Exercise tolerance and skeletal muscle structure and function in patients with severe chronic heart failure by Derman, Kirsten Louise

“…These data support the hypothesis that: i) severe SM structural and functional abnormalities may limit exercise capacity in patients with CHF; ii) the severity of SM pathology but not resting systolic cardiac function, predicts exercise performance in patients with CHF.…”

The effects of prenatal and early-postnatal ethanol exposure on rat brain neurochemistry and behaviour by Swart, Patricia Cathryn

“…Further, the results presented in this thesis highlight thebenefits of performing neurochemical analyses on rats that have not been subjected to prior stressors other than the model being investigated and further, to separately analyze functionally distinct brain regions. Both studies demonstrate long-term ethanol-induced changes in PERK1/ 2 signalling and proteins related to energy metabolism and redox regulation in the PFC and DH. …”
