Management Of Undernutrition And Failure To Thrive In Children With Congenital Heart Disease In Low- And Middle-Income Countries, Andrew C. Argent, Rakhi Balachandran, Balu Vaidyanathan, Amina Khan, R. Krishna Kumar Dec 2017

Management Of Undernutrition And Failure To Thrive In Children With Congenital Heart Disease In Low- And Middle-Income Countries, Andrew C. Argent, Rakhi Balachandran, Balu Vaidyanathan, Amina Khan, R. Krishna Kumar

Section of Cardiology

Poor growth with underweight for age, decreased length/height for age, and underweight-for-height are all relatively common in children with CHD. The underlying causes of this failure to thrive may be multifactorial, including innate growth potential, severity of cardiac disease, increased energy requirements, decreased nutritional intake, malabsorption, and poor utilisation of absorbed nutrition. These factors are particularly common and severe in low- and middle-income countries. Although nutrition should be carefully assessed in all patients, failure of growth is not a contraindication to surgical repair, and patients should receive surgical repair where indicated as soon as possible. Close attention should be paid …

Extrusion Deposition Additive Manufacturing Of Fiber Reinforced Semi- Crystalline Polymers, Bastian Brenken Dec 2017

Extrusion Deposition Additive Manufacturing Of Fiber Reinforced Semi- Crystalline Polymers, Bastian Brenken

Open Access Dissertations

The Extrusion Deposition Additive Manufacturing (EDAM) process is an additive manufacturing technique that shows great potential for producing tooling and molds for traditional composite manufacturing methods. However, additive manufacturing processes are still optimized based on empirically calibrated process conditions and require costly trial and error approaches. During the EDAM process with composites, the temperature history of the printing material drives the evolution of internal stresses in a printed component, which could result in a failure of the print or excessive deformation. Therefore, a set of simulation tools was developed in this work to model the solidification behavior of a fiber …

A Computational And Experimental Investigation Of Lignin Metabolism In Arabidopsis Thaliana., Rohit Jaini Dec 2017

A Computational And Experimental Investigation Of Lignin Metabolism In Arabidopsis Thaliana., Rohit Jaini

Open Access Dissertations

Predominantly localized in plant secondary cell walls, lignin is a highly crosslinked, aromatic polymer that imparts structural support to plant vasculature, and renders biomass recalcitrant to pretreatment techniques impeding the economical production of biofuels. Lignin is synthesized via the phenylpropanoid pathway where the primary precursor phenylalanine (Phe) undergoes a series of functional modifications catalyzed by 11 enzyme families to produce p-coumaryl, coniferyl, and sinapyl alcohol, which undergo random polymerization into lignin. Several metabolic engineering efforts have aimed to alter lignin content and composition, and make biofuel feedstock more amenable to pretreatment techniques. Despite significant advances, several questions pertaining to carbon …

Automated Patch Point Placement Capability For Hybrid Trajectory Targeting, Christopher M. Spreen Dec 2017

Automated Patch Point Placement Capability For Hybrid Trajectory Targeting, Christopher M. Spreen

Open Access Dissertations

In this investigation, the automation of trajectory discretization, in the form of patch point placement, is explored, along with the effects of such automated strategies on differential corrections processes. To begin, current differential corrections algorithms are presented and evaluated. Extensions of these algorithms into a higher-order ephemeris force model are explored and a hybrid differential corrections algorithm suitable for high-fidelity dynamical environments is proposed. With an appropriate differential corrections algorithm in place, a metric for quantifying the sensitivity of a trajectory to small perturbations is detailed. This sensitivity metric, known as a Lyapunov exponent, is subsequently leveraged to provide information …

A Retrospective Chart Review Comparing Nutritional Screening Tools (Mna-Sf And Must) In Identifying Malnutrition In Older Adults Admitted To A Hospital In 2016, Elizabeth Schneider

2017 Fall Honors Capstone Projects - Archive

There are many factors that contribute toward negative outcomes in the healthcare setting for hospitalized older adults (Tappenden, Quatrara, Parkhurst, Malone, Fanjiang, & Ziegler, 2013). One of these factors includes meeting nutritional requirements. Unfortunately, many cases of malnutrition in patients 65 years and older, who are admitted to the hospital, go unnoticed due to the lack of nutritional screening tool implementation (Tappenden et al., 2013). Therefore, this study looks at two of the most popular nutritional screening tools, the MNA-SF and MUST, to identify malnutrition in older adults with a preexisting diagnosis of either malnutrition or failure to thrive and …

Design Of The Integral Parts Of A Bridge Substructure To Be Built In 15 Days, Nyoka Amy Florius

2017 Fall Honors Capstone Projects - Archive

Bridges are key elements of our transportation system. They allow one highway to go over another, or over railroad tracks. They allow highways and railroads to pass over water. In any bridge, the components can be separated into the substructure and superstructure. While they are both key parts of an overall structure, the structure would not exist if it did not have a foundation. The project was to design a fast-tracked bridge, one that could be built in 15 days. The bridge abutment and bent cap were designed in detail, and methods to facilitate the fast-track construction were considered in …

Obesity, Dyspnea On Exertion And Health Related Quality Of Life In Obese Males, Lauren Crane Dec 2017

Obesity, Dyspnea On Exertion And Health Related Quality Of Life In Obese Males, Lauren Crane

2017 Fall Honors Capstone Projects - Archive

Previous research has shown that one in three otherwise healthy obese adults experience dyspnea on exertion (DOE). Both dyspnea and obesity can have a negative influence on a person’s health related quality of life (HRQOL). However, it is unclear if these relationships can be found in otherwise healthy mild-to-moderately obese men. In this study, we examined the relationship between 1) obesity and HRQOL, and 2) dyspnea on exertion (DOE) and HRQOL. A secondary analysis was conducted from the baseline data of an interventional 12-week weight loss study. Volunteers filled out the Medical Outcomes Short Form-36 (SF36) as the measurement for …

A Deep Chandra Study Of Galactic Type Ia Supernova Remnant G299.2-2.9, Seth Aaron Post Dec 2017

A Deep Chandra Study Of Galactic Type Ia Supernova Remnant G299.2-2.9, Seth Aaron Post

Physics Dissertations - Archive

In this thesis we perform a comprehensive analysis of Galactic Type Ia supernova remnant G299.2-2.9. For this study we analyze our deep 628 ks Chandra observation data of G299.2-2.9. G299.2-2.9 has a complex multiple shell-like structure consisting of a bright inner shell, with enhancements ("knots") in the northeastern portion of the shell, and a fainter diffuse outer shell. Our spectral analysis of the outer shells of G299.2-2.9 shows that the bright inner and faint outer shells appear to be emission features from the swept-up ambient medium (by the supernova blast wave) whose density is relatively uniform along the distance from …

Studies In Liquid And Ion Chromatography, Akinde Florence Kadjo Dec 2017

Studies In Liquid And Ion Chromatography, Akinde Florence Kadjo

Chemistry & Biochemistry Dissertations - Archive

Height- and area-based quantitation approaches reduce two-dimensional data to a single value. For a calibration set, there is a single height- or area-based quantitation equation. We introduce a new quantitation method; a Width based method that consists of using the width of a peak (Wh), at any height h, (a fixed height, not a fixed fraction of the peak maximum), leading to any number of calibration curves. This particularity of width-based quantitation (WBQ) allows the quantitation of peaks over very large scales, making the quantitation of truncated peaks possible. We showed that WBQ can offer superior overall performance (lower root …

Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses - Archive

Ruthenium polypyridyl complexes (RPCs) represent a promising therapeiutic class of drugs for transition-metal based anticancer drug development. The complex [(phen)2Ru(tatpp)Ru(phen)2] (44+) is a RPC which has shown success in both cell free and cellular assay. Unlike many other RPCs, 44+ can selectively kill malignant cells without light irradiation from external sources. This binuclear complex 44+ is a DNA intercalator containing redox-active ligand tatpp (9,11,20,22-Tetraaza tetrapyrido[3,2-a:2'3'-c:3'',2''- 1:2''',3''']-pentacene) which cleaves DNA in presence of a mild reducing agent, i.e. glutathione (GSH).1,2,3 The cellular assay (MTT assay) with different types of malignant cells has also established this as an equally potent cytotoxic agent …

Petrophysical Properties Of The Woodford Formation In The Ardmore Basin In Oklahoma, U.S.A, Benjamin Ryan

Earth & Environmental Sciences Theses - Archive

A prolific source rock in Oklahoma, the Woodford Shale has sourced petroleum reservoirs for millions of years and produced oil and gas since 1939. Not until the shale boom of the early 2000’s was the full potential of the Woodford Shale, as a reservoir, realized. The focus of this research is to characterize three (the main ones) of the four petro-physically distinct zones within the Ardmore Woodford Shale in order to investigate the ideal zone for hydrocarbon extraction. The Woodford Shale is composed of tight, organic-rich, interbedded shale and chert beds deposited along a marine slope. Due to its tight …

Nano-Scale Petrophysical Studies Of The Gothic Shale Interval In The Paradox Basin, Colorado, U.S.A., Marvin L. Dunbar Dec 2017

Nano-Scale Petrophysical Studies Of The Gothic Shale Interval In The Paradox Basin, Colorado, U.S.A., Marvin L. Dunbar

Earth & Environmental Sciences Theses - Archive

Hydrocarbon production from shale has become a main energy source for the United States. Consequently, an increased knowledge of the petrophysical properties of shale such as porosity, permeability, tortuosity, and fluid-rock interactions (e.g., contact angle, imbibition) will improve production efficiency. Because of their minute size (nanoscale), the knowledge of pore structure (i.e., pore geometry and connectivity) has proven difficult to understand. Analyzing the pore size distribution and pore connectivity of Gothic Shale from selected locations in the Montezuma County of Colorado will lead to recommendations for greater oil production efficiency, fostering innovation into a thriving, environmentally safe, oil and gas …

Nanopetrophysics Characterization Of The Mancos Shale Formation In The San Juan Basin Of Northwestern New Mexico, U.S.A., Richard Kalteyer Dec 2017

Nanopetrophysics Characterization Of The Mancos Shale Formation In The San Juan Basin Of Northwestern New Mexico, U.S.A., Richard Kalteyer

Earth & Environmental Sciences Theses - Archive

The Mancos Shale of the San Juan Basin is no stranger to the drilling of oil and gas, but traditional exploration within the region has predominantly been limited to the use of conventional vertical wells. Due to the recent advances in drilling and completion technologies, a large focus of oil and gas exploration has shifted towards the development of unconventional reservoirs. Because of these significant breakthroughs, it comes as no surprise that an increased interest in further developing the Mancos Shale has taken place. However, like most unconventional plays, low porosity and extremely low permeability characterize the Mancos Shale. These …

Statistical Estimation In Multivariate Normal Distribution With A Block Of Missing Observations, Yi Liu

Mathematics Dissertations - Archive

Missing observations occur quite often in data analysis. We study a random sample from a multivariate normal distribution with a block of missing observations, here the observations missing is not at random. We use maximum likelihood method to obtain the estimators from such a sample. The properties of the estimators are derived. The prediction problem is considered when the response variable has missing values. The variances of the mean estimators of the response variable under with and without extra information are compared. We prove that the variance of the mean estimator of the response variable using all data is smaller …

Waiting As Resistance: Lingering, Loafing, And Whiling Away, Harold Schweizer Dec 2017

Waiting As Resistance: Lingering, Loafing, And Whiling Away, Harold Schweizer

Faculty Journal Articles

„Waiting as Resistance: Lingering, Loafing, and Whiling Away” is a critique of the economics of consumption, suggesting that the widespread denigration of waiting as lost time and its economic and psychological displacements in consumer goods amount to a denigration of human life itself. In the practice of lingering and its related temporalities, the author proposes, we regain an appreciation of the fundamental temporality of all things, that everything, we humans included, is constituted by time. Conceptually indebted to Theodor Adorno and substantiated with reference, chiefly to Walt Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass” and other poetic works, this argument throughout opposes the …

Economic Growth Or Economic Development? An Examination Of Local Government Objectives Through Citizen Well-Being Framework., Mohd Mobin Khan Dec 2017

Economic Growth Or Economic Development? An Examination Of Local Government Objectives Through Citizen Well-Being Framework., Mohd Mobin Khan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Economic development is considered one of the key functions and responsibilities of Federal, State, and local governments in the United States. However, most of the policies and strategies related to economic development, regardless of their focus or funding, have a strong role of municipalities for their implementation. Within local governments, economic development efforts often seem to not truly focus on the aspects of ‘development,’ but can rather be characterized as focused on economic ‘growth’ and measured in terms of economic activity generated. Job creation and the enhancement of tax base or revenue are considered two of the most important goals …
