Coffee Intake And Risk Of Incident Diabetes In Puerto Rican Men: Results From The Puerto Rico Heart Health Program, Barbara J. Fuhrman, Ellen Smit, Carlos J. Crespo, Mario R. Garcia-Palmieri Sep 2008

Coffee Intake And Risk Of Incident Diabetes In Puerto Rican Men: Results From The Puerto Rico Heart Health Program, Barbara J. Fuhrman, Ellen Smit, Carlos J. Crespo, Mario R. Garcia-Palmieri

Community Health Faculty Publications and Presentations

Objective: To study prospectively the association of coffee intake with incident diabetes in the Puerto Rico Heart Health Program cohort, comprising 9824 middle-aged men (aged 35-79 years). Methods: Of 9824 men, 3869 did not provide a fasting blood sample at baseline, 1095 had prevalent diabetes and 131 were not given fasting glucose tests at any subsequent study visit. Thus, the present analysis includes 4685 participants. Diabetes was ascertained at baseline and at two study visits between 1968 and 1975 using fasting glucose tests and self-reports of physician-diagnosed diabetes or use of insulin or hypoglycaemic medication. Logistic regression analysis was used …

Differential Loss Of Embryonic Globin Genes During The Radiation Of Placental Mammals, Juan C. Opazo, Federico Hoffmann, Jay F. Storz Sep 2008

Differential Loss Of Embryonic Globin Genes During The Radiation Of Placental Mammals, Juan C. Opazo, Federico Hoffmann, Jay F. Storz

Jay F. Storz Publications

The differential gain and loss of genes from homologous gene families represents an important source of functional variation among the genomes of different species. Differences in gene content between species are primarily attributable to lineage-specific gene gains via duplication and lineage-specific losses via deletion or inactivation. Here, we use a comparative genomic approach to investigate this process of gene turnover in the β-globin gene family of placental mammals. By analyzing genomic sequence data from representatives of each of the main superordinal clades of placental mammals, we were able to reconstruct pathways of gene family evolution during the basal radiation of …


The Organizational, Community And Programmatic Characteristics That Predict The Effective Implementation Of After-School Programs, Todd A. Armstrong, Gaylene Armstrong Sep 2008

The Organizational, Community And Programmatic Characteristics That Predict The Effective Implementation Of After-School Programs, Todd A. Armstrong, Gaylene Armstrong

Criminology and Criminal Justice Faculty Publications

To identify characteristics predicting the effective implementation of after-school programs, in-depth interviews were conducted at five sites randomly selected from a subset of 16 ACE after-school sites serving high risk youth in a southwestern city. Qualitative data from structured in-depth interviews, follow-up telephone conversations with personnel as well as researcher observations during site visits were synthesized. Data identified three constellations of characteristics associated with effective implementation: staffing, community and programmatic. Staffing characteristics included limited staff turnover and sufficient training. Community characteristics included cultural sensitivity and community integration. Programmatic characteristics included clearly defined program goals and specific program content. Researcher observations …

Metallomesogens: Supramolecular Design Via Alkyl-Rich Metal Complexes, Juan Noveron Sep 2008

Metallomesogens: Supramolecular Design Via Alkyl-Rich Metal Complexes, Juan Noveron

Departmental Papers (Chemistry)

Molecules that use non-covalent interactions to self-organize into supramolecular structures have the potential to generate functional materials with a broad range of applications. This review article focuses on the design and synthesis of molecules that use transition metal ions and long alkyl chains to direct the formation of ordered supramolecular phases. This unique combination of coordination bonds and alkyl interdigitation provide exceptional control over intermolecular interactions and can generate nanoscale molecular order as liquid crystalline states, Langmuir-Blodgett films on surfaces, highly ordered lyotropic phases such as metallo-micelles in water and reverse metallo-micelles in organic media. The synthetic strategy for alkane-rich …


Use Of Oxide Nanoparticles In Soot Reduction, Sudipta Seal, Sameer Deshpande, Suresh Kuiry, Swanand Patil, Eric Petersen Sep 2008

Use Of Oxide Nanoparticles In Soot Reduction, Sudipta Seal, Sameer Deshpande, Suresh Kuiry, Swanand Patil, Eric Petersen

UCF Patents

Novel nano-sized rare earth metal oxide prepared from aqueous reverse micelles is provided. The engineered nanoparticles have large surface area to volume ratios, and sufficient oxygen vacancies on the surface of each particle, so that when mixed with carbon-containing combustible fuels, the particles remain suspended indefinitely; there is a significant reduction in soot and other by-products of combustion, an increase in engine efficiency and less fuel consumed per mile traveled in various vehicles, such as, but not limited to, automobiles, defense vehicles, airplanes, ships and other surface or air-bearing vehicles.

A Web-Based And Mobile Environmental Management System, James Carswell, Keith Gardiner, Michela Bertolotto, Andrea Rizzini, A Mandrak Sep 2008

A Web-Based And Mobile Environmental Management System, James Carswell, Keith Gardiner, Michela Bertolotto, Andrea Rizzini, A Mandrak

Articles

This paper describes a Web-based and mobile system specifically developed to monitor fish species at risk. Such a system integrates spatial functionality to allow users not only to visualise maps and metadata of the area of concern but also to perform context-aware queries and updating of spatial datasets. The spatial datasets are provided by the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and the prototype is customised to the specific needs of the Great Lakes Laboratory for Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (GLLFAS) Fish Habitat Section requirements for fish species at risk assessment. Currently, researchers, habitat biologists and enforcement officers have …


"Enough About You, Let's Talk About Me : Clinicians' Use Of Self-Disclosure And (Un)Conscious Awareness Of Race, Sexuality, And Gender, Sarah R. Barnett-Parker Sep 2008

"Enough About You, Let's Talk About Me : Clinicians' Use Of Self-Disclosure And (Un)Conscious Awareness Of Race, Sexuality, And Gender, Sarah R. Barnett-Parker

Theses, Dissertations, and Projects

The purpose of this study was to answer the following question: How and why do clinicians choose to self-disclose (with particular attention paid to race, sexual orientation and gender)? In order to answer this questiono sixty-four participants were surveyed using a mixed-method, deductive, exploratory method. The majority of clinicians surveyed use self-disclosure in their practices and believe that it is a viable therapeutic technique. Not all of the clinicians were aware of their own social identities or the identities of their clients playing a role in their choices around self-disclosure, but some were. The three major motivations for identity-based disclosures …

Agricultural R&D Policy: A Tragedy Of The International Commons, Jennifer S. James, Philip G. Pardey, Julian M. Alston Sep 2008

Agricultural R&D Policy: A Tragedy Of The International Commons, Jennifer S. James, Philip G. Pardey, Julian M. Alston

Agribusiness

Over the past 50 years public agricultural research has contributed enormously to humanity, enabling the supply of food to grow faster than demand in spite of a rapidly growing population, income growth, and shrinking natural resources. Nonetheless, in many countries we see waning public support for agricultural R&D, especially in Africa, a diversion of research resources from farm productivity towards other agendas, and early warning signs of a slowdown in agricultural productivity. The world has continued to collectively underinvest in agricultural R&D because of domestic and international market failures associated with appropriability problems. Governments have failed to effectively address these …
