description: A common problem of touch-based smartwatch interaction is the occlusion of the display. Although some models provide solutions like the Apple “digital crown” or the Samsung rotatable bezel, these are limited to only one degree of freedom (DOF). Performing complex tasks like navigating on a map is still problematic as the additional input option helps to zoom, but touching the screen to pan the map is still required. In this work, we propose using a trackball as an additional input device that adds two DOFs to prevent the occlusion of the screen. We created several prototypes to find a suitable placement and evaluated them in a typical map navigation scenario. Our results show that the participants were significantly faster (15.7 %) with one of the trackball setups compared to touch input. The results also show that the idle times are significantly higher with touch input than with all trackball prototypes, presumably because users have to reorient themselves after panning with finger occlusion.

description: In structured soils, earthworm burrows, root channels, shrinkage cracks, and interaggregate spaces form complex macropore networks relevant for preferential transport, turnover processes, and root growth. Macropore walls are often coated with organomineral material, which determine physicochemical properties such as wettability, sorption, and the cation exchange capacity (CEC). The objective here was to identify volume-averaged mean macropore coating properties of larger intact soil cores (∼7,500 cm3) from Bt horizons of Luvisols developed from loess and glacial till. The quantification of organic C (OC) content and CEC of macropore surfaces was based on three-dimensional images of X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) of 231-μm voxel resolution and a vesselness procedure to distinguish between biopores and cracks. Macropore surface areas were combined with millimeter-scaled data of OC contents and CEC of macropore coating material. The surface of macropores that accounted for 5.6 % (loess-Bt) and 4.6 % (till-Bt) of the samples’ volumes represented approximately one-third of the OC content and CEC of the bulk soil. Among the macropores, surfaces of larger biopores contributed most to OC content of the soil cores. The contribution of coated cracks and pinhole fillings to OC content was larger for the till-Bt than for the loess-Bt. Locally higher OC contents and CEC values emphasize the role of macropore surfaces in Bt horizons of Luvisols as geochemical hotspots and for mass exchange, especially during preferential flow and transport. Volume-based coating properties may help improving macroscopic-scale two-domain flow and transport models.

Investigating Potential Risk Factors for Nursing Home Admission Associated with Individuals Enrolled in Georgia’s Community Care Services Program
Creators: name: Johnson, Matthew
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This retrospective study examined records of 230 low-income elderly and disabled individuals enrolled in the Georgia Community Care Services Program (CCSP) which provides home health services in the client’s home rather than a nursing facility (NF). This study sought to determine if any common characteristics exist in program enrollees who enter a NF within one year of enrollment. Common factors found could be used to identify those who are at the highest risk for entering an NF. This knowledge could lead to reduced costs for the State of Georgia and better service for CCSP enrollees.  Findings associated with NF entry include: age, Medicaid status, and monthly income.  Further study is recommended to determine which common factors could be developed into a screening tool used to identify individuals at highest risk for NF entry. Specific care plans could then be developed to avoid or delay NF admission for CCSP enrollees.
The Impact of the “Learn the Signs. Act Early.” Public Health Awareness Campaign on Early Intervention Behavior
Creators: name: Patel, Kinjal
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the United States. Proactive adult behaviors leading to early intervention are a child’s best hope to reach their full potential. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention partnered with Porter Novelli to develop a public health campaign called “Learn the Signs. Act Early.” The goal of this campaign was to increase awareness about the early warning signs of autism to help invoke positive behaviors in parents so that children receive services at the youngest age possible.

HealthStyles survey data were analyzed to assess the difference in level of autism awareness of those surveyed before the campaign launch and of those surveyed two years post-campaign launch. Association between awareness of autism and early intervention behavior was also examined. Results of the study show improvements in awareness of autism issues; however, the results indicate minimal association between awareness and early intervention behavior. Further research efforts are essential to modify the campaign and target the issues necessary to instigate early intervention behavior.
The Role of Gender Equality and Economic Development in Explaining Female Smoking Rates
Creators: name: Shariff, Samina
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Globally female smoking rates are considerably lower than male smoking rates. However, there is great concern regarding female smoking due to the potential for future increases and the associated harm to health. To gain a better understanding regarding female smoking, this study examines the role of gender equality and economic development in explaining the variability in female smoking rates and female-to-male smoking differentials by examining data from 193 World Health Organization member states. Data on the dependent variables, female smoking prevalence rates and female-to-male smoking prevalence ratio, were obtained from the Tobacco Atlas. Data on independent variables i.e., measures of gender equality and gross national income per capita, proxy measure for economic development, were obtained from the 2005 Human Development Report, Central Intelligence Agency, and the World Bank. A composite gender equality index was constructed from the individual measures of gender equality. Multiple regression analysis showed composite gender equality index and gross national income per capita to be significant positive predictors of relative and absolute female smoking rates, with income being a stronger predicator. Individual measures of gender equality failed to show significance with either dependent variable. The results attest to the need for disentangling smoking from the notion of advancement in gender equality and economic development.

Physical Teen Dating Violence and Risk Behaviors among Black and Latino Teens
Creators: name: Gonzalez, Belsie
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Victims of teen dating violence (TDV) in the United States engage in risk behaviors that increase their vulnerability to ill health. Although teen dating violence affects millions of adolescents of diverse ethnic backgrounds, there is a higher prevalence of TDV among Blacks and Latinos. In order to develop effective interventions for diverse populations, it is critical to understand the risk behaviors associated with different victims of TDV. The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether there is a difference between the risk behaviors (alcohol abuse, illegal drug use and perilous sexual intercourse) engaged in by Black, Latino and White adolescent victims of TDV. The national 2005 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) was the source of data. This thesis hypothesizes that there are different risk behaviors related to each ethnic group, and aims to provide information to support the development of culturally competent TDV interventions.
Obesity and the Built Environment in Twenty-Six Rural Georgia Counties: An Analysis of Physical Activity, Fruit and Vegetable Consumption, and Environmental Factors.
Creators: name: Sobush, Kathleen
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This study assesses environmental factors in the exercise and food environment, demographic factors, physical activity behavior, and fruit and vegetable consumption in 26 rural Georgia counties. The purpose of the study is to identify environmental indicators of physical activity and fruit and vegetable consumption; to see what agencies in Georgia, if any, are collecting these types of data systematically throughout the state; and, to analyze potential relationships between environmental factors and health behaviors. Physical activity and fruit and vegetable consumption were derived from the Georgia Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (2001, 2002, 2003, and 2005). Demographic data were from the U.S. Census (2000). Environmental data were collected using Reference USA. Analysis was conducted using Pearson’s correlation (one-tailed). No statistically significant associations were found between the food environment and fruit and vegetable consumption nor the exercise environment and physical activity; suggesting associations found in urban areas may not exist in rural areas. Fruit and vegetable consumption was positively associated with travel time to work (P < .05). Physical activity was positively related to travel time to work (P < .01) and education (P < .05) and negatively related to federal spending per person (P < .05). Findings should improve understanding of the relationship between the environment and physical activity and fruit and vegetable consumption in rural GA. Recommendations for improved data collection and interdepartmental cooperation are made.
The Prevalence of Nelson Bay Virus in Humans and Bats and its Significance within the Framework of Conservation Medicine
Creators: name: Oliver, Jennifer
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Public health professionals strive to understand how viruses are distributed in the environment, the factors that facilitate viral transmission, and the diversity of viral agents capable of infecting humans to characterize disease burdens and design effective disease intervention strategies.  The public health discipline of conservation medicine supports this endeavor by encouraging researchers to identify previously unknown etiologic agents in wildlife and analyze the ecologic of basis of disease.  Within this framework, this research reports the first examination of the prevalence in Southeast Asia of the orthoreovirus Nelson Bay virus in humans and in the Pteropus bat reservoir of the virus.  Contact with Pteropus species bats places humans at risk for Nipah virus transmission, an important emerging infectious disease.  This research furthermore explores the environmental determinants of Nelson Bay and Nipah viral prevalence in Pteropus bats and reports the characterization of two novel orthoreoviruses isolated from bat tissues collected in Bangladesh.

Multiple Sclerosis Disease Distribution and Potential Impact of Environmental Air Pollutants in Georgia
Creators: name: Gregory, Anthony
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This study’s purpose is to examine the potential relationships between MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and environmental outdoor air pollutants in GA (Georgia). We used secondary, cross-sectional data received from the member’s list of the National Multiples Sclerosis Society’s GA chapter (NMSS-GA), the U.S. census, and scorecard.org, a database based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Toxic Release Inventory (to 2002) and National Emissions Inventory (1999) data. The study population was 9,072,576 including 6,247 self-reported MS cases from NMSS-GA.

Using stepwise multivariate linear regression of census and EPA data, the best predictive model in GA for female or total prevalence rates used per capita income and coarse particles (PM-10); male prevalence rates included only per capita income.

The relationship between MS and PM-10 could be facilitated by influences of PM-10 on the systemic immune response and inflammation. More exposure and basic and clinical research are needed to understand environmental influences on MS.

Does a Participatory Sharing and Learning Approach Make an Effective HIV Provider Training Program?
Creators: name: Salas, Daniela
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Every corner of the globe has been touched by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and local communities have responded in different ways.  There is widespread agreement in the international community that by learning from each locality's response we will be able to improve our education, prevention, and treatment efforts. United Nations agencies can play an important role in facilitating the sharing of information and innovative practices for local authorities. The CITY-AIDS Americas program of CIFAL Atlanta is a UN initiative that promotes exchanges of ideas and practices among HIV experts in the western hemisphere. The program is based on the principles of participatory and action learning, and knowledge management.  The purpose of this study was to evaluate the program's effectiveness in facilitating communication between HIV experts and the acquisition of resources following participation in the program. Data was collected through an online questionnaire completed by CITY-AIDS 2006 program participants. Secondary data such as HIV prevalence rates and census data were also used in this study.  The results of this study show that certain city and participant characteristics are associated with increased program effectiveness and resource allocation.  Based on these findings, recommendations will be made to CIFAL Atlanta.

Is Knowing Half the Battle?  An Examination of the Relationship between Folic Acid Knowledge and Awareness and Daily Supplementation with Folic Acid among 18 to 24 year old Women Who are Not Contemplating Pregnancy
Creators: name: Kilker, Katie
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Neural tube defects (NTDs) are serious birth defects that affect 3,000 pregnancies in the United States annually. All women of childbearing age are recommended to consume 400 micrograms of folic acid daily for the prevention of NTDs. Women aged 18 to 24 years have multiple risk factors for having an NTD-affected pregnancy and should be targeted by efforts to promote folic acid consumption.

Survey data capturing folic acid awareness, knowledge, and supplementation behavior of women aged 18 to 24 years who are not contemplating pregnancy were examined to identify the relationship of folic acid awareness and knowledge to daily supplementation with folic acid in an effort to predict the effectiveness of education-only interventions.  Results of the study suggested that awareness and knowledge was not consistently related to daily supplementation.  An evaluation of qualitative data using the Health Belief Model offers explanations for the findings and recommendations for targeting these at-risk women.
Implications in Using Monte Carlo Simulation in Predicting Cardiovascular Risk Factors among Overweight Children and Adolescents
Creators: name: Heimbigner, Stephen
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has increased considerably over the last few decades.  As a result, increasing numbers of American children are developing multiple risk factors for cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, hyperinsulinemia, hypertension, dyslipidemia and hepatic steatosis.    This thesis examines the use of Monte Carlo computer simulation for understanding risk factors associated with childhood overweight.  A computer model is presented for predicting cardiovascular risk factors among overweight children and adolescents based on BMI levels.    The computer model utilizes probabilities from the 1999 Bogalusa Heart Study authored by David S. Freedman, William H. Dietz, Sathanur R. Srinivasan and Gerald S. Berenson.  The thesis examines strengths, weaknesses and opportunities associated with the developed model.  Utilizing this approach, organizations can insert their own probabilities and customized algorithms for predicting future events.

Comparison of Antibiotic Sensitivity Profiles, Molecular Typing Patterns, and Attribution of Salmonella Enterica Serotype Newport in the U.S., 2003-2006
Creators: name: Patel, Nehal
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Salmonella causes gastrointestinal illness in humans.  The purpose of the study was to determine the relative contribution of different food commodities to sporadic cases of salmonellosis (attribution analysis) caused by Salmonella Newport (SN) using Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns and antimicrobial sensitivity (AST) data  submitted by public health laboratories and regulatory agencies from 2003 to 2006. The genetic relationship between isolates from non-human (348) and human (10,848) sources was studied by two unique clustering methods: UPGMA and Ward. Results show poultry was the highest contributor of human SN infections, followed by tomatoes and beef.  Beef was the largest contributing food commodity of multi-drug resistant (MDR)-AmpC infection patterns.  Results from this pilot study show that PFGE and AST can be useful tools in performing attribution analysis at the national level and that SN MDR-AmpC patterns are decreasing and seem to be restricted to isolates from animal sources.

Examination of Gender Differences in Baseline Characteristics and 12 Month Death and Rehospitalization of African American Patients Admitted for Acute Myocardial Infarction
Creators: name: Khizer, Saadia
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Coronary heart disease, including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), is the nation's leading cause of death. This study examined the characteristics and outcomes of 397 African American (AA) patients within one year of hospitalization due to AMI at Grady Memorial Hospital (GMH) in Atlanta. The PREMIER study, a nationwide registry, maintained by John Spertus MD, included data from patient interviews, medical records, and clinical characteristics like diabetes, hypertension, smoking, angina frequency and quality of life was used. Patient characteristics, associated with a major adverse event (MAE) within one-year post AMI were evaluated using SAS. Results showed a trend of higher odds of younger age, hypertension, and diabetes in women than men at the time of hospitalization. Although this study did not show any gender differences in the outcomes of AA patients following AMI, a trend of effect modification by gender on various variables was seen. Further research is recommended to examine factors contributing to gender differences in outcomes after an AMI.

Impact of an Electronic Medical Record Implementation on Drug Allergy Overrides in a Large Southeastern HMO Setting
Creators: name: Varghese, Renny
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Electronic medical records (EMRs) have become recognized as an important tool for improving patient safety and quality of care. Decision support tools such as alerting functions for patient medication allergies are a key part of reducing the frequency of serious medication problems.

Kaiser Permanente Georgia (KPGA) implemented its EMR system in the primary care departments at Kaiser's twelve facilities in the greater metro Atlanta area over a six month period beginning in June 2005 and ending December 2005.

The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of the EMR implementation on the number of drug allergy overrides within this large HMO outpatient setting. Research was conducted by comparing the rate of drug allergy overrides during pre and post EMR implementation. The timeline will be six months pre and post implementation. Observing the impact of the incidence rate of drug allergy alerts after the implementation provided insight into the effectiveness of EMRs in reducing contraindicated drug allergies.

Results show that the incidence rate of drug allergy overrides per 1,000 filled prescriptions rose by a statistically significant 5.9% (ñ > 0.0002; 95% CI [-1.531, -0.767]) following the implementation. Although results were unexpected, several factors are discussed as to the reason for the increase.

Further research is recommended to explore trends in provider behavior, KPGA specific facilities and departments, and in other KP regions and non-KP healthcare settings.

Urban Versus Rural Patterns of Mammography Use: An Analysis of Two Southeastern States
Creators: name: Bycott, Valerie
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Mammography is widely recognized as the best method to detect breast cancer. This study examined the screening rate differences among women who live in urban and rural counties in Georgia and North Carolina. Data on the mammography screening rates was obtained from the Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) for 2002 and 2004. To assess the availability of mammography facilities, data was obtained from the Mammography Facility Database provided by the FDA. Multivariate logistic regression showed that having a usual source of care in urban counties was a positive predictor of women 40-59 years of age getting screened in both states; having a personal doctor and health care coverage was significantly associated with women ages 60 and above getting screened. Getting screened was negatively predicted for women 60 years of age and older who had only a high school education. Data pertaining to mammography screening rates at the state level needs to be made publicly available to compare differences that exist among states. To better address an individual’s access to mammography facilities, a survey should be developed by the American Cancer Society which addresses the facility’s hours of operation, populations served from neighboring counties, translation services available and number of mobile versus permanent facilities in each county.

Since the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021, the international community has been struggling with the dilemma of how to support the Afghan people without legitimising the unelected regime. Based primarily on the views of local leaders and experts, this IFIT working paper draws on lessons learnt from other contexts and proposes tailored ideas for an alternative aid delivery framework for Afghanistan. It suggests that the shifting boundaries between humanitarian aid, ‘humanitarian plus’ aid, early recovery assistance and development aid may need to be revisited, so that donors can find a way to support local populations without rewarding illegitimate regimes.

description: Caffeine, a mild central nervous system stimulant, is a natural component of common hot and cold beverages like coffee, tea, sodas and cocoa. Animal studies have demonstrated caffeine’s teratogenic effects when administered at high concentrations; however, epidemiologic studies have yielded inconsistent results in humans. Because caffeine containing beverages are commonly consumed by pregnant women, we examined the prevalence of use and explored possible associations of maternal caffeine consumption with cardiovascular malformations in 3,274 cases matched with 3,519 controls enrolled in the 1981-89 “Baltimore-Washington Infant Study,” a population-based case-control investigation. We explored several key aspects of the quality of and distribution of measurements of caffeine consumption among mothers in the study population. We concluded with recommendations for refining data collection to reduce potential bias associated with assessing both caffeine content and changes in caffeine consumption during pregnancy in order to inform future research studies and birth defects/adverse birth outcomes surveillance programs.
The Etiology of Multiple Sclerosis and Correlation of the Distribution of the Disease with Migration and Settlement History of Northern Europeans
Creators: name: Gunderson, Kristin
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: The geographic disparity of multiple sclerosis has been noted in the literature for well over a century.  The frequency of the disease varies significantly both within countries and in different parts of the world.  The goal of this project is to give new insight regarding the etiology of multiple sclerosis.  Several theories regarding the etiology of the disease have been reviewed, including a geographic theory, a nutritional theory, and a genetic theory.  Although the geographic and nutritional theories have been thoroughly investigated by researchers, neither of them provides a conclusive explanation for the etiology of the disease, and there are discrepancies with respect to both theories.  The purpose of this study is to reveal the discrepancies in the epigenetic theories regarding the etiology of multiple sclerosis and to demonstrate the correlation of multiple sclerosis prevalence and the migration and settlement history of Northern Europeans, thus conferring the passage of a genetic susceptibility to the disease.

The Effect of Urinary Cadmium on Cardiovascular Fitness as Measured by VO2 Max in White, Black and Mexican Americans
Creators: name: Egwuogu, Heartley
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Context: Cadmium is an important predictor of lung function, including forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume and peak flow. Current evidence supports the notion that cadmium may be an important risk factor for cardiovascular fitness.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of cadmium exposure on cardiovascular fitness in representative sample of US white, blacks and Mexican Americans. The study also sought to determine if the relationship between cadmium and cardiovascular fitness varies by gender and racial/ethnic group. 
Methods: The data utilized for this study were obtained from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). One-thousand nine hundred and sixty three subjects with data on cardiovascular fitness were eligible for this investigation. In NHANES, cardiovascular measurements were taken in series consisting of two minutes warm up exercise, two-three minutes exercise testing and two minutes resting period .The goal was to elicit 75% of predetermined age-specific heart rate by the end of the stress test. Cadmium was measured in the laboratory by taking urine sample of participants. Gender and race/ethnic specific multivariate linear regression analyses were performed to determine relationship of urinary cadmium with VO2 max.
Results: There were gender and racial/ethnic difference in the relationship between urinary cadmium and VO2 max. In males and females, increased concentration of urinary cadmium was associated with decreased VO2 max across racial/ethnic groups (except in black males. The greatest negative association between cadmium and VO2 max was observed in black females (beta=-0.330) while the lowest value was recorded for white females (Beta=-0.074). The association was statistically significant in white males (Beta=-0.402, P =0.020) and Mexican American females (Beta=-0.290, P=0.026).
Conclusion: There was inverse association between urinary cadmium and estimated VO2 max in a US nationally representative sample of White, Black and Mexican Americans. The impact of the gender and racial/ethnic differences in the association between urinary cadmium and VO2 max is not clear and warrants further investigation.

Demographic Factors Associated with Condom Use in 18-24 Year Olds For Two States, 1998 and 2000/2001

description: Despite knowledge about the transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), young adults continue to participate in sexual risk behaviors such as unprotected sexual intercourse.  This study examines factors that influence condom use in adults aged 18-24 years in the United States. 

Using secondary data from the 1998, 2000, and 2001 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the factors influencing condom use stratified by gender and study year.  A p-value of <0.05 and 95% confidence intervals were used to determine statistical significance throughout all analysis performed.

Univariate analysis found that increased age and being male were associated with increased odds of condom use.  Multivariate analysis stratified by study year found that in 1998 increased age and unemployment was associated with increased odds of condom use.  In 2000/2001, increased age was the only factor associated with increased odds of condom use.  Being female was associated with decreased odds of condom use in that study year.  When stratified by gender, only increased age was associated with increased condom use.
The study results suggest that the factors influencing condom use vary between gender and year.  Since different factors impact condom use for each gender, the interventions designed to increase condom use must be centered on those factors. Since age was one of the consistent factors positively associated with condom use, interventions must begin earlier to affect the decision-making processes of young adults.

description: Baltic herring is the main catch in the Baltic Sea; however, its usage could be improved due to the low processing rate. Previously we have shown that whole Baltic herring hydrolysates (BHH) and herring byproducts hydrolysates (BHBH) by commercial enzymes consisted of bioactive peptides and had moderate bioactivity in in vitro dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 assay. In this study, we identified the hydrolysate peptides by LC-MS/MS and predicted the potential bioactive DPP-4 inhibitory peptides using in silico tools. Based on abundance, peptide length and stability, 86 peptides from BHBH and 80 peptides from BHH were proposed to be novel DPP-4 inhibitory peptides. BHH was fed to a mice intervention of a high-fat, high-fructose diet to validate the bioactivity. The results of the glucose tolerance and insulin tolerance improved. Plasma DPP-4 activities, C-peptide levels, and HOMA-IR scores significantly decreased, while plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 content increased. In conclusion, BHH is an inexpensive and sustainable source of functional antidiabetic ingredients.
