The Effect Of Experimental Gastric Dilatation-Volvulus On The Adenosine Triphosphate Content And Cellular Permeability Of The Canine Gastric And Jejunal Mucosa, Laura Elizabeth Peycke
The Effect Of Experimental Gastric Dilatation-Volvulus On The Adenosine Triphosphate Content And Cellular Permeability Of The Canine Gastric And Jejunal Mucosa, Laura Elizabeth Peycke
LSU Master's Theses
This study was designed to characterize changes in the content of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and cellular permeability of gastric and jejunal mucosa during gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV). Our hypothesis stated that experimental GDV would result in a decrease in ATP content and cellular integrity of the gastric and intestinal mucosa that may improve after decompression and derotation of the stomach. Fifteen medium-to-large mixed-breed male dogs were randomly divided into three groups: GDV dogs, Ischemia dogs and Control dogs. All dogs were maintained on gas anesthesia for 210 minutes. The GDV dogs had a GDV for 120 minutes with a 90-minute period …
Evaluating The Effectiveness Of A Parent Training Program On Adolescent Mothers And Their Communicative Interactions With Their Children, Sonja Lee Pruitt
Evaluating The Effectiveness Of A Parent Training Program On Adolescent Mothers And Their Communicative Interactions With Their Children, Sonja Lee Pruitt
LSU Master's Theses
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the “Tips About Talk” parent-training classes for increasing adolescent mothers’ knowledge about their children’s speech and language development and the quality of mothers’ interactions with their children. Seven mother-child dyads served as participants. All of the participating mothers were single, African American, and enrolled in a GED program. The mean age of the mothers was 20.57 years, and their mean educational level was 9.29 years. Their children were between the ages of 24 and 67 months. The experimental treatment involved four “Tips About Talk” parent-training workshops. The control …
Comparative Study Of Analog And Digital Hearing Aids, Adam Benjamin Lopez
Comparative Study Of Analog And Digital Hearing Aids, Adam Benjamin Lopez
LSU Master's Theses
The purpose of the present study was to determine if objective and/or subjective differences between analog and digital hearing aids exist when blinding is utilized in the protocol and circuitry is controlled. Ten normal hearing and seven hearing impaired subjects were monaurally fitted with analog and digital hearing aids. Probe microphone measures were obtained at the plane of the tympanic membrane at two output levels (40 dB SPL and 70 dB SPL). Listener performance in quiet was evaluated via word recognition testing, listener performance in noise was evaluated via the Hearing in Noise Test, and listener preference was evaluated via …
A Descriptive Study Of At Risk Mothers' Interactions With Their Children, Vicky Lynn Poston
A Descriptive Study Of At Risk Mothers' Interactions With Their Children, Vicky Lynn Poston
LSU Master's Theses
The purpose of this study was to describe the home environment and nature of mother-child interactions of low-income African-American mothers. The subjects included eight mother-child dyads. All of the mothers were single, African-American and working toward a G.E.D. Their age ranged from 17-30 years of age. Their children ranged in age from 24-67 months. A home visit and a mother-child play session that was collected at the children’s child care center were utilized to collect the data. The findings from the current study were consistent with the literature reviewed in that most of the mothers produced a decreased speech rate, …
Antipredator Conditioning In Mississippi Sandhill Cranes (Grus Canadensis Pulla), Jennifer Jill Heatley
Antipredator Conditioning In Mississippi Sandhill Cranes (Grus Canadensis Pulla), Jennifer Jill Heatley
LSU Master's Theses
The Mississippi Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis pulla), the most endangered North American crane, is considered critically endangered and is protected by Federal and State law. Substantial funding has established the Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Mississippi and an artificial insemination / breeding facility at the Audubon Center for Research of Endangered Species in New Orleans, Louisiana to promote species recovery. In spite of extensive time, labor, and money invested in captive propagation, juvenile Mississippi Sandhill Cranes suffer substantial mortality due to predation by bobcats (Lynx rufus), coyotes (Canis latrans) and red tailed hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) upon reintroduction …
