description: Additional file 2: Supplementary Figure 2. Effect of Origanum vulgare essential oil combined with fluconazole and nystatin on the viability of biofilms from Candida albicans clinical isolates. The effects of the combination of O-EO with fluconazole (upper row) and nystatin (lower row) on cell viability were measured using the MTT reduction assay in two C. albicans clinical isolates from denture stomatitis patients: 17p (left panels) and 18r (right panels). Preformed biofilms (24h) were exposed to the different drugs for 24h. Seven concentrations were mixed in every possible combination to obtain an effect matrix plotted with the Combenefit software. The graphs at the left of each panel represent a XYZ model of the combination and is analyzed according to Loewe’s model of drug additivity. At the right of each graph is the matrix of combinations that shows the differences between the theoretical combinations and empirical data by a number generated for each point. Positive numbers are given for synergistic combinations, whereas negative numbers indicate antagonism. Color code indicates statistical significance of the difference between theorical and empirical model (Student’s t-test). *p < 0.05. The matrix of combinations shows the mean ± standard deviation of three independent experiments.

description: The angular dependent magnetoresistance of (Per)2[Au(mnt)2] under pressure has revealed geometrical effects associated with the crystallographic parameters. Pressure suppresses the charge density wave ground state of the material, and in the metallic state both geometrical and orbital quantum interference effects appear. Through magnetic field dependence and orientation, the orbital and geometrical effects are independently identified. We compare the results from (Per)2[Au(mnt)2] with previous studies of the well-known Bechgaard salts.

Examining the implementation of diabetes prevention programs in the community
Creators: name: Dineen, Tineke Ellen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Type two diabetes (T2D) is one of the fastest growing chronic conditions worldwide and has negative health consequences and high costs for healthcare systems. Prediabetes, which precedes T2D, offers an opportunity for early intervention to delay and/or prevent progression to T2D. Diet and exercise are the cornerstones of diabetes prevention and have a large research base demonstrating their efficacy at reducing T2D risk. To combat the rising prevalence of T2D worldwide, diabetes prevention programs need to be implemented in practice within real-world settings. Moving research to practice (real-world) is notoriously slow’. Successful real-world examples exist, but reporting on implementation variables is limited. Implementation science focuses on understanding how and why programs work in real-world settings. Understanding how and why programs work is important because real-world settings have substantially more variables influencing interventions compared to controlled trials. Thus, this dissertation used an implementation science lens to examine the translation of diabetes prevention programs to the real world. Chapters 2-4 examined implementation of the Small Steps for Big Changes (SSBC) diabetes prevention program. Specifically, Chapter 2-3 examined the implementation outcome, fidelity. Chapter 2 evaluated the effectiveness of the in-person Small Steps for Big Changes training for fitness facility staff using the 4-level Kirkpatrick training evaluation model. Chapter 3 examined the delivery of, and engagement with, an evidence-based diet and exercise diabetes prevention program when delivered by fitness facility staff within a community organization. Chapter 4 reported the implementation strategies used and identified implementation determinants through a qualitative examination of implementation process as SSBC was implemented into two local community sites. Finally, through an in-depth systematic search and review, Chapter 5 identified implementation strategies, outcomes, and determinants when diabetes prevention programs were implemented in real-world settings. Together, results from this dissertation establish the foundation for future scale-up of the SSBC program and can inform future implementation projects. Overall, this work made important practical, theoretical, and methodological contributions to implementation science and diabetes prevention fields.

description: Efficient relocalization is essential for intelligent vehicles when GPS reception is insufficient or sensor-based localization fails. Recent advances in Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) segmentation allow for accurate estimation of local scene appearance and in turn, can benefit the relocalization of the vehicle. However, one downside of BEV methods is the heavy computation required to leverage the geometric constraints. This paper presents U-BEV, a U-Net inspired architecture that extends the current state-of-the-art by allowing the BEV to reason about the scene on multiple height layers before flattening the BEV features. We show that this extension boosts the performance of the U-BEV by up to 4.11 IoU. Additionally, we combine the encoded neural BEV with a differentiable template matcher to perform relocalization on neural SD-map data. The model is fully end-to-end trainable and outperforms transformer-based BEV methods of similar computational complexity by 1.7 to 2.8 mIoU and BEV-based relocalization by over 26% Recall Accuracy on the nuScenes dataset.

description: The recently developed theory of Schur rings over a finite cyclic group is generalized to Schur rings over a ring R being a product of Galois rings of coprime characteristics. It is proved that if the characteristic of R is odd, then as in the cyclic group case any pure Schur ring over R is the tensor product of a pure cyclotomic ring and Schur rings of rank 2 over non-fields. Moreover, it is shown that in contrast to the cyclic group case there are non-pure Schur rings over R that are not generalized wreath products.

title: A Comparison Of The Economic Profitability Of Specified Risk Management Alternatives For Intermountain West Farmers
Creators: name: Bingham, Cody D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2008

description: The purpose of this research is to provide quantitative and limited qualitative analysis for the United States Intermountain West on the economic effectiveness of risk management alternatives in an agricultural operation. This research is not meant to be an exhaustive comparison of every potential combination of alternatives and risk scenarios. Instead, specific parameters such as farm size, crops grown, risk attitudes and risk management strategies are set to guide the research and offer a basis of comparison. This research evaluates several levels of coverage using Multiple Peril Crop Insurance, Crop Revenue Coverage Insurance, Adjusted Gross Revenue - Lite Insurance and a limited interaction of the futures market. Microsoft Excel and the add-in Simetar was used to perform the quantitative analysis. A set of spreadsheets were created to allow a variety of data to be easily input and manipulated. The values used in this research were based on the 2002 Census of Agriculture to create a "typical" farm considered in Box Elder County, Utah. The results generated were sorted and ranked according to four decision criteria in relation to the net income observed in each simulated scenario. These include: the probability that net income will exceed $0; a maxi-min; a maxi-max; and the maximum positive net income at a probability of occurrence of 0.5, resembling a Safety-First criterion. The later three decision criterion used correspond to risk attitudes that may be possessed by a producer: risk adverse, risk preferring or seeking, and risk neutral respectively. The quantitatively "best" observed results were then qualitatively compared to the next "best" result. In general the conclusion is made that some strategy is better than no strategy and the "best" risk management strategy is one compatible with the risk attitude of the producer and the parameters of the farm in consideration. There is no single strategy for all decision criterions that consistently outperforms all other strategies considered in this research.

description: High-energy processes in young stellar objects (YSOs) occur in very early evolutionary stages, mostly due to intense coronal-type activity. These processes can be traced by thermal X-ray emission, widely studied in the last few decades, and non-thermal radio emission at cm- and mm-wavelengths, now routinely available with the development of the most modern radio facilities. In this context, we present a follow-up of our deep VLA radio survey in the central part of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) at cm-wavelengths, now expanded to the outskirts of the cluster, revealing hundreds of young stars at sub-arcsecond resolution over ~20′×20′. We study variability at high-time resolution and report the discovery of high proper motions of faint features related to the OMC1 explosion. We also present evidence of the effect that the high-mass stars at the centre of the cluster have on the radio properties of nearby sources which most likely show enhanced free-free radio emission from external photoevaporation. In order to expand our study of non-thermal radio variability in YSOs we made use of ALMA (mm-wavelengths) and the VLBA (cm-wavelengths). With ALMA we provide the first systematic monitoring of synchrotron flares which are of particular relevance for the irradiation of protoplanetary discs as well as for disc mass measurements of insufficiently resolved protoplanetary discs, while the VLBA milliarcsecond resolution observations allow us to filter out any thermal emission making possible the study of the exclusively non-thermal population at cm-wavelengths in the ONC for which we present a variability study.

Nonlinear Optical Effects Due to Magnetization Dynamics In a Ferromagnet

description: We theoretically consider magnetization dynamics in a ferromagnetic slab induced by the magnetic field of a strong femtosecond laser pulse. The longitudinal geometry, in which the initial magnetization lies in both the plane of incidence and the sample plane, is studied. The magnetization oscillations at the optical wave frequency are calculated with the use of the Kapitza pendulum approach taking into account that the optical frequency is much greater than the magnetization oscillation eigenfrequency. We study the reflection of the electromagnetic wave from a ferromagnet %with such a dynamics and show that this laser-induced low-frequency magnetization dynamics leads to the appearance of the second-order nonlinearity in the Maxwell's equations, which in turn gives rise to both the second harmonic generation (SHG) and rectification effect. Although the amplitude of the magnetization oscillations is small, the considered effect may be responsible for the SHG with the efficiency comparable to that of nonmagnetic SHG from metal surfaces. Our estimations show that the suggested mechanism may explain the recent experiments on magnetization induced modulation of the SHG intensity in a ``forbidden'' $P_{in}P_{out}$ combination of incident and reflected waves in cobalt/heavy metal systems, where it can be even more pronounced due to the spin current flow through the ferromagnet/ heavy metal interface.

description: We present a density-functional theory trend study addressing the binding of the trans-cis conformational switch azobenzene (C6H5-N=N-C6H5) at three coinage metal surfaces. From the reported detailed energetic, geometric, and electronic structure data we conclude that the governing factor for the molecule-surface interaction is a competition between covalent bonding of the central azo (-N=N-) bridge on the one hand and the surface interaction of the two closed-shell phenyl (-C6H5) rings on the other. With respect to this factor the cis conformer exhibits a more favorable gas-phase geometric structure and is thus more stabilized at the studied surfaces. With the overall binding still rather weak the relative stability of the two isomers is thereby reduced at Ag(111) and Au(111). This is significantly different at Cu(111), where the cis bonding is strong enough to even reverse the gas-phase energetic order at the level of the employed semi-local electronic exchange and correlation (xc) functional. While this actual reversal may well be affected by the deficiencies due to the approximate xc treatment, we critically discuss that the rationalization of the general effect of the surface on the meta-stable molecular states is quite robust. This should equally hold for the presented analysis of recent tip-manipulation and photo-excitation isomerization experiments from the view point of the derived bonding mechanism.

Predicting forest tree species’ fundamental climate niche and productivity
Creators: name: Zhao, Yueru
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Species climate niche models (CNMs) have been widely used for assessing climate change impact and developing adaptation strategies for forestry. However, CNMs built based on species occurrence data reflect only species’ realized niche, which may overestimate the suitable habitat loss of existing forests, underestimate assisted migration potential, and are unable to quantify productivity. To address these deficiencies, my research objectives were to explore modeling approaches aimed at predicting forest species fundamental niche and productivity based on species provenance trials and occurrence data. In chapter 2, a universal response function (URF) was developed for lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. ex Loud.), through comparison and optimization of the best existing modeling approaches, to predict the species’ fundamental climate niche and productivity. This model explained 80 % of the variation among provenance and test sites, and the prediction of fundamental climate niche was validated with global observations with 94.6 % agreement. While this approach is considered ideal, it may not be applicable for many forest tree species due to the lack of comprehensive provenance trials. In the chapter 3, I built a fundamental climate niche model using widely available species occurrence data with lodgepole pine and Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Franco.). I identified a new cut-off threshold of 0.3 and extended the CNMs in predicting realized climate niches to fundamental climate niches, the result presented greater niche gain (up to 187 %) and reduced habitat loss (up to 80 %) by 2050s under a moderate climate change scenario. Similarly in Chapter 4, I investigated the potential to extend occurrence-based CNMs to predict species productivity using lodgepole pine and Douglas-fir as the template species for their comprehensive range-wide occurrence data and availability of site productivity data. The CNMs were optimized through a series of steps, achieves R2 above 0.9 in reflecting measured site productivity and validated with R2 above 0.7 using independent datasets for each species. My research provided crucial tools for evaluating climate change’s impact on species suitable habitat distribution and productivity and holds potential for informed forest management decisions, including conservation and assisted migration aimed at maximizing future productivity and carbon sequestration.

description: The angular coverage extension of the KLOE-2 electromagnetic calorimeter, from a polar angle of 20$^{\circ}$ down to $8^{\circ}$, will increase the multiphoton detection capability of the experiment enhancing the search reach for rare kaon, $η$ and $η'$ prompt decay channels. The basic layout of the calorimeter extension consists of two small barrels of LYSO crystals readout with APD photosensors aiming to achieve a timing resolution between 300 and 500 ps for 20 MeV photons. The first test of a (5.5$\times6\times$13) cm$^3$ prototype for such a detector was carried out in april 2009 at the Beam Test Facility of Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati of INFN with an electron beam from 100 to 500 MeV. In the selected energy range, we measured a light yield of 500$÷$800 p.e./Mev, an energy resolution which can be parametrized as $0.05 \oplus 0.01/({\rm E/GeV}) \oplus 0.015/\sqrt{\rm{E/GeV}}$, a position resolution of 2.8 mm and a timing resolution of 200$÷$300 ps.

Creators: name: Thompson, Christopher L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2008

description: The invasive species Saltcedar is affecting water and land resources throughout the western states of America. Because of great water use capabilities and other ecosystem detriments, Saltcedar has been targeted for treatment. For successful management of Saltcedar, individual landowners need to be aware of the costs and benefits of treating Saltcedar. Eleven of the most commonly reported treatment methods were evaluated for firm level economic feasibility. Evaluated on the basis of treatment cost, treatment effectiveness, Saltcedar water-use, and re-vegetation water-use, a production plan of ten years was created for each treatment method. Some treatment methods required re-treatment and were evaluated with re-treatments most commonly found in the literature. Of the treatment methods evaluated, five treatment methods were determined to be most feasible. Landowner valuation of environmental changes in the ecosystem brought on by Saltcedar is very important in the decision of which treatment method to implement. Personal valuation, over a period of ten years, will often determine which treatment methods are most cost efficient.

description: Bushnell General Military Hospital was an Army World War II hospital in Brigham City, Utah from August 1942 to June 1946. It specialized in treating amputations, maxillofacial surgery, neuropsychiatric conditions, and tropical diseases. It was also one of the first hospitals to experimentally use penicillin. Bushnell was a regional facility for wounded solders from the Mountain States that provided quality medical care to patients. The community of Brigham City and the citizens of other Northern Utah communities were an integral part of the success of Bushnell. Citizens donated time, supplies, and money to support the facility and to assist in the care and rehabilitation of injured GIs. Celebrities also visited Bushnell to promote morale, and some disabled Americans assisted injured patients. The hospital staff, along with Northern Utahns, played an important role in helping to rehabilitate and reintroduce injured soldiers into society. Brigham City was also effected by Bushnell Hospital. One major problem was a shortage of housing in Brigham City, which led citizens to rent to family members of patients in private homes. Another was infrastructure needed to support the hospital. However, the benefits mostly outweighed the problems. The city and surrounding communities benefited from the job growth at Bushnell and in Brigham. Downtown businesses received additional revenue from patrons. Because the hospital came to Brigham City, some citizens also met Japanese Americans and German and Italian POWs in addition to those connected to Bushnell. This led Brigham citizens to develop friendships with people they might have not met otherwise. When the war ended, the subsequent closure of Bushnell General Military Hospital brought these benefits to an end, and Brigham City and other Northern Utahn communities hastened to find a new occupant for the hospital facility to ensure jobs. In 1950, it became the Intermountain Indian School. The school closed in 1984, and now businesses and homes occupy the site.

description: We report on the experimental results of interlayer magnetoresistance in multilayer massless Dirac fermion system $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ under hydrostatic pressure and its interpretation. We succeeded in detecting the zero-mode Landau level (n=0 Landau level) that is epected to appear at the contact points of Dirac cones in the magnetic field normal to the two-dimensional plane. The characteristic feature of zero-mode Landau carriers including the Zeeman effect is clearly seen in the interlayer magnetoresistance.

title: Factors That Influence the Association Between Adult Attachment and Marital Satisfaction
Creators: name: Hatch, Daniel LeRoy
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Adult attachment theory offers a promising conceptual framework for understanding the psychological and contextual factors that contribute to marital satisfaction. A consistent association has been found between adult attachment dimensions and marital satisfaction. The current study examined several mediating mechanisms that may explain the relationship between adult attachment dimensions and marital satisfaction. Specifically, relationship expectations, four types of responses to accommodative dilemmas (exit, neglect, voice, and loyalty), and three forms of empathy (empathic concern, perspective taking, empathic personal distress) were hypothesized to mediate the relationship between adult attachment and marital satisfaction. Self-report data were collected from both partners of 193 heterosexual, married couples. The attachment dimension of avoidance for husbands and wives was consistently associated with each couple member's respective marital satisfaction. Attachment anxiety was never directly associated with either husbands' or wives' marital satisfaction. Wives' marital satisfaction was explained by their own relationship expectations and exit responses. Additionally, wives' marital satisfaction was explained by their husband's relationship expectations, exit responses, empathic perspective taking, and loyalty responses. Husbands' marital satisfaction was explained by their own relationship expectations, exit responses, neglect responses, voice responses, loyalty responses, and empathic perspective taking. Results are discussed in light of current theories of adult attachment and marital satisfaction.

description: The magnetic-field-induced variations of the microwave surface resistance, R_s, have been investigated in ceramic Mg_{1-x}(LiAl)_xB_2, with x in the range 0.1 - 0.4. The measurements have been performed on increasing and decreasing the DC magnetic field, H_0, at fixed temperatures. At low temperatures, we have observed a magnetic hysteresis in the R_s(H_0) curves in all the investigated samples. On increasing the temperature, the range of H_0 in which the hysteretic behavior is visible shrinks; however, in the sample with x = 0.1 it is present up to temperatures close to T_c. We show that the field dependence of R_s can be quantitatively justified taking into account the critical-state effects on the fluxon lattice only in the sample with x = 0.4. On the contrary, in the samples with x < 0.4 the hysteresis exhibits an unusual shape, similar to that observed in others two-gap MgB_2 samples, which cannot be justified in the framework of the critical-state models.

Enhancing cultural safety in forensic interviews during investigations of child abuse : Indigenous perspectives
Creators: name: Ettinger, Tara
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Canada’s child-protection services and systems are based on Eurocentric ideologies, which can pose challenges for children raised within non-Western cultural perspectives. Forensic interviews in particular, can have negative impacts on children who are not from the dominant community culture. Attention is needed on addressing this area of practice in a culturally safe manner. More distinctly, studies to better understand culturally safe, trauma- informed, inclusive practices with Indigenous communities during investigations of child abuse are almost nonexistent. This gap in the literature is extremely concerning, especially when there is the potential of creating further harm during investigational processes to children who may already be suffering from the effects of child abuse and are also compounded with suffering the negative impacts of colonization. The accounts described above highlight the importance of understanding and effectively addressing the magnitude of traumas Indigenous children may be experiencing during disclosures of abuse. Importantly, we need to ask ourselves: What defines practices as as “culturally safe”? This research expands on existing knowledge concerning the deep impacts of colonization on Indigenous children and uses guided conversations with Indigenous community members, Elders, and/or professionals from various communities in British Columbia to explore how might cultural considerations enhance the well-being of Indigenous children and youth during forensic interviews in investigations of child abuse. The participants identified themes within the guided conversations indicating Indigenous children’s needs during investigations of abuse. These themes are expanded upon to demonstrate cultural elements to enhance the well-being of Indigenous children and youth during their disclosures of abuse and within forensic interviews. The dissertation concludes with other considerations for practice, including some cultural elements for workplaces and Child and Youth Advocacy Centres that would demonstrate supportive environments when working with Indigenous populations. Particular practice considerations, visualized through micro, meso, and macro sociological viewpoints, are also demonstrated.

description: Simulated cooling is a robust method for preparing low-energy states of many-body Hamiltonians on near-term quantum simulators. In such schemes, a subset of the simulator's spins (or qubits) are treated as a ``bath,'' which extracts energy and entropy from the system of interest. However, such protocols are inefficient when applied to systems whose excitations are highly non-local in terms of the microscopic degrees of freedom, such as topological phases of matter; such excitations are difficult to extract by a local coupling to a bath. We explore a route to overcome this obstacle by encoding of the microscopic degrees of freedom into those of the quantum simulator in a non-local manner. To illustrate the approach, we show how to efficiently cool the ferromagnetic phase of the quantum Ising model, whose excitations are domain walls, via a ``gauged cooling'' protocol in which the Ising spins are coupled to a $Z_2$ gauge field that simultaneously acts as a reservoir for removing excitations. We show that our protocol can prepare the ground states of the ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases equally efficiently. The gauged cooling protocol naturally extends to (interacting) fermionic systems, where it is equivalent to cooling by coupling to a fermionic bath via single-fermion hopping.

description: In order to evaluate the short-term educational and behavioral impact of the American Heart Association's "Face the Fats" web application had upon college students, a study involving 116 Utah State University undergraduate students was conducted. A one-group pre-posttest design was utilized to answer eight research questions focusing on: health risks associated with trans fat, general trans fat knowledge, ability to identify foods containing trans and saturated fats, food label information, healthy alternatives to trans fat, and readiness to change trans fat intake. Participants completed an online pretest survey and then viewed the "Face the Fats" website at their own pace. After viewing the website, participants completed an online posttest survey. Data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel. Statistical analysis of a paired sample t test revealed that "Face the Fats" was successful in changing the general trans fat knowledge of participants (p = < 0.00). Results also showed participants increasing their knowledge of health risks associated with different types of fat (p = < 0.00). Knowledge of trans fat nutritional information on food labels also significantly increased (p = < 0.00) and participants were more able to name foods containing trans fat, although some confusion remained among foods that contained both saturated and trans fat. Using a chi-square test, it was found that participants were more likely to state they were seriously considering reducing trans fat intake within the next 30 days after viewing "Face the Fats" (p = < 0.00). Results of a paired sample t test also showed an increase in the impact that trans fat information had on participants' decision to purchase and consume food (p = < 0.00).
