Antimicrobial Activities of Jadomycin B and Structurally Related Analogues
(2009-03)
Natural products are leads for new antibiotics as a result of their structural complexity and
diversity. We have isolated a series of structurally related polyketide-derived natural products
from Streptomyces venezuelae ...
Horizontal Semicircular Canal Occlusion in a Patient with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
(2008-06)
The article presents a case study of a 39 year old man who presented to physicians with
vertigo and nausea. A discussion of diagnostic testing which was conducted on the

Co-activation differences in lower limb muscles between asymptomatic controls and those with varying degrees of knee osteoarthritis during walking
(2009-06)
Abstract: Background: Increased muscle co-activation during gait has been identified as a neuromuscular alteration associated with knee osteoarthritis, however levels of co-activation among different osteoarthritis severity ...
Explaining the hip adduction moment variability during gait: Implications for hip abductor strengthening
(Elsevier, 2009)
Background
There is emerging interest in hip abductor function during gait and its potential relationship to knee joint pathology. During gait, the hip abductor muscles are primarily responsible for generating moments of ...
A Deeper, More Social Ecological Social Work Practice
(University of Chicago Press, 2002-09)
Although an ecological model of social work practice has been important to the profession since the 1970s, advances in ecological theory based on developments in deep ecology (Naess 1989) and social ecology (Bookchin 1980, ...
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 ...
Exercise hemodynamic and neurohormone responses as sensitive biomarkers for diltiazem in rats
(2006-05)
Purpose. To investigate the potential of exercise hemodyanamic and neurohormone
variables as sensitive biomarkers for pre-clinical evaluation of diltiazem (DTZ).
Methods. Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided ...
Expression, distribution and regulation of sex steroid hormone receptors in mouse heart
(S. Karger AG, Basel, 2009)
The effects of sex hormones on the heart are dependent on the presence and distribution of sex steroid hormone receptors (SSHR) in cardiac tissue. This study used subcellular fractionation, Western blot analysis and ...
Evaluating the quality of randomized controlled trials that examine the efficacy of natural health products: a systematic review of critical appraisal instruments
(2009-12)
The purpose of this project was to conduct a systematic review to identify instruments designed to evaluate the quality of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of natural health products (NHPs). Instruments were examined ...
