Sources Of Saturated Fat And Sucrose In The Diets Of Swedish Children And Adolescents In The European Youth Heart Study: Strategies For Improving Intakes, Emma Patterson, Julia Wärnberg, John Kearney, Michael Sjostrom Jan 2010

Sources Of Saturated Fat And Sucrose In The Diets Of Swedish Children And Adolescents In The European Youth Heart Study: Strategies For Improving Intakes, Emma Patterson, Julia Wärnberg, John Kearney, Michael Sjostrom

Articles

To compare macronutrient intakes of Swedish children and adolescents to population goals; to identify the major sources of energy, fat, saturated fat and sucrose; and to simulate the effect adherence to current food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG) would have on saturated fat and sucrose intakes. Cross-sectional study. From 24 h recall data, food groups contributing most to energy, fat, saturated fat and sucrose were identified. Based on the prevailing consumption of foods mentioned in the FBDG, we simulated five scenarios: changes in milk and yoghurt; cheese; energy-dense, nutrient-dilute foods; soft drinks; and burger and sausage consumption. Stockholm and Örebro (Sweden) in …


Multiple Asf/Sf2 Sites In The Human Papillomavirus Type 16 (Hpv-16) E4-Coding Region Promote Splicing To The Most Commonly Used 3'-Splice Site On The Hpv-16 Genome, Monika Somberg, Stefan Schwartz Jan 2010

Multiple Asf/Sf2 Sites In The Human Papillomavirus Type 16 (Hpv-16) E4-Coding Region Promote Splicing To The Most Commonly Used 3'-Splice Site On The Hpv-16 Genome, Monika Somberg, Stefan Schwartz

Articles

Our results presented here demonstrate that the most abundant human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) mRNAs expressing the viral oncogenes E6 and E7 are regulated by cellular ASF/SF2, itself defined as a proto-oncogene and overexpressed in cervical cancer cells. We show that the most frequently used 3′-splice site on the HPV-16 genome, site SA3358, which is used to produce primarily E4, E6, and E7 mRNAs, is regulated by ASF/SF2. Splice site SA3358 is immediately followed by 15 potential binding sites for the splicing factor ASF/SF2. Recombinant ASF/SF2 binds to the cluster of ASF/SF2 sites. Mutational inactivation of all 15 sites abolished …

Dietary Energy Density As Marker Of Dietary Quality In Swedish Children And Adolescents: The European Youth Heart Study, Emma Patterson, J. Wärnberg, E. Poortvliet, John Kearney, M. Sjöström

Articles

To investigate if dietary energy density is associated with measures of dietary quality (food group, micronutrient and macronutrient intakes) in children and adolescents.


Hypercapnic Acidosis Reduces Oxidative Reactions In Endotoxin-Induced Lung Injury, Alistair D. Nichol, Donall F. O'Cronin, Finola Naughton, Natalie Hopkins, John Boylan, Paul Mcloughlin Jan 2010

Hypercapnic Acidosis Reduces Oxidative Reactions In Endotoxin-Induced Lung Injury, Alistair D. Nichol, Donall F. O'Cronin, Finola Naughton, Natalie Hopkins, John Boylan, Paul Mcloughlin

Articles

Hypercapnic acidosis frequently occurs when patients with acute lung injury are initially ventilated with low tidal volume "protective" strategies. Hypercapnic acidosis per se, in the absence of any change in tidal volume or airway pressure, is protective when instituted before the onset of injury. However, the mechanisms by which hypercapnic acidosis confers this protection are incompletely understood, in particular, the effects on pulmonary oxidative reactions, which are potent mediators of tissue damage, have not been previously examined in vivo.

The Ties That Bind: Social Bonds In Shakespeare's The Merchant Of Venice, Lillian Nicole Rogers Jan 2010

The Ties That Bind: Social Bonds In Shakespeare's The Merchant Of Venice, Lillian Nicole Rogers

Honors Theses

This thesis studies The Merchant of Venice with particular regards to the role of social bonds in the community of the play and in the actions of the characters. These bonds serve as ties that connect the characters to each other and also to the dominant social structure of their world—a structure that is patriarchal, class-based, and ostensibly Christian. The following chapters focus on four types of bonds that are especially vital to the play: those relating to law, gender, classes, and religion. These bonds manifest themselves in different areas of life, but they are all rooted in the workings …


Droplet Pinch Off Dynamics In Viscoelastic Fluid, Andrew Jonathan Thurber Jan 2010

Droplet Pinch Off Dynamics In Viscoelastic Fluid, Andrew Jonathan Thurber

Honors Theses

The rate at which fluid streams condense into droplets and separate is, in general, not linear with respect to time. Numerous Newtonian fluids have been studied and modeled, and the general form of such droplet pinches is that the radius of the narrowest portion of the stream collapses to a singularity as a function of time prior to pinch raised to a power <1. This experiment examines the case of a non-Newtonian fluid composed of various concentrations of CTAB and NaSal, to determine if the time scaling of droplet pinch varies with the concentration of the fluid and if the fluid’s elasticity affects this collapse. To investigate this, a high speed camera with a macro lens operating at 15kfps (15,000 frames per second) was positioned in front of a clear tube, over which a pipette of the solution was suspended. The fluid was then slowly released to form droplets, and the recorded images were analyzed using a computer program written by Dr. Joseph Gladden. The results show that as concentration of the micellar fluid increases, the exponent of the time scaling decreases. This shows that wormlike micellar fluids do not follow scaling trends of Newtonian fluids, and further theoretical work is needed.

Sidewalks Matter: A Transportation Policy Study And Plan For Sidewalks In Clinton, Ms, Elizabeth Jayne Joseph Jan 2010

Sidewalks Matter: A Transportation Policy Study And Plan For Sidewalks In Clinton, Ms, Elizabeth Jayne Joseph

Honors Theses

The primary goal for this thesis is to provide the necessary research and analysis about the importance of sidewalks for Clinton, Mississippi, so that the city will have a plan and a study to support the implementation of a comprehensive sidewalks construction project. This thesis is grounded in theory and recent research on sidewalks. After establishing the theoretical and empirical arguments in favor of sidewalks as a significant transportation policy concern, I outline a three-phase plan for constructing sidewalks in Clinton. The plan delineates the three phases based on specific roads’ varying degrees of importance to community life. Following the …


Investigating The Effects Of Antioxidant Vitamins On The Immunocompetence Of Domestic Turkeys (Meleagris Gallopavo) Infected With Coccidian Parasites, Joseph Griffin Orr Jan 2010

Investigating The Effects Of Antioxidant Vitamins On The Immunocompetence Of Domestic Turkeys (Meleagris Gallopavo) Infected With Coccidian Parasites, Joseph Griffin Orr

Honors Theses

Vitamins are organic compounds essential for healthy metabolism and growth. Additionally, some vitamins also function as antioxidants. In particular, the antioxidant vitamins A (p-carotene) and E (a-tocopherol) are known to enhance the immune response of many animals as well as humans. However, there is relatively little research linking these immune-enhancing effects to domestic turkeys facing parasitic infections, such as coccidiosis. Coccidiosis in birds is expensive to treat, costing the worldwide poultry industry hundreds of millions of dollars annually. Coccidia of the genus Eimeria are protozoans that parasitize poultry via the intestinal tract, causing deleterious effects to survival such as lesioning, …
