Evaluation Of Electrobraide Fencing As A White-Tailed Deer Barrier, Thomas W. Seamans, Kurt C. Vercauteren

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations continue to increase, resulting in direct threats to public safety and increased agricultural losses. A variety of fencing methods are used to reduce deer presence at airports and agricultural areas. Electric fences may offer a less expensive alternative to expensive woven-wire fences. We tested an electric fence product, ElectroBraide^TM (Yarmouth, N.S., Canada), on free-ranging deer in northern Ohio. We conducted both 1- and 2-choice tests, measuring deer intrusions and corn consumption at 10 sites encompassed with charged, non-charged or no fence. Mean daily deer intrusions decreased in each test when the fence …

A Role For Cetp Taqib Polymorphism In Determining Susceptibility To Atrial Fibrillation: A Nested Case Control Study, Folkert W. Asselbergs, Jason H. Moore, Maarten P. Van Den Berg, Eric B. Rimm

Dartmouth Scholarship

Studies investigating the genetic and environmental characteristics of atrial fibrillation (AF) may provide new insights in the complex development of AF. We aimed to investigate the association between several environmental factors and loci of candidate genes, which might be related to the presence of AF. A nested case-control study within the PREVEND cohort was conducted. Standard 12 lead electrocardiograms were recorded and AF was defined according to Minnesota codes. For every case, an age and gender matched control was selected from the same population (n = 194). In addition to logistic regression analyses, the multifactor-dimensionality reduction (MDR) method and interaction …

Appeasing The International Conscience Or Providing Post-Conflict Justice: Expanding The Khmer Rouge Tribunal’S Restorative Role, Nema Milaninia

ExpressO

Three decades after the Cambodian civil war, the leaders of the Khmer Rouge will finally be brought before an internationalized domestic tribunal. While the majority of those most responsible have died off or received immunity for their conduct, the Khmer Rouge Tribunal has the historic possibility of reaffirming the importance of international criminal justice and providing an historical narrative of the crimes committed and victims created.

This commentary evaluates the importance of restoration in transitional justice and the importance victims and witnesses play in post-conflict justice. This article will argue that previous post-conflict remedies required a balance of restorative and …

Medical Informatics Education For Nurses, Pharmacists, And Physicians, Reed Gardner

Historical and Administrative Collection

Medical Informatics is a relatively new field and involves implementing Electronic Health Records (EHR), Computerized Medical Decision-Making, Public Health, and Genomics. The University of Utah has been involved in educating over 200 health care professionals in this field over the past 4 decades. This presentation shares Dr. Gardner's experience in a collaborative Informatics education program that has resulted in exciting interactions between information scientists and clinicians. Examples of successes with these professions will be discussed.

Sanderson, Shelley, Bronx African American History Project

Oral Histories

Shelley Sanderson, a Spanish teacher in Co-op City, grew up in the Morrisania section of the Bronx. Sanderson spent her early elementary school years in the late 1950s living in her maternal grandmother’s apartment on Boston Road, which was shared amongst twelve family members. She explains that children in the family were independent and responsible, and that neighbors looked out for one another and the children. Girls and boys played outdoor games such as jump rope and Johnny on the Pony respectively, and boys’ stickball games were big neighborhood events. Music was a constant presence in Sanderson’s life growing up. …

Iodine Uptake Restoration In Thyroid Cancer, Kenneth B. Ain, Gopalakrishnan Venkataraman

Internal Medicine Faculty Patents

A method of expressing a tumor specific therapeutic response element in a cancerous cell is disclosed in which the response element was previously blocked from expression. The method comprises the step of administering an unblocking agent to the cancerous cell harboring a gene encoding the response element, thereby resulting in the expression of the response element.

Prenatal Cocaine Exposure Alters Alpha2 Receptor Expression In Adolescent Rats, Rosemarie M. Booze, David R. Wallace, Janelle M. Silvers, Barbara J. Strupp, Diane M. Snow, Charles F. Mactutus

Neuroscience Faculty Publications

BACKGROUND: Prenatal cocaine exposure produces attentional deficits which to persist through early childhood. Given the role of norepinephrine (NE) in attentional processes, we examined the forebrain NE systems from prenatal cocaine exposed rats. Cocaine was administered during pregnancy via the clinically relevant intravenous route of administration. Specifically, we measured alpha2-adrenergic receptor (alpha2-AR) density in adolescent (35-days-old) rats, using [3H]RX821002 (5 nM).

RESULTS: Sex-specific alterations of alpha2-AR were found in the hippocampus and amygdala of the cocaine-exposed animals, as well as an upregulation of alpha2-AR in parietal cortex.

CONCLUSION: These data suggest that prenatal cocaine exposure results in a persistent alteration …

Identification Of The Binding Region Of The [2fe-2s] Ferredoxin In Stearoyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Desaturase: Insight Into The Catalytic Complex And Mechanism Of Action, Pablo Sobrado, Karen S. Lyle, Steven P. Kaul, Michelle M. Turco, Ida Arabshahi, Ashok Marwah, Brian G. Fox

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Stearoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturase (Δ9D) catalyzes the O 2 and 2e- dependent desaturation of stearoyl-acyl carrier protein (18:0-ACP) to yield oleoyl-ACP (18:1-ACP). The 2e- are provided by essential interactions with reduced plant-type [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin (Fd). We have investigated the protein-protein interface involved in the Fd-Δ9D complex by the use of chemical cross-linking, site-directed mutagenesis, steady-state kinetic approaches, and molecular docking studies. The treatment of the different proteins with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide and N-hydroxy succinimide revealed that carboxylate residues from Fd and lysine residues from Δ9D contribute to cross-linking. The single substitutions of K60A, K56A, and K230A on Δ9D decreased the k …

Department of Pathology, Anatomy, and Cell Biology Faculty Papers

The member organizations of the Cytology Education and Technology Consortium believe there are significant flaws in current cytology proficiency testing regulations. The most immediate needed modifications include lengthening the required testing interval, utilizing stringently validated and continuously monitored slides, changing the grading scheme, and changing the focus of the test from the individual to laboratory level testing. Integration of new computer-assisted and located-guided screening technologies into the testing protocols is necessary for the testing protocol to be compliant with the law.

Thermal Effects Of Interfacial Dynamics, Alexander Umantsev

Chemistry and Physics Faculty Working Papers

Dynamical Ginzburg-Landau theory is applied to the study of thermal effects of motion of interfaces that appear after different phase transitions. These effects stem from the existence of the surface internal energy, entropy and temperature gradients in the interfacial transition region. Evolution equations for the interfacial motion are derived. For the experimental verification of the thermal effects the expression is derived for the amplitude of temperature waves during continuous ordering.
