Understanding The Effects Of Both Cd14-Mediated Innate Immunity And Device/Tissue Mechanical Mismatch In The Neuroinflammatory Response To Intracortical Microelectrodes, Hillary W. Bedell, Sydney S. Song, Xujia Li, Emily Molinich, Shushen Lin, Andrew J. Shoffstall, Jeffrey R. Capadona

Faculty Scholarship

Intracortical microelectrodes record neuronal activity of individual neurons within the brain, which can be used to bridge communication between the biological system and computer hardware for both research and rehabilitation purposes. However, long-term consistent neural recordings are difficult to achieve, in large part due to the neuroinflammatory tissue response to the microelectrodes. Prior studies have identified many factors that may contribute to the neuroinflammatory response to intracortical microelectrodes. Unfortunately, each proposed mechanism for the prolonged neuroinflammatory response has been investigated independently, while it is clear that mechanisms can overlap and be difficult to isolate. Therefore, we aimed to determine whether …

U.S. College Students’ Social Network Characteristics And Perceived Social Exclusion: A Comparison Between Drinkers And Nondrinkers Based On Pastmonth Alcohol Use, Sara G. Balestrieri, Graham T. Diguiseppi, Matthew Meisel, Melissa A. Clark, Miles Q. Ott, Nancy P. Barnett

Statistical and Data Sciences: Faculty Publications

There is a general perception on college campuses that alcohol use is normative. However, nondrinking students account for 40% of the U.S. college population. With much of the literature focusing on intervening among drinkers, there has been less of a focus on understanding the nondrinker college experience. The current study has two aims: to describe the social network differences between nondrinkers and drinkers in a college setting, and to assess perceived social exclusion among nondrinkers. METHOD:First-year U.S. college students (n = 1,342; 55.3% female; 47.7% non-Hispanic White) were participants in a larger study examining a social network of one college …

Src-Family Kinase-Cbl Axis Negatively Regulates Nlrp3 Inflammasome Activation., I-Che Chung, Sheng-Ning Yuan, Chun-Nan Ouyang, Hsin-Chung Lin, Kuo-Yang Huang, Yu-Jen Chen, An-Ko Chung, Ching-Liang Chu, David M. Ojcius, Yu-Sun Chang, Lih-Chyang Chen

All Dugoni School of Dentistry Faculty Articles

Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is crucial for immune defense, but improper and excessive activation causes inflammatory diseases. We previously reported that Pyk2 is essential for NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Here we show that the Src-family kinases (SFKs)-Cbl axis plays a pivotal role in suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation in response to stimulation by nigericin or ATP, as assessed using gene knockout and gene knockdown cells, dominant active/negative mutants, and pharmacological inhibition. We reveal that the phosphorylation of Cbl is regulated by SFKs, and that phosphorylation of Cbl at Tyr371 suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Mechanistically, Cbl decreases the level of phosphorylated Pyk2 …

Involuntary Termination From Substance Use Disorder Treatment: Unknown Phantoms, Red Flags, And Unexplained Medical Data, Izaak L. Williams

Journal of Human Services: Training, Research, and Practice

In the United States, all treatment programs receiving public funds are required by law to regularly submit admission and discharge data, inclusive of the forced/involuntary termination or administrative discharge of clients, to their local state authorities. In some states, this requirement even extends to programs not receiving public funds. The aim of collecting discharge data—collected under the auspices of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Association [SAMHSA]—is to assist state and county authorities, funders, and accreditors to monitor recovery-focused program performance. However, investigation here undertaken shows that published discharge data from many state treatment settings are perennially and grossly …

Selective Stimulability In The Speech And Language Assessment Of Bilingual Children With Selective Mutism, Elizabeth Harbaugh , M.S., Ccc-Slp, Raul F. Prezas , Ph.D., Ccc-Slp, Robin L. Edge , Ph.D., Ccc-Slp

Journal of Human Services: Training, Research, and Practice

English Language Learners (ELLs) with Selective Mutism (SM) mirror their typically developing, bilingual peers who are going through the silent period. The silent period is a normal phenomenon characterized by decreased expressive language and a general lack of communication that is temporary. Understanding second language acquisition and differentiating SM from the silent period, however, is critical to reduce over- and under-identification of children for services. Whereas bilingual children with SM do not speak in either of their languages, bilingual children in the silent period are only silent in their second language. Although limited information exists regarding assessment and treatment for …

The Five Love Languages Program: An Exploratory Investigation Points To Improvements In Relationship Functioning, Allison Nichols, Jane Riffe, Cheryl Kaczor, Ami Cook, Gwen Crum, Andrea Hoover, Terrill Peck, Rebecca Smith

Journal of Human Sciences and Extension

The authors describe an exploratory investigation of a relationship education program based on the Five Love Languages (5 LL) (Chapman, 2007), implemented by Extension educators in seven rural counties. Relationship assessments measured participant changes related to the quality of the primary relationship, belief in the future of the relationship, and partner empathy. Confidence in using the 5 LLs was also assessed. Two groups were compared, a “no booster” group that participated in didactic and final sessions and a “booster” group that received a book, tips, and reminders to practice the 5 LLs. Focus groups revealed how participants benefited. The results …

Impact Of Observed And Controlled Water Intake On Reticulorumen Temperature In Lactating Dairy Cattle, Melissa C. Cantor, Joao H. C. Costa, Jeffrey M. Bewley

Animal and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

Dairy precision technologies helps producers monitor individual animals. Reticulorumen temperature boluses are a way to monitor core body temperature; however, factors such as water intake affects reticulorumen temperature. This research determined the effect of natural water intake and a controlled water drench on reticulorumen temperature (RT) in dairy cattle. In observational study part 1, tie- stall cows (n = 4) with RT transponders were observed for natural water intake (recorded by in line water meters) for 48 h. In experiment part 2, a randomized Latin square design with cows (n = 12) restricted on feed for 4 h, …

Results show a high prevalence of psychological problems among older Indonesian adults, which is comparable to the findings of Western studies. This means that these older adults are at risk for psychological disorders; 46.28% experienced stress, 31.72% were depressed, 33.69% suffered from insomnia, and 16.84% had difficulty dealing with chronic …

Job Satisfaction And Turnover Intention: The Mediating Effect Of Affective Commitment, Galih Kartika, Debora Eflina Purba

Psychological Research on Urban Society

This study examined the mediating effects of affective commitment on the relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention in international school teachers. Previous research that assumed the total organizational commitment score to be the mediator between job satisfaction and turnover intention, found that organizational commitment only partially mediated the relationship. Therefore, the present study contributes to the literature by focusing only the mediating effect of affective commitment as this variable has been identified as having the greatest effect on organizational outcomes compared to normative and continuance commitments. A survey was conducted on 80 teachers in an international school in Jakarta, …
