- Accuracy of 3D printed Models vs Traditional Stone Models.
- Abstract/Description
-
3D models are an essential device used in various fields of dentistry. Dental models are used for the fabrication of crowns, dentures, orthodontic treatments, and surgical equipment. Traditionally, 3D models are created from gypsum stone. However, 3D printed resin may provide a higher degree of precision and ease of sharing between professionals. Multiple studies have confirmed the accuracy of the Trios 3Shape 3D scanner, but few studies provide information on the reliability of 3D printers....
Show more3D models are an essential device used in various fields of dentistry. Dental models are used for the fabrication of crowns, dentures, orthodontic treatments, and surgical equipment. Traditionally, 3D models are created from gypsum stone. However, 3D printed resin may provide a higher degree of precision and ease of sharing between professionals. Multiple studies have confirmed the accuracy of the Trios 3Shape 3D scanner, but few studies provide information on the reliability of 3D printers. The purpose of this study is to determine the dimensional accuracy of 3D printed models for future application in dental and orthodontic treatments. Four anonymous participants received an alginate impression and 3D dental scans on the upper and lower dental arches for a resulting sample size of n=4. Prints were made from a Form Labs Form 2 3D printer and an Anycubic Photon 3D printer. These prints, as well as the gypsum model resulting from the alginate impression, were designated specific dental markers in which measurements were taken. Graphs of width and height were constructed after data analysis on Excel. There were no statistically different measurements between models of the same patient. Expected statistical differences were seen between patients, due to being different samples, which helped to validate the width and height measurements as statistically sound. This indicates that the measurements taken from stone models are as accurate as the 3D printed models. 3D printed models would be beneficial for cost reduction for orthodontic treatment and provide immediate surgical guides or dental study models.

- Structural Evaluation of the Optic Nerve Head.
- Abstract/Description
-
Precise morphological evaluation of the optic nerve head is essential to accurately diagnose glaucoma, especially in diverse patient populations. Interpretation of the physical structure of the optic nerve head includes optic disc size, cup to disc ratio, vertical disc diameter and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness. I hypothesize that there are subtle differences in the optic nerve head appearance based on age, gender, race and refractive error that can predict an increased likelihood of...
Show morePrecise morphological evaluation of the optic nerve head is essential to accurately diagnose glaucoma, especially in diverse patient populations. Interpretation of the physical structure of the optic nerve head includes optic disc size, cup to disc ratio, vertical disc diameter and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness. I hypothesize that there are subtle differences in the optic nerve head appearance based on age, gender, race and refractive error that can predict an increased likelihood of glaucoma development and degree of irreversible vision loss. Detailed measurements of the optic nerve head were taken using advanced imaging technology called an optical coherence tomography (OCT). Data were analyzed using regression analysis to determine potential correlations between the impact of the physical characteristics of the optic nerve with the development of glaucoma. Individual variables were compared using ANOVA. On average, subjects with high myopia included in the study were shown to have larger disc areas than those with mild to moderate myopia and have an increased risk of developing glaucoma. In addition, patients with a positive family history of glaucoma are more likely to develop advanced versions of the disease.

- Does Sleeping Position Negatively Affect Eyelid Laxity?.
- Abstract/Description
-
Eyelid laxity is a condition where the eyelid connective tissue loses elasticity, which leads to malposition of the lids and ocular surface discomfort. An increase in eyelid laxity can occur with age and environmental factors. Patients were selected randomly from a general optometric practice with an age range of 20-85 years. Exclusion criteria included facial nerve palsy and a history of eyelid surgery or trauma. Patients were asked about their sleeping position, smoking history, UV exposure...
Show moreEyelid laxity is a condition where the eyelid connective tissue loses elasticity, which leads to malposition of the lids and ocular surface discomfort. An increase in eyelid laxity can occur with age and environmental factors. Patients were selected randomly from a general optometric practice with an age range of 20-85 years. Exclusion criteria included facial nerve palsy and a history of eyelid surgery or trauma. Patients were asked about their sleeping position, smoking history, UV exposure regarding occupation/hobby, and skin type was graded according to the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale. Patients’ eyelids and equipment were cleaned and prepared for eyelid laxity measurements. A Blephometer was used to measure the distance of the lower eyelid from the globe using a small color scale that represented two-millimeter (mm) increments. Eyelid laxity was graded according to a customary scale; grade 1: 0 - 1.9 mm; grade 2: 2.0 - 3.9 mm; grade 3: 4 - 9 mm; and grade 4: > 9mm. In addition, patient sleeping side and other demographics were examined to find a correlation of increased eyelid laxity. Patients display a link between the side on which they usually sleep and the laxity of their lower eyelid.

- Trans Fats and Metabolic Syndrome.
- Abstract/Description
-
Two issues affecting health today are metabolic syndrome and trans fats. Metabolic syndrome is a common condition that has no single known cause. Trans fats are fatty acids that can be artificially made and added to food, or can naturally occur in ruminant-derived foods. There has been speculation that metabolic syndrome and trans fats are correlated. Studies indicate both positive and negative correlations between metabolic syndrome and the consumption of trans fats.

- Impact of Apolipoprotein E Epsilon 4 in Brain Injuries of Boxers.
- Abstract/Description

Through research done on causes of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a link has been made between the amyloid-beta protein and the APOE ε4 allele. Not only do they play a major role in leading to AD, they also result in an increased risk of brain injury. Looking at studies done on patients with traumatic brain injuries, with an emphasis on injuries received while boxing, the possibility exists that having the APOE ε4 allele can lead to being more at risk for having a traumatic brain injury...

Looking at studies done on patients with traumatic brain injuries, with an emphasis on injuries received while boxing, the possibility exists that having the APOE ε4 allele can lead to being more at risk for having a traumatic brain injury than non-carriers. Currently, there is no screening for the APOE ε4 allele in prospective athletes. The topic of potential screening should be further discussed as well as additional research done to be better equipped for educating the public on possible risks.

Show moreThe Smithsonian Marine Ecosystems Exhibit’s mission is, “To inspire appreciation and understanding of the importance and complexity of marine ecosystems and the process of science through engaging exhibits, meaningful education, and the dissemination of Smithsonian Marine Station research.” Starting from the bottom of the food web, the exhibit recreates habitats for their resident organisms. Healthy phytoplankton cultures feed the oysters’ and their reefs’ filter feeding inhabitants like feather duster worms, sponges, and tunicates. Phytoplankton also plays a key role in maintaining water quality by consuming nitrates and phosphorous. This project focused on and tested different light sources in order to maximize phytoplankton production. Successful maintenance of Isochrysis galbana made it possible to replicate and thoroughly test phytoplankton production in relation to the light spectrum. Nannochloropsis oculata and Chaetocerous gracilis were unsustainable and must be further assessed for harmful cellular organisms specific to these species, contamination, and other variables that may be attributing to cell culture crashing.

- Does Obesity Contribute to Poor Eyelid Laxity?.
- Abstract/Description
-
Eyelid laxity is a clinical term, which refers to the lower and/or upper eyelids containing less elastin and collagen than normal, thus appearing loose and droopy. This condition causes irritation, excessive tearing, and redness that may contribute to dry eye syndrome. Many factors are believed to cause eyelid laxity, such as smoking and excessive sun exposure. A study was conducted to see whether a high body mass index (BMI) was a factor in eyelid laxity. This study focused on subjects’ age...

This condition causes irritation, excessive tearing, and redness that may contribute to dry eye syndrome. Many factors are believed to cause eyelid laxity, such as smoking and excessive sun exposure. A study was conducted to see whether a high body mass index (BMI) was a factor in eyelid laxity. This study focused on subjects’ age ranging between 20-85 years old. Each subject lacked visible facial nerve palsy and eyelid trauma that can influence accurate laxity measurements. It was unknown if patients had previous eyelid surgery, which may also affect measurements due to laxity correction. Upon acquiring consent, a Blephometer was prepared for taking eyelid measurements. Fluress was instilled in the patients’ eyes to temporarily numb them, and eyelid measurements were observed and recorded. Preliminary data indicated that eyelid laxity measurements of patients with a higher BMI were significantly worse than patients with a healthy BMI.

In addition to the campus being built and expanded extra staff and faculty were needed. The school took $360,000 to finish building after the campus was cleaned up from construction they let students in. This artifact is important to local researchers because this campus opened right in our own backyard. It is a great location historians could come teach or learn about the surrounding community. This is highly significant to the community because it is a new campus for students to come to instead of having to go to Ft. Pierce.

A woman named Fonda Doane, despite the author's emphasis on her feminine qualities, becomes the first woman to graduate from IRCC Policy Academy dominated by men. In spite of her being an outlier in class, she enjoyed it with some embarrassing moments and dirty jokes. In 1972, only 2% of all police officers and sheriffs across America were females. Female police officers in the 1970s experienced gender stereotypes and sexual harassment. There were some who battled hard to earn their respect which shined a light upon them to encourage more women to become officers. In 1973, a woman named Fonda Doane became the first woman to graduate from IRJC Police Academy despite the stereotypes and sexist comments. With her and other brave police officers being an example, hopefully, more will pursue this career soon. Now the percentage of females in the force is 13% which is not a drastic boost, but it is improving.Summary written by Malik Girondin, in Dr. Carrigan's AMH 2020 H2SL (Honors/Service Learning).

Show moreThis issue of the Pioneer Press includes the article "The Teetotoalling Days are Over". This article manly focuses the viewpoint of the draw backs of drinking whether or not the user is underage. The Author also stresses the fact that there is a need to raise the drinking age across the whole country in order to try and prevent under age citizens from drive from one state to another one whose legal drinking age is lower. This was all in the attempt to decrease the number of fatal car crashes across and within state boundaries. This is historically significant due to the fact that thought the early 70s and all the way till the late 90s there was a big push to raise the drinking age in all states across the country. This was due to the fact that the number of fatal car accidents were at an all time high. This movement to try to reduce the number of fatal crashes became a issue on the national stage in the early 1980. Mothers against Drunk Driving, which was created on September 5, 1980 in California, sought to spread awareness across both the United States and Canada of the dangers of drunk driving as well as driving under the influence of other drugs.

Show moreThis Pioneer Post (also known as Pioneer Press) edition contains articles about student life, local performances, and sports scores. Articles of note include:- An editorial, produced by a former IRJC student, tackles a conspiracy theory regarding Paul McCartney. Rumors circling his death have incited an investigation to determine if The Beatles member is still alive. Due to the immense following The Beatles have acquired during this time period, many young adults have devoted their time to coming up with conclusions. In the 1960s, The Beatles became an international sensation that appealed to young Americans (particularly young women). Their fame led to many obsessive followers creating rumors about their personal lives. One rumor in particular circled around the possible death of Paul McCartney. People began to vigorously search for clues that could indicate a “deceased Paul” in The Beatle’s music, causing a frenzy. Multiple conspiracy theories emerged including hidden messages in songs played backwards, symbolism in their album artwork, etc. This popularity reflected how influential The Beatles were during this time period where young Americans were rebellious towards traditional authority. This also shows how it is human nature to want simplistic answers that match our own worldviews.
- An opinion editorial, written by former IRJC student, Cary Brunswick, discusses a debate between the use of alcohol and marijuana during this time. Alcohol was widely accepted on college campuses, while marijuana use created controversy. Brunswick also talks about the effects each substance has on the human body, and calls for an "evaluation of judgement". Throughout the 1960s, many Americans began to experiment with new drugs such as marijuana and hallucinogens. Marijuana use was heavily criticized for its effects on the human body (and on human behavior). Since the 1960s was a time when young Americans rebelled against authority and the Vietnam War, marijuana use became more popular. The debate, which still stands today, poses the question: is marijuana really that much worse than alcohol?
- "Are You a Hippie?" An opinion editorial, written by former IRJC student Cary Brunswick, discusses what it means to be a "beatnik hippie". The article attempts to identify the difference between hippie behavior and hippie style. In the 1960s, the “hippie movement” emerged as a result of rebellion against social norms (especially due to American involvement in Vietnam). Hippies followed their own beliefs and ideals. Some of these ideals included shifting the media’s focus from “minute” issues (such as cleanliness and personal hygiene) to larger societal problems (including poverty, racial discrimination, law enforcement, etc.). Hippies were nonconformists in their thinking, their “free” and often rebellious lifestyles, and their protests against traditional American culture.

This brings many people together with their many of their own worked on piece of work like costumes. The article "Indian Occupy IRCC" could be important to a local or national researcher, because it could help out a researcher who is studying or wants information on Indian Hobbyist who was a part of these traditional Pow Wows. There were many different groups that have been organizing all around Florida. Today Pow Wow are held in Fort Pierce, Florida. the association are having 54th annual gathering and still can take apart of the event. This could also help out researchers on what Native Americans do in these ceremonies and give a better understanding.
