Turning Blood Into Whine--"Fear Of Aids" As A Cognizable Cause Of Action In New Mexico, Eric J. Knapp May 1998

Turning Blood Into Whine--"Fear Of Aids" As A Cognizable Cause Of Action In New Mexico, Eric J. Knapp

Student Thesis Honors (1996-2008)

Madrid v. Lincoln County Medical Center is the first New Mexico case to recognize a cause of action for the negligent infliction of emotional distress (NIED) arising from possible exposure to the virus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The court in Madrid held that recognition of emotional distress claims arising out of a negligently created fear of contracting the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) through a medically sound channel of transmission does not require proof of actual exposure to the virus. In arriving at its decision, the Madrid court rejected the tort-recovery principles formulated in the "fear of future disease" …

Vcu Voice (1998-05-04)

VCU Voice, 1988-1998

VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.


Evaluation Of The Success Of Adoptive Versus Passive Transfer Of Immunity Against Trypanosoma Cruzi, Karen Powell May 1998

Evaluation Of The Success Of Adoptive Versus Passive Transfer Of Immunity Against Trypanosoma Cruzi, Karen Powell

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Several investigators have demonstrated an increased resistance to the protozoal parasite Trypanosoma cruzi (the causative agent of Chagas' disease) in highly susceptible C3H mice when maintained at an environmental temperature of 36°C. This increased resistance is manifested as delay in onset of parasitemia, decreased parasitemia, decreased pathology, and increased longevity with eventual clearing of the parasite from the bloodstream. In addition, this enhanced resistance has been shown to be an immunologic phenomenon and not due to the direct effects of elevated temperature on the parasite itself. To ascertain the possible contributions of humoral vs. cellular immunity to the above phenomenon, …

Tnf(Alpha)-Dependent And Tnf(Alpha)-Independent Activation Of Macrophage Effector Function, Annette R. Clemons-Miller May 1998

Tnf(Alpha)-Dependent And Tnf(Alpha)-Independent Activation Of Macrophage Effector Function, Annette R. Clemons-Miller

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) is a pleiotropic cytokine that is predominantly produced by activated macrophages. The effects of TNFα are as diverse as the cells with which it interacts, e.g., stimulating fibroblast growth, exerting cytotoxic/cytostatic; activity against various human and murine cell lines, promoting inflammation through upregulation of endothelial adhesion molecules and IL-8 production. Yet TNFα is best known, and in fact was originally described, for its role in the bacterial-induced hemorrhagic necrosis of tumors and exacerbation of septic shock in which aberrant TNFα production leads to vascular collapse, cachexia, multiple organ failure, and ultimately death in as many …


Biological Characterization Of Rev Variation In Equine Infectious Anemia Virus, Michael Belshan, Matthew E. Harris, Anne E. Shoemaker, Thomas J. Hope, Susan Carpenter May 1998

Biological Characterization Of Rev Variation In Equine Infectious Anemia Virus, Michael Belshan, Matthew E. Harris, Anne E. Shoemaker, Thomas J. Hope, Susan Carpenter

Nebraska Center for Virology: Faculty Publications

Sequence analysis identified significant variation in the second exon of equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) rev. Functional analysis indicated that limited amino acid variation in Rev significantly altered the export activity of the protein but did not affect Rev-dependent alternative splicing. EIAV Rev can mediate export through two independent cis -acting Rev-responsive elements (RREs), and differences among Rev variants were more pronounced when both RREs were present. Variation in Rev may be an important mechanism for regulation of virus replication in vivo and may contribute to changes in clinical disease.


Preliminary Phylogenetic Analysis Of Subfamilies Of The Proteocephalidea (Eucestoda), Amilcar Arandas Rego, Alain De Chambrier, Vladimira Hanzelová, Eric P. Hoberg, Tomás Scholz, Peter Weekes, Marc Zehnder May 1998

Preliminary Phylogenetic Analysis Of Subfamilies Of The Proteocephalidea (Eucestoda), Amilcar Arandas Rego, Alain De Chambrier, Vladimira Hanzelová, Eric P. Hoberg, Tomás Scholz, Peter Weekes, Marc Zehnder

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Cladistic analysis based on comparative morphology was used to examine the subfamily-level relationships within the cestode order Proteocephalidea. A single most parsimonious tree (70 steps, CI = 0.571; RC = 0.295; HI = 0.471) is consistent with monophyly for the Proteocephalidea and showed a relatively high consistency at the family level with the diagnosis of two major subclades. Unambiguous support for a Proteocephalidae subclade, including the Corallobothriinae, Proteocephalinae, Gangesiinae and Sandonellinae, and a Monticelliidae subclade, including the Marsypocephalinae, Zygobothriinae, Monticelliinae, Rudolphiellinae, Ephedrocephalinae and Othinoscolecinae was evident. Two subfamilies, the Acanthotaeniinae (historically in the Proteocephalidae) and Nupeliinae (historically in the Monticelliidae), …

Why Long-Term Marriages Last: A Review, Paula Gabell

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

Marriage is a social institution experienced by most adults at least once in their life-time. Like any other type of institution marriage has its own set of norms and roles that are culturally specific to the area where it is being practiced. Marriage has existed in some form in almost every culture throughout time. There are four major types of marriages practiced in the world today. They are polygynous (one husband and many wives), polyandrous (one wife and several husbands), multilateral (several people of both sexes existing as a part of one marriage) and monogamous (two partners usually one male …


Antioxidants And Alcohol In The Progression Of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, Laura Lynne Prestwich May 1998

Antioxidants And Alcohol In The Progression Of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, Laura Lynne Prestwich

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

Wasting syndrome in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) appears to play a role in decline of immune function. Along with poor appetite, HIV infected individuals seem to have a tendency to be heavy alcohol drinkers which may be immunosuppressive and cause malnutrition. Altered macronutrient metabolism visibly contributes to wasting; however, micronutrient deficiencies also appear to play a role. Micronutrient deficiency has also been known to decrease immune function. As part of their role as antioxidants, P-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium may be helpful in altering cell production and response to cytokines and other secretions. This may decrease viral replication …
