Compromised Pressure-Generating Capacity Of Diaphragmatic Muscle And Its Interaction With The Lower Rib Cage At High Lung Volume During Airway Occlusion, Aladin M Boriek, Noralis Rodriguez-Santiago, Sanghyun Kim, Aubri Ford, Shari Wynd, Rolf D Hubmayr

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

The pressure generating capacity of the diaphragm is generally thought to be compromised at high lung volume either due to loss of curvature or loss of its membrane tension. At a state of hyperinflation during airway occlusion at total lung capacity, the diaphragmatic muscle is forced to contract from an initial shorter length, the zone of apposition narrows, insertional force on the chest wall is reduced and abdominal compliance falls. We hypothesize that these altered mechanical conditions at high lung volume lead to a loss of the pressure generating capacity that is mediated by excessive muscle shortening rather than loss …

Racial Disparities In Clonal Hematopoiesis And Their Impact On Hematologic Malignancies, Zijian Zhang, Chao Cheng

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a known risk factor for hematologic malignancies (HM), but its distribution and clinical implications across diverse ancestries remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated CHIP and its progression to HM in a large, racially diverse cohort from the All of Us Research Program, comprising 245,388 participants. We identified 10,446 CHIP driver mutations in 9,476 individuals. Our analysis revealed clear racial disparities in CHIP prevalence and mutational profiles: African American (AA) individuals had higher odds of CHIP and exhibited distinct mutation patterns compared to White American (WA) individuals. Consistent with prior studies, CHIP …

The Realities Of Roadkill: Challenges And Opportunities For Wildlife Transportation Mitigation, Rachel Wheat

PSU Transportation Seminars

Transportation infrastructure is critical for our communities and economies, but the roadways we depend on for travel have significant negative impacts on wildlife populations. Roadkill is the most visible consequence, with tens of millions of animals injured or killed on Oregon’s roadways each year. Beyond direct mortality, transportation corridors fragment habitat and can alter wildlife behavior, creating barriers that disrupt wildlife movement and access to critical resources, contributing to population declines. Despite these challenges, opportunities exist for mitigation, including the use of wildlife crossing structures, autonomous animal detection systems, and smarter project siting. This talk will explore the multifaceted challenges …

Transgenerational Adaptation To Hypoxia, Kathleen Kim, Ariel Telger, Gautam Sarkar, Sharan Surya, M Hafiz Rothi, Michael P Meers, Simon Yuan Wang, Eric Lieberman Greer

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Epigenetic inheritance alerts naïve descendants to prepare for stresses that could still be present, whereas distant descendants return to a basal state after several generations without stress. However, organisms are frequently exposed to stresses successively across generations. We found that parental hypoxia exposure increased P0 longevity, caused intergenerational lipid reduction, and elicited transgenerational fertility reduction that was dependent on generationally transmitted small RNAs. Here, we find that

2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Previous genomic efforts on chromosome 9p deletion and duplication syndromes have utilized low-resolution strategies (i.e., karyotypes, chromosome microarrays). These studies have provided important initial insights into these syndromes. This current study is the first large-scale whole-genome sequencing (WGS) study of 100 individuals from families with chromosome 9p syndromes.

METHODS: Through the newly formed 9P-ARCH (Advanced Research in Chromosomal Health: Genomic, Phenotypic, and Functional Aspects of 9p-Related syndromes) research network, we assembled a cohort of individuals from families with chromosome 9p syndromes. WGS was applied to 100 individuals, and other genomic technologies were applied to a subset of individuals. To …

BACKGROUND: Socioeconomic status (SES) is correlated with gunshot violence. This study examined the associations between SES and the severity of gunshot injuries in Israel.

METHODS: The Israel National Trauma Registry was reviewed for all violence-related gunshot wound patients who were admitted to all public hospitals in Israel from 2019 to 2022. Self-inflicted injuries were excluded. This time frame preceded the regional military conflict that began in October 2023 and did not include any military-related activity. The registry records patient demographics including ethnicity. Severity was assessed on the Injury Severity Score (ISS), and SES was categorized into 10 clusters based on …

Three Generations Under One Roof?: A Study Of Interhousehold Transfers Among Sandwich Generation In Indonesia, Vianey Weda Rahesti, I Dewa Gede Karma Wisana

Jurnal Ekonomi dan Studi Pembangunan

Empirical studies show some negative effects that arise in sandwich generation households. Even the negative impact of the sandwich generation raises the behavior that they want to leave the house. However, the empirical studies only measure sandwich generation if the parents live in the households, so it is necessary to recalculate sandwich generation households in Indonesia through an interhousehold transfer mechanism. This study examines interhousehold transfer differences among sandwich-generation households between parents, siblings, and others in Indonesia. Using the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2014, this study found that 4.539 or 28,6 percent of households are classified as the sandwich …

Money Demand Stability With Endogenous Structural Breaks And The Role Of Payment System Innovation In Indonesia, Wishnu Badrawani

Jurnal Ekonomi dan Studi Pembangunan

This study examines the stability of the demand for money function in Indonesia using quarterly data from 2007 to 2021, employing Gregory-Hansen's (1996) cointegration test and Hendry's general-to-specific approaches. The cointegration and error correction models show a causal relationship between money demand and its conventional determinants and payment system innovation. Considering the central bank policy that part of economic reforms captured by the structural break in the cointegration test and the stability test results of the short-run analysis, we confirm the stable narrow money and currency demand and its dynamics in Indonesia. The Gregory and Hansen test found a cointegrating …
