Fiber, Estrogen and Breast Cancer in Mexican American Women

description: There is a large and compelling body of evidence (both epidemiological and experimental) implicating estrogen in the cause of human breast cancer. The role of diet in breast cancer risk is less clear. However, there is evidence to suggest that dietary fiber may play an important role in estrogen metabolism and may therefore be an important determinant of circulating estrogen levels in the body. Thus, understanding the biological relationship between dietary fiber intake and estrogen metabolism may provide some insight in how diet may alter a woman's risk of breast cancer.

 We propose to investigate the hypothesis that high intake of dietary fiber, either total or a specific fraction (e.g., soluble fiber from legumes or insoluble fiber from grain), lowers estrogen levels in the body and thus lowers a woman's risk of breast cancer. We will be examining this hypothesis among a group of Mexican American Latinas currently enrolled in an ongoing research study. These women are a scientifically important group to study, because they have the lowest breast cancer rates of any major racial/ethnic group in the US, and their dietary fiber intake is higher than what is reported by other racial/ethnic groups.

 Two generations of Mexican-origin postmenopausal women numbering nearly 7,000 are currently enrolled in an ongoing cohort study. Baseline data on dietary fiber have been collected and blood and urine specimens are currently being collected as part of an NIH funded grant. No additional subject recruitment will be required for this proposed study. We will compare dietary fiber intake, quantified from both a food frequency questionnaire and from a biochemical marker of intake, with blood hormone levels. An updated food frequency questionnaire will be administered at the time of blood draw to obtain current dietary information.

 Epidemiology studies examining dietary fiber and breast cancer risk are equivocal. Investigators have proposed that the reason may be due to the heterogeneous nature of dietary fiber, differences in ways fiber is measured and quantified, or the magnitude of fiber intake in the populations studied. This study is innovative in that it (1) utilizes an ideal population where the traditional diet is rich in dietary fiber; (2) comprises two generations of Mexican origin women where differences in breast cancer rates provide powerful evidence on the extent to which the causes are due to changes in environmental factors; and (3) utilizes two methods of quantifying fiber intake - that of a food frequency questionnaire as well as a biochemical marker.

description: ? Astrogorgia umbraticoides (Studer, 1878) new comb.
Muricea umbraticoides (error for Muricella) Studer, 1878a: 650, pl. 3, fig. 16 (Australia).
Opinion: There is no evidence that this species occurs in the region.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Thomas & George 1986: 102, fig. 1e, 1–4 (Kovalam).
Literature analysis: In Studer’s account of this species, he documented the specimen under Muricella but mistakenly named the species Muricea umbracticoides. The description of the holotype, collected off Western Australia, includes a figure of the colony but only 3 sclerites, the largest of which is rather oval-shaped. Studer described the specimen as having calyces and spindles with the warts mainly on one side and forming a pavementlike layer. Ridley (1884: 336) assigned a specimen from the north-east coast of Australia to this species and said that the warting was not one sided, but he provided no illustrations. Wright & Studer (1889: 124) identified material from the Arafura Sea off the north coast of Australia with this species and said the warts were decidedly larger on one side of the large surface spindles, but also provided no illustrations. Thomson & Simpson (1909: 244) just paraphrased Wright & Studer’s description. Unfortunately, Studer’s description is not adequate to be able to recognise the species, so all subsequent reports cannot be validated. However, the species is probably an Astrogorgia.
Thomas & George’s (1986) description does not mention if their colony has calyces or not and the small outline drawings of the sclerites include many forms that do not correspond with what is known of the holotype. Thomas & George (1987) just listed the species under its original name.

description: The World Health Organization has estimated that 10% of the world’s population (650 million people) has a disability. Assistive Technology (AT) has the potential to improve function for individuals with disabilities. Research and development must to focus both on universal design approaches for the population, as well as customization to meet individual functional demands. This mini-symposium will present the trends driving the need for AT, case studies demonstrating solutions to functional challenges, and evidence-based policy measures that are being implemented to meet the needs of people with disabilities living in the community.

Since 1991, UMass Lowell has operated an AT Program through which individuals with disabilities and community organizations meet with teams of students and faculty to design customized solutions. Symposium participants will discuss the development of population-level measures and examine indicators linking AT device use to psychosocial well-being: ultimately informing AT policies regarding access and provision. Participants will also to discuss challenges in translation of AT research due to the diversity of users and the functional implementation of AT solutions. Ultimately, participants will recognize the complex nature of AT solutions for persons with disabilities, and provide input on a strategy for a multidisciplinary collaboration to foster a novel person-center approach to research in this area.

Opinion: This species does occur in the region but its status is uncertain.
Justification:
Literature analysis: The descriptions of the Indian material by Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical, and the surface sclerites are described as having a glassy, transparent periphery and a pink core, which is a notable character if consistent and valuable if unique. But the sclerite figures are poor and very small, and without detailed descriptions and more images of them, including the polyp armature, and close-up mages of the polyps and calyces, it would not be possible to distinguish this species from similar taxa. Even then, without a revision of the genus, it would probably be impossible to assess its validity as a new species.

Astrogorgia verrilli

description: ?? Astrogorgia verrilli (Thomson & Henderson, 1906) new comb.
Anthogorgia verrilli Thomson & Henderson, 1906: 64–65 (Andamans).
Opinion: This species does occur in the region but was originally misidentified.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Fernando 2011; 34–35, pl. 12, fig. 1–1c (SE coast); Fernando et al. 2017: 64, pl. 25, 2–2c (SE coast) as Anthogorgia virrili (sic).
Literature analysis: Originally placed in the genus Anthogorgia, neither the colony, nor the polyps and the sclerites were illustrated in Thomson & Henderson’s description and because the material has never been redescribed the species remains unidentifiable. However, the authors did state that the polyp sclerites were arranged as “crown and points” and that the polyps were totally retractile, so they clearly did not have an Anthogorgia specimen before them. Their description is not sufficient to be able to tell what genus they had, but with just spindles it is very likely the specimen was an Astrogorgia.
The identical accounts given by Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) state that their “species corresponds with the description attributed to the specimens described from the Andamans by Thomson & Henderson (1906) except obviously for the colour”. However, they make no mention of the polyps being retractile or having sclerites arranged as collaret and points, and their description, which mentions that the sclerites have large tubercles, actually appears to represent an unknown species of Anthogorgia, which is completely different from the material described by Thomson and Henderson.

Opinion: This species does occur in the region.

Literature analysis: This species was originally described from off Sri Lankan waters but would be very difficult to recognise from that account as shown by the detailed redescription the holotype by Bayer & Ofwegen (2016). The descriptions of the Indian material by Fernando (2011) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical, and a comparison with the holotype redescription shows that their material is similar but not conspecific and appears to represent a new species.

Nasal Coarticulation in the French Vowel /i/: A Phonetic and Phonological Study
Creators: name: Spears, Abby
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2006

description: In this paper, I use acoustic phonetic data to examine the phenomenon of nasal coarticulation in French.  Previous work describes French as a language with very little vowel-nasal (VN) coarticulation, presumably due to the oral/nasal contrast in vowels (Cohn 1990). However, I found that the high vowel /i/, which has no nasal counterpart in French, exhibits a high degree of coarticulation  This finding supports the proposal that contrast and coarticulation are inversely correlated (Manuel 1990), adding the insight that this correlation is observable even within a language.   Based on this finding and a typological survey of VN coarticulation, I propose an underspecification account in an Optimality Theoretic framework to capture the patterns of VN coarticulation. In this OT account, the interaction of markedness constraints driving orality and minimizing effort and a faithfulness constraint protecting the feature [+ nasal] provides an explanation for the French data and produces the attested typology.
Common, Uncommon and Rare Phonological Disorders: An OT Perspective

Year: 2004

description: George Mason University Master's Thesis, 2004Thesis Director: Dr. Steven H. WeinbergerThis thesis analyzes phonological disorders with derivational theory and Optimality Theory (OT).  Because of its typological nature, OT is shown to be a better theory in which to analyze phonological disorders.  Phonological disorders are classified into three sub-types here: common, uncommon, and rare. Within the framework of OT, distinct constraint rankings are proposed for each sub-type.  These rankings are also compared with normal acquisition and adult grammar.

Emergent optimal vowel systems
Creators: name: Van Leussen, Jan-Willem
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2008

description: An interesting aspect of vowel systems is that they seem to balance between articulatory ease and auditory contrast. This tension is often proposed as the cause of the remarkable overlap between the organization of vowels in various languages. This thesis aims to integrate self-organizational, agent-based models of vowel dispersion with an existing Optimality Theoretic model of non-teleological phoneme dispersion. To this end, a computer simulation combining both approaches was developed. Simulation results show that dispersed vowel systems still emerge in the artificial language of the agents, although its predictions with respect to vowel quality are not entirely accurate. The ability of the model to account for the diachronic process of chain shifts caused by vowel splits or mergers is also explored. The results confirm that innate constraints are not needed to model vowel dispersion and that these types of simulations may be helpful in investigating synchronic and diachronic phonological phenomena. However, the model described in this thesis needs to be enriched with more levels of representation to increase its explanatory power.
Syllable Contraction in Cantonese A-not-A Constructions: An Optimality Account
Creators: name: Lam, Wai Man
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: "This thesis describes and explains the behavior of the various strings of A-not-A constructions in Cantonese connected speech, namely £m1-m21-£m2, £m1-m21-£m2-£m3 and £m1-£m2-m21-£m3-£m4, in which the morpheme /m21/ is sequenced between two identical verbs or adjectives. In £m1-m21-£m2 and £m1-m21-£m2-£m3 strings, the syllabic nasal is either realized as the coda of £m1 or the onset of £m2, which is subject to phonological context. These patterns are explained through constraint interaction of a set of universal and violable constraints in Optimality Theory (Prince & Smolensky 1993). I demonstrate that the universality of OT constraints can relate language-specific processes with universal tendencies of connected speech. Cross-linguistic differences in connected speech phonology can be explained via different constraint rankings. The OT framework allows a unified discussion of language universality and language specificity in regard to connected speech processes.The prohibition of syllable contraction in the £m1-£m2-m21-£m3-£m4 string as well as the simple negation string m21-£m1 is attributed to prosodic constituency, which provides evidence that syllable contraction does not only concern the two contracted syllables, but is also governed by prosodic factors of a larger domain, namely the phrase level. I argue that various A-not-A strings are governed by the same ranking of constraints, in which faithfulness to the prosodic head is put to the highest priority.I argue that the flexibility of constraint re-ranking mechanisms contributes to the explanation of the high degree of variation among connected speech forms. Variant forms of syllable contraction demonstrate varying closeness to the citation form, depending on the demand of speech clarity, which is represented by faithfulness constraints. The constraint re-ranking mechanism allows a unified discussion of variant forms and their relationship with conflicting demands. The flexible nature of the OT framework sheds light on the study of connected speech."

Reranking constraints: Coda obstruent devoicing in the acquisition of English phonology by Polish speakers
Creators: name: Obiała, Tomasz
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2008

description: The present research will investigate how successful Polish learners are at acquiring English phonology. This will be done on the basis of coda obstruent devoicing.The aim of this dissertation is to check how the status of a complete beginner’s phonology is represented in OT, how certain constraints must be downgraded or promoted (reranked) in order for the speaker to produce phonemes of quality adequate for his level of advancement. Finally, one of the aims is also to investigate how the interim stages of interlanguage phonology for the analyzed speakers can be represented in OT.
Juncture Phrasing Thresholds:  A constraint-based approach to speech rate effects  on Mandarin tone sandhi
Creators: name: Lee, Tzu-Ying Vivian
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: This thesis investigates the effect of speech rate on Mandarin tone sandhi. This effect is argued to be the result of hypothesized thresholds on the duration of junctural units that lie between phonological phrases. A new type of constraint, *WrapSD(nmsec), is proposed that assigns a violation to every juncture that exceeds a specified durational threshold. The *WrapSD(nmsec) constraints are incorporated within recent constraint-based approaches to phonological phrasing and shown to be superior to alternative approaches that require either cyclic rule application or constraint re-ranking. This approach also leads to an empirical exploration of four new sentence types, which are documented with eleven native Mandarin speakers and shown to be consistent with juncture thresholds.

Opinion: There is not enough evidence that this species occurs in the region.
Justification:
These Indian records seem to be either invalid or unconfirmable: Kumar et al. 2014a: 70, pl. 32, fig. A–E (Munak Gate, Nicobar); Fernando et al. 2017: 85, pl. 37, fig. A–E (Munak Gate, Nicobar)
Literature analysis: The descriptions given by Kumar et al. (2014a) and Fernando et al. (2017) are identical, but it is impossible to know the true characteristics of their specimen because the description of the sclerites and their occurrence is taken word-for-word from Grasshoff’ (1999). However, it is obvious from the illustrations that their specimen belongs in the genus Acanthogorgia. Their sclerite figure shows some of the colourless sclerites from their specimen, but have also included two red sclerites that are probably from an Echinogorgia. Kumar et al. (2015, 2018) just lists the species and present the same colony figure from the 2014 and 2017 publications above.

Acquisition and Opacity
Creators: name: Tihonova, Olga
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: This thesis focuses on the most recent OT-based theory of opacity called Optimality Theory with Candidate Chains (OT-CC, see McCarthy 2007). To date very little attention has been dedicated to the problem of acquisition of OT-CC grammars and to the treatment of spontaneous opacity effects in the light of OT-CC. In this thesis we demonstrate that OT-CC grammars can be effectively learned by the BCD algorithm (Prince & Tesar 2004). Also, on the basis of evidence from obligatorily counterbleeding processes, NDEBs and non-target-like opacity effects, we propose to make certain changes to the status of Precedence constraints with the view to increase the descriptive adequacy of OT-CC. We show that our proposed adjustments allow OT-CC to account for emergence and subsequent loss of spontaneous opacity effects, as well as for the phenomenon of U-shaped learning and cross-subject variation in early production data.
