Usp1 Expression Driven By Ews::Fli1 Dually Promotes Ewing Sarcoma Cell Survival By Mitigating The Replication Stress Response And Stabilizing Survivin, Halle Mallard
Theses & Dissertations
Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is a malignant pediatric bone cancer. EWS express a fusion oncogene resulting from the reciprocal translocation of EWSR1 an ETS transcription factor. In most EWS tumors, this occurs with FLI1, creating the EWS::FLI1 fusion oncogene which encodes an aberrant transcription factor. Independent of its transcriptional activity, EWS::FLI1 deregulates other cellular processes driving oncogenesis. For cases with a single, localized tumor, roughly 80% of patients remain event-free after five years. Disease dissemination is a problem – about 25% of patients have metastatic disease at diagnosis. Long-term survival for these patients is less than 40%. Presently, no second line …
Prevalence Of Type A And Type B Personality Among Undergraduate Nursing Students At Private School Of Nursing Karachi Pakistan: A Cross-Sectional Analytical Study, Farhana Shaheen
Theses & Dissertations
Background: Academic institutions strive for exceptional graduates. However, personality and learning psychology affect student performance. Type A personality students may develop heart palpitations due to impatience and stress. They are less sociable than Type B personalities but more idealistic, competitive, and deadline oriented. These disparities among personalities may impair their academic and job success, especially in healthcare, where interpersonal skills are vital.
Aims: The primary aim of the study was to find out the prevalence of Type A and Type B personality among undergraduate nursing students and to find the association between personality Types and academic years.
Methodology: In this …
Mechanisms Of Mutated Myosin Vb Mediated Cholestasis In Microvillus Inclusion Disease, Melissa S. Holzapfel
Mechanisms Of Mutated Myosin Vb Mediated Cholestasis In Microvillus Inclusion Disease, Melissa S. Holzapfel
Theses & Dissertations
Microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) is a constitutive intestinal epithelial disease which causes definitive intestinal failure and cholestatic liver disease primarily caused by mutations in the Myosin Vb gene. Genotype-clinical phenotype associations suggest that the progression of liver disease can be predicted through a correlation between myosin Vb residual function and variable retention of bile salt transport machinery in intestinal enterocytes and liver hepatocytes. We proposed that aberrant distribution of bile salt transport proteins disrupts enterohepatic regulation of bile acids and contributes to the progression of cholestatic liver disease. To investigate the genotype-phenotype correlation, samples from MVID patients were evaluated for …
Cystic Duct Morphology And Heister Valves: A Cadaveric Study, Cierra R. Goerish
Cystic Duct Morphology And Heister Valves: A Cadaveric Study, Cierra R. Goerish
Theses & Dissertations
Continued occurrence of cholelithiasis, gallstones, commonly results in cholecystectomy, removal of the gallbladder. Having a comprehensive anatomical, histological, and physiological knowledge of the biliary apparatus is imperative in clinical medicine today. Additionally, the functionality of cystic duct (CD) Heister valves (HV) has been speculatory since being reported in 1732. This study summarizes the morphology, orientation, and variability of the gross biliary system and provides data to help justify HV functionality.
Cadaveric dissection was utilized for gross observation and analysis of the biliary system. The angulation of the CD was found primarily as an acute angle; however, obtuse angulation could be …
Translating A Pediatric Weight Management Intervention Into Medically Underserved Areas, Caitlin Golden
Translating A Pediatric Weight Management Intervention Into Medically Underserved Areas, Caitlin Golden
Theses & Dissertations
Despite substantial prevention and treatment efforts, childhood obesity remains a pressing public health concern. Disparities persist in obesity prevalence among children of lower socioeconomic status, racial and ethnic minority groups, and those residing in rural areas. The vast majority of efficacious pediatric weight management interventions (PWMIs) have been based in larger cities and urban areas delivered through inter-disciplinary teams in a hospital or medical center, and the degree to which these or other efficacious PWMIs have been translated to, and are feasible in, typical rural or micropolitan areas is unclear. This dissertation describes a dissemination strategy and a systematic approach …
