Abstract:

Multiple bereaved adult children, as siblings, have rarely been studied. We expand the paradigm of bereavement research to explore the ways that two sisters describe the experience and meaning of the death of their elderly father. The two sisters each participated in two separate qualitative ethnographic interviews, followed by standard qualitative analyses of the transcribed narratives. The findings yield contrasting perspectives of the sisters' disparate views of their family, of their father, and their views of each other, that provide insight into the complexity of the sharp differences in

Abstract:

We report the case of an Italian family in which three sisters experienced transient global amnesia (TGA). Since its early description, this transitory pure memory deficit has attracted increasing interest, especially within the neurological community. In 1964 the term “TGA” was coined to identify the abrupt onset of anterograde amnesia, accompanied by repetitive queries lasting for hours and then gradually recovering, leaving an amnesic gap for the duration of the attack. Afterwards, many studies focused on TGA, and in 1990 clinical criteria were defined by Hodges and Warlow (1990). Further s

Abstract:

Since Jessica Mitford’s 1963 scathing critique of the mortuary business in the United States, there has been an ongoing debate about how best to honor and dispose of the dead in ways that do not exploit people. However, the backlash to predatory mortuary practices led to an impersonal and detached process culminating in online purchasing of post-mortem services. More recently, this discussion has expanded to consider the resulting psychological and spiritual detachment around end-of-life, and a return to natural, simple, and fully engaged burial practices, known as “Green Burial”, are being re

Abstract:

The present study intends to look at the ways in which humour enacts modes of knowledge and self-expression in Katherine Mansfield’s short story “The Daughters of the Late Colonel” (1921). The story revolves around two spinsterly sisters who have spent most of their lives tending to their tyrannical father and now find themselves at a loss when they are finally free of him. The narrative is both sympathetic and merciless towards the sisters’ fumbling attempts at independence, but the women are often in on the joke; humour is both a “black dressing-gown” which envelops the sisters and renders t

Abstract:

Abstract The deaths of family members constitute one of the most serious negative life events experienced in adulthood. The impact of these losses on psychological well-being may differ considerably by the structural relationship between the deceased and the survivors, and by the genders of both family members; however, few studies have been able to explore these variations by generation, gender, and time since death. In this paper, we use mixed-methods data to explore how depressive symptoms are affected differentially in adulthood by the deaths of mothers, fathers, and siblings, as well as b

Abstract:

Elders are more likely to confront the death of a sibling than any other kinship bereavement. Yet we know almost nothing about the impact of sibling deaths on older adults. We used attachment theory to generate hypotheses about the impact of this life event on physical health, mood, social support, and economic outcomes in late life. At the Duke University site of a large multi-center epidemiologic study (EPESE), 3173 elderly community-dwellers provided data on bereavements experienced in the past year as well as on demographic, health-related, and socioeconomic characteristics.

We provide the 41-year follow up of two siblings with a late-onset cblC defect, first described after initial diagnosis in 1996. While one of the siblings showed initial symptoms resembling multiple sclerosis with a good response to corticosteroids, the other sister showed only subclinical signs of the disease.

Abstract In marked contrast to contemporary eighteenth-century cultural and political inscriptions of the body, the Moravians articulated a radical body dialectic in which the natural manifestations of manhood and womanhood were considered to be integral elements of manifested spiritual consciousness. However, the positive corporeality of eighteenth-century Moravian faith attracted fierce criticism to the group, as the hyper-realistic linguistic and artistic depictions of the significance of the crucified Christ gave rise to virulent attacks on the ethical practices of the Moravian Church.

The central aim of this study was to explore the meaning of death as both a literal and an imaginative reality, and to elucidate the fundamental tensions between these meanings of death in modern existence. Recognition was given to the need for a poetic rather than a scientific approach to thanatology, and an epistemological foundation for a poetics of death was sought in the tradition of gnosis. Theoretically, the study was grounded in the analytical psychology of C.G. Jung. It was argued that despite Jung's erratic allegiance to a Cartesian ontology and epistemology, his approach to death wa

People’s lives have been severely disrupted by COVID-19, with high numbers in hospitals and many deaths after the initial outbreak in China. If the efforts of many statistics educators were fulfilled to increase the number of statistically literate citizens who can make evidence-based decisions based on accurate data, we may have had lower infection and death rates. Unfortunately, the data is rather unreliable, especially with the use of self-testing and reporting. In this paper, we assert that statistics requires context to quantify risk. We present data and a summary of developments in Austr

Abstract:

Abstract Intimal thickening and thrombi formation in medium to large blood vessels due to atherosclerotic lesions and/or intimal hyperplasia are the leading causes of death in the western world. Balloon angioplasty with stenting, bypass surgery and patch reconstruction are some of the mechanical techniques currently applied to reopen or bypass occluded blood vessels. Thus, it is of interest to develop suitable indicator functions which encapsulate aggravating flow patterns, in order to determine susceptible sites of intimal thickening and/or thrombi formation. These indicator functions are the

Abstract:

Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is a contagious bacterial infection that can occur sporadically in healthy individuals. Symptoms are typically similar to other common diseases, which can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment until patients are critically ill. In the United States, IMD outbreaks are rare and unpredictable. During an outbreak, rapidly marshalling the personnel and monetary resources to respond is paramount to controlling disease spread. If a community lacks necessary resources for a quick and efficient outbreak response, the resulting economic cost can be overwhelming.

Abstract:

Applied demography involves using the knowledge gained from analyzing and understanding populations in order to manage them effectively. The synthesis reviews basic concepts of demography and their application to management of wild populations. There are several major drivers of population change that operate in different ways, including birth rates, death rates, changes in sex ratios, and migration. These concepts can be formalized into mathematical population models that can be used to make predictions about populations under different management scenarios. Four case studies (including the G

Abstract:

Objectives. Diagnostic errors are a known patient safety concern across all clinical settings, including the emergency department (ED). We conducted a systematic review to determine the most frequent diseases and clinical presentations associated with diagnostic errors (and resulting harms) in the ED, measure error and harm frequency, as well as assess causal factors. Methods. We searched PubMed®, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL®), and Embase® from January 2000 through September 2021. We included research studies and targeted grey literature reporting diagnosti

Abstract:

In low-resource settings, obtaining accurate weight-for-height Z-scores can be challenging. This is due to factors such as the lack of equipment to measure height and weight accurately and the minimal training of community health workers. To address this issue, the Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) serves as a simple tool to identify wasted children. However, some researchers and practitioners argue that relying solely on MUAC may fail to identify many wasted children, leading to delayed intervention and potential death. This study aims to determine the most effective MUAC cutoffs for accurat

Abstract:

Despite marked progress in improving nutrition and health globally, micronutrient deficiencies remain prevalent in low and middle income countries (LMIC), especially among pregnant women with far-reaching consequences for mother and baby including preterm birth, stillbirth or neonatal death, impaired fetal growth. Multiple micronutrient supplements (MMS) taken during pregnancy provide 15 vitamins and minerals to fill the dietary gaps often present in LMIC and the increased nutrient needs of pregnancy. Crucially, MMS provide benefits far beyond those of traditional iron and folic acid supplemen
