Investigation of the effects of body type on accelerometer based fall detection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Precision or personalized medicine follows the idea that analyzing a patient's genome can help stratify patients into treatment groups. Patients with cancer, for example, are split into groups based on the genetic make-up, rather than the location...

Development and validation of standardized sampling protocols for assessing freshwater mussel populations in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
.45 (Std. Err. = 0.05) across species, and varied greatly among taxa and the 3 rivers included in this study, and was influenced by temperature, discharge, and, to a lesser extent, by other factors. Correspondence of TVS and transects with excavation varied...
Evaluating the suitability of the human toenail as a biomonitor for manganese status: the one source cohort
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Numerous studies have demonstrated that the human toenail is a reliable biomonitor for the intake of Se and other elements. The objective of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that Mn intake is reflected in toenail Mn levels. Interest...
Impacts of Precipitation, Land use Land cover and Soil type on the Water Balance of Lake Chad Basin
(2013)
Lake Chad Basin (LCB) has experienced drastic changes in land cover and poor water management practices during the last 50 years. The successive droughts in the 1970s and 1980s resulted in a decrease in surface water and groundwater resources...
