Risk Factors For Peripheral Artery Disease-Related Amputations Among Black Americans, Darnell L. Blake
Risk Factors For Peripheral Artery Disease-Related Amputations Among Black Americans, Darnell L. Blake
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Evidence suggests that Black Americans (BAs) are at a significantly higher risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD)-related amputations. This study aimed to examine risk factors for non-traumatic lower extremity amputation (NTLEA) among BAs with PAD addressing a significant knowledge gap regarding racial disparities in PAD outcomes. Grounded in Bandura's social cognitive theory, which posits the interplay among personal factors, environmental influences, and behavior, this study examines how age, gender, income, and comorbidities like cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and diabetes influence NTLEA across various insurance types (private, Medicaid, Medicare, self-pay). This quantitative cross-sectional study used the 2020 National Inpatient Sample, 1% …

The Operator Algebras Mentor Network: Impact Of Community-Based Mentoring, Anna Duwenig, Kari Eifler, Priyanga Ganesan, Lara Ismert, Viviana Meschitti, Sarah Plosker, Karen Strung
Journal of Humanistic Mathematics
The Operator Algebras Mentor Network (OAMN) is an international mentoring initiative that offers support in small groups to women and minority genders in the particularly male-dominated field of operator algebras (OA) in mathematics. Expected advantages of membership include raising awareness of the lack of gender diversity in this field, providing advice to mentees by mentors (e.g., pertaining to career or work/life balance), broadening one’s network in OA, etc. In this project, we set out to determine if membership within the OAMN is beneficial to its members. To this end we sent a questionnaire to OAMN members and a control group …

Under The Bay: Analysis Of Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia Mydas) Dive Behavior In The Urban San Diego Bay, Emily Carter
Under The Bay: Analysis Of Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia Mydas) Dive Behavior In The Urban San Diego Bay, Emily Carter
Theses
Sea turtles are air-breathing marine reptiles that spend their lives performing dives to travel, forage, and rest. Several dive types have been previously recorded for sea turtles, each type being associated with a different set of behaviors. U-dives, or Type 1 dives are widely characterized by extensive benthic periods preceded by and concluding with abrupt descent and ascent phases respectively (Minamikawa et al. 1997; Houghton et al. 2002; Seminoff et al. 2006). These dives are widely affiliated with turtle resting behavior though can be indicative of additional activities including benthic travel and foraging. Previous research of green turtle dive behavior …

An Analysis Of Green Water Footprint In Java Island Using The Cropwat Model, Emilya Nurjani, Anggun Nur Zahwa, Husnul Khotimah Setiacahyandari, Rofiana Budi Ayumi Sita Dewi, Isna Pujiastuti
Jurnal Pendidikan Geografi: Kajian, Teori, dan Praktek dalam Bidang Pendidikan dan Ilmu Geografi
Every human activity requires water, so if the water needs cannot be met from the natural availability of the region itself, then the water needs must be met from other regions. This concept is the basis for calculating virtual water flow and water footprint. Inequality or imbalance between the availability and demand for water in an area will make water a scarce commodity. From an economic point of view, it will become an economic good. This study aims to analyze agricultural water needs and the green water footprint in each region of Java Island. Calculate crop water requirements for the …
Repositioning North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato): The New Security Dilemma On Trans–Atlantic Relations Amid Shifting Global Geopolitics, Daniel C. George, Indra Alverdian
Repositioning North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato): The New Security Dilemma On Trans–Atlantic Relations Amid Shifting Global Geopolitics, Daniel C. George, Indra Alverdian
Journal of Strategic and Global Studies
The shifting global geopolitics have led to a new security dilemma in Europe, especially in trans–Atlantic relations. NATO as the vanguard of the trans–Atlantic defense pact is faced with transitional conditions of non-conventional threats that return to conventional threats. Due to the shift in the new global order, these threats require a repositioning for NATO to counter the new security dilemma amidst shifting global geopolitics. By referring to the three asserted pillars–the return of conventional warfare on the European continent; a more assertive Russia in the European continent under Vladimir Putin; and the geopolitical of China's rise impacted trans–-Atlantic …
Time And Retribution, Meghan J. Ryan
Time And Retribution, Meghan J. Ryan
Missouri Law Review
Time is missing from discussions on the theory of retribution. A colossal body of scholarship has been devoted to exploring the theory of retribution, or “just deserts,” but much less has attempted to translate this theory into practice, explaining how to determine an actual offender’s desert in real life. The limited scholarship on this topic touches on who might best assess an offender’s desert. For example, should a judge, a juror, or the public itself be making these desert decisions? But there is also a temporal aspect to this decision-making that has thus far largely eluded exploration: When should the …

Celebrating Achievements As Digital Rituals Among Indonesian Youth On Social Media, B.J. Sujibto, Malikatun Natiqoh, Kafhaya Nuzulanisa, Saras Wati Widodo
Masyarakat: Jurnal Sosiologi
Youth and social media are increasingly intertwined, as their socio-cultural trajectories accelerate digital connectedness and intensify the contestation of diverse identities. Posting on social media has thus become a ritualized practice. This article explores how Indonesian university students construct identities by sharing achievement stories and success narratives on Instagram. Using qualitative data, it examines the experiences of students who have excelled in academic competitions. The study identifies two key typologies behind such posts. Firstly, personal determinism, aimed at self- reward and self-branding. Secondly, social motivation, focused on inspiring peers and building supportive networks to achieve academic success. These typologies reflect …

Access, Community Capacity, And Socio-Economic Impacts On The Implementation Of Social Forestry Programs In The Perum Perhutani Kph Telawa Working Area, Esa Jati Manunggal Sukma Adhi, Trisni Utami
Masyarakat: Jurnal Sosiologi
Despite increasing interest in social forestry, limited research has explored the interplay between community capacity and access within Indonesia’s Social Forestry Utilization Permit (IPHPS) scheme. This study examines the relationship between community capacity, access, and socio-economic impacts to inform effective policy implementation. Employing a qualitative case study approach, it focuses on a community granted an IPHPS Decree within the Perum Perhutani Forest Management Unit (KPH) Telawa. The findings identify three key dimensions of community capacity: technical capacity (local knowledge and skills), networking capacity (social capital and relationships), and cultural capacity (local wisdom and practices). While legal access to forest permits …
Unlocking Local Economic Potential: Understanding The Role Of Place-Based Industrial Policy In Egypt, Nashwa Shaban
Unlocking Local Economic Potential: Understanding The Role Of Place-Based Industrial Policy In Egypt, Nashwa Shaban
Theses and Dissertations
Industrial Policy has regained prominence in both academic and practical spheres over the years, as the discourse largely shifted from an ideological debate to exploring ways for effective implementation. This renewed interest, coupled with growing concerns over regional inequality and persistent economic distress, has sparked a growing interest in Place-based Industrial Policies. Place-based Industrial Policy is an approach to industrial policy that focuses on both specific industries and locations through various policy Instruments. Similar to industrial policies, the outcomes of place-based policies have been mixed, nevertheless, evidence suggests that they often achieve the intended objectives especially in lagging and declining …
Esg Significance In Relation To Corporate Bankruptcy Prediction, Sama Elkady
Esg Significance In Relation To Corporate Bankruptcy Prediction, Sama Elkady
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis aims to enhance corporate risk assessment through studying ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) significance in modeling bankruptcy. Through using artificial intelligence’ natural language processing (NLP), we develop a proxy for ESG scoring based on companies annual reporting retrieved through EDGAR. We integrate the derived ESG score with traditional financial ratios used to calculate Altman’s Z-score (1968) in predicting bankruptcy. Through S&P’s Compustat, we obtain a sample of 108 healthy & bankrupt firms -spanning 14 years of fiscal observations- and match them through time and industry. We use stepwise GLM regression to estimate bankruptcy probability observing that ESG and …
Expectations Versus Reality In New Cairo's Gated Communities: An Interdisciplinary Analysis Of Socio-Spatial Features, Ala'a Marwan
Expectations Versus Reality In New Cairo's Gated Communities: An Interdisciplinary Analysis Of Socio-Spatial Features, Ala'a Marwan
Theses and Dissertations
This research aims to introduce a new framework to identify the disparities between gated community residents’ experiences and real estate developers' visions towards the development. As New Cairo experiences significant growth, many residents are increasingly relocating to gated communities. It has become crucial to assess users’ expectations before moving and their lived experience post-moving to allocate the gaps between their expectations and reality, otherwise, the GC developments will grow apart from users’ updated preferences. The research focuses on the socio-spatial qualities such as accessibility to services and facilities, community interaction, and vast green areas between buildings for privacy, all of …

Ameliorating Bankruptcy's Forum Shopping Crisis Through Abstention And Venue Transfer, Sarah Jones
Ameliorating Bankruptcy's Forum Shopping Crisis Through Abstention And Venue Transfer, Sarah Jones
Florida Law Review
In the wake of highly publicized and contentious corporate bankruptcies, scholars and policymakers are reevaluating the Bankruptcy Code’s flexible venue statute amid a forum shopping crisis. The current statute allows a corporate debtor to file bankruptcy in any state where it has an affiliate. Big corporations, anxious to choose favorable judges, create affiliates on the eve of bankruptcy to manufacture venue in a given court. Oftentimes, local court rules guarantee that a particular judge will preside. This strategic maneuvering has significant consequences for pending tort claims and other junior claimants who must appear in whatever venue the debtor selects. Some …

The Canyon Revisited-A Rephotography Of The Grand Canyon 1923/1991, By Donald L. Baars And Rex C. Buchanan, Allen Cichanski
The Geographical Bulletin
What an interesting and remarkable little book based on a very clever premiseto duplicate as closely as possible in 1991 the extensive photographic record of the 1923, Birdseye-USGS Expedition through the Grand Canyon. From the time of the first expedition through the Grand Canyon in 1868 by John Wesley Powell until 1923, only 29 explorers had endured the hardships of boat travel down the Colorado through the full length of the Canyon. A far greater number of climbers have reached the summit of Mt. Everest as of today! Are there many or even any places left on Earth today that …

A Geography Of Pennsylvania By E. Willard Miller, Editor., Reed F. Stewart
A Geography Of Pennsylvania By E. Willard Miller, Editor., Reed F. Stewart
The Geographical Bulletin
Pennsylvania is a fascinating place, or a collection offascinating places, and one can study its geographies and learn a great deal about the United States and, indeed, about the world. This large book gives one the opportunity to do just that and to learn a great deal about geographic thinking, analysis, reasoning, opinions, and conclusions. It is factual, systematic, in at least two senses of that term, and regional.
Rainfall Distribution Along Coastal Guyana, 1901-1980, Robert Ramraj
Rainfall Distribution Along Coastal Guyana, 1901-1980, Robert Ramraj
The Geographical Bulletin
Data over an 80-year period from Georgetown, Guyana were analyzed to determine rainfall patterns along the coastal plain. Data revealed that two distinct wet and two dry seasons occur annually and that a high probability exists that annual rainfall almost never surpasses nor lags behind that of the previous year for more than two consecutive years. Additionally, it is concluded that rainfall was heavier during 1941-1980 than during the previous 40 years, and that interannual and interdecadal variability existed during the study period . Apart from their practical application in planning and water resource management, studies of this nature can …

A Home For The Homeless? Residents' Perceptions Of The Armitage Homeless Camp., Cindy L. Mendoz
The Geographical Bulletin
Responding to a shortage in local shelter space and a preference for alternative forms of shelter, homeless people in Lane County, Oregon, took shelter unlawfully at the Armitage Homeless Camp (AHC). This paper examines the residents' sense of place, concepts of home, and perceptions of the camp in an attempt to gauge the meaning and value of AHC from the perspective of urban campers. Data were collected from November to May, 1993, through participant observation, interviews, and surveys in the forms of questionnaires, cognitive mapping, and selfdirected photography. The data suggest that the campers identified with the environment and community …
Integration Of Geographic Information Systems And Remote Sensing To A Geologic Analysis Of The Llano Uplift,Texas, Michael Clark
Integration Of Geographic Information Systems And Remote Sensing To A Geologic Analysis Of The Llano Uplift,Texas, Michael Clark
The Geographical Bulletin
Developments in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) have provided a practical and economical uses to a variety of disciplines. This paper focuses on the application of this technology to a geologic region using polygon analysis techniques. This application evaluates the feasibility of such methods as compared to conventional geologic field techniques. The Llano Uplift region of central Texas is well defined morphologically and geologically which provides good ground control for aerial photography. A GIS/RS-based analysis scheme is used to extract geologic information from morphological features resulting from surface and subsurface shaping agents. GIS polygon establishment and layer …
Urban Poverty And The Underclass Revisited: "Debates Within" The Underclass Debate., Eugene J. Palka
Urban Poverty And The Underclass Revisited: "Debates Within" The Underclass Debate., Eugene J. Palka
The Geographical Bulletin
Urban poverty and the "underclass" remain politically and emotionally charged topics among academicians and political analysts concerned with American urban affairs. Geographers, however, have not been central to the main debates. The latter trend is perplexing, given the spatially concentrated nature of the underclass problem. This paper provides a synthetic review of the urban underclass concept and a distillation of the underclass debate in order to describe the complex and multifaceted problems associated with the urban underclass, and to illuminate themes which may be of interest to geographers. Urban poverty is more concentrated today, and hence, more geographically distinct than …

Projections And Perceptions Editorial Comments: Geography And Other Disciplines, Gilbert F. White
The Geographical Bulletin
Being a geographer often carries with it the opportunities, pleasures and burdens of working with colleagues from other disciplines. Those opportunities may come in teaching a shared class, in pursuing an inter-departmental curriculum, in carrying out research, or in addressing an issue of public policy. I have shared in all those ways, beginning as a green young graduate student working with engineers, economists, and foresters in a cooperative study. Always I have enjoyed new ideas and methods. Sometimes I have helped other disciplines gain strength from geography. And occasionally it has been frustrating to see geographic ideas ignored. The latter …
The Zooarchaeological Assemblage From The French School On Yefet Street, Yafo (Jaffa) (Pp. 513–527), Nimrod Marom
The Zooarchaeological Assemblage From The French School On Yefet Street, Yafo (Jaffa) (Pp. 513–527), Nimrod Marom
'Atiqot
A small assemblage of 158 identified animal bones was retrieved from Crusader- and late Ottoman-period contexts at the French School. The bone samples from both periods consisted mainly of cattle and caprines, as well as some pig, donkey, horse and chicken bones. The relative frequency of pig bones in the Ottoman period might point to a religious tolerance toward the consumption of equid and wild boar. This may attest to a poverty-stricken Muslim population, or to the presence of immigrants from the Maghrebi Islam.
