The Role Of Pharmacists And Emergency Contraception: An Assessment Of Pharmacy School Curricula In The U.S. And The Knowledge, Attitudes, And Dispensing Practices Of Florida Pharmacists., Alice R. Richman Oct 2008

The Role Of Pharmacists And Emergency Contraception: An Assessment Of Pharmacy School Curricula In The U.S. And The Knowledge, Attitudes, And Dispensing Practices Of Florida Pharmacists., Alice R. Richman

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Emergency contraception is a safe and effective form of contraception that is 75%-89% effective in preventing pregnancies within 120 hours of unprotected intercourse. Emergency contraception is a type of hormonal contraception, containing high doses of estrogen and progestin (ethinyl estradiol plus levonorgestrel) or progestin only (levonorgestrel). Wider access to emergency contraception has the potential to decrease the number of unintended pregnancies and abortions in the U.S. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has previously denied any over-the-counter (OTC) access to emergency contraception and only recently approved it for OTC status for women 18 years old and over; therefore, pharmacists continue …


Experiencing Visuo-Motor Plasticity By Prism Adaptation In A Classroom Setting, Andrea Li Oct 2008

Experiencing Visuo-Motor Plasticity By Prism Adaptation In A Classroom Setting, Andrea Li

Publications and Research

Neural plasticity is a key topic in the study of behavioral neuroscience, yet it can be a difficult concept to demonstrate in a classroom setting. In this report, we describe an interactive technique that can be used to demonstrate and quantify in a laboratory setting the plasticity of motor coordination to altered visual input, i.e. visuo-motor plasticity. Visual input can be easily altered by horizontally-displacing prism goggles. Open-loop motor coordination immediately after putting on these goggles is inaccurate. However, after performing a number of visuo-motor tasks wearing these goggles, coordination adapts and improves. Immediately after removing the goggles, a robust …

Public Opinion And The Introduction Of Congressional Environmental Legislation, 1973-2002, Hugh Eugene Jarvis Oct 2008

Public Opinion And The Introduction Of Congressional Environmental Legislation, 1973-2002, Hugh Eugene Jarvis

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study examines the relationship between public opinion about the environment and the introduction of congressional legislation on environmental issues. Using public opinion data gathered by the General Social Survey from 1977 to 2002, this work examines correlations between how the public views the environment in each and the number of bills introduced in the U.S. House and Senate addressing environmental issues. The findings indicate that there is a correlation between overall concern felt in the public and congressional action on certain aspects of environmental protection. The results also highlight the potentially disturbing finding that the race and economic class …


'Dynamic Competition' Does Not Excuse Monopolization, Jonathan Baker Oct 2008

'Dynamic Competition' Does Not Excuse Monopolization, Jonathan Baker

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This comment on a forthcoming article by Keith Hylton and David Evans explains why considerations of "dynamic competition" do not argue against antitrust enforcement. While the prospect of achieving monopoly may foster innovation, that observation misleads as to appropriate antitrust policy unless qualified by the observation that the push of competition generally spurs innovation more than the pull of monopoly. Moreover, the longstanding doctrinal rule that mere monopoly pricing is not illegal should not be read as demonstrating that antitrust law values monopolies for their role in promoting innovation.


Onset Of Tt0 Suppression Studied In Cu + Cu Collisions At Square Root Of Snn = 22:4, 62.4, And 200 Gev, Andrew Marshall Adare, Sergey V. Afanasiev, Christine A. Aidala, N. N. Ajitanand, Yasuyuki Akiba, Gyöngyi Baksay, László A. Baksay, Marcus Hohlmann, S. Rembeczki, Klaus Dehmelt Oct 2008

Neutral pion transverse momentum (pT) spectra at midrapidity (jyj & 0:35) were measured in Cu þ Cu collisions at ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi sNN p ¼ 22:4, 62.4, and 200 GeV. Relative to 0 yields in p þ p collisions scaled by the number of inelastic nucleon-nucleon collisions (Ncoll) the 0 yields for pT * 2 GeV=c in central Cu þ Cu collisions are suppressed at 62.4 and 200 GeV whereas an enhancement is observed at 22.4 GeV. A comparison with a jet-quenching model suggests that final state parton energy loss dominates in central Cu þ Cu collisions at 62.4 and 200 GeV, …

Altered Expression Of Genes Involved In Gabaergic Transmission And Neuromodulation Of Granule Cell Activity In The Cerebellum Of Schizophrenia Patients, Karen Cardon, W. Michael Bullock, Juan Bustillo, Rosalinda Roberts, Nora Perrone-Bizzozero Oct 2008

Altered Expression Of Genes Involved In Gabaergic Transmission And Neuromodulation Of Granule Cell Activity In The Cerebellum Of Schizophrenia Patients, Karen Cardon, W. Michael Bullock, Juan Bustillo, Rosalinda Roberts, Nora Perrone-Bizzozero

Undergraduate Medical Student Research

Objective: Deficits in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) signaling have been described in the prefrontal cortex, limbic system, and cerebellum in individuals with schizophrenia. The purpose of the present study was to further investigate cerebellar gene expression alterations as they relate to decreases in GABAergic transmission by examining the expression of GABAergic markers, N-methyl-D-aspartic- acid (NMDA) receptor subunits, and cerebellum neuromodulators in individuals with schizophrenia. Method: Subjects were postmortem men with a diagnosis of schizophrenia (N=13) and a postmortem intervalmatched non-psychiatric male comparison group (N=13). The authors utilized real-time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to measure mRNA levels of the fol lowing GABAergic …
