Insights Into Low-Cost Pm Sensors Using Size-Resolved Scattering Intensity Of Cooking Aerosols In A Test House, Alok Kumar Thakur, Jonathan D. Gingrich, Marina E. Vance, Sameer Patel

Faculty Work Comprehensive List

Spatio-temporal particulate matter (PM) measurements are critical to understanding emission profiles to develop effective mitigation strategies. However, high-resolution spatio-temporal measurements using research-grade instruments are cost-prohibitive, making low-cost sensors (LCS) a promising alternative. LCS measures particle light scattering intensity (Isc) and converts it to mass and number concentrations. Such measurements are influenced by particles’ physico-optical properties, which make LCS appropriate for measuring PM with similar properties to those used for calibration. This work evaluates the performance of an LCS (PurpleAir) against reference instruments (SMPS þ APS) during cooking experiments per-formed in a test house where PM0.3/PM10 as high as 90% was …

Decorin Suppresses Tumor Lymphangiogenesis: A Mechanism To Curtail Cancer Progression, Dipon K. Mondal, Christopher Xie, Gabriel J. Pascal, Simone Buraschi, Renato V. Iozzo

Kimmel Cancer Center Faculty Papers

The complex interplay between malignant cells and the cellular and molecular components of the tumor stroma is a key aspect of cancer growth and development. These tumor-host interactions are often affected by soluble bioactive molecules such as proteoglycans. Decorin, an archetypical small leucine-rich proteoglycan primarily expressed by stromal cells, affects cancer growth in its soluble form by interacting with several receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). Overall, decorin leads to a context-dependent and protracted cessation of oncogenic RTK activity by attenuating their ability to drive a prosurvival program and to sustain a proangiogenic network. Through an unbiased transcriptomic analysis using deep RNAseq, …

Visualising Daylight For Designing Optimum Openings In Tropical Context, Dany Perwita Sari

ARSNET

With the rising concern for global warming, reducing electricity consumption and promoting daylight utilisation for healthier living conditions are among residential buildings' top priorities. The utilisation of natural light for indoor lighting, particularly in tropical countries like Indonesia, provides health benefits and improves psychological well-being. However, the current condition shows that artificial lighting still accounts for the majority of energy consumption in residential buildings and, arguably, the failure to maximise daylighting was largely due to a limited understanding of the design of openings. This paper aims to exemplify how virtualisation can assist designers through simulation tools to better predict and …

Reply To: On The Statistical Foundation Of A Recent Single Molecule Fret Benchmark, Dorothy A. Erie, Lydia Kisley, Dushani Dunukara

Faculty Scholarship

In their ‘Matters Arising’ manuscript, Saurabh et al. discuss two issues related to single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) experiments: the use of the Gaussian noise approximation and spectral crosstalk. Their arguments are based on simulations obtained with parameters that differ significantly from the typical conditions measured experimentally, and, thus, from the regime included in the original study (Götz et al.1). In addition, they make claims about our multi-lab blind study that we would like to rectify. In Table 1, we provide a list of specific statements made by Saurabh et al. with our respective explanations.

Cognitive dysfunction, a significant complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), can potentially manifest even from the early stages of the disease. Despite evidence of global brain atrophy and related cognitive dysfunction in early-stage T2DM patients, specific regions vulnerable to these changes have not yet been identified. The study enrolled patients with T2DM of less than five years’ duration and without chronic complications (T2DM group, n=100) and demographically similar healthy controls (control group, n=50). High-resolution T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging data were subjected to independent component analysis to identify structurally significant components indicative of morphometric networks. Within these networks, the groups’ …

Evaluating Behavioral Skills Training To Improve Data Collection Procedures In Paraprofessionals, Megan Weber

Theses

When working with individuals with a variety of abilities and disabilities, data collection becomes arguably the most important tool in ensuring student success and growth. To put trust in collected data, both data reliability and treatment integrity must be considered. When one individual is taking all data required for a specific individual, reliability and integrity can be simpler to ensure (Vollmer et al., 2008). However, in many special education classrooms across the country, paraprofessionals are asked to perform many of the same data collection tasks as certified educators; a role which, as in many of the roles they serve within …

Sediment Characteristics And Hydrocarbon Composition Of Makukwa Seep In Southern Tanzania: Potential Implications For Subterranean Hydrocarbon Accumulation, Makungu M. Madirisha

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Exploring the interplay between natural seeps and nearby sediment and hydrocarbon properties is key to unlocking subsurface hydrocarbon potential. This study presents findings on the hydrocarbon composition and sediment characteristics of the Makukwa seep in southern Tanzania, providing insight into subterranean hydrocarbon accumulation. Sediment analysis across areas A and B, located approximately 20 m apart, showed a decrease in porosity with depth, indicative of typical sandstone formations. Area A, near the seeps, exhibited porosity ranging from 23% to 36%, whereas Area B, further away, showed porosity ranging from 22% to 38%. This suggests that a lower cretaceous sandstone layer may …

The landlord, a foreign entity, initiated a holdover proceeding to recover possession of the premises. However, the tenant successfully moved to dismiss the case, arguing that the landlord lacked standing due to its failure to obtain the necessary Certificate of Authority from the Department of State to conduct business in New York State. Despite the landlord's claim of curing the defect, the court ruled in favor of the tenant, emphasizing compliance with statutory requirements for maintaining legal actions in the state.

Conscientious Objection: Understanding When And Why Primary Care Physicians Object To Providing Health Care To Transgender And Gender-Diverse Patients In An Appalachian Medical Center, Mili S. Patel, Kelley A. Jones, Laura Davisson, Elizabeth Miller, Nicole Kahn, Pamela J. Murray, Kacie M. Kidd

Journal of Appalachian Health

Introduction: Transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) individuals face barriers to accessing primary and gender-affirming care, especially in rural regions where a national shortage of medical providers with skills in caring for TGD people is further magnified. This care may also be impacted by individual providers’ strongly held personal or faith beliefs and associated conscientious objection to care.

Purpose: This study assesses the prevalence of conscientious objection to providing care and gender-affirming hormone (GAH) therapy to TGD individuals among physicians in an Appalachian academic medical center.

Methods: An anonymous, online, cross-sectional survey of physicians was distributed to resident and faculty physicians in …
