Introduction, Jirayudh Sinthuphan

Asian Review

Asia is a problematic concept. What is Asia, other than a way of setting apart a group of non-Western cultures from the West? It is, historically, culturally, and politically, a diverse region that is artificially constructed through a rather generalized perspective. As a result, we often miss some important details in the development of a national state in Asia that has contributed to Asia’s diverse forms of sociopolitical existences and challenges. Articles appearing in this issue of the Asian Review bring to light some of these missing details and provide readers with clearer insights to Asia’s diversity.

Multiple correspondence analysis is conducted to form the scales of internet use and autonomy of use. Linear regressions were used to test the scales' effects on the social structure of ICT use in Thailand.  The findings indicate that Internet use can be categorized into the intensity of internet use and commercial and leisure use. The intensity …

Biting The Bullet: A Bipartisan Solution To Increase Debtors' Access To Chapter 7 Relief While Exempting Firearms In A Bankruptcy Case, Ishaq Kundawala

Articles

Imagine an individual who is too broke to file for bankruptcy relief.' This irony is far too often a reality in America, especially for people living in underserved communities. Debtors are simply unable to skimp and save up even a thousand dollars to pay their bankruptcy attorney. Paying their bankruptcy attorney upfront in full is the only ticket to seeking Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief. For a variety of reasons, Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief is the most advantageous type for a majority of poor and middle-class individuals and families.4 It provides these individuals and families with an expedient, fresh financial start …

Modeling The Binding Of Ω-Conotoxin And Other Toxins To The N-Type Voltage-Gated Calcium Channel, Serena Sha, Sophie Welch, Ashley Guillen-Tapia

Protein Modeling Reports

Approximately 1.5 billion people in the world suffer from chronic pain, persistent pain that carries on for longer than 12 weeks despite medication or treatment. Management of chronic pain typically includes the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or prescription pain medications, including opioids. An alternative therapy derived from conotoxins, toxins released from marine predatory snails in the family Conidae, was approved for the treatment of severe chronic pain in 2004. This pharmaceutical has the trade name Prialt and is also known as ziconotide. Once ziconotide is in the human body, it acts as a channel blocker of the N-type …

Measuring The Effects Of Pre-Exhaust Training Using Electromyography, Zephaniah S. Pratt Jan 2022

Measuring The Effects Of Pre-Exhaust Training Using Electromyography, Zephaniah S. Pratt

Undergraduate Theses, Professional Papers, and Capstone Artifacts

This review is an examination of pre-exhaust electromyography studies, their cumulative results, and a discussion of specific shortcomings they exhibit. It concludes with a discussion on improvements future studies in the field can incorporate. Specifically, this review addresses the lack of understanding in regards to the current primary uses of PE (pre-exhaust), and EMG’s (electromyography) drawbacks when used to measure PE effectiveness. Current practices of PE focus on advanced weight training athletes attempting to improve the stimulus to fatigue ratio of their lifting sessions, and reduce their risk of injury. Research thus far has mainly focused on cross sectional studies …

A Progressive Learning Strategy For Large-Scale Glacier Mapping, Zhiyuan Xie, Umesh K. Haritashya, Vijayan K. Asari Jan 2022

A Progressive Learning Strategy For Large-Scale Glacier Mapping, Zhiyuan Xie, Umesh K. Haritashya, Vijayan K. Asari

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

In recent years, the worldwide temperature increase has resulted in rapid deglaciation and a higher risk of glacier-related natural hazards such as flooding and debris flow. Due to the severity of these hazards, continuous observation and detailed analysis of glacier fluctuations are crucial. Many such analyses require an accurately delineated glacier boundary. However, the complexity and heterogeneity of glaciers, particularly debris-covered glaciers (DCGs), poses a challenge for glacier mapping when using conventional remote sensing or machine-learning techniques. Some examples exist about small-scale automated glacier mapping, but large or regional-scale mapping is challenging. Previously, a deep-learning-based approach named GlacierNet2 had been …

Movement For A Purpose: The Middle School Classroom And Student Engagement, Emily F. Chestnut

South Carolina Association for Middle Level Education Journal

Research evidence reminds middle school educators why movement is an essential physical and emotional component of adolescent learning and development. The aim of this article is to remove the negative or stressful stigma many educators have about movement in the classroom and provide practical strategies to allow students to move each day.

Intestinal Helminth Infection, Anemia, Undernutrition And Academic Performance Among School Children In Northwestern Ethiopia, Abraham Degarege, Berhanu Erko, Yohannes Negash, Abebe Animut

Journal Articles: Epidemiology

This study examined the prevalence and intensity of intestinal helminth infections and their association with anemia, undernutrition, and academic performance among school children in Maksegnit, northwestern Ethiopia. A total of 1205 school children, who attended Maksegnit Number Two Elementary School between May and July 2021, participated in this study. To determine helminth infection status, two thick Kato–Katz slides were examined for each child. Hemoglobin level was measured using a HemoCue machine. Academic performance was assessed using the mean score of all subjects children have taken for the Spring 2020/2021 academic term. Out of 1205 children examined, 45.4% were infected with …

Broadband Impact On Education And Workforce During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Isabella Baxter, Sreedhar Upendram Jan 2022

Broadband Impact On Education And Workforce During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Isabella Baxter, Sreedhar Upendram

Digital Access

A library hotspot lending program was popular with low and middle income Tennessee residents. The primary uses of broadband during the COVID-19 pandemic were for school work, connecting with family, conducting research and entertainment purposes. Residents used the program to access broadband when faced with a lack of reliable local broadband service or high-cost subscription plans. The Community Capitals Framework can be used as a strategy to address digital divide and improve broadband access for underserved communities that wish to replicate or expand similar programs. COVID-19 pandemic notably had a negative impact on work productivity and children’s academic performance.
