SLA Scholarship

CUMU (Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities), 2016 Conference, Poster Presentations:

Julie Dierberger, and Samantha Kanouse, University of Nebraska at Omaha Commitment to quality service learning instruction at the higher education level has been a major tactic used to achieve the metropolitan mission at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO). As service learning has become institutionalized across the campus, expansion to include the P-12 area schools and teachers became not only an important next step in relationship development, but also a means to better serve the Omaha community. To that end, UNO has been partnering with P-12 schools …

Trademark Law, Functional Design Features, And The Trouble With Traffix, Harold R. Weinberg

Journal of Intellectual Property Law

Part One of this article briefly defines some terms employed throughout and provides a short review of trademark principles. Parts Two and Three employ different methodologies to illuminate the functionality doctrine and the significance of Traffix. Part Two develops the etymology of important functionality standards including those considered in Traffix. It highlights links among the standards, and between the standards and evidence of functionality. Part Two's etymology suggests Part Three's economic methodology. The strength of the economic lens amplifies and simplifies the doctrine while its limitations help to explain why the functionality doctrine has been problematic and why Traffix is …

Academic And Psychosocial Outcomes Of A Physical Activity Program With Fourth Graders: Variations Among Schools In Six Urban School Districts, Cheryl L. Somers, Erin E. Centeio, Noel Kulik, Alex Garn, Jeffry Martin, Bo Shen, Mariane Fahlman, Nathan A. Mccaughtry

Kinesiology, Health and Sport Studies

The purpose was to examine academic achievement, school attachment, and peer acceptance before and after a comprehensive school-based physical activity program (CSPAP) with 378 children in 12 fourth-grade classrooms across six schools in primarily low-socioeconomic status (SES) districts of a large Midwestern metropolitan area. Both personal and normative rate of academic achievement improvement metrics were used. Overall, all students showed personal math and reading growth. However, effects varied by types of achievement indicator and comparison group, revealing noteworthy school-level demographic and implementation characteristics that are inextricably intertwined with program effectiveness and student growth. Implications, especially for minimizing generalizations, are significant.

The Village Market: New Columbia Goes Shopping For Food Justice, Jane Therese Waddell

Dissertations and Theses

The Village Market is a nonprofit Healthy Corner Store that has been open since May of 2011 in the mixed-use, mixed-income New Columbia housing development in Portland, Oregon's Portsmouth neighborhood. The venture began as a "community-led" effort in partnership with Janus Youth Programs and Home Forward. The project was conceived after a private enterprise in the small grocery space designed into the development failed, leaving the neighborhood without easy access to healthy foods. This dissertation is a case study of the development process, the operation of the market, and the degree to which it addresses food justice and health equity …

Time From Screening Mammography To Biopsy And From Biopsy To Breast Cancer Treatment Among Black And White, Women Medicare Beneficiaries Not Participating In A Health Maintenance Organization, Rebecca Selove, Barbara Kilbourne, Mary Kay Fadden, Maureen Sanderson, Maya Foster, Regina Offodile, Baqar Husaini, Charles Mouton, Robert S. Levine

Sociology Faculty Research

Purpose

There is a breast cancer mortality gap adversely affecting Black women in the United States. This study assessed the relationship between number of days between abnormal mammogram, biopsy, and treatment among Medicare (Part B) beneficiaries ages 65 to 74 and 75 to 84 years, accounting for race and comorbidity.

Methods

A cohort of non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White women residing in the continental United States and receiving no services from a health maintenance organization was randomly selected from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services denominator file. The cohort was followed from 2005 to 2008 using Center …

Compliance Of Patients With Locally Advanced Colorectal Cancer To Chemotherapy Using Folfox Compared To Xelox Regimen, Dana S. Kusnadi, Agi S. Putranto, Rofi Y. Saunar, Aria Kekalih, Yefta Moenadjat

The New Ropanasuri Journal of Surgery

Introduction. Adjuvant chemotherapy become the treatment of choice in advance colorectal cancer to prevent recurrence. Studies showed that FOLFOX and XELOX regimen has been proven to increase overall survival rate and disease free survival. This study is aimed to compare XELOX response to FOLFOX regimen in our center, which is characterized by advanced stage neoplasm in the first presentation with low compliance. It also aimed to find out affecting factors of such response. Method. We run a retrospective study enrolled of 133 subjects with colorectal carcinoma of stage III and high–risk stage II who received adjuvant chemotherapy and treated in …

Impact Of Different Fecal Processing Methods On Assessments Of Bacterial Diversity In The Human Intestine, Yu Hsin Hsieh, Courtney M. Peterson, Anne Raggio, Michael J. Keenan, Roy J. Martin, Eric Ravussin, Maria L. Marco

Faculty Publications

The intestinal microbiota are integral to understanding the relationships between nutrition and health. Therefore, fecal sampling and processing protocols for metagenomic surveys should be sufficiently robust, accurate, and reliable to identify the microorganisms present. We investigated the use of different fecal preparation methods on the bacterial community structures identified in human stools. Complete stools were collected from six healthy individuals and processed according to the following methods: (i) randomly sampled fresh stool, (ii) fresh stool homogenized in a blender for 2 min, (iii) randomly sampled frozen stool, and (iv) frozen stool homogenized in a blender for 2 min, or (v) …

Juvenile Hormone Regulation Of Female Reproduction In The Common Bed Bug, Cimex Lectularius, Hemant Gujar, Subba Reddy Palli

Entomology Faculty Publications

To begin studies on reproduction in common bed bug, Cimex lectularius, we identified three genes coding for vitellogenin (Vg, a protein required for the reproductive success of insects) and studied their hormonal regulation. RNA interference studied showed that expression of Vg3 gene in the adult females is a prerequisite for successful completion of embryogenesis in the eggs laid by them. Juvenile hormone (JH) receptor, Methoprene-tolerant (Met), steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) and GATAa but not ecdysone receptor (EcR) or its partner, ultraspiracle (USP) are required for expression of Vg genes. Feeding and mating working through Vg, Met, SRC, EcR, and …

Characterization And Development Mechanism Of Apios Americana Tuber Starch, Hanyu Yangchen, Vikas Belamkar, Steven B. Cannon, Jay-Lin Jane

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Apios americana is a wild legume-bearing plant with edible tubers. Domestication of Apios is in progress because of the superior nutritional value and health benefits of the tuber. Objectives of this study were to: (1) characterize physicochemical properties of the Apios tuber starch; and (2) understand differences in starch structures and properties between the mother (seed) and child (progeny) tubers and the mechanism of starch development. Granules of the Apios tuber starch displayed ellipsoidal, rod, or kidney shape with diameter ranges of 1–30 m. The mother tuber starches displayed greater percentage crystallinity, larger gelatinization enthalpy-changes, longer branch-chain lengths of amylopectin, …

Early Detection And Management Of Delirium Through Routine Nurse Screening On Older Adult Hospitalized Patients, Elaine Duterte Delvo-Favre

DNP and Student Works

Nurses play a crucial role in implementing care designed to reduce delirium's duration and severity. Unmanaged delirium in the older adult patient population can result in prolonged hospitalization, profound decline in health status, and possible short or long-term institutionalization. A nurse-driven delirium management protocol was piloted on an orthopedic surgical unit over a period of four weeks. The goal was to detect delirium early in the postoperative period for early management and thus, the patient would be free of delirium symptoms at discharge.

All patients age 65 years old and over were assessed for delirium every shift and a delirium …
