Gentrification, Amie Thurber, Amy Krings

School of Social Work Faculty Publications and Presentations

Gentrification can be understood as the process through which geographical areas become increasingly exclusive, which disproportionately harms people living in poverty and people of color, as well as the elderly, families, and youth. As such, this article argues that macro social work practitioners should view gentrification as a key concern. Thus, to help guide macro interventions, the article begins by first defining gentrification and describing ways to measure it, while emphasizing its difference from revitalization. Second, the article explores causes of gentrification, including its relationship to systemic racism. Third, the article explores the consequences of gentrification on individuals’ and communities’ …

Repensando A San Simón, El Sincretismo Y La Autoridad Antropológica, C. James Mackenzie

Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis

The tradition of San Simón in Guatemala has long garnered considerable interest among foreign and national academics, tourists, and Guatemalans in general from a range of backgrounds. Many, though not all, are drawn to the ambiguity and multiple identities often attributed to this deity, including associations with Pedro de Alvarado and Judas Iscariot as well as autochthonous figures such as the Maya deity Mam or other figures from Indigenous history and culture. In this article, based primarily on ethnographic research conducted since 1994, I trace opinions and assessments concerning San Simón, from a range of interlocutors, and consider how these …

A Reevaluation Of The Tolerability And Effects Of Single-Dose Ivermectin Treatment On Onchocerca Volvulus Microfilariae In The Skin And Eyes In Eastern Ghana, Nicholas O Opoku, Michael E Gyasi, Felix Doe, Daphne Lew, Augustine R Hong, Sithembele Chithenga, Peter U Fischer, Christopher L King, Gary J Weil

Open Access Publications

Mass administration of ivermectin (IVM) has significantly reduced onchocerciasis prevalence, intensity, and morbidity in most endemic areas. Most IVM clinical trials were performed long ago in persons with high-intensity infections that are uncommon in West Africa today. This cohort treatment study recruited participants from a hypoendemic area in eastern Ghana to reevaluate the efficacy and tolerability of IVM with a special focus on the kinetics of microfilaria (Mf) clearance. Mf in the skin and anterior chambers (AC) were assessed by skin snip and slit lamp examinations at baseline and at 3 and 6 months after treatment with IVM 150 μg/kg. …

The Silence Of The Clams: Forestry Registered Pesticides As Multiple Stressors On Soft-Shell Clams., Alexandra G. Tissot, Elise F. Granek, Anne W. Thompson, Michelle L. Hladik, Patrick W. Moran, Kaegan Scully-Engelmeyer

Environmental Science and Management Faculty Publications and Presentations

Contaminants are ubiquitous in the environment, often reaching aquatic systems. Combinations of forestry use pesticides have been detected in both water and aquatic organism tissue samples in coastal systems. Yet, most toxicological studies focus on the effects of these pesticides individually, at high doses, and over acute time periods, which, while key for establishing toxicity and safe limits, are rarely environmentally realistic. We examined chronic (90 days) exposure by the soft-shell clam, Mya arenaria, to environmentally relevant concentrations of four pesticides registered for use in forestry (atrazine, 5 μg/L; hexazinone, 0.3 μg/L; indaziflam, 5 μg/L; and bifenthrin, 1.5 μg/g organic …

Cardiac Rehabilitation Benchmark Study, Catherine Cottle

MSN Capstone Projects

This benchmark study attempts to evaluate the effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation in reducing mortality and hospital readmission rates of post-myocardial infarction patients. Several peer-reviewed articles were reviewed assessing the efficacy of cardiac rehabilitation. It was discovered that cardiac rehabilitation reduced several negative effects regarding heart disease, including the reduction of mortality and hospital readmission rates.

A Narrative Review Of Closing Bundles To Prevent Surgical Site Infections, James G. Tucker

MSN Capstone Projects

Each year, surgical site infections (SSIs) ravage patients and our healthcare system. The amount of pain, suffering, and money lost each year to a mostly preventable complication places a great deal of strain on our already fragile healthcare system. In the following paragraphs, sound, quantifiable data is presented indicating the effectiveness of closing bundles. While no "one size fits all" bundle can be recommended, the evidence presented suggests that using additional evidence-based interventions in surgical patients' care drastically lowers SSI rates. The need for future research revolves around tailoring bundles to meet the needs of individual patients. No two patients …

Mathematicians' Beliefs, Instruction, And Students' Beliefs: How Related Are They?, Rachel L. Rupnow

Faculty Articles, Papers, and Other Scholarship

It is generally accepted that teachers' beliefs impact their instructional choices, but characterizations of that relationship are limited in college settings. Furthermore, examinations of instructor beliefs, instruction, and student beliefs together in one setting are rarely described. Based on interviews with two Abstract Algebra instructors, classroom video from three units of instruction, and survey and interview data from students in the classes, this paper examines instructors' stated beliefs, ways these beliefs manifested in their teaching, and students' beliefs across the course. Both instructors made curricular choices clearly aligned with their stated views of the nature of mathematics, learning, and teaching. …
