The association between cardiorespiratory fitness and abdominal adiposity in postmenopausal, physically inactive South Asian women.

Preventive medicine reports

Lesser IA, Dick TJ, Guenette JA, Hoogbruin A, Mackey DC, Singer J, Lear SA.
PMID: 26844150
Prev Med Rep. 2015 Sep 21;2:783-7. doi: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2015.09.007. eCollection 2015.

In South Asians, a unique obesity phenotype of high abdominal fat is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Low cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with abdominal fat and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this paper is...

Novel Large Sulfur Bacteria in the Metagenomes of Groundwater-Fed Chemosynthetic Microbial Mats in the Lake Huron Basin.

Frontiers in microbiology

Sharrar AM, Flood BE, Bailey JV, Jones DS, Biddanda BA, Ruberg SA, Marcus DN, Dick GJ.

Front Microbiol. 2017 May 08;8:791. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2017.00791. eCollection 2017.

Little is known about large sulfur bacteria (LSB) that inhabit sulfidic groundwater seeps in large lakes. To examine how geochemically relevant microbial metabolisms are partitioned among community members, we conducted metagenomic analysis of a chemosynthetic microbial mat in the...

Exercise training is an effective alternative to estrogen supplementation for improving glucose homeostasis in ovariectomized rats.

Physiological reports

MacDonald TL, Ritchie KL, Davies S, Hamilton MJ, Cervone DT, Dyck DJ.
PMID: 26603453
Physiol Rep. 2015 Nov;3(11). doi: 10.14814/phy2.12617. Epub 2015 Nov 24.

The irreversible loss of estrogen (specifically 17-β-estradiol; E2) compromises whole-body glucose tolerance in women. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is frequently prescribed to treat estrogen deficiency, but has several deleterious side effects. Exercise has been proposed as an HRT substitute,...

Are Oligotypes Meaningful Ecological and Phylogenetic Units? A Case Study of .

Frontiers in microbiology

Berry MA, White JD, Davis TW, Jain S, Johengen TH, Dick GJ, Sarnelle O, Denef VJ.

Front Microbiol. 2017 Mar 08;8:365. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2017.00365. eCollection 2017.

Oligotyping is a computational method used to increase the resolution of marker gene microbiome studies. Although oligotyping can distinguish highly similar sequence variants, the resulting units are not necessarily phylogenetically and ecologically informative due to limitations of the selected...

Dystonia Associated with Idiopathic Slow Orthostatic Tremor.

Tremor and other hyperkinetic movements (New York, N.Y.)

Tremor Other Hyperkinet Mov (N Y). 2016 Feb 01;5:351. doi: 10.7916/D8RF5TP4. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to characterize the clinical and electrophysiological features of patients with slow orthostatic tremor.CASE REPORT: The clinical and neurophysiological data of patients referred for lower limb tremor on standing were reviewed. Patients with symptomatic or primary orthostatic...

Coupled major and trace elements as indicators of the extent of melting in mid-ocean-ridge peridotites.

Nature

Hellebrand E, Snow JE, Dick HJ, Hofmann AW.
PMID: 11287951
Nature. 2001 Apr 05;410(6829):677-81. doi: 10.1038/35070546.

Rocks in the Earth's uppermost sub-oceanic mantle, known as abyssal peridotites, have lost variable but generally large amounts of basaltic melt, which subsequently forms the oceanic crust. This process preferentially removes from the peridotite some major constituents such as...

Mineralogy of the mid-ocean-ridge basalt source from neodymium isotopic composition of abyssal peridotites.

Nature

Salters VJ, Dick HJ.
PMID: 12097907
Nature. 2002 Jul 04;418(6893):68-72. doi: 10.1038/nature00798.

Inferring the melting process at mid-ocean ridges, and the physical conditions under which melting takes place, usually relies on the assumption of compositional similarity between all mid-ocean-ridge basalt sources. Models of mantle melting therefore tend to be restricted to...

Magmatic and amagmatic seafloor generation at the ultraslow-spreading Gakkel ridge, Arctic Ocean.

Nature

Michael PJ, Langmuir CH, Dick HJ, Snow JE, Goldstein SL, Graham DW, Lehnert K, Kurras G, Jokat W, Mühe R, Edmonds HN.
PMID: 12827193
Nature. 2003 Jun 26;423(6943):956-61. doi: 10.1038/nature01704.

A high-resolution mapping and sampling study of the Gakkel ridge was accomplished during an international ice-breaker expedition to the high Arctic and North Pole in summer 2001. For this slowest-spreading endmember of the global mid-ocean-ridge system, predictions were that...

An ultraslow-spreading class of ocean ridge.

PMID: 14647373
Nature. 2003 Nov 27;426(6965):405-12. doi: 10.1038/nature02128.

New investigations of the Southwest Indian and Arctic ridges reveal an ultraslow-spreading class of ocean ridge that is characterized by intermittent volcanism and a lack of transform faults. We find that the mantle beneath such ridges is emplaced continuously...

Modulation of stretch reflex excitability during quiet human standing.

Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2004;2004:4684-7. doi: 10.1109/IEMBS.2004.1404297.

Stretch reflex excitability was measured during quiet standing by using a bilateral electro-hydraulic actuator to apply perturbations of angular position to the ankle. Subjects were instructed to stand quietly while pulse displacements were applied at random time intervals. Position,...
