British Medical Association members are now able to use a new service to doctors which, until recently, has been largely exlusive to libraries in big hospitals and other institutions. At the time of writing, the BMA Library Dial-Up Medline Project has just completed its pilot stage and is due to be launched formally at the beginning of June. Trials started in November 1992 and the system is now up and running.

Abstract:
Smart home and artificial intelligence technologies are developing rapidly, and various smart home products associated with artificial intelligence (AI) improved the quality of living for occupants. Although some studies discussed the application of artificial intelligence in smart homes, few publications fully considered the integration of literature and products. In this paper, we aim to answer the research questions of “what is the trend of smart home technology and products” and “what is the relationship between literature and products in smart homes with AI”. Literature reviews and product reviews are given to define the functions and roles of artificial intelligence in smart homes. We determined the application status of artificial intelligence in smart home products and how it is utilized in our house so that we could understand how artificial intelligence is used to make smart homes. Furthermore, our results revealed that there is a delay between literature and products, and smart home intelligent interactions will become more and more popular.

Abstract:
Even though home-working and teleworking are very common words used often nowadays, they do not name a new phenomenon. Working from people's homes was a common practice in the pre-industrial era, because many people worked primarily close to their homes in various craft workshops. The actual context of COVID-19 associated with contact restrictions has influenced many companies to allow their employees to work from home to reduce the possibility of infections, so it can be seen as a significant change in this perspective. Analyzing both new and old studies on the subject, it is clear that the phenomenon has evolved and its most significant changes have occurred in the last period, in addition to providing a broad perspective on this type of work. The study focuses on the effects of teleworking on productivity, attitudes toward home-based telework and traditional office work, work-life balance, hybrid work mechanisms, and environmental benefits.

Abstract:
Introduction: The SARS-CoV-2 virus has 2 pathways of spread which are direct (through droplets) and indirect (through the surface of objects affected by droplets or through air). Therefore, social distancing by staying in home is one of the key to prevent the spread of Covid19. However, the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is increasingly common in family level. The risk of family members getting infected is higher because they begin to move outside the house during new normal. Accordingly, a good home environment is needed to improve its residents’ health. This study aims to determine the benefits of implementing healthy home as the new normal in preventing the spread of Covid19 at family level. Discussion: This study was a literature review using literature research as the data source. The literature used were in the form of research journals and articles on Covid19 and healthy home. The data used were research studies conducted from January 2016 to June 2020. There was 9 articles, about benefit healthy home on SARS-CoV-2 transmission, that selected in this study. Healthy home was the idea of homes that have fulfilled the health standards with adequate sanitation. Healthy home was purposively built to make the residents feel comfortable and stay healthy at all times. The components of healthy home were: good ventilation; natural lighting of the house; occupancy density; residents’ behavior; and waste management. Conclusion: The application of healthy home principle had many benefits for its residents and was closely related to Covid19 prevention.

McIntosh, Malachi. ""Home" : emigration, identity and modern Caribbean literature." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2010. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/35526/.

Full text
Abstract:
Caribbean writing is an emigrant tradition. The first waves of native-born authors from the region all spent significant portions of their lives abroad and, almost without exception, built their fame upon the desires of metropolitan audiences for knowledge of their colonies. Accordingly, the famous names of Lamming, Naipaul, Selvon, Césaire and Glissant are all stamped with a slightly less famous departure date. While many critics have noted these facts, there has been little sustained analysis of how the unique social positions and preoccupations of emigrants have affected the works of these five writers or their peers. This thesis is an attempt to address this issue. Its argument is that Caribbean emigrant authors spoke from unique social and conceptual loci. Through detailed, comparative readings of these five authors’ first major works, alongside considerations of their self-assessments, critical opinion on their oeuvres, Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of the literary field and Antonio Gramsci’s theory of the organic intellectual, the argument advanced is that although these authors actively positioned themselves, and were positioned by their readers, in such a way that their emigrant status has had its importance elided, that status is present and potent in their post-emigration works. While the concerns of these writers all altered over the course of their careers, their early experiences of emigration shaped some of their most widely read texts and resulted in a harmony between them that transcends the authors’ differing islands of origin and their later thematic and political preoccupations.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis argues for a unique relationship between African American literature and liminal space, predicated on the historical facts of North American slavery. While recent critics of African American literature have argued for the importance of historical and civic space in shaping racialised discourse, the· role of liminal space has not been well examined. This thesis examines texts by three African American writers - Harriet Jacobs, Ralph Ellison and John Edgar Wideman - and one Canadian Caribbean author, Nalo Hopkinson, to argue that their literary representations of liminality perform two functions: firstly, symbolising the experience of slavery and its attendant experiences of incarceration; and secondly, problematising mainstream categories of race and identity. By investigating the narrative construction of these liminal spaces, this thesis will extend the categories of 'African American' and the 'novel' in two important directions: towards the future and into the 'black Atlantic'. The following five chapters will address how the symbolic use of narrative liminality enables black writers to resist or appropriate the cultural and ideological structures imposed by white Europeans in the New World and also those structures later developed within a rapidly urbanising society. Firstly, Harriet Jacobs's slave narrative addresses the restrictive architecture of slavery and domesticity and, through Linda Brent's attic hideaway, Jacobs expresses a ·concern with endurance and female authority. The Ralph Ellison chapter examines the shifting nature of liminality and subjectivity in the post-slavery migration environment; Invisible Man's cellar engages with racialised tropes of deterrito'rialisation and desire. John Edgar Wideman addresses ideas of race and artistic responsibility in his treatment of a contemporary suburban bombsite, assessing the difficulty of achieving spaces of possibility in the face of racialised urban decay. Jhe concluding chapter uses Nalo Hopkinson's speculative fiction to challenge the essentialist construction of an African American liminal aesthetic by enacting its subversive qualities across the geographical boundaries of the black Atlantic. Hopkinson's projection of a racialised underground onto the new spaces of technology also disturbs traditional models of genre and discourse.

Full text
Abstract:
When contemporary Caribbean-Canadian writer Dionne Brand encounters home, she is confronted by social norms - domestic and national - that may exclude her based on race, gender, sexuality and birthplace, or that may include her on the conditional denial of any one of these identifications. Reading her memoir and three novels, this study examines Brand's conceptualization of home and her attempts to uncover its failings, dismantle its borders, and ultimately refigure the concept of home as what I term Brand's uneasy homespaces - sites where provisional reterritorializations sign and enable agency, open the possibility of connection through negotiation, and retain uneasiness as a reminder of necessary provisionality. Through prolonged attention to the difference between the theoretically empowering and the materially destructive, Brand resists utopian fantasies of cosmopolitan global citizenship and the metaphorization of homelessness, while also countering, in her later work, easy dismissals of the nation-state by presenting a community that gains agency through identification with the city and nation even as it actively critiques the state.

Full text
Abstract:
SARS-CoV-2 screen testing is routine serial testing of asymptomatic individuals outside of outbreak or known exposure settings to identify staff infectious with SARS-CoV-2 and exclude them from work. Routine asymptomatic screen testing of staff has been proposed as a potential mitigating strategy to reduce SARS-CoV-2 introduction and transmission in long-term care (LTC) homes. A rapid review of the literature found no real-world evidence to either support or refute screen testing in preventing LTC home COVID-19 outbreaks. There are several direct harms associated with screen testing, as well as opportunity costs, including exacerbating LTC staffing shortages. On the basis of the evidence reviewed, and given the high rates of protection of COVID-19 vaccines against symptomatic and asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection, the potential harms and costs of screen testing among vaccinated LTC home staff likely outweigh the benefits.

Abstract:
There is a small but growing body of literature that discusses the benefits, challenges and opportunities of intersectional responses to the socioeconomic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. There is a strong body of evidence pointing to the disproportionate impact of Covid-19 borne by women, who have suffered record job losses, been expected to take on even greater unpaid care burdens and home schooling responsibilities, and faced a “shadow pandemic” of violence against women and girls. However, gender inequalities cannot be discussed in isolation from other inequalities. Emerging literature stresses the importance of a Covid-19 recovery plan that addresses how gender intersects with class, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, geography, immigration status and religion or belief, and other factors such as employment, housing (and homelessness) and environmental and political stressors.

Abstract:
From March 2020 to September 2021, a herd of approximately 15 Asian elephants left their home in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve. Along their journey, the herd broke into homes, damaged buildings and infrastructure, and destroyed crops, totaling estimated damage of over $1 million. The migration coincided with a severe drought in the region, indicating that the elephant’s habitat was likely unable to support them. As elephant populations have grown in southern China, habitat size and suitability has been reduced, increasing the likelihood of human-elephant conflict. As pressures such as climate change and population growth further push people and wildlife into shared spaces, management approaches must be tailored to the concept of coexistence. This technical background report for the 2021/2022 edition of the Interconnected Disaster Risks report analyses the root causes, drivers, impacts and potential solutions for the wandering elephants through a forensic analysis of academic literature, media articles and expert interviews.

Abstract:
Introduction and Importance: Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is an uncommon postoperative complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Radiological investigations such as abdominal ultrasonography (USG) and computed tomography (CT) are crucial to evaluate and diagnose intra-abdominal abscesses, especially hepatic collections. Case Presentation: A 66-year-old female patient with multiple comorbidities, including urticaria requiring monoclonal antibody therapy (humera). She underwent an uneventful RYGB to treat her weight regain and reflux after a prior sleeve gastrectomy and presented with diffuse abdominal pain. This occurred on postoperative day 23 after the patient was discharged home. Patient evaluation was initiated by physical examination, laboratory investigations, and radiological diagnostic tools. Chest and abdominal X-rays together with abdominal ultrasonography were unremarkable. Then, abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans with IV contrast were done, and a liver abscess was detected. Image-guided percutaneous transhepatic liver abscess drainage through pigtail drain placement was performed. The patient’s response was evaluated by serial abdominal CT scans. The liver abscess was successfully treated by percutaneous drainage for 5 weeks and IV antibiotic therapy. Clinical Discussion: PLA is a rare entity that might occur after gastro-intestinal surgery such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Patients with a history of immunosuppressive therapy may be at increased risk of this complication. This life-threatening complication can be prevented by treating liver abscesses early on by utilizing imaging-guided drainage and intravenous antibiotics. Conclusion: Due to the unusual etiologic origin of hepatic abscess post-RYGB, we report the case of a 66-year-old female with diffuse abdominal pain, which was found to be caused by PLA.
