The impact of secondary lymphedema after head and neck cancer treatment on symptoms, functional status, and quality of life
(2010-08-05)
Because surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy disrupt lymphatic structures, damage soft tissue leading to scar tissue formation and fibrosis, and further affect lymphatic function, head and neck cancer patients may be ...
Infrared neural stimulation of Aplysia californica
(2011-08-08)
Infrared neural stimulation (INS) has been shown to induce neural activity with spatial selectivity without inducing a stimulation artifact or necessitating tissue contact. Most experiments with this technology have been ...
Situating Pathos in English Drama of the Long Eighteenth Century
(2010-08-05)
This study looks at Pathetic Drama alongside contemporary changes in thinking about the nature of knowledge and the attendant changes in thinking about the relation of self to the material world. Empiricism and aesthetics ...
Dopamine sensing with carbon nanotubes and graphite electrodes
(2011-08-08)
The superior material properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) such as high aspect ratio, high surface area, superb mechanical properties, thermal and chemical stability have generated enormous research activities to push for ...
Synthesis and biological evaluation of dispyrin, synthesis and design of selective M4 muscarinic modulators, and exploration of the total synthesis of piperazimycin A
(2010-08-09)
The content described in detail in this dissertation covers natural product guided drug discovery, traditional hit-to-lead medicinal chemistry and advances in total synthesis. The synthesis and biological evaluation of ...
Welcome! Democratic attitudes and reactions toward immigrants in Latin America’s emerging democracies
(2010-08-12)
Scholars of support for democracy have historically been concerned with its causes, with the assumption that higher support for democratic values will enhance the chances of democracy’s survival in the country. Beyond this ...
Roles of adhesion G protein-coupled receptors during zebrafish gastrulation and neuronal migration
(2013-07-31)
Gastrulation is a fundamental process during embryogenesis when the germ layers and shape of the animal are generated. Although the major cell movements during gastrulation have been characterized, the underlying cellular ...
Sterically demanding ligands and their effect on the structure and reactivity of main group metal complexes
(2010-08-11)
The effects of adding steric bulk to the ligands of main group organometallic complexes are examined in this dissertation. First, bulky allyl complexes of beryllium and magnesium, using the 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)allyl ...
Analysis of Intestinal Splanchnopleure Development
(2012-08-06)
Mesothelium is a simple squamous epithelium that forms the surface layer of all coelomic cavities and organs. Despite its widespread localization, mesothelial development has been studied almost exclusively in the heart. ...
A fully embedded Silicon On Insulator Total Ionizing Dose monitor
(2013-07-31)
Total ionizing dose (TID) effect is a kind of radiation effects. It’s related with the charge build up in the insulator caused by the radiation. This radiation induced charge build up will pose reliability issue and is a ...
