Authors: Rusli Bryant Agustino , Prihadi Johannes Cansius , Rensa  , Laurentius Aswin Pramono  
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT
Objective: The purpose of this study is to find the relation between overweight and obesity with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia in pre-elderly. Material & Methods: This analytical study was conducted in a cross sectional manner to 113 respondents. LUTS assessment uses the International Prostate Symptoms Score questionnaire. Measurements for overweight and obesity, this study uses the BMI and waist circumference methods. Fisher's exact test with SPSS v.25 was used for data analysis. Results: Results from data analysis showed that there was no significant relationship between overweight and obesity based on the BMI method on LUTS, p = 0.122. The results also showed a significant relationship between central obesity and LUTS, p = 0.003. Conclusion: Central obesity can be identified as a risk factor for LUTS while overweight and obesity based on the BMI method cannot be considered as a risk factor. These results can be used as education for pre-elderly to reduce the risk of LUTS due to BPH.
Keywords: Overweight, obesity, lower urinary tract symptoms, benign prostatic hyperplasia, pre-elderly.

Struttin' Through The Industry : A Cultural Perspective On Missy Elliott, Hip-Hop And Beauty Politics
Authors: Ramkeesoon Christine 
Published: September 2023

<p>For three decades, hip-hop artist Missy Elliott has served as a household name to rap and hip-hop enthusiasts around the world. What is often overlooked when discussing Elliott however, is her contribution to the fashioning of the Black woman's body in both hip-hop culture, and the fashion industry of the past and present. Through the analysis of her impact on both the hip-hop music and fashion industries, I will explore how this has contributed to her success as not only a rapper, but as an icon. By way of exploring themes such as the racialization of weight gain for African American women, the fashioning of African Americans throughout historical periods like the Harlem Renaissance, and the beauty politics for women of colour, I aim to not only shape Missy Elliott‘s celebrity, but to analyze her politics of resistance. </p>

Food Safety and Diversity: Knowledge Transfer/Translation and Chinese Newcomers in Toronto
Authors: Koc Mustafa , Liu Lichun Willa , Guclu-Ustundag Ozlem 
Published: September 2023

<p>Canada with its growing immigrant population (19.8 % of the total population born outside of Canada in 2006) is home to over 200 ethnic communities. This cultural, ethnic and linguistic diversity, while enriching the Canadian society, presents a significant challenge to public health organizations, in determining the diverse needs of these communities, breaking linguistic barriers and ensuring newcomers’ access to information and public services. </p>
<p>To ensure the safety of traditional foods and facilitate safe food handling, the educational and information needs of community members as well as the service providers themselves (public health nurses and inspectors, community workers and immigrant settlement workers) need to be addressed. However there are wide knowledge gaps in the area of traditional foods and food safety as identified by a background report prepared by the Public Health Agency of Canada - this includes information on traditional foods, food handling and preparation practices, educational needs of public health officials and newcomers. Partnerships between communities, food safety professionals, practitioners and academics can create mutual learning opportunities and facilitate exchange of knowledge and experience to bridge these gaps resulting in an increased understanding of traditional foods and food handling practices. </p>
<p>Immigrants from China represent one of the largest groups of recent arrivals to Canada. This project provides a community perspective concerning food safety as expressed by recent Chinese immigrants, and how this knowledge can be transferred to local health officials. </p>
<p>This study explores the food safety practices among the recent Chinese immigrants in the Greater Toronto Area, and the educational and informational needs as well as the knowledge gaps between the recent Chinese immigrants and their health service providers (public health officials/inspectors, community workers and health educators). By using mixed research methods of collecting data through a small-scale survey, focus group, and individual interviews, this study provides insights on food safety as expressed by recent Chinese immigrants, one of the largest immigrant groups to Canada in the past decade, and by the local health officials and community workers in order to find more effective ways to facilitate knowledge exchange/transfer among and between the two groups. </p>

Lysosomal pH Gradient is Required for Lysosomal Tubulation in Macrophage Cells
Authors: Anwar Shiraz 
Published: September 2023

<p>The cells of innate immune system utilize the acidic and hydrolytic lysosome to eliminate invading pathogens through degradation, antigen presentation, and overall immune activation. Activated immune cells change their lysosomes from punctae-shaped structures to form long tubules throughout the cell. Lysosomal remodelling and adaptation have been correlated with increased antigen presentation and T cell activation, but the exact mechanism for this change is yet to be elucidated. Here, we aimed to understand the role of lysosomal pH gradient in the process of lysosomal tubulation. We show that NH4Cl and CQ mediated lysosomal alkalinization decreases lysosomal tubules. We also show marked decrease in lysosomal motility and microtubule structure upon NH4Cl and CQ treatment. This implied that lysosomal pH may be impacting lysosomal tubulation by way of motor proteins or microtubule tracks. Future work is required to understand the role of pH in this immune-relevant process and expand our collective knowledge. </p>
Understanding the Regulation of TFEB and Rab7 and Their Contributions to Lysosomal Adaptation
Authors: Alves Patris 
Published: September 2023

<p>Lysosomes can adapt their activity and biogenesis through alterations in genetic expression of lysosomal genes by transcription factor EB (TFEB), and potentially by modifying membrane trafficking through increased activation and recruitment of Rab7 to lysosomes. This research investigated how TFEB is differentially modified and what the relationship between Rab7 and mTOR inhibition is within the context of membrane trafficking. </p>
<p>Mass spectrometry revealed 6 novel phosphorylated sites on TFEB: S108, S113, T329, T330, S331 and S465. S108 and S113 showed evidence of mTOR mediated phosphorylation, while phosphorylation on S465 is hypothesized to be mTOR-independent. All phosphorylated sites are hypothesized to result in cytoplasmic retention and TFEB inactivation. Additionally, mTOR inhibition resulted in increased lysosomal-bound Rab7 and subsequent increase in cargo trafficking and degradation. Delineating TFEB activation patterns and understanding the mechanistic pathway of Rab7 activation along with its downstream effects may help improve our understanding of key regulators of lysosomal adaptation. </p>
Synthesis of a Novel Symmetrical Photocleavable Group for the Efficient Capture and Release of Cysteine Sulfenic Acids on Oxidized Proteins From Streptavidin Beads
Authors: Satkunarajah Thershan 
Published: September 2023

<p>Cysteine sulfenic acids are thought to be key intermediates in protein oxidation but are difficult to study due to their high reactivity and transient nature. The beneficial properties of these oxidative events have been underexplored due to earlier studies primarily focusing on cell damage and death; however, increasing evidence suggests various physiological processes rely on these oxidative modifications. Previous work has shown that bicyclo[6.1.0]non-4-ynes (BCNs) can label sulfenic acids with high reaction kinetics via a pericyclic reaction, while also enabling copper-free click chemistry, allowing for a biotin-azide tag to be installed. However, due to the strong biotin- streptavidin interaction, these probes suffer from poor protein recovery and sub-optimal performance during mass-spectrometric analysis, respectively. Efforts towards incorporating the BCNs into a novel symmetrical photocleavable group based on 1,4-naphthoquinone, or their use in combination with photocleavable biotin-azide are proposed to improve upon these limitations and are presented in this thesis. </p>
Analysis of the World’s Largest Eco-Funds: How Sustainable are Eco-Funds and are Their Choice of Holdings Influenced by Effects Other than the Level of Environmental Sustainability?
Authors: Malinsky Matthew 
Published: September 2023

<p>The demand for the popular green investment vehicle known as the eco-fund is growing rapidly. However, the literature on the topic is limited, often focusing solely on financial performance. This thesis seeks to address gaps in the research by incorporating environmental performance measures into a quantitative analysis. Twenty of the largest eco-funds publicly traded in 2019 are disaggregated and the holdings are analyzed on financial and sustainability performance dimensions. A novel method is proposed for measuring fund performance through a sustainability weighted adjusted ranking, utilizing CSRHub’s 3rd party sustainability rating system. These rankings provide green investors with a useful tool during the investment decision making process. The results of this research indicate that investments in these funds may not support environmental sustainability to the degree investors expect and that fund manager motivation, fund jurisdiction, data availability and industry sector have an effect on the choice of investments. </p>
A Study of Urban Rankings as it Pertains to Facets of Environmental Sustainability
Authors: Recagno Damon 
Published: September 2023

<p>A concern has arisen about the numerous rankings of sustainable, green and smart cities in various publications. Different publications are producing vastly different results. If a consistent and legitimate set of measures were being adopted by various researchers, there would be commonality among the rankings. However, this does not seem to be the situation. As such, this thesis explores the credibility of the published rankings of cities as to whether they are sustainable, green, or smart. To help meet this goal, this study explores how the rankings vary, what criteria are used, and how such rankings can be improved. In addition, a survey was conducted of experts in the field to help better construct ways of ranking cities, based on them being sustainable, green or smart. </p>
<p>The findings show that the majority of the rankings of sustainable, green and smart cities are diverse and employ questionable techniques. Sources that publish such rankings seemingly compile random lists of cities with no research having taken place. The survey helped establish additional criteria by which to rank cities so as to create more consistent results. </p>
Smart Growth and the Future of Commercial Space in the Greater Golden Horseshoe Area
Authors: Daniel Christopher 
Published: September 2023

<p>For a decade and a half, the Greater Golden Horseshoe Area (GGHA) in Ontario, Canada has been undergoing dramatic changes due to provincial smart growth legislation that encouraged high density mixed-use development. For developers of commercial real-estate this has been problematic since commercial mixed-use is not as well understood in comparison with single use commercial properties that have well defined categories and subcategories. Many in the industry have also called into question the wisdom of adding large amounts of new commercial space in mixed-use developments at a time when E-commerce is growing rapidly and contributing to uncertainty about what commercial space demand will look like in the future. </p>
<p>Analysis of a property assessment database of 992 commercial mixed-use properties across the GGHA using k-means cluster analysis reveals that commercial mixed-use properties can be divided into 12 distinct clusters or categories. A Delphi survey conducted in 2018 with a panel of 22 experts from various commercial real estate and urban planning backgrounds showed that while E-commerce in nine commercial NAICS categories was expected to grow an average of 137% over the next twenty years, the effect on demand for per capita commercial space was only forecasted to decline by 16% over the same time period. When the per capita commercial space forecast was applied to 20-year population forecasts, this showed that a very moderate amount of new commercial space would be required in the GGHA by 2041. These findings are discussed in the context of both policy guidance implications as well as the COVID-19 pandemic that has raised additional questions about the growth of E-commerce and raises new areas for future research as well as a need for continued research on the topics investigated here. </p>
