A Three-Position Air Rifle Range Officer E-Learning Module, Katherine Harrington Dec 2016

A Three-Position Air Rifle Range Officer E-Learning Module, Katherine Harrington

Master of Education in Instructional Design and Technology Plan II Graduate Projects

This project focused on the rationale and development procedures for a computer-based training module for the purpose of instructing officials on the safe and fair conduct of three-position air rifle competitions. While hundreds of competitions are conducted around the country each year, no training existed for the officials in this specific shooting discipline. This project aimed to establish consistent training so that all competitions are conducted by at least one trained official. The learning module was developed using the analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation (ADDIE) model of instructional systems design. After the course was developed, data was collected to …

Joint And Selective Periodic Component Carrier Assignment In Lte-A, Husnu S. Narman, Mohammed Atiquzzaman, Mehdi Rahmani-Andebili, Haiying Shen Dec 2016

Joint And Selective Periodic Component Carrier Assignment In Lte-A, Husnu S. Narman, Mohammed Atiquzzaman, Mehdi Rahmani-Andebili, Haiying Shen

Computer Sciences and Electrical Engineering Faculty Research

The bandwidth demand for mobile Internet access is significantly increased with the number of mobile users. Carrier aggregation has been proposed to answer this demand in mobile networks. In carrier aggregation, the best available one or more component carriers of each band are assigned to each user to provide efficient services. Several works have been reported in the literature on mandatory and periodic component carrier assignment methods. Although the former works, especially periodic component carrier assignment methods, have significantly improved the performance of LTE-A systems, many limitations still exist. One limitation of previous works is that data transfer is interrupted …

Phthalate Plasticizers Covalently Linked To Pvc Via Copper-Free Or Copper Catalyzed Axide-Alkyne Cycloadditions, Aruna Earla, Li Longbo, Philip Costanzo, Rebecca Braslau Dec 2016

Phthalate Plasticizers Covalently Linked To Pvc Via Copper-Free Or Copper Catalyzed Axide-Alkyne Cycloadditions, Aruna Earla, Li Longbo, Philip Costanzo, Rebecca Braslau

Chemistry and Biochemistry

Plasticization of PVC was carried out by covalently linking phthalate derivatives via copper-free (thermal) or copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions. Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate derivatives (DEHP-ether and DEHP-ester) were synthesized and appended to PVC at two different densities. The glass transition temperatures of the modified PVC decreased with increasing content of plasticizer. PVC-DEHP-ether gave lower glass transition temperatures than PVC-DEHP-ester, reflecting the enhanced flexibility of the ether versus ester linker.

Physical Therapy Treatment Of A Patient With Chronic Low Back Pain And A Previous History Of A Substance Abuse Disorder: A Case Report, Marcus X. Alomar, Brian T. Swanson Dec 2016

Physical Therapy Treatment Of A Patient With Chronic Low Back Pain And A Previous History Of A Substance Abuse Disorder: A Case Report, Marcus X. Alomar, Brian T. Swanson

Case Report Posters

The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) reported that an estimated 27 million people in the United States have reported use of an illicit drug within the past month. Low back pain continues to be a major cause of disability in the United States, with an estimated 70 percent of adults experiencing low back pain at some point during their lifetime. Active exercise programs that include pain education and cognitive behavioral therapy demonstrated significant superior outcome at reducing pain intensity, anxiety/depression, disability, and fear-avoidance compared to therapeutic exercise and manual therapy alone for patients with non-specific chronic low …

The Defining Dna Methylation Signature Of Floating-Harbor Syndrome, Rebecca L. Hood, Laila C. Schenkel, Sarah M. Nikkel, Peter J. Ainsworth, Guillaume Pare, Kym M. Boycott, Dennis E. Bulman, Bekim Sadikovic Dec 2016

The Defining Dna Methylation Signature Of Floating-Harbor Syndrome, Rebecca L. Hood, Laila C. Schenkel, Sarah M. Nikkel, Peter J. Ainsworth, Guillaume Pare, Kym M. Boycott, Dennis E. Bulman, Bekim Sadikovic

Paediatrics Publications

Floating-Harbor syndrome (FHS) is an autosomal dominant genetic condition characterized by short stature, delayed osseous maturation, expressive language impairment, and unique facial dysmorphology. We previously identified mutations in the chromatin remodeling protein SRCAP (SNF2-related CBP Activator Protein) as the cause of FHS. SRCAP has multiple roles in chromatin and transcriptional regulation; however, specific epigenetic consequences of SRCAP mutations remain to be described. Using high resolution genome-wide DNA methylation analysis, we identified a unique and highly specific DNA methylation "epi-signature" in the peripheral blood of individuals with FHS. Both hyper and hypomethylated loci are distributed across the genome, preferentially occurring in …

Mobilising Expertise And Resources To Close The Radiotherapy Gap In Cancer Care., D Rodin, J Longo, T Sherertz, M M Shah, O Balagun, N Wendling, Jacob Van Dyk, C N Coleman, M J Xu, S Grover Dec 2016

Mobilising Expertise And Resources To Close The Radiotherapy Gap In Cancer Care., D Rodin, J Longo, T Sherertz, M M Shah, O Balagun, N Wendling, Jacob Van Dyk, C N Coleman, M J Xu, S Grover

Oncology Publications

Closing the gap in cancer care within low- and middle-income countries and in indigenous and geographically isolated populations in high-income countries requires investment and innovation. This is particularly true for radiotherapy, for which the global disparity is one of the largest in healthcare today. New models and paradigms and non-traditional collaborations have been proposed to improve global equity in cancer control. We describe recent initiatives from within the radiation oncology community to increase access to treatment, build the low- and middle-income countries' radiation oncology workforce, mobilise more professionals from within high-income countries and raise awareness of the global need for …

Effect Of Arginine On Oligomerization And Stability Of N-Acetylglutamate Synthase., N Haskins, A Mumo, P H Brown, Mendel Tuchman, Hiroki Morizono, L Caldovic Dec 2016

Effect Of Arginine On Oligomerization And Stability Of N-Acetylglutamate Synthase., N Haskins, A Mumo, P H Brown, Mendel Tuchman, Hiroki Morizono, L Caldovic

Genomics and Precision Medicine Faculty Publications

N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS; E.C.2.3.1.1) catalyzes the formation of N-acetylglutamate (NAG) from acetyl coenzyme A and glutamate. In microorganisms and plants, NAG is the first intermediate of the L-arginine biosynthesis; in animals, NAG is an allosteric activator of carbamylphosphate synthetase I and III. In some bacteria bifunctional N-acetylglutamate synthase-kinase (NAGS-K) catalyzes the first two steps of L-arginine biosynthesis. L-arginine inhibits NAGS in bacteria, fungi, and plants and activates NAGS in mammals. L-arginine increased thermal stability of the NAGS-K from Maricaulis maris (MmNAGS-K) while it destabilized the NAGS-K from Xanthomonas campestris (XcNAGS-K). Analytical gel chromatography and ultracentrifugation indicated tetrameric structure of the …

Microtubule Actin Cross-Linking Factor 1, A Novel Target In Glioblastoma, Najlaa Afghani, Toral Mehta, Jialiang Wang, Nan Tang, Omar Skalli, Quincy A. Quick Dec 2016

Microtubule Actin Cross-Linking Factor 1, A Novel Target In Glioblastoma, Najlaa Afghani, Toral Mehta, Jialiang Wang, Nan Tang, Omar Skalli, Quincy A. Quick

Biology Faculty Research

Genetic heterogeneity is recognized as a major contributing factor of glioblastoma resistance to clinical treatment modalities and consequently low overall survival rates. This genetic diversity results in variations in protein expression, both intratumorally and between individual glioblastoma patients. In this regard, the spectraplakin protein, microtubule actin cross-linking factor 1 (MACF1), was examined in glioblastoma. An expression analysis of MACF1 in various types of brain tumor tissue revealed that MACF1 was predominately present in grade III-IV astroctyomas and grade IV glioblastoma, but not in normal brain tissue, normal human astrocytes and lower grade brain tumors. Subsequent genetic inhibition experiments showed that …
