description: Pathogenesis and therapeutic drugs for ulcerative colitis (UC) have plagued researchers worldwide. In this study, therapeutic targets, and drugs from Chinese medicines for UC were screened using bioinformatics. We downloaded five datasets from the GEO database and three machine learning algorithms were used for screening diagnostic biomarkers of UC. Combined with the differential genes for UC, gene sets related to bile acid metabolism, short-chain fatty acids, apoptosis, pyroptosis, G-protein-coupled receptors, mitochondria, and autophagy were collected to screen the core targets, and analyze the association of therapeutic genes (diagnostic biomarkers and core targets) with immune cells. In addition, screening ingredients of Chinese medicines based on UC therapeutic targets was performed. Molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, and literature validation were also performed. The screening yielded 37 key therapeutic targets, including 5 diagnostic biomarkers (CCL11, CXCL1, PDZK1IP1, TIMP1, and UGT2A3) and 32 core targets based on hot gene sets. Immune cell infiltration was strongly associated with therapeutic targets in UC, especially neutrophils, macrophages, mast cells, and dendritic cells. Furthermore, a total of 33 compounds with high safety had been recognized as having potential to mitigate UC by reverse prediction from Chinese medicines, and molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, and literature reports preliminarily validated the screening results. Although further experimental validation is needed, this work provides some potential therapeutic targets and drugs from Chinese medicines against UC.

Subfamily diagnosis. Tube not spirally coiled; body symmetrical; thoracic sickle (Apomatus) chaetae present; abdominal chaetae flat geniculate.
Remarks. The subfamily Filograninae was proposed by Rioja (1923: 107) who stated that presence of pinnules on the opercular peduncle “indicates that the species included in this subfamily are very primitive, …, corroborated by a hardly developed operculum”. However, molecular phylogenetic studies (e.g., Kupriyanova et al., 2006; Lehrke et al., 2007; Kupriyanova et al., 2023) found that both traditional subfamilies Serpulinae and Filograninae were not monophyletic, so Kupriyanova et al. (2023) re-classified and re-formulated the sub-family diagnoses and based these on chaetal structures.

description: When treating neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s Disease (PD) modern technologies experience many deficiencies and/or limitations that researchers have been working towards improving. The problems that occur with modern devices are inadequate mechanical robustness, glial scarring due to tissue damage, reduced target area localization, and inability to simultaneously record/stimulate in vivo post implantation. The research presented here resolves the issues stated above, delivering the design of a novel Multi-Electrode Probe with 3-D spatial resolution and an on-board preamplification/filtering chip capable of simultaneous recording/stimulation. The probe has been modeled in Wildfire Pro/Engineer 4.0 and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was performed in COMSOL Multiphysics 3.4. The neural chip which consists of both analog and digital circuitry was designed with Taiwan Semiconductor’s (TSMC) 0.18µm CMOS technology. The very large scale integration (VLSI) design and simulation was performed in Cadence Schematic and Spectre, respectively. The aforementioned work was done in hopes of delivering a neural probe that can eventually be used in a closed loop system for Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation treatment.

description: A paradox exists among today’s middle-class parents. Parents today face increased strain on their personal resources, yet middle-class parents continue to make significant investments of time, money, and emotional energy into their children – a practice known as intensive parenting (Hays 1996). The current study seeks to understand why this paradox exists by looking at how parents come to hold intensive parenting standards for themselves. It was speculated that others’ negative judgements during social interactions played a part in why parents held themselves to intensive parenting standards. Data was collected through 55 in-depth interviews with mothers and fathers. Findings reveal that intensive parenting standards are adopted by many from their own parents, but standards are renegotiated by couples once they become parents themselves. Fathers often defer to mothers to guide and direct the resource investments they make in their children. Some evidence is given for why those with reason to resist intensive parenting ideals do not. Adults that struggle to meet identity standards may not speak out to change those standards because they want to avoid scrutinization of their performance. Surprisingly, parents do not hold to intensive parenting standards because of the pressure they feel from others’ judgements. Instead, they hold to them as a strategy to create security for their children’s future, which is seen as a positive and meaningful endeavor. These findings give explanation for why intensive parenting remains prevalent in a resource-strained society.

description: This is an extensive look at one of New Jersey’s most memorable amusement parks, Hunt’s Pier. The paper will explore William C. Hunt’s innovative style of new andchanging rides and a large concentration of unique attractions which made his pier a must visit location for families on the Jersey Shore. It is through the examination of his rides and style that it becomes evident that Hunt’s legacy is more than just a collection of fond childhood memories, but a well deserved credit to his creativity, dedication, and innovativeness. The paper also debunks a common belief of Hunt’s copying Disney’s Disneyland, as it proves Hunt took only cues from his personal friend, Disney, and vice versa.

description: Canonized as a Gothic writer primarily for her novel Jane Eyre (1847), Charlotte Brontë‟s role within the Gothic tradition has been seen by some critics to be an unsuccessful venture and by others to be an attempt to defend the Racliffean school of Gothic literature from critics, such as Jane Austen. However, through tracing the progression of Brontë‟s Gothic through The Professor (1857) and Jane Eyre to Brontë‟s last completed novel, Villette (1853), this essay argues that Brontë goes beyond simply using the standard tropes of the Gothic tradition and, instead, expands upon an already present material element in the tradition to reflect the cultural environment that her novels are written in—in a word, a material Gothic. Through her novels, Brontë develops a material Gothic in which items are inscribed with meaning and relationships are mediated through these items. By the time Villette is published, the value placed on this system of inscription is so great that the Gothic happy-ending experienced by Frances and Jane is not a feasible option for Lucy Snowe. When capitalistic motives interfere in the heroine‟s Gothic tale and are the catalyst for a catastrophic loss, such as the presumed death of Paul Emmanuel, the heroine is left with empty placeholders. Because the meaning of these objects has been eliminated, they cannot serve as an adequate substitute for the satisfying relationship the heroine was supposed to have with her Gothic hero-villain.
The generalization of verbal speech across multiple settings for children with selective mutism

description: Selective Mutism (SM) is a childhood psychological disorder characterized by a failure to speak in certain contexts for at least one month, despite speaking in other social contexts. Children diagnosed with SM usually speak without difficulty to family, but experience difficulties during social situations where they are expected to speak outside of the home (e.g., school, community). The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the effects of individualized treatment on the generalization of speech for children with selective mutism. Participants included four children with selective mutism receiving treatment guided by the Totally Anxiety-Free Communication treatment manual (T.A.L.K.; Gallagher, 2002), a child-focused, exposure-based, behavioral therapy approach. Initial treatment sessions were conducted in a university-based clinic. After each child demonstrated consistent speech output,treatment transported to the child’s school. Participants received between 18 to 22 treatment sessions, depending on when treatment was started during the academic school year. A multiple-baseline design was used to track spontaneous and prompted speech at school across three conditions. These three conditions were as follows: (a) child with teacher alone, (b) child with teacher and peers (≤ 3), and (c) child duringlunch/snack. Changes in speech occurrence were assessed using direct observations and behavioral rating scales. Each child was observed weekly at the child’s school by trained observers during the three conditions. Teachers completed the School SpeechQuestionnaire (SSQ; Bergman, 2002) and parents completed the Selective Mutism Questionnaire (SMQ; Bergman, 2001) weekly. Results indicated all participants demonstrated increased speech at school. Two participants achieved verbal speech generalization. Findings from the observational data indicated an increase in spontaneous and prompted speech at school compared to baseline. Teachers andparents also reported an increase in the frequency of speech at school, home, and public settings. The results of this study support the use of an intensive individualized treatment, such as the T.A.L.K manual, across multiple settings to increase speech forchildren with SM. Clinical challenges are discussed, including limitations of extended baseline designs, time constraints posed by conducting treatment during the academic year, and the need to train educators in techniques and skills for promoting speech atschool for children with SM.

Deux nouvelles stations pour cette espèce particulièrement envahissante (voir MEINARD et al., Bull. Soc. Bot. Centre-Ouest, n.s. 44: 151-156, 2013). Les plantes de Cargèse, auxquelles nous n’avons pas eu d’accés direct, sont peut-être à rapprocher de l’hybride Reynoutria x bohemica Chrtek & Chrtkova, comme le laisse penser la largeur des feuilles. Il serait nécessaire de procéder à une identification certaine de cette population, les plantes hybrides étant caractérisées par la plus grande efficacité de leur reproduction sexuée, donc par leur pouvoir invasif supérieur. Les deux observations ont été faites dans un contexte péri-urbain, mais laissent supposer que l’installation dans le milieu naturel risque de s’accroître dans un futur proche.

The process of consulting with an organization to design an independent living skills program for youth in residential care
Creators: name: Pierre-Morgan, Ashleighann
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2011

description: This dissertation focused on the process of designing an independent living program for adolescents that were victims of child abuse and neglect. These adolescents were removed from their families and placed in residential care due to the inability of their caretakers to care for them or the severity oftheir behavioral and emotional problems that resulted in a high degree of supervision and care. The context of this program is a residential treatment center in an urban setting. Maher's (2000) program planning and evaluation framework was used to facilitate the program design process. Current methodologies for teaching independent living skills in the treatment center and other programs informed the design methodology. This dissertation was conducted with the intention to develop a greater understanding of the independent living needs of children in out of home placements in order to provide recommendations and a program design that guides the assessment and program planning in residential settings that have a responsibility to address the independent living skills needs ofchildren in out ofhome placements. Maher's program planning and evaluation process consists of four phases which include the clarification phase, the design phase, the implementation phase and the evaluation phase. The current dissertation will focus on the clarification and design phases. During the clarification phase an assessment of the residents' independent living needs and relevant organizational context was conducted. The needs assessment revealed that the residents had significant trauma histories, extensive placement histories, poor academic achievement; in addition to, deficits in independent living skill acquisition and knowledge. A program was designed based on the identified needs. The program consisted ofpsycho-education and skill building related to interpersonal skills that facilitate one's ability to live independently. The program also includes an educational component which provides structured opportunities to research and practice during simulated experiences, and a resident life component which provided the opportunity to practice and be evaluated on the skills learned during psychoeducational counseling groups and academic coursework in real time settings. A description of the program is further detailed in this dissertation. Limitations of the dissertation are noted and recommendations are provided for future assessment, design, and implementation of the program.

Cette espèce, rare en Corse, est signalée à Crovani, Galeria, Piobetta, Caspiu, Lopigna, Arto, Noceta et Zicavo, ainsi qu’autrefois à Porto-Vecchio et Bonifacio où elle n’avait toutefois pas été revue depuis 1825 (voir notamment JEANMONOD & ROGUET, Candollea 44: 611, 1989 et HUGOT et al., Candollea 61: 128, 2006). La population de Bonifacio est particulièrement florissante, avec des pieds spécialement grands et florifères. Elle s’est vraisemblablement installée ou développée à la faveur de l’élargissement de la piste d’accès à une bergerie. La station compte par ailleurs de très nombreux pieds de Carduus fasciculiflorus Viv., taxon peu fréquent, peu revu récemment, dont la fréquence dans l’île est peut-être à revoir à la baisse.

description: Honey bees are responsible for the pollination of >80 food crops worldwide and an estimated annual global value of up to $570 billion, of which $29 billion in the US agriculture. However, these essential pollination services are threatened by dramatic declines in honey bee health. In the US, recent annual colony losses have been around 40%; almost twice of what is acceptable to sustain sufficient hive numbers for pollination. Research into honey bee declines has identified several environmental stressors that contribute to this pollination crisis, such as parasites, pesticides, climatic and land use changes. Beekeeping practices have also been named as contributing factors. This is due, in part, to the current inability to accurately monitor and manage bee health in a manner similar to what veterinarians are able to provide for domesticated livestock.

 Safeguarding honey bees and their pollination services requires beekeepers to be better able to manage the health and survival of colonies, which requires research into the causal factors and interactions affecting pollinator health, and the development and implementation of novel tools in close collaboration with industry partners. To do this, we will form a California wide, cross disciplinary research network and

 1. experimentally study the ecological and molecular factors and their interactions that affect honey bee health and their interactions to identify biomarkers of their health,

 2. use the knowledge gained to develop and deliver new, effective solutions for stakeholders, including remote sensing of bee health, a marker-assisted breeding program, and the development of novel medications,

 3. build a research industry nexus to conduct collaborative research. We will also develop and deploy new extension and outreach modules that will be offered through UC Cooperative Extension statewide. We will support California beekeepers to build and maintain a sustainable and profitable beekeeping industry, which has implications for food security on a national level.

 The current coronavirus pandemic and impending recession is putting more pressure on agriculture to provide sufficient and affordable food. Honey bees are key to such efforts, and supporting a California based beekeeping industry also decreases the state’s dependence on managed pollination from elsewhere, thereby creating new jobs and income.

description: Latinx Studies has made profound contributions to 20th- and 21st-century thought through its complex explications of culture and politics in borderlands and myriad colonial contact zones. The field’s terrain, however, has remained grounded in a north American milieu, particularly the US-Mexico borderlands, Caribbean locales, and various Latin American diasporic flows to and within the US. The Global Latinidades Project expands the scope of Latinx Studies by re-focusing the field’s attention onto a broader global terrain. The goal is to recover and assess new and complex models of Latinx life, culture, history and politics—or Latinidades—that are synthesized in contact with peoples and contexts throughout the world, particularly Africa and the Mediterranean, Asia and Pacific Islands, subaltern Europe, and neglected areas of the Americas.

 Latinx people comprise 40% of California, 20% of the US, and are growing throughout the world. The Latinx population has always been complex, internally diverse, and global. It continues to evolve in unique ways that pose multiple challenges—and opportunities—regarding policy, social services, education, cultural politics and more. These demographic developments have led to new trajectories, such as the growing subfields of Central American studies, AfroLatinidades, Latinx-Asian studies, Latinx spiritual diversity, and global Latinx human rights paradigms. Concurrently, the field of Latinx studies has continued to expand in Latin America, Europe and Asia. However, the Latinx Studies in the US, and the University of California System, have yet to devote substantial attention to these global developments.

 This five-campus interdisciplinary programming initiative addresses this lacuna through workshops, symposia, colloquia, workshops, and strategic grants-in-aid to stimulate and develop research in these new global trajectories. It involves publication and grant initiatives and culminates with a major conference. Pursuant to the field’s expansion, collaborators also will create new undergraduate and graduate courses that emphasize new Latinx globalities.

 To extend and consolidate the globalization of Latinx Studies, collaborators will seek internal and external funding, including NEH Summer Institutes; NEH Humanities Initiatives at Hispanic Serving Institutions; Education Department Title V awards; and other sources.

description: Sociology is synonymous with the study of sociality; it encompasses uncovering the fundamental relationships tying individual behavior to group behavior. Considerable labor by countless past scholars has been invested in building the groundwork for a quantitative sociology that is able to cope with the “duality of persons and groups.” But neither persons nor groups are devoid of culture, cognition, or meaning. Recent work from practitioners of relational sociology has encouraged scholars to look at social life with fresh eyes and has proposed the need for analytical methods that are attendant not only to persons and groups, but to culture as well.
description: Sociologists routinely make use of language as data. However, they have begun to lag behind other disciplines in pioneering approaches that are able to make use of the ever-growing availability of such data. This study provides researchers with an overview of two quantitative text analytic techniques—topic modeling and mental modeling—and encourages them to use such approaches to innovate beyond their more familiar methodological territory. These techniques do not supplant earlier tried and true methodologies, or the trained expertise and domain knowledge of researchers, but provide scholars with more tools to gain leverage over important research questions in an era of data saturation.

description: The transportation sector is the largest contributor of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. To articulate how cities may combat rising emissions, municipalities throughout the country have produced climate action and sustainability plans that outline strategies to reduce their carbon footprints from transportation. At the same time, last-mile delivery—also known as urban freight—is becoming an increasingly important component of urban transport emissions due to the rise of e-commerce. However, few cities are overtly pursuing policies to reduce emissions from this subsector. In this research we used content analysis to determine the extent to which major cities (based on population and growth) were considering or actively developing sustainable urban freight practices. We developed a simple contextual scale to compare the comprehensiveness of planning trends between cities. This content analysis also identified the strategies those cities are considering. Our findings show that fewer than half (45%) of the studied cities have considered last-mile freight in sustainability planning at all. Of those, only 17 (29%) have articulated an intent to dedicate resources toward achieving that goal. We found that urban freight planning is still in its infancy in terms of actions taken by municipal agencies. Though some cities have comparatively comprehensive plans dedicated to the industry, most are just now scratching the surface. Those cities lacking dedicated last-mile freight plans can learn from those other cities initiating pilots and collecting data from the industry. We point out also, though, that urban freight planning requires an understanding of the stakeholders, namely, delivery companies, and the first step for many cities is to initiate communication and collaboration with the private sector to better understand the environmental impact of urban freight in their city.

Taxon indigène nouveau pour la Corse. Ce taxon psammophile des arrière-plages et dunes du littoral méditerranéen n’avait pas été encore mis en évidence en Corse, car confondu jusqu’alors avec le subsp. alba (voir par ex. les relevés sur l’île Piana de PARADIS et al., tab. 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, Trav. Sci. Parc Natur. Rég. Réserv. Nat. Corse 50, 1994). Le réséda maritime est longtemps resté un taxon sténo-méditerranéen méconnu (voir ARANEGA, Candollea 49, 1994), bien qu’il s’agisse probablement de l’écotype des habitats littoraux primaires, nettement moins rudéraux que ceux de la sous-espèce type. Il se distingue du subsp. alba par son port prostré ou assez grêle, une taille ne dépassant pas 50 cm, des capsules ovoïdes ou subglobuleuses 2 à 3 fois plus longues que larges et des graines lisses sans papille (VALDÉS BERMEJO, Fl. Iberica IV: 449-452, 1993; TISON et al., Fl. France Médit. Continent.: 987, 2014). Ce taxon mérite d’être recherché dans les groupements des arrière-plages et dunes fixées du littoral corse, notamment sur les îles et îlots satellites où les risques d’introgression avec le subsp. alba, bien plus dynamique, sont moindres du fait de l’isolement.

Feasibility and Acceptability of a Suite of Tobacco Cessation Services for Low-Income Populations

description: California’s relatively low smoking rate (10.1%) masks deep disparities among low-income populations where smoking rates are nearly double that of their middle- to upper-income peers. Low-income smokers report a similar desire to quit, and similar rates of recent quit attempts, as other smokers, yet they lack access to effective resources that help them stay engaged in quit plans and meet their smoking cessation goals.

 This study tests the feasibility and acceptability of a suite of tobacco cessation services designed in partnership with low-income populations for low-income populations. A large community clinic system that primarily serves low-income patients will modify its electronic health records (EHR) system to prompt health care providers to screen all patients more comprehensively for tobacco use. In addition, the EHR will be enhanced to send an electronic referral to the California Smokers Helpline for any interested patients. The Helpline will then proactively call the patient and offer quitting services. The community clinic system also will develop an innovate suite of additional smoking cessation services, including proactive patient navigation to help patients overcome barriers to care and access smoking cessation services, such as counseling, medication, or both, that are the best fit for their needs. At one clinic site, 30 low-income smokers will be offered the enhanced referral to the Helpline only. At a comparable clinic site, 30 low-income smokers will be offered the enhanced referral to the Helpline, in addition to the community clinic’s suite of smoking cessation options. Data from the two groups will be analyzed against the community clinic’s general population of low-income smokers, who will be offered usual care, which includes referral to the Helpline but requires patients to initiate the first call, rather than receiving a call from a smoking cessation coach. Data will be analyzed to determine which quitting strategies, or combination of strategies, work for whom.

 Results of this study will advance health equity by equipping low-income smokers, who otherwise lack access to tailored cessation options, with a suite of treatment services that meet their unique needs. The study holds great promise as a ground-breaking approach to tobacco cessation care for low-income populations.

description: This study will uncover how rural Latinas’ belief systems influence how they coped with a breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Understanding their belief systems are crucial in order to address language and cultural barriers that many Latinas face in health care. Our study uses qualitative methods to center the voices of breast cancer survivors to understand their individual and collective experiences in seeking and obtaining treatment in Merced County. This study will support building capacity between community (Healthy House) and academic (UC Merced) researchers to address the cultural and linguistic barriers Latinas faces in breast cancer care. Our study will collect 20 survivorship narratives from and organize focus groups with 21 Spanish-speaking rural Latinas in the Central Valley. The interview and focus group questions will probe into how their belief systems influence how they dealt with their breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. We will conduct metaphor analysis, a useful approach for this study because of metaphors’ role in offering insights into cultural constructions of health conditions, and reveal ideological information. Metaphor is a window into cultural competency to gain deeper knowledge of how this community conceptualizes the disease. Communities that are affected by health care barriers are the experts on these issues, and therefore, identifying their knowledge and giving them a voice will shed light on best approaches for advocacy and community interventions. We will use our findings to develop culturally and linguistically appropriate materials to share our preliminary results with participants and community members. This pilot data will guide the Co-PIs to strategize towards a future project on how documenting Latinas’ concerns in breast cancer care can lead to practical action, specifically, an intervention that involves adjusting the communication strategies of providers to meet the individual needs of patients.
