Albinism In Olivierus Martensii (Karsch, 1879) (Scorpiones: Buthidae), Victoria Tang, Zhenbang Liu Oct 2024

Albinism In Olivierus Martensii (Karsch, 1879) (Scorpiones: Buthidae), Victoria Tang, Zhenbang Liu

Euscorpius

This is a formal case report for the albinism in Olivierus martensii (Karsch, 1879). Albino phenotype is compared with its normal counterpart in terms of their morphology and behavior by cursory experiments. The examined 7 albino individuals (5 of which were adults) were smaller and more slender than their normal counterparts. However, these quantitative differences were not statistically significant and should be treated with caution due to the low sample size. Their abilities to detect both white light and UV light or UV-excited fluorescence were not significantly undermined, although their tendency to ensure a clear vision through self-cleaning behavior appeared …

A Ligation-Independent Sequencing Method Reveals Trna-Derived Rnas With Blocked 3′ Termini, Grace S Lee, Jeremy E Wilusz, Colin C Conine, Roberto Bonasio Oct 2024

A Ligation-Independent Sequencing Method Reveals Trna-Derived Rnas With Blocked 3′ Termini, Grace S Lee, Jeremy E Wilusz, Colin C Conine, Roberto Bonasio

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Despite the numerous sequencing methods available, the diversity in RNA size and chemical modification makes it difficult to capture all RNAs in a cell. We developed a method that combines quasi-random priming with template switching to construct sequencing libraries from RNA molecules of any length and with any type of 3' modifications, allowing for the sequencing of virtually all RNA species. Our ligation-independent detection of all types of RNA (LIDAR) is a simple, effective tool to identify and quantify all classes of coding and non-coding RNAs. With LIDAR, we comprehensively characterized the transcriptomes of mouse embryonic stem cells, neural progenitor …

College Readiness In Career And Technical Education Instruction During The Pandemic, Kenyetta A. Kendrick Oct 2024

College Readiness In Career And Technical Education Instruction During The Pandemic, Kenyetta A. Kendrick

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

College and career readiness (CCR) has become a priority in national education policy, leading to changes to CCR standards, practices, and measurements. In response to the COVID pandemic, school closings altered student engagement in career and technical education (CTE) courses. CTE teachers played a crucial role in providing CCR support to students by looking for ways to better align curriculum and engagement for successful transitions from high school to college. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to examine how teachers’ implementation of college and career instruction in CTE courses was influenced by the pandemic. Conley’s college readiness framework …


The Perspective Of Formerly Incarcerated African American Men During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Iyesha Shauntae' Franklin Oct 2024

The Perspective Of Formerly Incarcerated African American Men During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Iyesha Shauntae' Franklin

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

The confluence of two devastating circumstances—the COVID-19 pandemic and the crowded, insalubrious living conditions in American jails as a result of mass incarceration, brought about an epidemic of an unprecedented magnitude. The large jail population, highly susceptible to infections due to overcrowded conditions, experienced exponential spread of the virus. While earlier research examined unhealthy situations related to the prison environment and their effects on inmates, the focus of such studies was not typically major crises or disease outbreaks in prisons. This qualitative phenomenological study used 10 participants located in the southeastern United States as a case study to better understand …

Hydrogen Underground Storage For Grid Electricity Storage: An Optimization Study On Techno-Economic Analysis, Yunzhi Chen, Daniel Hill, Blake Billings, John Hedengren, Kody Powell

Faculty Publications

This study performs a techno-economic analysis of hydrogen underground storage systems for grid electricity storage, evaluating their economic viability at the plant scale using dynamic optimization. It explores the feasibility of various system configurations and revenue models in the context of volatile electricity prices and the necessity for multiple revenue streams. The hypothesis tested is that large-scale hydrogen storage, despite its low round-trip efficiency, can be economically viable with the right mix of revenue streams. This study uses scenario-based analysis to assess the impacts of different system configurations, including engaging in time-shifting arbitrage, ancillary service markets and blending hydrogen with …


Syntaxin 3b: A Snare Protein Required For Vision Oct 2024

Syntaxin 3b: A Snare Protein Required For Vision

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Syntaxin 3 is a member of a large protein family of syntaxin proteins that mediate fusion between vesicles and their target membranes. Mutations in the ubiquitously expressed syntaxin 3A splice form give rise to a serious gastrointestinal disorder in humans called microvillus inclusion disorder, while mutations that additionally involve syntaxin 3B, a splice form that is expressed primarily in retinal photoreceptors and bipolar cells, additionally give rise to an early onset severe retinal dystrophy. In this review, we discuss recent studies elucidating the roles of syntaxin 3B and the regulation of syntaxin 3B functionality in membrane fusion and neurotransmitter release …

The article proceeds by examining the prayer and homily from the rites of ordination for Bishops, Priests, and Deacons in order to observe the biblical foundations of ordained ministry, the role of ordained ministry within salvation history, the functional and ontological dimensions of ordained ministry, the living out of the Sacrament of Holy Orders, and the role of the Holy Spirit in ordained ministry.


A Brief Consideration Of The Sacrament Of Marriage: From A Catholic Perspective For Pentecostal Christians, Walter F. Kedjierski Oct 2024

A Brief Consideration Of The Sacrament Of Marriage: From A Catholic Perspective For Pentecostal Christians, Walter F. Kedjierski

Spiritus: ORU Journal of Theology

In this article Kedjierski attempts to highlight areas of convergence between Pentecostal and Catholic understandings of the covenant of marriage while at the same time explicating the divergences of their respective theologies of marriage. He begins with a personal testimony as to why it is important, particularly for Pentecostals and other Christians, to understand why the ritual associated with marriage is important to Catholics. Then he proceeds to explain the Catholic view of marriage as a sacrament that could be intelligible to Pentecostal audiences, including the place of the Holy Spirit in the ritual and living out of marriage. Subsequent …


Varieties Of Healing: A Catholic Perspective, Andrew Prevot Oct 2024

Varieties Of Healing: A Catholic Perspective, Andrew Prevot

Spiritus: ORU Journal of Theology

This article contributes to Catholic-Pentecostal ecumenical dialogue by offering a particular Catholic perspective on the shared Christian belief in Christ is the Healer. More specifically, it distinguishes several ways in which humans are called to participate in the healing work of Christ. It considers Catholic approaches to sacramental, charismatic, miraculous, biomedical, psychotherapeutic, social, and ecological healing. It reflects on the historical background, contemporary significance, and interconnections of these diverse areas of healing, while distinguishing such a holistic understanding of healing from the narrower concept of a cure. Acknowledging the problem of unhealed sufferers, it argues against blaming such persons for …

Full Issue Spiritus 9.2 (Fall 2024), Jeffrey S. Lamp

Spiritus: ORU Journal of Theology

This issue of Spiritus is a special one indeed. Almost three years ago I received a message from Martin Mittelstadt of Evangel University concerning the dialogue underway between representatives of the Pentecostal and Charismatic Churches of North America (PCCNA) and the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). This dialogue would take place over a three-year period (2021–2003), with papers and responses addressing three topics from the perspectives of Pentecostals and Roman Catholics. The participants expressed an interest in having the presentations from this dialogue published in journals representing both traditions.
