The Effect of breastfeeding on the neonatal abstinence scores of infants born to mothers on a methadone maintenance program : an epidemiological study
(2010)The objective of this research study is to determine the effects that breastfeeding has on methadone exposed infants with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), born at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre. Methadone ... -
Effect of carbon-starvation on the survival of and PNP degradation by a Moraxella strain
(2004)The effect of carbon-starvation on the stress resistance responses of a p-nitrophenol degrading Moraxella strain was examined in both, buffer and river water samples. The Moraxella strain showed optimal stress resistance ... -
Effect of carbonation on leachability and compressive strength of cement-solidified and geopolymer-solidified synthetic metal wastes
(2012-11-10)Stabilization/solidification (s/s) is a well-established technique for treating a variety of metal-containing hazardous waste streams prior to land disposal. Solidification refers to the improvement of the physical ... -
Effect of chromium supplementation on blood glucose control in individuals with type 2 diabetes
(2003)The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of chromium supplementation on the blood glucose control of individuals with type 2 diabetes. A positive finding would result in substantial health and financial ... -
The effect of climate change on mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) in Western Canada
(2021)The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae, (MPB) is the largest forest disturbance factor throughout its range in North America. The most recent MPB outbreak began in the 1990s and has resulted in an approximate ... -
The effect of cottage development on aquatic macroinvertebrate communities and water quality in central Ontario lakes
(2023)In Canada, over 3 million freshwater lakes provide a wide range of ecological, financial, aesthetic, and public health services for their citizens, communities, and tourists. This is especially true for regions like ... -
The effect of cycling female estradiol levels on retinal-based smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEM) and post-target offset persistence
(2015-06-15)Estradiol has primarily been associated with the female reproductive system; however, estradiol receptors have been located in the retinas of male and female humans, as well as throughout the central nervous system (CNS) ... -
The effect of ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma longicaudum on drought stress of Pinus banksiana seedlings
(2023)This study looks at the influence of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma longicaudum to form associations and impact growth of jack pine seedlings under simulated drought conditions. Four treatment groups of jack pine ... -
The effect of facial protection, impact location, and neckform stiffness on peak linear acceleration, risk of injury, and energy loading measures of horizontal impacts on a hockey helmet
(2018)Helmets were originally designed and implemented to protect players from skull fractures and traumatic brain injuries by minimizing linear impact accelerations. The sport of hockey, however, has evolved, and now includes ... -
Effect of feedback and motivational orientations on intrinsic motivations
(1998)The purpose of the study was to investigate how dispositional motivational orientations effect the perception of external rewards and the resulting effect on intrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation was assessed with ... -
Effect of gender on violent and non-violent recidivism : a meta-analysis
(2005)A large body of literature has been dedicated to understanding re-offending after release from prison - a phenomenon known as recidivism. Such research is critical both to understanding the determinants of crime and ... -
Effect of glycerine and water emulsion of diesel-biodiesel blends on engine performance and emissions with EGR
(2018)The globally rising temperatures and its impact on our ecosystem and earth’s natural processes have raised an environmental concern worldwide. The pollution caused due to the burning of fossil fuels has resulted in climate ... -
Effect of group goals on group performance
(1998)The purpose o f the present study was to investigate the effect o f group goal difficulty and group goal commitment on group performance. In addition, it was also to investigate two mediating processes, effort and ... -
Effect of gustatory stimulation on endurance performance
(1997)The purpose of this study was to determine whether the ingestion of an energy-free aspartame beverage (ASP) (99 mg aspartame/L) would influence endurance performance relative to a water (WAT) trial. Nine trained male ... -
Effect of harvest intensity on soil carbon and nutrients across global forests: a meta-analysis
(2018)Logging residues can retain important nutrients for tree growth after biomass harvesting. However, increasing the harvest intensity may decrease soil nutrient stores stocks and affect biomass productivity. Using 2207 ... -
Effect of harvesting methods on the phytosociology of a boreal mixedwood forest community
(1994)A naturally regenerating boreal mixedwood site was remeasured 37 years after four harvest treatments; clearcutting (CC), deferred 'softwoods only' cutting (DC), 'softwoods only' cutting (SC), and hardwoods poisoned, ... -
The effect of isometric cervical strength, head impact location, and impact mechanism on simulated head impact measures in female ice hockey players
(2018)Head injuries in sport have become a growing concern due to the negative acute and chronic health effects manifested from concussion injuries. Ice hockey is a sport associated with a high rate of concussions, although most ... -
