cilostazol-treated nondiabetic rats had a significantly higher mean nuclei count in the inner nuclear layer and inner plexiform layer as compared with the other groups (p<0.05). …”

Amyloid biogenesis (Aβ40 and Aβ42) is unaffected by the PBA mediated stimulation in AICD production. by Jesse C. Wiley (234079)

“…PBA stimulated γ-secretase mediated proteolysis approximately ten-fold (A and B) in parallel assays to the ELISA measures for Aβ40 (C) and Aβ42 (D). Each concentration step in the PBA titration induced a statistically significant increase in Gal4-reporter activity ([PBA] shift: 0 to 0.5 mM, p<0.0003; 0.5 mM to 1.5 mM, p<0.0002; 1.5 mM to 5 mM, p<0.0001; analysis performed with the values in (A)). …”

Newborn screening timeliness quality improvement initiative: Impact of national recommendations and data repository by Marci K. Sontag (8662200)

“…Goals developed by the Secretary of Health and Human Services’ Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns and Children (ACHDNC) for NBS timeliness were adopted (time-critical results reported by five days of life, and non-time-critical results reported by day seven), and implemented into a multi-year quality improvement initiative (NewSTEPS 360) aimed to decrease the time to result reporting and intervention.…”

HCMV-Induced Changes in Glycolytic Metabolites by Joshua Munger (66985)

“…Transcriptional data are depicted graphically at the relevant enzymatic step by the following symbols (shown in red): +, increased and −, decreased ≥1.5-fold in HCMV infection versus mock infection and <i>p</i> < 0.05 based on ANOVA analysis; NC, no change, either not significant by ANOVA or effect of HCMV < 1.5-fold. …”

Influence of point mutations on proton sensitivity. by Katsuya Ohbuchi (559460)

“…The F587A, F591A and L670A mutations markedly decreased proton sensitivity. …”

Computational analysis distinguishes BMP-FGF cross inhibition models. by Shyam Srinivasan (522850)

“…<p>(<b>A</b>) Representative models of the four classes of BMP-FGF cross inhibition (see text for details). …”

Versatile Actuators Based on Polypyrrole-Coated Metalized Eggshell Membranes by Mihaela Beregoi (4523500)

“…In a chamber with controlled humidity, the decrease of humidity stimulates a bending/curling motion of the actuator, achieving a displacement of ∼2.1 cm at 50% relative humidity. …”
