Difficult Of Imagining And Accepting The Other: The Sunni In Iran And The Shi'a In Bahrain, Nermeen Essam Adel Aziz

Archived Theses and Dissertations

The legal basis in Iran and Bahrain whether domestic law or international law regulates and determines the government's attitude and behavior towards its people. At the same time, state's attitude affects the way in which laws are formulated and implemented at the same time. Iran and Bahrain represent two critical examples in addressing the issue of majority and minority rights and the idea of imagining and accepting the other in terms of human rights violations. The inability of imaging the other leads to human rights violations in both states. These violations are committed in one case by a majority towards …

"I Am Not Good Enough For The State Because I Am A Woman": The Feminization Of Poverty, A Violation Of Women's Social Rights?, Masa Amir

Archived Theses and Dissertations

This thesis explores the conception of the feminization of poverty, the notion that women experience a higher incidence of poverty than men, that women are prone to suffer more persistent/long-term poverty than men, that women's disproportionate burden of poverty is rising relative to men, that women face more barriers to lifting themselves out of poverty, that the â feminization of poverty' is linked with the â feminization of household headship,' and that women-headed households are the poorest of the poor. Seeing that poverty has been defined as capability deprivation that prevents individuals from leading the kind of life they have …

Developing Core-Shell Silver/Polymeric Nano-Composites As Drug Nano-Carriers For Breast Cancer Therapy, Nancy Mohamed El-Baz

Archived Theses and Dissertations

In an attempt to find an effective cancer therapy, nanotherapeutics comes onto the scene as a new therapeutic approach, which is emerging both nanotechnology and biotechnology. Nanotherapeutics offer tremendous advantages over conventional cancer therapy including prolonged drug systemic circulation half-life, targeted drug delivery and nanoparticles-based combination therapy, which result in improving drug pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy/toxicity balance. Recently, ongoing studies regarding cancer therapy are focusing on the anticancer action of various inorganic nanoparticles such as gold (AuNPs) and silver (AgNPs) nanoparticles. In fact, AgNPs have proven a potent anticancer action on different cancer types.


"Claiming The Mad": Implications Of The Introduction Of The Mental Asylum In Colonial Egypt, Samar Gamal Nour Dec 2021

"Claiming The Mad": Implications Of The Introduction Of The Mental Asylum In Colonial Egypt, Samar Gamal Nour

Archived Theses and Dissertations

What was colonial about colonial psychiatry in Egypt? Recent scholarship on colonial psychiatry opens a new window into this important historical problem and offers significant, if ambiguous, evidence about the practice of what we can call colonial psychology and what was considered pathological (mental) in the colonial context, thereby shedding light on the normal as well and hence elaborates on the proclivity of colonial psychiatry to provide a "naturalized" and pathologjzed accounts of the colonized subjects. The introduction of the modern European asylum in 1884 significantly changed the definition and perception of mental illness and madness in Egypt, as it …

Between Politics And Procreation: Examining The Role Of Integration In Ethiopian Israeli Fertility Transition, Annice Young Dec 2021

Between Politics And Procreation: Examining The Role Of Integration In Ethiopian Israeli Fertility Transition, Annice Young

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Both ominous and apocalyptic, Israel's fertility regime is fraught with demographic paranoia that its Jewish majority won't survive natural Palestinian growth. To remedy this â demographic threat,â Israel has implemented the most active immigration and fertility policies in the world, boasting the highest number of fertility clinics per capita while opening its borders to all Jews regardless of national origin. This paper will examine the social impact of Israel's immigration policy, using the fertility practices of Ethiopian Jewish migrants as a case study. I aim to explore how latent discourses of racial hygiene, cloaked in national security, are reflected in …


Binary Variations On An Unfortunate Theme: Towards A Sustainable Analysis Of Human Trafficking, Matthew Dompier Dec 2021

Binary Variations On An Unfortunate Theme: Towards A Sustainable Analysis Of Human Trafficking, Matthew Dompier

Archived Theses and Dissertations

The current state of international law and human rights provide a rich context for a critique of the discourse of human trafficking: how the discourse is framed, how it is used and what the effects of this use are. This research suggests that the discourse of human trafficking is often employed in a binary, dualistic manner in its framing, conceptualization and common manifestations. The binary determination of human trafficking as a human right violation or a crime was particularly evident in the negotiating process for the definition of human trafficking contained in the UN Trafficking Protocol, which represented an opportunity …

Allegory, Symbolism, And Metaphor In Le Roman De Fauvel, Maria Coulter, Jake Loitz, Cait Duffy

2021 Festschrift: The Interpolated Roman de Fauvel in Context

Roman de Fauvel is a 14th century work composed of poetry, story, an overarching narrative, and music to accompany the literature. In this study, our research is dedicated towards finding and analyzing the many instances of allegory and symbolism in the highly philosophical, satirical, and critical work. Using French 13th and 14th century historical context, we determine the origins of the subject matter of these allegories. Through this historical lens, we can observe what du Bus wants to convey through allegory as a response to his historical climate, and we can take that response and assign meaning to it in …

Covid Primary Care Remobilization Through Schedule Improvement And Care Team Optimization, Christine Cote, Catherine Boucher-Cornelio, Jordan S. Peck

Southern Maine Health Care

In March 2020 Southern Maine Health Care (SMHC) suspended non-urgent services in order to respond to the emerging COVID-19 crisis. By July 2020 the system was prepared to re-open core services. Significant losses in staffing and a high backlog of demand required our primary care practices to think differently about operations in order to increase capacity while not burning out team members. A pilot team from our Saco Family Medicine Practice was selected to perform rapid tests of change with the goal of returning to pre-COVID visit rates (~16 visits per provider per day).

Pranayama Breathing Detection With Deep Learning, Bikash Shrestha

Theses

Yoga, a complementary health approach, according to a 2017 National Health Interview Survey by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is a choice of around 14.3% adults in the US. Kapalbhati pranayama, a yoga practice of alternating fast exhales and longer passive inhales, is understood to improve our health. Incorrect and irregular practices, however, can cause injuries and adverse effects. To avoid these undesired effects, it is essential to maintain a pace fit for the practitioner. In the absence of any tools to observe a pace of practice, this work develops a deep learning method that listens to …

Primary Localized Amyloidosis Of The Ureter With Osseous Metaplasia Presenting As A Suspicious Ureteral Mass, Nada Shaker, Zofia Tynski, Madeline Hudlak, Roy R Brown, Shadi Qasem, Anil Parwani

Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Faculty Publications

Primary amyloidosis of the ureter is a rare disease that is difficult to distinguish from urothelial carcinoma. Only 50 cases of primary ureter amyloidosis have been reported since it was first described in 1937. Of these, only five cases of ureter amyloidosis with osseous metaplasia were reported. In this study, we report the clinical presentation of ureter primary amyloidosis that presented as a mass with osseous metaplasia. The aim of this study is to provide clinicians with knowledge about the clinical/radiologic manifestation that raise the suspicion of amyloidosis, bearing in mind the importance of differentiating it from other "malignant" processes.
