Regenerating Publics - Developmental Inclusion: Neighborhood Opportunities And Public Realm Obstacles In Plymouth, Uk, Alessandro Aurigi

School of Art, Design and Architecture

The area around Union Street in Plymouth, UK, has been facing processes of decline. Key historical buildings sit empty, with deteriorating fabrics, epitomizing the socio-economic condition of the neighborhood. This paper explores perceptions of ‘inclusion’ in Union Street, and visions to improve it, through interviews with key stakeholders from community groups, the local authority, local businesses, landlords, local health organizations, visitors and designers. Whilst some local actors amplify inclusive processes - for example in the low-cost re-use of spaces to host micro, alternative businesses or community initiatives – these efforts clash with a general perception of a depleted and unsafe …

Effect Of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism On Hypogonadism Severity And Efficacy Of Testosterone Replacement Therapy, Nelson W Mills, Beatriz S Hernandez, Peyton J Coady, Arnaav Walia, Gal Saffati, Daniela Orozco Rendon, Dalia Khera, Nadia Khera, Weitao Song, Mohit Khera

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Background: The preferred treatment for hypogonadism, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), has a varying efficacy that is currently not fully understood. This observation may be explained by polymorphism of the androgen receptor (AR), a ligand-binding transcription factor whose polyglutamine tract length affects various health conditions and androgen sensitivity. It has been theorized that this polymorphism may also affect the severity of hypogonadism. This study sought to determine a correlation between hypogonadism severity, TRT efficacy, and number of CAG trinucleotide repeats in the AR gene.

Methods: One hundred sixty-two males presenting to a single institution with symptoms of hypogonadism were recruited for …
