Bombay Blood Group in a Case of Previous Cesarean Section with Placenta Previa: Awareness, Alertness, Anticipation of Complications and Active Intervention (4As)
Authors: Rajeswari KS , Agarwal Preet , Sruthi Medempudi Bhavya 
Published: September 2015

ABSTRACT
H-deficient Bombay phenotype is rare since it occurs in about 1 in 10,000 individuals in India and 1 per 1,000,000 in Europe. Here is a rare case of a 30 years old G2P1L1 at 32 weeks with previous lower segment cesarean section (LSCS), intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and Doppler changes with also placenta previa. Her blood grouping was identified as Bombay blood group who underwent uterine artery embolization (UAE) with C-section. We present this case as the diagnosis of Bombay blood group can easily be missed and undiagnosed transfusion can cause serious complications.

Published: September 2015

ABSTRACT
We report the case of a puerperal woman who presented to us with sepsis with multiorgan dysfunction and motor weakness of both lower limbs. On detailed evaluation, patient was found to have axonal neuropathy establishing the diagnosis of critical illness polyneuropathy. A high index of suspicion is required to arrive at the diagnosis as this condition is not only associated with high mortality and morbidity rates but also can affect the quality of life of the individual in the long term. This case has been reported to highlight the importance of recognition of this common, but rarely diagnosed condition as it can help us to portend the prognosis.

Published: September 2015

ABSTRACT
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder which was thought to be reasonably well understood. However, new diagnostic criteria have evolved over the years just as has the management of associated infertility. Our review looks at the various diagnostic criteria for PCOS and what has prompted the need for a constant change in these. We also analyze the need for various investigations and what new evidence is out there for optimal treatment for infertility associated with this condition.

Published: September 2015

ABSTRACTPrenatal diagnosis of intracranial tumors generally implies a poor prognosis. We present three such cases, where prognostication was difficult. We attempted to correlate our prenatal counseling with postnatal follow-up/postabortal diagnosis. In the first case, tumor was diagnosed at 37 weeks. Ultrasound and fetal/neonatal MRI suggested a malignant intraventricular tumor. Anticipating guarded prognosis, parents refused neurosurgical intervention. At 1 year, child has normal neurodevelopment. Further magnetic resonance imagings (MRIs) show tumor shrinkage, pointing to a benign tumor. In case two, a choroid plexus tumor was diagnosed at midtrimester anomaly scan. Since it was difficult to rule out a malignant tumor, pregnancy was terminated. However, MRI, autopsy, and histopathology confirmed a choroid plexus papilloma, which is known to have good prognosis. In case three, prenatal MRI showed features of neurological involvement in tuberous sclerosis. However child has no neurological manifestations at 1 year of age. Hence, prognostication of prenatally diagnosed brain tumors remains a challenge.How to cite this articleVasudeva A, Amin SV, Kadavigere R, Girisha KM, Rai L.

Foreign Direct Investments and Economic Growth: The Primary Drivers
Authors: Githaiga Peter , Nyauncho Josiah , KABIRU Charles Githinji 
Published: September 2015

<p>In order to achieve the Global Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) there is need for enhanced global partnerships in areas such as trade, health, security, environmental sustainability, food security and education. Owing to these initiatives Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs), Official Foreign Development Assistance (ODAs) and other external capital flows are increasingly considered as drivers of economic growth for developing countries. By year 2000 FDIs flow to developing countries accounted for 19% of the total global FDI flow compared to 52% in 2010. Collectively FDI equates to 11% of global GDP and generates close to 80 million jobs globally. Global FDI totaled to US$ 1.2 trillion in 2010, US$ 1.4 trillion in 2011 and US$ 1.8 trillion in 2012. Similarly, the developing countries received half of the FDI and only invested a quarter of the FDI out flow. Studies show that FDIs contributes to economic growth by stimulating several macro-economic and demographic variables which are major agents of economic growth. This paper sought to explain the effect of FDI on the determinants of economic growth human capital development, financial sector development and trade openness. A sample of 30 African countries was used for the study. The data used was retrieved from UNCTAD and World Bank online databases for the period between 1980 and 2012 and analyzed through a fixed effect regression model. The results of the study show that FDI had a positive impact on measures of financial sector development and trade openness. However the effect of FDI on human capital development was negative. The study recommends the need for favorable monetary policies that elicit more FDI for enhanced economic growth. The study also suggests increased global trade liberalization and integration to boost trade. Finally the study recommends that additional FDI flows should be directed towards human capital development. </p>
Relevance of Classical Management Theories to Modern Public Administration: A Review
Authors: Nhema Alfred G. 
Published: September 2015

ABSTRACTThis study focuses on the analysis of management theories of the 19th and early 20th centuries that are commonly referred to as classical organization theories. These ideas are contrasted with the human relations school of thought that achieved great popularity in the 1930s and 1940s. The study asserts that there are valuable lessons that modern public bureaucracies and other public institutions can draw from these early theoretical frameworks. Public organizations molded on the classical organizational management theoretical perspectives have proven remarkably stable in different circumstances around the world. However, they are now increasingly expected to adapt to new and unforeseen circumstances by integrating the foundations inherited from the past and the lessons learnt over the past three decades. Such an approach will enable public institutions to adapt to rapid changing circumstances and in the process be well equipped to meet the demands of their citizens at the levels of theory and practice. Key words: classical organization theory, human relations perspectives, rationality, rule of law, public administration.

Experimental study of liquid movement in free elementary convective cells
Authors: Bozbiei Liudmyla , Borts Boris , Kazarinov Yuri , Kostikov Andrey , Tkachenko Viktor 
Published: September 2015

Elementary convection cells (ECC) are formed in horizontal layers of liquid heated from below, and they are experimentally investigated in this work. Results of experimental studies were adequately described by the theoretical model of ECC. It is shown that the addition of aluminum powder to oil transforms oil to a suspension, such that boundary conditions on the solid wall can be regarded as free because there is a slip through the tape of pure oil. Change in the character of boundary conditions is confirmed by the results of numerical processing of experimental results on formation of convective rings on the layer surface by other authors. Two independent methods for determining the velocity of mass transfer in cells with various diameters are described in the article. For cells with a large diameter (17 mm), the maximum velocity of mass transfer was measured at the upper boundary on a deflection angle of the probe. Measured in this way velocity was equal to V<sub>Oil</sub> ≈ 0.2 mm/sec. For cells with a smaller diameter (2 mm), the velocity of oil on the surface of a cell was measured using an optical method and constituted the value from 3.5 mm/s to 5.2 mm/s.
La Palme présente Displicuit Nasus Tuus : quand la caricature sert de discours politique au Québec
Authors: Turgeon Alexandre 
Published: September 2015

Le 29 juin 1944, le gouvernement libéral d’Adélard Godbout déclenche des élections au Québec. Affaibli par son appui à Mackenzie King, le Parti libéral provincial se tourne vers le caricaturiste Robert La Palme pour la production d’une brochure intitulée La Palme présente Displicuit Nassus Tuus – du latin « Ton nez a déplu », en référence au nez de Maurice Duplessis, chef de l’Union nationale. Cette brochure ne contient que des caricatures. Si l’usage de la caricature dans ce contexte n’est pas particulier, on ne peut en dire autant de la place qui lui est accordée dans ce document. Pour étudier cette brochure, nous nous intéresserons aux stratégies électorales employées ainsi qu’aux caricatures choisies, afin de faire ressortir les thématiques et les enjeux privilégiés par le Parti libéral provincial. Dans cette brochure, il semble en fait y avoir confusion des genres entre caricature et discours politique. Cet article montre que la caricature sert de discours politique dans la brochure La Palme présente Displicuit Nassus Tuus, pavant la voie à la stratégie libérale contre Duplessis dans les années à venir. Les effets dépasseront le camp libéral pour se faire ressentir dans le discours antiduplessiste qui commence à prendre forme.
“We All Used to Meet at the Hall”: Assessing the Significance of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Toronto, 1900–1950
Authors: Marano Carla 
Published: September 2015

This article discusses the unique factors that led the UNIA in Toronto to become a central fixture in the city’s black community and to the Garvey movement as a whole. Beginning in 1919, the Toronto Division served as a secular outlet for blacks in the city to express their concerns over racism, politics, employment, and the community. Using interviews, newspapers, and official UNIA records, this article explains how meaningful this organization was to the growth, security, and well-being of Toronto’s black community.
Although this study delves into local history, it is also concerned with transnational relations – primarily, Toronto’s place within the African diaspora. The Toronto Division forged relationships with members around the world while taking part in various UNIA activities that transcended provincial and national boundaries. This article, then, assesses the significance of cross-division cooperation and Toronto’s role in the survival of the Garvey movement in Canada and abroad. Since most members of the UNIA in Toronto were Caribbean immigrants, this essay explores the UNIA’s compatibility with West Indian political and cultural ideals. In this way, this research sets Toronto’s black communities firmly within the African diaspora.
Briser les paradigmes : arts électroniques et actions humanitaires

Published: September 2015

Nous vivons dans un monde qui atteint un point critique où l’équilibre complexe actuel entre un environnement sain, l’énergie dont notre société a besoin pour maintenir ou améliorer son mode de vie et les économies interdépendantes pourrait basculer plus rapidement que prévu dans une toute nouvelle réalité où le déséquilibre serait la règle et les êtres humains devraient être plus créatifs que jamais pour survivre. Les problèmes environnementaux, l’incertitude économique et la complexité politique existent depuis longtemps. Mais ce qui était différent auparavant était la vitesse et la profondeur des transformations, comparativement à la rapidité actuelle des changements. La fréquence et la gravité de certains événements météorologiques et climatiques augmentent, et la capacité des êtres humains à modifier leur environnement direct ou éloigné est devenue une puissance capable de transformer la planète entière. L’art électronique a-t-il un rôle à jouer ? Les artistes électroniques ont-ils une responsabilité dans ce contexte ? Visant à utiliser l’art électronique comme un catalyseur, dans le but d’engendrer une prise de conscience plus profonde et de créer des partenariats durables de travail intellectuel pour résoudre notre crise environnementale, trois initiatives ont été lancées : Balance-Unbalance, « art ! ⋈ climate » et EChO.
Ear to the Earth: It Started in the Dark
Authors: Chadabe Joel 
Published: September 2015

Ear to the Earth was an idea that grew out of a power failure on the coast of Maine while I was on vacation. Back in New York, and using acoustic ecology as a conceptual basis, I proposed environmental-sound events to colleagues at the Electronic Music Foundation. The first major festival took place in October 2006. Dr. Cynthia Rosenzweig, Senior Research Scientist at the NASA Goddard Space Center and leader of the Climate Impacts Group, pointed out that climate change was a fact. The first festival, which took place at various venues in New York City, included seven concerts, three panels, and seven installations, among them Suspended Sounds, using sounds of extinct, endangered, and threatened species contributed by The Macaulay Library at the Cornell University Lab of Ornithology. The festival, as a program of the Electronic Music Foundation, became an annual event every October in New York until 2013. In November 2012, we recreated it with an enlarged mission as an independent non-profit corporation in New York.

Development, factor structure and application of the Dog Obesity Risk and Appetite (DORA) questionnaire
Authors: Raffan Eleanor , Smith Stephen P. , O’Rahilly Stephen , Wardle Jane 
Published: September 2015

Background.Dogs are compelling models in which to study obesity since the condition shares many characteristics between humans and dogs. Differences in eating behaviour are recognised to contribute to obesity susceptibility in other species but this has not been systematically studied in dogs.Aim.To develop and validate an owner-reported measure of canine eating behaviour and owner or dog related factors which can alter the development of obesity. Further, to then test variation in food-motivation in dogs and its association with obesity and owner management.Methods.Owner interviews, a literature review and existing human appetite scales were used to identify relevant topics and generate items for the questionnaire. Following a pilot phase, a 75 item online questionnaire was distributed via social media. Responses from 302 dog/owner dyads were analysed and factor structure and descriptive statistics calculated. Results were compared with descriptions of dog behaviour and management from a subset of respondents during semi-structured interviews. The optimum questions were disseminated as a 34 item final questionnaire completed by 213 owners, with a subset of respondents repeating the questionnaire 3 weeks later to assess test–retest reliability.Results.Analysis of responses to the final questionnaire relating to 213 dog/owner dyads showed a coherent factor structure and good test–retest reliability. There were three dog factors (food responsiveness and satiety, lack of selectivity, Interest in food), four owner factors (owner motivation to control dog weight, owner intervention to control dog weight, restriction of human food, exercise taken) and two dog health factors (signs of gastrointestinal disease, current poor health). Eating behaviour differed between individuals and between breed groups. High scores on dog factors (high food-motivation) and low scores on owner factors (less rigorous control of diet/exercise) were associated with obesity. Owners of more highly food-motivated dogs exerted more control over their dogs’ food intake than those of less food-motivated dogs.Conclusions.The DORA questionnaire is a reliable and informative owner-reported measure of canine eating behaviour and health and management factors which can be associated with obesity development. The tool will be applicable to study of the canine obesity model and to clinical veterinarians. Results revealed eating behaviour to be similarly associated with obesity as exercise and owners giving titbits.
Thalassemys bruntrutanan. sp., a new coastal marine turtle from the Late Jurassic of Porrentruy (Switzerland), and the paleobiogeography of the Thalassemydidae
Authors: Püntener Christian , Anquetin Jérémy , Billon-Bruyat Jean-Paul 
Published: September 2015

Background.The Swiss Jura Mountains are a key region for Late Jurassic eucryptodiran turtles. Already in the mid 19th century, the Solothurn Turtle Limestone (Solothurn, NW Switzerland) yielded a great amount of Kimmeridgian turtles that are traditionally referred to Plesiochelyidae, Thalassemydidae, and Eurysternidae. In the past few years, fossils of these coastal marine turtles were also abundantly discovered in the Kimmeridgian of the Porrentruy region (NW Switzerland). These findings include numerous sub-complete shells, out of which we present two new specimens ofThalassemys(Thalassemydidae) in this study.Methods.We compare the new material from Porrentruy to the type speciesTh. hugii, which is based on a well preserved specimen from the Solothurn Turtle Limestone (Solothurn, Switzerland). In order to improve our understanding of the paleogeographic distribution ofThalassemys, anatomical comparisons are extended toThalassemysremains from other European countries, notably Germany and England.Results.While one of the twoThalassemysspecimens from Porrentruy can be attributed toTh. hugii, the other specimen represents a new species,Th. bruntrutanan. sp. It differs fromTh. hugiiby several features: more elongated nuchal that strongly thickens anterolaterally; wider vertebral scales; proportionally longer plastron; broader and less inclined xiphiplastron; wider angle between scapular process and acromion process. Our results show thatTh. hugiiandTh. bruntrutanaalso occur simultaneously in the Kimmeridgian of Solothurn as well as in the Kimmeridgian of England (Kimmeridge Clay). This study is an important step towards a better understanding of the paleobiogeographic distribution of Late Jurassic turtles in Europe.
