Public Health Impact Of Strain Specific Immunity To Borrelia Burgdorferi, Camilo E. Khatchikian, Robert B. Nadelman, John Nowakowski, Ira Schwartz, Michael Z. Levy, Dustin Brisson, Gary P. Wormser

NYMC Faculty Publications

BACKGROUND: Lyme disease, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, is the most common tick-borne infection in the United States. Although humans can be infected by at least 16 different strains of B. burgdorferi, the overwhelming majority of infections are due to only four strains. It was recently demonstrated that patients who are treated for early Lyme disease develop immunity to the specific strain of B. burgdorferi that caused their infection. The aim of this study is to estimate the reduction in cases of Lyme disease in the United States that may occur as a result of type specific immunity. METHODS: The analysis …

Grad Student Guest Post: Recap With The Second Years, Admin

Blog Posts

Last year I introduced my cohort to the Southern Studies community in an article written for the Southern Register. Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, we had no idea what a tempestuous journey we were in for. Acclimatizing to the sleep deprivation and never-ending workload endemic to graduate school was an experience we won't easily forget, but, engaging classes, supportive faculty and an ever-compelling South to study made the challenge entirely worthwhile. I caught up with my cohort, now seasoned graduate students, to hear about their individual Southern Studies experiences and to find out how their interests have changed since entering the program …

Defeat And Memory At The Arkansas State Capitol: The Little Rock Monument To The Women Of The Confederacy, 1896-1914, Zachary Lynn Elledge

Student Theses and Dissertations

Resting in the southeast corner of the Arkansas state capitol is the Little Rock monument honoring the women of the Confederacy. Known as the Southern Mother, the Arkansas division of the United Confederate Veterans (UCV) erected this monument to commemorate the sacrifices of Arkansas women during the Civil War. Sculpted by J. Otto Schweizer, a Swiss-American from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, this monument represents two versions of Arkansas’ Civil War history: that of the sculptor, and that of its patrons. Arkansas broke away from the national UCV in 1906 and proceeded on its own to memorialize Confederate women’s war time sacrifices. Paid …

Physical Characteristics Used To Predict Pole Vault Performance, Cody Bradly Michael Doerflein

Student Theses and Dissertations

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify specific physical characteristics of pole vaulters as they correspond to performance in the event. It was hypothesized that not only speed would correspond to performance, but skill and strength as well. METHODS: Twenty-three athletes were measured on six key physical assessments across one to two days. These assessments include a flying 15 m sprint, 1 RM back squat, backwards rollover to clearance, six-step straight pole drill for grip height, timed three m rope climb, and vertical jump. A multiple regression was used with pole vault performance as the criterion variable and …

Fostering Emotional, Social, Physical And Educational Wellbeing In Rural India: The Methods Of A Multi-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial Of Girls First, K. S. Leventhal, L. M. Demaria, Jane Gillham, G. Andrew, J. W. Peabody, S. Leventhal

Psychology Faculty Works

Background: There are 600 million girls in low and middle income countries (LMICs), many of whom are at great risk for poor health and education. There is thus great need for programs that can effectively improve wellbeing for these girls. Although many interventions have been developed to address these issues, most focus on health and education without integrating attention to social and emotional factors. This omission is unfortunate, as nascent evidence indicates that these factors are closely related to health and education. This paper describes the methods of a 4-arm randomized controlled trial among 3,560 adolescent girls in rural Bihar, …

Lichen Inventory Of White Rocks Open Space (City Of Boulder, Colorado), Erin A. Tripp

Western North American Naturalist

A lichen inventory of White Rocks Open Space (City of Boulder, CO), a unique outcropping of exposed unstable sandstones, is presented. White Rocks is an ecologically important, ~40.5-ha (100-acre) protected area whose biological significance is in part attributable to geological and climatological history as well as degree of preservation, but also because it represents a biodiversity reservoir in a sea of agriculture and urban development. This inventory resulted in documentation of 56 species, including 1 new record to the United States, 1 new record to Colorado, 2 species new to science, and 2 additional species potentially new to science pending …

Survival And Plant Vigor Of Sclerocactus Parviflorus (Clover And Jotter) Following Different Transplanting Techniques, Richard Ballard, Rick Ott, Tim Novotny, Anna Lincoln, Eric Rechel

Western North American Naturalist

Cacti are transplanted when their occurrence conflicts with road and pipeline construction and mitigation requires relocation, or they are transplanted for personal use. Methods used in transplanting have credence by virtue of common practice; however, there are few scientific studies comparing different methods. Our objective was to determine if different transplanting techniques, time of year of transplanting, and association with a nurse plant upon transplanting affected the long-term survival (8 years) and vigor of Sclerocactus parviflorus (Clover and Jotter). The 3 transplanting procedures were as follows: (1) cacti excavated, soil removed from roots, roots trimmed, plants placed in shaded open …

A Note On The Observable Bark Coloration Of Quaking Aspen (Populus Tremuloides), Oren Rabinowitz, Erin A. Tripp

Western North American Naturalist

The bark of quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides), a clonal hardwood that is dominant in many Rocky Mountain forests, varies from white to orange to green among both ramets and populations. The proximate causes of this color variation remain controversial. We collected 72 samples of aspen bark from 11 locations in Boulder County, Colorado, and used microscopy, dissection, and thin layer chromatography to assess the structural and biochemical basis for the color gradient. Our study shows that the cork cells closest to the cork cambium of the aspen were consistently orange and conglutinated. Outward from this layer, the cork …
