Population patterns of hair zinc, dietary and socio-demographic determinants
Creators: name: Vaghri, Ziba
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Marginal zinc deficiency (MZD) exists in children of industrialized societies and can impair growth and development. Presently there are no data available on its global prevalence. It is believed that MZD is one of the most common hidden deficiencies throughout the world. This is partly because of the lack of sensitivity and specificity of serum zinc, the most commonly used biomarker of zinc status, to detect MZD . This deficiency in children is always accompanied by a decrease in hair zinc . Although in research settings hair zinc is a recognized biomarker of MZD in children, health practitioners do not presently use it. These cross-sectional studies were designed to examine the hair zinc status of preschoolers in Vancouver . They also aimed at exploring some dietary and non-dietary factors associated with hair zinc status in an attempt to construct and validate a screening tool for detection of MZD. Our first study indicated a mean hair zinc of 75±30 μg/g, with 46% below the cutoff (<70μg/g) for a group (n=87) of low-income preschoolers (Chapter II). Among these children we observed negative associations between the hair zinc and consumption of dairy (R² =0.09, P=0 .01) and milk (R² =0.08, P=0.01), being described as "often sick" (R² =0.55, P=0 .00) and "eating unhealthy" (R² =0.16 P=0.00), and prolonged breastfeeding (R² =0.11, P=0.01). Our citywide survey (n=719) indicated a mean hair zinc of 116±43 μg/g with 17% below the cutoff (Chapter III). Logistic regression analysis indicated sex, age, maternal education, the number of adults at home, consumption frequency of milk, "scores of activity level", "being described as frequently sick" and "taking supplements containing iron" as the significant predictors of hair zinc status . However, the final model had 16% sensitivity while having 98 .3% specificity, indicating its lack of usefulness as a screening tool. Our study provides important information on the hair zinc status of Vancouver preschoolers. Although we did not accomplish our primary goal of constructing and validating a screening tool, we did identify some factors in children and their environment associated with hair zinc, which may help in better understanding of hair zinc as a biomarker of MZD .

Decommissioning citizenship : the organization of long-term residential care
Creators: name: Baumbusch, Jennifer Lyn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Long-term residential care (LTRC) is a complex sociopolitical milieu where people from diverse backgrounds come to live and work together. In recent years health care restructuring has resulted in the closure of facilities; health care policy has narrowed the population that accesses LTRC so that only those who are the most medically and socially complex are admitted; and there has been a transformation of the work force, a workforce that is mainly comprised of Women of Colour and is among the lowest paid in health care. The purpose of this study was to critically examine the organization of care in LTRC within this context. The theoretical perspective guiding the study was informed by postcolonialism, postcolonial feminism, intersectionalities, and Foucaudian epistemology. The method of inquiry for the study was critical ethnography, which allowed for critical analysis of `taken for granted' assumptions in the organization of care. Over a period of ten months, I was immersed in two LTRC facilities in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. Field work consisted of approximately 218 hours of participant observation. I conducted 51 interviews with administrators, family members, residents, and staff. I reviewed relevant provincial policies and facility-based policies and procedures. I also collected quantitative data related to resident transitions in the health care system (for example, admissions, discharges, and hospital admissions), and staffing levels. Findings from this study were discussed in three key themes. First, a systematic decommissioning of citizenship occurred for residents and staff in this setting. Second, the impact of health care restructuring over the past decade had important consequences for relationships between residents, family, and staff. Third, relational care took place in `stolen' moments that occurred despite heavy workloads. All of these themes were underscored by intra-gender oppression, relations of power, and influenced by discourses of ageism and corporatism, which ultimately played out in day to day interactions between those who live and work there. Recommendations from this study included: addressing the entrenched hierarchies in nursing, further examination of the public-private funding model in LTRC, and the introduction of an independent ombudsperson to ensure consistent, high quality care across the LTRC sector.

Type-species. Pomatostegus macrosoma Schmarda, 1861, by subsequent designation (Hartman 1959): 587–588, junior synonym of Terebella stellata Abildgaard, 1789.
Diagnosis (from ten Hove & Kupriyanova 2009). Tube white, opaque, semi-circular to roughly triangular in crosssection, with up to five longitudinal keels; granular overlay absent. Operculum a very flat ampulla covered with chitinous disk bearing a column with several serrated disks alternating with circlets of spines proximally and closely applied to each disk. Peduncle flatly triangular in cross-section with broad latero-distal wings along its entire length; inserted to the left or right at the basis of the radiolar lobe; from the fact that the first and second radiole separated by the base of the peduncle, it is inferred that it is derived from the second normal radiole. Constriction absent. Pseudoperculum absent. Arrangement of radioles in (semi-)circles, up to 90 per lobe. Interradiolar membrane present. Radiolar eyes present. Stylodes absent. Mouth palps absent. Seven thoracic chaetigerous segments. Collar tri- to penta-lobed, well developed with an entire smooth margin. Tonguelets absent. Thoracic membranes short, ending just posterior to the second row of uncini (segment 3). Collar chaetae Spirobranchus - type, with basal pilose fin [= proximal boss] and distal blade, and limbate. Apomatus - type chaetae present. Thoracic uncini saw-shaped, with 9–13 teeth, anterior peg blunt. Thoracic tori meet ventrally in larger specimens; in juveniles the ventral space between thoracic tori narrowing towards last rows that almost fused, leaving a triangular depression. Abdominal chaetae flat narrow geniculate, with long blade. Abdominal uncini smaller than thoracic ones, with about eight teeth in profile, three teeth in a row. Achaetous anterior abdominal zone absent. Long posterior capillary chaetae absent, but posterior chaetae longer. Posterior glandular pad absent.

Dehydroepiandrosterone and 17beta-Estradiol in plasma and brain of developing and adult zebra finches
Creators: name: Shah, Amit Harendra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The classical model of sexual differentiation states that genes influence gonadal differentiation, and gonadal hormones then drive sexual differentiation throughout development. This model has been called into question by research, especially in songbirds, providing evidence for alternative mechanisms like direct effect of genes and local production of steroids via de novo synthesis or local metabolism of steroid precursors like DHEA, which can be metabolized to testosterone and E₂. In order to assess the role of local steroid production on sexual differentiation in songbirds, levels of DHEA and E₂ were measured in brachial and jugular plasma, as well as brain and peripheral tissues in zebra finches at critical ages during development and in adulthood. DHEA levels in brachial and jugular plasma peaked at P30 and higher DHEA levels in jugular plasma were found in males relative to females at P30. Also, at P30, higher DHEA levels were found in rostral telencephalon in females relative to males. The findings of this study indicate that DHEA may play a role in sexual differentiation of songbirds. Surprisingly, E₂ was non-detectable in many plasma and tissue samples. Higher E₂ was found in the diencephalon in females relative to males at P3/P4 and higher E₂ was found in gonads in adult females relative to males. There was little evidence to suggest that E₂ is synthesized de novo in the brain, although perhaps E₂ is being rapidly metabolized into another estrogen or E₂ synthesis is more localized in the synapse. The findings of this study support the role of alternative mechanisms like de novo steroid synthesis and local metabolism of steroid precursors and challenge the role of classical mechanisms of sexual differentiation in songbirds. Also, these findings may have important implications for sex differences, which develop independently of gonadal hormones, in other animal species.

description: The implementation of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) in healthcare can significantly improve health outcomes and alleviate poverty, particularly in developing countries like Uganda. Despite its potential, EBP adoption remains limited due to challenges such as resource constraints and inadequate infrastructure. This study explores the barriers and facilitators of EBP implementation among lecturers at Makerere University College of Health Sciences (Mak-CHS) in Uganda, providing insights relevant to resource-limited settings. This qualitative study employed semi-structured interviews with 12 purposively sampled lecturers at Mak-CHS. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis to identify key themes related to EBP barriers and facilitators. Participants (n = 12) identified EBP as a relatively new concept in Uganda. Key barriers included resistance to change, lack of resources, inadequate organisational support, and insufficient locally generated research. Facilitators included strong organisational support, integration of EBP training into curricula, and the adoption of a ‘train-the-trainers’ approach. These factors are closely tied to the challenges and opportunities typical of resource-limited settings. EBP adoption in Uganda faces significant challenges, particularly within resource-limited environments. However, strong institutional support and targeted training programs, such as integrating EBP into undergraduate curricula and implementing ‘train-the-trainers’ strategies, are critical for overcoming these barriers. Implications for Practice: To enhance EBP adoption, it is essential to incorporate EBP training into healthcare curricula, develop robust ‘train-the-trainers’ programs, and ensure the availability of necessary resources. These strategies are crucial for fostering a culture of evidence-based decision-making in healthcare, particularly in resource-limited settings like Uganda.

Cooperative and intelligent control of multi-robot systems using machine learning
Creators: name: Wang, Ying
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: This thesis investigates cooperative and intelligent control of autonomous multi-robot systems in a dynamic, unstructured and unknown environment and makes significant original contributions with regard to self-deterministic learning for robot cooperation, evolutionary optimization of robotic actions, improvement of system robustness, vision-based object tracking, and real-time performance. A distributed multi-robot architecture is developed which will facilitate operation of a cooperative multi-robot system in a dynamic and unknown environment in a self-improving, robust, and real-time manner. It is a fully distributed and hierarchical architecture with three levels. By combining several popular AI, soft computing, and control techniques such as learning, planning, reactive paradigm, optimization, and hybrid control, the developed architecture is expected to facilitate effective autonomous operation of cooperative multi-robot systems in a dynamically changing, unknown, and unstructured environment. A machine learning technique is incorporated into the developed multi-robot system for self-deterministic and self-improving cooperation and coping with uncertainties in the environment. A modified Q-learning algorithm termed Sequential Q-learning with Kalman Filtering (SQKF) is developed in the thesis, which can provide fast multi-robot learning. By arranging the robots to learn according to a predefined sequence, modeling the effect of the actions of other robots in the work environment as Gaussian white noise and estimating this noise online with a Kalman filter, the SQKF algorithm seeks to solve several key problems in multi-robot learning. As a part of low-level sensing and control in the proposed multi-robot architecture, a fast computer vision algorithm for color-blob tracking is developed to track multiple moving objects in the environment. By removing the brightness and saturation information in an image and filtering unrelated information based on statistical features and domain knowledge, the algorithm solves the problems of uneven illumination in the environment and improves real-time performance.

Broadening our classroom : planning education and the Naga City Studio course at UBC SCARP
Creators: name: Chase, Jeffery Park
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Broadening our Classroom is organized into two parts. Part One deals with a theoretical discussion about the meaning and motivations of planning education in contemporary societies and times. From here, planning education can be both contextualized and understood within the wider discourse of what planning education should be in the 21st century. This study then works to illuminates areas of planning education that must be critiqued and challenged based on the way they are currently taught and engaged. Here, the ideas of ‘skills’ and ‘competencies’ are teased in an attempt to fruitfully grapple with planning education from the standpoint of its students. This points towards the need for 21st century planners to observe values, utilize skills and employ took-kits which include the ability to work in cross-cultural settings effectively (at home and abroad), an area of planning education which is to an extent lacking in practice. The merger of planning education and cross-cultural learning experience is proposed as a mechanism to address some of the challenges associated with this endeavor. Part Two transports the theoretical discussion into practice through an evaluation of the Naga City Studio Course offered by the School of Community and Regional Planning at the University of British Columbia (SCARP UBC). In May and June 2007, 20 UBC students participated in a ‘Planning Studio’ course in Naga City, Philippines. The Naga City Studio course serves as a case study in operationalizing a direction for planning education. The course is evaluated and analyzed primarily through participant’s experiences and reflections on the course. It becomes clear that the Naga City Studio Course serves as a creative and ultimately profound example of new directions in planning education, providing students the opportunity to gain cross-cultural exposure and to better understand and enhance their planning related skills within a cross-cultural context. The opportunity for students to both develop and better understand the (cultural) competencies necessary as practicing professionals is a key outcome of the course and serves as the key finding of Broadening our Classroom.

Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 390102
subject: Curriculum and pedagogy theory and development

description: Empathy is a skill, rather than an attribute, people can be born with. This skill needs to be taught and practiced so students can make connections to people who have a variety of different experiences than they do. Current research lacks a concrete method on how to teach empathy in a classroom setting. In this quasi-experiment, the researcher uses modeling and two Socratic Seminars to determine if it increases their empathy scores. The data was inconclusive for a variety of factors, but the researcher views this as a steppingstone into understanding the best ways to teach empathy.

Nationalism and ethnicity as identity politics in Eastern Europe and the Basque Country
Creators: name: Young, Jason Richard
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: This thesis demonstrates the powerful relationship between ethnicity, culture, nation and state in the Basque Country and the Former Yugoslavia. In placing Basque and Yugoslav sub-state nationalism in comparative relief this study argues that political state or autonomy seeking behavior on the basis of an ethnically defined or imagined community continues to have powerful contemporary salience. Furthermore when situated within the literature on nationalism, these two cases suggest that the theoretical literature needs to be reworked beyond the positions of Anthony Smith and Ernest Gellner. The endurance of cultural claims to a political state suggests that the connection between ethnicity and the nation is stronger then many contemporary observers have suggested. It is argued that the cultural, political and territorial rights of sub-state nations are likely to remain highly divisive sites of historical, cultural and political contestation. As a force, nationalism is by no means relegated to the past by cosmopolitanism or a ‘post-national’ shift as a number of high profile commentators in the contemporary social sciences have argued. Rather, it remains an active and powerful idea that will continue to shape the sociopolitical landscape of human societies into the twenty-first century as it has the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Use of micro-structured filters to explore the KATRIN background
Creators: name: KATRIN Collaboration
name: Hinz, Dominic
Publisher: name: Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)
Year: 2024

description: The key goal of the KATRIN experiment is the measurement of the absolute mass scale of neutrinos with an unprecedented sensitivity of better than 0.3 eV/c2. Currently, the measured background level exceeds the design value, wherefore a detailed understanding of background processes in the large main spectrometer is required. According to our prior model, background events originate from Hydrogen Rydberg states, generated by the decay of surface-implanted 210Pb, on the main spectrometer vessel surface. Thermal radiation can ionise such long-lived, highly excited states, resulting in low-energy electrons on the meV-scale. These are then accelerated by the retarding potential, thus possess small transverse energy, which is in contrast to signal beta-electrons. We have performed measurements with a passive transverse energy filter (pTEF) implemented as a micro-structured honeycomb gold plate.
This talk discusses the observed transmission of background electrons through the pTEF at different magnetic field values and compares the initial and refined background model.
