However, the association of each aspect of resilience on mental health, depression, and adverse childhood events (ACEs) have not been closely examined. Discerning which aspects of resilience are associated with mental health issues, depression, and ACEs can help psychiatric nurses determine eff ective treatments and interventions for at-risk patients. One hundred ninety-fi ve community-dwelling participants (ages 18 to 89) were invited to Purdue University in Indiana and Scripps College in California for the study. Participants completed the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA), which examines six aspects of resilience: perception of self, planned future, social competence, structured style, family cohesion, and social resources. Additionally, the SF-12® Health Survey, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) scale, and an ACE survey were completed. Using the six aspects of resilience as predictors, three hierarchical regression models were built with SF-12®, CES-D, and ACE as dependent variables. Findings showed that negative perception of self and impaired sense of planned future were associated with mental health issues; additionally, a lack of social resources was associated with depression, and weakened family cohesion was associated with ACEs. Psychiatric nurses can utilize the RSA during initial assessments to determine the most problematic areas for patients and fi nd ways to target their treatment and interventions. Pediatric nurses can also assess ACEs present in a child’s life and encourage family therapy sessions to promote family cohesion.","PeriodicalId":30386,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90931272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Th rough revitalization of these neighborhoods, the well-being of the community and the livability of the area for residents could be increased. Th e purpose of this study was to identify geographical and quantitative trends associated with these transient residents. In partnership with the City of Lafayette, the study analyzed geographical and numerical data about local households to understand these trends and aid in the city’s eff ort to increase resident retention in the northern neighborhoods by identifying areas to focus retention eff orts on. Th e study focused on analyzing household data to identify locations with patterns of households at high risk of low retention. Th e method used to identify these locations was plotting each household on a map of the studied neighborhoods and fi ltering households by diff erent factors determined to signifi cantly aff ect retention to derive geographical trends. Analyzing these trends showed that young low-income home renters were more likely to live in their home for shorter amounts of time. Geographical visualizations were produced focusing on these home renters and the northern neighborhood’s likely transient residents, and geographical areas of these potentially transient home renters were identifi ed. With these specifi c areas identifi ed, it was recommended that the community partner, the City of Lafayette, focus resources on eff orts of retention and revitalization in these specifi c areas of the northern neighborhoods of Lafayette.","PeriodicalId":30386,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91162668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bacteriophages can provide unique insight about viral evolution because of their abundance and largely unexplored history. Traditionally, phylogenetic trees have used DNA sequence comparison to visualize evolutionary paths between organisms. However, DNA sequence similarity does not refl ect key alterations to protein structure and therefore how the protein performs its function. Phylogenetic trees based on predicted protein structure could provide an alternative lens through which to view evolutionary paths. From each of the 10 largest clusters included in the Actinobacteriophage Database, three mycobacteriophage genomes were selected. Lysin A and terminase proteins are encoded by all of the mycobacteriophage genomes and were therefore selected for analysis. Protein structural predictions were generated from amino acid sequences using Phyre2 and compared with the PyMol Molecular Graphics System, Version 2.0. Structural alignment scores from PyMol were used to quantify the structural homology of lysin A and terminase across diff erent clusters. Five phylogenetic trees were constructed: one was based on structural homology of lysin A, one was based on structural homology of terminase, two were based on amino acid sequence of these individual proteins, and one was based on overall genomic sequence alignment. Phylogenetic trees were compared to evaluate diff erences between amino acid sequence and structural homology. Visualizing the predicted relationships from amino acid sequences and structural analysis of phage proteins will provide a new perspective on the evolution of the virosphere.","PeriodicalId":30386,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72595305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increased price raised concerns that the potentially lifesaving drug may not be prescribed to patients. The objective of this project is to develop a new end-to-end manufacturing process that enables the in-house manufacturing of Lomustine. The poster aims to determine key process parameters for a liquid-liquid extraction unit operation. The hypothesis for the unit operation is that a minimum impurity profile can be achieved in the organic phase of continuous-flow liquid-liquid extraction by varying critical process parameters. This profile was determined by implementing solvent selection, designing a conducive design of experiments, and analyzing the experimental results with high-pressure liquid chromatography. The process was repeated and edited to accommodate learnings through the experiments conducted. Partition coefficient calculated experimentally showed the best value at 0.36. The percentage of extraction of impurities was also calculated at 82%, which showcased a clear decrease in the impurity of the main process stream. The researchers anticipate that with a purer product stream, the manufacturing process will have less byproduct formation.","PeriodicalId":30386,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research","volume":"89 sup1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81274078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
