Cosmic Dance of Dialogue!
Authors: Swidler Leonard 
Published: April 2021

The author starts from the obvious statement that no one knows everything about everything and that we can have only partial knowledge of any limited study of reality, although, when it comes to religion, many still claim to know everything they need to know. Since people cannot know everything, dialogue is necessary, because through a conversation with another, a person learns what he cannot notice from his place and with his personal lenses of knowledge.
Dialogue is not just a way to get more information: Dialogue is a whole new way of thinking! Dialogue in its broadest sense is at the very heart of the cosmos, that is, the very essence of the cosmos and our humanity is dialogical, and fulfilled human life is the highest expression of the Cosmic Dance of Dialogue. Therefore, the author emphasizes, we humans today have an obvious choice: dialogue or death! The text points out that there are three main dimensions of dialogue, which correspond to the structure of humanity: The dialogue of the head, hands and heart in the holistic harmony of the holy man. In the dialogue of the head we reach out to those who think differently from us to understand how they see the world and the reason for their behavior. The world is too complicated for anyone to figure it out on their own. In hand dialogue, we team up with others to make the world a better place where we all need to live together. In the dialogue of the heart we open ourselves to perceive/receive the beauty of the other. The author concludes that people cannot live divided. If they want to survive, and even flourish, they must not only dance individually the dialogues of head, hand, and heart but also bring together the various parts in harmony.
Narrative Breakdown in the Political Asylum Process
Authors: Shuman Amy , Bohmer Carol 
Published: April 2021

AbstractThe narratives that political asylum applicants tell in immigration hearings are often fragmentary, in part because people fleeing violence and discrimination are not always knowledgeable about the details of their persecution. We discuss the particular problem of narrating unanticipated events, experiences that have no precedent in people’s ordinary lives before violence. Building on earlier research on narrative coherence and trauma narrative, we describe how narrative breakdown occurs in narrative form and in the hearing interactions. We suggest that this narrative breakdown is part of a larger discourse of suspicion in political asylum hearings.
Restorative justice conferencing in Australia and New Zealand

Restorative justice conferencing in Australia and New Zealand Application and potential in an environmental and Aboriginal cultural heritage protection context
Indigenous people may suffer harm when the environment, sacred places and sacred objects are destroyed or damaged. Restorative justice conferencing, a facilitated face-to-face dialogue involving victims, offenders, and pertinent stakeholders has the potential to repair that harm. This article explores the use of conferencing in this context with case law examples from New Zealand and New South Wales, Australia. As will be discussed, the lack of legislative support for conferencing in the Land and Environment Court of New South Wales means it is doubtful that such conferencing will develop past its current embryonic state. As well as using restorative justice conferencing to repair harm from past criminality, this article suggests that further research should explore the use of restorative justice to resolve present conflict, and prevent future conflict, where there is a disconnect between non-Indigenous use of the environment and Indigenous culture embedded in the environment.
Comprehensive lifestyle modification as complementary therapy to prevent and manage post-transplant diabetes mellitus*
Authors: Madziarska Katarzyna , Hap Katarzyna , Mazanowska Oktawia , Sutkowska Edyta 
Published: April 2021

Summary
Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is one from the most common metabolic complications after kidney transplantation. PTDM develops in the early period after transplantation. The risk factors of PTDM are carbohydrate imbalances occurring in the patient prior to transplantation, surgery and the inclusion of immunosuppressive treatment. Kidney transplant patients tend to gain weight, which is associated with an increased risk of post-transplant diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and abnormal transplanted kidney function.
Patients after kidney transplantation should be advised to adopt a lifestyle based on a proper diet, exercise, weight control and smoking cessation. The strategy to reduce the risk factors for PTDM development should start before transplantation and continue after kidney transplantation. A targeted, non-pharmacological approach to patients already during the dialysis period may have a significant impact on reducing post-transplantation diabetes.
Lifestyle interventions can effectively reduce the risk of development and inhibit the progression of post-transplantation diabetes. The article describes elements of comprehensive non-pharmacological management based on available knowledge of rehabilitation, dietetics and psychology.

Published: April 2021

PurposeTo characterize the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSD), symptoms, and risk factors among ophthalmologists.MethodsAn online survey was distributed to ophthalmologist members of the Maryland Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons. The survey consisted of 34 questions on respondent demographics, practice characteristics, pain, and effects of MSD on their practice patterns. Participants were excluded if they were not ophthalmologists or if they had MSD symptoms prior to the start of their ophthalmology career. Demographics and practice patterns were compared for those with or without MSD symptoms using the Welch t test and the Fisher exact test.ResultsThe survey was completed by 127 of 250 active members (response rate, 51%). Of the 127, 85 (66%) reported experiencing work-related pain, with an average pain level of 4/10. With regard to mean age, height, weight, years in practice, number of patients seen weekly, and hours worked weekly, there was no difference between respondents reporting pain and those without. Those reporting MSD symptoms spent significantly more time in surgery than those who did not (mean of 7.9 vs 5.3 hours/week [P < 0.01]). Fourteen percent of respondents reported plans to retire early due to their symptoms.ConclusionsA majority of respondents experienced work-related MSD symptoms, which was associated with time spent in surgery. Modifications to the workplace environment focusing on ergonomics, particularly in the operating room, may benefit ophthalmologists.
Electrochemical Applications for the Antioxidant Sensing in Food Samples Such as Citrus and Its Derivatives, Soft Drinks, Supplementary Food and Nutrients

Published: April 2021

Although there are many definitions of antioxidants, the most general description; antioxidants are carried a phenolic function in their structure and prevent the formation of free radicals or intercept from damage to the cell by scavenging existing radicals. Moreover, they are one of the most effective substances that contain essential nutrients for healthy individuals. The importance of these antioxidants, which have an incredible effect on the body and increase the body’s resistance, is increasing day by day for healthy individuals. Numerous studies have been carried out for antioxidants with excellent properties and however new, reliable, selective, sensitive and green analytical methods are sought for their determination at trace levels in food samples. Along with the latest developments, electrochemical methods are of great interest in the world of science because they are fast, reliable, sensitive and environmentally friendly. Electrochemical methods have been frequently applied to analyze antioxidant capacity in many nutrients samples found in different forms such as solid, liquid without any pretreatment applications in the last decade. Furthermore, these methods are preferred because of the short analysis time, the ability to lower detection limits, reduction in a solvent, high sensitivity, portability, low sample consumption, wide working range, and more economical than existing other traditional analytical methods. The antioxidant sensing applications by modern electrochemical methods such as cyclic, square wave, differential pulse, and combined with stripping voltammetric techniques were used to deduce antioxidant capacity (AC) in critical nutrients. Moreover, this chapter includes a description of the classification of electrochemical methods according to the working electrode type, dynamic working range, limit of determination (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), sample type, and using standard analyte and so forth for each voltammetric methods. While many articles applied for the determination of antioxidant sensing by electrochemistry have gained momentum in the last two decades, we focused on the studies conducted over the last 4 years in this chapter.
Modern Teacher Education - Supporting the Vast Landscape of 21st Century Pedagogy
Authors: Joshua C. Elliott Dr , Craig S. Tunks Dr 
Published: April 2021

Learners have changed; Teaching has changed; Expectations have changed. How to best support modern learners is the challenge of all educators at all grade levels. The students of today are sophisticated users of technology, they are multitasking constantly and can sometimes be more comfortable with the technology than they are interacting with teachers and peers in the real world. Marc Prensky described them as “Digital Natives” over 10 years ago implying that they are efficient users of technology. This is not always the case. While they are exposed to various technologies and can successfully use them outside the classroom their use of these same tools as learning support tools can be lacking. Digital natives have different learning styles and different concerns than previous students. Educators need to keep up with this changing landscape and need to learn, develop and innovate new ways to support todays’ learners. Supporting today’s learners now requires more than just educating them in a specific content area but also includes supporting them in the use of technology tools in an education setting. Supporting educators through areas of primary training such as teacher preparation programs and degree programs are one way to accomplish this but also the many credible teacher training programs that provide experience, peer support or certifications are also excellent tools. Through this chapter we will take a close look at pedagogy, learning styles, support tools, and the skills needed to be a modern educator.
La parole de L’Utopie : oralité d’une écriture chez Thomas More
Authors: Poirier Guillaume G. 
Published: April 2021

Cet article exploratoire offre une réinterprétation de L’Utopie de Thomas More en y problématisant le rôle politique de l’écriture et de la parole. En prenant pour point de départ le concept de voie oblique offert par Abensour, il s’agira de souligner la prédominance de l’oralité dans cette stratégie littéraire. Pour ce faire, trois influences sous-estimées dans les analyses de L’Utopie seront dégagées : le problème de la logographie du Phèdre, l’emploi rhétorique d’une mise en abîme topologique dans le De Republica de Cicéron et les récits modernes sur « les peuples sans écriture » du Nouveau Monde. On pourra enfin saisir comment cette tension entre écriture et parole affecte le questionnement utopiste sur la chose politique. C’est qu’en se faisant parole, l’écriture de L’Utopie produit une stratégie discursive que l’on voit résonner chez d’autres auteurs du XVIe siècle (Machiavel, La Boétie) : elle offre une pensée heuristique sur le possible doublée d’une critique de l’ordre politique de son temps.
Association behavior between sand tiger sharks and round scad is driven by mesopredators
Authors: Coleman Nicholas C. , Burge Erin J. 
Published: April 2021

In marine systems, behaviorally-mediated indirect interactions between prey, mesopredators, and higher trophic-level, large predators are less commonly investigated than other ecologic interactions, likely because of inherent difficulties associated with making observations. Underwater videos (n = 216) from SharkCam, a camera installation sited beneath Frying Pan Tower, a decommissioned light house and platform, on a natural, hard bottom site approximately 50 km off Cape Fear, North Carolina, were used to investigate association behavior of round scadDecapterus punctatusaround sand tiger sharksCarcharias taurus. Videos containing sand tiger sharks were analyzed for the simultaneous presence of round scad, and six species of scad mesopredators, with scad-shark interactions assigned to one of three categories of association: no visible interaction, loosely associated, or tightly associated. The likelihood of scad being loosely or tightly associated with sharks was significantly higher in the presence of scad mesopredators, suggesting that sharks provide a predation refuge for scad. This behaviorally-mediated indirect interaction has important implications for trophic energy transfer and mesopredator control on hard bottoms, as scad are one of the most abundant planktivorous fish on hard bottoms in the western Atlantic Ocean. Although we were not able to provide statistical evidence that sand tiger sharks also benefit from this association behavior, we have clear video evidence that round scad association conceals and attracts mesopredators, enhancing predation opportunities for sand tiger sharks. These interactions potentially yield additional trophic consequences to this unique association and highlight the value of exploring behaviorally-mediated interactions in marine communities.

Aims: The objective of this study was to determine the optimal fertilizing method and NPK fertilizer dosage for plant physiology and nutmeg yield.
Study Design: The experimental design was a completely randomized block design (CRBD) in a 4x3 factorial arrangement with three replicates. The first factor was four NPK fertilizer doses: 1, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5kg NPK (15:15:15)/tree/year. The second factor was the manner of fertilizer application: (1) fertilized in spot, (2) fertilized in-furrow trenches trunked and (3) fertilized in hole.
Place and Duration of Study: The research was conducted in Tobelo North Halmahera (1°44'45.3"-1°44'54.4" N, 127°59'54.4"-127°59'53.2" E), North Maluku, Indonesia from January 2019 to May 2020.
Methodology: The nutmeg trees used was 30 years old. The population of trees plants in the study area was 40 trees. Observation parameters on leaves are chlorophyll a, b and total, nitrate reductase activity (NRA), N, P, K, proline content, number of young and old fruits.
Results: The fertilization treatment with the fertilizer application method into the crack/hole fertilizer with a dose of 2.5 kg NPK significantly produced high levels of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll of leaves and old fruit. The number of old fruits is positively correlated with chlorophyll a content (0.615*), chlorophyll b (0.663*), total chlorophyll (0.634*) and number of young fruits (0.748 **). The application of fertilizer hole produces plants that recover quickly from drought stress, as evidenced by the highest proline content.
Conclusion: NPK fertilization using the hole method and at doses of 2.0-2.5 kg/tree/year are recommended for improving plant physiology and yield.

Published: July 2002

AbstractObjective: To assess the role of bacterial vaginosis (BV) on pregnancy complications in a developing community where mixed cervico‐vaginal infections are common. Setting: The antenatal clinic at King Edward VIII Hospital (KEH), Durban, South Africa, which is a large urban tertiary hospital serving mainly a Black underprivileged population of KwaZulu/Natal. Methods: Asymptomatic pregnant women ≤30 weeks gestation were recruited at their first antenatal visit. Clinical data including the sexual history were recorded. Swab specimens were collected from the vagina and endocervix for diagnosing BV, trichomoniasis, candidiasis, gonorrhea and chlamydial infection. Venous blood specimens were tested for antibody to syphilis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). All women continued standard antenatal care and hospital records were reviewed following delivery to evaluate pregnancy outcome. Results: BV was found in 52% of the women studied and was the commonest infection diagnosed. Mixed vaginal infections of BV and trichomoniasis were diagnosed in 14%. Only 29% of asymptomatic women did not have any microbiological evidence of a lower genital tract infection. A total of 46% of women studied had poor pregnancy outcome as measured by obstetrical complications, pregnancy loss and/or neonatal morbidity. There was a significant difference in outcome in women with BV (55 of 88) compared to those having infections other than BV (13 of 31), or no infection (5 of 9) —P = 0.005. This difference was for obstetrical complications of preterm delivery, premature rupture of membranes and intrauterine infection, but not for pregnancy losses and neonatal morbidity. Conclusions: The high prevalence of BV and concomitant lower genital tract infections among asymptomatic pregnant women and the resultant adverse pregnancy outcome associated with BV, confirms reports from developed countries of the need for screening for BV at the initial antenatal clinic visit. Whether pregnancy outcome was worse in the presence of BV and other infections than BV alone could not be determined. Future studies with appropriate interventions are needed to evaluate the unique problems of developing countries.
Monitoring obstetric services: putting the ‘UN Guidelines’ into practice in Malawi: 3 years on

Published: July 2002

AbstractThe maternal mortality ratio is difficult to use for monitoring short‐term progress in safe motherhood programs. UNICEF/WHO/UNFPA have proposed alternative process indicators monitoring the availability, utilization and quality of obstetric services. There is little experience in the large‐scale use of these indicators as part of routine health information systems in developing countries. The Malawi Safe Motherhood Project, which covers a population of over 5 million, was one of the first large projects to implement the new process indicators. At the end of 2000 data were available from the new monitoring system for 3 consecutive years. In 1998, availability of comprehensive emergency obstetric care was adequate but availability of basic emergency obstetric care was very poor. Although institutional delivery rates were over 30%, the met need for obstetric care was only 19.8% and the cesarean section rate was only 1.6%. The mean case fatality rate in District hospitals was nearly 5%. By the end of 2000, improvements in availability, utilization and quality of obstetric care were observed. Participation in developing the monitoring system had also created a strong sense of ownership and interest in analyzing and using the data. Several issues have emerged from routine use of the process indicators. In particular, it has been difficult to be certain that obstetric complications have been recorded correctly. The results confirm that a focus on improving emergency obstetric care in Malawi was justified and that process indicators for obstetric care can be successfully introduced in developing countries. The monitoring system has provided data that are of immediate relevance to service providers, managers, and policy makers and provide many lessons useful for similar programs in other settings.
Immunohistochemical demonstration of nerve fibers in the synovial fold of the human cervical facel joint

Published: July 2002

AbstractThe role of the intra‐articular synovial fold as a source of facet joint pain is unclear, because the nature of nociceptive innervation in lumbar synovial folds is controversial, and there have been no such studies in cervical synovial folds. The present study aimed to demonstrate the presence of nerve fibers including nociceptive fibers in synovial folds of human cervical facet joints using immunohistochemistry. Synovial folds of cervical facet joints removed from patients undergoing cervical spine laminoplasty were analyzed immunohistochemically using antibodies to protein gene product 9.5, β III‐tubulin, substance P and calcitonin gene‐related peptide. Many nerve fibers immunoreactive for protein gene product 9.5 and β III‐tubulin were demonstrated both around blood vessels and as free fibers in the stroma of the synovial fold. Also, immunostaining showed the presence of free nerve fibers immunoreactive for substance P and calcitonin gene‐related peptide in the stroma. The presence of putative nociceptive fibers in cervical synovial folds supports a possible role for these structures as a source of cervical facet joint pain. © 2001 Orthopaedic Research Society.

In Europe, being a psychiatric patient is like being the passenger of a pilot who learned to fly by reading about it
Authors: Compernolle T 
Published: July 2002

SummaryAn inquiry among the 150 participating trainees and trainers from 24 European countries (mainly from Western European countries), at the Annual EFPT Symposium revealed that in most countries live supervision and observation are not used in training. To make matters even worse, psychiatry trainees hardly get any supervision at all. About one third of the participants never observed a senior psychiatrist in interaction with a patient during the course of their training. Half of the participants were never observed while interacting with a patient during the course of their training. The author elaborates on five of the reasons why live supervision and observation are indispensable tools for training psychiatrists. He concludes that it is unethical to permit trainees to become psychiatrists without this kind of training. For psychiatry to become a profession earning more respect from the other medical professionals and the general public, it is necessary that senior psychiatrists pay more respect to their own profession by giving trainees an adequate training in the craftsmanship of psychiatry.
