Can Amniotic Fluid Protect Developing Fetal Lungs Against The Harmful Effects Of Oxidative Stress?, Levent Korkmaz, Cumali̇ Alan, İsmai̇l Topal, Mahi̇r Tayfur, Ali̇seydi̇ Bozkurt, Cebrai̇l Gürsul, Osman Baştuğ

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Background/aim: Preterm births cause fetuses to be born without completing the development of their organs. Due to this undesirable situation, it is the pulmonary tissue which has to be most exposed to harmful effects of extrauterine environment. Early disappearance of the prophylactic and constructive effects of amniotic fluid (AF) on developing tissues, such as pulmonary tissue, facilitates the formation of pulmonary morbidities resulting from oxygen. Setting out from this knowledge, we wanted, in addition to assessing the beneficent effects of AF on pulmonary tissue, to study the importance of AF in morbidities of this tissue thought to originate from oxygen. …

Developing A Shared Ecclesial Identity Utilizing Story-Based Elements With First Baptist Church, Gainesville, Georgia, Jeremy T. Shoulta Jan 2023

Developing A Shared Ecclesial Identity Utilizing Story-Based Elements With First Baptist Church, Gainesville, Georgia, Jeremy T. Shoulta

Doctor of Ministry Projects

The Body of Christ is challenged to, “be like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind” (Philippians 2:2). How then could a congregation, comprised of individuals harboring diverse cultural worldviews, discover and live into this reality? Through various individual and group exercises, participants sought to determine whether story elements have the power to serve as a true sense-making device within an ecclesial setting. The results indicate that that a majority of participants found the story-based framework beneficial in regards to their personal understanding of the work of First Baptist Church.

Learning To Cope With Grief Through The Use Of Biblical Creativity With The Community Of First Saints Community Church, Patricia Watson Jan 2023

Learning To Cope With Grief Through The Use Of Biblical Creativity With The Community Of First Saints Community Church, Patricia Watson

Doctor of Ministry Projects

Supporting those who are grieving has long been a complicated process for church communities and pastors. This project investigated whether introducing a creative activity to a grief support group could help participants view their loss through a lens of faith and clinical aspects of grief. Although further studies will strengthen this hypothesis, a four-week curriculum was conducted with five participants at First Saints Community Church in Leonardtown, MD. Results from quantitative and qualitative analyses showed that there was a benefit to those participants.

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

With the ease of gene sequencing and the technology available to study and manipulate non-model organisms, the extension of the methodological toolbox required to translate our understanding of model organisms to non-model organisms has become an urgent problem. For example, mining of large coral and their symbiont sequence data is a challenge, but also provides an opportunity for understanding functionality and evolution of these and other non-model organisms. Much more information than for any other eukaryotic species is available for humans, especially related to signal transduction and diseases. However, the coral cnidarian host and human have diverged over 700 million …

Entre El Cielo Y El Inframundo: Los Seres Alados De Los Mayas, Rubén B. Morante López Jan 2023

Entre El Cielo Y El Inframundo: Los Seres Alados De Los Mayas, Rubén B. Morante López

Segundo congreso internacional de iconografía precolombina. Barcelona, 2023. Actas.

En nuestras investigaciones realizadas en Chichén Itzá encontramos edificios decorados con relieves y esculturas en bulto donde se plasmaron personajes ataviados como aves o que aparentan estar suspendidos en el aire. Los vimos también en sitios cercanos de península de Yucatán, como Ek Balam y Tulum. El sentido que tenían estas esculturas, al parecer, estuvo vinculado a leyendas cósmicas donde hombres, animales y plantas transitaban entre los tres planos del universo: el firmamento, la tierra y el inframundo. Hablamos sobre todo de edificios del periodo temprano de ocupación de Chichén Itzá (800 a 1000 d.C.) ubicados en los sectores conocidos …

Iconography Of Sky Bands, Earth Bands, Skull & Crossed-Bones Bands In Classic Maya Art, Nicholas Hellmuth

Segundo congreso internacional de iconografía precolombina. Barcelona, 2023. Actas.

This presentation introduces Maya motifs that tend to be in horizontal bands. The most common horizontal band is the Sky Band. The other common horizontal band is the Surface of the Underwaterworld, associated with Xibalba, below the surface. There is also an Earth Band, made of Caban symbols—rare but present at Palenque. The Witz is usually a “stone mountain” and rarely a band, but deserves to be included and studied. Another set of bands was of skulls and crossed bones; there is an endless band of these at Uxmal and nearby Puuc site of Nohpat. There are other bands that …

Enhanced Central Sympathetic Tone Induces Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (Hfpef) In Rats, Shyam S. Nandi, Kenichi Katsurada, Michael J. Moulton, Hong Zheng, Kaushik K. Patel Jan 2023

Enhanced Central Sympathetic Tone Induces Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (Hfpef) In Rats, Shyam S. Nandi, Kenichi Katsurada, Michael J. Moulton, Hong Zheng, Kaushik K. Patel

Journal Articles: Cellular & Integrative Physiology

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogenous clinical syndrome characterized by diastolic dysfunction, concentric cardiac left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, and myocardial fibrosis with preserved systolic function. However, the underlying mechanisms of HFpEF are not clear. We hypothesize that an enhanced central sympathetic drive is sufficient to induce LV dysfunction and HFpEF in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to central infusion of either saline controls (saline) or angiotensin II (Ang II, 20 ng/min, i.c.v) via osmotic mini-pumps for 14 days to elicit enhanced sympathetic drive. Echocardiography and invasive cardiac catheterization were used to measure systolic and diastolic …

Born-Again Engineering: Evaluating Human Impact On Ecosystems, Ben D. Giudice Jan 2023

Born-Again Engineering: Evaluating Human Impact On Ecosystems, Ben D. Giudice

Faculty Publications - Biomedical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering

The quest stood upon the edge of a fillet knife. My feet cried out concerning my madness and folly—ten miles of hiking, one wader leg filled with Cowhee Creek, used boots overly snug, blisters inevitable. I had probed and prodded every bit of frog water I could find on this beautiful Alaskan creek. No sign of silver salmon. It began in February as an idle comment over church coffee in the fellowship hall in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. “I’m turning forty this fall,” I said to my friend Chris. He wore his characteristic Sunday wool vest, his bald head gleaming in …

Table Talk: Short Talks On The Weightier Matters Of Law And Religion, John Witte Jr.

Center for the Study of Law and Religion Books

“Table talks” have long been a familiar genre of writing for jurists, theologians, politi­cians, and novelists. In this little volume, thirty sage reflections on how to thrive in law school and in the legal profession are offered: short commentaries on controversial matters of faith, freedom, and family; pithy sermons on difficult biblical texts about law and justice; and touching tributes to a few of his fallen heroes. Most of the thirty texts gathered here were made at seminar tables, academic roundtables, editorial tables, and Eucharist tables. Cast in avuncular form, these texts probe what makes life worth living, work worth …

The purpose of this story is to encourage children to turn to reading as a form of escapism. So many children have no one to turn to, some are made to feel ostracized by their family, to feel insignificant for being different. The author’s purpose in writing this story is to give those children a way to free themselves from that narrative. This piece of Realistic Fiction is written for anyone who needs to be reminded of what it’s like to be a child and have little power over what happens around you. A teacher may use this story in …

Time Is A Flat Circle: Lessons From Past And Present Conspiracy Theories, Lucille A. Jewel Jan 2023

Time Is A Flat Circle: Lessons From Past And Present Conspiracy Theories, Lucille A. Jewel

Scholarly Works

This essay analyzes how conspiracy theories were viewed in the 1990s, particularly in the context of the then-existing debate over racial differences in perception, and how they are dealt with today, where prevalent conspiracy theory adherents are White and conservative (QAnon, Pizzagate, and widespread voter fraud) in the 2020 election). In the 1990s, conflict over conspiracy theories was part of a larger culture war involving critical race theory, conspiracy thinking, truth, reason, and post-modern theory. These cultural flashpoints are obviously still with us today. But now, high-profile persons holding false, unreasonable beliefs often hail from the right and are assailed …
