Subjects: subject: Sex trafficking

subject: Climate change and sex trafficking nexus

description: This thesis examines how anti-trafficking service providers of East Baton Rouge Parish and Orleans Parish, Louisiana understand climate change’s role in driving sex trafficking. In exploring their understanding, this project investigates whether climate change is a factor in sex trafficking patterns and whether anti-trafficking service providers see climate change as a factor. I argue that climate change is a factor in sex trafficking patterns as climate change exacerbates vulnerabilities to sex trafficking. By drawing on interviews done with two service providers of East Baton Rouge Parish, four service providers of Orleans Parish, and one with relations in both locales, this project uses narrative theory to draw out the perspectives of service providers on these issues and the reasoning for those perspectives. Including their perspectives will add to the limited knowledge of the climate change and sex trafficking nexus. Through localizing this knowledge, I hope to foster specific policy responses to this phenomenon.

description: Species diversity is hypothesized to decrease with increasing habitat fragmentation and human interaction. Species diversity is measured by calculating the species richness (number of different species) and species evenness (abundance of species) for a specific location. Camera traps (animal triggered devices) were used to detect and identify species. Data was collected over a 71 day period (July 1st and September 10th) on 8 cameras with a total of 568 camera trap days and 918 images of species. Three sites in Fauquier County were selected, based on habitat fragmentation and the presence of human activities. Site 1 is an area of land managed to promote species diversity and has minimal human activities. Site 2 is a conservancy with the fewest number of disturbances, and is hypothesized to have the greatest diversity of species. Site 3 has the most disturbances due to farming on a fragmented landscape. It is hypothesized to have the least diversity of species. Species diversity is calculated using several models, Jaccard’s Index, Whittaker Index, Simpson Index, Shannon-Wiener Index, Relative Abundance Index and True Diversity (Effective Number of Species). Site 2 was calculated to be the most diverse, but Site 1 had the greatest number of species. Site 3, as expected, was the least diverse.

description: The rise of zoonotic diseases, such as COVID-19, highlights the urgent need for an integrated One Health approach that bridges
animal, human, and environmental health. This paper proposes a theoretical framework to examine the role of environmental contaminants, particularly chemical cocktails, in facilitating zoonotic spillover events in mammals. Our conceptual model focuses on the
synergistic effects of chemical pollution and zoonotic pathogens on wildlife and human health, incorporating the following elements:
a representative mix of immunotoxic environmental contaminants like perfluorinated substances (PFAS), diverse mammalian species as potential wildlife reservoir hosts, various zoonotic viruses with different transmission dynamics, and the theoretical impact
of chemical exposure on wildlife immune systems potentially increasing susceptibility to zoonotic pathogens. We hypothesize that
combined stressors, such as chemical exposure and infectious diseases, might drive viral adaptation and enhance zoonotic spillover
potential to humans.

Year: 2021

description: The investigation of regional correlations between knowledge of seasonal patterns and indicators, along with closer examination of the monitoring methods used in traditional management systems can determine traditional knowledge viability and role in monitoring shifting patterns of seasonal variation or atmospheric trends. Furthermore, investigation into what the key elements of traditional knowledge are and how are these related to plant and animal lifecycles and overall ecological seasonal cycles provides detailed information which can provide foundational frameworks that assist in providing some detail to an unspecified map for future adaptation and vigilance through generational knowledge exchange and how these elements are integrated into regional frameworks for policy direction in the face of climate change in the Pacific. In undertaking a multi-faceted approach to this study . One of the primary issues when dealing with traditional knowledge systems is acknowledging the holistic nature of information and the value that this perspective or way of knowing holds in current day Natural Resource Management, climate change adaptation and decision making strategies. Comparing indigenous Australian and Pacific Islander environmental management for practical environmental and cultural resilience returns and benefits. The investigations also attempted to look at the locational range of ecological knowledge and potential similarities in cultural knowledge practices, the examination of the monitoring methods used in environmental observation and the detailing of sustainability, utilisation and application of cultural environmental knowledge as it pertains to knowledge transfer. Seasonal change has a significant role in cultural existence and the means of how people relate and utilise their environment. It is a variable that shows forms of adaptation and resilience that are distinct from western forms of land/sea use and appreciation. The issue of climatic change and seasonal patterns or variations raises questions about Indigenous knowledge and adaptation and gives a voice to the problems and concerns of pacific people, especially in relation to climate change and global population issues. Key research question or hypothesis, This doctorate seeks to advance our understanding of a key issue in resource management in multi-cultural context - what are the most effective strategies for realising the benefits of Indigenous approaches to sustainable resource use in the era of climate change? To fully understand this issue, I aimed to examine the relationship of diverse forms of Indigenous knowledge, to each other and to global western scientific approaches, either in partnered co-management, or distinctively.

description: Materials with nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, especially multi-photon absorption (MPA) properties are of significant interest for applications such as microfabrication, bioimaging, photodynamic therapy, and frequency up-conversion lasing. Studies showed ruthenium alkynyl complexes demonstrated promising potential for MPA properties. In the first part of my PhD work, a series of third-generation ruthenium alkynyl dendrimers and zero-, first and second-generation homologues were synthesised. The size, purity, and structural features of the dendrimers were assessed by a combination of 31P NMR spectroscopy, diffusion-ordered spectroscopy (DOSY), size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), HR-ESI mass spectrometry, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the second part of this work, ruthenium alkynyl octupolar complexes with the electron-deficient heterocycle s-heptazine as the core have been synthesised and characterised. The structure-property relationships of these complexes have been studied.

title: Identification and Functional Characterisation of WYLContaining Proteins in prokaryotic immunity.
Creators: name: Hajizadeh Dastjerdi, Arash
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: The bacterial CRISPR-Cas (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) system operates as an adaptive immune system, equipping bacteria with the ability to defend against invading mobile genetic elements. This dynamic interplay between hosts and pathogens has led to significant divergence within CRISPR systems. Beyond the core CRISPR effector complex, bacteria have acquired CRISPR accessory proteins that serve as intermediaries in both innate and adaptive immunity, offering protection against highly virulent intruders. Among the less-studied accessory proteins are WYL domain-containing proteins. The WYL domain displays structural similarities with the SM-fold observed in eukaryotic systems, and are co-occurring with CRISPR effectors in a defence island, although the interplay between CRISPR proteins and WYL-containing proteins in response to phage attack remain elusive. In the current project, a genomic and metagenomic survey was performed on a 30TB of assemblies, with a specific focus on the WYL-containing proteins in the vicinity of CRISPR effectors. This survey identified novel WYL-fusion proteins that were not reported previously. Among these identified proteins a new undescribed clade of large protein from Ruminoclostridium, namely WYLD co-occur specifically with type VI-D CRISPR effectors, targeting RNA is sought to play an important role in prokaryote immunity. WYLD is characterised by two hypothetical HTH domains situated at the N-terminal region, followed by two RNAinteracting regions containing WYL domains, displaying the typical SM fold architecture. Phage assays revealed that WLD alone or in combination with Cas13d restrict phage infections by inducing bacterial dormancy. Mechanistic characterisation demonstrated that WYLD exhibits a nanomolar affinity for GUrich RNA substrate and forms a stable complex with RNA and DNA. This stable RNA-WYLD complex formation and specificity for GU-rich substrate is mediated by key residues in the WYL domain. Additionally, both Cas13d and WYLD exhibit RNA cleavage activity in a stoichiometry dependant manner. In summary, this thesis extends our understanding of the role of WYL-containing proteins associated in CRISPR adaptive immunity and their protective roles against phage attack and shed new lights on the role of WYL-containing proteins in RNA binding and cleavage.

description: The WA Country Health Service (WACHS) is one of seven Health Service Providers in Western Australia (WA), and is responsible for the delivery of health services in WA's seven country regions. Between March 2022 and December 2023 I undertook a field placement at WACHS to satisfy the requirements of the Master of Philosophy in Applied Epidemiology (MAE) program. This bound volume describes the four projects I completed to address the core competencies of the MAE. To meet the competency to investigate an acute public health problem, I investigated two gastroenteritis outbreaks in the South West region, one following an office Christmas lunch and the other at a residential boarding school. As neither outbreak had a confirmed aetiology, I investigated barriers to stool specimen collection and made recommendations to improve this in future outbreaks. For the data analysis competency, I prepared both annual and quarterly reports for WACHS on notifiable diseases. This included descriptive analyses of notifications by age, sex, Aboriginal status, region, and other variables of interest, and comparison with historical, state and national notifiable disease rates. I made recommendations to improve future editions of these reports, and developed a template to simplify future analyses. For the surveillance system competency, I contributed to the establishment of a system to record and track family and domestic violence-related Emergency Department (ED) presentations across country WA. This included conducting a quantitative analysis to inform the functionality of the system, co-leading a consultation process with ED staff across seven WACHS sites, and liaising with internal stakeholders to ensure that data collected by the system is disseminated appropriately to inform public health action. For the epidemiological study competency, I conducted a three-part mixed-methods study investigating Rheumatic heart disease (RHD)-related mortality in Western Australia between 2012 and 2021. This included a comparative quantitative analysis of age-standardised mortality rates by time period, sex, Aboriginal status and jurisdiction; a descriptive quantitative analysis of clinical and demographic characteristics among deceased persons recorded on the WA RHD Register; and a thematic qualitative analysis of nine in-depth stakeholder interviews. The final chapter in this volume describes my experience teaching epidemiology, including delivering a tutorial on age standardisation to first-year MAE scholars, and delivering a lesson from the field on qualitative interviewing for my MAE peers. The projects described in this bound volume contribute to public health and epidemiological knowledge, particularly in the areas of rural and Aboriginal health. Each project aims to inform public health action to improve the health of these populations.

Developing a deep love of country from his early life on the plateau, he shaped, and was shaped by, significant change and events occurring during his life (c.1926-2009). Bardayal was recognised for his art, deep cultural knowledge, and vision through an Order of Australia in 2004. This biography explores Bardayal's art through the historical and cultural context in which he produced it. I seek to document his legacy and to help overcome the significant paucity of detailed knowledge about the lives and art of individual Aboriginal artists and the trajectory of their careers. The biography is a case study in applying interdisciplinary research methods, including oral history, art history and anthropology to enable the meaningful writing about Aboriginal art that it deserves. The method draws on archival material, interviews, field work and formal examination of Bardayal's life works and those of his contemporaries and ancestors. The thesis traces the interactions between Bardayal's life and art and the evolution of the Aboriginal art market. Colonisation and the nature of the art market had an impact, but he was an active agent who ploughed his own path. Love of country and determination to keep it alive was a critical, but not the only, determinant of the form and content of his paintings. Bardayal was regarded as a 'traditionalist' through his adherence to the rock art style found on his country. However, I argue that Bardayal was very alert to new ideas and astute about how to capitalise on them. His art style and materials were sensitive to various elements of context and evolved over time.

description: Migreen on inimese elu ning selle kvaliteeti vägagi mõjutav haigus. Migreeniga inimeste elukvaliteeti hindavate uuringute võrdluse muudab keeruliseks aga see, et uuringutes on kasutatud väga erinevaid küsimustikke ja skaalasid ning puuduvad piisavad andmed nende tulemuste omavaheliste seoste kohta.
Uuringu eesmärk oli võrdlevalt hinnata migreeniga inimeste elukvaliteedi hindamiseks kasutatavate küsimustike (üldine tervise mõju hindav, peavaluspetsiifiline ja migreenispetsiifiline küsimustik) tulemusi ning migreeniga inimeste elukvaliteeti.
Mittejuhuslikustatud läbilõikeuuringus võrreldi RAND-36 (ingl 36-item Health Survey) küsimustikuga saadud, uuringurühma kuulunud migreeniga patsientide (n = 105) tulemusi üldrahvastiku migreenita kontrollrühma (n = 176) sama küsimustiku tulemustega. Küsimustikuga RAND-36 saadud tulemisi võrreldi nii HIT-6 (ingl Headache Impact Test 6) kui ka MIDAS küsimustikega saadud tulemustega.
Kõigi kolme küsimustiku omavaheliste korrelatsioonide võrdlemisel selgus, et nii peavaluspetsiifilise HIT-6 kui ka migreenispetsiifilise MIDAS (ingl Migraine Disability Assesment Survey) küsimustiku tulemused korreleerusid RAND-36 üldise elukvaliteedi küsimustiku tulemustega. Arvestades seda, et üldise elukvaliteedi küsimustike täitmine on aeganõudvam, soovitame kasutada igapäevases kliinilises praktikas migreenispetsiifilisi küsimustikke.

Hammaste erosioon
Creators: name: Niibo, Priit

Year: 2016

description: Erosiooniks nimetatakse hamba kõvakudedes mineraalide kadu, mis tekib nende kokkupuutel hapetega. Erinevalt hambakaariesest pole happed bakteriaalset päritolu. Kõige sagedamini on kulumise tõttu kahjustunud ülemiste hammaste huule- ja suulaepoolsed ning alumiste purihammaste mälumispinnad. Suhu sattuv hape võib tekitada hambale otsese kahjustuse või muuta pinna pehmeks ning see teeb selle vastuvõtlikumaks mehaaniliste tegurite suhtes. Kõige sagedasemaks kulumise vormiks on kombineeritud kahjustus, kus eelnevalt happe tõttu pehmenenud hambapind eemaldatakse hiljem hambaharjaga pestes. Algfaasis on kulumine asümptomaatiline ning selle avastamine nõuab hambaarstilt tähelepanu ja teadlikkust. Kulumise tekkepõhjused on mitmetegurilised ning diagnoosi püstitamisel on oluline osa arusaamal patsiendi tervisekäitumisest. Kulumise ravi hõlmab lisaks taastamisele ka hambapindade kaitset demineralisatsiooni eest ning põhjustavate tegurite väljaselgitamist ja kontrolli alla saamist.

title: Rebuilding Trust in Electoral Institutions
Creators: name: Pearce Laanela, Therese
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: The storming of the Capitolium in Washington and the collapse of the Afghan government are reminders that our democratic institutions are both precious and fragile. Less dramatic but equally concerning is a slow-burning undermining of institutions, whether through relentless political pressure, external threats, declining internal morale or rising defiance. Electoral management bodies (EMBs), the institutions designated to manage political change inclusively and peacefully, must be trusted for election results to be accepted. This trust can no longer be taken for granted. For this reason, many EMBs are now seeking to incorporate trust-building practices and mechanisms into their operational structures. Thwarting these good intentions is the stark reality that political agitation and tensions run high precisely when operational demands are at peak, creating difficult or impossible situations for electoral authorities to navigate with their reputations intact. This thesis extends institutional trust-building theory to encompass and be practically relevant to electoral authorities. Grounded in desk studies, participant observation fieldwork in Tunisia and a dialogic survey with globally active field practitioners, the research focuses on the interplay between stakeholders' expectations, the handling of predicted events and crisis moments by authorities, and the consequences for institutional trust. Using social science insights to enable a richer, contextualized understanding of electoral trust dynamics, this thesis describes how stakeholder anger and feelings of injustice complicate transactions and information flow with electoral authorities and deplete the legitimacy capital that electoral management bodies require to expedite democracy. While the technical delivery imperatives of election administration are well understood, this thesis shows a wider range of stakeholder needs and expectations that matter for trust-building. In addition to delivery-oriented transactional trust, an EMB trust-building model must also include values-oriented relational trust and the predictability that allows for security-based trust. By highlighting stakeholder perspectives, the thesis provides a social perspective to what has been seen as a technical and administrative problem and provides a broader range of pathways for EMB trust-building policy and practice.
title: Investigating factors influencing low fertility in Asia
Creators: name: Tan, Jolene
Publisher: name: The Australian National University

description: In many high-income Asian societies, low fertility and closely related trends, such as increasing rates of singlehood, delayed marriage and rising age at first birth, have been widely observed and studied. However, many significant contributing factors in the domains of socioeconomic status, attitudes and culture remain that have not been comprehensively and empirically studied. These contextual factors are important because they provide insights into the environment in which family processes occur and help us understand the motivations behind diverse family-formation behaviours. The theoretical and empirical objectives of this thesis focus on the interplay of individual, social and contextual factors that influence reproductive behaviours. This approach allows us to look beyond mere fertility numbers to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying dynamics that shape family-formation behaviours. By considering how different factors operate in specific contexts to influence marriage and fertility patterns, the findings that arise from this thesis may inform the development of family support policies tailored to an array of family-planning needs. This thesis comprises five published papers that present evidence regarding the impact of socioeconomic, attitudinal and cultural factors on marriage and fertility, with specific emphasis on South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan. These papers draw on a wide range of cross-sectional, retrospective and longitudinal data. Conceptually, the various factors are situated at different levels - the micro level (individual or couple), the meso level (family) and the macro level (institutional) - to provide a holistic perspective on fertility. The papers employ a combination of analytical methods, including latent class analysis, survival analysis, multilevel regression analysis, and dominance analysis, to investigate the factors associated with marriage desires, childbearing behaviour and population policy perceptions. Paper 1 examines the influence of education on women's transition to first birth in South Korea. Paper 2 analyses variation in family-related attitudes among never-married individuals in Singapore. Paper 3 explores the impact of couples' division of labour on their fertility behaviour in Taiwan. Paper 4 presents a cross-national analysis of the relationship between intergenerational support and fertility in East Asia. Paper 5 evaluates attitudes towards pronatalist policies in Singapore. The findings demonstrate that declining birth rates stem from an amalgamation of socioeconomic and cultural factors that contribute to the increasing prevalence of singlehood, a growing preference for smaller families and rising tension between women's work and family roles. Efforts that prioritise individuals' family aspirations, reduce barriers to an equitable division of labour between partners, and improve equity in family formation are important in providing support for reproductive choices.

description: Botulismitoksiin on tugev bioloogiline mürk, mille toime võib mürgistuse korral viia lõtvade lihashalvatuste ja hingamispuudulikkuse tõttu surmani. Botulismitoksiini seitsmest serotüübist kaht kasutatakse ravi eesmärkidel: esimest korda võeti botulismitoksiin kasutusele strabismi raviks, praegu on peamiseks kasutusnäidustuseks düstooniad ja spastilisus, aga viimastel aastatel on lisandunud mitmeid uusi näidustusi, nagu liigne süljevoolus, sulgurlihaste häired ja peavalud. Lisaks meditsiinilistele näidustusele on botulismitoksiini kasutatud ka kosmeetilistel eesmärkidel. Kuigi tegemist on tugevatoimelise mürgiga, on ravi kõrvaltoimeid suhteliselt vähe. Eestis alustati botulismitoksiini süstimist düstooniahaigetele 20 aastat tagasi, kuid praeguseks on näidustuste ring märkimisväärselt laienenud. Botulismitoksiini A-serotüübi preparaate (Botox ja Dysport) kasutatakse lisaks ka spastilisuse, liigse süljevooluse ja sulgurlihaste häirete raviks.

description: 10aastane poiss suunati nahakliinikusse epikutaantestide tegemiseks ulatusliku ravile allumatu dermatiidi tõttu. Poisil oli diagnoositud atoopiline dermatiit (AD) ja mitteallergiline astma 1,5aastaselt. Nahatorketestid sisekeskkonna-, õietolmu- ja toiduallergeenidega olid olnud negatiivsed. Epikutaanteste tegema saabudes oli lapse näol, kaelal, aksillaarlohkudes ja jäsemete distaalosadel rohke papuloosne lööve, peopesades ja sõrmedel ka villikesi ning koorikuid. Epikutaantestid Euroopa standardseeria kontaktallergeenidega andsid tugevalt positiivse tulemuse 0,1% seskviterpeenlaktoonide segu, 20% kampoli, 25% Peruu palsami (Myroxylon pereirae vaik) ja 2% formaldehüüdi lahusega ning nõrgalt positiivse tulemuse 5% bensokaiiniga. Seega peaksid AD-haigeid ravivad arstid raviresistentsetel juhtudel kahtlustama allergilist kontaktdermatiiti ja suunama patsiendid epikutaanteste tegma. AD-haigeid tuleks hoiatada lõhnastatud kreemide ja nn looduslike toodete liigse eelistamise eest.
