Exploring geographic proximity to fast-food restaurants and convenience stores with dental caries in patients at the University of Nevada Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine
Creators: name: Hill, Charles K.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: Dental caries is present worldwide and has afflicted over 90% of all adults in the United States. Biological determinants of the disease are well understood but social determinants and how they interact with biological factors are not. Programs designed to reduce incidence and prevalence of caries often target certain individuals and involve behavioral change. Some programs are more successful when environmental and societal issues are also addressed (Watt, 2002). Biological and behavioral processes leading to caries should include the modification of social factors to enhance results of prevention programs designed to reduce caries in populations. Preventing disease comes not only from treating individuals but also from the modification of environmental factors facilitating disease occurrence along with community education.
This project examined whether the relationship between the prevalence of dental caries among patients at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine and the number of fast-food and convenience stores within a one-half mile and one mile distance from their place of residence. One goal was to map the distribution of caries for the dental school patient population by geographic region using their place of residence.
The other goal was to determine if a relationship existed between prevalence of dental caries in patients and the location of fast-food and convenience stores based on geographic data. It is anticipated that future research will provide an exploration of the social determinants of caries in the dental school patient population and development of programs designed to reduce oral health disease and inequalities. Analysis of the demographics and caries percentage of the dental school patient population revealed patients live across the entire Las Vegas community and dental caries is widespread. Combined with the significant relationship between convenience stores within one mile of patient residence and caries percentage, this information should aid future research and dental school patient education.

2d Index and Surface operators

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we compute the superconformal index of 2d (2,2) supersymmetric gauge theories. The 2d superconformal index, a.k.a. flavored elliptic genus, is computed by a unitary matrix integral much like the matrix integral that computes 4d superconformal index. We compute the 2d index explicitly for a number of examples. In the case of abelian gauge theories we see that the index is invariant under flop transition and CY-LG correspondence. The index also provides a powerful check of the Seiberg-type duality for non-abelian gauge theories discovered by Hori and Tong. In the later half of the paper, we study half-BPS surface operators in N=2 superconformal gauge theories. They are engineered by coupling the 2d (2,2) supersymmetric gauge theory living on the support of the surface operator to the 4d N=2 theory, so that different realizations of the same surface operator with a given Levi type are related by a 2d analogue of the Seiberg duality. The index of this coupled system is computed by using the tools developed in the first half of the paper. The superconformal index in the presence of surface defect is expected to be invariant under generalized S-duality. We demonstrate that it is indeed the case. In doing so the Seiberg-type duality of the 2d theory plays an important role.

description: Various bioactive compounds were extensively found at different levels in many medicinal plants. This study mainly focuses on identification and separation of antioxidants from the different extract of leaves of Melia dubia. Soxhlet extraction was adopted for extraction using solvents namely hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol, water and 70% ethanol. Anti-oxidant capacity of six extracts was analyzed by quick and convenient DPPH method. Extracts which possess high scavenging activity were taken for separation and are achieved by chromatographic techniques, then, characterized by spectral methods. Compound owing highest antioxidant efficacy were tested for its inhibitory potential against Urolithiatic activity via In-silico and In-vitro analysis. On antioxidant activity the methanol and 70% ethanol extracts revealed greater antioxidant potential from which two antioxidants were isolated and characterized namely MDL-1 and MDL-2. The antioxidant MDL-1 exhibited highest scavenging potential than MDL-2 and its antiurolithiatic potentials were confirmed with molecular docking (In-silico) as well as single diffusion gel method (In-vitro).

description: In 2003-2012, the INTEGRAL observatory has performed long-term observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). At present, this is one of the deepest hard X-ray (20-60 keV) surveys of extragalactic fields in which more than 20 sources of different natures have been detected. We present the results of a statistical analysis of the population of high-mass X-ray binaries in the LMC and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) observed in its direction. The hard X-ray luminosity function of high-mass X-ray binaries is shown to be described by a power law with a slope alpha~1.8, that in agreement with the luminosity function measurements both in the LMC itself, but made in the soft X-ray energy band, and in other galaxies. At the same time, the number of detected AGNs toward the LMC turns out to be considerably smaller than the number of AGNs registered in other directions, in particular, toward the source 3C 273. The latter confirms the previously made assumption that the distribution of matter in the local Universe is nonuniform.

description: In this paper, we propose a general kth correlation coefficient between the density function and distribution function of a continuous variable as a measure of symmetry and asymmetry. We first propose a root-n moment-based estimator of the kth correlation coefficient and present its asymptotic results. Next, we consider statistical inference of the kth correlation coefficient by using the empirical likelihood (EL) method. The EL statistic is shown to be asymptotically a standard chi-squared distribution. Last, we propose a residual-based estimator of the kth correlation coefficient for a parametric regression model to test whether the density function of the true model error is symmetric or not. We present the asymptotic results of the residual-based kth correlation coefficient estimator and also construct its EL-based confidence intervals. Simulation studies are conducted to examine the performance of the proposed estimators, and we also use our proposed estimators to analyze the air quality dataset.

description: In this paper we consider a simple cooperative network consisting of a source, a destination and a cluster of decode-and-forward half-duplex relays. At each time-slot, the source and (possibly) one of the relays transmit a packet to another relay and the destination, respectively, resulting in inter-relay interference (IRI). In this work, with the aid of buffers at the relays, we mitigate the detrimental effect of IRI through interference cancellation. More specifically, we propose the min-power scheme that minimizes the total energy expenditure per time slot under an IRI cancellation scheme. Apart from minimizing the energy expenditure, the min-power selection scheme, also provides better throughput and lower outage probability than existing works in the literature. It is the first time that interference cancellation is combined with buffer-aided relays and power adaptation to mitigate the IRI and minimize the energy expenditure. The new relay selection policy is analyzed in terms of outage probability and diversity, by modeling the evolution of the relay buffers as a Markov Chain (MC). We construct the state transition matrix of the MC, and hence obtain the steady state with which we can characterize the outage probability. The proposed scheme outperforms relevant state-of-the-art relay selection schemes in terms of throughput, diversity and energy efficiency, as demonstrated via examples.

description: Deep HST broad-band images taken with ACS and WFPC2 of the giant ($\sim 1000$ AU diameter) dark silhouette proplyd 114-426 in the Orion Nebula show that this system is tilted, asymmetric, warped and photoevaporated. The exquisite angular resolution of ACS allows us to map the distribution of dust grains at the northern translucent edge of the disk, dominated by the photoevaporative flow. Using the Mie theory for standard circumstellar disk grains, we find evidence for a spatial gradient in grain size. The typical dust radius, $\simeq 0.2-0.7 μ$m (less than what reported by previous studies) becomes smaller as the distance from the disk center increases, consistent with the expectations for the dynamic of dust entrained in a gaseous photoevaporative wind. Our analysis of the disk morphology and location within the nebula indicates that this system is photoevaporated by the diffuse radiation field of the Orion Nebula, while being shielded from the radiation coming directly from the central Trapezium stars. We estimate the mass-loss rate from the disk surface and the time-scale for total disk dissipation, which turns out to be of the order of $10^4$yr. Such a short time, of the order of 1/100 of the cluster age, indicates that this system is seen on the verge of destruction. This is compatible with the exceptional nature of the disk, namely its combination of huge size and low mass. Finally, we briefly discuss the viability of possible mechanisms that may lead to the peculiar morphology of this system: external UV flux, binary star and past close encounter.

description: The use of multivariate classifiers, especially neural networks and decision trees, has become commonplace in particle physics. Typically, a series of classifiers is trained rather than just one to enhance the performance; this is known as boosting. This paper presents a novel method of boosting that produces a uniform selection efficiency in a user-defined multivariate space. Such a technique is ideally suited for amplitude analyses or other situations where optimizing a single integrated figure of merit is not what is desired.

description: We focus on inducing topological state from regular, or irregular scattering in (i) p-wave superconducting wires and (ii) Rashba wires proximity coupled to an s-wave superconductor. We find that contrary to common expectations the topological properties of both systems are fundamentally different: In p-wave wires, disorder generally has a detrimental effect on the topological order and the topological state is destroyed beyond a critical disorder strength. In contrast, in Rashba wires, which are relevant for recent experiments, disorder can {\it induce} topological order, reducing the need for quasiballistic samples to obtain Majorana fermions. Moreover, we find that the total phase space area of the topological state is conserved for long disordered Rashba wires, and can even be increased in an appropriately engineered superlattice potential.

title: Evaluation of a 3-dimensional inertial tracking system for quantifying human movement
Creators: name: DeLion, David T.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to evaluate an inertial tracking unit (ITU) by comparing it to an optical tracking system. The ITU was attached to a bowling ball along with reflective markers for the optical system. Each trial started with the ball at rest on a pedestal the ball was then hung from a steel cable 10 feet long and set in motion in an elliptical pattern for approximately 25 seconds. The ball was then removed from the cable and returned to the pedestal so as to end each trial at rest. This was repeated 10 times with 5 trials chosen for analysis. A 10 second section starting with the ball at rest was taken from each data set for analysis. Maximum and minimum values for position and acceleration were compared between the two systems. Correlation coefficient and Root Mean Square were calculated for position and acceleration between the two systems. Maximum and minimum displacements in the Z plane were different between the two systems, while maximum acceleration in the Y plane and maximum and minimum acceleration in the Z plane were different. Only acceleration in the Z plane was strongly correlated between the two systems. As configured for this experiment the ITU did not reliably track the same motion as the optical system most likely due to slight misalignment of the gyroscopes.

A New socialist world in Latin America?
Creators: name: Ramos, Dana R.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: During the last decade, the left-turn, or pink tide, in Latin America has caused many scholars to seek to explain what has fueled the political gains of leftist parties in this region. One of the main challenges is to try and define what constitutes a leftist party or a left agenda. There is a wide spectrum when it comes to classifying left-right placement ideologies and the distinction may be based on both economic and social values' differences. This study will examine a number of competing theories concerning left-right placement of three case studies: Bolivia, Venezuela, and Colombia. These three case studies were chosen based on their current left-right ideological placement. My original intent was to have five countries that varied on the left-right spectrum but in the essence of time, three case studies were ultimately chosen. Brazil would have been a case study to analyze but the indigenous movement in Bolivia has made significant progress and I felt this case study was worth analyzing at a deeper level. Drawing upon data provided by the Latin American Public Opinion Project (LAPOP) and the case study literature, I examine the influence of socioeconomic and ethnic cleavages, economic ideology, and evaluations of economic performance.
I found all of the theories were supported by some of the statistical models; however, not all of the variables were applicable in each country case study. In the Bolivian model, most of the variables were significant in explaining left-right placement. The two key theories that were applicable in this case study was social structural cleavage theory, pertaining to the indigenous variable and social values theory (worker, church attendance, education, and income). For the Venezuelan model there were two variables that reflected to be significant (church attendance and age). Again, the social cleavage and values theory was pertinent to this case study. Lastly for the Colombian model, the four variables that were significant were public ownership, worker, secondary education, and age. The Social values theory was also pertinent in this case study. In addition, the case studies of Bolivia and Venezuela supported the economic voting theory and institutional decay by demonstrating when the right failed to produce economic benefits with the neoliberal agenda, the citizens were more in favor of voting in a left party regime.

description: There is a continual debate between individuals who attempt to measure the individual's right to privacy against the government's right to know in order to provide for the security of all citizens.
The questions that beg to be answered are whether the individual's right to privacy outweighs the government's duty to provide security; and if security is deemed more important, can there even be a right to privacy. It is critical to our nation's anti-terrorism effort that our intelligence agencies possess the legal capacity to intercept all forms of communications utilized by terrorists and hostile intelligence agents. Inevitably this will lead to less privacy for everyone as a whole and the examination that follows will discuss the changes in the legal right to privacy that followed September 11, 2001.
In light of the diminished personal freedoms in this post 9/11 world, we need to study the right to privacy if we are to determine what the boundaries of personal freedom are. It is necessary to reiterate the importance of the right to privacy and its reinforcement of human dignity. Both philosophical and legal arguments that support the right toprivacy put forth human dignity as the driving focus and underlying principle for privacy. There is an inherent need for dignity and self-respect in every human being, and the right to privacy acknowledges and (one hopes) protects this need. It is important to be vigilant in studying the documentation of the strengthening or lessening of this right with regards to everyday life as well as the governmental impact of changing laws. Finally it serves to examine whether the government can continue to provide a "safe" way of life for its citizens by sacrificing the privacy of those same citizens (with safety as the primary priority), or is safety an excuse for this invasion, in essence an abuse of power with safety an essentially irrelevant issue.
The purpose of the study is to focus primarily on the legal and practical arguments for and against the right to privacy. The goal is to understand whether the human right to privacy should exist in light of the continued threat of terrorist attack (foreign and domestic) and the general public safety. Should an individual's right to privacy outweigh society's right to safety (in both physical and economic matters)? Is it even possible for privacy as it is traditionally defined to continue to exist? Existing case law will be looked at along with its impact in changing legislation (if any). Social contract theory will also be used to further define the government's role in providing security for its citizens and the implications that represents in daily life.

A Cultural Perspective on Motivation Factors Affecting Exhibition Participation
Creators: name: Lee, Young Ki
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: With increasing global competitions, more opportunities transcending national boundaries may exist for the exhibition organizers and participants. This study offered an integrated approach to understanding how various motivation factors affect the participation in exhibition. The literature review included an introduction of push/pull motivation theories as one of the most representative motivation theories. The factor analysis of survey results supported the categorization of push/pull factors in exhibition industry. The paper concluded that the factor analysis procedures yielded the motivation factor dimensions with similar natures and four underlined motivation dimensions of exhibition participation were labeled. Furthermore, the cultural difference between Western and Eastern participants was examined to employ differentiated strategies in promoting exhibitions.

Intrinsic electron spin relaxation due to the D'yakonov-Perel' mechanism in monolayer MoS$_2$

description: Intrinsic electron spin relaxation due to the D'yakonov-Perel' mechanism is studied in monolayer Molybdenum Disulphide. An intervalley in-plane spin relaxation channel is revealed due to the opposite effective magnetic fields perpendicular to the monolayer Molybdenum Disulphide plane in the two valleys together with the intervalley electron-phonon scattering. The intervalley electron-phonon scattering is always in the weak scattering limit, which leads to a rapid decrease of the in-plane spin relaxation time with increasing temperature. A decrease of the in-plane spin relaxation time with the increase of the electron density is also shown.

Convergence and prediction of principal component scores in high-dimensional settings

Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: A number of settings arise in which it is of interest to predict Principal Component (PC) scores for new observations using data from an initial sample. In this paper, we demonstrate that naive approaches to PC score prediction can be substantially biased toward 0 in the analysis of large matrices. This phenomenon is largely related to known inconsistency results for sample eigenvalues and eigenvectors as both dimensions of the matrix increase. For the spiked eigenvalue model for random matrices, we expand the generality of these results, and propose bias-adjusted PC score prediction. In addition, we compute the asymptotic correlation coefficient between PC scores from sample and population eigenvectors. Simulation and real data examples from the genetics literature show the improved bias and numerical properties of our estimators.

Determining the long-term impact of contracting COVID-19 on cognitive ability.

subject: Response Inhibition

description: To study the consequences of COVID-19, cognitive ability was examined by recording the accuracy and reaction times on the Eriksen Flanker Task. Participants were asked if they had previously contracted COVID-19 and retrospectively sorted into one of two groups: “non-COVID” (control) and “COVID” (experimental). A total of 103 individuals participated and completed the study with 23 of the participants having previously contracted COVID-19. The impact COVID-19 was examined and it was found that those who had contracted COVID-19 performed significantly worse on the Eriksen Flanker Task for both accuracy and reaction times when compared to those who had not contracted COVID-19. These results suggest that contracting COVID-19 leads to a decline in response inhibition and could potentially affect other cognitive abilities.

description: A smallest amount of petrol adulterated with kerosene can cause adverse effect on the functioning of a vehicle engine. In this work, a simple, low cost, sensitive and miniature sensor based on fiber optic coupler and an optoelectronic detection system is developed. The sensor is modeled and simulated. It is found that the present sensor is capable of detecting less than 5 percent of kerosene adulteration in petrol. It is capable of detecting 1 percent variation in the adulteration. The sensor has micrometer dimension.

Quantitative K-Theory Related to Spin Chern Numbers

description: We examine the various indices defined on pairs of almost commuting unitary matrices that can detect pairs that are far from commuting pairs. We do this in two symmetry classes, that of general unitary matrices and that of self-dual matrices, with an emphasis on quantitative results. We determine which values of the norm of the commutator guarantee that the indices are defined, where they are equal, and what quantitative results on the distance to a pair with a different index are possible. We validate a method of computing spin Chern numbers that was developed with Hastings and only conjectured to be correct. Specifically, the Pfaffian-Bott index can be computed by the "log method" for commutator norms up to a specific constant.
