Ros-Mediated Oxidative Stress Influence Anti-Apoptotic Genes And Cyt C Release In Hyperglycemic Mouse Kidneys To Initiate Late Nephropathic Complications, Krina Shah, Mayur S. Parmar, Sidhartha D. Ray Jan 2009

Ros-Mediated Oxidative Stress Influence Anti-Apoptotic Genes And Cyt C Release In Hyperglycemic Mouse Kidneys To Initiate Late Nephropathic Complications, Krina Shah, Mayur S. Parmar, Sidhartha D. Ray

HPD Articles

Decades of intense research has shown that hyperglycemiainduced ROS production can lead to a redox-imbalance causing oxidative stress (OS) in a variety of target organs in vivo. In the absence of an efficient antioxidant counteracting system, massive OS often leads to activation of stress-responsive signaling pathways resulting in deregulated expression of pro-survival and/or pro-death genes. Persistent deregulation of such pathways eventually masterminds late complications of diabetes. Most studies hold hyperglycemia-induced OS as the ‘cause’, and premature onset of apoptosis as the ‘effect’. This ‘cause and effect’ axis ultimately initiates the development and progression of macro and microvascular complications including diabetic …

An Assessment Of Faculty Usage Of Youtube As A Teaching Resource, Sloane C. Burke, Shonna Snyder, Robin C. Rager

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Creative classroom techniques incorporating technology promote a more productive and enriched learning environment. Preparing future health educators in today’s technology-driven society requires faculty to adopt new teaching strategies which motivate and engage the new tech-savvy Web 2.0 generation. YouTube® is a popular online video-sharing web site for both scholarly and non-scholarly communication. Currently, there are no published studies on the quantitative assessment of faculty utilization of YouTube in the health education classroom. The purpose of this pilot study was to 1) determine faculty’s current and potential utilization of YouTube in their classes; 2) identify faculty perceptions of the benefits of …

Design Of Introductory Course To Improve Career Decision Making In Dental Hygiene, Angela L. Monson, Brigette R. Cooper

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Dental Hygiene programs have a responsibility to help potential applicants determine if dental hygiene is the best career choice for them. Good fit of career promotes a satisfied workforce, along with program retention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate students’ satisfaction with an introductory course on career choice in dental hygiene and to assess the influence of the course on their perceptions of a career in this profession. Pre- and post-course surveys were distributed to 186 students enrolled in “Perspectives in Dental Hygiene” at a state university. An overall response rate of 97% (N=181) was achieved. The average …

The Hot Seat: Challenging Critical Thinking And Problem Solving Skills In Physical Therapist Students, Bill O'Dell, Jennifer Mai, Alecia Thiele, Andrew Priest, Kathleen Salamon

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Purpose: Allied health profession students must develop critical thinking and problem solving skills to be able to make clinical decisions. The purpose of this paper is to describe an educational model used in a physical therapist education program to improve students’ confidence in clinical decision-making. Methods: The faculty chose topics for each forum and invited specific clinicians to present actual clinical cases to students in small group settings. The small groups spent 30 minutes focused on each case, and then rotated to a different clinician so each had exposure to three scenarios. After presenting subjective clinical information, the clinicians asked …


Using Transformative Learning Theory To Enhance Professional Development, Susan M. Cahill, Michelle Bulanda Jan 2009

Using Transformative Learning Theory To Enhance Professional Development, Susan M. Cahill, Michelle Bulanda

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Purpose: Pediatric occupational therapy and physical therapy interventions for children with disabilities are designed to increase function and often focus on developmental skills instead of on the environmental context and promoting self-determination skills. A professional development course was developed to help therapists develop intervention strategies to meet developmental outcomes, while also promoting children's self-determination and creating opportunities for children to authentically participating in daily routines, including leisure and community play. Transformative learning theory was used as a basis to develop this course. The purpose of this article is to report on course activities and the assessment of participants' "transformation" at …

Blended Learning Environments, Active Participation, And Student Success, Sarah Ransdell, Sandrine Gaillard-Kenney

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Purpose: Online discussion within blended learning environments is essential to student success in a well-designed course. Our research briefly describes ways in which online discussion can be evaluated to predict student learning. The paper will present some online data regarding active and passive use of Web-CT-based course content as it relates to student performance. Methods: Thirty-seven RN (Registered Nurse) to BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) students in a blended online and face-to-face biostatistics course participated in this research for 15 weeks. Results: Students who were engaged in active, original postings to discussion threads in response to relevant, course-based reading …


Age And Lateral Sleep Position: A Pilot Study, Susan Gordon, Petra G. Buettner Jan 2009

Age And Lateral Sleep Position: A Pilot Study, Susan Gordon, Petra G. Buettner

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Purpose: Previous research, undertaken using a Super 8 camera and non-continuous data, has reported that with increasing age, people are more likely to sleep in the right lateral position. It has been postulated that this is due to age related alterations in cardiovascular function. This pilot study was undertaken to determine if collection and analysis of continuous sleep data was a feasible method for further investigation of this topic and to determine the sample size required for an adequately powered study. Increased understanding of age related changes in sleep position may provide valuable information to improve sleep quality and nursing …
