description: Water column, sediment and pore water samples were collected from multiple locations of the Great Salt Lake (GSL), Utah to examine the spatial and temporal distribution of total mercury (THg) and methyl mercury (MeHg) concentrations and MeHg production potentials (MPPs). Sampling locations included multiple transects in the south arm of the GSL, adjacent freshwater influenced bays, and multiple impounded and sheet flow freshwater wetland sites during the period of summer 2009-summer 2012. Select water column and sediment subsamples were spiked with inorganic mercury (I204Hg) and methyl mercury (Me204Hg) to examine net production of methyl mercury (Me204Hg ) and net loss of Me201Hg. First order methylation (kmeth) and demethylation (kdemeth) rate constants were determined from changes in isotope dilution corrected concentrations and/or changes in isotope ratios as a function of time. Tin reducible inorganic Hg (Hg(II)R) was used as a proxy for bioavailable Hg(II) in GSL samples. MeHg production potentials (MPPs) were calculated as the time integrated product of kmeth and Hg(II)R to compare methylation in deep brine layer (DBL) versus underlying sediment slurry (SSL) samples of the GSL. A large range of methylation rate constants (1.4E-6 to 1.1E-3 hr-1) was observed across the region, whereas demethylation was only significant in the DBL. Positive correlation of kmeth to organic matter content was observed in sediment of the freshwater influenced bays and impounded wetlands, while this trend was not observed in DBL and SSL of the GSL. These results further indicate that sediment organic matter, as well as other factors (e.g., organic matter lability and sulfide concentrations) contribute to production of MeHg. Spatially, higher MeHg concentrations in the GSL and sheet flow freshwater wetlands present the possibility of ‘hot spots' for MeHg introduction into the food web. Greater and temporally constant MPPs in SSL relative to DBL may explain the persistence of high MeHg concentrations in the DBL.

Note. Ligyrus rugiceps LeConte, 1856 (p. 21) is mentioned as a subspecies of Euetheola humilis in Endrödi (1969a: 15, 1985a: 235) and considered a synonym of E. humilis in Ratcliffe et al. (2013: 278) and López- García et al. (2015: 463, 2016: 498). In Ratcliffe and Cave (2017: 128) this synonymy is revoked, with E. rugiceps believed to be a species endemic to the U.S.A. Based on Ratcliffe et al. (2013) and Ratcliffe and Cave (2017), Euetheola humilis has its northernmost limit in Mexico.

Interrelationships among water cycle fluxes and stores in a semi-arid urban environment
Creators: name: Augustus, Nicholas Walter
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: Hydrologic cycle

Urban ecology

description: This thesis research was performed to quantify and analyze the interrelationships among water cycle fluxes and stores in a semi-arid urban environment. In September 2007, a hydrologic observation network was installed in a residential area of the Salt Lake City metropolitan area to collect continuous observations of precipitation, dry and wet weather runoff, and soil moisture. In addition, companion studies in the same  catchment were simultaneously collecting evapotranspiration and water use data. For the  time period studied, precipitation was normal; conversely, the ratios of runoff to rainfall  (i.e., runoff coefficient) for the storm events observed were much smaller than expected  (0.04 for spring and fall months and 0.006 for summer months), with significant variability noted. Soil moisture was found to have at least a 20% variation between irrigated and nonirrigated areas, which can be expected; however, the increase of nonirrigated soil moisture in response to rainfall was surprisingly small. Dry weather runoff  was found to be nearly 8% of the total outflow volume (wet weather plus dry weather),  and outdoor water use was shown to influence soil moisture, which in turn was observed  to influence the evapotranspiration rate. The continuous observations quantified several  uncertain fluxes and stores in semi-arid cities and identified relationships among stores  and fluxes useful for developing predictive models of the interactions among urban  hydrologic fluxes, stores, and climate.

Investigation of the tunable nature of resonance wavelength and near-field distribution of plasmonic nanocrescents
Creators: name: Barnes, Cara Michelle
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2013

description: Plasmonic nanocrescents have been of interest due to their unique optical properties and relative ease of fabrication, as well as their potential applications in surface enhanced spectroscopies. In order to engineer nanocrescents as optimized substrates for these applications, a good understanding of the nanostructure - optical response relationship is necessary. This thesis research focused on understanding the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelength dependence on nanocrescent structural details, such as backbone width, arrayed assemblies, and size. The work presented here shows that the LSPR wavelength can be tuned through a wide spectral region through control of the physical structure of the nanocrescent. This thesis research also focused on understanding the polarization-dependent near-field distribution of the various plasmon resonance modes that arise due to structural asymmetry. The near-field distributions for the short- and long-axis dipoles were mapped through enhanced, localized photopolymerization of photoresist.

description: The Newfoundland Mountains consist of a single north-south trending range, located in the midst of the Great Salt Lake Deserts west of Great Salt Lake. A well exposed section of Paleozoic rocks in excess of 15,700 feet thick is present. This includes 2000+ feet of Upper ? Cambrian, 5500+ feet of Ordovician, 1313± feet of Silurian, 4200+ feet of Devonian, and 2900+ feet of Permian.    Deposits of Mississippian and Pennsylvanian age are absent, and rocks of Permia age lie on Upper Devonian beds with profound unconformity.  Precambrian, Mesozoic and Tertiary rocks are not exposed in the range.    A basal conglomerate of Leonardian age is present, and suggests a period of uplift and erosion in the Newfoundland Mountains region.    Structurally, the range consists of a westward inclined homoclinal block. High-angle normal faults are the dominant structural features in the area, and two prominent fault systems are recognized: one trends east-west and represents two periods of movement; the other trends north-south, with movement between the two periods of east-west faulting.    The northern part of the region was intruded by a quartz monzonite pluton presumably in Late Laramide time, and metamorphism and minera ization of the sediments occurred.

description: Through providing support with training, coaching, and funding, Utah‘s Academic, Behavior & Coaching Initiative (ABC-UBI) program strives to assist schools with the implementation of evidence-based practices for both positive behavior support as well as academic instruction. As an increasing number of schools participate in the ABC-UBI program, the goal of this study was to determine what kind of a difference ABC-UBI participation makes for student and staff outcomes. Specifically, this study tested for differences in staff perceptions of the Response to Intervention (RTI) model, the degree of school-wide Positive Behavior Support implementation, school climate, and academic outcomes on the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS) and end-of-year Criterion-referenced tests. Of the 17 areas measured, ABC-UBI schools performed better than non-ABC-UBI schools in 16 areas. With sample sizes of only 2 in each group, statistical significance was nearly impossible to attain, but in spite of limited statistical significance, ABC-UBI participation resulted in large effect sizes. Future directions for research and practice are discussed herein.

Evolution of crypsis in feather lice

Lice

description: Crypsis is the color resemblance of an animal to its background such that predators have difficulty in distinguishing it. Although a great deal is known about crypsis in free-ranging insects, crypsis in ectoparasites is still poorly understood. Among  ectoparasites, feather lice provide a unique chance to test whether ectoparasites are cryptically colored. Most feather lice are host specific and the major host defense against them is preening, a presumably visual process. Therefore, crypsis might be selectively advantageous for feather lice to escape from host defense. In this thesis, I use a comparative approach and an experimental approach to test for crypsis in feather lice. I  investigate the correlation between louse color and host color. The data show that the color of congeneric lice is correlated with host colors while colors of head lice, which a bird cannot preen, are not. This suggests that feather lice are cryptically colored. I conducted experiments to test for crypsis using different color morphs of Rock Pigeons and their lice. I did not find evidence of crypsis from my experiments. Crypsis may  simply not be important in Rock Pigeon lice. I show that feather lice do not reflect much  ultraviolet using the reflectance spectra of pigeon lice. This thesis provides the first rigorous test of crypsis in ectoparasites.

Increasing the Detection of Adverse Drug Events in Pediatric Patients
Creators: name: Atkinson, Sterling Dwight
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2014

description: Patient safety has received unprecedented attention over the past decade. Some of that attention has been focused on the occurrence and prevention of harm from Adverse Drug Events (ADEs). Between 19 and 61 percent of ADEs are preventable. In order to prevent ADEs, they must first be detected. Several methods have been used to detect ADEs, including voluntary reporting, intensified surveillance, and computerized monitoring. Computerized monitoring has been shown to be complimentary to other methods in detecting ADEs. However, very little research has been completed on this method in pediatrics. Pediatric patients pose unique challenges and risks because of physiological immaturity, lack of testing and information on medications, availability of appropriate medication formulations and strengths, and incomplete cognitive and communication development. This study examined the modification and implementation of an adult computerized ADE monitoring tool at one pediatric medical center. It was implemented into the daily practice of pharmacy operations without increasing the pharmacy resources. Pharmacists printed daily reports containing alerts of possible ADEs. They investigated each of the alerts and noted whether an ADE occurred and how much time was needed to investigate. The main objective of this study was to increase the detection of ADEs in the pediatric population. iv Over the 12-week study, 181 ADEs were identified via the computerized monitoring tool. An additional 88 ADEs were voluntarily reported. Overall, this represented a rate of 6.6 ADEs per 100 admissions and 14.8 ADEs per 1,000 patient days. This result represented a significant increase in the detection of ADEs (p<0.0001) as compared to the same timeframe from the previous year. The computerized monitoring tool had a positive predictive value (PPV) of 4.8 percent. It took an average of 6.1 minutes to investigate alerts associated with an ADE, which was significantly higher than the time it took to investigate alerts not associated with an ADE (p<0.0001). Of the ADEs found with this tool, 10.5 percent were considered preventable. The use of a modified computerized ADE monitoring tool in the pediatric environment increased the overall detection of ADEs and warrants continued research.

Chalepus nasutus Burmeister 1847: 83 (French Guiana)
= Oxyligyrus (Oxyligyrus) cayennensis Endrödi 1972: 23 (French Guiana) - Dupuis 2017b: 86 (syn. nov.)
Distribution. Guyana: López-García et al. 2016: 500 (as O. cayennensis). French Guiana: Burmeister 1847: 83 (as Chalepus nasutus); Endrödi 1969a: 29 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus), 1972: 23 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) cayennensis), 1985a: 240 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) cayennensis; as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus); Duranton 2011: 19 (as O. cayennensis; as O. nasutus); Ponchel 2011: 61 (as O. cayennensis); Brûlé and Dalens 2012a annex 4: 18 (as O. cayennensis); López-García et al. 2015: 466 (as O. cayennensis), 2016: 500 (as O. cayennensis; as O. nasutus); Dupuis 2016b: 110 (as O. cayennensis), 2017b: 86. “Guianas”: Arrow 1937b: 39; Blackwelder 1944: 255. Brazil: Endrödi 1966b: 532 (designation NEOTYPE Chalepus nasutus [> Oxyligyrus endroedii Dupuis, 2017]), 1969a: 29 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus), 1985a: 240 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus); López-García et al. (2016: 500). Other: Endrödi 1969a: 29 (Paraguay - as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus), 1985a: 240 (Paraguay - as O. (Oxyligyrus) nasutus); Ponchel 2011: 61 (not mentioned - as O. nasutus); López-García et al. 2015: 466 (Colombia - as O. cayennensis), 2016: 500 (Colombia - as O. cayennensis; Paraguay - as O. nasutus); Dupuis 2016b: 110 (not mentioned - as O. nasutus).
Note 1. According to Dupuis (2017b: 88), the designation of a neotype of Chalepus nasutus by Endrödi (1966: 532) is invalid as the holotype has been recovered in the MNHN. Endrödi’s neotype of C. nasutus belongs in fact to a new species from southern Brazil, Oxyligyrus endroedii Dupuis, 2017 (2017b: 89).
Given the previous, it seems likely that all specimens of O. nasutus from Brazil and Paraguay mentioned by Endrödi (1966b, 1969a: 29, 1985a: 240) and López-García et al. (2016: 500) (who cite Endrödi (1985a)) belong to the newly described O. endroedii.
The specimens of O. cayennensis from Colombia mentioned by López-García et al. (2015: 466, 2016: 500) appear to belong, based on the drawings of their genitalia, to the true O. nasutus.
Note 2. The record of Oxyligyrus nasutus (mentioned as O. cayennensis) from Guyana in López-García et al. (2016: 500) appears to be erroneous, as they mention their sole data source is existing literature while Guyana is not mentioned in the literature they cite for this species. As far as the research area is concerned, this species is only known from French Guiana.

Heparin releasing thermosensitive hydrogels
Creators: name: Gutowska, Anna
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: Pharmacology

description: Thermosensitive hydrogels (TSH) based on N-isopropyl acrylamide (NiPAAm) were synthesized and investigated as heparin releasing polymers for the prevention of surface induced thrombosis. The rationale of using TSH as heparin releasing polymers is based on the unique, temperature dependent swelling of these materials. Below the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) NiPAAm based TSH gels exhibit high swelling that allow for simple solution sorption loading of hydrophilic macromolecules, such as heparin. Above the LCST, e.g., at body temperature, NiPAAm gels deswell abruptly and release absorbed macromolecules. The release process is controlled initially by the deswelling kinetics the gels (mechanical squeezing of drug) and subsequently by diffusion of macromolecules within the dense polymer network.  TSH were synthesized as: 1) crosslinked NiPAAm copolymers with butyl methacrylate (BMA), acrylamide (AAm) and/or acrylic acid (AAc); 2) crosslinked NiPAAm copolymer coatings; 3) semiinterpenetrating polymer networks (semi-IPNs) containing NiPAAm and copoly(ether-urethane-urea) (Biomer); 4) and Biomer/poly(NiPAAm) polymer blend coatings.  Equilibrium swelling and deswelling kinetics of the synthesized gels were examined at various temperatures.  Heparin loading into the different gels was studied as a function of temperature, solution concentration, and gel composition. The partition coefficients of heparin within the networks decreased with increasing temperature and gel hydrophobicity. The release kinetics of heparin correlated with the networks deswelling kinetics and were found to be influenced by gel composition and loading temperature.  The shortterm antithrombogenicity of intravenous polyurethane catheters coated with Biomer/poly(NiPAAm) thermosensitive coatings was evaluated in a canine animal model after room temperature heparin loading.  It was shown that heparin release from Biomer/poly(NiPAAm) coated surfaces resulted in a significant reduction of thrombus formation on test surfaces in contact with venous blood as compared to control surfaces.  The results obtained in this study demonstrate the feasibility of macromolecular loading and release from NiPAAm based TSH, including the novel thermosensitive Biomer/poly(NiPAAm) semi-IPNs and Biomer/poly(NiPAAm) thermosensitive coatings.

MondoA and Mlx: two novel members of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family of transcription factors

description: Max functions at the center of a transcriptional network involving interaction with either the Myc family of transcriptional activators or the Mad family of transcriptional repressors. This Myc/Max/Mad network is a key regulator of cell growth, proliferation and the transition to differentiation. Members of this network contain the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper domain (BHLHZip) that mediates dimerization and DNA binding to the CACGTG subclass of E-box elements. Mlx, a novel Max-like protein, has been recently characterized. Mlx interacts with a subset of the Mad family members, Mad1 and Mad4. Like Max, Mlx is a widely and stably expressed BHLHZip protein that heterodimerizes with Mad1 and Mad4 to bind the CACGTG binding sites. Mad1:Mlx heterodimers can repress transcription and like Mad1:Max heterodimers, this repression is dependent on dimerization, DNA binding, and recruitment of the Sin3 corepressor complex. Like Max, Mlx also interacts with a family of transcriptional activators, the Mondo family of BHLHZip proteins. MondoA does not readily form homodimers, but preferentially heterodimerizes with Mlx and binds CACGTG E-boxes. In contrast to the nuclear localization of Myc, Max and Mad, MondoA and Mlx localize to the cytoplasm of all mammalian cell lines tested. MondoA:Mlx can activate transcription when targeted to the nucleus by a heterologous nuclear localization signal. Regulation of MondoA and Mlx subcellular localization appears to be a critical means of regulating the transcriptional activity of the heterodimer. MondoA and Mlx contain a C-terminal conserved region that plays a role in cytoplasmic localization. This domain, found only in Mlx and Mondo family members, is also a novel heterodimerization domain. Dimerization of MondoA and Mlx inactivates the cytoplasmic localization activity of this DCL (dimerization and cytoplasmic localization) domain. The heterodimer remains cytoplasmic due to the activity of a N-terminal cytoplasmic localization domain within MondoA. This domain, which includes a CRM1-dependent nuclear export signal, a 14-3-3 binding site and other cytoplasmic localization activity, is inactivated presumably by a signaling event. This regulatory complexity suggests that MondoA:Mlx regulates an important cellular function.

Oxyligyrus (Oxyligyrus) peruanus Endrödi 1966b: 530 (Brazil)
Distribution. Guyana: López-García et al. 2016: 500. French Guiana: Duranton 2011: 20; Ponchel 2011: 61. Brazil: Endrödi 1966b: 530 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) peruanus), 1969a: 28 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) peruanus), 1985a: 239 (as O. (Oxyligyrus) peruanus); López-García et al. 2016: 500. Other: Dupuis 2016b: 106 (not mentioned); López-García et al. 2016: 500 (Peru).
Note 1. López-García et al. (2016: 500) mention Guyana as part of the distributional range of Oxyligyrus peruanus, but this is erroneous; based on the cited literature, which they name as their sole data source, the location should be French Guiana rather than Guyana. However, Dupuis (2016b: 106) compares the types of O. champenoisi and O. peruanus, gives differentiating features between these often-commingled species and removes O. peruanus from the list of species occurring in French Guiana. Because we are unaware of any other records of this species for the research area, we regard this species as not occurring there.
Note 2. It should be noted that the name Oxyligyrus peruanus is given to this species by Endrödi (1966b: 530) although he only records it from the state of Pará in Brazil. In Endrödi (1969a: 28) it is mentioned that the name is an error, and that the species remains unrecorded for Peru. Ratcliffe et al. (2015: 202) list this species for Peru, but given the distance between the type locality and Peru and the fact that we have found no actual Peruvian records for this species in their cited literature, we suspect that Ratcliffe et al. (2015) have included this species based on its name rather than on collecting data. We have found no original records for this species other than those given by Endrödi (1966b) and the ones from French Guiana in Duranton (2011: 20) and Ponchel (2011: 61), which are refuted by Duranton (2016b) as mentioned in the previous note. We thus assume this species to be restricted to the state of Pará, from where it is described.

description: The reactivity of the cyano group at the 5-position of the pyrrolopyrimidine nucleosides has been studied with various groups in the 4- and/or 6-positions. The susceptibility of the cyano group toward nucleophilic substitution under basic conditions as influenced by amino groups was found to be in the order: no amino group at positions 4 or 6>4-amino>6-amino>4,6-diamino. The decreased reactivity of the amino substituted derivatives is due to electron release by the amino groups.  During the investigation of the reaction of 4-chloro-5-cyano-7-(B-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine with methyl hydrazine, a new tricyclic nucleoside, 6-amino-4-methyl-8-(B-D-ribofuranosyl)(4H ,8H)-pyrrolo[4,3,2-de]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine, was synthesized. Subsequent studies showed that the intermediate was 5-cyano-4-N-l-methylhydrazino-7-(3-D-riboguranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine and cyclized in situ to the tricyclic derivative.

Note. Oxyligyrus rostratus is described as probably from Guyana (= “Guianas”) by Burmeister (1847: 82), with Endrödi (1966b: 527) designating the lectotype. However, Duranton (2011: 13) saw no specimens which were definitely from French Guiana, and the species is not mentioned by Ponchel (2011) and Dupuis (2016b). So far, we have not seen specimens from Suriname, nor have we found any records from other parts of the research area. The distribution of this species appears to be more southern, and we regard it as not occurring in the research area.

description: Risk factors for colon (or colorectal) cancer mortality for American Indians/Alaska Natives (AI/AN) has been understudied. This project's overall aim is to determine colon and colorectal cancer risk factors among AI/AN. Colorectal cancer risk factors from the literature were determined utilizing systematic review methods. Comorbidities, travel times to screening and treatment, were also explored as risk factors for colon cancer mortality using cox proportional hazards modeling to determine hazard ratios. The systematic review revealed that race was the only risk factor explored for colon or colorectal cancer among AI/AN, whereas numerous colon or colorectal cancer risk factors have been explored for Non-Hispanic Whites (NHW). Next was examining risk for colon cancer mortality by building models. An increasing Charlson comorbidity index had higher risk for mortality among NHW. Models examining travel times that were race specific resulted in greater risk for AI/AN and mortality for those having to travel longer to a chemotherapy facility. Longer travel time to a screening facility increased NHW risk for mortality. NWH increased travel time to a surgical center had a decreased risk for mortality. The regional and distant stage model showed that AI/AN living a distance from chemotherapy had increased risk for mortality. For NHW, living a distance from a screening facility had increased mortality. The all stage model for NHW showed that living further to a screening facility increased mortality risk but living further from a surgical center decreased one's risk for mortality.
