Long term pulmonary morbidity after esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula repair
Authors: Burjonrappa Sathyaprasad 
Published: February 2021

Background: Respiratory morbidity can influence a patient's quality of life after successful EA/TEF (Esophageal Atresia with and without Tracheo-Esophageal Fistula) repair. Multidisciplinary clinics have made it easier to manage comorbidities in patients with complex congenital malformations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of respiratory issues after EA/TEF repair. Secondarily we sought to evaluate the contribution of respiratory symptoms by Broncho-Pulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) and Gastro-Esophageal-Reflux-Disease (GERD) in patients with EA/TEF.
Methods: Retrospective review of the medical record of 50 patients, who underwent EA/TEF repair, needing hospital readmission for pulmonary morbidity, and subsequently followed up in a surgical clinic was performed. The data collected included patient demographics, presence and nature of significant respiratory comorbidity, findings on imaging studies and bronchoscopy, and results of pulmonary function tests (PFT).
Results: Respiratory issues were identified in 75% of the patients. Congenital malformations and tracheomalacia were found in n=7 (14%) of cases. Prematurity associated BPD and Gastro-Esophageal Reflux were not the major cause of respiratory symptoms. Respiratory morbidity in this population included recurrent pneumonia n=18 (36%), reactive airway disease n=16 (32%), bronchiolitis n=4 (8%), bronchiectasis n=2 (4%), laryngitis n=2 (4%) and empyema n=1 (2%).
Conclusions: Pulmonary complications significantly impact the quality of life in terms of respiratory events, after successful EA/TEF repair. While GERD is common in surgically repaired EA/TEF patients, its exact role in precipitating pulmonary morbidity needs further study. Tracheomalacia can be managed conservatively without resorting to aortopexy.

The concept of ecosystem and ecosystem management services has given rise to different definitions and classifications. Ecosystem may be defined as a natural unit of living things and their physical environment. Ecosystem concept shows the relationship of biodiversity and ecosystems and the benefits are the services enjoyed by humans. In the past, ecosystem resources were used by multiple groups and individuals across sub-Sahara for variety of purposes, sustaining agrarian livelihood through the use of customary laws and traditional social structures. After the Ghana’s 1992 amended constitution, lands in large-scale irrigation in the northern Ghana were returned to the traditional custodians. The study seeks to establish the current role of traditional custodians’ management of ecosystem in irrigation landscapes. The study was conducted in the Tono and Bontanga irrigation landscapes in Northern Ghana using participatory impact assessment methods. Despite the return of lands in irrigated landscapes, formal links and relationships are broken and little is done to amend the situation. Also, there is no clear understanding of the natural resources ownership and management and therefore transition from traditional subsistence agriculture into modern one, supported by irrigation and other technically advanced methods, with a full participation of the small-holder farmers are still lacking.

Published: February 2021

Constructed Wetland technology has positive potentials for the management of faecal sludge in developing countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. However, identification of indigenous plant species that can survive the high levels of faecal sludge toxicity is a major challenge to its application. Preliminary study highlighted a high complexity of potential macrophytes species identification within the Sahelian context. This study is a preliminary stage of acclimatising four indigenous plant species Setaria verticillata (SV), Cymbopogon nardus (CN), Bambusa vulgaris (BV) and Typha latifolia L. (TL) to wastewater contamination in pot experiment. Macrophytes were subjected to wastewater irrigation from maturation basin of the 2iE Ouagadougou campus wastewater treatment plant. Macrophytes growth was monitored weekly by three growth parameters (No. of Plants per pot, Plant Height and No. of Leaves per pot). Initial plant height of 46.6, 75.7 and 61.7cm for SV, BV and TL, increased to 98, 103.1 and 93.5 cm after 13, 11 and 8 weeks of planting respectively. After 11 weeks of planting the average height of CN, reduced from 66.3 to 42 cm. Number of plants averagely increased from 25 to 130, 4 to15, 4 to 10 and 4 to 8 respectively for SV, CN, BV and TL. Average leaves per pot increased from 95 to 839, 19 to 67, 368 to 508 and 4 to 49 for SV, CN, BV and TL respectively. Variations of average growth rate among species were statistically insignificant. The results thus indicate satisfactory reed potentials with wastewater acclimatisation.
Drivers of Farmers’ Relationship Choice in Commodity Supply Chains: The Case of Soybean in Northern Ghana
Authors: Damba O. T. , Egyir I. , Adam H. 
Published: February 2021

To ensure an efficient marketing with attractive profit margins in supply chains, factors influencing relationship choice between farmers and buyers require critical assessment. Choice of marketing relationship is the bane of most agricultural commodity supply chains in Northern Ghana. The type of relationship agreed between farmers and buyers determines the form of delivery of a commodity. Buyers identified included retailers, itinerant traders and wholesalers. Identified marketing relationship was either on contract or spot buying with access to credit, membership to farmer association, experience and price as drivers of marketing relationship. In terms of marketing relationships, 57% of the farmers’ commodities are based on agreed contract while 43% commodities are without any binding contract. Age, price, access to credit, membership of farmer association, education and farmers’ experience are the factors influencing contracting or otherwise in established commodity supply chain in Northern Ghana. Soybean production and utilization has the potential to draw the youth into agriculture and government and private partners should intervene with the commercialization supply chains with strong contract relationships in the supply chain.

Command and Control for Cyberspace Operations - A Call for Research
Authors: Morgan Adam S , Stone Steve 
Published: February 2021

The United States Department of Defense (DoD) declared cyberspace as an operational domain in 2011. The DoD subsequently formed US Cyber Command and the Cyber Mission Force to conduct operations to achieve national and military objectives in and through cyberspace. Since that time, the DoD has implemented and evolved through multiple command and control (C2) structures for cyberspace operations, derived from traditional military C2 doctrine, to achieve unity of effort across both the global cyberspace domain and with military operations in the physical domains (land, sea, air, and space). The DoD continues to struggle to adapt its C2 methods from the physical domains to the cyber domain. Applying traditional military C2 constructs to the cyberspace domain leads to several problems due to the uniqueness of cyberspace from the other domains. Cyberspace presents a very different operational environment than the physical domains, where time and space are compressed.
In this paper, we describe the factors that make cyberspace different from the other operational domains and the challenges those differences impose on existing C2 constructs. We propose a campaign of experimentation, consisting of a series cyberspace C2 experiments, to address these challenges by conducting research into the taxonomy of C2 nodes, decisions, information, and relationships, which can be used to simulate and refine DoD cyberspace operations C2 constructs.

Conceptualizing “Small-Time” College Athletics: The Fracture of the “Little Nineteen” Conference in the 1930s
Authors: Ingrassia Brian M. 
Published: February 2021

AbstractThe Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (IIAC), formed in the early 1900s, oversaw athletic relations among most of Illinois’s colleges and universities. At one point, the so-called Little Nineteen had over twenty members. In the 1930s, though, the conference fell apart, largely due to internecine conflicts over freshman eligibility. The IIAC’s fracture is a case study illustrating the impact of the Great Depression on small-college athletics. In particular, it shows how private schools sought to distinguish themselves both athletically and educationally from publicly funded institutions, including teachers colleges and junior colleges. Ultimately, by forming a new conference in 1937—and by limiting competition against public institutions or nonaccredited colleges—these small, private “liberal arts colleges” helped conceptualize a distinctive type of small-time intercollegiate athletics that rejected big-time athletic commercialization.
“National Responsibility”: A History of Willful Nostalgia in the Canadian Football League
Authors: Andrews Ben , Greenham Craig 
Published: February 2021

Abstract
The Canadian Football League (CFL) has long promoted itself and its championship game, the Grey Cup, as an integral part of Canadian identity and a force for national unity. Different periods of league history offer more or less support for this notion, as public interest in the league has fluctuated greatly over time. The 1970s were a period of relative prosperity for many teams, but by the late-1980s, declining attendance threatened its survival. During this period municipal, regional, and provincial governments rushed to support CFL teams through loans, tax breaks, and rent abatements. Pressed by frustrated taxpayers, politicians justified government support with little more than willful nostalgia for a formerly proud CFL. Three case studies are discussed detailing these events in different markets across the CFL. The nostalgic discourse of league officials, politicians, and journalists is examined.
Superfood or Superficial? Plasmon and the Birth of the Supplement Industry
Authors: Heffernan Conor 
Published: February 2021

AbstractBeginning in the early twentieth century and continuing until the Great War, British consumers concerned with protecting or increasing their health were presented with a new and exciting product. Labeled “Plasmon,” this milk-based protein supplement promised to build nerve and flesh in equal measure. Used by explorers, scientists, athletes, and physical culturists, not to mention mothers and schoolchildren, Plasmon was marketed as a marvel of the modern age. Health foods had existed prior to Plasmon’s emergence, but none matched its advertising range. Citing Plasmon as a pivotal step in the transition from health foods to body-building supplements more generally, it is argued that Plasmon utilized ideas of science, gender, and sporting celebrity to promote its value to the British public. Though short-lived, Plasmon’s time in Britain predated the current supplement industry by nearly a century. Its study addresses a dearth in the literature regarding one of the most profitable sporting markets of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

[1,2,4]triazyny – potencjalne leki w chemioterapii nowotworów
Authors: Szymanowska Anna , Gornowicz Agnieszka , Bielawska Anna , Bielawski Krzysztof 
Published: February 2021

Streszczenie
Choroby nowotworowe stanowią duże zagrożenie społeczne; w 2018 roku zdiagnozowano prawie 18 milionów nowych przypadków zachorowań na nowotwory. Wybór metody leczenia uzależniony jest od typu nowotworu, a także stopnia zaawansowania choroby w chwili diagnozy. W leczeniu wykorzystuje się przede wszystkim: metody chirurgiczne, radioterapię, immunoterapię, hormonoterapię i chemioterapię. Leki cytostatyczne mogą być stosowane zarówno w monoterapii, jak i w terapii skojarzonej. W latach 2009–2018 Amerykańska Agencja ds. Żywności i Leków (FDA) dopuściła prawie 356 nowych leków w terapii przeciwnowotworowej. Należy jednak zwrócić uwagę, że mimo coraz większej dostępności nowoczesnych leków, choroba ta jest drugą główną przyczyną zgonów na świecie. Badania nad opracowaniem preparatów cytotoksycznych mają na celu zaprojektowanie struktury związku, którego działanie ukierunkowane będzie na komórki nowotworowe przy jednoczesnym braku wpływu na komórki prawidłowe. Strukturę chemiczną o potencjalnym działaniu przeciwnowotworowym mogą tworzyć pochodne triazyny, które są stosowane w terapii onkologicznej już od 1965 roku. W zależności od umiejscowienia atomów azotu w pierścieniu wyróżnia się trzy izomery: [1,2,3]triazyny, [1,2,4]triazyny, [1,3,5]triazyny. Odpowiednia modyfikacja struktury [1,2,4]triazyny ma na celu zapewnienie znacznie silniejszych właściwości cytotoksycznych i ograniczenie działań niepożądanych w porównaniu do obecnie stosowanych leków. Projektowanie nowych preparatów ma także poprawić komfort życia pacjenta. W artykule pokrótce przedstawiono w jaki sposób modyfikacja struktury chemicznej pochodnych [1,2,4]triazyny wpływa na wzrost ich aktywności cytotoksycznej i dlaczego te związki mogą być lepiej tolerowane niż obecnie stosowana terapia.
La investigación en pensamiento histórico. Un estudio a través de las tesis doctorales de Ciencias Sociales (1995-2020)
Authors: Chaparro Sainz Álvaro , Felices de la Fuente María del Mar , Triviño Cabrera Laura 
Published: February 2021

Este artículo analiza la evolución de la investigación sobre pensamiento histórico a partir de las tesis doctorales nacionales e internacionales de los últimos veinticinco años. Para ello, se ha seguido un proceso sistemático de búsqueda en las principales bases de datos a nivel mundial, que ha reportado un total de 163 tesis doctorales. Estos trabajos se han analizado desde un enfoque metodológico cuantitativo descriptivo, con el programa de análisis estadístico SPSS y la herramienta Voyant Tools. Los resultados nos ofrecen información acerca del número de investigaciones realizadas, su evolución en el tiempo, los países, idiomas y universidades de mayor producción, y las principales temáticas trabajadas. Concluimos que, pese al aumento de las tesis doctorales sobre pensamiento histórico en los últimos años, continúan existiendo vacíos en la investigación apenas abordados.
In this article the evolution of research on Historical Thinking is analyzed based on national and international dissertations defended in the last twenty-five years. For this, we have followed a systematic search process in the main databases worldwide, which has reported a total of 163 dissertations. These works have been analyzed from a descriptive quantitative methodological approach, with the SPSS statistical analysis program and the Voyant Tools tool. The results offer us information about the number of researches carried out, their evolution over time, the countries, languages and universities with the highest production, and the main topics studied. We conclude that, despite the increase in doctoral thesis on Historical Thinking in recent years, there are still research gaps that have hardly been studied.
