Quality Control, Enterprise Liability, And Distintermediation In Managed Care, Nicole Huberfeld, John V. Jacobi

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

In this article, the authors examine the potential of enterprise liability in light of current health-care finance realities. The article begins by addressing background issues of medical malpractice theory and the development of proposals for a form of plan-based enterprise medical liability centered on managed care organizations (MCOs). The authors then describe recent trends in the evolution of more loosely structured MCOs, including the emergence of "disintermediated," or patient-directed, plans. The authors examine the extent to which these developments weaken the rationales for plan-based enterprise liability. The article concludes nevertheless that plan-based enterprise liability best serves the goal of reducing …

Youth Livelihood Opportunities In Egypt, Safaa El-Kogali, Nagah Hassan Al Bassusi

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

This report presents results from a quantitative and qualitative study on youth livelihood opportunities in Egypt. The study was motivated by growing evidence of increasing unemployment among the young at a time when new entrants into the labor force are also increasing at unprecedented rates. Egypt has a youth population of over 13 million aged 15–24—over a fifth of the total population. They constitute the largest segment of the economically active population. Whether this bulge of young workers entering the labor force is a “demographic gift” or a “demographic burden” depends in large measure on the policies that are in …

Receptor Number And Caveolar Co-Localization Determine Receptor Coupling Efficiency To Adenylyl Cyclase, Rennolds S. Ostrom, Caroline Gregorian, Ryan M. Drenan, Yang Xiang, John W. Regan, Paul A. Insel

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Recent evidence suggests that many signaling molecules localize in microdomains of the plasma membrane, particularly caveolae. In this study, overexpression of adenylyl cyclase was used as a functional probe of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) compartmentation. We found that three endogenous receptors in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes couple with different levels of efficiency to the activation of adenylyl cyclase type 6 (AC6), which localizes to caveolin-rich membrane fractions. Overexpression of AC6 enhanced the maximal cAMP response to β1-adrenergic receptor (β1AR)-selective activation 3.7-fold, to β2AR-selective activation only 1.6-fold and to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) not at all. Therefore, the rank order of efficacy in …

Studying The Relationship Between Parental Involvement And Sternberg's Triarchic Theory Of Intelligence, Liliana Munoz Bailey

HIM 1990-2015

Extensive research has been conducted in the area of intelligence. Most of the research in this area has been focused on cognitive abilities. However, little research has been explored other type of intelligence and the environmental factors. The intent of this study was to investigate Sternberg’s Theory of Intelligence and parental involvement. According to this theory an individual’s intelligence is composed of three main domains: cognitive, creative and practical. Every individual possesses these abilities to a greater or lesser degree. Yet, little is known of what factors could lead to the difference in these types of abilities in individuals. Parental …

Prostasin Is A Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-Anchored Active Serine Protease, Li-Mei Chen, Melanie L. Skinner, Steven W. Kauffman, Julie Chao, Lee Chao, Catherine D. Thaler, Karl X. Chai

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

A recombinant human prostasin serine protease was expressed in several human cell lines. Subcellular fractionation showed that this serine protease is synthesized as a membrane-bound protein while a free-form prostasin is secreted into the culture medium, Prostasin was identified in nuclear and membrane fractions. Membrane-bound prostasin can be released by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C treatment, or labeled by [H-3]ethanolamine, indicating a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchorage. A prostasin-binding protein was identified in mouse and human seminal vesicle fluid. Both the secreted and the membrane-bound prostasin were able to form a covalently linked 82-kDa complex when incubated with seminal vesicle fluid. The complex formation between …

Observation Of The Geology And Geomorphology Of The 1999 Marsokhod Test Site, R. A. De Hon, N. G. Barlow, M. K. Reagan, E. A. Bettis Iii, C. T. Foster Jr., V. C. Gulick, L. S. Crumpler, J. C. Aubele, M. G. Chapman, K. L. Tanaka

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

The Marsokhod rover returned data from six stations that were used to decipher the geomorphology and geology of a region not previously visited by members of the geomorphology field team. Satellite images and simulated descent images provided information about the regional setting. The landing zone was on an alluvial apron flanking a mountain block to the west and a playa surface to the east. Rover color images, infrared spectra analysis of the mountains, and the apron surface provided insight into the rock composition of the nearby mountains. From the return data the geomorphology team interpreted the region to consist of …

Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry Characterization Of The Diffusion Properties Of 17 Elements Implanted Into Silicon, H. Francois-Saint-Cyr, E. Anoshkina, F. Stevie, L. Chow, K. Richardson, D. Zhou

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

A systematic investigation of the diffusion of Be, B, Na, Mg, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Zn, Ge, Rb, and Mo in silicon has been carried out. The elements were implanted into silicon wafers as low dose impurities, and then postheat treatments of the ion-implanted samples were conducted at different temperatures for a specific time. Following the anneals, the depth profiles were obtained by secondary ion mass spectrometry analyses. A wide range of diffusion behavior has been observed for these elements. Based on differences in the depth profiles the diffusion mechanism was identified where possible. (C) …

Ion Channeling Effects On The Focused Ion Beam Milling Of Cu, B. W. Kempshall, S. M. Schwarz, B. I. Prenitzer, L. A. Giannuzzi, R. B. Irwin, F. A. Stevie

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

The use of focused ion beam (FIB) instruments for device modification and specimen preparation has become a mainstay in the microelectronics industry and in thin film characterization. The role of the FIB as a tool to rapidly prepare high quality transmission electron microscopy specimens is particularly significant. Special attention has been given to FIB milling of Cu and Si in the microelectronics arena. Although FIB applications involving Si have been extremely successful, it has been noted that Cu tends to present significant challenges to FIB milling because of effects such as the development of milling induced topographical features. We show …

Morphological Operations On Color Images, Lloyd J. Sartor, Arthur R. Weeks

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

Morphological image processing has been widely used to process binary and grayscale images, with morphological techniques being applied to noise reduction, image enhancement, and feature detection. Relying on an ordering of the data, morphology modifies the geometrical aspects of an image: object contours in binary images and object surfaces in grayscale images. Extending morphological operators to color image processing has been problematic because it is not easy to define geometry of a vector-valued function and ordering of vectors is not straightforward We propose a new set of color morphological operators based on a combination of reduced ordering and conditional ordering …

Mathematical Model For The Irradiance Probability Density Function Of A Laser Beam Propagating Through Turbulent Media, M. A. Al-Habash, L. C. Andrews, R. L. Phillips

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

We develop a model for the probability density function (pdf) of the irradiance fluctuations of an optical wave propagating through a turbulent medium. The model is a two-parameter distribution that is based on a doubly stochastic theory of scintillation that assumes that small-scale irradiance fluctuations are modulated by large-scale irradiance fluctuations of the propagating wave, both governed by independent gamma distributions. The resulting irradiance pdf takes the form of a generalized K distribution that we term the gamma-gamma distribution. The two parameters of the gamma-gamma pdf are determined using a recently published theory of scintillation, using only values of the …

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

We report on a field experiment held near Silver Lake playa in the Mojave Desert in February 1999 with the Marsokhod rover. The payload (Descent Imager, PanCam, Mini-TES, and Robotic Arm Camera), data volumes, and data transmission/receipt windows simulated those planned for the Mars Surveyor mission selected for 2001. A central mast with a pan and tilt platform at 150 cm height carried a high-resolution color stereo imager to simulate the PanCam and a visible/near-infrared fiberoptic spectrometer (operating range 0.35-2.5 mum). Monochrome stereo navigation cameras were mounted on the mast and the front and rear of the rover near the …

Liquid Crystal-Based Self-Aligning 2 X 2 Wavelength Routing Module, Sarun Sumriddetchkajorn, Nabeel A. Riza, Deepak K. Sengupta

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

A novel retroreflective polarization insensitive 2x2 fiber optic switch (FOS) using programmable quarter waveplates (QWPs) is introduced. Key features include low polarization sensitivity and a self-aligning module via a compact retroreflective structure. A proof of concept 2x2 FOS using ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC)-based (PIPS) Laboratory programmable QWPs is demonstrated, providing a response speed of 394 mus and a low 10.14-mW total electrical power consumption for the and worst case. Multiwavelength switch operation in the 1550-nm wave length region indicates an average optical loss of 6.02 dB with a +/-0.18-dB loss fluctuation, and an optical coherent crosstalk of -21.6 dB with …

Practical Experience Using A Computational Model For The Design Of Heterogeneous Distributed Software, T. L. Williams, R. J. Parsons

Faculty Bibliography 2000s

Heterogeneous cluster environments are becoming an increasing popular platform for executing parallel applications. Efficient heterogeneous programs must account for the differences inherent in such an environment. We propose the HBSP(1) model of computation as a framework for developing applications for heterogeneous clusters of workstations. The utility of the model is demonstrated through the design and analysis of the scatter and one-to-all broadcast algorithms. Extensive experimentation illustrates the benefits of using the model for heterogeneous program development. By hiding the non-uniformity of the underlying system, the HBSP(1) model provides a framework that embraces the heterogeneity of the underlying system.

Fictional Teeth, Linda Dyer

Ahsahta Press

In her debut volume Fictional Teeth, Linda Dyer sorted out the world by pinpointing the unexpected connections that help it make sense, and turns the run-on tumbling syntax of an excited child into the medium for poems that first amuse, then haunt the reader. Venturing the territories of family and loss, persistence and hope, Dyer’s voice is wry and inventive in these poems, where a crayfish can be a child’s pet, a lover’s makeshift ashtray an erotic lure, office supplies a convenient resource for makeovers.
