Procollagen Biosynthesis and Osteoblast Malfunction in the G610C Mouse Model of Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary disease that disrupts bone formation and function resulting in skeletal deformities and fragile bones. OI is diagnosed based on clinical and radiological examination, with patient symptoms ranging in severity from relatively mild (increased incidence of …

Skeletal muscle weakness and mitochondrial dysfunction in the osteogenesis imperfecta murine (oim) model
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), also commonly referred to as brittle bone disease, is a heritable connective tissue disorder occurring in roughly 1:15,000 births. OI arises as a result of mutations in the type I collagen genes, COL1A1 and COL1A2, approximately 85 % of the time with the remaining 15 % …

ALTERED HEMODYNAMIC, NEUROHUMORAL, AND BRAIN METABOLITE PROFILES IN CHILDREN WITH ORTHOSTATIC INTOLERANCE AND CHRONIC NAUSEA
Orthostatic Intolerance (OI) is a type of autonomic dysfunction affecting >500,000 adults and children in the United States. Upon standing, subjects with OI have impaired blood pressure (BP) regulation that leads to debilitating symptoms of dizziness, fatigue, nausea, and fainting. The development …

A Comparison of Post-Injury Symptomatology and Recovery Following Concussion Versus Orthopedic Injury
… research has utilized orthopedic injury (OI) comparison groups to examine outcomes specific to concussion versus physical injury in general, due to the suggestion that preexisting, comorbid, and other injury-related factors influence post-concussion symptom reporting and recovery. The …
