Mass Spectrometry-based Analysis of Superwarfarins and their Metabolites and the Investigation of Novel Treatments for Poisoned Victims

Creator:: Nosal, Daniel Grzegorz
Abstract:: Superwarfarins are anticoagulant rodenticides that are 100 times more potent and 15 times more persistent than warfarin. They have been used since the 1980s and cause over 10,000 cases of accidental and intentional poisonings per year. Apart from inducing uncontrollable bleeding, by inhibiting the vitamin K cycle, superwarfarins can disrupt...

Perceived Discrimination and Hypertension: Contextual and Mediating Factors

Creator:: Sims, Kendra D.
Abstract:: Marginalized groups in the United States are often diagnosed with hypertension at younger ages, contributing to their excess burden of cardiovascular disease. These disparities in blood pressure control do not appear to be fully accounted for by individual risk factors, such as health behaviors or genetic differences. Experiences of discrimination...

Search for Non-Einsteinian Polarization Modes in the Gravitational-Wave Background using NANOGrav’s 12.5 Year Data Set

Creator:: Laal, Nima
Abstract:: I led a collaborative project involving a search for an evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) with all the spatial correlations allowed by general metric theories of gravity using NANOGrav’s 12.5 year data set. The search found no substantial evidence in favor of the existence of such correlations. The...

From Perception to Planning : Adaptation in Flood-risk Communities

Creator:: Gomez, Luis A.
Abstract:: This research asserts that flood risk perception of individuals living in floodplains influences their preparedness for taking actions to protect themselves from flood hazards. The results of this research are backed up by quantitative analysis of survey responses of individuals living in floodplains of Corvallis, OR in the USA. The...

Access and Utilization of Mental Healthcare Services Among Children and Adolescents in India – A mixed-methods study

Creator:: Vasanth Rao, Deeksha
Abstract:: Background: According to the National Mental Health Survey (NMHS), the treatment gap of any mental disorder in India among the general population was reported to be as high as 83% (R. S. Murthy, 2017). There is insufficient evidence currently describing the treatment gap among the child and adolescent population. Given...

Young-of-the-year rockfish (Sebastes spp.) settlement dynamics in Oregon estuaries

Creator:: Dauble, Alison D.
Abstract:: In the Pacific Northwest, several species of rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) are under extreme conservation measures due to low population levels. Although currently at healthy population levels, one species of interest is the black rockfish (S. melanops), which has been shown to utilize estuarine habitat during its early life history stages....

Effects of Catfish and Crawfish Imports on U.S. Domestic Prices

Creator:: Kennedy, P. Lynn and Lee, Young-Jae
Abstract:: Recent increases in imports of catfish and crawfish have caused concern as to their impact on domestic prices. This study identifies the linkages between imports of these goods and U.S. producer prices. Increases in imports of catfish are shown to decrease related domestic prices. However, recent trends show a simultaneous...

Antibiotic Resistance in Septic Sludge and Receiving Environments of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Creator:: Schutzius, Genevieve Conyers
Abstract:: Approximately ninety percent of urban Vietnamese households are connected to septic tanks, from which up to three-quarters of the sludge is reported to be dumped into waterways in residential areas. Vietnam has a considerable prevalence of antibiotic misuse and resultant antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) in the human microbiome. Due to the...

Identifying Threshold Values of Accelerometer-Determined Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity that Correspond to Self-Reported Compliance to the 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans : National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2006

Creator:: Brier, Julie A.
Abstract:: Current public health guidelines for physical activity (PA) were primarily formulated using evidence collected from a series of prospective cohort epidemiological investigations that measured self-reported PA. In light of this observation, and the known discordance between self-reported and objectively-monitored PA, it remains common for researchers to assess compliance to current...

Individual Differences in Retronasal Odor Responsiveness : Effects of Aging and Concurrent Taste

Creator:: Flaherty, Tyler J.
Abstract:: Taste sensitivity has been considered the primary chemosensory factor in studies of chemical senses and ingestive behavior. However, recent research has shown that retronasal olfaction is at least equally important in food preference and selection. Additionally, taste has been shown to modulate perceived intensity of retronasally perceived odors. The objectives...
