description: The current study investigated the effectiveness of a prebirth coparenting  intervention in improving father involvement and the quality of fathering amongst  adolescent and young fathers. Participants included 96 expectant adolescent couples who  comprised the first wave of participants in the Young Parenthood Study. Adolescent  couples participated in a baseline assessment occurring before the adolescent mother was  26 weeks gestation, and participated in two follow-up assessments at 8 weeks and 18  months postbirth. Adolescent couples were randomized into the intervention group  («=51) or control group (n=45) following the baseline assessment, with intervention  couples participating in 5-10 intervention sessions occurring before the baby was born.  The intervention was designed to improve the quality of the coparenting relationship,  with the intention that the quality of the coparenting relationship would "spill-over" into  the quality of parent-child relations.  Results indicated that fathers participating in the coparenting intervention had  higher father-reported scores (but not mother-reported scores) of father involvement at 18  months postbirth as compared to fathers in the control group. Additionally, although  only marginally significant, fathers in the coparenting intervention were warmer with  their children during a play interaction at the 18-month follow-up. There were no  observed intervention effects, however, on the quality of the coparenting relationship at  follow-up, but the quality of the coparenting relationship was related to both father  involvement scores and father warmth. As the first study to investigate the use of a coparenting intervention with adolescent mothers and young fathers together, the results  of the current study offer support for the continued development of coparenting  interventions for use with adolescents.

Sulfonium ylide

description: Sulfonium ylides are formed using mild conditions and a diazo decomposition reaction catalyzed by a transition metal. These intermediates can undergo a variety of  synthetically useful transformations such as [1,2]-insertions and [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. We have recently discovered a novel sulfonium ylide [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to highly substituted indolines. This dissertation describes our studies on  the scope and stereoselectivity of the rearrangement.  A variety of chiral rhodium (II) catalysts were utilized in the reaction and the composition of the rearranged products were analyzed by chiral HPLC. The collected  data provided us with important information about the influence of catalyst structure on the enantioselectivity of sulfonium ylide [3.3]-sigmatropic rearrangements. In the course of this investigation we observed a minor difference in diastereoselectivity among various catalysts. Further studies led us to propose that the reaction preceded via a metal associated ylide intermediate. This theory was supported when we observed a complete loss in diastereoselectivity when various Lewis bases were introduced into the reaction  media. This is the first indication that a transition metal is present at the product determining step in sulfonium ylide rearrangements.The scope of sulfonium ylide [3,3]-  sigmatropic rearrangement was expanded to include imidazole derivatives. The rearranged imidazolines were proposed to have high synthetic interest. Various  vinyldiazophosphonates were synthesized and used in the rearrangement.

description: Candiduria is a common finding. However, in immunocompromised patients like HIV-infected individuals, it has high risk of morbidity and mortality as it could be a pointer to systemic candidiasis. Unfortunately, there are no clear criteria for differentiating between colonization and infection or between upper or lower urinary tract infections.Objective: This study focused on determining the spectrum ofCandidaspecies implicated in candiduria among HIV-infected individuals and their susceptibility to fluconazole and voriconazole in a tertiary hospital.Methods: A total of 300 subjects comprising of 200 HIV patients and 100 non-HIV individuals were used for this study. Clean catch midstream were collected from each individual and processed using standard microbiological techniques. Emergent Candidaisolates were identified with CHROMagar Candida and sugar fermentation tests.Results: The overall prevalence of candiduria among HIV patients was 13.5%. HAART-naive patients had a significantly higher prevalence (OR=4.165, 95%CI=1.602, 10.828; P=0.0038) than their counterpart on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Female gender was a significant risk factor for acquiring candiduria. Age had no significant effect on the prevalence of candiduria in this study. A CD4+ count <200 cells/μl was a significant risk factor for acquiring candiduria only among HAART-naive patients (OR=11.711; 95%CI=3.943, 34.780; P= 0.0001). The three species of Candidarecovered from this study were C. albicans, C. krusei and C.parapsilosis. C. albicans(64.52%, 83.36%) and C. krusei(66.67%, 100.00%) were resistant to fluconazole and voriconazole respectively.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between antiretroviral therapy, CD4+ counts, and the prevalence of candiduria among the study population.

description: A thermal process involving coupled fluidized-bed reactors has been developed at the University of Utah for thermal extraction of tar sand bitumen.  The development of a comprehensive model for the process was completed during the work reported here.  It incorporates models for fluidization hydrodynamics, pyrolysis and combustion kinetics, mass and heat transfer, material and energy balances, and the heat pipes that couple the two fluidized beds.  The model can be used to determine the optimum process conditions for maximizing the oil yields and minimizing the energy requirement of the process.  It predicts that a pyrolysis temperature of 475°C and a combustion temperature of 600°C are optimum.  The simulation results compare well with experimental results obtained for Whiterocks tar sand.  The model accounts for differences in yields of different tar sands on the basis of the chemical nature of compounds present in the bitumen.  However, due to the complexity of the pyrolysis process, accurate correlations are not possible and more information about the chemistry of pyrolysis of bitumen is needed for making predictions with more certainty.

description: As an application of deliberative democratic theory in practice, traditional public  participation programs in urban planning seek to cultivate citizen input and produce public decisions agreeable to all stakeholders. However, the deliberative democratic ideals of these traditional public participation programs, consisting of town hall meetings, hearings, workshops, and design charrettes, are often stymied by interpersonal dynamics, special interest groups, and an absence of key stakeholder demographics due to logistical issues of meetings or lack of interest and awareness. This dissertation project proposes crowdsourcing as an online public participation alternative that may ameliorate some of the hindrances of traditional public participation methods.

Subjects: Tracer Injection Method

description: The Synchronous Tracer Injection method (STI), based on inert gas techniques for determining the distribution of ventilation with respect to the ratio of ventilation to perfusion in the lung, relies upon mathematical models to describe gas exchange relationships in the lung.  Solution of these models requires optimization of systems of nonlinear equations, a task that is complicated by the sensitivity to noise and the lack of global convergence of conventional optimization algorithms,  The Fast Randomized Input (FRI) method, loosely based on multistart global optimization techniques, was developed to provide global solutions to the STI model equations in the presence of noisy data.  The FRI method was tested on a variety of V/Q distributions representing normal and diseased lungs at levels of noise as high as 4%.  In addition, the effect of increased F-i-O-2 on the STI calculation of effective shunt was tested.  Additionally, the effect of model complexity on the uncertainty of solutions is addressed, and considerations for choice of model complexity are discussed.
Fast Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Using Radical Trajectories, Temporally Constrained Reconstruction, and Graphics Processing Unit Clusters

description: Cine phase contrast (PC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a useful imaging technique that allows for the quantitative measurement of in-vivo blood velocities over the cardiac cycle. Velocity information can be used to diagnose and learn more about the mechanisms of cardio-vascular disease. Compared to other velocity measuring techniques, PC MRI provides high-resolution 2D and 3D spatial velocity information. Unfortunately, as with many other MRI techniques, PC MRI su ers from long acquisition times which places constraints on temporal and spatial resolution. This dissertation outlines the use of temporally constrained reconstruction (TCR) of radial PC data in order to signi cantly reduce the acquisition time so that higher temporal and spatial resolutions can be achieved. A golden angle-based acquisition scheme and a novel self-gating method were used in order to allow for  exible selection of temporal resolution and to ameliorate the di culties associated with external electrocardiogram (ECG) gating. Finally, image reconstruction times for TCR are signi cantly reduced by implementation on a high-performance computer cluster. The TCR algorithm is executed in parallel across multiple GPUs achieving a 50 second reconstruction time for a very large cardiac perfusion data set.

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of icing and brushing in producing voiding in hemorrhoidectomy patients with patients with postoperative urinary retention thus reducing the need for catheterization.  It was hypothesized that (1) voiding can be induced by icing and brushing in a substantial number of hemorrhoidectomy patients with postoperative urinary retention and (2) spontaneous voiding will occur less frequently in hemorrhoidectomy patients who are not iced and brushed to relieve urinary retention.  The sample consisted of 24 male and female patients between the ages of 18 and 65 who were alternately placed into a control and experimental group.  Neither of the hypotheses was supported by the findings of this study.  Only 4 out of 12 patients in the experimental group voided in response to the quick application of ice.  One patient out of 12 in the control group voided spontaneously.  Although there was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group as far as voiding was concerned, the data suggested that two uncontrolled variables, postoperative pain medication and the continuous application of external heat to the perineal area, may have affected the outcome and warrant further investigation.

description: The present work focuses on the synthesis of Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes obtained from 2-Chloro-4-methylquinoline and o-Phenylenediamine. The newly obtained compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, UV–Vis, FTIR, 1H NMR, LC–MS, and magnetic susceptibility measurement. The molar conductance values indicate the non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. Based on spectral data indicate octahedral geometry for both Cu (II) and Co(II) complexes. The metal complexes were used as precursors for the synthesis of CuO and CoO nanoparticles via solid-state thermal decomposition without using a catalyst and both the synthesized metal oxide was showed good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue dye. Furthermore, the synthesized ligand and its metal complexes have been tested for antibacterial and antifungal activity. The metal complex showed enhanced antitubercular activity against M. tuberculosis. The in-silico molecular docking study was used to predict the binding interaction of the prepared compounds with target receptor GlcN-6-P synthase.

description: The non-metallic catalyst graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has attracted a significant amount of attention due to its excellent photocatalytic performance. The photocatalytic performance of g-C3N4 has been further enhanced by the incorporation of graphene oxide (GO) as a composite catalyst. However, the enrichment and recovery of these two-dimensional composites after photocatalysis is still a difficult challenge. In this work, a visible light responsive graphene oxide/graphitic carbon nitride coated sponge three-dimensional composite (PU-GO/g-C3N4) was prepared by electrostatic self-assembly using a polyurethane sponge (PU) as a skeleton and g-C3N4 as a photocatalyst. The degradation rate of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light was used as an index to evaluate the photocatalytic performance of PU-GO/g-C3N4. The results demonstrate that during the photocatalytic degradation of RhB by PU-GO/g-C3N4, g-C3N4 is the main photocatalyst, while the holes and the superoxide radicals generated by electron excitation are the main agents. As a bridge connecting PU and g-C3N4, GO improves the agglomeration phenomenon of g-C3N4 on PU. Meanwhile, GO has excellent carrier mobility and inhibits the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes. Moreover, the presence of GO enhances the absorption of light and the adsorption of dyes. Overall, the addition of GO effectively enhances the photocatalytic performance of PU-GO/g-C3N4 due to it enhances dye absorption, improves light energy utilization rate, and expedites transfer of photogenerated electrons. After 5 cycles, PU-GO/g-C3N4 still exhibits an RhB degradation rate of 92.06%, demonstrating good stability and recycling performance. This material shows great promise for practical environmental remediation applications.

Mechanisms of Dnm1p-mediated mitochondrial fission.

description: Mitochondria are semiautonomous organelles essential for eukaryotic life. Mitochondria house the machinery required for cellular respiration and energy production, and hundreds of enzymes required for essential biochemical pathways. Mitochondrial number and distribution are regulated by coordinated mitochondrial fission, fusion, and movement events, and must continually adapt to meet the changing spatial and temporal energy requirements of growing cells. In recent years, it has become clear that defects in mitochondrial fission, fusion, or movement can lead to cellular dysfunction and disease. This dissertation investigates the molecular basis for the process of mitochondrial fission in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae .  Mitochondrial fission is mediated by macromolecular protein complexes localized to the cytoplasmic face of the outer mitochondrial membrane. These complexes are composed of at least three components, Dnm1p, Fis1p, and Mdv1p. Studies presented in this dissertation investigate the coordinated series of inter- and intramolecular interactions required to recruit and assemble these three proteins into functional fission complexes. Studies detailed in Chapter 2 suggest that the cytoplasmic domain of Fis1p interacts directly with Mdv1p, and that this interaction is required for the recruitment of Dnm1p to functional fission complexes. Results presented in Chapter 3 demonstrate that dimeric Dnm1p is initially recruited to mitochondria, and that higher-ordered Dnm1p oligomerization occurs after mitochondrial recruitment. In addition, Chapter 3 suggests that GTP hydrolysis by Dnm1p is required to destabilize mitochondrial fission complexes after fission occurs. Analyses presented in Chapter 4 characterize the domain of Dnm1p required for Dnm1p association with the actin cytoskeleton. Together, these studies comprise a significant advance in our understanding of the molecular basis for mitochondrial fission, and raise important issues for future study.

description: The present work focuses on the synthesis of Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes obtained from 2-Chloro-4-methylquinoline and o-Phenylenediamine. The newly obtained compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, UV–Vis, FTIR, 1H NMR, LC–MS, and magnetic susceptibility measurement. The molar conductance values indicate the non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. Based on spectral data indicate octahedral geometry for both Cu (II) and Co(II) complexes. The metal complexes were used as precursors for the synthesis of CuO and CoO nanoparticles via solid-state thermal decomposition without using a catalyst and both the synthesized metal oxide was showed good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue dye. Furthermore, the synthesized ligand and its metal complexes have been tested for antibacterial and antifungal activity. The metal complex showed enhanced antitubercular activity against M. tuberculosis. The in-silico molecular docking study was used to predict the binding interaction of the prepared compounds with target receptor GlcN-6-P synthase.

description: Decision making is an integral part of quality nursing care and a primary nursing intervention. The aim of this study was to evaluate decision-making documentation and the elements that support decision making in flight nursing practice. The study also examined whether the documentation was adequate to meet standard protocols or guidelines available within the trauma community. The documentation for 48 trauma patients transported by rotor wing aircraft was examined and analyzed. Findings demonstrated that air medical personnel documented decisions that occurred during air transport as well as elements that supported these decisions. The study found that although air medical personnel may not directly document statements of rationale, each decision element was supported by documentation to meet published criteria for making the decision.

description: Introduction: Head circumference is widely used as a marker of brain growth in very preterm infants (VPT). We aimed to evaluate the progression of head circumference (HC), extra-cerebral space (ECS) and estimated brain volume (EBV) of VPT between birth and term equivalent age (TEA) in comparison to term-born controls. Methods: We assessed prospectively a cohort of infants born at ≤32 weeks gestation and term control newborns. Infants with cerebral abnormalities were excluded. HC was measured at birth and TEA in preterm infants and at birth in term infants. ECS and EBV were estimated by a previously described ultrasonography model (Graça AM, Early Hum Dev 2013) applied on cranial ultrasounds performed during the first days of life (preterms and controls) and at TEA (preterms). Z-scores for HC were determined using Fenton 2013 growth charts and Z-scores for ECS and EBV were defined in controls. Results: We assessed 105 infants (49 preterms and 56 controls). HC Z-scores increased significantly between birth and TEA and were identical to controls at TEA. ECS Z-scores increased significantly between birth and TEA and were higher at TEA than controls. EBV Z-scores decreased significantly between birth and TEA and were lower at TEA than controls. Conclusion: Normal HC Z-score of healthy preterms at TEA does not reflect a brain sparing effect, as it is mainly due to an increase in extra-cerebral fluid rather than brain volume. Caution is advised when using HC as a marker of adequate brain growth in VPT, particularly when discussing outcomes with parents.

Formulation of a predicting index of survival following intracardiac surgery in children.

Subjects: Myocardial
Pulmonary Functon

description: Fifteen infants and children were studied after intra-cardiac surgery as a pilot project, in an attempt to determine whether an index can be derived from the mixed venous oxygen tension (PvO2) that incorporates the duration and magnitude of the change form the normal PvO2.  Two of the fifteen patients died (from apparent acute cardiac failure) both with atrio-ventricular defects. Pertinent data were recorded every thirty minutes for six hours, including cardiac index (CI), PvO2, arterial blood gases, and cardiac filling pressures.  The PvO2 in all subjects were markedly inconsistent.  The tow non-survivors did not demonstrate any significant differences between each of their thirty minute PvO2â€™s as compared with the means of the total group.  Two survivorsâ€™ PvO2 measurements were less than thirty torr for part or all of the six hour study period.  However, the means of the group as a whole ranged from 29.8 torr to 32.4 torr for each measurement.  The CI was equally erratic.  In two subjects, both the Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return (TAPVR) the CI remained less than two liters per minute.  At the time of the measurements, all other clinical parameters did not correlate with these low output measurements.  An attempt was made to match the measurements of each subject with the prediction isobars developed by Parr, Blackstone, and Kirklin (1975).  In particular, several subjects with low PvO2â€™s and CI survived against the probabilities defined by Parr, and on subject died, although the odds were in favor of survival.  The mean arterial pressure (MAP) of each subject varied, but there was no correlation between MAP, and CI, PvO2 or survival.  A positive correlation was noted between core temperature and PvO2. The possible or residual intracardiac shunt causing falsely elevated PvO2â€™s was considered but not verified.  The author concludes that multiple variables may affect the oxygenation as reflected by the PvO2, and in order to devise a predictive index, a population of at least sixty subject must be studied in order to statistically account of each variable.

Mechanism of mitochondrial dynamin adaptor binding and membrane recruitment

Mitochondrial fission

description: Many cellular membrane fission events are mediated by dynamin-related proteins (DRP), which self-assemble into spirals encircling the lipid tubes at their sites of action. DRPs are GTPases whose activities are dramatically stimulated upon assembly. Rapid GTP hydrolysis causes constriction of DRP spirals and leads to membrane fission. DRPmediated membrane fission is initiated by the recruitment of a certain DRP to the specific cellular membrane via adaptor proteins. The adaptors also co-assemble with DRPs to form active fission complexes. The molecular mechanism for this important recruitment step is poorly understood, as is the function of adaptor proteins during fission complex formation and membrane severing. In this thesis, we studied DRP membrane recruitment and adaptor functions using the yeast mitochondrial fission machinery including the DRP Dnm1, the adaptor Mdv1, and the membrane anchor Fis1. To initiate mitochondrial fission, Dnm1 is recruited to the mitochondria via a direct interaction with Mdv1, which binds Fis1 on the mitochondrial outer membrane. As described in Chapter 2, we identified a novel motif in the Dnml Insert B domain that is essential for the interaction of Dnml with Mdvl. Mutations in this conserved motif severely impaired Dnml-Mdvl interaction and mitochondrial fission. Suppressor mutations in the Mdvl P-propeller domain rescued defects caused by the Insert B mutations. The positions of these suppressor mutations define potential binding sites for Insert B on the Mdvl P-propeller. In Chapter 3, we demonstrated that Mdvl plays dual functions, as an adaptor and in scaffolding, during fission complex formation. Mdvl dimerizes via a 92A coiled-coil, which determines the optimal architecture of fission complexes. Together, these studies provide mechanistic insights regarding DRP membrane recruitment and the functions of adaptors in DRP-mediated membrane fission. Although the sequence of Insert B and the adaptors are varied among DRPs, we believe that they are functionally conserved and may have co-evolved to meet the requirements of specific fission events in different tissues and cell types.
