Critical Thinking And Cedaw: Women's Rights As Human Rights, Nancy L. Adams

Critical and Creative Thinking Capstones Collection

This thesis is designed as an exercise in critical thinking which attempts to trace the little-known and vaguely understood international effort to address women's rights as human rights. Specifically, it is intended to introduce and actively engage the reader in the application of critical thinking processes through an analysis of the history and status of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, or CEDAW. Given the potential significance of CEDAW for the United States, it is ironic that this human rights treaty is not commonplace in discussions regarding women's rights. Many associate the women's rights …

Artificial Recharge In The Las Vegas Valley: An Operational History, Michael Johnson, Erin Cole, Kay Brothers, Las Vegas Valley Water District

Publications (WR)

Artificially recharging the Las Vegas Valley (Valley) ground-water system with treated Colorado River water is one water resource management option employed by the Las Vegas Valley Water District (District) to help meet future long-term and short-term peak water demands. The District began operation of an artificial ground-water recharge program in 1988 in order to bank water for future use and to slow declining water levels. Artificial recharge occurs in the winter months, typically from October to May, when there is excess capacity in the Southern Nevada Water System (SNWS), currently a 400 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) treatment and transmission …

Dietary Iron And Recurrence Of Colorectal Adenomas, Marilyn Tseng, Robert S. Sandler, E. Robert Greenberg, Jack S. Mandel, Robert W. Haile, John A. Baron

Kinesiology and Public Health

Previous research suggests that iron acts as a prooxidant to increase the risk of colorectal neoplasia. This study examined effects of dietary intake of iron on colorectal adenoma recurrence using data from an antioxidant clinical trial. All subjects were free of polyps at study entry but had at least one adenoma removed within the 3 months before enrollment. Follow-up colonoseopies were conducted after 1 and 4 years. Patients who developed one or more adenomatous polyps between years 1 and 4 were classified as cases; all others were controls. Dietary iron intake at baseline and at the end of the study …

Non-Invasive Respirator - An Alternative In Patients With Neuromuscular Disease, Tyng-Guey Wang, Rong-Bin Hong, Mei-Li Cheng, Jin-Shin Lai, I-Nan Lien

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Fifteen individuals with neuromuscular disease and ventilatory insufficiency received non-invasive respirator(NIR)for their respiratory failure, severe sleep disordered breathing, or respiratory distress. By providing the NIR, thirteen patients successfully maintained their ventilation for a mean duration of 13.5:t 11.8 months (range: 2 to 36); ten of them still used NIR effectively at .he time of report. The four patients failed in using NIR were all motor neuron disease. The reason for discontinuing NJR was difficulty in handling pulmonary secretions. After inducing NIR, the blood gas of our patients returned to normal limit (PaO2 67.2:t10.2 mmHg elevated to 90.7:t9.3 mmHg and PaCO2 …

Clinical Aspects And Risk Factors Of Low Compliance Bladder, Tsz-Ching Hsu, Tyng-Guey Wang, Yen-Ho Wang, Jin-Shin Lai, I-Nan Lien

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

To determine the prevalence of low compliance bladder and its effects on the upper urinary tract, 431 persons with neurogenic bladder have been evaluated over the past 3 years. Among them, 34 persons (7.9%) had low compliance bladder. Thirty-two persons who had lower motor neuron type neurogenic bladder served as controls. Bladder capacity (280 ml vs. 420 ml; P ＜ 0.05) and creatinine clearance rate (53 ml/min vs. 83 ml/min; P ＜ 0.05) of the low compliance bladder group were significantly lower than those of controls. The chance of urinary tract infection was greater and the post-injury duration was longer …

Indochinese Mental Health In North America: Measures, Status, And Treatments, Thanh V. Tran, Donna L. Ferullo

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

The massive influx of Indochinese refugees and immigrants to North America since the end of the Indochina war, especially to the United States of America, has resulted in numerous multi-disciplinary efforts to document and study their mental well-being. As a group, Indochinese Americans arrived from war-torn countries where many had experienced various forms of trauma, poverty, and oppression. Their pre-migration experiences, and experiences in adjusting and adapting to the new life in the host society have influenced their mental health status and overall quality of life in various ways. This paper analyzes and synthesizes a wealth of multi-disciplinary research on …

Waiting For The Electrician Or Someone Like Him: Client-Centered Technical Services, Mary K. Bolin

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries: Faculty Publications

Academics are being admonished to be "client-centered"--generally used to mean consumer or customer-oriented. This paper looks at the origins of "client-centeredness" in mental health care, and explores the idea of "client-centered" academic institutions, specifically the technical services functions of academic libraries. Philosophical and practical recommendations for a client-centered technical services operation conclude the paper.
