The Impact Of Coral Degradation On Coastal Communities In Southeast Asia, Paige Smith Jan 2025

The Impact Of Coral Degradation On Coastal Communities In Southeast Asia, Paige Smith

Ballard Brief

Coral reefs across the globe are in decline, but reefs in Southeast Asia are among some of the most threatened in the world. Climate change, triggered by fossil fuel emissions, raises sea water temperatures and lowers the ocean’s pH, contributing to coral bleaching and inhibiting coral growth. Local threats also particularly affect reefs in Southeast Asia, such as destructive fishing techniques and marine and inland sources of pollution. Coastal communities in Southeast Asia are especially vulnerable to the degradation of coral reefs due to economic reliance on these reefs and their proximity to them. Declining coral reefs can damage the …


Lack Of Integration Between Western Medicine And Complementary And Alternative Medicine (Cam) For Treating Adults In America, Kaylee Burrill Jan 2025

Lack Of Integration Between Western Medicine And Complementary And Alternative Medicine (Cam) For Treating Adults In America, Kaylee Burrill

Ballard Brief

There is a lack of integration between Western Medicine and Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) for treating adults in America. Communication barriers, differing approaches to healthcare, and skepticism coupled with a lack of education prevent integration. As a result, patients suffer financial burdens, are unsatisfied with incomplete and insufficient care, and the US healthcare system becomes more fragmented. Integrative medicine provides a holistic, patient centered, evidence-based solution by combining the safest and most effective practices of Western medicine and CAM in a coordinated way.

Child Malnutrition In Argentina, Brooklyn Richins Jan 2025

Child Malnutrition In Argentina, Brooklyn Richins

Ballard Brief

Children in Argentina are experiencing an increase in child malnutrition rates. These children are at a higher risk for such conditions due to the lower levels of income and education, as well as the harsh climate and geographic isolation, resulting in a greater reliance on highly-processed imported foods. Malnutrition in childhood results in negative health outcomes throughout one’s life, as well as lower academic achievement. Additionally, this increases the likelihood of their children experiencing malnutrition, thus continuing the cycle. Currently, efforts to mitigate child malnutrition are focused on providing mothers with education on nutrition, supplying children with supplements, and connecting …


Inadequate Healthcare In Pacific Islands, Brook Vaitohi Jan 2025

Inadequate Healthcare In Pacific Islands, Brook Vaitohi

Ballard Brief

The high prevalence of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), vulnerability to communicable diseases, and limited access to healthcare in rural areas pressure healthcare systems in Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs). Due to healthcare worker shortages, resource deficits, and economic constraints, the quality of PICT healthcare systems is considered insufficient concerning key criteria for adequate healthcare, namely effectiveness, accessibility, and safety. This inadequacy leads to both higher mortality and morbidity, contributing to preventable deaths, delayed diagnoses, ineffective treatments, and poor management of disease for Pacific Islanders. While PICTs have recognized the inadequacy of their healthcare systems, treatment gaps persist and prevent progress.

Integration Of Agile Approach Into The Implementation Of The Iso/Sae 21434 On Top Of The V-Model To Enable Continuous Secure-By-Design Automotive Cybersecurity Development, Pooja Patil

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

The rapid evolution of technology is revolutionizing the automotive industry, with connected and autonomous vehicles at the forefront. These vehicles rely on complex digital ecosystems to enhance safety and efficiency but are increasingly vulnerable to cybersecurity threats. Addressing these challenges requires following robust development methodologies, while complying with cybersecurity standards. This study introduces a framework that merges the widely used agile methodology practices with the ISO/SAE 21434 standard to support secure-by-design automotive product development. Traditional development approaches like the V-model provide structured and linear project phases, but they often lack the flexibility and the ability to adapt to evolving security …

Exploring The Lived Experiences Of People With Adverse Childhood Experiences Who Have Graduated From College And Broken The Cycle Of Generational Poverty, Darlene Denmark-Brown

All Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) as defined by Drs. Felitti and Anda are prevalent in the general population of the United States. These childhood traumas have a profound and lasting impact on emotional, psychological, and social development, often disrupting academic trajectories and life outcomes. This qualitative phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of six college graduates in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota, who endured high levels of ACEs yet succeeded in overcoming adversity to achieve academic and personal success. Guided by Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory and resilience theory (Garmezy & Streitman, 1974), semi-structured interviews were conducted to examine the effects of …

The Use Of Platelet-Rich Fibrin In Maintaining Vascularity For Intentionally Replanted Teeth: A Randomized Clinical Trial, Elizabeth L. Easley-Perez, Joseph B. Bavitz, Lynette M. Smith, Peter J. Giannini Jan 2025

The Use Of Platelet-Rich Fibrin In Maintaining Vascularity For Intentionally Replanted Teeth: A Randomized Clinical Trial, Elizabeth L. Easley-Perez, Joseph B. Bavitz, Lynette M. Smith, Peter J. Giannini

Journal Articles: College of Dentistry

Background: A primary goal for a mature tooth autotransplant is preserving tooth vitality. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has characteristics that may improve the success of autotransplanted mature teeth by decreasing harmful inflammation and boosting vascular growth. This prospective human trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of PRF on vitality in a mature tooth replantation model. Methods: This double-blind, randomized controlled trial included 18 participants with 70 single-rooted vital teeth planned for prosthetic extraction. Experimental teeth were extracted and apicoectomized to increase vascular growth. PRF was condensed into the canals before teeth were replanted in their respective sockets. In the same patient, …

Which Of The Environmental Aspects Affecting The Gut Microbiome Of The Neonate Has The Largest Lifelong Impact?, Roza Heershzon Jan 2025

Which Of The Environmental Aspects Affecting The Gut Microbiome Of The Neonate Has The Largest Lifelong Impact?, Roza Heershzon

The Science Journal of the Lander College of Arts and Sciences

The development of new DNA sequencing techniques has led to new discoveries on the gut microbiome’s critical influence on metabolic processes and immune development. Therefore, understanding the most influential factors in the development of the gut microbiome during early infancy, which impacts the individual’s long-term health, is vital. This paper explores how environmental factors, including delivery method and nutrition, shape the gut microbiome’s devel- opment in early life. In addition, it discusses their long-term health implications. The paper highlights how the mode of delivery significantly affects initial microbial colonization. Vaginal births promote a microbial community that is rich in beneficial …

Impact Of Physical Intimate Partner Violence Victimization On Jamaican Women’S Mental Health: The Moderating Effects Of Adverse Childhood Experiences, Kerry A. Lee, Sharon Rose Priestley, Kevin K. Hylton

Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research Faculty Research and Scholarship

Purpose: Few studies have examined the relationship between IPV victimization and mental health outcomes and the moderating role of ACEs in this relationship among Jamaican women. Using trauma theory to undergird this study, we examined the relationship between physical IPV victimization and depressive symptoms and anxiety while accounting for the moderating effects of ACEs on these relationships among Jamaican women.

Methods: Univariate and ordinary least squares regression (OLS) analyses were performed using data from the 2016 National Women’s Health Survey, a nationally representative sample of Jamaican women aged 15 to 64.

Results: Experience of physical IPV victimization was found …

Evaluating Distractions Of Undergraduate Students During Guided And Unguided Study Sessions, Roni Peleg

Masters Theses

In this study, we explore an intervention strategy aimed at decreasing distractions while studying. The participant was a third-year undergraduate psychology student with a concentration in neuroscience who did not have a personal structured study system. The researcher measured the percent of intervals in which a distraction occurred using interval recording during baseline and intervention phases. During the intervention phase, the participant was introduced to the productivity method referred to as the Pomodoro Ⓡ Technique. Using a reversal design, data were analyzed based on levels of distraction during baseline and intervention phases. The goal of this study was to evaluate …
