Sore Losers? The Effect of Post-Election Audit Procedure on Voter Confidence in US Presidential Elections
Creators: name: Bennett Stillerman
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: This research examines a crucial step in the electoral certification process: the post-election audit, and its impact on voter confidence at national and subnational levels. Using data from the Survey on the Performance of American Elections, this research uses a multi-level conception of voter confidence to examine the impact of post-election audits on public confidence in election results. Additionally, this paper further investigates the relationship between election certification procedure and voter confidence by examining the mediating relationship between political elite rhetoric and post-election audits. This research provides convincing evidence that the impact of post-election audits is heavily mediated by political elites, especially at the state level of voter confidence. Specifically, partisans who voted for the losing candidate were more skeptical of vote tabulations as a result of audits, compared to similar voters in states without audits.
Co-Designing a Website to Empower Youth to Ask Questions So They Can Better Manage Their Health
Creators: name: Wright, Megan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Background: 
	Adolescents have a desire to engage more in medical conversations, but they are often overshadowed by caregivers, which limits their ability to take an active role in their care. 
Objective: 
	To co-design a website aimed to empower youth with chronic conditions to ask questions to have productive and insightful conversations with their healthcare providers.
Patient Involvement: 
	Two youth advisory boards were created and met to co-design a website with our team. 
Methods:
The research team worked with two youth advisory boards consisting of adolescent stakeholders ranging from ages 11 to 17, with at least one chronic medical condition. Adolescents participated in five meetings to give input into website design and refinement over a two-and-a-half-year period. The boards reacted to the website in various stages of design. 
Results:
	Adolescents wanted simple, straightforward language that would be understood by anyone between the ages of 11 and 17 years and a website that included a reputable URL, such as .org or .edu. The final website had sections on ADHD, asthma, vaping/smoking, diabetes, seizures, anxiety, panic disorder, depression, addiction, stimulants, bullying, eating disorders, and STIs. The youth advisory boards wanted general background content, helpful resources, question prompt lists to use with providers or others, and videos encouraging youth to be involved in their care. 
Discussion: 
	A website with information on different health topics that contains question prompt lists and videos for utilization during healthcare visits, has the potential to increase adolescent involvement in their own care.  
Practice implications: 
	The website content can be accessed through computers, tablets, or mobile devices, so teens can use the tools to increase their involvement in their care. Schools, clinics, and youth organizations can disseminate the website to youth.
Funding:
	 This research received funding assistance from The Duke Endowment and the Eshelman Institute for Innovation.
Characterization of Polypharmacy Patient Samples using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) Data
Creators: name: Perry, Jasmine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION
Polypharmacy is the use of multiple medications by a single patient and impacts nearly 30% of geriatric populations in all developed nations. Clinically, polypharmacy poses an increased risk of  poor outcomes including worsening cognitive impairment, delirium, falls risk, fracture risk, and mortality in geriatric populations. Outcomes associated with polypharmacy have been explored; however, there is limited data characterizing the populations impacted by polypharmacy beyond age.

METHODS
The objective of this project was to identify characteristics including demographic, clinical, and lifestyle factors common in polypharmacy patient populations and common medication classes used in polypharmacy using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). NHANES collected cross-sectional data on representative samples of the U.S. population from 1999 until 2016. As there is not a standardized definition of polypharmacy, this analysis defined polypharmacy as two or more medications taken by a single patient. Statistical Analysis System (SAS) was utilized to perform frequency analysis and logistic regressions to analyze correlations between medication use and pre-identified characteristics. All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, and race and ethnicity.

FINDINGS
From 1999 until 2016, an average of 25.6% of NHANES participants were taking 2 or more medications. Prevalence of polypharmacy was highest in 2007 (N=2,933 [28.9%]) and lowest in 1999 (N=2,069 [20.76%]). When adjusted for by age, race and ethnicity, and sex, participants with congestive heart failure maintained the highest prevalence of polypharmacy when compared with other medical conditions with an average of 3.1 more medications taken per participant. Furthermore, age greater than 65, female gender, daily alcohol intake, and confirmed insurance status were consistently associated with increased polypharmacy across the course of the study. Common medications in polypharmacy included albuterol, hydrochlorothiazide, and lisinopril.

CONCLUSIONS
Total polypharmacy prevalence remained fairly consistent over time. Based on the findings, polypharmacy patients can be identified by certain medical conditions, insurance status, lifestyle factors (alcohol intake) and demographic factors (age, race, sex, marriage status, and gender). More extensive studies are needed to determine characteristics associated with inappropriate polypharmacy and specific medication use trends over time to inform more targeted interventions by clinical pharmacists.
Estimating Claims-based Medication Adherence under Varying Assumptions for Hospitalization Adjustment
Creators: name: Weiskopf, Marin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Lack of medication adherence has cost $300 billion in unnecessary spending, poor health outcomes, and higher mortality and morbidity. The Proportion of Days Covered (PDC) is the current accepted standard method to measure medication adherence, however, it does not address adjustment for hospitalizations. The lack of adjustment could yield inaccurate results of adherence for populations most at-risk for hospitalizations and affect reimbursement based on outcomes used within the value-based payment model. This study used Medicare medication claims data comparing PDC and Proportion of Ambulatory Days Covered (PADC) in three different populations with varying amounts of hospitalizations to determine the variance of adherence values. The average difference between means were 1.1%, 1.4%, and 2.2% on average for the general Medicare population, 3+ chronic conditions, and cancer population, respectively. The cancer population had the greatest difference between PDC and PADC means of percent adherent, whereas the general Medicare population had the least. When comparing the data values, as the number of hospitalizations increased the greater the variation between the PDC and PADC adherence measures.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a widespread issue that has developed into an epidemic over the last several decades. It significantly affects thousands of pregnant women in the United States, leading to detrimental health outcomes for both mother and offspring. Medication treatment for opioid use disorder (MOUD) with buprenorphine or buprenorphine HCl-naloxone HCl (Suboxone) aids in reduced opioid use, improved relapse rates, and overall better health outcomes for mothers and offspring. Understanding factors that affect postpartum MOUD continuation is imperative in assisting with future policy changes and necessitating improved perinatal health programs for postpartum women with OUD.
The aim of this study is to examine postpartum MOUD discontinuation in perinatal women diagnosed with OUD and assess factors associated with MOUD discontinuation during the postpartum stage.
This study evaluated MOUD discontinuation among postpartum women diagnosed with opioid use disorder living in Western North Carolina (n=131). Adjusted multivariable logistic regression using SAS 9.4 statistical software was conducted using Mountain Area Health Education Center electronic health record data collected from 2017-2019.
OUD was reported by all 131 patients enrolled. Of those patients with a formal OUD diagnosis, 77.1% of the patients used Buprenorphine HCl-Naloxone HCl for MOUD while 22.9% used Buprenorphine HCl only at approximately 60 days postpartum, 88% of the patient population had evidence of MOUD continuation. Furthermore, 85%, 75%, and 70 % of women have evidence of MOUD continuation at 90, 180, and 270 days, respectively. Women who were more likely to be older had less risk of MOUD discontinuation. 
This study demonstrates that despite Medicaid coverage ending 60 days postpartum, MOUD continuation remains high among this cohort of women. These findings are most likely attributed to the continuous care provided by comprehensive perinatal treatment programs.

description: An asteroid family is typically formed when a larger parent body undergoes a catastrophic collisional disruption, and as such family members are expected to show physical properties that closely trace the composition and mineralogical evolution of the parent. Recently a number of new datasets have been released that probe the physical properties of a large number of asteroids, many of which are members of identified families. We review these data sets and the composite properties of asteroid families derived from this plethora of new data. We also discuss the limitations of the current data, and the open questions in the field.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Aims: To evaluate the potential impact of preemptive multigene pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing on medication prescribing in real-world clinical settings.
Patients and Methods: Prescription frequencies for 65 medications with actionable PGx recommendations were collected in 215 percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and 131 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT) patients. A simulation projected the number of PGx-guided prescribing opportunities.
Results: In PCI and allo-HCT patients, respectively, 66.5% and 90.1% were prescribed at least one medication with actionable PGx prescribing recommendations. Simulations projected 26.5 and 41.2 total PGx-guided prescribing opportunities per 100 PCI and allo-HCT patients, respectively, if multigene PGx results were available.
Conclusions: A multigene PGx testing strategy offers potential to optimize medication prescribing beyond clopidogrel and tacrolimus in PCI and allo-HCT patients.

Evaluation of Clinician Interpretation and Prescribing Practices Based on Microbiologic Susceptibility Determination of "Susceptible-Dose Dependent”
Creators: name: Rowley, Amy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Enterococcus spp. are among the leading causes of nosocomial infections with growing resistance to standard therapies like vancomycin. Daptomycin has activity against vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) infections. However, due to concerns over growing resistance, the Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute re-evaluated the interpretative categories for daptomycin treatment of VRE in 2019 to include a new Susceptible-Dose Dependent ("SDD") category for E.faecium. The goal of this category was to direct clinicians to use higher dosing strategies, but its effectiveness has not yet been evaluated. We conducted a retrospective cohort study at the University of North Carolina Medical Center (UNCMC) from August 2016-July 2020 and included adult patients with VRE bacteremia with reported daptomycin susceptibility. Of 56 episodes of VRE bacteremia in which daptomycin was a clinically appropriate option, clinicians selected daptomycin in 81% of cases when interpreted as S and 71% of cases when SDD. Median dose prescribed was 10mg/kg for both interpretations. In a second analysis, we surveyed clinicians at UNCMC on their understanding of SDD, choice of therapy for bacteremia carrying S and SDD interpretations, and preferred resources for guidance. Of the 43 survey responses analyzed, 28 self-identified as physicians with 82% reporting either no previous encounter or no recollection of the SDD interpretation to describe daptomycin. There was no statistically significant difference between daptomycin selection in the case-based scenarios, but 82% physicians versus 21% pharmacists were unsure of a daptomycin dose when interpreted as SDD. Respondents were most like to consult local personnel over local guidelines to assist with optimal dosing. This work was presented to the Carolina Antimicrobial Stewardship Program at UNCMC to identify gaps in knowledge and ensure clinicians have access to resources to help guide treatment decisions.

description: We present a coarse-grained model for ionic surfactants in explicit aqueous solutions, and study by computer simulation both the impact of water content on the morphology of the system, and the consequent effect of the formed interfaces on the structural features of the adsorbed fluid. On increasing the hydration level at ambient conditions, the model exhibits a series of three distinct phases: lamellar, cylindrical and micellar. We characterize the different structures in terms of diffraction patterns and neutron scattering static structure factors. We demonstrate that the rate of variation of the nano-metric sizes of the self-assembled water domains shows peculiar changes in the different phases. We also analyse in depth the structure of the water/confining matrix interfaces, the implications of their tunable degree of curvature, and the properties of water molecules in the different restricted environments. Finally, we discuss our results compared to experimental data and their impact on a wide range of important scientific and technological domains, where the behavior of water at the interface with soft materials is crucial.

description: In the present work we discuss a third alternative to explain the latest observational data concerning the accelerating Universe and its different stages. The particle creation mechanism in the framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics is considered as a basic cosmic mechanism acting on the flat FRW geometry. By assuming that the gravitationally induced particle production occurs under "adiabatic" conditions, the deceleration parameter is expressed in terms of the particle creation rate which is chosen as a truncated power series of the Hubble parameter. The model shows the evolution of the Universe starting from inflation to the present late time acceleration and it also predicts future decelerating stage.

description: We present constraints on both the kinetic temperature of the intergalactic medium (IGM) at z=8.4, and on models for heating the IGM at high-redshift with X-ray emission from the first collapsed objects. These constraints are derived using a semi-analytic method to explore the new measurements of the 21 cm power spectrum from the Donald C. Backer Precision Array for Probing the Epoch of Reionization (PAPER), which were presented in a companion paper, Ali et al. (2015). Twenty-one cm power spectra with amplitudes of hundreds of mK^2 can be generically produced if the kinetic temperature of the IGM is significantly below the temperature of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB); as such, the new results from PAPER place lower limits on the IGM temperature at z=8.4. Allowing for the unknown ionization state of the IGM, our measurements find the IGM temperature to be above ~5 K for neutral fractions between 10% and 85%, above ~7 K for neutral fractions between 15% and 80%, or above ~10 K for neutral fractions between 30% and 70%. We also calculate the heating of the IGM that would be provided by the observed high redshift galaxy population, and find that for most models, these galaxies are sufficient to bring the IGM temperature above our lower limits. However, there are significant ranges of parameter space that could produce a signal ruled out by the PAPER measurements; models with a steep drop-off in the star formation rate density at high redshifts or with relatively low values for the X-ray to star formation rate efficiency of high redshift galaxies are generally disfavored. The PAPER measurements are consistent with (but do not constrain) a hydrogen spin temperature above the CMB temperature, a situation which we find to be generally predicted if galaxies fainter than the current detection limits of optical/NIR surveys are included in calculations of X-ray heating.

Explore mindsets and describe teaching behaviors of pharmacy faculty
Creators: name: Wong, Audrey
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Introduction: Individuals with a growth mindset tend to believe that one’s ability or intelligence is malleable; this is opposite of those with a fixed mindset, which assumes that it is a fixed attribute. Currently, there is limited research describing the mindsets of faculty in the health professions. In education settings outside of healthcare, there is evidence that faculty’s fixed mindset can lead to larger racial achievement gaps and less student motivation in classes. Given the mindset of faculty may affect how they interact with students, further research is needed to better understand and design effective intervention to provide professional development opportunities that promote a growth mindset in faculty.

Methods: A survey, which was created based on the review of current research, was distributed to UNC pharmacy faculty in March 2021. It collected pertinent demographics, faculty perspectives on fixed and growth mindsets, and their teaching behaviors in classroom. A collection of faculty were invited to join one of the four focus groups in order to understand their perspective more thoroughly. 

Results: A total of 44 survey responses were collected. Results showed that most pharmacy faculty members tend to have a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset. Their beliefs and mindsets also aligned with their teaching practices in classroom which highlighted making mistakes and learning from mistakes. Alternative methods are currently in need to encourage students’ engagement in class and willingness to reach out for help when struggling. While there were various professional development practices throughout the academic year, more details and research about mindset could be promoted during future professional development sessions to further incorporate growth mindset in classroom and better facilitate students’ learning. 

Conclusions: UNC Pharmacy faculty members tend to have a growth mindset and incorporate a growth mindset into their teaching practices. As a student’s mindset can be influenced by a faculty member’s mindset, professional development practices are crucial in preparing faculty to instill a growth mindset in classroom. Two main areas that needed to be improved were identified in this study and should be added in future professional development opportunities. Although this study mainly focused on UNC faculty, the result may be shared with other institutions as a reference to tailor their interventions in promoting growth mindset in faculty.

description: With quantum computers being out of reach for now, quantum simulators are the alternative devices for efficient and more exact simulation of problems that are challenging on conventional computers. Quantum simulators are classified into analog and digital, with the possibility of constructing "hybrid" simulators by combining both techniques. In this paper, we focus on analog quantum simulators of open quantum systems and address the limit that they can beat classical computers. In particular, as an example, we discuss simulation of the chlorosome light-harvesting antenna from green sulfur bacteria with over 250 phonon modes coupled to each electronic state. Furthermore, we propose physical setups that can be used to reproduce the quantum dynamics of a standard and multiple-mode Holstein model. The proposed scheme is based on currently available technology of superconducting circuits consist of flux qubits and quantum oscillators.

description: We report results of molecular line observations carried out toward a massive dense core in the Cyg OB 7 molecular cloud. The core has an extraordinarily large mass ($\sim1.1 \times 10^4$ $M_\odot$) and size ($\sim2 \times 5$ pc$^2$), but there is no massive young star forming therein. We observed this core in various molecular lines such as C$^{18}$O($J=1-0$) using the 45m telescope at Nobeyama Radio Observatory. We find that the core has an elongated morphology consisting of several filaments and core-like structures. The filaments are massive ($10^2-10^3$ $M_\odot$), and they are apparently colliding against each other. Some candidates of YSOs are distributed around their intersection, suggesting that the collisions of the filaments may have influenced on their formation. To understand the formation and evolution of such colliding filaments, we performed numerical simulations using the adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) technique adopting the observed core parameters (e.g., the mass and size) as the initial conditions. Results indicate that the filaments are formed as seen in other earlier simulations for small cores in literature, but we could not reproduce the collisions of the filaments simply by assuming the large initial mass and size. We find that the collisions of the filaments occur only when there is a large velocity gradient in the initial core in a sense to compress it. We suggest that the observed core was actually compressed by an external effect, e.g., shocks of nearby supernova remnants including HB21 which has been suggested to be interacting with the Cyg OB 7 molecular cloud.

O plano iconográfico da Igreja Nossa Senhora Mãe dos Homens – Santuário do Caraça, contextualização e mudanças
Creators: name: de Assis, Maria Clara
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: O Santuário do Caraça está localizado nas cidades de Santa Bárbara e Catas Altas, no trecho da Serra do Espinhaço, no estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Construído por Irmão Lourenço em 1770, com o objetivo de ser um recanto de peregrinação, foi erguida uma ermida barroca em devoção a Nossa Senhora Mãe dos Homens que, :posteriormente, se tornou um educandário. A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo apresentar a mudança do plano iconográfico ocorrido na Igreja Nossa Senhora Mãe dos Homens, edificação religiosa que integra o Santuário.Após a morte do fundador, o Santuário passou a ser administrado pela Congregação da Missão, que chegou ao Brasil em 1820. Esta ação trouxe grandes melhorias na parte educacional, contando com a inauguração do colégio e modificações estruturais, como a demolição da ermida barroca e a construção de uma catedral neogótica, idealizada pelo Padre Júlio Clavelin. Foi nesse contexto que ocorreu uma mudança no programa iconográfico da igreja.A análise da pesquisa converge na busca por informações na documentação presente na Biblioteca do Caraça e na literatura, sobre as mudanças ocorridas, a inserção de novas iconografias e o paradeiro das demais esculturas que pertenciam à Igreja no período de Irmão Lourenço. Até o momento, a pesquisa constatou que as esculturas em madeira policromada foram substituídas por imagens em gesso vindas da França. Por fim, a pesquisa apresenta as iconografias e hagiografias das devoções presentes atualmente na Igreja de Nossa Senhora Mãe dos Homens e a localização das esculturas que pertenciam à ermida barroca.

Comparing the Return on Investment of Technologies to Detect Substandard and Falsified Amoxicillin: A Kenya Case Study

description: 
The prevalence of substandard and falsified medicines in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is a major global public health concern. Multiple screening technologies for post-market surveillance of medicine quality have been developed but there exists no clear guidance on which technology is optimal for LMICs. An agent-based model, Examining Screening Technologies using Economic Evaluations for Medicines (ESTEEM), was developed to estimate the costs, benefits, and return on investment (ROI) of implementing screening technologies for post-market surveillance of substandard and falsified amoxicillin for treatment of pediatric pneumonia in Kenya. The model simulated sampling, testing, and removal of substandard and falsified amoxicillin from the Kenyan market using five screening technologies: (1) Global Pharma Health Fund’s GPHF-Minilab, (2) high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), (3) near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR), (4) paper analytical device /antibiotic paper analytical device (PAD/aPAD), and (5) Raman spectroscopy. NIR and PADs/aPADs yielded the highest ROI at $21 (90% Uncertainty Range (UR) $5-$51) each, followed by GPHF-Minilab ($16, 90% UR $4 - $38), Raman ($9, 90% UR $2 - $21), and HPLC ($3, 90% UR $0 - $7). We found that GPHF-Minilab, NIR, and PADs/aPADs were similar in their abilities to screen and remove substandard and falsified amoxicillin from the Kenyan market with high ROI. National medicine regulatory authorities should adopt these fast, reliable, and low-cost screening technologies to better detect substandard and falsified medicines, reserving HPLC for confirmatory tests.

description: In this paper we introduce and analyze an algorithm for continuous data assimilation for a three-dimensional Brinkman-Forchheimer-extended Darcy (3D BFeD) model of porous media. This model is believed to be accurate when the flow velocity is too large for Darcy's law to be valid, and additionally the porosity is not too small. The algorithm is inspired by ideas developed for designing finite-parameters feedback control for dissipative systems. It aims to obtaining improved estimates of the state of the physical system by incorporating deterministic or noisy measurements and observations. Specifically, the algorithm involves a feedback control that nudges the large scales of the approximate solution toward those of the reference solution associated with the spatial measurements. In the first part of the paper, we present few results of existence and uniqueness of weak and strong solutions of the 3D BFeD system. The second part is devoted to the setting and convergence analysis of the data assimilation algorithm.

Evaluation of transparency and quality of provider networks associated with mental health care in large group and marketplace insurance plans in North Carolina
Creators: name: Huang, Yao-Hsuan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Introduction: The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) and the extension of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandate that health insurance plans include access to mental health services in parity with physical health services. Nonetheless, patients with mental health conditions constantly face difficulties in getting access to mental health providers. It is challenging for patients to intepret the quality of different provider networks when shopping through insurance websites. Current literature has examined the accuracy of information from
provider networks and the challenges for insured patients accessing mental healthcare However, differences of quality of provider networks between urban and rural areas, and between different types of insurance were not fully studied. The objective of this secret shopper
study was to evaluate the transparency and quality of provider networks from the largest insurance providers in North Carolina.
Methods: In this cross-sectional observational secret shopper study, four secret shoppers attempted to call 400 healthcare facilities in two urban and two rural counties in North Carolina to ask for a mental health appointment under a large group insurance plan or marketplace
insurance plan. Through phone calls, quantitative data were collected, which include wait time until the first appointment, number of times there is inaccurate provider information, number of providers that accept new patients, and number of successfully made appointments. The results were converted into percentages and then compared between groups.
Results: Among 392 phone calls, 15% of them successfully led to a mental health appointment (13% of urban and 17.71% of rural healthcare facilities) while mean wait time until the first appointment was 32.95 days. Overall, there were no significant differences in most quality characteristics between urban and rural counties, and between large group insurance and marketplace insurance.
Conclusion: This secret shopper study illustrates that the problem of accessing mental health services is still an issue. The information in the insurance provider directory is often inaccurate. Patients continue facing challenges reaching out to healthcare providers for mental health
services even when covered by healthcare insurance. Although no significant difference was detected between plans and urban or rural areas, there is an accessibility gap between different
areas and different insurance types. Therefore, more updated provider information is needed to
help patients recognize the quality of provider networks and save time reaching out to providers.
