Abstract:

Purpose Much of the extant research, practice and policy in engineering education has focused on the limited persistence, waning interest and lack of preparation among Black students to continue beyond the post-secondary engineering pipeline. However, this research suggests that many Black PhD students persist and succeed in engineering, fueled by various motivational strengths. To better understand the motivations of Black students in engineering doctoral programs, this study aims to explore the factors that influence their decision to enroll in either an engineering or a computing doctoral p

Abstract:

Approximately 50 years ago, the Kerner Commission Report cited pervasive racial discrimination in training, education, and employment as a contributor to Black–White inequality and stratification in the United States. This article considers if the Kerner Commission Report incentivized and possibly caused an increase in the production and hiring of Black PhD economists in academia. With longitudinal data on counts of economic doctorates earned by Black Americans employed in economics departments between 1957 and 2018, we estimate the parameters of count data specifications that accounts for the

Abstract:

The 16-year journey from being a doctoral student to a tenured Associate Professor as a Black woman has been eventful. This essay provides a peek into some of the unforgettable moments experienced by one Black female PhD during that journey. It highlights how having a PhD as a Black woman has not resulted in the same respect and reverence generally afforded to those who are White. It reminds us of the work that still needs to be done if we are ever going to be able to honestly say that the playing field is even. It is also a story of resolve and commitment, and how it can be possible to find n

Abstract:

Abstract Background Brazil has transitioned from an intermediate to low hepatitis A virus endemic country, increasing the risk of severe Hepatitis A (HepA) disease. To control transmission, the HepA vaccine, MSD, was introduced in the National Childhood Immunization Program (NIP) in 2014 for children aged 12-24 months and extended to children under 5 years old in 2017. We evaluated the impact of the vaccination on the HepA incidence, associated healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and costs.

Abstract Background Taniborbactam is a novel, non-ß-lactam, ß-lactamase inhibitor with activity against serine (Class A, C, D) and metallo (Class B) ß-lactamases including epidemiologically important carbapenemases. Both cefepime and taniborbactam are predominantly renally excreted and are likely to require dose adjustment in patients with renal impairment and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The current study was designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety in patients with renal impairment and ESRD.

Abstract Background The BRAAVE 2020 study is evaluating the safety and efficacy of switching to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) among virologically suppressed Black adults with HIV. At Week (W) 24, 0.6% (2/328) on B/F/TAF vs 1.8% (3/165) who stayed on their baseline 3 drug regimen (SBR) had HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 c/mL demonstrating noninferiority of B/F/TAF. Here, resistance analyses and virologic outcomes at W48 are described.

In this research paper photogrammetric techniques have been successfully applied to historic black and white analogic photographs to convey previously inaccessible architectural and archaeological information. The chosen case study for this paper is the Franciscan Basilica of Santa Croce in Florence, Italy.

Abstract Background Third line antiretroviral regimens have been associated with suboptimal virologic suppression, due to drug cross-resistance and regimen complexity. Yet, in treatment-experienced (TE) HIV patients, ART durability is essential for preventing further resistance and decreasing HIV-associated morbidity and mortality. Ibalizumab (IBA), the first long-acting, post-attachment inhibitor approved to treat multi-drug resistant (MDR) HIV, may support regimen durability given its directly observed administration.

Mouse genetic studies reveal that ascorbic acid (AA) is essential for osteoblast (OB) differentiation and that osterix (Osx) was a key downstream target of AA action in OBs. To determine the molecular pathways for AA regulation of Osx expression, we evaluated if AA regulates Osx expression by regulating production and/or actions of local growth factors and extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Inhibition of actions of IGFs by inhibitory IGFBP-4, BMPs by noggin, and ECM-mediated integrin signaling by RGD did not block AA effects on Osx expression in OBs.

The work of the French playwright Bernard-Marie Koltès, although phenomenally successful in continental Europe, has been staged less frequently in Anglo-American theatres; and a major feature on his work in NTQ49 in February 1997, and the publication by Methuen later in the same year of a collection of three of his plays in English translation, brought him only belated recognition in print. In this paper, first presented at a recent gathering in France to mark the tenth anniversary of Koltès's death, Maria Delgado and David Fancy trace the trajectory of a number of his plays through the space

They are biodegradable, environmentally friendly, and also biocompatible bioplastics. Unlike petrochemical-based plastics that take several decades to fully degrade, PHAs can be completely degraded within a year by variety of microorganisms into CO2and water. In the present study, we aim to utilize pulp, paper, and cardboard industry sludge and waste water for the isolation and screening of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) accumulating bacteria and production o
