The Effectiveness of the Role of Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships (CDRPs) to Manage Social Cohesion in the Interest of the Public’s Health Across Communities in the UK
Creators: name: Nauth, Angela
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: Community safety features prominently in modern societies, particularly in the West. In the United Kingdom (UK), much emphasis is placed on the concept of “community”. Beginning in the late 1990’s, Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships (CDRPs) were tasked with the job of reducing crime, increasing quality of life and reaching out to disengaged communities. The foremost reason for the creation of CDRPs is to encourage community discourse at the local level and to enable the community to be a part of the decision making process in matters that would affect them. However, there is very little evidence that communities are engaged; this conclusion is marred by the fact that there has been no comprehensive assessment of this community dialog and decision-making process within CDRPs. CDRPs continue to function throughout the UK despite the aforementioned shortcomings. Inequality in public health and resources available to early immigrants, in particular Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups in the UK were as a result of racism. This manifested itself through institutional racism. Unfortunately, this inequality led to the breakdown of entire communities. The resolve of BMEs to riot over the past five decades has been an attempt to get recognition of the social injustice that they have been subject to. CDRPS would also come to include Safer Communities Teams (SCTs) created specifically to manage hate crime. This included addressing matters of racism in communities, as a result of ongoing institutional prejudice and injustice. This paper will outline the path to social cohesion within a multicultural society as dictated under the leadership of the British New Labour government. Social cohesion has been bolstered through CDRPs using the policy framework of New Labour. This document will address social cohesiveness as it pertains to the health of a nation. CDRPs have been tasked with the responsibility to ensure safe and healthy communities. There will also be an account of the first-hand experience of the function and nature of a CDRP. This will be from an insider’s point of view; a reflection based on experience against the most recent Framework that the CDRPs are currently working towards.

Pavel Florenskij and the Armenian Destiny
Creators: name: Ferrari, Aldo
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2015

description: This paper examines the Armenian side of the well-known Russian theologian and scientist Pavel Florenskij (1882-1937). His mother belonged to a noble family from Karabakh, but because of her particular personal and family situation she did not give her son an Armenian education. Therefore Florenskji grew up with Russian, rather than Armenian, culture. Nevertheless, in the second part of his life he paid great attention to his Armenian origin, mainly from the genealogical point of view. However, in his letters to his children – partially written in Soviet lagers, where in the end he was shot – Pavel Florenskij revealed an attitude of substantial, though painful, extraneousness to his Armenian identity; an attitude stemming not only from his unique family situation, but also from a certain underestimation of the vitality of a people able to withstand even the toughest tests in history.

Elder Food Safety Initiative: A Review of the Home Meal Delivery Process in Tribal Elder Nutrition Programs
Creators: name: Hom, Andrea L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2005

description: Introduction Indian Health Service, Reno District, Environmental Health Services staff developed an initiative to assess food safety risk among home meal recipients at seven participating tribal elder nutrition programs (ENPs). Traditionally, the home delivery process could significantly increase the risk of foodbome illness if inappropriate practices were being followed. Methods: The initiative included two assessment phases. The first assessment phase consisted of identifying food safety risks during the home delivery meal process and other operational issues related to the ENP. The second assessment involved administering a questionnaire to participants of the ENP in an effort to obtain information regarding elder food safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Results: Eleven delivery processes, representing 7 ENPs, were assessed and had an average delivery time of 1.6 hours. Twenty-five potentially hazardous foods (PHFs) were monitored. By the end of delivery, 76% of PHFs were below the hot holding temperatures recommended by the Food Drug Administration. Fourteen critical control point (e.g., point or procedure in a food system at which a control can be applied and a food safety hazard prevented) failures were identified and included such deficiencies as failure to check and document final cooking temperatures (100%), failure to monitor the temperature of food received from a food distributor (100%), failure to monitor and document food temperatures during delivery (86%), and failure to monitor food temperatures after food purchase and transport (80%). Also, 29% of the ENPs were entering homes to leave meals when clients were away and 29% of the ENPs routinely left meals outside the client's home in a cooler or milk crate. One hundred and seventy eight questionnaires (51% return rate) were completed. Findings revealed that 27% do not eat their meals immediately upon receipt, 23% had their meals left outside, and 13% had their meals left on the kitchen counter. Also, 93% of elders were unable to identify foods to avoid to reduce food safety risk. Conclusion: Based on the site assessments, ENPs should implement and adhere to standard operating procedures to address critical control points in their processes. They should also purchase the Nutri-System thermal bags, recently available on the market, as they can maintain 185° F during transport. Meals should not be left at the client's door or inside the home when the client is not at home. Rather a backup plan (i.e., support network) should be available and food safety education should be provided to all. In addition, further studies should be conducted with an emphasis on what happens to the meal once delivered.

Primary Medication Adherence in the Rural South: The Role of the Physician-Patient Relationship and Satisfaction with Care
Creators: name: Wroth, Tom, MD
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2004

description: Background: Medication non adherence leads to increased morbidity and mortality and undermines the ability of clinicians to provide effective care. While the relationship between medication adherence and demographic, socioeconomic and clinical factors has been well studied, it is unclear whether a strong physician-patient relationship and satisfaction with care may improve medication adherence. Furthermore, medication adherence has not been specifically evaluated in the rural South. Design and Participants: This is a cross sectional study using data from the Southern Rural Access Program evaluation, which surveyed adults in 9 rural states via random digit dialing from November 2002 until July 2003. Respondents that had seen a health care provider in the past year were included in the analysis. Measurements: Respondents were asked whether they had delayed or not gotten a prescription filled in the last year. Elsewhere on the questionnaire, they were also asked about their satisfaction with, confidence in, and their length of relationship with their regular provider. Bivariate and multivariable analyses were used to identifY factors associated with individuals filling their prescriptions. Results: The mean age of our sample was 46 years, 68% were white, 19% had less than a high school education, and 22.7% were uninsured. Of the 3,926 respondents that had visited a provider in the past year, 793 (20%) reported that they delayed or did not fill a prescription. After multivariable modeling, individuals less than 65 years old (OR 2.9, CI[95%] 2.00, 4.24), male (OR 1.3, CI[95%] 1.05, 1.66), income less than $25,000 (OR 1.8, CI[95%] 1.16, 2.69), more educated (OR 1.4, CI[95%] 1.06, 1.92), uninsured (OR 1.4, CI[95%] 1.09, 1.89), insured under Medicare (OR 1.81, CI[95%] 1.25, 2.63), and in fair or poor health (OR 1.4, CI[95%] 1.13, 1.81) were less likely to have filled a prescription, after controlling for all other variables. Respondents that had a regular source of care (OR 0.4, CI[95%] 0.22, 0.88), a longer relationship with their doctor (OR 0.8, CI[95%] 0.64, 1.01), and were satisfied with the concern shown by their doctor (OR 0.60, CI[95%] 0.38, 0.94) were more likely to have filled their prescriptions. Those that were concerned about the cost of health care (OR 2.6, CI[95%] 2.05, 3.18) or had problems with transportation (OR 1.7, CI[95%] 1.25, 2.31) were less likely to have filled their prescriptions. Individuals who believed in going to the doctor early in the course of illness and for regular check ups (OR 0.7, CI[95%] 0.49, 0.93) were more likely to have filled their prescriptions. Conclusions: Primary medication non adherence is common in the rural South. Satisfaction with concern shown by the physician, having a regular source of care, and having a longer relationship with a physician are associated with better medication adherence.
The Apprehensive in Russian and Bulgarian

Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2015

description: The apprehensive meaning (“anxiety about a possible undesirable situation”) is expressed in various ways in the world’s many languages. This paper compares how this meaning Is expressed in two Slavic languages, namely: Russian and Bulgarian. In Russian the apprehensive is considered to be primarily marked by the kak by ne construction (Dobrušina 2006). Some non-specific forms and locutions are also employed to convey this meaning. This paper mainly focuses on how the apprehensive meaning is expressed in the Bulgarian language. It is argued that Bulgarian has a special marker of the apprehensive: the compound particle da ne bi. The paper points out that in dependent clauses the da ne bi structure is always the marker of the apprehensive, while in independent utterances it is also vested with other modal functions. The parallel Russian-Bulgarian corpus has been used as the source for an adjusted list of the Russian correspondences for the Bulgarian marker da ne bi. The corpus-based approach yielded an extensive range of means of expression of the apprehensive in Russian. On the other hand, the syntactic constraints on the use of the Bulgarian da ne bi drastically limit the usage of this Bulgarian apprehensive marker as the means of rendering the Russian kak by ne construction in translation.

description: Hyperfine structure $A$ and $B$ factors of the atomic $5s\,5p\,\; ^3\rm{P}_2 \rightarrow 5s\,6s\,\; ^3\rm{S}_1$ transition are determined from collinear laser spectroscopy data of $^{107-123}$Cd and $^{111m-123m}$Cd. Nuclear magnetic moments and electric quadrupole moments are extracted using reference dipole moments and calculated electric field gradients, respectively. The hyperfine structure anomaly for isotopes with $s_{1/2}$ and $d_{5/2}$ nuclear ground states and isomeric $h_{11/2}$ states is evaluated and a linear relationship is observed for all nuclear states except $s_{1/2}$. This corresponds to the Moskowitz-Lombardi rule that was established in the mercury region of the nuclear chart but in the case of cadmium the slope is distinctively smaller than for mercury. In total four atomic and ionic levels were analyzed and all of them exhibit a similar behaviour. The electric field gradient for the atomic $5s\,5p\,\; ^3\mathrm{P}_2$ level is derived from multi-configuration Dirac-Hartree-Fock calculations in order to evaluate the spectroscopic nuclear quadrupole moments. The results are consistent with those obtained in an ionic transition and based on a similar calculation.

description: Soil contamination with TEs around mining areas without monitoring and risk assessment has serious human health implications. Soil samples were collected around the Abakaliki Pb-Zn mine sites. Lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), chromium (Cr), barium (Ba), rubidium (Rb), strontium (Sr) and major oxides were analyzed by X-ray fluorescence technique. Acidity (pH), redox potential (Eh), electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids (TDS) were analyzed using pH/conductivity meter. The mean value of pH (6.4) reflects moderately acidic soils, while means of 422, 182 and 295 mg kg− for EC, TDS and Eh, respectively, indicated less conductive soils. Zn obtained the highest mean (42023 mg kg−) and Cr the least (14.8 mg kg−). Silicon (iv) oxide (SiO2) recorded the highest mean of 44.7 mg kg− while chromium oxide (Cr2O3) had the least mean (0.02 mg kg−). Strong positive correlation among Pb, Zn and Mn indicated that they had a common source. Principal component analysis (PCA) indicated that sources of elements are from weathering of galena and sphalerite deposits. Pb means for contamination factor (Cf), geo accumulation index (Igeo), potential ecological risk (EiR) and potential ecological risk index (IR) are 726, 4.8, 3632 and 4120, respectively. The results show that the soil in the region has reached the heavily extremely contaminated level and very high risk level. Ingestion is the major pathway for non-carcinogenic risk, and children are more vulnerable to carcinogenic risk than adults. Hazard quotient (HQ) and total hazard index (HI) values in few locations showed the possibility of humans contracting cancer. Lifetime average daily dose (LADD) values of carcinogenic risk (9.12 × 10−6, 2.3 × 10−6 and 3.92 × 10−5) exceeded the upper and lower limits of 1 × 10−4 and 1 × 10−6. This study is invaluable in assessing ecological and health risk in agricultural soils around mining areas.
Development of an Orthopedic Trauma Score to Predict Mortality in Low and Middle Income Countries in Sub-Sahara Africa: Improving Outcome and Efficient Resource Use
Creators: name: Warmack, Tyler
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Background: Despite the huge burden of disease in low to middle income countries (LMICs), trauma, especially orthopedic trauma, has not been well studied. Furthermore, trauma scores in LMICs have had variable levels of success and are often applied retrospectively to show potential applicability. The Kampala Trauma Score, KTS, and the Revised Trauma Score, RTS, were both tested as an outcome predictive tool in Kamuzu Central Hospital (KCH) in Lilongwe Malawi but were found not to be strong enough predictors of mortality to be clinically useful. In this paper I propose a research plan to identify risk factors associated with orthopedic injuries that will aid in creating a simple orthopedic trauma score that can be tested in LMICs. Methods: I include patients with orthopedic injuries and exclude any patients with burn, penetrating, or head injuries. I will use appropriate univariate analysis, bivariate analysis, and logistic regression to determine odds ratios and measure the association with certain patterns of orthopedic injuries. Using this data I will develop a simple orthopedic trauma score that can be tested at KCH and potentially other LMICs as a predictor for mortality. Anticipated Results: I am doing a retrospective (secondary data analysis) of prospectively collected data from the KCH Trauma Surveillance Registry from 2008 to 2014 (n = 8914). I anticipate there will be a difference in mortality among those with different types of fracture, pelvic being the most fatal. Additionally, the odds of death will be higher with patients who have multiple fractures. The orthopedic trauma score will include injury location, severity, and patient characteristics that will yield a percent chance of mortality based on score. Conclusions: Orthopedic injuries are likely underestimated as a cause of morbidity and mortality in LMICs and specifically in Malawi. Orthopedic trauma scores could be easy to implement and improve population outcomes leading to a more efficient use of limited resources.

description: Since 1988, the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) indicates a statistical increase in obesity regardless of sex or age. A contributing factor of this obesogenic environment is characterized, in part, by increased food intake and physical inactivity. Targeting these behaviors through policy and environmental changes holds the potential to effectively address and reverse the obesity epidemic. In particular, American worksites have the potential for improving the health and productivity of workers through the promotion of physical activity within and around the worksite. However, the guiding principles and practices that employers are currently using are not fully understood. This report outlines the rationale and evidence for targeting overweight and obesity through a focus on physical activity, particularly the integration of physical activity into the workplace culture. This report presents a conceptual model for assimilating physical activity into the workplace environment. Third, an application of this conceptual model is applied using NC Prevention Partners' WorkHealthy America5 M (WHA) 1 to comparatively assess the physical activity worksite guidelines and practices among a pilot sample of North Carolina organizations. Lastly, recommendations for the field of public health are delineated in an effort to guide real and substantive change for the American public facing the obesity epidemic.

description: Thermal modification of blended feedstocks has recently gained popularity, due to its importance in improving biochar yield and features, such as pore structure and adding extra functional groups than pristine ones and thus improving adsorption effectiveness against a range of pollutants. In this study, the biochar made up of blended bamboo sawdust and rice husk has been investigated on its effectiveness on Cd2+ sorption processes controlling the accessibility and mobility of this metal in agro-soil. In a set of batch experiments, the effect of a 10% w/w biochar (carbonized at 400°C and 700°C) to soil ratio at various blending ratios (1:1, 1:3, and 3:1) on the adsorption and desorption characteristics of Cd2+ in agricultural clay soil incubated for 60 days was investigated. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms were also studied to examine adsorption mechanism at pH of 8, initial solute concentration 200 mg/L, ionic strength of 0.01 M (NaNO3), Contact time of 180 min, and adsorbent dosage of 0.1 g. For adsorption kinetics, pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, elovich, and intra-particle diffusion models were fitted, while Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin Radushkevich models were fitted in isotherm study. According to the findings, increasing the carbonization temperature (400–700°C) boosted the effectiveness of cadmium removal substantially (70–96%), the best adsorption capacity of 130 mg/g was obtained at 700°C. Meanwhile, the removal efficiency of biochar blending ratios was not significantly different. Similarly, as the carbonization temperature was increased, the rate of Cd2+ adsorption increased dramatically, whereas the rate of Cd2+ desorption dropped. Langmuir isotherm adsorption model and Pseudo-second order kinetic model were found to fit best (R2 = 0.99) on isotherm and kinetics studies, respectively. It can be concluded that employing blended feedstock biochar could improve soil immobilization efficiency for Cd2+ in agricultural fields.

description: We study the dynamics of photonic quantum circuits consisting of nodes coupled by quantum channels. We are interested in the regime where time delay in communication between the nodes is significant. This includes the problem of quantum feedback, where a quantum signal is fed back on a system with a time delay. We develop a matrix product state approach to solve the Quantum Stochastic Schrödinger Equation with time delays, which accounts in an efficient way for the entanglement of nodes with the stream of emitted photons in the waveguide, and thus the non-Markovian character of the dynamics. We illustrate this approach with two paradigmatic quantum optical examples: two coherently driven distant atoms coupled to a photonic waveguide with a time delay, and a driven atom coupled to its own output field with a time delay as an instance of a quantum feedback problem.

Year: 2023

description: This article focuses on frontline managers (FLM) who, until recently, have been neglected as key actors in the implementation of human resource management policies and subsequent employee performance outcomes. This research finds that FLMs are not a homogenous entity who act as robotic conformists, but rather evolve and become important agents shaping organisational performance outcomes and worker effort. The article extends social exchange theory to present a ‘zone of reciprocity’ that refines understanding of the causal chain between different FLM styles, HR policy and employee performance outcomes of organisational citizenship behaviour and commitment. The data are survey responses from 613 employees who all work and report to specific FLM in a single medical device multi-divisional organisation. The article offers new theory development as well as implications for practitioners interested in FLM and the HR performance causal chain.

description: We investigate the superfluid behavior of a Bose-Einstein condensate of $^6$Li molecules. In the experiment by Weimer et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 095301 (2015) a condensate is stirred by a weak, red-detuned laser beam along a circular path around the trap center. The rate of induced heating increases steeply above a velocity $v_c$, which we define as the critical velocity. Below this velocity, the moving beam creates almost no heating. In this paper, we demonstrate a quantitative understanding of the critical velocity. Using both numerical and analytical methods, we identify the non-zero temperature, the circular motion of the stirrer, and the density profile of the cloud as key factors influencing the magnitude of $v_c$. A direct comparison to the experimental data shows excellent agreement.

Primary care physicians' use of the 5 A's to counsel adolescents about alcohol use

description: Background: Despite reductions in underage drinking in the United States since the 1980s, adolescent alcohol use remains a significant burden to public health. Multiple clinical guidelines recommend screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) for adult alcohol misuse in primary care, but there is no consensus about this practice with adolescents. Furthermore, it is unknown to what degree physicians use the 5 A's model in addressing adolescent alcohol use. Objectives: To review the literature regarding the efficacy of screening and brief intervention for adolescent alcohol use in primary care settings and to use secondary data to describe physicians' use of the 5 A's (Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, Arrange) for adolescent alcohol use in primary care. Methods: For the systematic review, I searched the MEDLINE and CINAHL databases through February 2015 for experimental or observational studies examining both screening and brief intervention with average-risk 11-18 year-olds in primary care clinics. I abstracted data and assessed the quality of each study. This literature review informed the secondary data analysis, in which we audio recorded 540 adolescent well and chronic care visits with 49 primary care physicians. We identified visits in which alcohol was discussed, and conversations were analyzed for use of the 5 A's. Results: Four articles were included in the systematic review, two rated "fair" in overall quality, and two "poor." Only one intervention reduced adolescent alcohol use; two found increases in drinking behavior and one found no effect. In the audio-recorded visits, physicians and patients discussed alcohol in 61% of visits. In 64% of these, physicians used one or more of the 5 A's. In none of the visits were all 5 A's used. Physicians were most likely to Ask and Advise about alcohol use. Few Assessed, Assisted, and Arranged. Asking drinkers clear, non-leading questions was associated with increased likelihood of reporting alcohol use to physicians. Conclusions: Evidence about the use of SBIRT for adolescent alcohol use in primary care is unclear and of poor to fair quality. Few physicians addressed all of the 5 A's when counseling adolescents about alcohol use. Effective methods are needed to increase the quality of physician screening and counseling for underage drinking. Further examination of such interventions and systematic review of their use in other clinical settings or among higher-risk populations may be warranted in order to determine how to best use clinical time and resources to reduce alcohol-related morbidity and mortality among adolescents.

Creating An Intervention to Reduce Medical Errors: A Novel Social Marketing Approach

Year: 2009

description: Using the CDCynergy model, creating a social marketing campaign for achieving a reduction in surgical errors is simple to organize into basic, logical steps of planning, action and evaluation. The model breaks the process into several phases: Phase 1, Problem Description; Phase 2, Market Research; Phase 3, Market Strategy; Phase 4, Intervention; Phase 5, Evaluation, and Phase 6, Implementation. Each phase is broken into discrete steps with guiding questions. As each phase is completed, there are opportunities to go back to previous phases to make adjustments based on new information. For the purposes of this paper, the first three phases of CDCynergy are completed in detail. Where secondary sources were available they are referenced. However, some details and conclusions were made hypothetically based on reasonable assumptions, as actual focus groups were not conducted, and these are noted as such. At certain steps, relevant reflections are included to impart some insight into the creation of the public health vision and mission, and the underlying public health leadership concepts inherent in the design of this behavioral intervention. The last three phases of CDCynergy that outline the actual intervention, implementation, and evaluation details are summarized. Finally, concluding remarks outlining future steps to be taken to complete the program are included.

description: Preparation of a non-classically correlated state is the first step of any quantum-enhanced interferometric protocol. An efficient method is the one-axis twisting, which entangles a collection of initially uncorrelated particles by means of two-body interactions. Here we investigate the limits of the quantum improvement which can be reached with this method in realistic experimental conditions. We demonstrate that the usefulness of this entangling mechanism is a result of fine structures introduced into the quantum state. The scale at which these structures vary allows us to identify the minimal requirements for the precision of the complete interferometric sequence. Our results---especially the explanation of the underlying principle of the entangling method---may help to develop ultra-precise interferometers.
