Filtering genetic variants and placing informative priors based on putative biological function
(2016-02-03)Abstract High-density genetic marker data, especially sequence data, imply an immense multiple testing burden. This can be ameliorated by filtering genetic variants, exploiting or accounting for correlations ... -
The final frontier: Early-stage genetic introgression and hybrid habitat use in the northwestern extent of the Golden-winged Warbler breeding range
(2018)Anthropogenic changes to the landscape and climate have resulted in secondary contact between previously allopatric species. This can result in genetic introgression and reverse speciation when closely related species are ... -
Finite difference methods for computing eigenvalues of fourth order boundary value problems
(1986-1-1)This brief report describes some new finite difference methods of order 2 and 4 for computing eigenvalues of a two point boundary value problem associated with a fourth order linear differential equation y(4)+(p(x)−λq(x))y=0. ... -
First Nations and Metis peoples’ access and equity challenges with early childhood oral health: a qualitative study
(2021-06-07)Abstract Background Inequities in early childhood oral health are evident amongst Indigenous peoples and communities in Manitoba, Canada. Early childhood caries (ECC) is decay ... -
Fit-for-purpose curated database application in mass spectrometry-based targeted protein identification and validation
(2014-07-10)Abstract Background Mass spectrometry (MS) is a very sensitive and specific method for protein identification, biomarker discovery, and biomarker validation. Protein identification is commonly ... -

Food allergy education: teen learning preferences
(2014-12-18) -
Food allergy-related concerns during the transition to self-management
(2019-09-05)Abstract Background Compared to non-allergic individuals, food allergic individuals have impaired health-related quality of life (HRQL). However, effects of gender and age are ... -
Food Processing and Maillard Reaction Products: Effect on Human Health and Nutrition
(2015-1-8)Maillard reaction produces flavour and aroma during cooking process; and it is used almost everywhere from the baking industry to our day to day life to make food tasty. It is often called nonenzymatic browning reaction ... -
Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome in an infant triggered by prunes
(BioMed Central (BMC), 2023-04-23)Abstract Background Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a non-IgE mediated food allergy that has a cumulative incidence of 0.015 to 0.7% in infants [1]. ... -
Force–velocity relationship in Paralympic powerlifting: two or multiple-point methods to determine a maximum repetition
(2022-08-24)Abstract Background Due to the absence of evidence in the literature on Paralympic Powerlifting the present study investigated various methods to assess bench press maximum ... -
Fosfomycin: A First-Line Oral Therapy for Acute Uncomplicated Cystitis
(2016-5-10)Fosfomycin is a new agent to Canada approved for the treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis (AUC) in adult women infected with susceptible isolates of E. coli and Enterococcus faecalis. We reviewed the literature regarding ... -
Fourier Transform Microwave Spectroscopic and ab Initio Study of the Rotamers of 2-Fluorobenzaldehyde and 3-Fluorobenzaldehyde
(The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2018-02-06)The rotational spectra of 2-fluorobenzaldehyde (2-FBD) and 3-fluorobenzaldehyde (3-FBD) were recorded using Fourier transform microwave (FTMW) spectroscopy from 4 to 26 GHz. Two planar rotamers were observed for each species ... -
Fractal ventilation enhances respiratory sinus arrhythmia
(2005-05-09)Abstract Background Programming a mechanical ventilator with a biologically variable or fractal breathing pattern (an example of 1/f noise) improves gas exchange and respiratory ... -
Fractional revival of threshold graphs under Laplacian dynamics
(Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020)We consider Laplacian fractional revival between two vertices of a graph $X$. Assume that it occurs at time $\tau$ between vertices 1 and 2. We prove that for the spectral decomposition $L = \sum_{r=0}^q \theta_rE_r$ of ... -
Frailty and physical function in chronic kidney disease: the CanFIT study
(2015-09-05)Abstract Background Frailty, a manifestation of unsuccessful aging, is highly prevalent in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with comorbid conditions ... -
Frailty and pre-frailty in cardiac surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 66,448 patients
(2021-06-25)Abstract Background The burden of frailty on cardiac surgical outcomes is incompletely understood. Here we perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing ... -
Frailty-aware care: giving value to frailty assessment across different healthcare settings
(2022-01-03)Abstract Healthcare systems need to adapt to better serve an aging population with complex presentations. Frailty assessments are a potential means to address this heterogeneity in aging to identify individuals ...
