The Problem of the Subject: The Politics of Post-mortem Rights in the Aftermath of Drug-related Deaths
Creators: name: Seear, Kathryn

name: Madden, A
Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2021
Subjects: Health Care

description: In recent years, drug-related deaths have soared around the world. Some of these are overdose deaths, some are due to state violence as part of the ‘war on drugs’. Images of these deaths are often widely circulated in mainstream and social media. They are mobilised by anti-drug campaigners, anti-prohibitionists, family members seeking to memorialise their loved ones, and researchers. In all of these instances, of course, there is no question about whether the dead can consent to the sharing of such images, for they are no longer alive to do so. Where consent is not possible, how should the sharing of such images be approached? This article explores this issue. We focus on two concepts often mobilised when assessing the validity of post-mortem rights claims: shame, and what we call dignity-as-reputation. Through an analysis of two case studies of drug-related death, we explain why these concepts are an inadequate framework for assessing what is at stake within the specific and unique context of drug-related deaths. We argue that posthumanist legal theory and feminist scholarship on emotions provide an alternative foundation for legal approaches to images of death, and argue that post-mortem rights should be reworked.
Syncope Care Standardization: Study Protocol for the Development and Validation of a Patient Education Tool for the Emergency Department
Creators: name: Leuchtenburg, Jessica
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020
Subjects: Patient education

description: Introduction: This paper expounds a research protocol for the development and validation of a patient education tool for use with syncope patients presenting to the emergency department. Syncope accounts for 1,066,000 yearly visits to US Emergency Departments. The lack of effective risk stratification tools results in wide variation of management and unnecessary hospitalization. Patient education can align patient expectations and reduce pressure for unnecessary tests and treatments.
Methods: We will use a multi-phase, iterative approach to develop and validate a patient education tool. Phase 1 will focus on a needs assessment to develop an alpha tool. I will conduct semi-structured qualitative interviews with key stakeholders and code the responses to determine patient and provider preferences. I will assess the tool with the Fry Readability method and the CDC Clear Communication Index. Phase 2 consists of content and construct validation through interviews with external experts and end-users. Finally, phase 3 is field testing of the developed patient education tool.
Discussion: There is a gap in the literature regarding outcomes related to patient education in syncope care. This study lays out the methods for the development of this patient education and validation of the outcomes. The project is one arm of a macrosystem quality improvement project aiming to increase the appropriate use of hospital resources for syncope care. The aim is to align better patient fears and expectations with the reality of appropriate and available testing and follow up for their condition.

description: Presence of magnetism in potentially altermagnetic RuO$_2$ has been a subject of intense debate. Using broadband infrared spectroscopy combined with density-functional band-structure calculations, we show that optical conductivity of RuO$_2$, the bulk probe of its electronic structure, is well described by the nonmagnetic model of this material. The sharp Pauli edge demonstrates the presence of a Dirac nodal line lying 45 meV below the Fermi level. Good match between the experimental and ab initio plasma frequencies underpins weakness of electronic correlations. The intraband part of the optical conductivity indicates Fermi-liquid behavior with two distinct scattering rates below 150 K. Fermi-liquid theory also accounts for the temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility of RuO$_2$ and allows a consistent description of this material as paramagnetic metal.

description: We investigate the influence of modified growth conditions during the spontaneous formation of GaN nanowires on Si(111) in plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. We find that a two-step growth approach, where the substrate temperature is increased during the nucleation stage, is an efficient method to gain control over the area coverage, average diameter, and coalescence degree of GaN nanowire ensembles. Furthermore, we also demonstrate that the growth conditions employed during the incubation time that precedes nanowire nucleation do not influence the properties of the final nanowire ensemble. Therefore, when growing GaN nanowires at elevated temperatures or with low Ga/N ratios, the total growth time can be reduced significantly by using more favorable growth conditions for nanowire nucleation during the incubation time.

description: Robeson County ranks last in North Carolina in its health factors and outcomes with its barriers being attributed to the existing economic and health disparities impacted by the built environment. Low income residents lack access to quality housing and are at risk of living in severe housing conditions that worsens their health outcomes. The reduction in the prevalence of substandard housing by addressing lead hazards is a strategy to address the severe housing problem. By using water sources to identify blood lead levels as the criteria for safety, Keys for Community (KFC) as an Accountable Care Community project, aims to increase safety in affordable housing in Robeson County by partnering with key stakeholders to identify and address elevated lead levels in plumbing sources that contribute to higher rates of exposure among young minority children.

description: We consider modifications of Manin symbols in first homology groups of modular curves with p-adic integer coefficients for an odd prime p. We show that these symbols generate homology in primitive eigenspaces for the action of diamond operators, with a certain condition on the eigenspace that can be removed on Eisenstein parts. We apply this to prove the integrality of maps taking compatible systems of Manin symbols to compatible systems of zeta elements. In the work of the first two authors on an Iwasawa-theoretic conjecture of the third author, these maps are constructed with certain bounded denominators. As a consequence, their main result on the conjecture was proven after inverting p, and the results of this paper allow one to remove this condition.

Becoming posthuman: hepatitis C, the race to elimination and the politics of remaking the subject
Creators: name: Seear, Kathryn

Publisher: name: La Trobe

Subjects: Health Care

description: Hepatitis C has long been a public health problem in Australia. ‘Revolutionary’ new drugs with the potential to cure hepatitis C have now emerged. The Australian government has invested heavily in them, and has an ambitious goal to eliminate hepatitis C by 2030. Numerous shifts in policy and practice are required if the elimination agenda is to be realised. This paper explores the significance of these shifts. We ask: what is the race to elimination doing with the subject? We argue that the race to elimination can be understood, simultaneously, as a product of posthuman forces, capable of being analysed using the theoretical tools made available via the posthuman turn; producing an intervention in what it means to be human; and generating a dilemma for people who use (or used) drugs, people with hepatitis C, and posthuman scholarship. In drawing out these issues, we aim to: trace the significant developments underway in hepatitis C medicine and raise awareness of them; encourage reflection on the consequences of these developments; and invite reflections on what might be lost when the human is remade by hepatitis C medicine.

description: There is a growing interest in adopting object technologies for the development of real-time control systems. Several commercial tools, currently available, provide object-oriented modeling and design support for real-time control systems. While these products provide many useful facilities, such as visualization tools and automatic code generation, they are all weak in addressing the central characteristic of real-time control systems design, i.e., providing support for a designer to reason about timeliness properties. We believe an approach that integrates the advancements in both object modeling and design methods and real-time scheduling theory is the key to successful use of object technology for real-time software. Surprisingly several past approaches to integrate the two either restrict the object models, or do not allow sophisticated schedulability analysis techniques. This study shows how schedulability analysis can be integrated with UML for Real-Time (UML-RT) to deal with timing properties in real time control systems. More specifically, we develop the schedulability and feasibility analysis modeling for the external messages that may suffer release jitter due to being dispatched by a tick driven scheduler in real-time control system and we also develop the scheduliablity modeling for sporadic activities, where messages arrive sporadically then execute periodically for some bounded time. This method can be used to cope with timing constraints in realistic and complex real-time control systems. Using this method, a designer can quickly evaluate the impact of various implementation decisions on schedulability. In conjunction with automatic code-generation, we believe that this will greatly streamline the design and development of real-time control systems software.

description: Community gardens have been used to alleviate hunger and provide economic relief throughout history, and often used during economic downtowns in the U.S. Today, they exist as a way to revitalize communities or help the environment. The purpose of this paper is to explore findings with respect to the association between community gardens and health promotion. Methods included researching two databases with terms relating to both community gardens and health promotion. Twenty studies were then selected for the purposes of this paper. Results showed that community gardens show positive associations with a variety of health promotion outcomes in different populations. In conclusion, community gardens are an effective tool for improving health promotion outcomes across a variety of populations.

description: The ionic atmospheres around nucleic acids play important roles in biological function. Large-scale explicit solvent simulations coupled to experimental assays such as anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering (ASAXS) can provide important insights into the structure and energetics of such atmospheres but are time- and resource-intensive. In this paper, we use classical density functional theory (cDFT) to explore the balance between ion-DNA, ion-water, and ion-ion interactions in ionic atmospheres of RbCl, SrCl$_2$, and CoHexCl$_3$ (cobalt hexammine chloride) around a B-form DNA molecule. The accuracy of the cDFT calculations was assessed by comparison between simulated and experimental ASAXS curves, demonstrating that an accurate model should take into account ion-ion correlation and ion hydration forces, DNA topology, and the discrete distribution of charges on DNA strands. As expected, these calculations revealed significant differences between monovalent, divalent, and trivalent cation distributions around DNA. About half of the DNA-bound Rb$^+$ ions penetrate into the minor groove of the DNA and half adsorb on the DNA strands. The fraction of cations in the minor groove decreases for the larger Sr$^{2+}$ ions and becomes zero for CoHex$^{3+}$ ions, which all adsorb on the DNA strands. The distribution of CoHex$^{3+}$ ions is mainly determined by Coulomb and steric interactions, while ion-correlation forces play a central role in the monovalent Rb$^+$ distribution and a combination of ion-correlation and hydration forces affect the Sr$^{2+}$ distribution around DNA.

description: This paper presents SunPy (version 0.5), a community-developed Python package for solar physics. Python, a free, cross-platform, general-purpose, high-level programming language, has seen widespread adoption among the scientific community, resulting in the availability of a large number of software packages, from numerical computation (NumPy, SciPy) and machine learning (scikit-learn) to visualisation and plotting (matplotlib). SunPy is a data-analysis environment specialising in providing the software necessary to analyse solar and heliospheric data in Python. SunPy is open-source software (BSD licence) and has an open and transparent development workflow that anyone can contribute to. SunPy provides access to solar data through integration with the Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO), the Heliophysics Event Knowledgebase (HEK), and the HELiophysics Integrated Observatory (HELIO) webservices. It currently supports image data from major solar missions (e.g., SDO, SOHO, STEREO, and IRIS), time-series data from missions such as GOES, SDO/EVE, and PROBA2/LYRA, and radio spectra from e-Callisto and STEREO/SWAVES. We describe SunPy's functionality, provide examples of solar data analysis in SunPy, and show how Python-based solar data-analysis can leverage the many existing tools already available in Python. We discuss the future goals of the project and encourage interested users to become involved in the planning and development of SunPy.

Exploring Intuitive Eating in the Adolescent Population
Creators: name: Kleppe, Allison
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Intuitive eating is an adaptive eating style that promotes a healthy relationship with food rather than disordered eating behaviors. Intuitive eating has been linked to positive outcomes in adulthood, including less disordered eating, greater emotional functioning, and positive body image, among others. Adolescence is a time period when this healthy relationship with food can be developed through intuitive eating behaviors, and these behaviors can be carried into adulthood. Adolescence is also a time identified as a risk period for the development of eating pathology and clinical eating disorders. The purpose of this paper was to explore intuitive eating among the adolescent population, including a look at disordered eating, predictors and impacts of intuitive eating, and successful interventions teaching intuitive eating. Many predictors are identified that may increase intuitive eating behaviors among adolescents along with the positive impacts of these intuitive eating behaviors. A focus should be put on creating interventions that teach intuitive eating behaviors to adolescents to increase intuitive eating behaviors in this population. The impact of intuitive eating and predictors should be taken into account by all who interact with adolescents.

Eating Disorder and Mental Health: Anorexia Nervosa and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder as Comorbidities
Creators: name: Kang, Cindy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is a psychiatric disorder that has the highest mortality rate among all mental illnesses. People with AN follow a rigid diet with severe calorie restrictions leading to significantly low weight for age, sex, growth trajectory, and physical health. These malnourished individuals typically have a very low body mass index (BMI) or BMI percentile and have a weight that is “less than minimally normal or expected.” One of the most prevalent psychiatric comorbidities of AN is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Although AN and OCD appear in separate diagnostic categories, they include similar cognitive, behavioral, and personality characteristics. Given the common characteristics shared by AN and OCD, it is not surprising that many medical professionals confuse one for the other leading to a misdiagnosis. Due to the commonalities between the two disorders, it is important for clinicians to complete a meticulous examination of the exhibited behaviors and related motivations. In the light of diagnosis, treatment, and management, it is important to distinguish true OCD manifestations from obsessive and compulsive thoughts and behaviors related to eating disorders. Knowledge and understanding of how different diseases co-occur will help clarify the differences in the diagnosis, psychopathology, and etiology between comorbidities. This paper presents the case of a patient with a history of OCD, social anxiety, and depression who was newly diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, restricting type leading to an inpatient eating disorders unit admission for further weight restoration and medical monitoring of refeeding. The registered dietitian played a crucial role in the multidisciplinary treatment team and provided appropriate nutrition care that addressed the involved complications.

description: There is renewed interest in formulating integration as an inference problem, motivated by obtaining a full distribution over numerical error that can be propagated through subsequent computation. Current methods, such as Bayesian Quadrature, demonstrate impressive empirical performance but lack theoretical analysis. An important challenge is to reconcile these probabilistic integrators with rigorous convergence guarantees. In this paper, we present the first probabilistic integrator that admits such theoretical treatment, called Frank-Wolfe Bayesian Quadrature (FWBQ). Under FWBQ, convergence to the true value of the integral is shown to be exponential and posterior contraction rates are proven to be superexponential. In simulations, FWBQ is competitive with state-of-the-art methods and out-performs alternatives based on Frank-Wolfe optimisation. Our approach is applied to successfully quantify numerical error in the solution to a challenging model choice problem in cellular biology.

This case study describes an initiative to promote spiritual wellness on a public state college campus and demonstrates evidence of the effectiveness of taking a community-based approach. We employed the community readiness model to develop an initiative to promote spiritual wellness in a Midwestern state university. We recruited informants through purposeful sampling and conducted interviews, both pre- and post-initiative launch. Baseline data was used to inform initiative efforts. The community’s level of readiness to promote spiritual wellness increased from stage three, vague awareness, at baseline to stage six, initiation, at follow up. Although these findings are specific to our community, this communitybased participatipatory research approach may be an effective way of developing appropriate strategies to promoting spiritual practices throughout higher education.

description: Defects in silicon carbide are of intense and increasing interest for quantum-based applications due to this material's properties and technological maturity. We calculate the multi-particle symmetry adapted wave functions of the negatively charged silicon vacancy defect in hexagonal silicon carbide via use of group theory and density functional theory and find the effects of spin-orbit and spin-spin interactions on these states. Although we focused on $\textrm{V}_{\textrm{Si}}^-$ in 4H-SiC, because of its unique fine structure due to odd number of active electrons, our methods can be easily applied to other defect centers of different polytpes, especially to the 6H-SiC. Based on these results we identify the mechanism that polarizes the spin under optical drive, obtain the ordering of its dark doublet states, point out a path for electric field or strain sensing, and find the theoretical value of its ground-state zero field splitting to be 68 MHz, in good agreement with experiment. Moreover, we present two distinct protocols of a spin-photon interface based on this defect. Our results pave the way toward novel quantum information and quantum metrology applications with silicon carbide.

description: Although quartz ($\rm α$-form) is a mineral used in numerous applications wherein radiation exposure is an issue, the nature of the atomistic defects formed during radiation-induced damage have not been fully clarified. Especially, the extent of oxygen vacancy formation is still debated, which is an issue of primary importance as optical techniques based on charged oxygen vacancies have been utilized to assess the level of radiation damage in quartz. In this paper, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are applied to study the effects of ballistic impacts on the atomic network of quartz. We show that the defects that are formed mainly consist of over-coordinated Si and O, as well as Si--O connectivity defects, e.g., small Si--O rings and edge-sharing Si tetrahedra. Oxygen vacancies, on the contrary, are found in relatively low abundance, suggesting that characterizations based on $E^{\prime}$ centers do not adequately capture radiation-induced structural damage in quartz. Finally, we evaluate the dependence on the incident energy, of the amount of each type of the point defects formed, and quantify unambiguously the threshold displacement energies for both O and Si atoms. These results provide a comprehensive basis to assess the nature and extent of radiation damage in quartz.

description: This thesis evaluates the societal impact of Social Media platforms since they became ubiquitous. While Social Media platforms can greatly benefit society and promote human rights, they also spawn a myriad of frightening consequences that result in horrific violations of human rights. While the benefits of Social media are undeniable, the technology spawns a great deal of problems for society that remain without a solution. First, Section 1 defines ‘Social Media’ and analyzes the role of Social Media platforms within society at large. The drastic communications paradigm shift caused by the widespread adoption of Social Media lay the foundations for sections 2 and 3. Section 2 investigates the role Social Media platforms have in the creation of information disorder. Finally Section 3 reviews some of the worst consequences of the communications paradigm shift, radicalization and the incitement of extremist violence.

Food security

description: College students experience basic needs insecurity, including food and housing insecurity, at a higher rate than the overall U.S. population. This issue has serious negative implications for student health and academic outcomes, which in turn negatively impacts their institutions of higher education. Due to increased awareness of student basic needs insecurity, institutions of higher education have started addressing this issue in multiple ways but there is limited research assessing the process, outcomes, and impact of these interventions. 

This report details the extent of basic needs insecurity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill through comparison to national and state data and considers the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on this issue. To explore what is being done to combat basic needs insecurity at institutions of higher education, I conducted and in-depth review of peer-reviewed and grey literature on commonly recommended intervention strategies. The report describes available evidence supporting the creation of centralized resource hubs, development of SNAP application supports, acceptance of EBT on campus, use of campus food pantries, and disbursement of meal vouchers to address student basic needs. 

The findings emphasize that there are many strategies to address basic needs insecurity, but no one intervention fully resolves this issue and more research is needed to evaluate outcomes of, best practices for, essential components of, and synergies between interventions.

description: A discovery of the flavor violating decay h --> tau mu at the LHC would require extra sources of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) beyond the Higgs in order to reconcile it with the bounds from tau --> mu gamma, barring fine-tuned cancellations. In fact, an h --> tau mu decay rate at a level indicated by the CMS measurement is easily realized if the muon and electron masses are due to a new source of EWSB, while the tau mass is due to the Higgs. We illustrate this with two examples: a two Higgs doublet model, and a model in which the Higgs is partially composite, with EWSB triggered by a technicolor sector. The 1st and 2nd generation quark masses and CKM mixing can also be assigned to the new EWSB source. Large deviations in the flavor diagonal lepton and quark Higgs Yukawa couplings are generic. If the muon mass is due to a rank 1 mass matrix contribution, a novel Yukawa coupling sum rule holds, providing a precision test of our framework. Flavor violating quark and lepton (pseudo)scalar couplings combine to yield a sizable B_s --> tau mu decay rate, which could be O(100) times larger than the SM B_s --> mu mu decay rate.

description: Ellerman bombs (EBs) are tiny brightenings often observed near sunspots. The most impressive characteristic of the EB spectra is the two emission bumps in both wings of the H$α$ and \ion{Ca}{II} 8542 Å lines. High-resolution spectral data of three small EBs were obtained on 2013 June 6 with the largest solar telescope, the 1.6 meter New Solar Telescope (NST), at the Big Bear Solar Observatory. The characteristics of these EBs are analyzed. The sizes of the EBs are in the range of 0.3\arcsec\--0.8\arcsec\ and their durations are only 3--5 minutes. Our semi-empirical atmospheric models indicate that the heating occurs around the temperature minimum region with a temperature increase of 2700--3000 K, which is surprisingly higher than previously thought. The radiative and kinetic energies are estimated to be as high as 5$\times$10$^{25}$--3.0$\times$10$^{26}$ ergs despite the small size of these EBs. Observations of the magnetic field show that the EBs appeared just in a parasitic region with mixed polarities and accompanied by mass motions. Nonlinear force-free field extrapolation reveals that the three EBs are connected with a series of magnetic field lines associated with bald patches, which strongly implies that these EBs should be produced by magnetic reconnection in the solar lower atmosphere. According to the lightcurves and the estimated magnetic reconnection rate, we propose that there is a three phase process in EBs: pre-heating, flaring and cooling phases.
