"True Patriots For The Salvation Of The Fatherland": Sinarquistas And The Struggle For Post-Revolutionary Mexico, John Smith Sep 2014

"True Patriots For The Salvation Of The Fatherland": Sinarquistas And The Struggle For Post-Revolutionary Mexico, John Smith

History ETDs

The efforts of Mexico's revolutionary leaders to rein in clerical power produced many violent confrontations between secular liberals and partisans for the Roman Catholic Church. Formed in 1937, the Unión Nacional Sinarquista built up a following of conservative Catholics in part by means of a mass culture produced by the movement's elites, such as elaborately staged rituals, canons of national heroes and martyrs, interpretations of national history, and songs. With this propaganda, the Sinarquistas sought to generate popular support for the movement leadership's right-wing political agenda. This thesis explores the mass culture of the Sinarquista movement, as well as that …

Expression Of Peroxiredoxin 1 And 4 Promotes Human Lung Cancer Malignancy, Hong Jiang, Lisha Wu, Murli Mishra, Hedy A. Chawsheen, Qiou Wei

Toxicology and Cancer Biology Faculty Publications

Members of the Peroxiredoxin (Prx) family are major cellular antioxidants that scavenge hydrogen peroxide and play essential roles in oxidative stress and cell signaling. 2-Cys Prxs, including Prx1, 2, 3 and 4, have been indicated in multiple oncogenic signaling pathways and thus may contribute to various processes of cancer development. The significance of 2-Cys Prxs in lung cancer development and their biological function in signal transduction have not been fully investigated. In this study we analyzed the expression of 2-Cys Prxs in lung cancer, and examined their levels of expression in a variety of cell lines established from human lung …

Park Rangers' Behaviors And Their Effects On Tourists And Tibetan Macaques (Macaca Thibetana) At Mt. Huangshan, China, Rie Usui, Lori K. Sheeran, Jin-Hua Li, Lixing Sun, Xi Wang, Alexander J. Pritchard, Alexander S. Duvall-Lash, R. Steven Wagner

Biology Faculty Scholarship

Previous studies have reported the negative impacts of tourism on nonhuman primates (NHPs) and tourists and advocated the improvement of tourism management, yet what constitutes good quality management remains unclear. We explored whether rates of macaque aggression and self-directed behaviors (SDBs) differed under the supervision of two park ranger teams at the Valley of the Wild Monkeys (VWM) in Mt. Huangshan, Anhui Province, China. The two ranger teams provisioned and managed a group of macaques on an alternating monthly basis. Monkey, tourist and ranger behaviors were collected from August 16–September 30, 2012. Macaque aggression and SDB rates did not differ …


Autoethnography As A Transformative Research Method, Dwayne Custer Sep 2014

Autoethnography As A Transformative Research Method, Dwayne Custer

The Qualitative Report

Autoethnography is a qualitative, transformative research method because it changes time, requires vulnerability, fosters empathy, embodies creativity and innovation, eliminates boundaries, honors subjectivity, and provides therapeutic benefits. This article discusses these seven lenses using select passages from “Jesus Christ and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups: A Narrative on Homosexual Identity, Spirituality, and Human Development” (an unpublished manuscript) written in 2013.

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Background: Susceptibility of Ae. aegypti mosquito to dengue virus (DENV) varies geographically and can be influenced by climatic factors such as temperature, which affect the incidence, seasonality and distribution of vector-borne diseases. The first outbreak of dengue fever (DF) in Kenya occured in 1982 in the coastal towns of Malindi and Kilifi. Unlike Nairobi where no active dengue transmission has been reported, DF is currently re-emerging at the Coast causing major outbreaks. This study investigated the vector competence of Ae. aegypti populations from two urban areas, Kilifi (Coast of Kenya) and Nairobi (Central Kenya), for DEN-2 virus and the influence …

Quantitative Assessment Of Blood Coagulation By Cold Atmospheric Plasma, Caitlin Heslin, Daniela Boehm, Vladimir Milosavljevic, Michelle Laycock, Patrick J. Cullen, Paula Bourke Sep 2014

Quantitative Assessment Of Blood Coagulation By Cold Atmospheric Plasma, Caitlin Heslin, Daniela Boehm, Vladimir Milosavljevic, Michelle Laycock, Patrick J. Cullen, Paula Bourke

Articles

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is produced by ionizing a chosen gas, thereby creating charged and reactive species. The reactive species generated are capable of inducing a range of biomedically relevant interactions including blood coagulation. However, the underlying biochemical processes of plasma-assisted blood coagulation are largely unknown, and data quantifying blood clot formation or the impact of system parameters on the intensity of the blood clot are scarce. In this study, blood coagulation was quantified by measuring hemoglobin absorbance. System parameters of the kINPen plasma jet were investigated and compared, including treatment time, distance from the plasma source and gas flow …

Using Dynamic Assessment To Assess Syntax With Five-Year-Olds Using Augmentative And Alternative Communication, Marika King Sep 2014

Using Dynamic Assessment To Assess Syntax With Five-Year-Olds Using Augmentative And Alternative Communication, Marika King

Speech and Hearing Sciences ETDs

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the readiness of 5-year-old children to produce semantic-syntactic structures via a graphic symbol-based augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) device during a dynamic assessment (DA) task and whether performance during DA was predictive of performance on a subsequent experimental task. Method: This study included four 5-year old children who demonstrated normal receptive language and limited speech intelligibility. The participants received DA, using a graduated prompting framework, for 6 semantic-syntactic targets followed by a static experimental task. Measures included amount of support required to produce the targets, modifiability within a DA session, and …

Detecting Concerted Demographic Response Across Community Assemblages Using Hierarchical Approximate Bayesian Computation, Yvonne L. Chan, David Schanzenbach, Michael J. Hickerson Sep 2014

Detecting Concerted Demographic Response Across Community Assemblages Using Hierarchical Approximate Bayesian Computation, Yvonne L. Chan, David Schanzenbach, Michael J. Hickerson

Publications and Research

Methods that integrate population-level sampling from multiple taxa into a single community-level analysis are an essential addition to the comparative phylogeographic toolkit. Detecting how species within communities have demographically tracked each other in space and time is important for understanding the effects of future climate and landscape changes and the resulting acceleration of extinctions, biological invasions, and potential surges in adaptive evolution. Here, we present a statistical framework for such an analysis based on hierarchical approximate Bayesian computation (hABC) with the goal of detecting concerted demographic histories across an ecological assemblage. Our method combines population genetic data sets from multiple …
