Hill, Seth (2012-12-06)
Background: Given that lower pill burdens have been shown to be associated with an increased duration of initial therapy, there is a need to understand the effect of daily pill burden on the duration of the initial ...

The Effect of Demographic Variables on Therapy Alliance in Couple Therapy Controlling for Relationship Adjustment and Symptom Distress 

Walker, Catherine (2008-08-15)
Therapy alliance is a central concern in couple therapy as alliance has been consistently shown to predict therapy outcome. However, little is known about the factors that affect alliance formation. The purpose of this ...

The Effect of Depressotypic Attributions on Marital Satisfaction as Mediated by Spousal Support and Moderated by Length of Marriage in Mothers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders 

Efstration, Katherine (2009-08-28)
Mothers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) face unique stressors in caring for their child(ren) with a disability which often spill over into other areas of their lives, including their marriages. The present ...

The Effect of Diet and the Masou Salmon Delta5-Desaturase Transgene on Delta6-Desaturase and Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase Gene Expression and N-3 Fatty Acid Level in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) 

Cheng, Qi (2013-07-10)
The omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) play important roles in human health. Transgenic technology and diet regulation elevated the omega-3 fatty acid levels in ...

Effect of Diet Complexity and Dietary Fish Peptide Supplementation on Weanling Pigs 

Guo, Jing (2020-07-08)
Young pigs are subjected to various stressors at weaning, and providing a highly palatable and digestible diet is, obviously, important in preventing or alleviating growth check soon after weaning and also optimizing growth ...

Effect of Diet Complexity, Multi-enzyme Complexes, Essential Oils, and Benzoic Acid on Weanling Pigs 

wang, yingfeng (2016-05-05)
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of supplementing a simple corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet with multi-enzyme complexes, essential oils, and benzoic acid on growth performance, serum metabolite profile, ...

Effect of dietary 25-hydroxycholecalciferol supplementation on intestinal inflammation and epithelial integrity of young broiler chickens 

Abascal-Ponciano, Gerardo (2021-11-22)  ETD File Embargoed
Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of broiler chickens is a continuous structure that has direct contact with external substances. It is responsible for nutrient absorption, but its contact with external organisms, including ...

Effect of Dietary Energy, Protein, Lysine, Versatile Enzyme, And Peptides on Commercial Leghorns 

Gunawardana, Priyantha (2009-03-25)
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of increasing dietary lysine on performance, egg composition, egg solids, egg quality, in seven commercial brown egg layer strains, and to determine the nutrient ...

Effect of Dietary Energy, Synthetic Amino Acids, Enzymes, Antibiotics, and Molting Method on Commercial Leghorns
