Abstract:
Over the past decade, the Latino population in North Carolina has increased 111%. More than half of North Carolina Latinos are foreign-born and most face issues related to immigration, acculturation, and often, discrimination. This article provides a brief overview of the historical context in which social workers engaged with immigrant communities, and argues that the profession brings strengths and unique skills to address North Carolina’s Latino immigrant population, historically, and within the current context. Key social demographics of Latino populations, sociopolitical realities, as well as theoretical and methodological issues related to the complex needs of this diverse population group are addressed. Two examples of Latino vulnerability in North Carolina, HIV/AIDS and discriminatory local immigration enforcement practices, are discussed to further highlight the unique strengths and challenges social workers in North Carolina and the New South face when working with Latino immigrants.

Abstract:
During the past 15 years, immigration enforcement increased dramatically in the U.S. interior. There is a growing recognition that immigration enforcement in the U.S. interior has spillover effects onto U.S. citizens. I examine the impacts of a type of partnership between Immigration and Customs Enforcement and local law enforcement, 287(g) programs, on school engagement within North Carolina. In North Carolina, nine counties were approved to establish 287(g) programs, and another 15 applied but were not approved to participate. I use a triple difference strategy in which I compare educational outcomes for different groups of students in these two sets of counties before and after activation of 287(g) programs between 2003/2004 and 2012/2013. I find that 287(g) programs decrease school engagement by decreasing attendance. This effect appears to be driven by increabes in chronic absenteeism (missing 15 or more days per year).

Abstract:
We examine how increased Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities impacted newborn health and prenatal care utilization in North Carolina around the time Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act was first being implemented within the state. Focusing on administrative data between 2004 and 2006, we conduct difference-in-differences and triple-difference case-control regression analysis. Pregnancies were classified by levels of potential exposure to immigration enforcement depending on parental nativity and educational attainment. Contrast groups were foreign-born parents residing in nonadopting counties and all US-born non-Hispanic parents. The introduction of the program was estimated to decrease birth weight by 58.54 grams (95% confidence interval [CI], −83.52 to −33.54) with effects likely following from reduced intrauterine growth. These results are shown to coexist with a worsening in the timing of initiation and frequency of prenatal care received. Since birth outcomes influence health, education, and earnings trajectories, our findings suggest that the uptick in ICE activities can have large socioeconomic costs over US-born citizens.

Abstract:
How does local law enforcement, with the aid of city and county governments, respond to racialized immigrant threat through policy implementation, namely, through adoption of intergovernmental agreements? More specifically, how is this response tailored for Latino immigrant communities, particularly in new destination communities? Across the country, scholars, activists, and politicians note the increasing use of local law enforcement to implement federal immigration enforcement measures through intergovernmental agreements, emphasizing the disproportionate impact on the Latino, more specifically the foreign-born Mexican, population. One such intergovernmental partnership is the 287(g) agreement between local law enforcement and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Yet little is known about the process through which counties adopt, implement, and maintain such intergovernmental partnerships and the state actors that make it all possible.

Abstract:
Disease gene fine mapping is an important task in human genetic research. Association analysis is becoming a primary approach for localizing disease loci, especially when abundant SNPs are available due to the well improved genotyping technology during the last decades. Despite the rapid improvement of detection ability, there are many limitations of association strategy. In this dissertation, we focused on three different topics including haplotype similarity based test, association test incorporating genotyping error and simulation tool for large data set. 1) Previous haplotype similarity based tests donât have the ability to incorporate covariates in the test. In chapter 2, we proposed a new association method based on haplotype similarity that incorporates covariates and utilizes maximum amount of data information. We found that our method gives power improvement when neither LD nor allele frequency is too low and is comparable under other scenarios. 2) In chapter 3, we proposed a new strategy that incorporates the genotyping uncertainty to assess the association between traits and SNPs. Extensive simulation studies for case-control designs demonstrated that intensity information based association test can reduce the impact induced by genotyping error. 3) In chapter 4, we described simulation software, SimuGeno, which is used to simulate large scale genomic data for case-control association studies.

Abstract:
Multiple disease susceptibility alleles, genotype errors, or missing genotype data can create problems when testing for association between alleles or genotypes at a genetic marker and a dichotomous phenotype. I used likelihood methods to study the impact of each of these factors on detecting association. In the presence of multiple disease susceptibility alleles, I found that power of the likelihood ratio test (LRT) declines less when based on haplotypes made up of tightly linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) than when based on individual SNPs. The result suggests that statistical methods based on haplotypes may be useful to identify and locate complex disease genes. Genotype errors can lead to excess type I error in nuclear family (case-parents) studies when errors resulting in Mendelian inconsistent families are corrected but other errors remain in the data. I developed a LRT for single SNPs or haplotypes that incorporates nuisance parameters for genotype errors and showed that type I error rate can be controlled at little cost to power. For nuclear family data in which missing parents and additional siblings create a diversity of family structures, I developed a unified approach to computing LRT power for a test of association. Comparison of LRT power with power of a family-based association test showed that LRT has greater power.

Abstract:
Disease-gene fine-mapping is an important task in human genetics. Linkage and association analyses are the two main approaches for exploring disease susceptibility genes. In Chapter 1, we introduce the development of methods for disease-gene mapping in the past decades and present the rationale behind our new method development. Family-based association analyses have provided powerful tools for disease-gene mapping. The Association in the Presence of Linkage test (APL), a family-based association method, can use nuclear families with multiple affected siblings and infer missing parental genotypes properly in the linkage region. In Chapter 2, we generalized and extended APL so that it can be applied to general nuclear family structures using a bootstrap variance estimator. Unlike the original APL that can handle at most two affected siblings, the new APL can handle up to three affected siblings. We also extended APL from a single-marker test to a multiple-marker haplotype analysis. According to our simulations, the new APL has a correct type I error rate and more power than other family-based association methods such as PDT, FBAT/HBAT, and PDTPHASE in nuclear families with missing parents. The robustness of APL when there are rare alleles or haplotypes and when there is population substructure such that the allele frequencies in the population deviated from the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) assumption was also examined in Chapter 2. Genes on the X chromosome play a role in many common diseases. Linkage analyses have identified regions on the X chromosome with high linkage peaks for several diseases. Currently there are few family-based association methods available for X-chromosome markers. In order to fill in this gap, we proposed a novel family-based association method, X-APL, in Chapter 3. X-APL is a modification of APL and shares some important properties with APL. X-APL can also perform haplotype analyses, which is the only family-based test of association we are aware of for testing haplotypes for the X-chromosome markers. Our simulation results showed that X-APL has a correct type I error rate and has more power than other family-based association methods for X chromosome such as XS-TDT, XPDT and XMCPDT for single-marker analysis in nuclear families. The robustness of X-APL when there are deviations of genotype frequencies from HWE was also examined in Chapter 3. Linkage and family-based association analyses are often applied simultaneously in the same data in order to maximize use of family data sets. However, it is not intuitively clear under what conditions association and linkage tests performed in the same data set may be correlated. In Chapter 4, we used computer simulations and theoretical statements to estimate the correlation between linkage statistics (affected sib pair maximum LOD scores) and family-based association statistics (PDT and APL) under various hypotheses. Different types of pedigrees were studied: nuclear families with affected sib pairs, extended pedigrees and incomplete pedigrees. Both simulation and theoretical results showed that when there is either no linkage or no association, the linkage and association statistics are not correlated. When there is linkage and association in the data, the two tests have a positive correlation.

Abstract:
To better understand issues of congruity between the North Carolina Association of Educators (NCAE) and its teacher membership, this study surveyed a sample of NCAEâs membership about issues related to curriculum and instruction. The research reported here utilized a model (exchange theory) that makes a distinction between voluntary membership organizations and non-voluntary membership organizations. The survey sampled 263 NCAE teacher members. Descriptive statistics, ANOVAs, and content analysis addressed three specific questions about congruity of positions taken by NCAE on curriculum and instruction issues and the beliefs of NCAE members. Results suggest NCAE members hold views very congruent with NCAE leadership. The importance of making distinctions between teacher views in non-bargaining states is a major implication of the findings.

Full text
Abstract:
North Carolina has, in recent decades, experienced significant growth in its Latinx, and more particularly Mexican immigrant population. As a traditionally non-Latinx state, or a state without a long-standing, large Latinx population, many communities and healthcare and service providers within North Carolina still lack knowledge, resources, and skills needed to serve and support Latinx immigrant populations well. Guided by interpretive description, this qualitative study on Mexican immigrant women in Western North Carolina sought to gain knowledge and understanding of what it is like for them to live in a traditionally non-Latinx region and how immigration has affected their well-being. Asking about experiences in the context of immigration as a way of learning about well-being was inspired by scholars who have asserted immigration to be an important determinant of health and well-being and significant life experience. Individual interviews with 12 Mexican immigrant women generated five themes: 1) Difference and Disruption, 2) Losing to Gain, 3) Living with Risks and Limitations, 4) From Lost to Found, and 5) Resilience and Adaptation. Together these themes highlight sacrifices and struggles, strengths and resources, and gains and hope that have affected these women’s well-being and paint an overall picture of resilience and adaptation in spite of losses, difficulties, risks, and limitations incurred by immigrating. These findings argue for use of a strengths-based approach when interacting with Mexican immigrant women to improve healthcare and other services and promote their well-being and integration in their NC communities.

Abstract:
Determining the level of belief one has in themselves, or their self-efficacy, can be a key factor to improve certain dietary patterns and choices in the rural youth population. Sugar sweetened food and beverage consumption continues to rise and fruit and vegetable intake remains a struggle in rural areas; addressing both the food environment and adolescents’ self-efficacy could have a lasting impact on changing the nature of a generation of rural student’s food and beverage choices. This study measured self-efficacy levels of (n=425) adolescents in rural Kentucky and North Carolina using the Youth Impact Questionnaire and dietary intake using the NHANES Dietary Screener. Multiple linear regression analysis found that higher levels of self-efficacy resulted in a statistically significant ability to consume more vegetables. Further associations found that higher levels of self-efficacy resulted in increased fruit consumption, and improved added sugar food and beverage selections. These findings suggest that it could be beneficial to target adolescents’ self-efficacy as a way to modify certain health behaviors in a sparse food environment such as these rural Appalachian areas.

Abstract:
This study, based on the Interactive Acculturation Model, investigates the acculturation orientations of undergraduates (n=279) in South Korea. Results show that Korean respondents considered South-East Asian immigrants to be less valued than Western immigrants. They were more welcoming towards ‘valued’ Western immigrants than they were towards ‘devalued’ South-East Asian immigrants. As in the case of undergraduates in North America & Europe, Korean undergraduates mainly endorsed integration and individualism towards both Western and South-East Asian immigrants, but they also strongly endorsed the segregationist orientations towards both ‘valued’ and ‘devalued’ immigrants reflecting the still contentious view of Korea as an immigration country.

Abstract:
The article examines issues related to the integration of foreigners in the Republic of Moldova. Reforms, visa liberalization, and the conclusion of bilateral agreements on migration and/or social protection of migrants have made the country attractive for immigration not only from traditional CIS countries but also from Asia, Africa, and North America. As a result, greater attention needs to be paid to the cultural and socio-economic integration policies of immigrants in the Republic of Moldova. This article provides an overview of existing forms of immigrant integration (assimilation, multiculturalism, social and economic integration), analyzes the dynamics and key characteristics of immigration flows into the country over the last three decades, and offers a brief overview of national policies in this area. The article provides a brief overview of the situation of immigrants in the country and the level of their integration, addressing issues such as education and knowledge of the state language, immigrants' access to the national education and healthcare systems, and their employment/economic activities. The effectiveness of the policies implemented is also discussed, including the conditions and opportunities for immigrants to obtain Moldovan citizenship, their relationship with the local population, and mechanisms to prevent discrimination based on ethnic or cultural characteristics. Additionally, the article examines the socio-economic and demographic conditions for the development of a national integration policy in the context of the implementation of European directives as part of the Association Agreement and the country's status as a candidate for EU membership. The analysis shows that despite the positive national policy being implemented, there is a need for modernizing existing approaches to the integration of foreigners.

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk association related to periodontal disease and breast cancer performing a prospective case-matched control study. Methodology: It was a prospective controlled study, performed to evaluate the possible association with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and breast cancer. The Institutional Board for Ethics in Research approved the study (CAAE: 08989019.9.0000.5437). This case–control was designed as a 1:1 propensity study that included 64 volunteers with breast cancer before treatment and 64 women volunteers with no cancer. The cases and matched controls were recruited from the Barretos Cancer Hospital. For matching, cases and controls were matched by age, income of families, education, and smoking status (considered former smoker or current smoker). All of the patients interviewed participated voluntarily and signed an informed consent form. For both groups, women, over 40 years old, have at least 17 teeth, no history of familial breast cancer, no prior cancer, and no history of breast cancer in the family. For the case group, patients with breast cancer diagnosis and who knew about their breast cancer diagnosis were included. For the control group, patients without cancer diagnosis and normal mammographic examination, or if altered, the final finding, showing the absence of neoplasm or risk for breast cancer, were included. For data collection of periodontal parameters, the instrument available in the online version through the website Periodontalchart-online.com/pt developed by the University of Bern, Switzerland, was used. Periodontal indices were measured with the aid of a model periodontal probe from the University of North Carolina. PD indices were considered according to the parameters described by the American Academy of Periodontology Results: A total of 128 research participants were included in the study, in two groups, 64 participants without cancer (control group) and 64 patients with breast cancer (case group). The groups were similar related to age, income, education, and smoking. Evaluating oral health parameters, the groups were different. Case groups were associated with better related to the frequency of tooth brushing per day and daily mouthwash uses but worse oral parameters evaluated by mean plaque index, blending on probing, and periodontal probing depth. PD was significantly associated with BC for all case definitions (p <0.001). In the multivariable analysis, periodontitis was significantly associated with breast cancer in a sample of severe and moderate periodontitis. Women diagnosed with moderate periodontitis have four times higher odds of having breast cancer than women without periodontitis. Women with severe periodontitis have 10 times higher odds of having breast cancer. Conclusion: There is a possible increased risk of breast cancer diagnosis in women with active PD when compared with women without PD. Researchers have developed studies with the referred objective as an alternative to carry out the prevention of pathologies through an important oral health action. New studies need to be carried out to corroborate the findings to formulate public health policies.
