Authors: PAL ARNA , CHAKRABORTY SUDIPTA , BALA N. N.
Published: March 2022

Objective: The present study aims at the investigation of antioxidant activities both by qualitative (thin-layer chromatography [TLC] bioautography) and quantitative (in vitro) methods and thereby comparison of the same in different parts of the plants of Clitoria ternatea (Fabaceae).
Methods: Leaves, stems, and seeds were macerated with methanol separately and preliminary phytochemical screening was carried out. The extracts were developed using two mobile phase combinations such as Toluene: Ethyl acetate: Formic acid (5:4:0.2) for test 1 and toluene: Ethyl acetate: Methanol (5:3:2) for test 2 on silica gel GF254 TLC plates and further sprayed with DPPH. Antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities were assayed by inhibition of lipid peroxidation and DPPH method with the different concentrations of test extracts (25, 50, 100, 150 and 200 μg/ml) and standard ascorbic acid.
Results: The methanolic extract of the leaves, stems, and seeds revealed to possess chiefly alkaloids, phenols, and flavonoids and have shown promising antioxidant activity by all the methods in dose-dependent manner. Leaves were found to be most potent having IC50 value of 111.652 µg/ml and 106.683 µg/ml which is almost similar to the stems (IC50 of 111.685 µg/ml and 106.26 µg/ml), respectively, in DPPH method and inhibition of lipid peroxidation. Seeds failed to produce any significant activity in any of the methods performed.
Conclusion: The methanolic extract of leaves and stems can act as a potential antioxidant and antiradical, which are highly comparable with standard.
ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN THERAPEUTIC REGIMEN-RELATED FACTORS AND MEDICATION ADHERENCE IN PATIENTS ON ORAL ANTICANCER THERAPY
Authors: MIR SHAKEEL AHMAD
Published: March 2022

Objective: Good adherence is critical for successful cancer treatment. Complex medication regimens have been found among the various therapy-related factors causing non-adherence.
Methods: In a cross-sectional questionnaire-based study of outpatients, we assessed 75 patients suffering from cancer. The objective of this study is to find associations between therapeutic regimen-related factors and medication adherence in patients on oral anticancer therapy.
Results: There was an increase in medication adherence as the length of therapy increased. About 10.76% of the patients with treatment duration <4 years showed low adherence. Low adherence was not observed with treatment duration of more than 4 years. About 6.55% of those taking up to four drugs had low adherence as compared to 14.28% taking more than 4 drugs. About 8.69% of patients taking drugs up to thrice a day showed low adherence as compared to 16.66% taking more than thrice a day. The negative associations between medication regimen complexity and adherence observed in this study were in the predicted direction but did not achieve statistical significance (p>0.05). The effect size was small (d=0.28)
Conclusion: Complex prescription regimens reduce adherence to oral anticancer treatments, however, there are several other factors to consider than regimen simplification to increase adherence.

Authors: BHARTIYA JAI PRAKASH , CHAUDHARY VIJAY , SINGH ALKA , KATHARIYA GOBARDHAN
Published: March 2022

Objective: Iron stores in the body exist primarily in the form of ferritin. Iron deficiency anemia is the state where iron level is below normal, low transferrin saturation and ferritin as well as high iron binding capacity. National Family Health Survey-3 shows the prevalence of anemia in 56.2% of women of 15–49 year, 79.2% among children aged 6–35 months, 57.9% in pregnant women.
Methods: 50 (apparently healthy female students of the medical college) were included in the study. Ferritin level was estimated by Advia Centaur XP Immunoassay System.
Results: About 50% of non-vegetarian and about 79% of vegetarian were anemic. Ferritin level among non-vegetarians was significantly higher than vegetarians.
Discussion: Although vegetarian lifestyle has great advantages, vegetarians do have a high risk of a deficiency of some nutrients, including iron. The most readily absorbed type of iron is hemiron which comes from meat, poultry, and fish. Furthermore, plant foods contain several iron-absorption inhibitors. Getting enough iron from non-hemiron sources can be a challenge. Iron requirements for vegetarians are about 1.8 times higher, compared to non-vegetarians.
Conclusion: This form of malnutrition is most common and one of the leading causes of disease among girls and women in developing countries. Knowing about ferritin level will help understand iron status and thus avoiding the disease.

Published: March 2022

Objective: Objective of the study was to investigate the safety, efficacy, and antipsoriatic activity of topical cream enriched with Nanostructured Lipid Carriers (NLC) of Azadirachta indica, Lawsonia inermis, and Mallotus philippensis through the controlled clinical study.
Methods: The randomized controlled trial was performed for 12 months on 65 adult patients between the age group 20 and 60 years of either sex of diagnosed, uncomplicated cases of psoriasis Vulgaris. The Test group received a local application of the herbal antipsoriatic NLC enriched cream, while the Control group was treated with Clobetasol propionate 0.05% cream twice daily for 3 months. Both groups were assessed for parameters of skin and nail examinations, lab investigation, and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score. The data were analyzed and interpreted statistically.
Results: Significant improvement in itching and PASI score was seen during successive visits in both groups. However, recurrence of mild itching and erythema in a few patients of the control group was seen after 2 weeks, whereas no such recurrence is seen in the test group. Statistically significant reduction in eosinophilia in the control group was observed before and after treatment. The efficacy of clobetasol in the control group and the prepared formulation in the test group both show statistical efficacy at par.
Conclusion: The data suggest that the NLC enriched cream exhibited significant relief in all the symptoms of psoriasis and therefore can be used as a potent antipsoriatic agent due to the easy availability of the drugs and cultural affinity for herbal formulations.

Authors: SURYA LAVANYA POOSARLA VENKATA , GANESH MYLAPURAM VENKATA , LAKSHMI AMBATI SANTOSHA
Published: March 2022

Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare routinely used cuff insufflation techniques to finger-pressure and minimal leak procedures for achieving safe endotracheal tube (ETT) intracuff pressures in patients undergoing endotracheal intubation.
Methods: It is a prospective observational study conducted in patients undergoing elective surgical procedures under general anaesthesia at GITAM Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Visakhapatnam from January 2019 to June 2020. In Group FP, which includes 50 patients, the ETT cuff (ETTc) was inflated by palpating the pilot balloon between the index finger and thumb until it became taut. When this point was reached, the syringe was detached from the pilot balloon, and a cuff manometer was attached. The pressure reading on the cuff manometer is noted. In Group ML, which includes 50 patients, the ETTc was inflated fully, and then the air was withdrawn slowly from the cuff with auscultation over the trachea until a small leak was heard. When the point was reached, the syringe was detached, and a cuff manometer was attached; pressure readings were noted.
Results: Mean inflation cuff pressure in the FP group was 45.40±21.74 cm H2O and in the ML group was 28.68±8.35 cm H2O. In Group FP, out of 50 patients, cuff pressure in 14 (28%) patients was in the normal range; in 32 (64%) patients, the cuff was over inflated, and in 4 patients (8%) cuff was under inflated. In the group ML, 24 (48%) patients have cuff pressure within the normal range; in 18 (36%) patients, the cuff has been over inflated, and 8 (16%) patients have low cuff pressures. Cuff pressure adjustment was required in 36 patients (72%) in the FP group, whereas 26 patients (52%) in the ML group. ML group has a low incidence of postoperative complications, i.e., 10%, compared to the FP group, i.e., 18%. A positive correlation was seen between the measured cuff pressure and body mass index, Volume of air insufflated.
Conclusion: The main conclusion is to realize the need to use manometers or better-automated controllers during routine anaesthetic procedures.
ASSESSMENT OF KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE, AND PRACTICE OF HAEMOVIGILANCE AMONG POST-GRADUATES AT A TERTIARY CARE TEACHING HOSPITAL IN HYDERABAD–A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
Authors: KASUKURTHI SWARUPA RANI , T CHAKRADHAR , RANI AITHA SWETHA , E BHUVANESHWARI , MARPAKA SRAVANI
Published: March 2022

Objective: Transfusion of blood and blood products is a life-saving intervention but has the potential to cause adverse events. Haemovigilance is an organized system that includes monitoring, identification, reporting, investigating, and analyzing adverse events related to transfusion and the manufacture of blood products. However, reporting of adverse reactions is markedly less in our country. This study is intended to assess knowledge, attitude, and practice of Haemovigilance among post-graduates (PGs) and to scrutinize various causes of Underreporting.
Methods: A cross-sectional pre-validated questionnaire-based study was carried out in Osmania medical college and hospital, Hyderabad over 4 months among 150 PGs.
Results: Only120 PGs out of 150, provided their responses. Only 20% of the PGs knew about the Haemovigilance program. 41.6% knew how to report and who can report. 2% knew about Hemo-vigil and Donor vigil software. 100% of PGs show a positive attitude towards transfusion reaction reporting and agreed that Haemovigilance activities should include in the undergraduate curriculum. Medicolegal liability issues, lack of knowledge, and lack of time were the main factors that forbade them from reporting.
Conclusion: A positive attitude towards Haemovigilance exists among PGs but knowledge regarding the Haemovigilance program was poor and the practice of transfusion reactions reporting was significantly reduced. Hence, our study suggests the inclusion of the procedure of transfusion reactions reporting in the Undergraduate curriculum and augmentation of CMEs/workshops/seminars to PGs.

"El presente libro contiene tres ejes de análisis transversal. El primero, aborda la experiencia de desarrollo económico de Japón, el cual transitó de un modelo de alto crecimiento sostenido a un patrón de menor rendimiento, pero con una gran internacionalización de sus esquemas productivos y de flujos de capital. El segundo vector analiza las respuestas de política exterior que el gobierno japonés ha tenido frente a los cambios en la arquitectura comercial y financiera en el Asia Pacífico, sobre todo ante el ascenso de China como una potencia económica pero también frente a los esquemas emergentes para la búsqueda de un proceso de liberalización económica regional de manera comprehensiva, cuyo primer paso, indudablemente, lo representa la negociación integrada por 12 países del Acuerdo de Asociación Transpacífico (mejor conocido por sus siglas en inglés TPP). El tercero y último se enfoca a realizar un balance de la iniciativa denominada ""Abenomics"", presentada por el primer ministro Shinzo Abe, como un mecanismo para enfrentar el largo ciclo de bajo crecimiento y atender los retos emergentes de la sociedad japonesa. Los diez coautores que participan en la obra convergen en la idea de realizar una reflexión sobre cómo Japón ha transitado y enfrentado los apresurados cambios dentro de la economía internacional contemporánea - ahora más globalizada - en las últimas siete décadas que han sido testigos de las más profundas e intensas transformaciones que el mundo ha tenido desde la era moderna. En este sentido, es claro que para el gobierno japonés, tanto la Abenomics como el TPP posiblemente representen las respuestas más viables, pero no las únicas, para restaurar paulatinamente la salud económica y contener el desgaste del pacto de bienestar social al que el pueblo japonés pudo gozar en la Posguerra. Ese es el gran reto que en el plano interno e internacional enfrenta el gobierno de Shinzō Abe."
Construction Paradigms: A Review on Web-based Project Management
Authors: Senani Anurag
Published: March 2022

Abstract: Project managers in the modern construction sector are working in an environment where their core duties and functions are gradually shifting. Project managers may use their knowledge and experience earned via experience and training to adapt to the ever-changing environment and keep their professional skills operating. The study focuses on a novel web-based project management technique. It illustrates the dangers in existing project management approaches, as well as the problems they are obliged to face as projects get more complicated. Currently, all levels of government, industry, and consumrs are attempting to make a difference in the construction sector to improve quality, competitiveness, profit, and customer value. The findings of this research will show how web-enabled project management and the features that come with it are inextricably linked to accomplishing the goals of all parties involved. However, it emphasises that to properly adopt web-enabled project management, technology, procedures, and people must all be given equal weight. Construction businesses may enhance their overall project performance by enhancing their project's competences by understanding the relationship between the project's core capabilities and key performance indicators. The construction sector must examine the impact of technology on personnel and processes, as well as technology in addition to knowledge management, to incorporate web-enabled solutions for managing projects on a big scale. Existing procedures must be made more efficient and updated to take use of new technologies. Construction businesses will find it difficult to deploy web-based technologies if they do not fully understand the problems of change management and how to get everyone on board.

India\'s Administrative Training for Civil Servants Includes Environmental Sustainability
Authors: Pathak Anshul
Published: March 2022

Abstract: There is no way to anticipate what India's environmental impact will be in the next years. It is undeniable that climate change has had an impact on India in terms of difficult climatic conditions, availability of water and energy, agricultural challenges, natural disasters, and other factors. India is particularly vulnerable to climate change due to the fact that it is a major source of carbon dioxide emissions. According to the objectives of this study article, the causes for the lack of environmental sustainability as an intrinsic structure of the environment in administrative training colleges in India will be identified and explored in this article. In order to be effective, an environmental manual for training officers must be wellorganized and put into effect immediately rather than later in the future. During the United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP-26), India committed to increasing renewable energy generation to 500 gigatonnes (GW) by 2030. Promoting solar energy, on the other hand, involves the provision of subsidies for domestic solar panel makers, which has prompted solar panel manufacturers in the United States to submit objections with the WTO. During such times, the task of senior civil servants involved in policymaking across a wide range of ministries and departments becomes more complex than it has ever been. Indian civil service training has traditionally focused on teaching administrative principles and legal requirements, filing-drafting abilities, the fundamentals of public administration, and more recently, computer training and e-governance to civil servants in the country. As part of this effort, the article seeks to emphasise the need of environmental sustainability training for public employees during their foundational pre-service training, mid-service training, and executive training development programmes for senior bureaucrats and officials. The purpose is to gain a better understanding of the existing condition of administrative training in India, including how much emphasis is placed on environmental sustainability and what additional curricular modules and programmes are required.

Slab Culvert Design as a Review
Authors: Meghe Mr. Arvind , Parekar Mr. Samyak , Gajghate Mr. Vishal
Published: March 2022

Abstract: Culverts are the monolithic structure made to pass across a roadway, railway lines etc. Soil strengthening is most to balance the flood water on both sides. It follows the traffic, water deigning, walking purpose, and any other activity is taken on culverts. The risk follow water level and up word and downward flooding is most important earth to reduce, water level reducing risk for the flooding. The structures to accomplish such water flow and traffic flow without any disturbance flow across the road are called culverts, small and major bridges depending on their span such as major span, lesser span it is totally depend on water flowing discharge. Culverts are commonly used both as cross drains for channel release and to pass water under a road at natural drainage and river crossings. Drains can be of changed forms such as circular arch, span, flat slab etc. Culverts can be built with different substantial material such as masonry, concrete, Bricks, stone or reinforced cement concrete. The structural elements are required to be designed to withstand to safety point and design structure and economical with all criteria are competed such as maximum bending moment and shear force. This research Paper provides full thoughts on the provisions in the Codes, design criteria, considerations and justification of all the above aspects on design. Culverts are required to be provided under earth embankment for crossing of water course like streams, Nallas across the embankment as road embankment cannot be allowed to obstruct the natural water way without any obstruction. The structural design involves consideration of load cases Slab empty, full, surcharge loads and design criteria are covered. And factors like live load, actual width, braking force, dispersal of load through fill, impact factor, co-efficient of earth compression etc. Applicable IRC Codes are compulsory to be mentioned in the examination and design of Slab ducts. The aim of this project is to analyse the Slab Culvert using STAAD PRO software. The structural basics of Slab Culvert are designed to resist maximum bending moment and shear force. The results obtained from STAAD in Research paper are almost similar to manual calculations as per the authors are suggested. The factor consideration cushion Depth, coefficient of earth pressure for lateral pressures on walls, width or angle of dispersion for live loads on Slab without cushion and with cushion for structural deformations are important items. The IS standard requirements in the design manual for roads and bridges (IRC-6-2000, IS 21- 2000) is used in the structural designing of concrete Slab Culverts.

Importance of Proteomics in Bioremediation
Authors: Sankpal Nikita
Published: March 2022

Abstract: Bioremediation can be used to help clean up contaminated regions today since environmental contamination is a major issue. The use of microbial mediated bioremediation offers a lot of potential for effectively restoring a polluted environment, but a lack of detail about the parameters that determine whether certain microbial communities can grow and reproduce in a polluted environment makes this kind of bioremediation challenging. Transcriptomics, proteomics, and interactomics are flourishing fields that hold great potential for addressing long-standing issues about the molecular mechanisms that drive the mineralization pathway. With the aid of microarray technology, transcriptomic approaches have been applied to study the structure and expression of transcripts during mineralisation. However, transcripts cannot generally cause any physiological effect; instead, they must be translated into proteins with significant functions. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) is a powerful tool for identifying these proteins via proteomic techniques. The current advancements in mass spectrometry (MS) and protein microarrays are playing an important role in functional proteomics. A comprehensive genome-wide analysis of differentially expressed proteins and a screen for proteins that interact with specific mineralization factors would allow us to gain a better understanding of bioremediation.

Abstract: In construction sites there is a use of dumper for loading and unloading a material like sand, gravels, and other infrastructure materials. But they still used manual operated conventional dumper to dump the materials. they are dump material only in one side only that is rear side and that’s the reason sometimes it’s quite difficult to dump material in some compact places where the convention dumper is difficult to used. And this research paper mainly focused on above mentioned difficulty. To deal with this we are making a automatic three way pneumatic dumper mechanism so that they can be dump material in rear side as well as left and right direction also. and with the help of Arduino software the motion of the dumper can automated instead of manual use. It can be reduce labour work, save time, and increase the workability. Keywords: Arduino software, conventional, automated, pneumatic dumper, compact.

Abstract: In this project, we are going to measure the force applied by a headphone on a human ear. For this, we are using FSR (Force Sensitive Resistor) to measure the force. The FSR is interfaced with Arduino Uno for the required purpose along with a 10 km ohm resistor (pull down resistor). The resistance offered is a sum of two resistances means FSR resistance + pull down resistor's resistance which fluctuates between 100 Kohm to 10 Kohm . Also a LCD display connected with a variable 10 Kohm resistor is used to display the force value in Newton. We have taken 2 readings of each different headset one is the maximum value observed and second is the minimum value observed. A mean is taken of these two values and an overall mean of all values of different headsets is taken. Hence the value got, is an average suitable value that a headphone should apply on human ears so that they can be worn for a longer period of time.

Aim: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of pomegranate and orange peel crude extract on fish ham quality in terms of biochemical, microbiological, and sensory parameters under cold storage (-18±2oC). Methodology: The crude extracts were extracted from dry powder of orange and pomegranate peel using absolute ethanol as solvents. The extracts were standardized in the mackerel cooked meat model system to determine the concentration for the final products. Fish ham was prepared using red meat of tuna (Thunnus albacares) and white meat of bull’s eye fish (Priacanthus hamrur). The prepared fish ham was treated with 2000 mg l-1 of pomegranate and orange peel extracts and stored under frozen conditions. Results: The results obtained were compared with a control sample containing synthetic antioxidant Butylated hydroxyanisole. The results showed that pomegranate and orange peel extracts significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the lipid oxidation and microbial activity. The results of biochemical studies revealed that there was a considerable increase in the quality parameter in all treated samples. The fish ham treated with pomegranate peel extract, orange peel extracts showed formation slower primary, secondary oxidation products and breakdown of nitrogenous compounds. Interpretation: Pomegranate and orange peel can be a substitute for synthetic antioxidants. These findings suggest that the pomegranate and orange peel serve as a choice to use as a food antioxidant for extending the shelf life of fish fishery products.

Aim: To evaluate the hepatoprotective activity of extract and silver nanoparticles of Dodonaea viscose leaves against hepatocellular carcinoma in male rats. Methodology: Eighty adult Wistar male rats were exposed to N-nitrosodiethylamine to induce hepatocellular carcinoma and allocated in different groups supplemented with 125, 250 and 500 mg kg-1 b.wt. of Dodonaea viscosa (DVLE) and DVLE-AgNPs for 12 weeks. Liver samples of treated groups were used to estimate the activities of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and albumin levels. DNA damage, DNA adducts, ROS generation, apoptosis rate, and the expression analysis of the genes associated with the apoptosis (Bcls, Bax and p53) were also determined. Results: HCC group exhibited alterations in the activities of ALT, AST, GPx and levels of albumin compared with the control group. High rates of DNA damage, DNA adducts and ROS generations as well as changes in the apoptosis rates and the expression levels of Bcls, Bax and p53 genes were observed in HCC-induced rats compared with those in control group. DVLE and DVLE-AgNPs prevented the NDEA action on liver damage in a dose-dependent manner by reducing the alteration in the enzymatic and protein levels, decrease ROS generation, diminish genetic toxicity (DNA damage and DNA adducts), increased the apoptosis rate and suppressed the expression changes of Bcls, Bax and p53 genes. Interpretation: The action mechanism of DVLE and DVLE-AgNPs could probably attribute to the presence of polyphenolic and sesquiterpenes which are considered as potent inhibitors of cancer progression of liver cells.

The fracture behavior of ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix
composites at high temperature has received increasing attention.
However, few studies consider the effect of particle/crack interaction
on the high temperature fracture strength. In this work, based on the
energy storage capacity, energy balance method and fracture theory, the
effect of particle/crack interaction is introduced into a
temperature-dependent fracture strength model of monolithic ultra-high
temperature ceramic matrix composites, which also considers effects of
flaw size, grain size and residual thermal stress. Furthermore, by
considering the influence of the laminated structure, a theoretical
characterization model of the temperature-dependent fracture strength of
laminated ceramic matrix composites is developed. The effect of
particle/crack interaction is also included in this model. It should be
noted that the predictions of the models agree well with the
experimental data of both monolithic and laminated materials without
using any fitting parameters. The effect of particle/crack interaction
is found to have a significant weakening effect on the strength of
materials at different temperatures. The theoretical models only need
some simple basic material parameters to predict the fracture strength
and mechanisms of ceramic matrix composites at high temperature, which
have important practical significance for engineering applications.

Aikuiset lapset muistisairaan vanhemman kotona asumisen mahdollistajina
Authors: Halonen Ulla
Published: March 2022

Väestön vanhetessa ja muistisairauksien lisääntyessä aikuisten lasten merkitys muistisairaan vanhempansa kotona asumisen mahdollistajina vahvistuu. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan aikuisten lasten muistisairaalle vanhemmalleen antamaa apua ja hoivaa sekä niiden antamiseen tarvittavaa tukea. Lisäksi tutkitaan, mistä aikuiset lapset ovat saaneet tukea vanhemman hoivaamiseen ja miten eri tahoilta saatava tuki ja palvelut vastaavat tuen tarpeisiin. Tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin puhelinhaastatteluilla eri puolilla Suomea asuvilta aikuisilta lapsilta (n=20). Analyysimetodina oli laadullinen sisällönanalyysi. Tutkimus osoittaa, että aikuisilla lapsilla on tärkeä rooli sairastuneen vanhempansa arjen sujuvuuden seuraajina ja käytännön asioiden hoitajina. Merkittävä osa huolenpidosta kohdistuu kokonaisuuden koordinointiin. Tutkimuksen mukaan aikuisten lasten tuen tarpeet ovat yksilöllisiä, ja niihin vaikuttavat sairastuneen toimintakyky ja asumismuoto sekä autettavan ja aikuisen lapsen mahdollisesti saama tuki tai palvelu. Eniten kaivataan tukea sairauteen liittyviin tietoihin ja taitoihin sekä henkisen hyvinvoinnin ylläpitämiseen ja palveluohjausta palveluiden koordinointiin. Aikuisten lasten tuen tarpeet tulee huomioida aiempaa paremmin, jotta he voivat toimia vanhempansa kotona asumisen mahdollistajina.
Adult children enabling a parent with memory disease to live at home
As the population is aging and memory disorders are increasing, the role of adult children in enabling an elderly parent with memory disease to live at home is increasing. This study examines the situations of adult children caring for their parents with memory disease living at home, and their needs for support and services. In addition, it analyzes where adult children have received support and services, and how various sources of support meet their needs. The study data were collected through telephone interviews with adult children who live throughout Finland (n=20). The data were analyzed by theory-based content analysis. The results of the study show that the bulk of adult children’s care-giving focuses mostly on everyday practical matters. In addition, adult children play a significant role in coordinating services for their parents. Some of the family members felt that they carried complete responsibility for their impaired parent’s everyday care. According to the study, adult children’s needs for support greatly affect the life situation of the parent and their family, the parent’s functional ability, and the possibility to receive support and other services for both the parent and the family. Support is needed the most in regards to information and practical knowledge of the disease, mental health maintenance and coordinating services. Better observation of the adult child’s caregiving and support needs would aid them in enabling their parent to remain living at home.
Dusting for Fingerprints
Authors: Caswell Michelle
Published: March 2022

This article argues that feminist standpoint epistemologies help us rethink both the process by which archival value is determined and the archivists’ role in that process, leading towards a new methodology, epistemology, and political strategy for appraisal, which I call “feminist standpoint appraisal.” Feminist standpoint appraisal inverts dominant appraisal hierarchies that value records created by those in power to justify and consolidate their power at the expense of records created by the oppressed to document and resist their oppression and imagine liberation. As such, feminist standpoint appraisal explicitly and unapologetically gives epistemological weight (thereby assigning value to) records created and preserved by, and potentially activated in service to, those individuals and communities oppressed by capitalism, white supremacy, and patriarchy. Furthermore, feminist standpoint appraisal shifts our thinking about the position of the archivist, from a purportedly objective “view from nowhere” (which in fact belies a dominant but unnamed white male position), towards a socially located, culturally situated agent who centers ways of being and knowing from the margins. In valuing the unique insights gleaned by people on the margins, feminist standpoint appraisal refuses the notion that archivists from oppressed communities must overcome their positionalities to meet institutional goals and professional demands for neutrality, but rather, values and leverages the insights gained from outsider status, viewing the attendant insights as assets, rather than as detriments, to the archival endeavor. Furthermore, feminist standpoint appraisal calls on archivists who inhabit dominant identities to acknowledge their oppressor standpoints and actively work to dismantle them.

The Politics of Being an Archival Donor
Authors: Carbajal Itza A.
Published: March 2022

Traditional archival praxis oftentimes depicts the archival donor as an observer and recipient of services or benefits. One that can either comply with the rules and expectations set forth by the archivist and archival institution when donating their materials or walk away from the process and opportunity. Despite the historic role of donor contributions in the form of archival donations, donors and their needs remain overlooked in much of the archival literature. Instead, current archival paradigms tend to focus more on the archival materials more so than the people behind them. But what if donors and archivists could reimagine their relationship and the ethical obligations associated with this bond?

This article applies Michelle Caswell and Marika Cifor’s archival theory of radical empathy combined with the theoretical framework of political consciousness as set forth by Black feminism. Using these frameworks, the research study uses a mixed method approach that includes a literature review of relationships in the archival field and a qualitative conventional content analysis of collected interview data from the donor case study of living music artist donors. As archivists seek to improve collection development and acquisition practices more attention must be placed on the care, affirmation, and wellbeing of the archival donor. Through collaboration with donors, archivists can strengthen archival practices by centering people and not just the things. By combining an ethics of care which introduces “a web of mutual affective responsibility” alongside the construction of a donor political consciousness, this article shows how donor participation contributes and strengthen archival practices that center people and not just things. The article and findings offer a distinct pathway to better understand the challenges, limitations, and possibilities of donor relationships and the benefits of donors recognizing the importance of active participation and understanding of their role in the archival process.
