description: We study a realization of the topology of the Zee model for the generation of neutrino masses at one-loop with a minimal set of vector-like fermions. After imposing an exact $Z_2$ symmetry to avoid tree-level Higgs-mediated flavor changing neutral currents, one dark matter candidate is obtained from the subjacent inert doublet model, but with the presence of new co-annihilating particles. We show that the model is consistent with the constraints coming from lepton flavor violation processes, oblique parameters, dark matter and neutrino oscillation data.

Nutrition Science in the Twittersphere: Case Studies Provide Guidelines for More Effective Communication Via Twitter
Creators: name: Sanders, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: To date, no formal review has been completed to determine best practices for nutrition professionals communicating using social media such as Twitter. This study examined tweets that communicated the results from two recent research articles in order to glean information on how nutrition professionals can better communicate science-based information using this medium. Through inductive content analysis, a coding scheme was created to quantitatively assess differences between “Top Tweets” and other tweets that communicated the results of these two articles. Top Tweets were more than twice as likely as other tweets to contain either calls to action or questions to the reader, be original in content (not retweets), and be posted by a credentialed nutrition professional. These results suggest that taking time to write an original message that engages the reader will result in an expanded reach and more efficient communications for nutrition professionals using Twitter.

Subjects: subject: Educational Methods

description: Computer-based learning technologies, such as online tutoring systems, present platforms for educational researchers to conduct randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and collect rich data to study student learning, behavior, and performance. In considering how to best analyze student-level RCTs to identify effective practices, however, there has been debate as to when to account for the inherent nested structure of students and classes in order to draw causal inferences. There seems to be disagreement among educational methodologists as to 1) whether it is necessary to account for group-level effects and, if so, 2) which statistical method should be used to most accurately measure treatment effects? In this project, we will explore how multilevel modeling impacts the confidence and accuracy of estimated treatment effects in cases of RCTs with student-level randomization since students are already nested in classes outside of the study. To answer this question, we will use a combination of real and simulated data to compare. We will examine whether and how the results of analyses are impacted by accounting for class-level variance in samples from experiments with student-level randomization, provide greater insights and, most importantly, guidance for the learning sciences field in terms of best practices when analyzing student-level RCTs in educational contexts.
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and the FODMAPs elimination diet: a case study
Creators: name: Mauney, Anne
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a clinical condition that causes gastrointestinal distress and resulting malabsorption due to the presence of an abnormally large amount of microorganisms growing within the small intestine. This paper reviews the case of a client with SIBO following the Fermentable Oligo-, Di- and Mono-saccharides and Polyols (FODMAPs) elimination diet, which has been gaining attention worldwide for its role in potentially reducing SIBO's gastrointestinal symptoms. Although the diet is still relatively new, evidence does suggest that reducing intake of FODMAPs can help manage symptoms in about 75% of patients, simply because the bacteria will not be given the substrate for their fermentation (Gibson, 2010). In this paper, the FODMAPs diet will be discussed in detail, including a list of foods to avoid, foods that are allowed, FODMAPs approved meals, and how to begin testing food tolerance once already following the FODMAPs diet.
Ground state properties of quantum triangular ice

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Motivated by recent quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations of the quantum Kagome ice model by Juan Carrasquilla, et al., [Nature Communications 6, 7421 (2015)], we study the ground state properties of this model on the triangular lattice. In the presence of a magnetic field $h$, the Hamiltonian possesses competing interactions between a $Z_2$-invariant easy-axis ferromagnetic interaction $J_{\pm\pm}$ and a frustrated Ising term $J_z$. As in the U(1)-invariant model, we obtain four classical distinctive phases, however, the classical phases in the $Z_2$-invariant model are different. They are as follows: a fully polarized (FP) ferromagnet for large $h$, an easy-axis canted ferromagnet (CFM) with broken $Z_2$ symmetry for small $h$ and dominant $J_{\pm\pm}$, a {\it ferrosolid} phase with broken translational and $Z_2$ symmetries for small $h$ and dominant $J_{z}$, and two lobes with $m=\langle S_z\rangle=\pm 1/6$ for small $h$ and dominant $J_{z}$. We show that quantum fluctuations are suppressed in this model, hence the large-$S$ expansion gives an accurate picture of the ground state properties. When quantum fluctuations are introduced, we show that the {\it ferrosolid} state is the ground state in the dominant Ising limit at zero magnetic field. It remains robust for $J_z\to\infty$. With nonzero magnetic field the classical lobes acquire a finite magnetic susceptibility with no $S_z$-order. We present the trends of the ground state energy and the magnetizations. We also present a detail analysis of the CFM.

Fuel for Thought: Examining the impact of a mealtime nutrition education program on nutrition self-efficacy and dietary intake of Division I NCAA football athletes
Creators: name: Schiltz, Gregory
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Athletes have unique nutrition needs, and may see performance benefits and reduced potential for injury with proper meal timing and composition. However, it is apparent that many athletes do not consume a diet adequate to support their needs. Furthermore, most athletes rely on potentially unqualified sources, i.e. parents, teammates, coaches and athletic trainers for nutrition advice rather than dietitians. In recent years, some collegiate programs have employed dietitians to educate and improve the nutrition habits of their athletes hoping to boost performance, reduce injury rates and expedite recovery. While anecdotal evidence abounds, there is a paucity of data reflecting the effectiveness of dietitians and nutrition education on improving student athlete nutritional self-efficacy or dietary intake. The proposed study aims to implement a dietitian-focused intervention for a Division I football program that currently serves mandatory team meals but does not utilize a dietitian. The intervention will include the presence of a dietitian at team dinners over a 16-week period to provide nutritional information and implement a “point of decision” nutrition education system. A nutritional self-efficacy questionnaire and a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) will be given to the experimental group before and after the intervention period. A control group of student athletes from another sport that also participates in mandatory team dinners will only complete the questionnaires. The results of this study will determine the effectiveness of a dietitian and nutrition education program with regards to improving the dietary intake and nutrition self-efficacy of student athletes.

description: This paper presents a computational model to recover the most likely interpretation of the 3D scene structure from a planar image, where some objects may occlude others. The estimated scene interpretation is obtained by integrating some global and local cues and provides both the complete disoccluded objects that form the scene and their ordering according to depth. Our method first computes several distal scenes which are compatible with the proximal planar image. To compute these different hypothesized scenes, we propose a perceptually inspired object disocclusion method, which works by minimizing the Euler's elastica as well as by incorporating the relatability of partially occluded contours and the convexity of the disoccluded objects. Then, to estimate the preferred scene we rely on a Bayesian model and define probabilities taking into account the global complexity of the objects in the hypothesized scenes as well as the effort of bringing these objects in their relative position in the planar image, which is also measured by an Euler's elastica-based quantity. The model is illustrated with numerical experiments on, both, synthetic and real images showing the ability of our model to reconstruct the occluded objects and the preferred perceptual order among them. We also present results on images of the Berkeley dataset with provided figure-ground ground-truth labeling.

Taste Changes During Cancer Treatment: An Evaluation of Patient Experiences
Creators: name: Alexander, Natalia
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Taste change is one of many documented adverse effects related to cancer and treatment. Alterations to taste of cancer patients is of research interest due to its potentially serious effects: decreased appetite, weight loss, anorexia, and malnutrition. Poor nutrition resulting from taste change can lead to impaired immune systems, decreased well being and a reduced outlook for a patient’s survival and recovery. In addition to negatively impacting overall health, taste changes can impact quality of life and make eating a challenge. Cancer treatment may cause a dry or sore mouth, limiting food options and making physically eating uncomfortable and painful. Fatigue or tiredness resulting from treatment can lead to less enjoyable meals, making meal preparation be perceived as a burden. Emotional and social health impacts are also documented related to taste change, as eating is central to many social interactions and activities and cancer patients are less likely to engage in such activities. Social situations, such as eating with family and friends, or going out to restaurants become more challenging. In this context, this paper summarizes the literature surrounding taste change in cancer patients and documents an original study covering two phases. The study documents the experiences of thirty-eight patients undergoing treatment for cancer; thirty-two patients were interviewed, and six participated in blinded taste tests. This paper documents the relationship between taste change and cancer treatments, including the experience of food, eating, and meals, whilst discussing potentially useful strategies for managing specific taste changes. The aim of this paper is to assist clinicians in better understanding the ambiguity of taste change so they can better relate to patients and support more effective treatment to improve the health and well being of cancer patients. The paper also presents and discusses results that may help guide future research on taste change amongst cancer patients.

The Human Microbiome and Future Treatments: A New Direction in Medical Nutrition Therapy
Creators: name: Brooks, Lauren
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: Many metabolic and autoimmune conditions are frequently hard to treat and even more difficult to cure. Often times the best outcome is a lifetime of drug treatment. However, new research is showing the microbiome has a significant influence on many diseases, especially in the realm of autoimmune conditions and obesity. There are functional and core genetic differences in the microbiomes of individuals with these conditions. This new area of research is impacting the way medicine treats diseases, as the microbiome is more malleable than the human genome. It can be modified through a variety of environmental exposures. Medically, these modifications include antibiotics and, more recently, fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs ). The evidence suggests that modifying the microbiome in order to affect disease outcomes has the potential to provide an important additional approach to treatment.

description: In this paper we present a search algorithm that finds useful optical quantum states which can be created with current technology. We apply the algorithm to the field of quantum metrology with the goal of finding states that can measure a phase shift to a high precision. Our algorithm efficiently produces a number of novel solutions: we find experimentally-ready schemes to produce states that show significant improvements over the state-of-the-art, and can measure with a precision that beats the shot noise limit by over a factor of 4. Furthermore, these states demonstrate a robustness to moderate/high photon losses, and we present a conceptually simple measurement scheme that saturates the Cramér-Rao bound.

Where do nutrition facts come from? A review of nutrition information gathering and its implications
Creators: name: Foster, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, dietetics is the art and science of applying the principles of food and nutrition to health1. Practitioners are developed to support patients with ways to improve decision making regarding food choices and chief among the tools used to empower consumers is the Nutrition Facts Panel (NFP). Nutritionists will guide heart patients to be observant of cholesterol, saturated fat and sodium levels, diabetic patients of the carbohydrate levels, renal patients of protein levels and overweight patients of calorie levels, using the NFP as a guide. Researchers rely on the NFP for data regarding products consumed by populations under investigation. Industry professionals use the NFP as a guide when formulating products. Consumers are encouraged to view the NFP for important nutrition information when considering products for purchase or consumption. But where does the nutrition data come from? The purpose of this paper is to illuminate the source(s) of nutrition information about the foods we eat using the NFP as a familiar tool to illustrate this analysis.

description: The goal of this paper is to clarify the risks and benefits of GE (genetic engineering) crops and foods to consumers. Some consumers still have questions about the safety of GE foods. There are other issues about the environmental and economic impacts of widely-grown GE crops. Further, there are different viewpoints about whether or not labeling of GE foods should be mandatory. This paper seeks to address those questions, with each section focused on one of the above aspects of GE. We will investigate the evidence regarding the health and safety of GE foods in the next section. The third section will address the environmental impacts surrounding the farming of GE crops, as well as the economic benefits and costs of GE. Recent controversies surrounding labeling and the associated consequences will be discussed in the fourth section. Finally, recommendations will be made for consumers on how to make educated decisions about purchasing GE foods. Knowledge of GE will help us to be better informed about the impact of our food dollars, and make choices that are more aligned with our consumer interests.

Nutrition and food security status of Tanzanian pastoralist women: a cross-sectional study
Creators: name: Horton, Camille
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: There are limited data available on the dietary intake, nutritional status and food security status of pastoralist women in Tanzania. We characterized the dietary intake and nutritional and food security status of pastoralist women of childbearing age from multiple tribes living in close proximity in Iringa Rural District, Iringa Region, Tanzania. Data were collected from July to October, 2013 from 262 women aged 18-48 years from 191 pastoralist households. We examined anthropometric measures, anemia status, dietary diversity, and household food security status. Bivariate relationships between nutritional status, ethnicity, and food insecurity status were tested using Fisher’s exact test. Most women had ‘normal’ weight status, consumed starchy staples, leafy green vegetables and milk/milk products in the 24 hours before the survey, and were food secure. One-third or fewer of women consumed iron- and zinc- rich foods (animal-source foods or legumes, seeds and nuts). There were significant variations in weight status (p=0.0003), dietary diversity (0.004) and food security (0.04) by ethnic group. Maasai women experienced the highest prevalence of undernutrition, low dietary diversity and food insecurity; Sukuma women experienced the lowest prevalence. Women whose households purchased their food and severely food insecure women had less diverse diets. Underweight women were more likely to be food insecure. These findings make a key contribution to understanding the nutritional and food security status of pastoralist women of multiple tribes in southern Tanzania. These women may benefit from interventions to improve dietary iron- and zinc- rich food intake, overall dietary diversity and year-round food security.

description: In external Compton scenario, we investigate the formation of the very hard electron spectrum in the fast-cooling regime, using a time-dependent emission model. It is shown that a very hard electron distribution $N'_{\rm e}(\gp)\propto\gp^{-p}$ with the spectral index $p\sim1.3$ is formed below the minimum energy of injection electron when inverse Compton scattering takes place in the Klein-Nishina regime, i.e., inverse Compton scattering of relativistic electrons on broad-line region radiation in flat spectrum radio quasars. This produces a very hard gamma-ray spectrum, and can reasonably explain the very hard \emph{Fermi}-LAT spectrum of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 during the extreme gamma-ray flare in 2013 December.

description: A linear response function (LRF) determines the mean-response of a nonlinear climate system to weak imposed forcings, and an eddy flux matrix (EFM) determines the eddy momentum and heat flux responses to mean-flow changes. Neither LRF nor EFM can be calculated from first principles due the lack of a complete theory for turbulent eddies. Here the LRF and EFM for an idealized dry atmosphere are computed by applying numerous localized weak forcings, one at a time, to a GCM with Held-Suarez physics and calculating the mean-responses. The LRF and EFM for zonally-averaged responses are then constructed using these forcings and responses through matrix inversion. Tests demonstrate that LRF and EFM are fairly accurate. Spectral analysis of the LRF shows that the most excitable dynamical mode, the neutral vector, strongly resembles the model's Annular Mode. The framework described here can be employed to compute the LRF/EFM for zonally-asymmetric responses and more complex GCMs. The potential applications of the LRF/EFM constructed here are i) forcing a specified mean-flow for hypothesis-testing, ii) isolating/quantifying the eddy-feedbacks in complex eddy-mean flow interaction problems, and iii) evaluating/improving more generally-applicable methods currently used to construct LRFs or diagnose eddy-feedbacks in comprehensive GCMs or observations. As an example for iii, in Part 2, the LRF is also computed using the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT), and the previously-calculated LRF is exploited to investigate why FDT performs poorly in some cases. It is shown that dimension-reduction using leading EOFs, which is commonly used to construct LRFs from the FDT, can significantly degrade the accuracy due to the non-normality of the operator.

A Rumble in the Tummy: The Overlap between Child Hunger and Obesity Rates
Creators: name: Boyd, Windy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: In the US, many studies have found evidence that increased obesity may be related to food insecurity – defined as “limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods or limited or uncertain ability to acquire acceptable foods in socially acceptable ways” (Franklin et al. 2012). This finding is often described as a paradox as food insecurity is due to inadequate resources to obtain food while obesity results from overconsumption (Dinour et al. 2007). While this relationship has been fairly constant among adult women in the U.S., associations among children and adolescents are much less consistent, for reasons which are unclear (Franklin et al. 2012). With the substantial and rising prevalence of both child obesity and food insecurity, a better understanding of the mechanisms and pathways underlying this relationship may influence the effectiveness of policies and programs designed to combat these issues. The aims of this policy brief are to: (1) Describe the links and possible mediators between food insecurity and child obesity; (2) Explore potential approaches to decrease food insecurity and child obesity; and (3) Identify policy implications and areas of future research to minimize the contribution of food insecurity on child obesity.

Together, obesity and chronic disease place a large economic strain on the U.S. health system and represent a major public health challenge. American Indian communities, including the Navajo, are especially impacted by obesity and T2DM and have a higher prevalence of these conditions than other racial/ethnic groups in the U.S. Therefore, obesity and related chronic disease constitute a health disparity that demands a solution. Increased energy intake is central to the rise in obesity. Increased consumption of sugar­ sweetened beverages (SSBs) and junk/snack foods contributes to caloric intake, as does decreased consumption of fruits and vegetables. Research indicates that unhealthy foods are often less expensive and more widely available than healthy foods; this situation holds true on the Navajo Nation. Therefore, policymakers including the Navajo Nation Council are considering food pricing strategies such as taxation and subsidies to alter the relative prices of healthy and unhealthy foods. Food pricing strategies are supported by theoretical and empirical evidence. Implementation of such strategies on the Navajo Nation will add to the body of evidence, set precedence for other American Indian tribes, support food sovereignty initiatives, and address health disparities. Policy makers should consider issues such as definition of the tax base, excise vs. sales tax, tax size, and uses ofrevenue generated. Recommendations for the Navajo Nation include implementation of a tax of 1 cent per fluid ounce of SSB and exclusion of a junk food tax pending compelling supportive evidence. Revenue may be used to subsidize fruits and vegetables and to implement community wellness projects.

Field induced multiple order-by-disorder state selection in antiferromagnetic honeycomb bilayer lattice
Creators: name: Albarracín, F. A. Gómez

description: In this paper we present a detailed study of the antiferromagnetic classical Heisenberg model on a bilayer honeycomb lattice in a highly frustrated regime in presence of a magnetic field. This study shows strong evidence of entropic order-by-disorder selection in different sectors of the magnetization curve. For antiferromagnetic couplings $J_1=J_x=J_p/3$, we find that at low temperatures there are two different regions in the magnetization curve selected by this mechanism with different number of soft and zero modes. These regions present broken $Z_2$ symmetry and are separated by a not fully collinear classical plateau at $M=1/2$. At higher temperatures, there is a crossover from the conventional paramagnet to a cooperative magnet. Finally, we also discuss the low temperature behavior of the system for a less frustrated region, $J_1=J_x

description: Land and natural resources are at the core of conflicts between Indigenous peoples and Settlers in settler-colonial nations. This article explores the coloniality of natural resource law in the context of the New Zealand Crown Minerals Act 1991 (CMA) Block Offer process; the annual tender process for mineral prospecting and exploration. While there is often strong Mā ori participation, we will argue that Aotearoa New Zealand settler-colonial mining law is structured in such a way that Māori views rarely influence the substantive outcomes of mineral exploration decisions. Through a case study of the 2013 Epithermal Gold Block Offer in the Central North Island, we will explore the factors that might contribute to the mismatch between the level of Māori participation and the influence of Māori views on final decisions in the Block Offer process. We examine how different views are valued by bureaucrats within New Zealand Petroleum and Minerals, a government agency within the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, and explore whether the criteria applied to Mā ori submissions genuinely and appropriately reflect the full range of interests, aspirations and concerns raised by Māori participants. In particular, we consider how mining regulation is structured to exclude Māori law and jurisdiction in order to uphold settler-colonial authority over key natural resources and extractivist economies. Finally, we consider alternatives to the CMA process and explore the potential to ensure substantive outcomes that better reflect the Mā ori views and interests. In doing so we point to the need to shift from colonial extractivist models of natural resources law towards Settler-Indigenous partnerships in relation to environmental planning in settler-colonial states.
