Treatment of Crohn’s disease and comorbid mental illness
Creators: name: Montfort, Angel C.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: The purpose of this dissertation is to develop a clinician manual and patient workbook that will be effective in treating Crohn’s disease and comorbid mental illness(s). The model for this treatment program is an existing treatment program that used Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with diabetes patients, producing symptom reduction and better use of coping skills (Gregg et al., 200&).  Irritable Bowel Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome are defined, and a distinction is made to provide a rationale for the impetus to use acceptance-based strategies. Patients will receive treatment in both group and individual session modalities. Due to the amount of stigma surrounding the disease, an individual psychotherapy component is included to provide a space for more comfortable disclosure as patients begin to develop trust in the group. Patients suffering with Crohn’s disease experience depression and anxiety quite often. For this reason, an argument is made that in addition to medical management of the disease, a psychological component is necessary to provide an optimal contextual treatment. The treatment protocol will include regular monitoring of patient physical and mental symptoms as well as step-by-step session modules for group and individual sessions. Strengths and limitations of the manual, in addition to suggestions for future directions of research are discussed.
The influence of cultural match and sense of community on latino school-based parent engagement

description: Ethnic minority children in the United States, particularly Latino children, are more likely to have lower levels of academic achievement than their White counterparts.  Increasing Latino parent engagement in their children’s schooling may help reduce this gap in academic achievement.  Parent engagement is of particular importance in early childhood given it may lay the ground work for their engagement throughout their children’s years of schooling. Despite Head Start’s efforts to increase parent engagement, research has shown that parent engagement in school is lower among Latino parents.  It might be the case that cultural congruence between schools and Latino parents may be linked to their higher engagement. Yet, very few empirical studies have examined this gap in our knowledge. The current study addressed this gap in knowledge through its examination of cultural match between Latino parents and their children’s teachers at Head Start centers.  Participants in the present investigation include 294 consenting Latino parents with children enrolled in Head Start programs throughout a large city in the Northeastern United States.  Parents (N = 294) and teachers (N = 3&) provided their generational status, country of origin, and primary language use in the home or classroom.  Teachers also provided information regarding the frequency and quality of family engagement over a one-month period in the school.  Using hierarchical linear modeling, findings indicated that Latino match (whether a parent and the Head Start teacher both identified as Latino) and parent-reported sense of community were significantly associated with teacher-rated parent involvement.  When a parent had a Latino teacher, it explained a significant but modest amount of the variance in parent engagement.  That said, sense of community was not found to be the mechanism explaining why Latino match was linked to parent engagement. Implications for Head Start’s recruitment and training of their teachers are further discussed.

R. alexandrinus: Won, 1958 p.448.
R. rattus rufescens: Won, 1967 p.236.
Range: The range of R. tanezumi converges in the central and southern regions of Korea, with populations especially prominent in and near port cities including Jeju Island and Ulleung Island (Fig. 125). Interactions with R. norvegicus limit the distribution of the roof rat. On Jeju Island, the range of R. tanezumi was restricted to within 1 km of the port (Won 1967).
Remarks: The population on Ulleung Island was mistakenly identified as R. n. longicaudus but corrected as R. rattus tanezumi. Corbet (1978) regarded the Korean population as R. r. tanezumi along with China and Japan. Jones and Johnson (1965) described black rats in Korea as R. rattus flavipectus; Won (1967) disagreed and proposed that the black rat in Korea should be R. rattus rufescens. Won (1968) disputed this subspecies with a classification of R. r. rattus instead. Corbet (1978) questioned R. rattus flavipectus stating that R. r. flavipectus was a synonym for R. rattus tanezumi. Koh (1992) confirmed R. r. tanezumi (Temminck, 1844) as the subspecies name for roof rats in Korea. However, Carleton and Musser (2005) elevated R. r. tanezumi to Rattus tanezumi as a monotypic species but mammalogists in Korea rarely accepted R. tanezumi. Based on mtDNA analysis, Kim et al. (2013b) confirmed the correct identity of R. rattus on Jeju Island as R. tanezumi. Since apparently, R. rattus and R. tanezumi are cryptic species, and morphological identification of specimens was involved, the classification of most R. rattus in Korea must change to R. tanezumi.

description: The two most difficult issues faced by breast cancer patients that lead to recurrence are the development of drug resistance and uncontrolled metastasis of cancer cells. Drug resistance has traditionally been strongly associated with cell transporters, such as the P-glycoprotein, which remove drugs from inside of cancer cells. In addition, discoveries in the past decade have revealed a whole range of new drug resistance factors, including members of the heat shock protein family. One group of these stress proteins is known as the glucose-regulated proteins (GRPs). Using human mammary carcinoma as model system, our research will establish whether the induction of a specific GRP (GRP 78/94) will diminish the cell killing of chemotherapeutic reagents.

 We previously discovered that GRPs impede cell proliferation and confers resistance to doxorubicin and camptothecin. Our BCRP-funded project has two central aims. First, we hope to further understand the mechanism by which GRP 78/94 works to confer drug resistance. For this, we will test whether this drug resistance is associated with other key indicators for breast cancer, such as p53 status (a tumor suppressor protein), the estrogen receptor, and the multi-drug resistance P-protein. Our second aim is to suppress GRP 78/94 in breast cancer cells to see whether this restores drug sensitivity.

 Studying the GRPs is logical, because in solid tumors there are regions of low oxygen concentration. This oxygen and metabolic starvation effect is called hypoxia, and leads to a cellular stress condition promoting the production of GRP-type proteins. Thus, the drug-resistance aspects of GRP appear to be a side product of the altered metabolic conditions typical in breast cancer. Our hope is that work on GRPs will lead to new targets to treat breast cancer.

description: A growing number of studies have noted the importance of data visualization when utilizing a mixed-methods approach to community-based participatory research (CBPR). One such CBPR-derived method – Our Voice – is a citizen-science (CS) based approach that leverages technology to improve health outcomes for residents from diverse communities. Virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) are two cutting edge technologies that have been cited as potential tools to improve the data visualization and solution-building process in Our Voice and similar community-facing methods; however, these technologies have rarely been implemented in such projects. Here, I report the first integration of VR and AR into two Our Voice projects: (1) a project with adult unpaid care workers in Ciudad Bolívar, Bogotá, Colombia; and (2) a project with high school students in Half Moon Bay, CA, United States. This investigation found that after utilization of VR/AR as part of the Our Voice method, citizen scientists and local stakeholders in both projects felt that VR/AR enhanced their ability to visualize community-level barriers and facilitators to leading healthy lives. Additionally, participants supported the potential of VR/AR in facilitating the development of innovative community-facing solutions to address various issues around their neighborhoods. The findings from this study illustrate the promise of VR/AR to inform relevant change in diverse communities and problem areas. Future studies may consider developing software that makes the transition from data visualization to active digital solution-building more comprehensible to a wide range of community members and organizations.

description: Social aggression amongst female adolescents in middle school is considered to be a normative experience during this period.  For some, these experiences can have an extensive impact, thus negatively affecting their mental health and academic performance.  Due to its often subtle nature, social aggression can be misconstrued as harmless behavior and teachers/parents observing problems in these early adolescents may not immediately pick up on the presence of social aggression.  School settings are often not well equipped to assist students who are having particularly severe problems with social aggression, and families may not be familiar with what care is available to their adolescent.  The current systematic case studies document and discuss two cases involving eighth grade female adolescents who received interpersonal-therapy-focused treatment at a family-based mental health clinic located in a public high school for issues involving social aggression with peers.  Results indicate that while across both cases only a few of the results on the quantitative measures showed statistically significant improvement, in both cases a majority of quantitative measures moved in a positive direction. Also and importantly, qualitative analysis showed important gains in both cases. Both differences in patterns of change across the two cases as well as common themes between them are discussed.  Overall, these case studies suggest that, within the context of a family-based, psychotherapy clinic located in a public high school, families and their adolescents can derive benefits from a brief intervention designed to reduce the effects of social aggression.
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT)

description: Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is widely used as a treatment for severe  depression, mania, and chronic suicidality. An estimated 100,000 people in the United States receive ECT annually and its popularity within psychiatry is increasing. In recent years, scholars have focused their attention on investigating the neurobiology and electrochemistry of ECT. This has led to advances in technique and reduced side-effects. However, ECT has more than a discrete impact on mood and cognition; recipients must cope with treatment and assimilate the experience into their lives. Aims: The purpose of this study was to explore the unique impact of ECT on the psychodynamic treatment of recipients. The study was designed to help develop recommendations and strategies for working with patients to process the impact of ECT on their lives. Method: Case study methods were used to examine the experiences of five psychotherapists who had each treated a patient who received ECT while in treatment. Conclusions: Findings revealed that the decision, procedure, and outcome of ECT impacted the psychotherapist’s treatment of the patient, the therapist’s attitudes toward ECT, and the patient’s experience of himself. Preliminary suggestions for psychotherapists working with patients who are considering or are receiving ECT are included.

description: Southern California is in the grip of a major drought, yet urban areas throughout the region “throw away” vast quantities of stormwater runoff by letting it flow to the ocean. In this proposed MRPI a multidisciplinary team of senior, mid-career, and early-career researchers from across the five southern UC campuses will join forces to catalyze a revolution in the form and function of urban stormwater infrastructure in Southern California and beyond, transforming it from a leading cause of environmental degradation into a multi-functional green system that augments urban water supply, protects human and ecosystem health, minimizes flood risk, and ensures public safety. To realize this vision we will conduct coordinated field, laboratory, and modeling studies of green stormwater infrastructure (in particular biofilters, also known as rain gardens, bioswales, and bioretention ponds), using the five southern UC campuses as a living laboratory. While our project is focused on Southern California, the science, engineering, and policy innovations we uncover will inform similar transitions occurring in rapidly urbanizing regions throughout the world. Our MRPI will support stipends for undergraduate students (5), graduate students (8), and post-doctoral researchers (3), and fund various outreach and engagement programs for K-12 students, campus stormwater programs, government agencies, consulting firms, and community college teachers (through a NSF RET Site). As public attention shifts progressively toward water scarcity, particularly in Southern California, our MRPI will be perfectly placed to help the UC become a leader in green stormwater management, and perhaps even facilitate a systemwide green stormwater initiative, along the lines of the systemwide carbon neutral initiative already in place. Looking forward, our long-term goal is to use the MRPI as a springboard for an NSF Engineering Research Center, and a hub of university/industry collaborations on green stormwater infrastructure research and practice in Southern California.
The unmooring of the world: a qualitative investigation of anomalous world experiences in schizophrenia

description: The Examination of Anomalous World Experience (EAWE) is a new, semi-structured phenomenological interview, which assesses six domains of experience: space and objects, time, other persons, language, atmosphere, and existential reorientation.   It was used to ascertain the experience of the lived world in 13 schizophrenia-spectrum and major-depression subjects, to determine whether and how the experience of the world differs between these two populations.  Transcriptions of these interviews were analyzed using a phenomenological qualitative analysis, which found a set of themes that were unique to schizophrenia subjects, namely Distorted appearances, Erosion of self-world boundaries, Shifting relevancies, Precarious reality, and Remoteness of the world.  It was determined that these themes were part of a common gestalt that can be termed the Unmooring of the World—a characterization consistent with classic and contemporary research on the gestalt of schizophrenia.  Subject responses further suggested that this unmooring may interfere with the ability of some persons with schizophrenia to fully describe their subjective experience in phenomenological interviews, although further research is necessary to confirm this.  Implications of these findings for qualitative research and psychotherapy interventions with persons with schizophrenia are considered.

Raising young children on the autism spectrum

description: Raising a child with autism generates a variety of issues for the family involved. It is a disorder that is particularly stressful for the family as a whole, and much research has shown elevated levels of stress in parents raising a child with autism (Dabrowska & Pisula, 2011; Lee, 2009). Past research has shown that social support (both formal and informal) has been able to reduce levels of parental stress. The purpose of the current research was to explore the relationship between parental stress and perceived social support while raising a young child with autism. The present study hypothesized that perceived social support would be negatively correlated with levels of parental stress of mothers raising a young child with autism. Participants were 25 mothers who had a child 10 years old or younger with an autism spectrum disorder. Mothers were asked to complete the Parenting Stress Index—Short Form IV (PSI-SF-IV), the Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC), the Family Support Scale (FSS), and a brief demographic questionnaire. Bivariate one-tailed correlational analyses showed medium-strength negative correlations between both the Formal and Informal Support total score on the FSS and the Total Stress Index on the PSI-SF-IV. Additionally, the Informal Support total score on the FSS was associated with decreased levels of parental stress on all three indices of the PSI-SF-IV: Parent-Child Dysfunctional Interaction, Difficult Child, and Total Stress. Results indicated that the more overall social support a mother perceives herself to receive, the lower her overall parental stress.
Genes Which Cause Increased Cellular DNA in Breast Cancer

description: The vast majority of human breast cancers have an increased, abnormal DNA content in each tumor cell. The normal amount of DNA, referred to as diploidy, consists of two copies of each gene on 23 pairs of chromosomes. Doubling of the normal amount of DNA in a cell is referred to as tetraploidy. Any other increase in DNA content is referred to as aneuploidy. The high frequency of increased ploidy in breast cancers suggests that events which increase the DNA content of cells (tetraploidy or aneuploidy) play a causative role in the genesis of some cancers. Our working hypothesis is that alterations in genes controlling DNA synthesis and cell division in the cell cycle are important for the development of human breast cancers.

 To date no vertebrate gene has been identified as having the potential to disrupt the cell cycle causing an increase in ploidy. A sensitive assay has been developed in yeast to identify genes which increase the DNA content of cells (Broek et. al. Nature 349:388-393, 1991). The yeast species used is one whose control of the cell cycle is remarkably similar to that of mammals. This species normally has one copy of each chromosome. In this assay, a single human gene is introduced into one yeast cell and each yeast cell is allowed to form a colony. Thus each colony will have one human gene added to its own genome. We propose to use this assay to screen for colonies, and thus genes from breast cancer, which increase the amount of DNA in yeast cells. The genes associated with an increase in the yeast cell DNA will be identified and characterized. We will also determine whether the identified genes can induce a DNA ploidy increase when active in human breast epithelial cells. Further, we will determine whether the identified genes have oncogenic potential or whether they are mutated in human breast tumor DNAs.

 The search for oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes has increased our understanding of breast cancer development. However, this understanding will continue to be incomplete until we understand the mechanism underlying the increased ploidy associated with most breast cancers. The lack of research concerning DNA ploidy increases has likely overlooked an important event(s) common to the genesis of the majority of breast cancers. The novel nature of this proposal and the lack of active research in this field, affecting the vast majority of breast cancers, provide an opportunity for significant advances in this important area of investigation. The lack of progress in this area of breast cancer pathogenesis is very likely due to the lack of a genetic assay for such genes in the past.
Clinician factors in interpreter-facilitated psychotherapy

description: In recent decades the number of persons in the US with limited English proficiency (LEP) has significantly increased.  Research shows that persons with LEP experience higher rates of psychological distress and that LEP poses a significant barrier to accessing mental health treatment.  As such, there is a growing need for psychotherapists to integrate foreign language interpreters into treatment.  However, research is extremely limited on the use of interpreters in psychotherapy.  Existing research focuses on challenges in treatment related to interpreter factors.  Therapist factors and their effect on interpreter-facilitated treatment remain relatively unexamined.  This study was undertaken to investigate how integrating interpreters into psychotherapy shifts the therapeutic process, with particular attention to therapist factors.  A qualitative research design combining ethnographic and grounded theory was used.  Eleven semi-structured interviews were conducted with psychologists experienced at conducting interpreter-facilitated therapy.  Five major research questions were addressed:  (1) How do therapists conceptualize interpreter-facilitated therapy in terms of the interpreter’s role, their relationship with the interpreter, and the interpreter’s relationship with the patient?  (2) To what extent do therapists acknowledge and engage with interpreters’ presence in interpreter-facilitated psychotherapy?  (3) What emotions do therapists experience in reaction to working with interpreters and to what extent do they reflect on and process these reactions?  (4) According to therapists, what should therapist training on interpreter-facilitated therapy entail? (5) Aside from interpreter factors, what challenges arise in interpreter-facilitated psychotherapy? The following qualitative themes emerged: the importance of on-going positive relationships between all therapy participants, clearly establishing the frame of therapy and defining roles, having regular pre-sessions and post-sessions, and therapist flexibility.  Other themes included: therapists’ conceptualizations of the interpreter’s role; therapists’ emotional reactions to working with interpreters; systemic barriers and limitations; the myth of interpreter neutrality; and the need for therapist training in interpreter-facilitated therapy.  The findings of this study suggest important implications for therapist training and practice, namely: the importance of being flexible; building collaborative relationships with interpreters; regularly communicating expectations and feedback with interpreters; and understanding the potential benefits of engaging the personhood of interpreters in the therapy process.

description: This dissertation documents the process of designing, implementing, and conducting a formative evaluation of an adjustment and developmental program for first year student-athletes in a Division I university setting, utilizing Maher's (2012) Program Planning and Evaluation framework. This program was provided to eight first year, out of season, student-athletes from the men's wrestling and women's gymnastics teams. The program’s purpose was to provide student-athlete participants with knowledge, skills, and abilities to facilitate the transition from high school academics and athletics to those of the college level. The program was implemented in the form of nine weekly workshops during September through December 2011. The formative evaluation of the program was conducted based on Maher’s (2012) framework which focused on obtaining information about how the program was implemented, identifying its strengths, and delineating areas for improvement. The evaluation of the program also sought to explore the reactions of the participating student-athletes, their coaches, and the university’s Assistant Athletic Director for Student-Athlete Development. The results of the formative evaluation indicated that the program participants found it personally beneficial in areas of academic, athletic, and personal functioning. One coach and the Assistant Athletic Director for Student-Athlete Development provided verbal feedback about the program, and indicated that they believed it useful for the participants. Participants indicated scheduling and voluntary attendance were problematic for one of the participating teams, and the coach stated that the belief that more practice of skills would be useful. The overall documentation of the implementation and evaluation of the program were it   revealed that it was needed, practical, and useful. Limitations are noted, and recommendations are provided for future design, implementation and evaluation of the program.

Range: Often house mice occur arable lands, pastures, coastal sand dunes, salt marshes and scrubby road verges (Macdonald & Barrett 1993). However, feral house mice are extremely rare in Korea (Won 1967). On the Korean Peninsula and islands, the distribution of M. musculus is closely associated with human habitations (Jo et al. 2012; Fig. 126).
Remarks: Suzuki et al. (2013) identified five distinct clades of house mouse; musculus in northern Eurasia; castanes in India and southeast Asia; an unspecified Nepali clade; domesticus in western Europe; and gentilulus in Yemen. Populations from Korea belong to the musculus clade. House mice in Korea originate from multiple and non-coincidental dispersals from the West (Suzuki et al. 2013). Three subspecies, M. m. yamashinai Kuroda, 1934 on the peninsula, M. m. molossinus Temminck, 1845 on Jeju Island and M. m. utsuryonis Mori, 1938 on Ulleung Island, have been described from Korea. Some taxa hybridize with different subspecies, including the Japanese house mouse (M. m. molossinus) (Yonekawa et al. 1998). DNA analysis supported either M. m. molossinus or M. m. musculus as the primary subspecies of house mouse for all of northeastern Asia, including Korea, northern China and Japan and therefore, Korean house mice are polymorphic (Yonekawa et al. 1998, Musser & Carleton 2005).

Range: The distribution of the harvest mouse covers the Korean Peninsula and Jeju Island (Fig. 127).
Remarks: Yasuda et al. (2005) identified five mtDNA clades across the species range (Europe; Russia; China; Taiwan; Korea-Japan). Abramov et al. (2009) divided the harvest mouse into two species (M. minutus in the northern part and M. erythrotis in the southern range). The higher nucleotide diversity in populations of Korea than Japan suggested that harvest mice crossed from Korea to Japan during the last glacial period (Yasuda et al. 2005). Two subspecies of M. minutus occur in Korea, M. m. ussuricus Kuroda, 1934 on the peninsula and M. m. hertigi Johnson and Jones 1955 on Jeju Island (Jo et al. 2012).
Conservation status: Incheon and Daejeon Metropolitan governments and Jeollanam Province, South Korea provide local protection for this species as a Provincially Protected Species.

description: Favored possibilities to reduce breast cancer mortality and associated suffering include 1) the accurate detection of cancer at an earlier stage when the arrest of tumor growth and/or metastasis is more often successful, 2) a more effective utilization of available therapies to prevent progression, and 3) the institution of new and improved prevention strategies. The proposed research in this application and its clinical implementation have the potential to advance all three approaches. Program goals are to investigate the potential of a new class of diagnostic drugs, macromolecular contrast media, and new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for improved detection and staging of breast carcinoma. The proposed MRI technique should provide high sensitivity and improved specificity for breast cancer detection over currently available detection methods. MRI, a technique which is decreasing in price and is becoming more widely available to the California patient population, offers several advantages over conventional radiographic mammography including absence of ionizing radiation, images in multiple planes, and superb soft tissue contrast; MRI is particularly beneficial for the 25% of women with radiographically dense breasts.

 Small vessels within cancers are known to have unique anatomic and functional features; the new MRI techniques under development provide a non-invasive method to detect these pathological microvascular characteristics. This project is relevant to the BCRP priority issues in several ways. Knowledge about breast cancer micro vessels can be clinically useful 1) to permit earlier detection and more accurate differentiation of cancers from other mass lesions, 2) to determine the aggressiveness and metastatic potential of an individual cancer and thus to more accurately predict the clinical course, and 3) to choose the most appropriate drugs to prevent progression based on micro vessel permeability. A further benefit of this research should be the better understanding of breast cancer biology and specifically of tumor angiogenesis (growth of new vessel into tumors), a process critical to uncontrolled growth and metastasis of cancer. Dynamic MRI contrast enhancement patterns in four mammary cancers, presenting a spectrum of aggressiveness, microvascular densities, and endothelial permeabilities, will be compared to each other and to normal tissues. MRI techniques will be correlated with measured invasiveness including pathology, accumulation of antineoplastic drugs, and tracer kinetics. To improve the quantitative aspects and clinical practicality of the MRI microvascular characterizations, new and faster MRI acquisition and data analysis techniques will be tested and compared. The project is multidisciplinary, requiring contributions in physics, chemistry, pharmacology, radiology, pathology and oncology.

The records for A. sylvaticus in Korea are based on specimens collected in the 1960s (Lee & Lim 1974). Since then, few were observed or collected, and the presence of A. sylvaticus in Korea appears questionable (Han 1994, 2004c). We regard these records as erroneous identifications of A. peninsulae. The identifications of A. sylvaticus were based on the presence of a long tail, long hind foot and long ears (especially the tail longer than the head-body length), but measurements overlapped those of A. peninsulae, previously a subspecies of A. sylvaticus and later a subspecies of A. speciosus. Also, the location of Korea is substantially beyond the eastern limit of the distribution for A. sylvaticus. Thus, we removed Apodemus (or Sylvaemus) sylvaticus (Linnaeus, 1758) from the list of Korean mammals.
Although some references used chejuensis as a subspecies of A. agrarius, we considered A. chejuensis a distinct species because a reproductive barrier was confirmed between the two species (Jo et al. 2017b). Thus, we list three species of Apodemus in Korea.

description: Waste by-products,, consisting of a solution of sulphuric acid and ferrous sulphate from an industrial plant in New Jersey, were dumped in a position approximately 11 nautical miles south of Ambrose Light between April 1948 and April 1949. Other nearby locations have been used since. Individuals and associations have objected to this practice contending that it jeopardized health, marine life, and important fisheries.To determine if these objections are tenable, the National Research Council has sponsored an investigation to find out the detrimental effects, if any, of these waste-products. There are parts of this investigation that cover several phases, but the present paper concerns only the possible drift of the waste-products. Drift bottles, which approximate the action of flotsam responsive to prevailing ocean currents, were used as indicators.
