Abstract:

Old-age hippocampal sclerosis (HS), characterised by severe neuron loss in hippocampal CA1, is a poorly understood cause of dementia. At present no objective pathological HS criteria exist. In life HS is commonly diagnosed as Alzheimer's disease. HS aetiology is unclear, although it has been associated with both ischaemia and TAR-DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43)-related neurodegeneration. Variations in genes GRN, TMEM106B and ABCC9 are proposed as HS risk factors. The aim of this thesis was to investigate epidemiological, clinical, pathological and genetic characteristics of HS in older Europea

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of (a) respondent age, (b) age and gender of perpetrator and victim, and (c) history of experienced violence on perceptions of elder abuse. Two-hundred and one (N = 201) middle-aged adults and 422 college students were assessed. Measures included adaptations of the Severity of Violence Against Women Scale and Elder Abuse Attitudes and Behavioral Intentions Scale-Revised. Middle-aged respondents viewed psychological behaviors more harshly than young. Middle-aged females and young males were less tolerant of middle-aged perpetrators. While past

Abstract:

This study compares financially optimal uneven-aged and even-aged silvicultural regimes of loblolly pine (Pinus Taeda). Uneven-aged regimes which maximize net present value (NPV) are found by quantifying the effects of diameter distribution (Q factor), maximum diameter, cutting cycle, and residual basal area on NPV. For the benchmark inputs, the regime yielding the highest NPV had a maximum diameter of 12 inches, residual basal area of 45 ft2/acre, and a cutting cycle of 11 years. Financially optimal even-aged regimes are taken from published literature of even-aged

Abstract:

Major segments of the Marlborough Lines Ltd (MLL) 11kV electricity distribution network are positioned within remote areas of the Marlborough region including the Marlborough Sounds, the Awatere and Wairau Valleys and the North Eastern cost of the South Island. The majority of these remote rural lines are due for replacement within the coming 20 years in order to maintain safety and reliability. The increased maintenance costs of operating rural electricity lines and the number of customers they serve often results in the line being uneconomic to operate.

The creep behaviour of welds in service-aged pipes are studied. The aims of the research have been achieved using analytical, numerical and experimental approaches to the relevant subjects. Several features of the work are presented: (i) a systematic parametric study of the creep of two-material test specimens including a stress singularity analysis, (ii) an impression creep testing method using a rectangular indenter, which can be applied to study the creep properties in welds, and (iii) methods used for damage constitutive equation generation involving FE-damage modelling of the rupture test

Abstract:

The establishment of intermediate care facilities in British Columbia, as well as the establishment of similar facilities throughout the rest of Canada, was and still is a well-intentioned approach to meet the long term care needs of the elderly. The practices and procedures adopted by long term care facilities, however, tend to inhibit the personal autonomy of residents (Thomasma, 1985). Specifically, a facility's practices and procedures tend to inhibit residents' latitude of choice regarding daily living activities. Residents' latitude of choice may also be lessened when nurses implement we

Abstract:

The average life expectancy of humans increased significantly, in considerable part as a result of advances in the medical field. As normal aging is accompanied by cognitive changes that can impair normal functioning, the management of elders with cognitive impairments becomes an emerging priority. Using young and aged rats that were behaviorally tested to assess their cognitive status, we aimed at understanding the neural substrates behind age-associated cognitive impairments. To characterize morphologically the changes in cortical circuits, we used a combination of intracellular filling of c

Abstract:

Although aging is often believed to be linked to cognitive decline, some elderly humans maintain cognitive function that is comparable to young adults (Rowe, J. W. & Kahn, R. L., 1987).

Set within the context that the world’s population is ageing at an unprecedented rate, it is argued that care of the elderly, and their everyday lived experiences are poised to become prominent concerns. In the shadow of this, the ageing population poses a myriad of challenges not only for the elderly but also for policy makers who put in place systems for the provision of services within residential care homes. By virtue, given that communities of elderly consumers voices are often muted within many academic analyses of social policy and service provision this study illuminates and distils co

Abstract:

The usage of lead-free solder joints in electronic packaging is of greatest concern to the electronic industry due to the health and environmental hazards arising with the use of lead. As a consequence, lead is legally prohibited in the European Union and the industry is aiming to produce lead-free products. The reliability of solder joints is an important issue as the failure could destroy the whole function of a product. SnAgCu is a commonly used alloy for lead-free solders. Compared to solders containing lead, tin-rich solders react more rapidly with the copper substrate. The

In northern hardwood-conifer forests, alternatives to conventional forest management practices are being developed in order to maintain biodiversity and ecosystem functioning while providing for timber revenue generation. The understory layer of vegetation encompasses the majority of plant species diversity in forested ecosystems and may be sensitive to timber harvest disturbance. Thus, monitoring the response of forest understories to new silvicultural techniques may provide a means for evaluating their intensity.
