Enzymatic Characterization Of The Ammonia Tunnel In Helicobacter Pylori Asp-Trnaasn/glu-Trnagln Amidotransferase
… amidotransferase (AdT) plays important roles in indirect aminoacylation and translational fidelity; however, its inter-domain communication and ammonia delivery mechanisms are not well understood. In the present study, we investigated the three activities of <i>H. …

Observance of Parental Violence and Its Association With Responses of College Students to an Analog Dating Task
… responded to the Analog Dating Task (ADT). The ADT is composed of video scenarios depicting dating couples. It was found that witnessing parental violence was associated with the endorsement of physical violence on the ADT when participants were classified using a physical violence …

DOES STRENGTH TRAINING IMPROVE MUSCULOSKELETAL HEALTH AND BODY COMPOSITION IN BLACK MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER ON ANDROGEN DEPRIVATION THERAPY?
… treated using androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). However, ADT induces numerous adverse side effects, including loss of muscle mass, strength, power, and physical function with concomitant increases in fat mass, fatigue, and bone fractures. Because strength training (ST) can reverse these …

Reducing Opioid Use Following Posterior Spinal Fusion Procedures: A Pilot Project
… Objective: To pilot an analgesic decision tree (ADT) featuring non-opioid analgesics to reduce postoperative pain, opioid consumption, and the incidence of adverse events during the first 48 hours after patients undergo a posterior spinal fusion. Methods: A literature review of opioid-sparing …

Heating it up: a novel approach to annealing soluble organic semiconductors
… on triethylsilylethynyl-anthradithiophene (TES-ADT), a small molecule organic semiconductor. TES-ADT can be dissolved in toluene and spin-cated onto pre-fabricated FET structures on a degenerately-doped silicon substrate, which is used as the gate. A 400nm thick thermally grown oxide is used to …

Self-reported Exercise and Risk of Osteoporosis in Prostate Cancer Patients Receiving Androgen Deprivation Therapy
… to testosterone. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) leads to chemical castration and suppression of prostate cancer cell production. Testosterone levels less then 300ng/ml decreases bone mineral density and could result in osteoporosis. Studies have shown that during the first year of ADT, …

Characterization of six Arabidopsis AROGENATE DEHYDRATASE promoters
… To deduce the specialized role of each ADT, unique patterns of regulatory motifs were identified for all six ADT promoters, as well as corresponding transcription factors with similar expression profiles to each enzyme. Seven stable transgenic Arabidopsis lines were also generated using …

Examination of the Anterior Drawer and Talar Tilt Manual Stress Tests
… of a joint. The Anterior Drawer Test (ADT) and the Talar Tilt (TT) are two tests used at the ankle to determine mechanical instability. Upon review of previous research there is a paucity of studies that rate the reliability of the ADT and TT. Research has shown that manual stress tests …

Exercise as medicine : reversing treatment toxicities in prostate cancer patients
… males, is androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). However, ADT is associated with an array of adverse effects including reduced bone and lean mass, loss of muscle strength, negative change in lipid profile, and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) as well as diabetes, all of which …

Scattering of an entropy disturbance into sound by a linear cascade of turbine stator blades
… actuator disk theory. The actuator disk theory (ADT) ignores the geometric details of a blade under the assumption that wavelengths of all the disturbances are much longer than the chord length of the blade and replaces it with a discontinuity at position x0, referred in this thesis as the origin …

Anharmonic Acoustic Technique for Detection of Surface-bound Particles
… is termed as the anharmonic detection technique (ADT). A feasibility study with Bacillus subtilis spores in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) is carried out successfully where the modeling and experimental results with SCPM are successfully reproduced. A detection limit of 430 spores is demonstrated, …

Exercise and nutrition induced weight loss for prostate cancer patients
… patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and how exercise and nutrition interventions can be used to induce fat loss, while preserving or improving lean mass. Study 1 (Chapter 4) is an examination of the efficacy of a weight loss program in altering body composition in overweight and …
