Mobilising Finance for Biodiversity: A policy and institutional review of finance arrangements for biodiversity conservation in Ireland
(2021)
Mc Guinness, Shane; Bullock, Craig
Abstract:
This Policy and Institutional Review (PIR) for Ireland is intended to characterise biodiversity spending and the context in which it is made. It examines direct spending and indirect spending in areas of environmental protection. It also looks at the extent to which Government Departments and Agencies consider biodiversity in their core policies, whether the sectors for which they have responsibility are supported by biodiversity and ecosystem services, and whether some of their policies conflict with biodiversity. The PIR complements the national biodiversity expenditure review (NBER) undertaken in 2017 and will inform the financial needs assessment now being undertaken to determine thetype of expenditure needed to implement the National Biodiversity Action Plan 2021-2025, along with the question of how to mobilise these resources.

Quantitative analysis of weakly bound insulin oligomers in solution using polarized multidimensional fluorescence spectroscopy
(2021)
Casamayou-Boucau, Yannick; Ryder, Alan G.
Abstract:
Being able to measure the size and distribution of oligomers in solution is a critical issue in the manufacture and stability of insulin and other protein formulations. Measuring oligomers reliably can however be complicated, due to their fragile self-assembled structures, which are held together by weak forces. This can cause issues in chromatographic based methods, where dissociation or re-equilibration of oligomer populations can occur e.g. upon dilution in a different eluting buffer, but also for light scattering based methods like dynamic light scattering (DLS) where the size difference involved (often less than a factor 3) does not allow mixtures of oligomers to be resolved. Intrinsic fluorescence offers an attractive alternative as it is non-invasive, sensitive but also because it contains scattered light when implemented via excitation emission matrix (EEM) measurements, that is sensitive to changes in particle size. Here, using insulin at formulation level concentrations, w...

Review of claudin proteins as potential biomarkers for necrotizing enterocolitis
(2021)
Griffiths, Victoria; Al Assaf, Niazy; Khan, Rizwan
Abstract:
Background Claudin proteins are a component of tight junctions found in cell-cell adhesion complexes. A central feature of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is intestinal permeability, with changes to claudin proteins potentially contributing to intestinal instability, inflammation, and the progression of NEC. A current area of interest is the development of a novel, noninvasive biomarker for the detection of NEC in neonates at risk of developing this disease, in order to reduce morbidity and mortality through earlier intervention. Aims This review aims to explore the relevance of claudin proteins in the pathophysiology of NEC and their potential usefulness as a biomarker. Methods This review was conducted using the search terms “claudin” + “necrotizing enterocolitis”, with 27 papers selected for review. Results Claudin proteins appear to have a role in the stability of the gut epithelium through the regulation of intestinal permeability, maturity, and inflammation. Formula feeding ha...

Science Communication: Stakeholder perceptions of Real-time Incentive Fisheries Management
(2021)
Pedreschi, D.; Vigier, A.; Höffle, H.; Kraak, S.B.M.; Reid, D.G.
Abstract:
In these changing times, with political and environmental uncertainty surrounding us, fisheries management needs to become more adaptive in order to respond to the changes in our natural environment and changing management frameworks. Based on close to real-time information updates, and harnessing modern technology, Real-Time Incentive (RTI) fisheries management is designed to evolve with the fish stocks, enabling managers to respond more quickly and efficiently to management issues as they arise. Through the use of a credit system that makes use of regularly updated fine-scale information, incentives can be incorporated as rewards to encourage desirable actions such as data collection or ‘fishing-for-litter’ activities. However, in order for a new system such as this to be useful and become accepted, stakeholders must be involved in the development and design process. This paper details the consultative process carried out with Irish demersal fishery stakeholders in an effort to i...

A qualitative exploration of the benefits of and the barriers to volunteering for migrants
(2020)
Dressel, Nichola
Abstract:
The objectives of this research were to complete a review of relevant Irish and international literature in order to inform the researcher of possible benefits of and barriers to volunteering for migrants. The objectives of this research were to build upon existing literature and highlight any gaps in the literature by conducting semi-structured interviews with five migrants, who are currently in or have completed a volunteering role. Therefore, this research explores such benefits of voluntary work on migrants and also explores some of the barriers that prevent them from partaking in voluntary work, from the migrants’ perspectives.

An exploratory study of the peer support worker role within a multi-disciplinary mental health team: multiple perspectives in an Irish context
(2018)
O'Dwyer O'Brien, Aisling
Abstract:
Introduction: Peer Support Workers (PSWrs) are employed in mental health services with the purpose of supporting service users by utilizing their own personal experience of mental health difficulties. The introduction of a new role into an existing team or to complement an existing care pathway constitutes a complex intervention, for which systematic feasibility and piloting work in both development and evaluation are a necessity. Objectives: The aim of the study was to explore and compare the views and experiences of PSWrs, Supervisors, and Mental Health Professionals (MHPs) in relation to the employment of PSWrs in 4 mental health services in Ireland. Methodology: The overall research design aimed to collect information and draw conclusions for the future employment of PSWrs within statutory mental health services. Each participant group took part in a semi-structured interview (PSWrs: 4; Supervisors: 2; MHPs: 6) yielding a total of 12 interviews. Thematic analysis was conducted a...

Staff experiences of applying a social pedagogical intervention within a residential childcare setting in Ireland
(2017)
Breen, Emma
Abstract:
Introduction: Social pedagogy is a discipline underpinning direct work with young people and families across Europe. The concept of social pedagogy is ambiguous and diverse. Due to its complexity, it is difficult to generalise about this framework. Social pedagogy is expressed in various national traditions formed by country-specific social, political, economic and cultural conditions. A significant interest in the concept has arisen in residential childcare settings in the United Kingdom (UK) of late and more recently within Ireland. There is a noticeable dearth of research focusing on how social pedagogy has been adapted and experienced by staff working within children’s residential settings in the Irish context. Method: Using a qualitative lens, eleven residential staff members from one organisation, based within the mid-west region of Ireland, were interviewed. The research aimed to illuminate staff experiences and the nuances of these experiences. Results: A thematic analysis a...

Abstract:
Outcome 5 of the Irish Better Outcomes, Brighter Futures national youth policy framework ( Connected, respected, and contributing to their world ) offers a suitable way to study psychosocial determinants of adolescent health. The present study (1) provides nationally representative data on how 15- to 17-year-olds score on these indicators; (2) compares sexual minority (same- and both-gender attracted youth) with their non-minority peers. We analyzed data from 3354 young people (aged 15.78 ± 0.78 years) participating in the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study in Ireland. Age and social class were associated with the indicators only to a small extent, but girls were more likely than boys to report discrimination based on gender and age. Frequency of positive answers ranged from 67% (feeling comfortable with friends) to 12% (being involved in volunteer work). Sexual minority youth were more likely to feel discriminated based on sexual orientation, age, and gender. Bot...

Male victims of intimate partner violence: a mixed methods exploration
(2020)
O'Connor, Garrett
Abstract:
Introduction: Forty-five years of research points to gender symmetry in the experience of Intimate Partner Violence and Abuse (IPVA). Despite this, there is a recognised paucity of research exploring the male experience of surviving abuse within a heterosexual relationship. This study sought to address this by exploring the male experience of IPVA from preconceptions through to help-seeking and future plans. Methodology: Fifty-eight men who self-identified as survivors of IPVA completed a mixedmethods survey comprising open-ended and closed questions. A convergent mixed-methods design was used to quantify, describe, and interpret the data. Template analysis formed the basis of the qualitative analysis. Quantitative and qualitative data were integrated at the point of analysis. Results: The ages of the participants were normally distributed between 18 and 61+. Most participants were Irish, followed closely by English residents. Themes identified were preconceptions about IPVA; Experi...

Abstract:
Genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) are highly effective at identifying common risk variants for schizophrenia. Rare risk variants are also important contributors to schizophrenia etiology but, with the exception of large copy number variants, are difficult to detect with GWAS. Exome and genome sequencing, which have accelerated the study of rare variants, are expensive so alternative methods are needed to aid detection of rare variants. Here we re‐analyze an Irish schizophrenia GWAS dataset (n = 3,473) by performing identity‐by‐descent (IBD) mapping followed by exome sequencing of individuals identified as sharing risk haplotypes to search for rare risk variants in coding regions. We identified 45 rare haplotypes (>1 cM) that were significantly more common in cases than controls. By exome sequencing 105 haplotype carriers, we investigated these haplotypes for functional coding variants that could be tested for association in independent GWAS samples. We identified one rare m...

Abstract:
Almost a third of Irish children are now overweight and the country ranks 58th out of 200 countries for its proportion of overweight youths. With the rising obesity epidemic, and the impaired immune responses of this population, it is vital to understand the effects that obesity has on the immune system and to design future therapeutics, adjuvants and vaccines with overweight and obese populations in mind. Many current vaccines use adjuvants that have been found to be less effective at stimulating the immune response in children compared with adults and there is now substantial effort to design paediatric-focused adjuvants. Additionally, vaccine responses have been shown to be less effective in obese populations indicating that this is a particularly vulnerable population. We have recently identified cytosolic nucleic acids (CNAs), as novel candidate adjuvants for childhood vaccines. Here we investigated whether immune responses to these candidate adjuvants were adversely affected i...

Extending experiential learning in teacher professional development
(2016)
Tangney, Brendan; Girvan, Carina; Conneely, Claire
Abstract:
This paper introduces the use of experiential learning during the early stages of teacher professional development. Teachers observe student outcomes from the very beginning of the process and experience new pedagogical approaches as learners themselves before adapting and implementing them in their own classrooms. This research explores the implementation of this approach with teachers in Irish second level schools who are being asked to make significant pedagogic changes as part of a major curriculum reform. Teachers? self-reflections, observations and interviews demonstrate how the process and outcomes influenced their beliefs, resulting in meaningful changes in classroom practice.

Comparing the Usability and Acceptability of Wearable Sensors Among Older Irish Adults in a Real-World Context: Observational Study
(2021)
Keogh, Alison; Dorn, Jonas F.; Walsh, Lorcan; Calvo, Francesc; Caulfield, Brian
Abstract:
Background: Wearable devices are valuable assessment tools for patient outcomes in contexts such as clinical trials. To besuccessfully deployed, however, participants must be willing to wear them. Another concern is that usability studies are rarelypublished, often fail to test devices beyond 24 hours, and need to be repeated frequently to ensure that contemporary devices areassessed.Objective: This study aimed to compare multiple wearable sensors in a real-world context to establish their usability within anolder adult (>50 years) population.Methods: Eight older adults wore seven devices for a minimum of 1 week each: Actigraph GT9x, Actibelt, Actiwatch, Biovotion,Hexoskin, Mc10 Biostamp_RC, and Wavelet. Usability was established through mixed methods using semistructured interviewsand three questionnaires, namely, the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI), the System Usability Scale (SUS), and an acceptabilityquestionnaire. Quantitative data were reported descriptively and qualit...

A feasibility study of the Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDOTM-10) programme in an Irish context
(2021)
Fox, Jackie; Erlandsson, Lena-Karin; Shiel, Agnes
Abstract:
Despite high demand, mental health services in primary care in Ireland are underdeveloped. People with mild/moderate anxiety, depression and unspecified psychological distress are frequently seen in primary care settings, mostly by general practitioners (GPs). Occupational therapists have the potential to contribute to service-provision with interventions specially designed for the targeted group e.g. the Redesigning Daily Occupations programme (ReDO-10). This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a future RCT of the ReDO-10 programme in Ireland and the contextual factors that would influence future implementation. Using a multi-phase, mixed-method design, qualitative and quantitative data were gathered from key stakeholders: ReDO-10 participants (n¿=¿10), GPs (n¿=¿9) and occupational therapists (n¿=¿2). Acceptability, satisfaction, cultural fit and demand were explored, as well as methodological issues such as appropriateness of recruitment methods, outcome measures and randomi...

Abstract:
The objective of the current study was to examine phenotypic fertility performance and survival, and to gain insight into underlying factors that may contribute to greater fertility performance in 2 divergent genetic groups (GG) of Holstein-Friesian, selected using the Irish Economic Breeding Index (EBI). The GG were evaluated across 3 spring calving pasture-based feeding treatments (FT) over 4 yr. The 2 divergent GG were (1) high EBI; representative of the top 5% nationally (elite), and (2) EBI representative of the national average (NA). In each year, 90 elite and 45 NA cows were randomly allocated to 1 of 3 FT: control, lower grass allowance, and high concentrate. No interaction between GG and FT was observed for any of the measures of fertility investigated. The elite cows achieved significantly greater pregnancy rate to first service (+14.9 percentage points), and significantly greater pregnancy rates after 21, 42, and 84 d of breeding (+17.3, +15.2, and +9.6 percentage points,...

Estimating job creation potential of compliant WEEE pre-treatment in Ireland
(2021)
McMahon, Kathleen; Ryan-Fogarty, Yvonne; Fitzpatrick, Colin
Abstract:
While significant focus has been placed on the environmental and health impacts of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) treatment, a gap exists with respect to job creation in WEEE treatment. The creation of employment opportunities, and especially of decent work, is an important factor in the growing green and circular economies. This research investigates potential job creation in the Irish WEEE pre-treatment sector by examining the labour requirements at a certified e-recycling facility which conducts all necessary pre-treatment processes, as detailed in the WEEE Directive, and is currently treating 75% of Ireland’s WEEE. The study developed and executed a method of estimating the mass of WEEE associated with full-time job equivalencies per category treated. Through observation and measurement of the methods and time required for each of the pretreatment steps and using categorisations of WEEE established by United Nations University to assign weights per unit, it was...

The Bible and Empire in the Divided Korean Peninsula: In Search for a Theological Imagination for Just Peace
(2021)
Lim, Youngseop
Abstract:
The major objective of this thesis is to examine the relationship between biblical interpretation and imperialism in the context of the Korean conflict. This study takes its starting point in the questions of what caused the Korean conflict, and what role the Bible has played in the divided Korean church and society. In order to find answers to these questions, this study is carried out in several steps. The first step is to explore just peace and imperial peace in the Bible as a conceptual framework. The second step seeks to reconstruct the history of Korean Christianity, the relationship between church and state, and the impact of American church and politics from postcolonial perspective. As the third step, this study focuses on the homiletical discourses of Korean megachurches in terms of their relation to the dominant ideologies, such as anticommunism, national security, pro-Americanism, and economic prosperity. The last step is to present examples of theological efforts for ov...

Abstract:
Milk was collected from each of 18 cows (presenting an even spread of 1st, 2nd and 3rd lactation): colostrum on the day of calving and subsequent morning milk 1–5 days post parturition. Days post parturition significantly affected the fatty acid profile of colostrum and transition milk samples. The colostrum fatty acid profile was distinctly different from that of mature milk, with significantly higher levels of polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids. Parity of the cow had a significant effect on the fatty acid profile of colostrum and transition milk samples; conjugated linoleic acid was significantly higher in cows entering their 1st lactation than in those in their 3rd lactation, while multiparous cows produced significantly higher concentrations of C16:0. The changing composition of the fatty acid profile can be classed into three distinct phases: colostrum (D0), transition milk (D1 and D2 post parturition) and mature milk (D3–D5).

Abstract:
Bovine slurry and its subsequent storage are significant sources of ammonia (NH3) and greenhouse gases (GHGs). Chemical acidification of manures has been shown to significantly reduce these emissions. Waste products, derived from food processing and on-farm practices, may be used as natural acidifiers. However, the efficacy of these products in reducing pH and any subsequent emissions is unknown. Commercially available slurry improvers or additives may also be a viable mitigation option; however, their effectiveness has yet to be quantified. This study investigated the efficacy and cost of a range of waste and commercial amendments and a chemical acidifier, ferric chloride (FeCl3), to identify the most effective amendment for NH3 and GHG emissions reduction. The majority of the waste amendments investigated reduced NH3 by between 2% and 67%. Methane (CH4) emissions were reduced only by spent brewers grain, sugarbeet molasses and grass silage effluent at the higher inclusions ...

Establishing nationally representative benchmarks of farm-gate nitrogen and phosphorus balances and use efficiencies on Irish farms to encourage improvements
(2021)

Abstract:
Agriculture faces considerable challenges of achieving more sustainable production that minimises nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) losses and meets international obligations for water quality and greenhouse gas emissions. This must involve reducing nutrient balance (NB) surpluses and increasing nutrient use efficiencies (NUEs), which could also improve farm profitability (a win-win). To set targets and motivate improvements in Ireland, nationally representative benchmarks were established for different farm categories (sector, soil group and production intensity). Annual farm-gate NBs (kg ha−1) and NUEs (%) for N and P were calculated for 1446 nationally representative farms from 2008 to 2015 using import and export data collected by the Teagasc National Farm Survey (part of the EU Farm Accountancy Data Network). Benchmarks for each category were established using quantile regression analysis and percentile rankings to identify farms with the lowest NB surplus per production intensit...

New self-reported exhaustion during the COVID-19 Pandemic
(2021)
Romero-Ortuno, Roman; Bourke, Nollaig
Abstract:
In 2020, participants from The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing were surveyed to provide vital and timely information on lived experiences of older adults during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. During 2020, older adults experienced many challenges, such as living with restrictions on movement, having less opportunities for socialisation and, in some cases, limited access to healthcare. Consequently, lifestyles are impacted, with both negative and positive effects being reported in the literature. This report concentrates on the prevalence of new-onset self-reported exhaustion (SRE) in 2020 amongst TILDA participants, and explores possible predictors and associated factors. The relationship with SARS-CoV-2 status and commonly reported COVID-19 symptomatology are also investigated.

Journeys from discomfort to comfort: how do university students experience being taught and assessed by adults with intellectual disabilities?
(2021)
Feely, Michael
Abstract:
From 2016-17, academics at a leading Irish university collaborated with a group of self- advocates with intellectual disabilities to co-design, co-deliver, and co-assess an entire disability module for third-year undergraduate social work students. There are few, if any, reports of university modules of this type, involving adults with intellectual disabilities, in the existing literature. Alongside and after the module, our group of academics and self-advocates conducted inclusive research regarding relevant stakeholders? experiences of the initiative. This paper relates to university students? experiences of being taught and assessed by adults with intellectual disabilities. These experiences were overwhelmingly positive with reported benefits including increased comfort around disability and greater empathy with people with people with disabilities. This said, some aspects of being taught and assessed by self-advocates with intellectual disabilities also provoked considerable anx...

Boom and bust: economic voting in Ireland
(2017)
Reidy, Theresa; Suiter, Jane; Breen, Michael
Abstract:
The global financial crisis and economic collapse in countries across the world presents new challenges for economic voting models. While there is a consensus that economic voting exists, even the most ardent supporters will agree that it is a variable force and can only explain a portion of voting behaviour (Lewis-Beck 2007). However, when changes in economic circumstances are life altering, the impact is likely to be far greater. This paper explores the asymmetry effects of boom and bust economics on voting patterns at Irish national elections from 2002 – 2011, a period which contains three elections with the most recent in 2011 being the third most volatile in European post-war history (Mair 2012). Drawing on the Stegmaier and Lewis-Beck (2011) framework, the paper investigates asymmetric economic voting as a force at routine and crisis elections. Ireland presents a fascinating case study in the examination of economic voting in times of crisis. Indeed, the scale of the political...
