Abstract:
This article introduces the topic of radical care by providing a genealogy of care as a vital but underexamined praxis of radical politics that provides spaces of hope in precarious times. Following recent theoretical interventions into the importance of self-care despite its susceptibility to neoliberal co-optation, the potentialities of self-care may be expanded outward to include other forms that push back against structural disadvantage. Care contains radical promise through a grounding in autonomous direct action and nonhierarchical collective work. However, because radical care is inseparable from systemic inequality and power structures, it can also be used to coerce subjects into new forms of surveillance and unpaid labor, to make up for institutional neglect, and even to position some groups against others, determining who is worthy of care and who is not. With care reentering the zeitgeist as a reaction to today’s political climate, radical care engages histories of grassroots community action and negotiates neoliberal models for self-care. Studies of care thereby prompt us to consider how and when care becomes visible, valued, and necessary within broader social movements. To that end, the articles in this collection locate and analyze the mediated boundaries of what it means for individuals and groups to feel and provide care, survive, and even dare to thrive in environments that challenge their very existence. As the traditionally undervalued labor of caring becomes recognized as a key element of individual and community resilience, radical care provides a roadmap for envisioning an otherwise.

Abstract:
Bourgeoning technological advances in biomedicine profoundly animate modern biopolitical understandings of risk and protection and related ways of knowing, offering, and seeking care. But what might it mean to embody protection by means of suspicion toward these very medicotechnological deployments of care? What can suspicion toward biomedical and technological forms of care teach us about histories of risk, medicine, and the imperative to care in the postcolonial world? This article wrestles with these questions. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Barbados between 2015 and 2018, it embraces care’s historically antithetical meanings to examine the caring work of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and Afro-Barbadians’ hesitancy toward it. Looking closer at care, the impetus to care, and the consequences of refusing that care, it gestures toward the risks and potentialities of not-doing and the affective feelings of suspicion that exist for Afro-Barbadian parents who have refused the care of the HPV vaccine for their adolescent children amid an epidemic of cervical cancer in the developing world.

Abstract:

This study’s purpose was to document African American community college student experiences related to new theory at the nexus of relational care theory and BlackCrit, specifically, radical care theory. Faculty-student relational care experiences have demonstrated significant power to both support and empower historically minoritized African American students in community college. Impactful faculty-student relationships positively influence students in academics, their personal lives, and as members of the African American community. Utilizing a framework of care theory and BlackCrit with corresponding critical methodology, this study determined that radical care interactions between faculty members and students affirms students such that they perform better academically, realize positive effects in their personal lives, and engage differently as members of the Black community, both on and off-campus. Results demonstrate the significant importance of college faculty member selection aligned to those who demonstrate reciprocal, genuine care in their work with students. It further highlights the imperative of professional development dedicated both to enhancing academe awareness of radical care, and to the development of radical care attributes in community college faculty. Dedicated radical care serves to counters deficit thinking and opportunity gaps existing between African American community college students and peers of other races. The study open avenues for further exploration of radical care among and between other historically marginalized groups, and for continued research into radical care singularity, that is, care proffered by professors of the same race. Radical care principles are widely applicable and provide opportunities for study between classified staff members and students.

Abstract:
Despite victim advocates' missions of helping survivors of abuse, advocacy work takes a toll on workers. Advocates perform a multitude of tasks in their jobs including care work, emotional labor, and empowerment counseling which may subject them to consequences such as burnout, compassion fatigue, and compassion satisfaction. As such, this thesis details the work I conducted with the Butterfly Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault agency shelter advocates. The purpose of my thesis was to (1) document and review advocates' self-identified work-related needs and to (2) co-construct an educational intervention with the advocates using feminist participatory action research that would help them manage these aspects of their work. I argue that advocacy work impacts the Butterfly advocates across relational and wellness dimensions which inspired advocates' need to implement individual and organizational self-care practices. Furthermore, I contend that the process of feminist participatory action research constructed sustainable individual and organizational self-care interventions with the shelter advocates. The findings have implications for employees in advocacy work and for the larger discourse regarding the relationship between women and care work. Furthermore, findings reveal that creating a culture of self-care may serve as a way to reinforce and resist hegemonic Western notions of work culture in trauma related and non-trauma related fields.

Claytor, Ann. "A changing faith? : a history of developments in radical critiques of psychiatry since the 1960's." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 1993. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/3476/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines the emergence of anti-psychiatry since the early 1960s, addressing two questions: 1. Why did anti-psychiatry emerge at this time? 2. How influential is anti-psychiatry today? Anti -psychiatry was found not to consist of one identifiable set of' proposals, but a shifting package of views. One factor remains consistent across versions of anti-psychiatry: criticism of medicalisation of mental disorder. Anti-psychiatry emerged during the 1960s for two reasons: a) Psychiatrists had adopted positivistic conceptualisations of human disorder, which reduced psychiatric patients to 'malfunctioning machines'. Anti-psychiatry restored the patient's subjectivity to the centre of psychiatric practice, b) The mid-twentieth century saw the expansion of state planning and a reduced emphasis upon individual liberty. Anti-psychiatry was part of the counter- culture, which criticised the welfare' state as a machine for producing 'normality'/conformity. 1960s Anti -psychiatry was more libertarian than Marxist. By the 1970s, anti-psychiatry divided into two distinct forms: radical psychotherapy and Marxist anti-therapy. Versions of Marxist anti-therapy fail to propose alternatives to therapy which are not themselves therapeutic or paratherapeutic. This problem derives from excessive reliance upon Szasz's libertarian critique which is flawed. Anti-psychiatry is less influential today; having suffered from academic criticism and failed to offer solutions to the problems posed by 'community care’. It competes with critiques which are pro-democracy, rather than anti- medicine. Italian reforms provide one possible model. MIND's mental health campaigns are democratically rather than anti -psychiatrically based. The user movement includes both anti -psychiatry c users and democratically-minded ones". Democratisation of mental health provision is complicated by the continuing need for expert professionals and some compulsory treatment, and by problems inherent within the user movement. However, democracy rather than anti-psychiatry now offers the best basis for political critiques of psychiatry.

Full text
Abstract:
A clinical caremap is a cost-effective tool for clinical process improvement that has been accepted in hospitals and various healthcare organizations in many countries. However, compared to the literature describing the initial development of the clinical caremaps, the evaluation of the impact of the variances in the caremap pathway on the patient's expected outcomes and the patient's length of stay (LOS) remains relatively less analyzed. In this research, we deal with the issue of variances in the clinical caremap by building a Bayesian belief network named BBN_RPC to model the radical prostatectomy caremap. The BBN_RPC model provides insight into probabilistic dependencies that exist among the activities (variables) in the caremap. We then use the BBN_RPC model to analyze possible variances and to make inferences. The results show that most of the activities in the caremap are related with each other and to some extent linked with the patient's length of stay (LOS), whereas different activities have different weights on the LOS. Using radical prostatectomy patients' data from a retrospective chart study conducted at the Ottawa Civic Hospital, we have applied the BBN_RPC model to predict a patient's future conditions and the LOS, based on the current observations. Predictive accuracy of the BBN_RPC model was evaluated by cross validation tests, which showed the accuracy for predicting the patient's LOS, given the patient's observations during the first two post-op days, is at approximately 94% level.

Menzel, Jasmin Patricia. "Synthesis of novel polymeric materials with potential application in hair care products : combining controlled radical polymerisation and polymer modification." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2012. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/80263/.

Full text
Abstract:
It was the original aim of this project to develop new, potentially stimuli sensitive materials with interesting architectures for potential application in hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners or styling products. Furthermore, various methods for the introduction of silicon functionalities into such polymers were investigated. Several methods of controlled radical polymerisation were combined with polymer end group modification to achieve these goals. Initially, polymerisation of several dimethacrylate monomers under catalytic chain transfer (CCT) conditions was optimised with regard to monomer conversion and control of Mw, thus preventing macro-gelation. CCTP is an excellent method for the synthesis of low molecular weight polymers retaining terminal vinyl groups which can be subsequently exploited for end group modification. Polymerising dimethacrylates under these conditions, the formation of highly branched architectures and the retention of a larger number of pendent vinyl groups adds more interesting aspects to synthesised materials. The incorporation of silicon functionalities was attempted in two ways: Via polymerisation of poly(dimethyl siloxane) dimethacrylates and via copolymerisation of a silicon containing monofunctional methacrylate with EGDMA. One of the PDMS dimethacrylates employed for CCTP was synthesed from a silanol terminated PDMS, attempting to introduce hydrolysable functionality and thus yielding potentially hydrolysable, hyperbranched polymers. Michael thiol-ene addition was subsequently used to decorate the pendant vinyl groups in CCTP polymers with a range of thiols, yielding highly functionalised polymers with hyperbranched architecture and low molecular weights. Following up on the idea of developing potentially hydrolysable, silicon containing polymers the synthesis of triblock copolymers with a PDMS middle block was attempted. PDMS dimethacrylates (silanol) were reacted with various thiols, ranging from small functional thiols like benzyl mercaptan or thioglycerol to PEG-thiols obtained via end group modification of mPEGs to aminolysed polymers previously synthesised by RAFT polymerisation. This part of the project was subsequently modified and an alternative approach for the synthesis of PDMS containing amphiphilic di- and triblock copolymers was investigated: Mono- and difunctional PDMS macroinitiators suitable for both ATRP and SET-LRP were synthesised via functionalisation of carbinol terminated PDMS. ATRP and SET-LRP were subsequently compared in the polymerisation of OEGMEMA monomers using these macroinitiators. Thermo-responsitivity of aqueous solutions of the resulting di- and triblock copolymers was studied using turbidimetry and Dynamic Light Scattering. Phase transitions in bulk were characterised by Differential Scanning Calorimetry and thermal stability was investigated via Thermogravimetric Analysis.

Abstract:
Radicals are core reactive species that occur in almost every subfield of chemistry. In particular, solution phase radicals find their way into biochemistry (e.g. vitamin B12), and in polymer chemistry (e.g. radical polymerizations) just to name a few. Yet, given the proliferation of radical chemistry, there are still fundamental aspects of it that are poorly understood. This dissertation probed factors that influence the solvent cage effect. The solvent cage effect is where two radicals are held in close proximity to one another and prevented from easily escaping (to form free radicals) by a cage of solvent molecules. A convenient metric of the solvent cage effect is the radical recombination efficiency (FcP). Typically, FcP correlates with the bulk viscosity of the solution, however, this parameter only produces qualitative assessments. This dissertation outlines a method to quantitatively predict FcP using the microviscosity. This microviscosity dependence holds for non polar, aromatic, polar, and hydrogen-bonding solvents, along with solutions that contain polymers. Microviscosity is a great metric because it addresses an underlying reason for the solvent cage effect, the strength of the cage. Not only does the strength of the solvent cage around the radical pair affect FcP, but so does the identity of the radicals themselves. That is, the strength of the solvent cage is one piece to forming a total predictive model. FcP for the Cp'2Mo2(CO)6 dimer also varies with the wavelength of irradiation. Identifying the mechanism by which this wavelength dependence occurs may also provide another factor to include in an overall model of the solvent cage effect. Also, an attempt at synthesizing an asymmetric molybdenum dimer was performed. This asymmetric dimer would allow the study of solvent caged radical pairs that are different from each other. Predicting the photochemical cage pair recombination efficiency (FcP) is the major topic of this dissertation. However, there is also the collisional cage recombination efficiency (Fcʹ). This is where free radicals come together in what is called a collisional solvent cage pair. A method and values of Fcʹ are detailed later in this dissertation. This dissertation contains previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

Abstract:
The majority of women's health nurses in this study work in generalist community health centres. They have developed their praxis within the philosophy and policies of the broader women's health movement and primary health care principles in Australia. The fundamental assumption underlying this study is that women's health nurses possess a unique body of knowledge and clinical wisdom that has not been previously documented and explored. The epistemological base from which these nurses' operate offers important insights into the substantive issues that create and continually shape the practice world of nurses and their clients. Whether this represents a (re)construction of the dominant forms of health care service delivery for women is examined in this study. The study specifically aims at exploring the practice issues and experience of women's health service provision by women's health nurses in the context of the provision of cervical cancer screening services. In mapping this particular group of nurses practice, it sets out to examine the professional and theoretical issues in contemporary nursing and women's health care. In critically analysing the powerful discourses that shape and reshape nursing work, the study raises the concern that previous analyses of pursing work tend to universalise the structural and social subordination of nurses and nursing knowledge. This universalism is most often based on examples of midwifery and nursing work in hospital settings, and subsequently, because of these conceptualisations, all of nursing is too often deemed as a dependent occupation, with little agency, and is analysed as always in relation to medicine, to hospitals, to other knowledge forms. Denoting certain discourses as dominant proposes a relationship of power and knowledge and the thesis argues that all work relations and practices in health are structured by certain power/knowledge relations. This analysis reveals that there IX are many competing and complimentary power/knowledge relations that structure nursing, but that nursing, and in particular women's health nurses, also challenge the power/knowledge relations around them. Through examining theories of power and knowledge the analysis, argues that theoretical eclecticism is necessary to address the complex and varied nature of nursing work. In particular it identifies that postmodern and radical feminist theorising provide the most appropriate framework to further analyse and interpret the work of women's health nurses. Fundamental to the position argued in this thesis is a feminist perspective. This position creates important theoretical and methodological links throughout the whole study. Feminist methodology was employed to guide the design, the collection and the analysis. Intrinsic to this process was the use of the 'voices' of women's health nurses as the basis for theorising. The 'voices' of these nurses are highlighted in the chapters as italicised bold script. A constant companion along the way in examining women's health nurses' work, was the reflexivity with feminist research processes, the theoretical discussions and their 'voices'. Capturing and analysing descriptive accounts of nursing praxis is seen in this thesis as providing a way to theorise about nursing work. This methodology is able to demonstrate the knowledge forms embedded in clinical nursing praxis. Three conceptual threads emerge throughout the discussions: one focuses on nursing praxis as a distinct process, with its own distinct epistemological base rather than in relation to 'other' knowledge forms; another describes the medical restriction and opposition as experienced by this group of nurses, but also of their resistance to medical opposition. The third theme apparent from the interviews, and which was conceptualised as beyond resistance, was the description of the alternative discourses evident in nursing work, and this focused on notions of being a professional and on autonomous nursing praxis. This study concludes that rather than accepting the totalising discourses about nursing there are examples within nursing of resistance—both ideologically and X in practice—to these dominant discourses. Women's health nurses represent an important model of women's health service delivery, an analysis of which can contribute to critically reflecting on the 'paradigm of oppression' cited in nursing and about nursing more generally. Reflecting on women's health service delivery also has relevance in today's policy environment, where structural shifts in Commonwealth/State funding arrangements in community based care, may undermine women's health programs. In summary this study identifies three important propositions for nursing: • nursing praxis can reconstruct traditional models of health care; • nursing praxis is powerful and able to 'resist' dominant discourses; and • nursing praxis can be transformative. Joining feminist perspectives and alternative analyses of power provides a pluralistic and emancipatory politics for viewing, describing and analysing 'other' nursing work. At the micro sites of power and knowledge relations—in the everyday practice worlds of nurses, of negotiation and renegotiation, of work on the margins and at the centre—women's health nurses' praxis operates as a positive, productive and reconstructive force in health care.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation documents the everyday lives and spaces of a population of youth typically constructed as out of place, and the broader urban context in which they are rendered as such. Thirty-three female and transgender street youth participated in the development of this youth-based participatory action research (YPAR) project utilizing geo-ethnographic methods, auto-photography, and archival research throughout a six-phase, eighteen-month research process in Bogotá, Colombia. This dissertation details the participatory writing process that enabled the YPAR research team to destabilize dominant representations of both street girls and urban space and the participatory mapping process that enabled the development of a youth vision of the city through cartographic images. The maps display individual and aggregate spatial data indicating trends within and making comparisons between three subgroups of the research population according to nine spatial variables. These spatial data, coupled with photographic and ethnographic data, substantiate that street girls’ mobilities and activity spaces intersect with and are altered by state-sponsored urban renewal projects and paramilitary-led social cleansing killings, both efforts to clean up Bogotá by purging the city center of deviant populations and places. Advancing an ethical approach to conducting research with excluded populations, this dissertation argues for the enactment of critical field praxis and care ethics within a YPAR framework to incorporate young people as principal research actors rather than merely voices represented in adultist academic discourse. Interjection of considerations of space, gender, and participation into the study of street youth produce new ways of envisioning the city and the role of young people in research. Instead of seeing the city from a panoptic view, Bogotá is revealed through the eyes of street youth who participated in the construction and feminist visualization of a new cartography and counter-map of the city grounded in embodied, situated praxis. This dissertation presents a socially responsible approach to conducting action-research with high-risk youth by documenting how street girls reclaim their right to the city on paper and in practice; through maps of their everyday exclusion in Bogotá followed by activism to fight against it.

Abstract:
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior
A Abordagem Centrada na Pessoa (ACP), fundada por Carl Rogers, sà pode ser justificada a partir de um conjunto de valores e de uma Ãtica e nÃo somente como uma aplicaÃÃo de tÃcnicas e conhecimentos. AlÃm disto, a partir dos estudos de Figueiredo (1996) fica estabelecida a importÃncia do Ãthos como busca de um lugar para o Outro na constituiÃÃo das psicologias. Naquilo que se refere ao Lugar do Outro na constituiÃÃo da subjetividade, Freire (2002) investiga o lugar para a alteridade nas diversas psicologias modernas e afirma que, na ACP, o lugar para a alteridade radical levinasiana està vacante, assim como nas demais psicologias. O Outro, conforme postulado por LÃvinas (2008 [1961]), à precedente e transcendente ao Eu; nÃo sendo possÃvel totalizÃ-lo e compreendÃ-lo inteiramente, ele apresenta a dimensÃo do estranho na experiÃncia psicolÃgica. Este Outro nÃo à figura tÃo cara para as psicologias como aparenta ser. Por outro lado, Peter Schmid (1999) concebe que a Ãtica à a primeira questÃo a ser pensada quando se trata da ACP, quer de sua teoria, quer de sua prÃtica. Daà que este trabalho objetivou apresentar a obra de Peter Schmid à comunidade brasileira da abordagem rogeriana. A perspectiva deste autor està alicerÃada em um diÃlogo importante com as filosofias do diÃlogo e uma visÃo do humano como radicalmente pessoa, o que oferece outra forma de encarar a alteridade na teoria e prÃtica rogerianas. Tal mudanÃa apresenta uma profÃcua aproximaÃÃo com a filosofia Ãtica de Emmanuel LÃvinas. Como metodologia para o estudo, utilizou-se um quase-mÃtodo inspirado nas filosofias de LÃvinas (2008 [1961]) e Derrida (2008), em que buscamos, entre outras coisas, pÃr à mostra a polissemia dos discursos estudados. Concluiu-se que, apesar da perspectiva formulada por Schmid apresentar divergÃncias com a Ãtica levinasiana, ao fazer releituras dos principais conceitos da ACP, ela apresenta uma maior aproximaÃÃo com aquela e uma nova forma de lidar com a alteridade dentro do arcabouÃo da abordagem rogeriana. Espera-se, com este trabalho, fomentar um maior diÃlogo e produÃÃo acerca do cuidado clÃnico e psicoterapÃutico com a pessoa e o lugar oferecido para a alteridade na psicologia rogeriana.
The Person Centred Approach (PCA), founded by Carl Rogers, can only be justified from a set of values and ethics and not only as an application of skills and knowledge. Furthermore, from studies of Figueiredo (1996), it is established the importance of ethos as a search for a place to the Other in the constitution of psychologies. In what refers to the place of the Other in the constitution of subjectivity, Freire (2002) investigates the place to alterity in several modern psychologies and states that in PCA, the place for Levinasâ radical alterity is vacant, as in other psychologies. The Other, as postulated by Levinas (2008 [1961]), is precedent and transcendent to the I; not being possible to totalize and understand it fully; it shows the dimension of the strange in the psychological experience. This Other is not so dear figure to psychologies as it appears to be. On the other hand, Peter Schmid (1999) conceives that ethics is the first issue to be considered when it comes to PCA, either its theory or its practice. Hence, the present paper aims to present the work of Peter Schmid to the Brazilian community of Rogerian approach. The perspective of this author is grounded in an important dialogue with the philosophies of dialogue and a vision of the human as radically a person, which offers another way to face the alterity in Rogerian theory and practice. Such change presents a fruitful approach to ethical philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas. A methodology for the study, we used an almost-in-method inspired by the philosophies of Levinas (2008 [1961]) and Derrida (2007), in which we seek, among other things, to put on display the polysemy of the studied speeches. We conclude that, despite the divergences among the prospect formulated by Schmid with Levinasian ethics, doing readings of the main concepts of the PCA, it shows a closer relationship with that one and a new way of dealing with the alterity within the framework of the Rogerian approach. With this work, we hope to foment a greater dialogue and production on the clinical and psychotherapeutic care of the person and the place offered to otherness in Rogerian psychology.

Abstract:
Introduction: Clinical staging is universally accepted for ca cervix. In early stage of carcinoma cervix both radiation and radical hysterectomy given equivalent local control rates as well as survival. Poor prognostic factors following surgery would necessitate-post-operative adjuvant radiation. Selecting the patients who is unlikely to require adjuvant treatment after surgery spares them the toxicity of multiple treatment modalities, which is worse than alone. Aim: To find out clinico-pathological correlation in early stage carcinoma cervix treated with the surgery. Materials and Methods: It is a retrospective audit of study. All carcinoma cervix cases primarily treated with surgery. Results: A total of 25 cases were treated in this study. The median age of patients observed with 48 years. The common symptoms and stage were vaginal discharge (i.e., 42.30%) and 1B1 (61.53%). Most of patients were treated with type III radical hysterectomy and their clinical staging was correlated with the final histo-pathological staging. A total of 11 (i.e., 42.30%) required adjuvant treatment among them 7 (63.633%), 1 (9.09%) and 3 (27.27%) patients were in 1B1 1B2 and 2A respectively. The chi-square test has been performed to compute the correlation between clinical and histo-pathological finding. It shows that significant amount of relation present between clinical and histo-pathological findings.

Abstract:
Objectives: In view of the prominent incidence and morbidity (especially cosmetic and psychological) associated with breast cancer, it was intended to demonstrate the evolution of the surgical approach of this pathology in women operated at the Hospital Geral de Palmas (HGP), in the pre- and post-training course in breast oncoplasty (BO) by mastologists. Methodology: A retrospective cohort study of surgery for breast cancer in women performed from July 2013 to June 2016 at the HGP. The study criteria were based on patients’ identification and respective age, date of surgery, and the type of surgery, either reconstructive or radical. The number of reconstructive surgeries was compared between the period before the end of the training (pre-course, July 2013, to December 2014) and the period that followed (post-course, January 2015 to June 2016). The descriptive statistics and the comparison of the variables were analyzed using the software IBM®SPSS® Estatistics 20.0. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used for normality analysis and the one-sample chisquare test for expected distribution with one degree of freedom (DF). The association between the type of surgery and the period (pre- or post-course) was assessed with Pearson’s chi-square (χ2 -P) and its subsequent continuity correction (CC), likelihood ratio (λLR), and Fisher’s exact test by linear-by-linear association (FEL-LA). Significance level α=5% was adopted. Results: Records of 94 surgeries performed before and 134 after training were found. Of these, the percentage of reconstructive practices increased from 5.3% (2013–2014) to 53.7% (2015–2016), with a significant association with the completion of training in BO (χ2 -P=57.891; CC=55.747; λLR=67.533; FEL-LA=57.637; DF=1; p<0.001). Conclusion: The training in BO provides better aesthetic conditions and, therefore, better quality of life after surgery, in addition to allowing assistance to more patients, regardless of the plastic surgery team dedicated to oncoplastic procedures.

Abstract:
Introduction: Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is an effective treatment alternative in newborns (NB) with moderate to severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). It is suggested that hypothermia, initiated in the first 6 hours after the hypoxic insult, by reducing brain metabolism, decreases cytotoxic edema, free radical production, neuronal excitability, the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters, nitric oxide and cytokines and apoptosis, mechanisms responsible for the late neurological lesions of EHI. Thus, TH improves survival and neurological prognosis in these newborns. Materials: Review of medical records of newborns submitted to TH in the period from 01/01/15 to 12/31/2015. Discussion: The TH protocol was implemented in the Unit from 01/01/2015, for all newborns older than 35 weeks, with evidence of moderate to severe HIE. TH starts in the first 6 hours of life and is performed for a period of 72 hours, after which rewarming begins, in the next 24 hours. In 2015, five newborns were submitted to the protocol. One of them died, on the fifth day of life, due to refractory shock and multiple organ failure. The other four newborns would be followed up on an outpatient basis. There was no need to stop hypothermia before 72 hours due to adverse events. The main events observed were bradycardia and shock, responsive to amines. Conclusion: The experience with TH showed good results in the medium term in newborns with moderate to severe HIE. The adverse events observed during the procedure were manageable, which suggests that TH can be an effective and safe alternative.

Abstract:
Objectives: (a) To understand the profile of cervical cancer patients attending our hospital from January 2011 till January 2015. (b) To audit the type of care given to the patients with respect to their stage at presentation. (c) To compare the outcomes of open v/s robotic radical hysterectomy done for cervical cancer. Methods: We prospectively analyzed all cases of cervical cancer from January 2011 to January 2015 presenting at our institute. Data was retrieved from patient’s records and institute’s tumor registry. We compared all patients undergoing open v/s robotic RH. All the data were analysed using SPSS version 21. Results: A total of 562 patients were treated for cervical cancer during the time period between 2011-2015. Of these there were 316 (56%) cases taken up for surgery-212 robotic RH, 104 open radical hysterectomy and rest 246 (44%) patients received definitive CCRT. Most common age group was 40-54 yrs. IB1 stage was most common presenting stage. SCC was most common histology (75%). Immediate post op complication and oncological safety in terms of local recurrence was same in both groups. However length of stay and post operative blood requirement was significantly lower in robotic RH group. 45% of all patients who underwent surgery did not require adjuvant therapy in post op period while 35% patient required post op RT and 20% CCRT. 2.2% patient had local recurrence and most of the patients were in stage IIA1 at presentation. Conclusion: Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological cancer in our hospital registry. Mostly women were in the age group of 40-54 years. Most common stage at presentation was 1B and the histology being SCC. Not many differences seen in open v/s robotic techniques of radical hysterectomy except for shorter hospital stay and less need of blood transfusion in the robotic group. Local recurrence rates are comparable in both open and robotic groups.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to gather recommendations from organizational leaders, faculty, and students as an input to curricular reform for healthcare programs. The method was a qualitative research with a focus group and interviews with 26 leaders, faculty, and students. Focus group participants were leaders who dialogued reflect on the future tasks of healthcare professionals of the future. The data from the focus group was analysed learning environment dimensions. Five themes emerged from the focus groups. Eight leaders from associations, hospitals and medical schools remarked the importance on: 1) patient centered care, emphasis on prevention and well-being, 2) professionalism and identity formation, 4) innovation, research, and technology, 5) leadership for healthcare systems. Interviews showed that biomedical contents develop critical thinking and self-directed learning. Interviewees recommended starting patient care earlier on the program. There was a significant curricular reform to address opportunities and suggestions from participants. Perspectives from different stakeholders helped to develop inter-professional education for five programs. Patient Centeredness is learned from the first year of the programs through challenge-based learning. This approach which started on August 2019 is intended to develop leaders for the improvement of the healthcare systems. Even that scientific and technological advances demand radical change for universities, there are centuries of history that restrain them. At Tecnologico de Monterrey, School of Medicine and Health Sciences an integrated curriculum with challenges for wellness instead of diseases is now a reality.

Abstract:
As a result of the fast and radical changes in Turkish health sector during the last ten years, a dual structure has emerged in Turkey. In this study we have tried to point out basic variables on which patient preferences towards getting health care from public or private sector depends, and also by what percentage these variables provide satisfaction to patients in the context of value-based health care system. By taking a poll we have measured the magnitude of health expenditures goes to public and private hospitals and in return of these expenditures, the level of satisfaction people get in the context of value-based health system. We have also tried to compare these two different kinds of hospitals by considering service quality and different prices. In health sector which is one of the biggest and basic sectors of Turkey, in order to achieve efficiency in using resources, we can benefit from the "value-based healthsystem" which will pave the way for optimum allocation of resources. Around the globe and especially in developed and rich countries like UK and USA, the "value-based health system" is getting more and more importance and having a crucial role in optimising resources in health industry. Considering the dual structure of health sector, people’s satisfaction level in comparison with their health expenditures was searched and end up with a conclusion about the satisfaction level according to prices charged by different hospitals.

Abstract:
The global far right is extremely broad in nature and far from monolithic. While the “far right” is often used as an umbrella term, using the term runs the risk of over-simplifying the differences and linkages between white supremacist, anti-immigration, nativist, and other motivating ideologies. These beliefs and political platforms fall within the far-right rubric, and too often the phrase presents a more unified image of the phenomena than is really the case. In truth, the “far right” and the individual movements that comprise it are fragmented, consisting of a number of groups that lack established leadership and cohesion. Indeed, these movements include chauvinist religious organizations, neo-fascist street gangs, and paramilitary organs of established political parties. Although such movements largely lack the mass appeal of the interwar European radical right-wing extreme, they nevertheless can inspire both premeditated and spontaneous acts of violence against perceived enemies. This report is intended to provide policymakers, practitioners, and the academic community with a roadmap of ongoing shifts in the organizational structures and ideological currents of radical right-wing extremist movements, detailing the difference between distinct, yet often connected and interlaced echelons of the far right. In particular, the report identifies and analyzes various aspects of the broader far right and the assorted grievances it leverages to recruit, which is critical to gaining a more nuanced understanding of the potential future trajectory of these movements.

Abstract:
Depuis 2013, la structure officielle de l’organe de décision sur les politiques fiscales mondiales au niveau de l’OCDE a changé. Les décisions ne sont plus prises par les 37 membres de l’OCDE, mais par 137 pays représentant toutes les régions du monde et tous les niveaux de développement à travers le ‘cadre inclusif’. Les documents officiels insistent sur le fait que tous les pays participent sur un pied d’égalité, mais certains participants et observateurs ont souligné que les pays en développement se heurtent à des obstacles d’ordre pratique qui engendrent, dans les faits, une participation inégale. Dans cette publication, nous évaluons ces déclarations principalement à partir de 48 interviews menées avec des négociateurs, des décideurs politiques et autres acteurs impliqués dans les discussions mondiales sur la fiscalité. Nous observons que l’explosion du nombre des adhésions formelles des pays en développement n’a pas suscité un changement radical sur l’influence des ces derniers. Ce que les chiffres bruts laissaient présager. Nous observons que l’explosion du nombre d’adhésions formelles n’a pas suscité le changement radical dans l’influence des pays en développement que les chiffres bruts laissaient présager. Cela s’explique par une combinaison d’obstacles structurels non spécifiques au cadre inclusif et d’aspects problématiques dans le mode de fonctionnement de l’OCDE. À ce jour, les pays à faible revenu ont tout de même obtenu quelques modestes résultats et on observe les signes d’un acheminement progressif vers une présence plus efficiente. Nous développons une typologie de mécanismes ayant engendré des résultats positifs : l’association avec les efforts des États plus puissants, l’anticipation des besoins des pays à faible revenu par le secrétariat de l’OCDE et par d’autres entités, la collaboration pour former des coalitions plus puissantes, et l’émergence de négociateurs experts ayant une autorité individuelle.

Full text
Abstract:
The Southeast Coast Network (SECN) conducts long-term terrestrial vegetation monitoring as part of the nationwide Inventory and Monitoring Program of the National Park Service (NPS). The vegetation community vital sign is one of the primary-tier resources identified by SECN park managers, and monitoring is currently conducted at 15 network parks (DeVivo et al. 2008). Monitoring plants and their associated communities over time allows for targeted understanding of ecosystems within the SECN geography, which provides managers information about the degree of change within their parks’ natural vegetation. The first year of conducting this monitoring effort at four SECN parks, including 52 plots on Cape Hatteras National Seashore (CAHA), was 2019. Twelve vegetation plots were established at Cape Hatteras NS in July and August. Data collected in each plot included species richness across multiple spatial scales, species-specific cover and constancy, species-specific woody stem seedling/sapling counts and adult tree (greater than 10 centimeters [3.9 inches {in}]) diameter at breast height (DBH), overall tree health, landform, soil, observed disturbance, and woody biomass (i.e., fuel load) estimates. This report summarizes the baseline (year 1) terrestrial vegetation data collected at Cape Hatteras National Seashore in 2019. Data were stratified across four dominant broadly defined habitats within the park (Maritime Tidal Wetlands, Maritime Nontidal Wetlands, Maritime Open Uplands, and Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands) and four land parcels (Bodie Island, Buxton, Hatteras Island, and Ocracoke Island). Noteworthy findings include: A total of 265 vascular plant taxa (species or lower) were observed across 52 vegetation plots, including 13 species not previously documented within the park. The most frequently encountered species in each broadly defined habitat included: Maritime Tidal Wetlands: saltmeadow cordgrass Spartina patens), swallow-wort (Pattalias palustre), and marsh fimbry (Fimbristylis castanea) Maritime Nontidal Wetlands: common wax-myrtle (Morella cerifera), saltmeadow cordgrass, eastern poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans var. radicans), and saw greenbriar (Smilax bona-nox) Maritime Open Uplands: sea oats (Uniola paniculata), dune camphorweed (Heterotheca subaxillaris), and seabeach evening-primrose (Oenothera humifusa) Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands: : loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), southern/eastern red cedar (Juniperus silicicola + virginiana), common wax-myrtle, and live oak (Quercus virginiana). Five invasive species identified as either a Severe Threat (Rank 1) or Significant Threat (Rank 2) to native plants by the North Carolina Native Plant Society (Buchanan 2010) were found during this monitoring effort. These species (and their overall frequency of occurrence within all plots) included: alligatorweed (Alternanthera philoxeroides; 2%), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica; 10%), Japanese stilt-grass (Microstegium vimineum; 2%), European common reed (Phragmites australis; 8%), and common chickweed (Stellaria media; 2%). Eighteen rare species tracked by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (Robinson 2018) were found during this monitoring effort, including two species—cypress panicgrass (Dichanthelium caerulescens) and Gulf Coast spikerush (Eleocharis cellulosa)—listed as State Endangered by the Plant Conservation Program of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCPCP 2010). Southern/eastern red cedar was a dominant species within the tree stratum of both Maritime Nontidal Wetland and Maritime Upland Forest and Shrubland habitat types. Other dominant tree species within CAHA forests included loblolly pine, live oak, and Darlington oak (Quercus hemisphaerica). One hundred percent of the live swamp bay (Persea palustris) trees measured in these plots were experiencing declining vigor and observed with symptoms like those caused by laurel wilt......less

HEFNER, Robert. IHSAN ETHICS AND POLITICAL REVITALIZATION Appreciating Muqtedar Khan’s Islam and Good Governance. IIIT, October 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.47816/01.001.20.

Full text
Abstract:
Ours is an age of pervasive political turbulence, and the scale of the challenge requires new thinking on politics as well as public ethics for our world. In Western countries, the specter of Islamophobia, alt-right populism, along with racialized violence has shaken public confidence in long-secure assumptions rooted in democracy, diversity, and citizenship. The tragic denouement of so many of the Arab uprisings together with the ascendance of apocalyptic extremists like Daesh and Boko Haram have caused an even greater sense of alarm in large parts of the Muslim-majority world. It is against this backdrop that M.A. Muqtedar Khan has written a book of breathtaking range and ethical beauty. The author explores the history and sociology of the Muslim world, both classic and contemporary. He does so, however, not merely to chronicle the phases of its development, but to explore just why the message of compassion, mercy, and ethical beauty so prominent in the Quran and Sunna of the Prophet came over time to be displaced by a narrow legalism that emphasized jurisprudence, punishment, and social control. In the modern era, Western Orientalists and Islamists alike have pushed the juridification and interpretive reification of Islamic ethical traditions even further. Each group has asserted that the essence of Islam lies in jurisprudence (fiqh), and both have tended to imagine this legal heritage on the model of Western positive law, according to which law is authorized, codified, and enforced by a leviathan state. “Reification of Shariah and equating of Islam and Shariah has a rather emaciating effect on Islam,” Khan rightly argues. It leads its proponents to overlook “the depth and heights of Islamic faith, mysticism, philosophy or even emotions such as divine love (Muhabba)” (13). As the sociologist of Islamic law, Sami Zubaida, has similarly observed, in all these developments one sees evidence, not of a traditionalist reassertion of Muslim values, but a “triumph of Western models” of religion and state (Zubaida 2003:135). To counteract these impoverishing trends, Khan presents a far-reaching analysis that “seeks to move away from the now failed vision of Islamic states without demanding radical secularization” (2). He does so by positioning himself squarely within the ethical and mystical legacy of the Qur’an and traditions of the Prophet. As the book’s title makes clear, the key to this effort of religious recovery is “the cosmology of Ihsan and the worldview of Al-Tasawwuf, the science of Islamic mysticism” (1-2). For Islamist activists whose models of Islam have more to do with contemporary identity politics than a deep reading of Islamic traditions, Khan’s foregrounding of Ihsan may seem unfamiliar or baffling. But one of the many achievements of this book is the skill with which it plumbs the depth of scripture, classical commentaries, and tasawwuf practices to recover and confirm the ethic that lies at their heart. “The Quran promises that God is with those who do beautiful things,” the author reminds us (Khan 2019:1). The concept of Ihsan appears 191 times in 175 verses in the Quran (110). The concept is given its richest elaboration, Khan explains, in the famous hadith of the Angel Gabriel. This tradition recounts that when Gabriel appeared before the Prophet he asked, “What is Ihsan?” Both Gabriel’s question and the Prophet’s response make clear that Ihsan is an ideal at the center of the Qur’an and Sunna of the Prophet, and that it enjoins “perfection, goodness, to better, to do beautiful things and to do righteous deeds” (3). It is this cosmological ethic that Khan argues must be restored and implemented “to develop a political philosophy … that emphasizes love over law” (2). In its expansive exploration of Islamic ethics and civilization, Khan’s Islam and Good Governance will remind some readers of the late Shahab Ahmed’s remarkable book, What is Islam? The Importance of Being Islamic (Ahmed 2016). Both are works of impressive range and spiritual depth. But whereas Ahmed stood in the humanities wing of Islamic studies, Khan is an intellectual polymath who moves easily across the Islamic sciences, social theory, and comparative politics. He brings the full weight of his effort to conclusion with policy recommendations for how “to combine Sufism with political theory” (6), and to do so in a way that recommends specific “Islamic principles that encourage good governance, and politics in pursuit of goodness” (8).

The aim of this research project was to obtain information on the role of the cytochrome b559 in the function of Photosystem-II (PSII) with special emphasis on the light induced photo inactivation of PSII and turnover of the photochemical reaction center II protein subunit RCII-D1. The major goals of this project were: 1) Isolation and sequencing of the Chlamydomonas chloroplast psbE and psbF genes encoding the cytochrome b559 a and b subunits respectively; 2) Generation of site directed mutants and testing the effect of such mutation on the function of PSII under various light conditions; 3) To obtain further information on the mechanism of the light induced degradation and replacement of the PSII core proteins. This information shall serve as a basis for the understanding of the role of the cytochrome b559 in the process of photoinhibition and recovery of photosynthetic activity as well as during low light induced turnover of the D1 protein. Unlike in other organisms in which the psbE and psbF genes encoding the a and b subunits of cytochrome b559, are part of an operon which also includes the psbL and psbJ genes, in Chlamydomonas these genes are transcribed from different regions of the chloroplast chromosome. The charge distribution of the derived amino-acid sequences of psbE and psbF gene products differs from that of the corresponding genes in other organisms as far as the rule of "positive charge in" is concerned relative to the process of the polypeptide insertion in the thylakoid membrane. However, the sum of the charges of both subunits corresponds to the above rule possibly indicating co-insertion of both subunits in the process of cytochrome b559 assembly. A plasmid designed for the introduction of site-specific mutations into the psbF gene of C. reinhardtii. was constructed. The vector consists of a DNA fragment from the chromosome of C. reinhardtii which spans the region of the psbF gene, upstream of which the spectinomycin-resistance-conferring aadA cassette was inserted. This vector was successfully used to transform wild type C. reinhardtii cells. The spectinomycin resistant strain thus obtained can grow autotrophically and does not show significant changes as compared to the wild-type strain in PSII activity. The following mutations have been introduced in the psbF gene: H23M; H23Y; W19L and W19. The replacement of H23 involved in the heme binding to M and Y was meant to permit heme binding but eventually alter some or all of the electron transport properties of the mutated cytochrome. Tryptophane W19, a strictly conserved residue, is proximal to the heme and may interact with the tetrapyrole ring. Therefore its replacement may effect the heme properties. A change to tyrosine may have a lesser affect on the potential or electron transfer rate while a replacement of W19 by leucine is meant to introduce a more prominent disturbance in these parameters. Two of the mutants, FW19L and FH23M have segregated already and are homoplasmic. The rest are still grown under selection conditions until complete segregation will be obtained. All mutants contain assembled and functional PSII exhibiting an increased sensitivity of PSII to the light. Work is still in progress for the detailed characterization of the mutants PSII properties. A tobacco mutant, S6, obtained by Maliga and coworkers harboring the F26S mutation in the b subunit was made available to us and was characterized. Measurements of PSII charge separation and recombination, polypeptide content and electron flow indicates that this mutation indeed results in light sensitivity. Presently further work is in progress in the detailed characterization of the properties of all the above mutants. Information was obtained demonstrating that photoinactivation of PSII in vivo initiates a series of progressive changes in the properties of RCII which result in an irreversible modification of the RCII-D1 protein leading to its degradation and replacement. The cleavage process of the modified RCII-D1 protein is regulated by the occupancy of the QB site of RCII by plastoquinone. Newly synthesized D1 protein is not accumulated in a stable form unless integrated in reassembled RCII. Thus the degradation of the irreversibly modified RCII-D1 protein is essential for the recovery process. The light induced degradation of the RCII-D1 protein is rapid in mutants lacking the pD1 processing protease such as in the LF-1 mutant of the unicellular alga Scenedesmus obliquus. In this case the Mn binding site of PSII is abolished, the water oxidation process is inhibited and harmful cation radicals are formed following light induced electron flow in PSII. In such mutants photo-inactivation of PSII is rapid, it is not protected by ligands binding at the QB site and the degradation of the inactivated RCII-D1 occurs rapidly also in the dark. Furthermore the degraded D1 protein can be replaced in the dark in absence of light driven redox controlled reactions. The replacement of the RCII-D1 protein involves the de novo synthesis of the precursor protein, pD1, and its processing at the C-terminus end by an unknown processing protease. In the frame of this work, a gene previously isolated and sequenced by Dr. Pakrasi's group has been identified as encoding the RCII-pD1 C-terminus processing protease in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The deduced sequence of the ctpA protein shows significant similarity to the bovine, human and insect interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding proteins. Results obtained using C. reinhardtii cells exposes to low light or series of single turnover light flashes have been also obtained indicating that the process of RCII-D1 protein turnover under non-photoinactivating conditions (low light) may be related to charge recombination in RCII due to back electron flow from the semiquinone QB- to the oxidised S2,3 states of the Mn cluster involved in the water oxidation process.
