Synthesis And Characterization Of Maghemite Nanoparticles Dispersed Within Silica Matrix / Ang Bee Chin, Bee Chin Ang

Student Works (2010-2019)

Generally, this study comprises of 3 stages. Firstly, pure maghemite nanoparticles were synthesized within 10nm size range. Secondly, the nanoparticles were encapsulated into the silica xerogel matrix to minimize agglomeration and aggregation by producing nanocomposites. Finally, the surface area of the nanocomposites was increased by modifying the matrix into silica particulate form. The nanoparticles and nanocomposites were characterized using XRD, TGA, TEM, BET, DLS and AGM. In stage I, the effects of varying the FeCl2 concentration on the properties of magnetic nanoparticles produced by Massart’s procedure were investigated. The lattice parameters of the samples obtained from XRD analysis revealed that …

Comparative Life Cycle Assessments Of Lignocellulosic And Algae Biomass Conversion To Various Energy Products Through Different Pathways, Maria Juliana Pinilla

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Bioenergy has the potential to reduce the world's dependence on fossil fuels, and to decrease the CO2 emissions due to fossil combustion. Lignocellulosic and algae biomass have been presented as promising feedstocks for bioenergy production.

In this study, a comparative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has been developed to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with different energy products via different routes across the whole life of algal and lignocellulosic bioenergy. Results were compared per energy basis, the production of 1 million BTU of energy products.

For the development of the comparative algae biomass conversion LCA, algal biomass was converted to liquid …

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder And Returning U.S. Veterans: A Comprehensive Review Of The Literature And Its Implications, Amanda D. Chesnek

Research Papers

The topic of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in veterans returning from the military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan is reviewed in an in-depth study through a comprehensive review of the literature. A thorough definition of PTSD is provided. An approach to identifying the pertinent literature will be outlined. The importance of the topic is discussed, including prevalence as well as impact to the individual veterans affected. Impact on veterans’ families will also be reviewed, as well as how PTSD is affecting the nation and society. Various treatments and barriers to treatment will be reviewed, along with screening tools and prevention …

The Mysterious Pathologic Process Of Autistic Disorder, Clyde Sheehan, M.D.

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

This is a condensed literature review of current etiological and treatment findings in autism. Numerous studies examining autistic individuals for a biological marker have been performed with renewed interest over the past several years. Biochemical studies have revealed excessive amounts of serotonin, dopamine and opiods in marry autistics. Reductions in self injurious behaviors, aggressiveness, hyperactivity and stereotypies in patients on medications targeting these specific receptor sites have been documented. Though genetic studies indicate a significant contribution to the transmission of autism, the final common etiological pathway remain unknown.

The Syndrome Of Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion In Psychiatric Patients, Kathleen Crapanzano, M.D.

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is a common medical illness which has many etiologies-some of which are particular to psychiatric patients. This review will discuss the diagnosis of SIADH and then the various etiologies for its development with emphasis on those which are more relevant to psychiatric patients. Future research will be directed to a further understanding of this disorder, as well as to treatment options to decrease the significant morbidity associated with this condition.

Delusional Misidentification Syndromes, Zeljko Jocic, M.D.

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

Delusional misidentification syndromes are reviewed by their phenomenology, epidemiology, clinical characteristics, associated clinical findings, etiological theories, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment. Related neuropsychiatric syndromes are described and distinctions between them and delusional misidentification syndromes addressed. Current psychological and biologic-cognitive theories are briefly discussed. These peculiar phenomena are probably more frequent than previously thought, if they are specifically sought and recognized. Organic factors play a definitive role in their occurrence and two brain regions frontal and temporal, are presumably dysfunctional.

Psychiatric Manifestation Of Vitamin B-12 Deficiency: An Update, David Metzler, M.S., M.D., William H. Miller, M.D., C. Stephen Edwards, M.D.

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

Psychiatric manifestations of vitamin B-12 deficiency are reviewed from 1986 to the present. Specific clinical entities reviewed include depression, organic psychosis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, childhood manifestations and dementia. We recommend that consideration be given to B-12 deficiency as an etiological factor in some cases of depression, organic psychosis, certain childhood disorders and dementia. Routine screening of people overage 65 is addressed.

Editor's Column, Edward Kim, M.D.

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

As a senior medical student applying to residency programs, I became acquainted with the term "eclecticism." Many programs described themselves as "eclectic"; it appealed to the progressive, pluralistic spirit in all of us. Yet it implied, erroneously I believe, that limiting the foci of psychiatric resident education was neither necessary nor desirable. The regressive appeal of eclecticism lies in the denial that all true commitments entail some relinquishment of other possibilities; the pleasures of socialization are bought through the renunciation of defecating or urinating at the slightest urge. The hypothetical eclectic psychiatrist has given up none of his or her …
