Model programs for the preparation of middle school science teachers

science instructors

Colburn A.
GSID: ehq39ueGO_8J
A Colburn - Journal of Science Teacher Education, 1993 - Taylor & Francis

Results Several aspects were common among most of the NSF model programs. First, new courses were created or old courses redesigned. Core requirements thus went beyond the …

Regional variation in the management of metastatic gastric cancer in Ontario.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Mahar AL, Coburn NG, Kagedan DJ, Viola R, Johnson AP.
PMID: 27536175
Curr Oncol. 2016 Aug;23(4):250-7. doi: 10.3747/co.23.3123. Epub 2016 Aug 12.

BACKGROUND: Geographic variation in cancer care is common when clear clinical management guidelines do not exist. In the present study, we sought to describe health care resource consumption by patients with metastatic gastric cancer (gc) and to investigate the...

Negative predictive value of preoperative computed tomography in determining pathologic local invasion, nodal disease, and abdominal metastases in gastric cancer.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Kagedan DJ, Frankul F, El-Sedfy A, McGregor C, Elmi M, Zagorski B, Dixon ME, Mahar AL, Vasilevska-Ristovska J, Helyer L, Rowsell C, Swallow CJ, Law CH, Coburn NG.
PMID: 27536178
Curr Oncol. 2016 Aug;23(4):273-9. doi: 10.3747/co.23.3124. Epub 2016 Aug 12.

BACKGROUND: Before undergoing curative-intent resection of gastric adenocarcinoma (ga), most patients undergo abdominal computed tomography (ct) imaging to determine contraindications to resection (local invasion, distant metastases). However, the ability to detect contraindications is variable, and the literature is limited...

Optimizing inter-professional communications in surgery: protocol for a mixed-methods exploratory study.

JMIR research protocols

Hallet J, Wallace D, El-Sedfy A, Hall TN, Ahmed N, Bridge J, Taggar R, Smith AJ, Nathens AB, Coburn NG, Gotlib-Conn L.
PMID: 25745882
JMIR Res Protoc. 2015 Mar 05;4(1):e8. doi: 10.2196/resprot.3623.

BACKGROUND: Effective nurse-physician communication is critical to delivering high quality patient care. Interprofessional communication between surgical nurses and surgeons, often through the use of pagers, is currently characterized by information gaps and interprofessional tensions, both sources of workflow interruption,...

A viewer-centric editor for 3D movies.

IEEE computer graphics and applications

Koppal SJ, Zitnick CL, Cohen M, Sing Bing Kang, Ressler B, Colburn A.
PMID: 24807968
IEEE Comput Graph Appl. 2011 Jan-Feb;31(1):20-35. doi: 10.1109/MCG.2010.37.

A proposed mathematical framework is the basis for a viewer-centric digital editor for 3D movies that's driven by the audience's perception of the scene. The editing tool allows both shot planning and after-the-fact digital manipulation of the perceived scene...

A population-based study of the epidemiology of pancreatic cancer: a brief report.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Raju RS, Coburn N, Liu N, Porter JM, Seung SJ, Cheung MC, Goyert N, Leighl NB, Hoch JS, Trudeau ME, Evans WK, Dainty KN, Earle CC, Mittmann N.
PMID: 26715886
Curr Oncol. 2015 Dec;22(6):e478-84. doi: 10.3747/co.22.2653.

OBJECTIVE: Administrative data are used to describe the pancreatic cancer (pcc) population. The analysis examines demographic details, incidence, site, survival, and factors influencing mortality in a cohort of individuals diagnosed with pcc.METHODS: Incident cases of pcc diagnosed in Ontario...

Poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) production in oilseed leukoplasts of brassica napus.

Planta

Houmiel KL, Slater S, Broyles D, Casagrande L, Colburn S, Gonzalez K, Mitsky TA, Reiser SE, Shah D, Taylor NB, Tran M, Valentin HE, Gruys KJ.
PMID: 10550638
Planta. 1999 Oct;209(4):547-50. doi: 10.1007/s004250050760.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) comprise a class of biodegradable polymers which offer an environmentally sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastics. Production of PHAs in plants is attractive since current fermentation technology is prohibitively expensive. The PHA homopolymer poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) has previously been...

Neoadjuvant Androgen Ablation Combined with External-Beam Radiation Therapy and Permanent Interstitial Brachytherapy Boost in Localized Prostate Cancer.

Molecular urology

Sylvester J, Blasko JC, Grimm PD, Meier R, Goy B, Colburn G, Cavanagh W.
PMID: 10851328
Mol Urol. 1999;3(3):231-236.

Androgen ablation therapy has been combined with permanent interstitial brachytherapy in order to downsize the gland prior to seed implantation. It also has been employed in an attempt to improve the effectiveness of therapy in patients with a poor...

The Role of Cyclooxygenase-2 in Inflammation.

American journal of therapeutics

Masferrer JL, Zweifel BS, Colburn SM, Ornberg RL, Salvemini D, Isakson P, Seibert K.
PMID: 11854834
Am J Ther. 1995 Sep;2(9):607-610. doi: 10.1097/00045391-199509000-00005.

Prostaglandins (PGs) can be synthetized via two isoforms of cyclooxygenase (COX). COX-1 is constitutively expressed in normal tissues, and its activity represent the normal physiological output of PGs. In inflammatory states, the newly discovered COX-2 is rapidly induced, and...
