Key Priorities to Implement Deprescribing in Primary Health Care in Nova Scotia: Results from the Deprescribing in Primary Health Care in Nova Scotia Knowledge Exchange Event (June 20, 2019)
(2020-03-03)Inappropriate medication use and polypharmacy are associated with increased adverse drug reactions, hospitalizations and mortality. Deprescribing has been found to decrease the use of medications and medication costs and ... -
Lipophilic sugar nucleotide synthesis by structure-based design of nucleotidylyltransferase substrates
(2008-02)Structure-based design of alkyl sugar-1-phosphates provides an efficient nucleotidylyltransferase-catalyzed synthesis of a series of new lipophilic sugar nucleotides possessing long or branched alkyl chains, thereby ... -
Measuring Knowledge Translation Uptake Using Citation Metrics: A Case Study of a Pan-Canadian Network of Pharmacoepidemiology Researchers
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)ABSTRACT Collecting citation metric data is important, as research funders are increasingly demanding impact assessment, but there is limited consensus on the most rigorous and accurate approach. We compared three ... -
A Method for Structure-Activity Analysis of Quorum-Sensing Signaling Peptides from Naturally Transformable Streptococci
(2009-12)Many species of streptococci secrete and use a competence-stimulating peptide (CSP) to initiate quorum sensing for induction of genetic competence, bacteriocin production, and other activities. These signaling molecules ... -
The relationship between type of drug therapy and blood glucose self-monitoring test strips claimed by beneficiaries of the Seniors' Pharmacare Program in Nova Scotia, Canada
(2008)BACKGROUND: The healthcare expenditure on self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) test strips under the Nova Scotia Seniors' Pharmacare Program (NSSPP) has increased significantly in recent years. The objective of this ... -
Scale disparity and spectral transfer in anisotropic numerical turbulence

Structure-activity analysis of quorum-sensing signaling peptides from Streptococcus mutans
(2007-02)Streptococcus mutans secretes and utilizes a 21-amino-acid signaling peptide pheromone to initiate quorum sensing for genetic competence, biofilm formation, stress responses, and bacteriocin production. In this study, we ... -
Synthesis of a novel fluorinated phosphonyl C-glycoside, (3-deoxy-3-fluoro- F β-d-glucopyranosyl)methylphosphonate, a potential inhibitor of β- phosphoglucomutase Postprint
(Elsevier, 2023)β-phosphoglucomutase (βPGM) catalyzes the conversion of β-glucose 1-phosphate (βG1P) to glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), a universal source of cellular energy, in a two-step process. Transition state analogue (TSA) complexes ... -
Universal intermittent properties of particle trajectories in highly turbulent flows
(2008-06)We present a collection of eight data sets from state-of-the-art experiments and numerical simulations on turbulent velocity statistics along particle trajectories obtained in different flows with Reynolds numbers in ...
