The Worker Voice Gap: How Much Say Do Workers Want—And How Much Do They Actually Experience?, Alexander Hertel-Fernandez, Thomas A. Kochan

Upjohn Institute Policy Papers

•The worker voice gap—the difference between the influence that workers want and what they experience—is very large. Nearly three-quarters of American workers want more voice at work than they currently have in three key areas: 1) compensation, 2) working conditions, and3) use of new technologies at work.

• The voice deficit is largest for compensation, but majorities of workers also express voice gaps over working conditions and the use of new technologies in their workplaces.

•Although voice gaps are relatively widespread, women tend to report larger voice gaps than men, and younger and middle-aged workers tend to report larger gaps …

Patterns Of Care And Clinical Outcomes In Systemic Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma: The Leo-Mer Prospective Cohort Study, Jia Ruan, Neha Mehta-Shah, Brad Kahl, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Few prospective benchmark studies exist to characterize the evolving contemporary real-world practice for peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). We report the patterns of first-line care and outcomes for 720 patients with systemic PTCL enrolled in 2 related prospective cohort studies, Lymphoma Epidemiology of Outcomes (LEO) from 2015 to 2020 and Molecular Epidemiology Resource (MER) from 2002 to 2015, both followed to 2024. The primary end points were event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) using Kaplan-Meier estimator and Cox regression model. Secondary end points included correlations of clinical and treatment factors with survival. The most common induction regimens were CHOP (cyclophosphamide, …

Efficacy And Safety Of Avapritinib In Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis: 4-Year Follow-Up Of The Pathfinder Study, Jason Gotlib, Stephen T Oh, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Advanced systemic mastocytosis (AdvSM), a clonal hematologic neoplasm driven predominantly by D816V-mutant KIT, is often characterized by organ damage. Associated hematologic neoplasms (AHNs; usually myeloid) are often present, leading to poor survival. We report on the oral, highly selective, potent KIT D816V inhibitor avapritinib (200 mg once daily, starting dose) with >4 years follow-up from the fully enrolled PATHFINDER study. End points included overall response rate (ORR; primary), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), changes in objective biomarkers of disease, and safety (all secondary). Of 107 patients with AdvSM (including 71 [66%] with SM-AHN; overall population …

Isg15 Negatively Regulates Ripk3-Mediated Cell Death And Viral Pathogenesis, Yi-Chieh Perng, Jessica M C Warsaw, Sachendra S Bais, Bradley E Hiller, Marissa C Locke, David J Morales-Heil, Chaoqun Li, Alissa R Young, Kristen J Monte, Robert E Schmidt, Douglas R Green, Yi-Nan Gong, Deborah J Lenschow

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Necroptosis, a form of programmed, inflammatory necrosis, plays an important role in viral-host defense and inflammation. The receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/mixed lineage kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL) pathway mediates necroptosis. Yet, the mechanisms that control necroptosis to limit immunopathology are poorly understood. Here, we report that interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) negatively regulates RIPK3-mediated cell death, including necroptosis, and limits immunopathology during chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection. ISG15-deficient mice infected with CHIKV display increased levels of necroptosis, resulting in elevated proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine production, leading to increased lethality. This dysregulated host response is fully prevented when MLKL or RIPK3 is ablated …

Ai-Infused Writing-Intensive Problems For Introduction To Programming In C++, Esma Yildirim

Open Educational Resources

This exercise book uses Writing-Intensive (WI) pedagogy in an introductory programming course setting, because I believe WI can help students engage in deeper analysis of programming problems while strengthening their critical and analytical thinking skills. In computer science, a single problem can often be solved using multiple algorithms, designs, and implementation strategies. Exploratory thinking and reflective writing can improve students’ ability not only to read and write computer programs, but also to evaluate the efficiency, readability, and maintainability of algorithms and code. Students must learn not only how to design solutions, but also how to compare alternatives and determine the …

Migrainous Thoracalgia In A Patient With Chronic Migraine And Coronary Vasospasm: A Case Report, Dean Zeldich, Victor S. Wang, Cyril David, Clinton Lauritsen, Claire E.J. Ceriani

Department of Neurology Faculty Papers

Migrainous thoracalgia (MT) refers to chest pain (CP) potentially arising from a neurologic etiology, often temporally linked to migraine. We present a 57-year-old woman with chronic migraine who developed recurrent CP typically following migraine attacks. Despite multiple cardiac evaluations, including cardiac MRI and catheterizations, she was diagnosed with fibromuscular dysplasia, spontaneous coronary artery dissection, and coronary microvascular disease. Her CP partially responded to nitroglycerin and improved modestly with migraine control using ubrogepant and calcium channel blockers. During admission for refractory migraine, she received intravenous lidocaine, magnesium, ketorolac, and neuroleptics, resulting in several months of CP remission despite brief migraine relief. …

Acidic Extracellular Ph-Induced Pth Secretion In Male Mouse Parathyroids Is Ogr1-Dependent, Yanmei Yang, Mengcun Chen, Mingshu Cui, Elisabeth Lashbrooks, Bin Wang

Center for Translational Medicine Faculty Papers

The role of extracellular acidity in regulating PTH secretion in cultured mouse parathyroid glands (PTGs) has not been studied to date, largely because of the technical difficulty of isolating mouse PTGs. We hypothesized that acidic extracellular pH directly stimulates PTH secretion through activation of a proton-sensing receptor, specifically ovarian cancer G protein-coupled receptor 1 (OGR1, also known as GPR68). To test this, we developed a method to reliably identify and isolate PTGs from male mice by administering 5-aminolevulinic acid, which induced selective fluorescence in these glands. Using this model, we demonstrate that acidic extracellular pH significantly stimulates PTH secretion in …

Internalized Homophobia As An Influence On Participation In Hiv Prevention Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men (Ymsm), Kasey I. Brazee

Honors Scholar Theses

Stigma is a known barrier to accessing preventative services for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), however, the types of stigmas involved in this relationship remain not well defined. Homophobia, or negative attitudes directed towards homosexuality, is a particularly important type of stigma considering the disproportionate effect of HIV on men who have sex with men (MSM). Young MSM (YMSM) are especially impacted, making them a key population in the context of HIV prevention research.  Internalized homophobia, which refers to homophobia that one directs towards themselves, is under researched regarding its role in participating in HIV prevention. In this study, we aimed …

Sexual Touching While Sleeping: Occurrence, Context, Responses, And Perceptions Of Sexual Assault Among Undergraduates, Michelle Drouin, Tara Cornelius

Health Services and Informatics Research

Sexual consent is central to cases of sexual assault and rape. Logically, sleeping persons cannot consent; yet there has been scant research examining the experience of sexual touching while sleeping. The current research is the first known to specifically examine sexual touching with a sleeping partner, with a goal of understanding the contextual features surrounding, responses to, and perceptions of the legality and acceptability of these behaviors. Undergraduate participants from two universities (N = 724) completed several measures assessing their experience of sexual touching while sleeping, the context, sexual precedence, responses, and their perceptions of such touching. A significant proportion …

Pengaruh Media Sosial Terhadap Proses Pembelajaran Mahasiswa Perpustakaan Dan Sains Informasi, Aswan Pratama, Muh Wahyu Al Fauzal Nasrul, Harianto Harianto

Jurnal Ilmu Informasi, Perpustakaan, dan Kearsipan

This study aims to analyze the influence of social media usage on the learning process of Library and Information Science students. Using a qualitative method with in-depth interview techniques, this research explores students' experiences and lecturers' perspectives regarding digital interaction in an academic context. The results identify four main patterns: high digital distraction increasing cognitive load, the use of social media as a learning support system, emotional dependency triggering academic procrastination, and self-control strategies applied by students. The findings indicate that social media has a dualistic impact; on one hand, it serves as a source of distraction and time management …

Cross-Scale Feature Learning For Alzheimer's Disease Detection Via Hybrid Deep Networks, Essam Haidar Majeed, Fallah H. Najjar, Safaa M. Kareem, Munaf H. Kareem, Duha Amer Mahdi

Baghdad Science Journal

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder that is the leading causeof dementia. Early diagnosis is essential for interepting the progressionof cognitive decline and favoring the clinical outcome, although conventional diagnostic means may not be able to identify early symptomatic forms. In this manuscript, we propose a residual attention-based hybrid deep learning model withthe EfficientNetB1 backbone for improving the classification of AD based on structural MRI data obtained from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and ADNI1 datasets. The network structure integrates two-dimensional (2D) convolutional feature extraction, multi-head self-attention for building the global context information, and residual learning. The …

Enhanced Population Mean Estimation Using An Exponential Estimator With Known Medians Of Dual Auxiliary Variables Within A Neutrosophic Approach: Applications In Agricultural Yield Prediction, Anchal Yadav, Mukesh Kumar

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

In classical statistical theory, estimation of population parameters is generally carried out under the assumption that all observed data are precise, complete, and free from ambiguity. However, in many practical and real-world situations, data often deviate from these ideal conditions and instead appear in vague, uncertain, or interval-valued forms. Such imperfections reduce the effectiveness of traditional estimation techniques and motivate the development of more flexible and robust methodologies. To address these challenges, several improved estimators, particularly neutrosophic ratio-type estimators and their advanced extensions, have been proposed in recent literature. In this study, a new estimator known as the two auxiliary …

Wake-On-Anomaly Federated Architecture For Privacy-Preserving Poultry Health Early Warning, Mahmoud Aziz Louati

Masters Theses

Highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreaks, respiratory disease, heat stress, and silent equipment failures share one operational reality: they are detected too late because today’s poultry-health workflow is reactive, manual, and dependent on producers volunteering commercially sensitive data. This thesis presents a wake-on-anomaly federated architecture that addresses both the detection-latency problem and the privacy–adoption deadlock that has so far prevented cross-farm collaboration. The architecture is organized in two tiers. Tier 1 is a lightweight LSTM autoencoder that continuously screens four routine telemetry channels (water, feed, house temperature, activity proxy) and emits a per-window reconstruction-error score. A debounced k-of-m trigger with cooldown …
