Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

INTRODUCTION: The COVID-19 pandemic has captured the attention of healthcare systems worldwide, and testing remains a mainstay of preoperative testing before all surgical procedures, including shoulder arthroplasty. Other viral illnesses, specifically influenza, while still having severe complications, are either overshadowed by testing for COVID-19 or not tested at all.

METHODS: A multi-institutional cohort study using the TriNetX network examined patients undergoing total or hemi shoulder arthroplasty from January 2020 to March 2024. Matched cohorts were created: one with influenza and one with COVID-19 infection, 14 days before surgery.

RESULTS: A total of 3233 and 18,209 patients were included in the …

Letter To The Editor: Evidence For A Two-Step Species-Level Pulmonary Nocardiosis Diagnostic Approach, John Halphen, Mohadese Ahmadzade, Babith Mankidy, Ashkan Berenji, Mohammad Ghasemi-Rad

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Pulmonary nocardiosis, a rare and diagnostically challenging infection, usually presents with heterogeneous radiographic findings, compounded by the low sensitivity of traditional confirmatory cultures. In their most recent work, Wang et al analyzed 102 patients with pulmonary nocardiosis to address these concerns, investigating species-characteristic imaging patterns, pathological associations, and the role of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the diagnostic approach. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) in adult patients with pulmonary infections caused by Nocardia wallacei was demonstrated to have a sensitive (85.71%) and specific (83.34%) presentation of bronchopneumonia in relation to the five Nocardia species in the sample with CT data. The …

Perinatal Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms And Maternal-Infant Bonding: A Longitudinal Examination Of Depression And Relationship Quality, Journa Njoh, Jonathan S Abramowitz, Rashelle Musci, Mary C Kimmel, Lauren M Osborne, Jack Samuels, Paul Nestadt, Gerald Nestadt, Eric A Storch

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Background

Perinatal obsessive–compulsive (OC) symptoms are common and distressing, yet their impact on early parenting outcomes such as maternal-infant bonding remains poorly understood. Although prior research links maternal depression and anxiety to bonding difficulties, less is known about how perinatal OC symptoms relate to maternal-infant bonding over time, or the extent to which maternal-partner relationship quality is associated with these outcomes, and whether depressive symptoms explain observed associations.

Methods

Data were drawn from a longitudinal study of 256 pregnant women recruited from two U.S. sites between 2020 and 2023. Participants completed self-report and clinician-administered assessments at 20 weeks (PGWK20), 34 …

Development And Performance Evaluation Of Eco-Floor Tiles Made From Avocado (Persea Americana) Seeds, And Mango (Mangifera Indica) Seeds And Peels, Mark Dominique P. Mendoza, Kristine Cassandra T. Cacapit, Zion Ezekiel Micaiah Navia, Stephanie Anne A. Lim, Dominique Mae R. Gobaton, Jace Earl P. Gabitan, Gasper Juleo L. Otgalon, Josh Ryley C. Angeles, Hanz Mikkel A. Arnuza, Gwynette R. Legaspi, June Ray O. Filler

DLSU Senior High School Research Congress Conference Proceedings

The growing demand for sustainable construction materials has led to increased interest in utilizing agricultural wastes as eco-friendly alternatives. This study examines the potential of Avocado Seeds (AS), Mango Seeds (MS), and Mango Peels (MP) as additives in eco-floor tile production, incorporating them into cement mixtures through a quasi-experimental design. Various proportions of these agricultural by-products, collectively termed as Seeds and Peels Mixtures (SPM) were evaluated for compressive strength, flexural strength, and water absorption. A One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was conducted to assess the effects of different additive ratios. Results revealed that compressive strength peaked at 49.40 MPa with …

Accepting The Invitation: Why The Nlrb's Decision On Northwestern University Football Players As Employees Would Be Different Today, Rachel Grimley

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

This Note intersects labor, employment, and sports law by reexamining the 2015 National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Northwestern decision on the employee status of student-athletes in light of recent developments in sport and labor law jurisprudence. This Note critiques the rationale of the Northwestern decision under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and highlights pertinent Name Image and Likeness and NLRB jurisprudence that signify a shift in how the NLRB views this issue. It ultimately argues that student-athletes should be considered employees under Section 2(3) of the NLRA for purposes of collective bargaining with their respective universities.

It Shouldn’T Be Sexy: Exploring The Intersection Between Staged Intimacy And The Law, Spencer Darling

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

If your job requires you to passionately embrace your coworker after surviving the seat-riveting climax action of the third act, does that complicate your workplace’s sexual harassment prevention strategy? Most jobs do not require workers to make intentional intimate contact with their coworkers. Yet, in the entertainment industry, some jobs require not just intimate contact with coworkers but selling that contact as authentic. This staged intimacy, like staged violence, carries a risk that simulated conduct can result in real harm.

When produced without precaution, staged intimacy can create working conditions that constitute sexual harassment in violation of Title VII of …

The Playbook: A Guide To College Athlete Unionization In The Wake Of Alston, Ashlyn Hare

Denver Sports & Entertainment Law Journal

Since the Supreme Court's decision in National Collegiate Athletic Association v. Alston, the movement for college athlete unionization has drastically expanded. As college sports—and their profitability—continue to grow, problems such as the exploitation of athletes of color, gender inequity, and abuse and mistreatment of athletes have signaled the need for restoring decision-making power to the athletes. This can be achieved through collective bargaining, but the complexity of college sports and its many stakeholders makes the route to a college athletes players association far from clear. This article analyzes the legal pitfalls in previous unionization efforts, and provides solutions to the …

Maternal Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccination And Preterm Birth A Utah Statewide Retrospective Cohort Study, Amy Solsman, Torri Metz, Josh Benton, Shana Godfred-Cato

Knowledge and Creativity Expo

We conducted a statewide, retrospective cohort study to evaluate the association between maternal receipt of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine and preterm birth. All individuals who delivered a singleton neonate in Utah and were between 32 0/7 and 36 6/7 weeks of gestation from September 2023 to February 2024 were included and followed up until delivery. Overall, 2,733 of 24,213 individuals (11.3%) received the vaccine. Vaccine receipt was associated with lower odds of preterm birth (5.5% vaccinated group vs 6.8% unvaccinated group, adjusted odds ratio 0.80, 95% CI, 0.67–0.95). Receipt of the RSV vaccine was not associated with any …
