Hybrid Cnn–Gru-Based Demand–Supply Forecasting To Enhance Sustainability In Renewable-Integrated Smart Grids, Süleyman Emre Eyimaya, Necmi Altin

Faculty Publications

The rapid integration of renewable energy sources in smart grids has introduced significant uncertainty in both power generation and consumption patterns, posing challenges to environmental, economic, and operational sustainability. Accurate short-term forecasting of energy demand and supply is essential for achieving optimal scheduling, grid stability, and resilient operation in renewable-integrated power systems. This study proposes a hybrid deep learning framework combining Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) for intelligent joint demand–supply forecasting in smart grids. The model was developed and implemented in MATLAB using real-world datasets comprising electricity consumption, photovoltaic (PV) generation, temperature, and irradiance variables. Comparative …

An Innovative Program: R3 Renewal, Resilience And Retention For Nursing Practice Starts In Nursing Education, Cynda Hylton Rushton, Vickie Hughes, Krysia Warren Hudson, Sandra Swoboda, Erin Wright, Nancy Reller, Ginger Hanson, Rita F. D'Aoust

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Burnout due to workload and work-life imbalance is reducing nursing capacity in Maryland and nationally. Faculty and staff burnout rate is 40% and new graduate nurse turnover rate is 19%. The R³: Renewal, Resilience and Retention Initiative (R³) is an educational initiative to build nurses' resilience and increase their well-being that will help sustain the workforce and bridge the gap between education and practice. Many sound initiatives have addressed this shortage which primarily focus on pipeline entry by increasing (a) enrollment in nursing programs and (b) the number of nursing faculty. Fewer initiatives have targeted …

Depression Due To Combined Dexamethasone And Cyproheptadine Abuse For Weight Gain, Sanjana Sateesh, Jatin Kumar, Dhananjay Ardawatia, Kishor M, Shashidhara Kc, Srikanth Ms

Digital Journal of Clinical Medicine

Cyproheptadine, an H1 antihistamine, and Dexamethasone, a long-acting steroid, are often misused in combination for addressing self-perceived body image issues and have become a popular but dangerous ‘weight gain cocktail’, often available over the counter without any prescription. This case describes a 25-year-old man who had self-prescribed the above-mentioned drugs in combination to address his self-perceived lean physique. This resulted in a significant weight gain, followed by an abnormal increase in appetite, which affected his daily life. Upon cessation, it resulted in rebound weight changes, depressive features, along with features of corticosteroid withdrawal, which required multidisciplinary management.

This case highlights …

Nursing Practice In Cancer Treatment Decision Making Among Older Adults: A Scoping Review On Behalf Of The International Society Of Geriatric Oncology Nursing, Allied Health, And Scientists Interest Group, Fay J. Strohschein, Hanneke Van Der Wal-Huisman, K. Alix Hayden, Kristen R. Haase, Michelle Hannan, Cindy Kenis, Juan Li, Nikita Nikita, Sophie Pilleron, Tracy Ruegg, Heike Schmidt, Anke Steckelberg, Cassandra Vonnes, Martine Puts

Department of Medical Oncology Faculty Papers

INTRODUCTION: Cancer treatment decision making (CTDM) presents important challenges among older adults due to variation in health and functional status, presence of comorbidities, differing goals/values, quality and quantity of life considerations, and limited inclusion in clinical trials. Nursing standards and guidelines call for competence in supporting CTDM and nurses advocate for greater involvement. However, clear understanding of the existing evidence to inform nursing practice is lacking. We aimed to map and synthesize evidence that provides insight into nursing practice in CTDM among older adults, with attention to nursing roles, required skills and competencies, potential barriers and facilitators, and outcomes studied. …

The Development Of Ace-Iii Performance Validity Tests For Dementia Screening, Donnchadh Murphy, Rupert Noad

Peninsula Medical School

Objective: Performance validity tests (PVTs) are an essential component of a neuropsychological evaluation. There is a lack of brief validated PVTs for use alongside cognitive screening assessments for dementia. The current study sought to develop and evaluate a series of brief PVTs, which could be embedded into the Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination (ACE-III) and used in a dementia clinic. Method: This study used a diagnostic accuracy design to compare the performance of 31 individuals with Alzheimer’s disease dementia and 26 healthy older adults who simulated having Alzheimer’s disease. Participants were asked to complete ACE-III, the Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM), and …

Leveraging Csr To Buffer Brand Challenges During Crises: A Saudi Arabian Perspective, Nouf Alrayes, Abdullah Alhidari

Journal of Marketing and Consumer Behaviour in Emerging Markets

Crises, such as economic downturns or global health pandemics, pose significant business challenges. Engaging in CSR initiatives that contribute to societal well-being can help mitigate the negative consequences of crises, reinforce customer gratitude, and minimize corporate hypocrisy. CSR is critical in shaping a company’s accountability and ethical responsibilities. Consequently, there is an opportunity for the firm to see the role of CSR and how it affects customers’ responses and attitudes during any difficult situation. Drawing upon attribution theory and the customer gratitude reciprocity cycle, a conceptual framework was developed to test the impact of CSR on the variables: corporate hypocrisy, …

Rooted Wisdom Ecofeminist Tarot, Daniella Orias

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

This dissertation explores the potential of applying tarot as a pedagogical tool in connection with ecofeminist theories in order to assess if tarot can be a meaningful pedagogical modality to improve learner comprehension. The dissertation is guided by six research questions, explored in the introduction section, in order to examine how tarot embodies ecofeminist critiques of dualistic Western thought. In Chapter 1, the dissertation begins by providing a foundational understanding of ecofeminism, tarot, and pedagogy in order to provide key background information and assess the current conversations around ecofeminism, queer and nature-based tarot decks, and the basis of critical pedagogy. …

Surface Morphometrics Reveals Local Membrane Thickness Variation In Organellar Subcompartments, Michaela Medina, Ya-Ting Chang, Hamidreza Rahmani, Mark Frank, Zidan Khan, Daniel Fuentes, Frederick A Heberle, M Neal Waxham, Benjamin A Barad, Danielle A Grotjahn

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Lipid bilayers form the basis of organellar architecture, structure, and compartmentalization in the cell. Decades of biophysical, biochemical, and imaging studies on purified or in vitro-reconstituted liposomes have shown that variations in lipid composition influence the physical properties of membranes, such as thickness and curvature. However, similar studies characterizing these membrane properties within the native cellular context have remained technically challenging. Recent advancements in cellular cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) imaging enable high-resolution, three-dimensional views of native organellar membrane architecture preserved in near-native conditions. We previously developed a "Surface Morphometrics" pipeline that generates surface mesh reconstructions to model and quantify cellular membrane …

Bot-Theology: Inviting, Prosperous, And (In)Authentic Community, Daniel Jesse

University Faculty Publications and Creative Works

The paper analyzes the theology, emotions, and community formation of the bots who post on YouTube and the people who respond to them. The paper finds that the bots’ theology is evangelical, charismatic, and prosperity-oriented. The paper also finds that the people who respond to the bots are sincere, supportive, and expressive, and that they create a virtual community of faith that is joyful, hopeful, and trusting. The paper suggests that virtual gatherings of Christians need more scholarly attention and that more research is needed on the emotional formation and theological implications of these online interactions.

Comparison Of Integrated 3d Electroanatomic Mapping And Conventional Mapping Systems For Pentaspline Pulsed Field Ablation Of Atrial Fibrillation., Auroa Badin, Andrea K Robinson, Allyson Farrah, Saanvi Billakanty, David M Nemer, Ankur N Shah, Jaret D Tyler, Eugene Y Fu, Nagesh Chopra, Anish K Amin

Heart and Vascular Articles

INTRODUCTION: Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is an established therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF), yet optimal mapping strategies during pentaspline PFA remain uncertain. We compared procedural characteristics and material costs of an integrated 3D electroanatomic mapping (EAM) platform with conventional mapping systems.

METHODS AND RESULTS: In a multicenter observational study of 448 consecutive AF ablations done using pentaspline catheter (62 integrated mapping; 386 conventional mapping) performed between February 2024 and August 2025, baseline characteristics were similar between groups. Compared with conventional mapping, the integrated platform was associated with shorter total procedure time (49 ± 16 vs. 66 ± 26 min, p …

All Decisions

In this nonpayment proceeding involving a rent-stabilized apartment, court grants landlord's motion to reargue and adheres to its prior decision ordering discovery. Though landlord's motion was filed more than 30 days after service of the notice of entry, court exercises discretion to hear it, finding no prejudice to tenant. On the merits, court upholds its prior discovery order requiring landlord to produce rent registration history, citing unexplained increases — including a jump from $559.07 to $1,300 attributed only to a vacancy lease — and a longevity increase lacking documentation.

From Behind The Screen: Evaluating Teachers' Perceptions Of Online Professional Learning, Kathryn A. Rutledge

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In recent years, online teacher professional learning has become a common format. However, in the large rural school district in central Florida where I work, the rising enrollment in online professional learning contrasted with declining completion rates among participants. My qualitative research study sought to explain why teachers’ perceptions of effective professional learning differ and why some teachers who enroll in asynchronous online professional learning courses fail to complete them. Using narrative inquiry, I collected data through qualitative questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with six teachers representing varied educational backgrounds. Analysis of the six participants’ interviews revealed five central themes: challenges …

The Modern History Of The Basel Problem, John Campbell, Paul Levrie

Euleriana

The \emph{Basel problem} refers to the problem of determining a closed form for the infinite series $\frac{1}{1^2} + \frac{1}{2^2} + \cdots$. If we consider what mathematical results have the most peer-reviewed papers devoted to new ways of proving such results, Euler's formula $\frac{1}{1^2} + \frac{1}{2^2} + \cdots = \frac{\pi^2}{6}$ is certainly among the top of such results. This motivates our historical study of peer-reviewed papers based on proofs of Euler's formula, and we introduce what appears to be the most comprehensive and up-to-date and exhaustive catalogue of peer-reviewed, published papers in the 20th and 21st centuries devoted to or mainly …
