Abstract:

Postural control during standing and walking is an inherently unstable task requiring the interaction of various biomechanical, sensory, and neurophysiological mechanisms to shape stable patterns of whole-body coordination that are able to counteract postural disequilibrium. This thesis focused on the examination of central aspects of the functional roles of these mechanisms and the modes of interaction between them. A further aim was to determine the conditions of dynamic stability for healthy standing and walking performance as well as for certain balance and gait disorders. By studying m

<p> This study analyzes the relationship between participating in the Food Stamp Program (FSP) and being diagnosed with diabetes. Data for this study was based on participant's response to the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). This study predicted that participation in the FSP would increase the likelihood for participants to develop diabetes type-2. The variables under investigation in this study consisted of participation in the FSP, previously being diagnosed with diabetes, ability to afford and eat balanced meals, socioeconomic status (SES), and consumption rates of soda

Abstract:

Sexual expression is a natural act that occurs across the life course, unrestricted by age or physical location. Regardless if a person is 75 and residing in an assisted living facility, sex is a facet of life. Although sexual activity may slow as individuals age, interest in sex does not (Langer, 2009). Older adults maintain healthy sexual desires, yet face unique challenges when it comes to sexual expression and sexual health, which can be further complicated within the margins of a community living facility (i.e., assisted living, residential care, and nursing homes).

Abstract:

Many believe eating healthfully is too expensive and therefore opt for less expensive, lower quality foods. There are disputes between research groups and government as to whether nutrition policies should be adjusted. Federal programs have made strides in combating food insecurity through nutrition help and education programs, but many question if the amount of skills in food selection and preparation can compensate for limited incomes. Regardless, the low incomes' diets are inadequate to meet nutritional needs and people are suffering the consequences. The purpose of this study was to determ

Abstract:

The activity of descending stairs increases loading at the joints of the lower extremities (Andriacchi et al., 1980) as compared to walking (McFadyen and Winter, 1988), which may cause certain discomfort and or difficulties in completing the task. This study compared and contrasted the kinematics and kinetics of forward and backward stair descent to Winter's level walking (1991). We compared the support moments and moment powers of the lower limb joints while descending stairs and secondly, performed an analysis of the position of the foot on the step (ground reaction forces) to determine whic

This dissertation argues that advocacy is a two-stage decision in which organizations must first decide whether or not to undertake political activity through advocacy or lobbying and then choose between the set of strategic actions that, based on available financial and human resources, are available to them. These are separate decisions with separate constraints. The decision to advocate is a strategic stance taken by nonprofit organizations in policy environments that necessitate such activity and in which it is politically conducive for them to undertake the cost of such actions.

Abstract:

The circumpolar boreal forest is an extensive carbon (C) reservoir, storing an estimated 88 petagrams (Pg) of C in vegetation biomass with an additional 471 PgC residing within the soil itself. In the North American boreal, fire disturbance acts as the main stand-renewing agent along an approximate 100-year return interval. However, recent studies suggest that fire intensity and severity are increasing, driven by disproportionate climate warming of the northern latitudes. In this study, we examine carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapour and energy exchange in a 7-year old, post-burn, jack pine stan

Abstract:

Introduction Continuously rising health care and workplace costs associated with mental illness is demanding attention from health care funders in South Africa’s private health care sector. The majority of mental health care costs are generated by in-hospital care, whilst funded access to ambulatory care is limited in this sector. The Medscheme Mental Health Programme (MMHP) is a collaborative care project which aims to promote the integration of good quality mental health care into the primary care setting. In a “treatment-to-target” approach, symptom score trackers are used to systematical

Abstract:

Background: The NHS Health Check programme is one of the boldest commitments to primary prevention in cardiovascular disease (CVD) internationally. It offers risk assessment and management to the entire 40 to 74 year old population, without existing vascular disease. I aim to assess its early impact in general practice, and examine workload implications. Methods: Modelling the population at high risk of CVD in England; comparing CVD risk prediction using two risk scores, and two methods of data imputation for missing risk factor data; the assessment of CVD risk factor recording before the prog

Abstract:

Doctor of Philosophy<br>Department of Human Nutrition<br>Edgar Chambers IV<br>Because healthy food products do not have a specific tool used for consumer screening based on consumers’ diet or degree of healthy eating habits, this study aimed to determine a set of questions that could classify consumers who belong in a different status according to the Stages of Change model, including those who have a different diet quality based on their Healthy Eating Index (HEI) score. The surveys were conducted in the United States (US) and Thailand in order to determine applicability to varying countries.

Abstract:

Book Summary: This handbook synthesizes and analyzes the growing knowledge base on life course health development (LCHD) from the prenatal period through emerging adulthood, with implications for clinical practice and public health. It presents LCHD as an innovative field with a sound theoretical framework for understanding wellness and disease from a lifespan perspective, replacing previous medical, biopsychosocial, and early genomic models of health. Interdisciplinary chapters discuss major health concerns (diabetes, obesity), important less-studied conditions (hearing, kidney health), and l
