A Comparison Of Dental Practitioners' Knowledge Of The Adverse Oral Effects Of Pharmaceuticals; Specifically, Low-Dose Methotrexate, Diltiazem, Cyclosporine, Istretinoin, And Lisinopril, Melissa Van Witzenburg

Dental Hygiene ETDs

There are more than 15, 000 approved prescription and over-the-counter drugs, diagnostics, and intravenous supplementation products in the United States. Due to the increased number of patients using medications it is important that dental providers are aware of common adverse oral complications. The most commonly seen adverse oral effects of medications are xerostomia, gingival hypertrophy, angular cheilitis, and mucositis. The purpose of this study was to examine dental providers, subjects' knowledge of adverse oral effects of low-dose methotrexate, diltiazem, cyclosporine, isotretinoin, and lisinopril. Four of the five hypotheses tested demonstrated high P-values, therefore; they were consistent with the null hypothesis. …

Ecological Constraints And Life History Tradeoffs Among Human Foragers And Their Prey, Oskar Burger May 2009

Ecological Constraints And Life History Tradeoffs Among Human Foragers And Their Prey, Oskar Burger

Anthropology ETDs

This dissertation attempts to identify ecological relationships useful for understanding large-scale patterns in human-environment interaction that can be applied to archaeological studies. It uses three established bodies of theory to understand ecological constraints and life history tradeoffs, applying the same basic framework to human adaptations and the demographic trends of other mammals. First, a model from optimal foraging theory (the marginal value theorem), which posits a tradeoff between resource availability and resource processing, is applied to zooarchaeology to understand human butchery patterns. Humans tend to butcher prey according to the predictions of the model in both ethnographic and archaeological settings: …


Health Disparities For Adults With Developmental Disabilities: Exploration Of Health Promotion Services, Systems And Strategies., Mary Thelander Hill, Teresa Esquerra, Betsey Vanleit, Leslie Hoelzel, Robert Hobbs Apr 2009

Health Disparities For Adults With Developmental Disabilities: Exploration Of Health Promotion Services, Systems And Strategies., Mary Thelander Hill, Teresa Esquerra, Betsey Vanleit, Leslie Hoelzel, Robert Hobbs

Occupational Therapy

Using a Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach, the project partners worked to clarify the health promotion needs of adults with developmental disabilities, identify strengths and weaknesses of the current system, and develop an action plan. Through this action plan, community agencies and therapists would become empowered to address needs, build ongoing community capacity to respond to emergent health/wellness needs, and advocate for appropriate systems of care.

End-Of-Life Care: Doctors' Complaints And Legal Restraints, Robert L. Schwartz Jan 2009

End-Of-Life Care: Doctors' Complaints And Legal Restraints, Robert L. Schwartz

Faculty Scholarship

Health lawyers and policymakers cannot always see the same shadows of the laws that are visible to health care providers, and sometimes those shadows have penumbras and emanations that are not visible to those outside of a narrow medical practice. Sometimes those shadows, whether real or imagined, cause doctors to act inconsistently with the intent of the law, and inconsistently with the requirements of good medical practice. Doctors may misread or misunderstand a law. Still, if the law as misread or misunderstood actually affects medical practice, we should not be blind to the fact of the misunderstanding. Listen to doctors' …

The Role Of Land Reform In Reducing Poverty Across Nepal, Chandra Adhikari Oct 2008

The Role Of Land Reform In Reducing Poverty Across Nepal, Chandra Adhikari

Himalayan Research Papers Archive

Land is the main source of income and consumption for Nepalese people. This study analyses the economic relationship between access to land and poverty in Nepal by establishing the link between land and consumption as well as land and income. A generalised additive model and OLS demonstrate that greater access to land for the poor increases income and consumption and thereby reduces poverty. The significant marginal value of land of both consumption and income implies that an effective land reform policy could well be the most effective approach to alleviate rural poverty. However, land reform must come as part of …


Natural Disaster And Sickness Shocks: Evidence Of Informal Social Insurance From Bangladesh, Pallab Mozumder Oct 2008

Natural Disaster And Sickness Shocks: Evidence Of Informal Social Insurance From Bangladesh, Pallab Mozumder

Himalayan Research Papers Archive

Bangladesh is prone to large scale natural disasters with consequent impacts on human health and survival. In 1998, Bangladesh experienced the flood of the century'. Households exposed to flooding had major crop failure, suffered from various water-borne diseases, lost shelter, assets and ability to meet their basic needs. Based on multiple rounds of household survey data from rural Bangladesh collected after the 1998 flooding, this article investigate the factors that contribute to reduce sickness shocks after a massive natural disaster. Results indicate that social cohesion built on group-based microfinance programs may provide an informal social insurance mechanism to reduce sickness …
