Title: Quantification of Vascular Permeability in the Retina Using Fluorescein Videoangiography Data as a Biomarker for Early Diabetic Retinopathy

Show moreDiabetic retinopathy, which is the most common reason for blindness in the working-age population, affects over one-third of those who have had diabetes for over ten years. High blood sugar level (hyperglycemia) in the blood damages blood vessels and tight junction at the blood-retinal barrier (BRB). Chronic inflammation leads to changes in vascular health, and over time blood vessels tend to get damaged and exhibit higher “leakage” or permeability. In the late stage of DR, hemorrhages can occur, leading to irreversible damage of neuronal tissue in the retina and vision loss. In the clinic, there are some biomarkers and imaging modalities used to diagnose DR based on some of the more severe products of DR (e.g., hemorrhage), but there is no non-invasive, highly sensitive method to detect diabetic retinopathy before clinical signs occur, when mitigating therapies could be more effective. In this thesis, indicator dilution theory was explored to modeling the temporal dynamics of fluorescein in the retina after intravenous injection, with an aim to quantitatively map subtle changes in retinal blood flow and vascular permeability that could preempt subsequent irreversible damage. Specifically, a simplified version of indicator dilution theory—namely the “adiabatic approximation in tissue homogeneity” (AATH) model—was used to estimate physiological parameters such as the blood flow (F) and the extraction fraction (E: a parameter coupled with vascular permeability) from retinal fluorescein videoangiography data. The AATH fitting protocol was optimized through simulations using a more complex model (the AATH-vascular heterogeneity model, AATH-VH). It was determined that a two-step least square fitting method was more sensitive than a single-step least square fitting of AATH to simulated data to evaluate vascular permeability in early diabetic retinopathy. The optimized data analysis protocol was then evaluated in an initial clinical study comparing healthy control subjects to those with moderate non-proliferative DR. Volumetric blood flow and retinal vascular permeability maps were compared between patient groups with clear increases in extraction fraction observed in the mild NPDR patients compared to control. These promising early data have been the foundation to an ongoing 5 year study tracking 100 Diabetic patients with no DR so see if early changes in vascular permeability can predict which patients are more likely to progress to DR.

Title: Characterization and Migration of Silver Nanoparticles from Electron-Beam Irradiated Low-Density Polyethylene

Show morePolymer nanocomposites (PNCs) and engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) may find use in a wide range of commercial applications, including food and medical product packaging. Migration of nanofillers from polymer nanocomposites into food matrices could be a source of human dietary exposure to ENMs. Electron beam (e-beam) irradiation is a processing method used for microbial inactivation as well as for modifying properties of polymer films, such as stretch resistance and shrink tension. Process treatment of nanotechnology-based packaging materials either for sterilization or for strengthening of the polymer films may have a significant effect on the migration of ENMs into food matrices. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of e-beam irradiation treatments of LDPE containing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and the subsequent migration of AgNPs into a food simulant under intended use conditions. The study observes a correlation between e-beam irradiation dose quantity and the release of AgNPs into a food simulant.

Show moreIn today’s data-driven world, data outsourcing has grown, increasing the importance of data security and privacy. Data encryption, while providing some protection, is insufficient against side-channel attacks such as access pattern leakage. This thesis focuses on designing and optimizing efficient oblivious access methods to enhance data security and privacy. Traditional solutions, like Oblivious RAM (ORAM), often impose significant overheads, limiting their market adoption. Our research proposes novel oblivious data access schemes tailored to specific applications, systems, and contexts. This approach enables us to identify critical vulnerabilities and performance bottlenecks, and balance performance, security, and other relevant parameters. In this thesis, I present four published works in Chapters 3 to 6, demonstrating the effectiveness of my proposed methods: (1) optimizing Ring ORAM for multi-channel memory systems, (2) introducing a multi-range supported ORAM for locality-aware applications, (3) proposing an oblivious data access solution for NVM hybrid memory systems, and (4) developing an oblivious access method for deep neural networks (DNNs), ensuring privacy without sacrificing performance. These contributions address unique challenges across application domains, enhancing data security and privacy in contemporary computing systems. This thesis provides a comprehensive investigation of targeted oblivious access methods, highlighting the benefits of the proposed designs, and contributing to more effective solutions for access pattern leakage mitigation, ultimately improving data security and privacy in contemporary computing systems.
