Quality Remediation Programs Lead to Successful Learning
(December 2)Background: The mission of nursing programs is to prepare as many students as possible to pass the first-time attempt on the National Council Licensure Examination-RN (NCLEX-RN®). If a school’s first-time pass rate drops ... -
Quantification and Molecular Characterization of Anti-citrulline Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis
(August 201)Autoimmune diseases are believed to result from the inability of the immune system to distinguish self and non-self. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease that leads to joint destruction and affects ... -
Quantification of Age-Related and per Diopter Accommodative Changes of the Lens and Ciliary Muscle in the Emmetropic Human Eye
(Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 2013-02)Purpose: To calculate age-related and per diopter (D) accommodative changes in crystalline lens and ciliary muscle dimensions in vivo in a single cohort of emmetropic human adults ages 30 to 50 years. Methods: The right ... -
Quantifying morphological heterogeneity: a study of more than 1 000 000 individual stored red blood cells
(Vox Sanguinis, 10/1/2016)Background and Objectives The morphology of red blood cells (RBCs) deteriorates progressively during hypothermic storage. The degree of deterioration varies between individual cells, resulting in a highly heterogeneous ... -
Quantifying T cell Mediated Killing for Melanoma Immunotherapy
(2014-12)Adoptive cell therapy (ACT), based on the adoptive transfer of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) has well-recognized advantages such as (1) high specificity for target cells; (2) the ability to target even micrometastases; ... -
