Substitution Of Kudzu Starch For Cornstarch Results In Dairy-Based Vanilla Pudding With Similar Texture And Consumer Acceptability, Carissa D. Ingram

Honors College Theses

Kudzu, also known as kuzu, is a rapidly growing, vine invasive in the Southeastern United States following introduction for soil erosion control in the late 19th century. Native to Southeastern Asia, its roots are rich in starch which has been used in traditional Eastern cuisine as a sauce thickener. Use of kudzu starch in Western cuisine is limited. This study compared the consistency, percent sag, and consumer acceptability of whole milk vanilla pudding prepared with kudzu starch to vanilla pudding prepared with cornstarch, a more commonly used thickening agent in the United States (control). The consistency (Bostwick Consistometer; 50°C) and …

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors And Angiotensin Receptor Blockers In Acute Heart Failure: Invasive Hemodynamic Parameters And Clinical Outcomes., Kevin Bryan Lo, Hesam Mostafavi Toroghi, Grace Salacup, Jiahui Jiang, Ruchika Bhargav, Eduardo Quintero, Kira Balestrini, Anum Shahzad, Roy O Mathew, Peter A Mccullough, Janani Rangaswami

Department of Medicine Faculty Papers

There are limited data regarding the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEi/ARBs) in acute heart failure (AHF). The purpose is to determine the patterns of ACEi/ARB use at the time of admission and discharge in relation to invasive hemodynamic data, mortality, and heart failure (HF) readmissions. This is a retrospective single-center study in patients with AHF who underwent right heart catheterization between January 2010 and December 2016. Patients on dialysis, evidence of shock, or incomplete follow up were excluded. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors associated with continuation of ACEi/ARB use on discharge …

Plague And The Fall Of Baghdad (1258), Nahyan Fancy, Monica H. Green

History Faculty publications

The recent suggestion that the late medieval Eurasian plague pandemic, the Black Death, had its origins in the thirteenth century rather than the fourteenth century has brought new scrutiny to texts reporting ‘epidemics’ in the earlier period. Evidence both from Song China and Iran suggests that plague was involved in major sieges laid by the Mongols between the 1210s and the 1250s, including the siege of Baghdad in 1258 which resulted in the fall of the Abbasid caliphate. In fact, re-examination of multiple historical accounts in the two centuries after the siege of Baghdad shows that the role of epidemic …

Implementing Modern Management In Nursing, Ashley E. Hall

MSN Capstone Projects

Throughout the recent years, there has been occurrence of massive nursing shortages across the country. While there are many explanations as to why these shortages could be occurring, one very common explanation is that of poor leadership. As it now stands, the training for new leaders is a “trial by fire” style of orientation. New leaders either have a short training period consisting of minor introductions and gathering of various system access, or no training for their new position whatsoever. This style of orientation leads to poor outcomes for the leader as well as the team they are put in …

How Do Emergency Medical Service Workers Cope With Daily Stressors?, Bryce Hruska, Marley S. Barduhn

Population Health Research Brief Series

Emergency medical service (EMS) workers face triple the risk for significant mental health problems like depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to the general population. This brief summarizes the results of a study that surveyed EMS workers in Syracuse, NY to better understand how their mental health symptoms relate to daily occupational stressors. These stressors can take the form of routine work demands, critical incidents involving serious harm or death, and social conflicts. The study also examined whether daily mental health symptoms may be reduced through protective behaviors in the form of recovery activities such as exercising, socializing with …

Étude De L’Applicabilité De Haut-Parleurs Paramétriques Au Développement De Nouveaux Concepts D’Alarmes De Recul, Olivier Robin, Alain Berry, Hugues Nélisse

Rapports de recherche scientifique

L’utilisation d’alarmes de recul est obligatoire sur une majorité de véhicules lourds et reste un moyen largement utilisé pour prévenir et alerter les personnes œuvrant à proximité de ces véhicules. Des études antérieures, réalisées par l’IRSST, ont montré les limites d’efficacité des alarmes utilisées en milieu de travail pour minimiser le risque à la sécurité des travailleurs. De plus, les alarmes de recul, par le son de niveau élevé et très typé qu’elles produisent, sont régulièrement une source de nuisance importante pour les travailleurs, et aussi pour les riverains. Ces problèmes de gêne et de perception sonore pour les travailleurs …

BACKGROUND: Myocarditis is a potentially fatal complication of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. Data on the utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 and T2 mapping in ICI myocarditis are limited.

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to assess the value of CMR T1 and T2 mapping in patients with ICI myocarditis.

METHODS: In this retrospective study from an international registry of patients with ICI myocarditis, clinical and CMR findings (including T1 and T2 maps) were collected. Abnormal T1 and T2 were defined as 2 SD above site (vendor/field strength specific) reference values and a z-score was calculated for each patient. Major …

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an unexpected sudden death due to a heart condition, that occurs within one hour of symptoms onset. SCD is a leading cause of death in western countries, and is responsible for the majority of deaths from cardiovascular disease. Moreover, SCD accounts for mortality in approximately half of all coronary heart disease patients. Nevertheless, the recent advancements made in screening, prevention, treatment, and management of the underlying causes has decreased this number. In this article, we sought to review established and new modes of screening patients at risk for SCD, treatment and prevention of SCD, and …
