Neurochemical, epigenetic, and structural brain changes associated with prenatal stress exposure, and the mitigating effects of DHA
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)[EMBARGOED UNTIL 5/1/2024] The Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis posits that in utero stress exposure can modify developmental trajectories, influencing adult health. Research indicates that ... -
Investigating the long-term effects of non-inertial low-intensity blast-induced mild traumatic brain injury in mice
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)[EMBARGOED UNTIL 5/1/2024] In military contexts, mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is reported more than moderate or severe TBI and is frequently caused by low-intensity blast (LIB) exposure. Affected service members and ... -
A case-control based genomic analysis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a respiratory illness that affects a large number of people all over the world. It is a major cause of chronic morbidity and mortality and a serious global public health problem. ... -
A study to reduce the number of preventable emergency visits at community level
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)Introduction: Emergency Department overcrowding is a worldwide issue. The impact of increased unnecessary and preventable emergency visits in hospitals leads to reduced quality of care, inability to care for critically ill ... -
Design and implementation of serverless architecture for i2b2 on AWS cloud and Snowflake data warehouse
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Beside (i2b2) is an open-source medical tool for cohort discovery that allows researchers to explore and query clinical data. The i2b2 platform is designed to adopt any patient-centric ... -
Explainable artificial intelligence to stratify pan-cancer patients for immune checkpoint inhibitor decision making
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2023] Immune checkpoints are a normal part of the immune system. It engages when proteins on the surface of immune cells called T cells recognize and bind to partner proteins on other cells, such as ... -
Accelerating data-driven discover in type 1 diabetes: an informatics-based approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2023] Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a lifelong chronic disease characterized by the absolute or near-absolute loss of insulin. For affected individuals, management of T1D is an unremitting challenge that ... -
Interactions between light and carbon dioxide availabilities as a control of algal species succession
(1974)In attempting to gain knowledge of or insight into the requirements of algal production and the rate of algal production investigators turned to both field studies of natural water and laboratory studies. From these studies ... -
Characterization and dewaterability of water treatment plant residues
(1974)A variety of water treatment residues were characterized in order to determine the influence of specific chemical constituents, process flow schemes and raw water quality on the performance of sludge dewatering processes. ... -
Information dissemination in the water resources field
(1976)A study of mercury accumulation in trout taken from the trout parks and streams of southern Missouri is presented. Mercury in trout is determined by digestion in nitric acid, sulfurid acid, and potassium permanganate, ... -
Integrating the effects of the Great Flood of 1993: changes in groundwater hydrology and quality in relation to changes in surface waters
(1994)The Great Flood of 1993 had far-reaching impacts upon surface waters in the State of Missouri. Many stations along the Missouri River were above flood stage for months during the summer of 1993. Researchers conducted ... -
Analysis of social, fiscal, and structural factors affecting integrated pest management programs in Missouri and implications for future programs to protect water quality
(1996)Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has experienced a resurgence of interest due in part to continuing reports of drinking water contamination by agricultural pesticides. In response to the decertification of certain pesticides ... -
Costs and benefits of wetland restoration of hydric cropland in Missouri: a preliminary assessment
(1991)This report presents a preliminary analysis of the benefits and costs of restoring hydric cropland sites to wetlands in Missouri. Potential social and private (landowner) benefits and costs were estimated for 25 sites in ... -
Heavy metal concentrations in drainage sediments possibly affected by landfill leachate
(1996)Leachate was observed outside the confines of the Stone County Landfill, Missouri. Ants Creek and South Ants Creek located in the vicinity of the landfill may have received leachate. Both streams drain into Table Rock Lake. ... -
Water chemistry and algae biomass in Missouri reservoirs during summer 1991
(1991)Beginning in 1989 the University of Missouri undertook a study of trophic state in reservoirs located throughout the state. This project was funded by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources in 1989-1990 and by the ... -
Effect of subsurface structure and bypass water flow on copper and zinc movement
(1994)The potential movement of heavy metals beyond the soil application zone is a cause for public concern. Structural features of the argillic horizon in soils such as the Tuskeego (fine mesic montomorillonitic, mesic Mollie ... -
Role of runoff and interflow in chemical transport for claypan soils
(1996)No-tillage systems have been found to increase water runoff for some soils. This is a major concern because this increased runoff has the potential for increasing the runoff of dissolved herbicides in the spring since these ... -
Enhancement of nitrification in submerged flow constructed wetlands
(1992)Four laboratory-scale, submerged flow constructed wetland (SFCW) mesocosms (Juncus effesus) were used to evaluate methods of increasing oxygenation within the wetlands to enhance nitrogen removal from applied wastewaters. ... -
Effect of phytase on phytate P utilization by turkeys
(1992)An in vitro method was developed for poultry to predict inorganic phosphorus release from maize-soya bean feeds containing supplemental phytase (E.C. 3.1.3.8), and to quantify the effect of acid phosphatase (E.C. 3.1,3.2.), ... -
