Atmospheric Archives: Gender and Climate Knowledge in Colonial Tasmania
Authors: Mercer Harriet 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
There is a rich cache of letters detailing the production of climate knowledge at Tasmania's Hobart Observatory in the early nineteenth century. By contrast, a mere handful of sentences survive in the written record to describe the production of climate knowledge outside the Hobart Observatory, in Tasmania's north-east. In this paper, I confront the question of what to do with these unbalanced archival remains. I draw on the work of social and cultural historians as well as historians of colonialism and science to advocate a three-pronged methodology for approaching the problem of the unbalanced atmospheric archives. The application of this methodology, I show, reveals the way gender relations shaped the way atmospheric knowledge was both produced and used by historical actors in colonial Tasmania.
Health, Hearth and Empire: Climate, Race and Reproduction in British India and Western Australia
Authors: Morgan Ruth A. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
In the wake of the Indian Uprising in 1857, British sanitary campaigner and statistician Florence Nightingale renewed her efforts to reform Britain's military forces at home and in India. With the Uprising following so soon after the Crimean War (1854-56), where poor sanitary conditions had also taken an enormous toll, in 1859 Nightingale pressed the British Parliament to establish a Royal Commission on the Sanitary State of the Army in India, which delivered its report in 1863. Western Australia was the only colony to present its case before the Commissioners as an ideal location for a foreign sanatorium, with glowing assessments offered by colonial elites and military physicians. In the meantime, Nightingale had also commenced an investigation into the health of Indigenous children across the British Empire. Nearly 150 schools responded to her survey from Ceylon, Natal, West Africa, Canada and Australia. The latter's returns came from just three schools in Western Australia: New Norcia, Annesfield in Albany and the Sisters of Mercy in Perth, which together yielded the highest death rate of the respondents.
Although Nightingale herself saw these inquiries as separate, their juxtaposition invites closer analysis of the ways in which metropolitan elites envisioned particular racial futures for Anglo and indigenous populations of empire, and sought to steer them accordingly. The reports reflect prevailing expectations and anxieties about the social and biological reproduction of white society in the colonies, and the concomitant decline of Indigenous peoples. Read together, these two inquiries reveal the complex ways in which colonial matters of reproduction and dispossession, displacement and replacement, were mutually constituting concerns of empire. In this article I situate the efforts to attract white women and their wombs to the temperate colony of Western Australia from British India in the context of contemporary concerns about Anglo and Aboriginal mortality. In doing so, I reflect on the intersections of gender, race, medicine and environment in the imaginaries of empire in the mid-nineteenth century.
Does paravertebral ozone injection have efficacy as an additional treatment for acute lumbar disc herniation? A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study
Authors: Sucuoğlu Hamza , Soydaş Nalan 
Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE: In this study we investigate the effects of paravertebral ozone injections (POI), which have been used as a new treatment approach for lower back pain in recent years, on pain and physical activity in patients with acute lumbar disc herniation (LDH) as an additional treatment. METHODS: Thirty-eight patients were assigned into the ozone therapy (OT) group (n= 20) and placebo control (PC) group (n= 18). Both groups received two sessions per week, a total of 8 sessions of lumbar POI. The ozone concentrations of 20–25 μg/ml (30 ml) and 0.1 μg/ml (30 ml) were administered to the OT and PC groups, respectively. The patients were assessed with the visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) before the treatment (V1), 15 (V2) and 30 (V3) days after the treatment started, and one month (V4) after the treatment ended. RESULTS: A significant improvement was seen in the VAS and ODI scores in the final follow-up (V4) as compared with the baselines scores (V1) in both groups (P< 0.05). The patients in the OT group had lower mean VAS and ODI scores in V2, V3, and V4 follow-ups compared with the patients in the PC group. This significant difference reached its peak in the final follow-up (V4) (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION: As an additional treatment combined with conservative treatment, lumbar POI can lessen pain and disability in patients with acute LDH.
Adrian Paterson ‘Stitching and Unstitching’: Yeats material and immaterial
Authors: Paterson Adrian 
Published: April 2021

W.B. Yeats’s repeated employment of textiles in poetry and plays is various, self-conscious, and revealing. Modernist textile poems, whether by Eliot, Pound, or Stevens, have in common a predilection for talking about their own procedures: Yeats, in line with his philosophical affinities, often suggests that material, whether of tapestries, costumes, curtains, or veils might be lifted to reveal a life beyond. It is significant however that this material revelation of the immaterial tends to be allied with and sometimes triggered by sound: vocal sound and song in particular. The cultural and textual histories of this interest in art and work associated with women deserves further scrutiny. This paper addresses the ‘rhapsodic’ character of the ‘stitching and unstitching’ of ‘Adam’s Curse’, and the interweaving of ‘A Coat’ with Ezra Pound’s blasting tribute to verse-speakers ‘Come My Cantilations’, as well attempting to unpick the involved theology and symbolism of silk, cotton, and damask in later dense poems such as ‘Symbols’, ‘Fragments’, and ‘Wisdom’. In adopting sound as the essential material of poetry, these poems’ co-opting of textile-making as a central allegory for poetry’s making calls upon the collaborations of women, uncovering an important history of textile making through the embroideries of May Morris, the costumes of Charles Ricketts, and the all-female work of Yeats’s sisters Elizabeth and Lily and their apprentices at Dun Emer, later Cuala Industries. As in ‘Cuchulain Comforted’, such revivals of handcraft over manufacture might restore (in song) a communal aspect to making not readily associated with Yeats’s later aesthetics: crucially, even this most posthumous poem is not only concerned with the world beyond, but invested in the labour and economic exchanges of this one.

Authors: Kanczné Nagy Katalin , Csehi Agáta 
Published: April 2021

The study presented here and its results form part of the research among the students of the Faculty of Teacher Education of J. Selye University, which focuses on the study of the causes and background of a dropout. Data collection is performed partly by standardized tests, questionnaires, and partly by self-developed tests. What has been achieved and received so far is pointing out students ’fears and expectations about university life. In the 2019/2020 academic year, we expanded our measurement tools with the Sensation Seeking Scale. A total of 161 teacher candidates were enrolled in this study (full-time 117, 44 correspondents). The questionnaire analyzes the student opinions in 4 dimensions: 1) Thrill and Adventure seeking (SSS-TAS) - searching for fast and dangerous sports, activities, 2) Experience seeking (SSS-ES) - longing for a new, non-conforming lifestyle with senses or unique vitality, 3) Disinhibition (SSS-DIS) - in which the strongest factor is a dive into drug and sex adventures, and 4) Boredom Susceptibility (SSS-BS) - avoidance of repetition, routine and dull people, intolerance of the tension of invariance. In the present study, we focus on: 1. which dimensions belong to the most common search for experiences among students, and 2. whether there are outstanding differences in relation to each dimension. We do this in order to obtain additional information about the students ’personality profile, values, needs, expectations, and to achieve our objectives outlined above.
Informal CPD practices by TVET teachers in Kenya
Authors: Njenga Moses 
Published: April 2021

The literature on Kenya's TVET teachers' paints a depressing picture of teachers infrequently participate in Continuing Professional Development. It is, however, possible that due to the demands of their work, teachers choose to participate in informal CPD because it is more flexible and less expensive. Unfortunately, the literature on informal CPD in Kenya is scant. According to the adult learning literature, this article presents the initial findings of a study investigating the everyday CPD practices of TVET teachers in Kenya. The study adopted a mixed-methods approach involving a questionnaire survey that profiled the learning practices of 40 TVET teachers from three Technical Training Institutes in the Nairobi metropolitan area. Collaborative learning practices were found to be infrequently practised, while individual and self-paced learning is more common. TVET teachers were desirous of learning methods that give them control over their knowledge, with a positive correlation seen between the frequency of using a particular way and how helpful the form is perceived to be. The everyday use of informal learning practices was attributed to the organisational culture within the TVET institutes and the over-emphasis on formal learning by professional and career guidelines. It is recommended that professional and career policies are reviewed to recognise and reward informal learning.
As a Foreign Student of Hungarian Descent in Hungary
Authors: Kancz Flóra 
Published: April 2021

AbstractThe study's basis is own research conducted in April 2020, which used the methods of sociolinguistics and ethnography to examine students from abroad but with a Hungarian background who studied in Hungary in 2019/2020. Students came from different western countries for one-year of training at the Balassi Institute. The main question of the research was how the young linguistic identification and social integration of young people of Hungarian origin living in the diaspora develop under the institutional influence of Hungarian minority policy? Hungary has a great responsibility in the life of diaspora communities at the time; the scholarship training of Áron Márton for the studied students was also created for this purpose. The exercise aims to strengthen the identification of young people living in the diaspora with Hungarian roots, as well as their attachment to our country and culture. The methodology of qualitative research was applicable during the study. Within the method, the conclusions were established based on grounded theory, which requires continuous analysis. The subjects of the stratified sampling came from the advanced group of Hungarology training. The study results show that the method of training is compelling: the linguistic identification of young people from abroad has improved, the knowledge and experience gained at the Balassi Institute have since been regularly seen and incorporated into their everyday lives.

Pengaruh Glukosa Tinggi terhadap Proliferasi, Migrasi dan Ekspresi Gen OCT-4 pada Kultur Sel Dermal Fibroblast Manusia
Authors: Hadi Restu Syamsul , Sandra Yurika 
Published: April 2021

Human dermal fibroblasts (HDF) termasuk sel mesenchymal yang diisolasi dari lapisan dermis kulit. HDF berpotensi digunakan untuk pengobatan penyembuhan luka berdasarkan pengobatan regeneratif. Peningkatan konsentrasi glukosa dapat merusak fungsi sel dan menghambat terapi penyembuhan luka. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji pengaruh glukosa tinggi pada proliferasi, migrasi dan ekspresi gen OCT-4 sel HDF sebagai model penyembuhan luka diabetes in vitro. Pada penelitian eksperimental ini, fibroblast diisolasi dari kulit setelah sirkumsisi, kemudian ditumbuhkan dalam medium Minimal Essential Medium (DMEM) Dulbecco lengkap dengan serum 10%. Untuk menguji efek glukosa tinggi pada proliferasi sel HDF dilakukan dengan uji CCK-8. Migrasi sel HDF dievaluasi menggunakan uji scratch-assay. RT-PCR digunakan untuk menentukan ekspresi gen OCT-4. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa glukosa tinggi (25 mM-50 mM) meningkatkan kemampuan proliferasi dan migrasi sel HDF. Efek glukosa tinggi tergantung pada dosis. Perlakuan glukosa pada dosis 75 mM akan menghambat kemampuan pertumbuhan HDF. Ekspresi gen OCT-4 meningkat secara bermakna pada pemberian glukosa dosis 25-50 mM. Hasil penelitian ini memberikan dasar untuk pengembangan terapi dalam kondisi diabetes bahwa terapi sel HDF dapat meningkatkan penyembuhan luka meskipun dalam kondisi glukosa tinggi.

ObjectiveMesenchymal stromal cell–derived exosomes have been applied for the treatment of several immune diseases. This study aimed to explore the effect of human bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cell (hBMSC)–derived exosomes on acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).MethodshBMSC were cultured, and the culture supernatants were then collected to prepare exosomes using total exosome isolation reagent from Invitrogen. Mouse aGVHD model was established by allogeneic cell transplantation and injected with hBMSC-derived exosomes (Msc-exo) via tail vein. Exosomes from human fibroblast (Fib-exo) were used as the treatment control. The effects of Msc-exo on dendritic cells, CD4+, and CD8+T cells in aGVHD mice were analyzed through flow cytometry. The impact on inflammatory cytokines was tested by ELISA. Besides, the body weight, survival rate, and clinical score of treated mice were monitored.ResultsMsc-exo were successfully prepared. aGVHD mice injected with Msc-exo led to 7–8-fold increase of the CD8α+conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) and CD11b+cDCs compared with the controls. In addition, Msc-exo altered the T help and Treg subpopulation, and decreased the cytotoxicity and proliferation of cytotoxic T cells to favor inflammatory inhibition in aGVHD mice. Mice that received Msc-exo exhibited decreased weight loss and reduced aGVHD clinical score in a time-dependent manner as well as reduced lethality compared with Fib-exo treated or untreated control. Furthermore, the levels of IL-2, TNF-α, and IFN-γ were decreased, as well as the level of IL-10 was increased after Msc-exo treatmentin vivoandin vitro.ConclusionhBMSC-derived exosomes could attenuate aGVHD damage and promote the survival of aGVHD mice by regulating the DC and T-cell subpopulation and function, and lead to inhibited inflammatory response in aGVHD mice.
Modern India and Dietary Calcium Deficiency—Half a Century Nutrition Data—Retrospect–Introspect and the Road Ahead
Authors: Harinarayan Chittari Venkata , Akhila Harinarayan , Shanthisree Edara 
Published: April 2021

Calcium and vitamin D are inseparable nutrients required for bone health. In the past half a century, the dietary calcium intake of rural, tribal, and urban India has declined. Though India is the largest producer of milk and cereals, the major source of calcium in India is through non-dairy products. The highest intake of cereals and lowest intake of milk &amp; milk products was observed in rural and tribal subjects whereas, the intake of cereals, milk &amp; milk products were similar in both urban and metropolitan subjects. One of the reasons for lower calcium intake was the proportion of calcium derived from dairy sources. Over the past half a century, the average 30-day consumption of cereals in the rural and urban population has declined by 30%. The Per Capita Cereal Consumption (PCCC)has declined despite sustained raise in Monthly Per capita Consumption Expenditure (MPCE) in both rural and urban households. The cereal consumption was the highest in the lowest income group, despite spending smaller portion of their income, as cereals were supplied through public distribution system (PDS). About 85% of the Indian population are vitamin D deficient despite abundant sunlight. Dietary calcium deficiency can cause secondary vitamin D deficiency. Though India as a nation is the largest producer of milk, there is profound shortage of calcium intake in the diet with all negative consequences on bone health. There is a decline in dietary calcium in the background of upward revision of RDI/RDA. There is a gap in the production-consumption-supply chain with respect to dietary calcium. To achieve a strong bone health across India, it is imperative to have population based strategies addressing different segments including supplementing dietary/supplemental calcium in ICDS, mid-day-meals scheme, public distribution system, educational strategies. Other measures like mass food fortification, biofortification, bioaddition, leveraging digital technologies, investments from corporate sector are some measures which can address this problem. India is a vast country with diverse social, cultural and dietary habits. No single measure can address this problem and requires a multi-pronged strategic approach to tackle the dietary calcium deficiency to achieve strong bone health while solving the problem of nutritional deficiency.
