Gender Disparities In Covid Deaths, Lisamarie Bennett Jan 2022

Gender Disparities In Covid Deaths, Lisamarie Bennett

Student Publications and Presentations

The public health response to the breakout of COVID-19 requires fundamental changes in individual behavior, such as isolation at home or social distancing. However, the difference in COVID mortality rates between men and women could indicate gender differences in COVID-19 attitudes and behavior. In this study, we used a sample of 512 participants to examine whether there were relationships between gender and degree of adherence to social distancing and quarantining protocols. An independent samples t-Test was conducted to evaluate the hypothesis that men spend fewer days social distancing than women. The test was not significant. Another independent samples t-Test was …

A Study On Anti-Maskers, Cole Kessler, Lauren Toy Jan 2022

A Study On Anti-Maskers, Cole Kessler, Lauren Toy

Student Publications and Presentations

In-depth interviews were conducted in September of 2021 with 15 Florida residents between the ages of 18-30 (8 males, 7 females). Our primary goal was to identify why these individuals choose not to wear face masks when required or highly recommended despite the potential legal, social, and health consequences. The researchers discovered that these individuals frame not wearing masks as physically harmless, and socially and legally acceptable. Specifically, these individuals justify their anti-masking actions using seven patterns arising from both their internal views and external influences. These patterns are: 1) Changing CDC mask wearing recommendations, 2) Mask wearing health consequences, …

The Effects Of Building Envelope Parameters On Energy Performance For High-Rise Buildings In Central Saudi Arabia, Nadia Arafah Jan 2022

The Effects Of Building Envelope Parameters On Energy Performance For High-Rise Buildings In Central Saudi Arabia, Nadia Arafah

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

Sustainable design is achievable based on the social, economic, and environmental pillars interrelated with energy consumption worldwide. Saudi Arabia is one of the largest countries that consume massive amounts of energy, mainly for generating electricity to operate buildings and cope with population growth. Despite Saudi Arabia’s fast economic development, building envelopes in Saudi Arabia deserve more research attention to address energy consumption and environmental challenges. With the extremely hot weather in the country, building occupants use air conditioning extensively to overcome the heat and achieve thermal comfort. This research analyzed building envelope variables in an existing building in Riyadh, Saudi …

The Role Of Caregiver-Reported Emerging Social Attention In Predicting Duration Of Orienting And Social Communication, Casey E. Swick Jan 2022

The Role Of Caregiver-Reported Emerging Social Attention In Predicting Duration Of Orienting And Social Communication, Casey E. Swick

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

Early identification of atypical development could lead to opportunities for earlier intervention, ultimately improving developmental outcomes. Early signs of atypical attention, social attention, and social communication development emerge in infancy, yet age at diagnosis of neurodevelopmental difficulties does not typically occur until well after the first year of life. In order to achieve this goal of early identification, sensitive and accessible tools are needed to identify infants at risk for atypical development. This study examined whether caregivers could report on emerging social attention behaviors in the first days to weeks of life with a novel, experimental scale (PediaTrac SSIP). This …

Clinical Diagnosis Of Temporal Arteritis With Seronegative And Negative Biopsy Studies, Marc Swerdloff Jan 2022

Clinical Diagnosis Of Temporal Arteritis With Seronegative And Negative Biopsy Studies, Marc Swerdloff

All Publications

Giant cell arteritis (GCA), also known as temporal arteritis is the most common of the systemic vasculitides. It occurs in individuals older than 50 years of age and peaks in incidence in the seventh decade. The gold standard for diagnosis of GCA is temporal artery biopsy (TABx) which will show transmural inflammation, but a negative biopsy does not rule out the disease. We present a case of a 66-year-old male with a classic clinical presentation of temporal arteritis with a normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and negative bilateral temporal artery biopsies. He was discharged on prednisone. Ten …
