Abstract:
This study explored significant effects on prejudice towards foreigners expressed by Maltese individuals when exposed to the Maltese national flag, taking into consideration their nationalistic and patriotic tendencies. A volunteer sample of university students was surveyed via a web-based questionnaire where nationalism, patriotism and prejudice against foreigners were measured using the image of the Maltese flag as an experimental variable. Analysis of the results indicates that for the sample population, subtle exposure to the Maltese flag has the effect of reducing expressions of prejudice. These results provide some insight into the psychological factors that may mould reactions Maltese people have towards foreigners with consequent political and social implications.

Abstract:
The following retrospective study was conducted to determine the prevalence of hearing loss (HL) in the Maltese Islands. It is estimated that this will be found to be between 1.4% and 15.2% of the population according to previous studies held by the Maltese National Census in 2011, estimations made by the World Health Organisation and published statistics by EuroStat. A significant correlation between HL and age of participants is expected. Correlations between HL and sex, region of inhabitancy and awareness of HL will also be calculated using Statistical Package for the Social Science. The data was collected by a privately owned company following the British Standard of Audiology’s procedure for Surveillance Audiometry and targeted a population of males and females 18 years and older. Spearman’s Correlation Coefficient showed a significant correlation between age and HL as hypothesised (0.578 with significance found at 0.01). All Pearson Chi-Square results however showed no significance on HL being correlated with sex, region, or awareness. On review, indications were found to further study the relationship between HL severity and sound pollution of varying localities. Awareness of HL requires further study more specific to this cause in order to extrapolate distinctive results. In conclusion, the prevalence of HL was found to be 2% of the population, thus confirming the hypothesis. Since participation was voluntary, the majority of which were elderly, the cohort did not produce a true random sample. A larger, more random sample would produce more accurate insight on HL prevalence in the Maltese Islands.

Abstract:
In small populations, mortality rates are characterized by a great volatility, the datasets are often available for a few years and suffer from missing data. Therefore, standard mortality models may produce high uncertain and biologically improbable projections. In this paper, we deal with the mortality projections of the Maltese population, a small country with less than 500,000 inhabitants, whose data on exposures and observed deaths suffers from all the typical problems of small populations. We concentrate our analysis on older adult mortality. Starting from some recent suggestions in the literature, we assume that the mortality of a small population can be modeled starting from the mortality of a bigger one (the reference population) adding a spread. The first part of the paper is dedicated to the choice of the reference population, then we test alternative mortality models. Finally, we verify the capacity of the proposed approach to reduce the volatility of the mortality projections. The results obtained show that the model is able to significantly reduce the uncertainty of projected mortality rates and to ensure their coherent and biologically reasonable evolution.

Abstract:
SummaryThe Black Maltese is a nearly-extinct light breed of non-sitting, egg-type chicken, present in the Maltese Islands. Formerly widely reared under backyard conditions for its abundant, white eggs, it has now been entirely replaced by intensely-reared synthetic strains of poultry. This breed is also absent from the remaining backyard flocks in Malta, having been replaced by Rhode Island Red commercial strains. The Black Maltese survives in dwindling numbers as a curiosity and show-bird for poultry shows. The current spatial distribution and breed population size were determined, and breed standard was established. Suggestions on safeguarding this breed were also discussed.

Abstract:
This study exploits the rare opportunity of a national representative sample, and explores the attitudes of adults towards trade unions in Malta. Data were gathered through a telephone survey carried out among a sample of 1512 persons, representing the Maltese working-age population. Respondents have an overall positive opinion of trade unions, which are seen to carry out important functions in Maltese society. However, slightly fewer than half of the respondents claimed to be satisfied with the work of trade unions, indicating that they are less confident about the unions’ role in offering individual services to their members. A number of suggestions are given in order to stem or reverse the apparent erosion of confidence in Maltese trade unions.

Mizzi, Stephen. "The influence of seasonal variation on in-shoe temperature and relative humidity during moderate exercise in a Maltese population : implications for diabetic foot ulceration." Thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University, 2016. http://create.canterbury.ac.uk/15679/.

Full text
Abstract:
Temperature and humidity (microclimate) are key factors implicated in the development of pressure ulceration, however, microclimate in-shoe has been relatively understudied in research related to diabetic foot ulceration (DFU). Additionally, the influence of ambient climate on these parameters in-shoe has also been overlooked. Such information is needed since footwear guidelines to prevent DFU commonly emerge from countries with cooler climates and it is not known whether their application in warmer Mediterranean climates is beneficial. Preliminary validation studies demonstrated suitability of the thermistors (ICC r = 1; Bland and Altman limits of agreement of -0.42°C and 95% CI -1.96, 1.14) and relative humidity sensors (ICC r = 1; Bland and Altman limits of agreement of -0.6°C and 95% CI -1.8, 0.6) for use in in-shoe measurement during ambulation when compared with the gold reference instruments. A reliable repeated measure of in vivo application during shod gait with a thermistor and RH sensor attached between first and second toe and beneath the navicular, was demonstrated. To assess influence of season on in-shoe microclimate, 14 healthy participants walked for 38 minutes on a treadmill in winter and in summer, establishing normative data which was then compared with data from diabetic participants (n=5) using the same protocol. Results demonstrated that seasonal variation has a significant influence (p < 0.01) on inshoe temperature, while no difference was exhibited on in-shoe RH kinetics (p > 0.05). It has been demonstrated that after 20 minutes of walking in Summer, in-shoe skin parameters exceeded 30°C and 70% RH in both healthy and DM participants, levels previously stipulated as indicative of unfavourable parameters to skin resilience in other areas of the body. Therefore, this study provides new Mediterranean-relevant evidence related to in-shoe temperature and RH kinetics during activity, suggestive of negative implications to tissue viability, and also highlighting the need for more climate-specific guidelines related to the use of closed footwear, prescribed to prevent diabetic foot ulceration. It is hoped that this novel information will increase awareness on high in-shoe temperature and RH levels, as potential and influential factors within the pathway of diabetic foot ulceration, in Malta and countries with similar climates.

Abstract:
The fact that Maltese has adopted over 20,000 Sicilian and Italian words, including 41% of its vocabulary at the Threshold Level, shows that this is not a case of borrowing at the higher social levels. To explain this unusual phenomenon the extraordinary growth in the island’s population and its rapid development under the Knights of St John and the British government are taken into account. Whereas works written in Italian from the 16th to the 20th century are abundant, and their quality is not inferior to those written in Italy, little is known about the efforts made by illiterate persons to speak the high language. The paper presents a few symptomatic comments and samples from the past, and from the present.

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 4 reflects on the conflicting valences of the picturesque aesthetic in William Cullen Bryant’s “A Story of the Island of Cuba” (1828). Bryant’s story uses the conventions of this aesthetic framework to interrogate American and European interests in the archipelago. It does so by mildly satirizing the knowledge claims of the emergent field of descriptive geography (particularly the work of Conrad Malte-Brun), which integrated detailed landscape descriptions into the practice of geographical inquiry even while devaluing eyewitness accounts. This trend toward a more academic and literary discourse in contemporary geography aligns with the dematerialization of climate during this period. “A Story of the Island of Cuba” reflects on this development by dramatizing conflicting valuations of scientific curiosity, as both a driver behind amiable science and an emblem of illicit knowledge, in relation to Indigenous and enslaved populations in the Caribbean.

Full text
Abstract:
Disaccharidases are abundant enzymes expressed on the microvillous membrane of the small intestine: apart from free glucose and fructose, disaccharidases are required for the complete assimilation of nearly all carbohydrate present in food and drinks. The enzymes cleave disaccharides such as sucrose, maltose, and lactose, as well as dextrins derived from starch, into their component monosaccharides. Their activity is reduced in hereditary conditions or in generalized intestinal diseases. Disaccharidase deficiency causes dietary intolerance of carbohydrate induced by the fermentation of undigested sugars in the distal small intestine and colon. Abdominal symptoms are usually noticed within an hour of the ingestion of foods containing the offending sugars. By far the most common symptomatic disaccharidase deficiency is lactose intolerance. Lactase activity is high in healthy infants when milk is the principal food, but in most humans the activity declines after weaning and remains low (lactase nonpersistence), which greatly reduces the capacity to break down lactose. In contrast, those inheriting a Mendelian dominant trait that leads to sustained high intestinal lactase expression throughout life (lactase persistence) digest and tolerate large quantities. The distribution of lactase activity in adult populations is subject to great variation. Intestinal lactase phenotypes can be identified by assay of mucosal biopsy samples or appropriate sugar tolerance tests, as can other (much rarer) genetically determined disaccharidase variants. The most convenient diagnostic screen involves hydrogen breath testing after oral loading. Disaccharide intolerance is readily treated by institution of a strict exclusion diet; oral enzymatic supplementation may benefit patients with severe enzymatic deficiency. Innovative and early phase clinical trials suggest that modulation of the host intestinal microbiome with a pure short-chain galacto-oligosaccharide may be beneficial in symptom control and in favouring the outgrowth of lactose-fermenting flora.
