Hiv-1 Tat Dysregulates The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Stress Axis And Potentiates Oxycodone-Mediated Psychomotor And Anxiety-Like Behavior Of Male Mice, Mohammed F. Salahuddin, Fakhri Mahdi, Jason J. Paris Nov 2020

Hiv-1 Tat Dysregulates The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Stress Axis And Potentiates Oxycodone-Mediated Psychomotor And Anxiety-Like Behavior Of Male Mice, Mohammed F. Salahuddin, Fakhri Mahdi, Jason J. Paris

Faculty and Student Publications

© 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is associated with co-morbid affective and stress-sensitive neuropsychiatric disorders that may be related to dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) stress axis. The HPA axis is perturbed in up to 46% of HIV patients, but the mechanisms are not known. The neurotoxic HIV-1 regulatory protein, trans-activator of transcription (Tat), may contribute. We hypothesized that HPA dysregulation may contribute to Tat-mediated interactions with oxycodone, a clinically-used opioid often prescribed to HIV patients. In transgenic male mice, Tat expression produced significantly higher basal corticosterone levels with adrenal insufficiency in response …

I’M The One: Social Media, Social Identity, And Elections, Jason Anthony Cain Oct 2020

I’M The One: Social Media, Social Identity, And Elections, Jason Anthony Cain

Faculty and Student Publications

This study surveyed voters to investigate why they shared political information on social media during the 2016 election. A strong social identity informed by political alignment was found to predict both polarization and more sharing, while feeling politically misaligned was found to decrease information sharing, supporting a spiral of silence phenomenon. Those with higher scores on a scale of social identity were more likely to feel sharing information to be an influential activity.


Minority Students In University Remediation: A Phenomenological Analysis Of Their High School And First Semester College Academic Experiences, Savannah L. Kelly Oct 2020

Minority Students In University Remediation: A Phenomenological Analysis Of Their High School And First Semester College Academic Experiences, Savannah L. Kelly

Journal of Contemporary Research in Education

The existence of remedial curriculum at four-year universities remains a well-established, albeit controversial, component of contemporary higher education. Incoming students are required to enroll in postsecondary remedial coursework as a direct result of standardized test scores. It is well established in the literature, however, that minority students both underperform on standardized tests and are also overrepresented in remedial courses. This qualitative study explored the intersections of minority students’ high school academic experiences with their first-semester university academic experiences. The sample included eight minority students who were each enrolled in three remedial and at least one non-remedial course at a public, …

A Mathematical Framework For Estimating Risk Of Airborne Transmission Of Covid-19 With Application To Face Mask Use And Social Distancing, Rajat Mittal, Charles Meneveau, Wen Wu Oct 2020

A Mathematical Framework For Estimating Risk Of Airborne Transmission Of Covid-19 With Application To Face Mask Use And Social Distancing, Rajat Mittal, Charles Meneveau, Wen Wu

Faculty and Student Publications

© 2020 Author(s). A mathematical model for estimating the risk of airborne transmission of a respiratory infection such as COVID-19 is presented. The model employs basic concepts from fluid dynamics and incorporates the known scope of factors involved in the airborne transmission of such diseases. Simplicity in the mathematical form of the model is by design so that it can serve not only as a common basis for scientific inquiry across disciplinary boundaries but it can also be understandable by a broad audience outside science and academia. The caveats and limitations of the model are discussed in detail. The model …
