Authors: Sana Erlyn A. , Atienza Melflor A. , Mojica Jose Alvin P. , Abarquez Lupe F. , Fajutagana Nemuel S. 
Published: February 2023

Objectives. To evaluate the relevance, usefulness, applicability, responsiveness, acceptability, efficiency, overall impact and sustainability of the Master of Science in Epidemiology-Clinical Epidemiology (MSE-CE) curriculum.
Methods. The context, input, process and product evaluation (CIPP) design was used. Of 106 alumni and students, 100 were contacted and 80 participated in a survey. Key informant interviews, directobservation and focus group discussions with faculty members, present and past administrators, selected alumni and students, and review of data were done. The results were analyzed usingdescriptive statistics and content analysis.
Results. Context evaluation revealed that MSE-CE responded to the need to train physicians to use research evidence in clinical decision-making. Despite some reservations among other UP colleges, the program pushed through due to support from local and international sponsors. Alumni and students appreciated the effectiveness of their teachers and complementing instructional resources. The range of work by its graduates, the networks established, and the expansion of the Department of ClinicalEpidemiology (DCE, the UP department offering the MSE-CE program) prove that the MSE-CE is a sustainable post-graduate program.
Conclusion. The MSE-CE institutionalized clinical epidemiology as a distinct discipline among medical colleges in the Philippines.
Formative Research to Develop and Test Messages to Educate Mothers on Zinc Supplementation in Childhood Diarrhea
Authors: Acuin Cecilia S. , Vargas Alberta S. , Cordero Cynthia P. 
Published: February 2023

Background. Zinc is now recommended as part of childhood diarrhea case management but there are concerns regarding treatment duration and perceptions of its use when given with ORT.Objectives. This study developed and tested messages on zinc supplementation for childhood diarrhea.Methods. Messages were based on 1) a review of literature and product advertisements, 2) drugstore seller interviews, and 3) focus group discussions (FGDs) among 10 mothers with children six to 59 months old. Subsequent FGDs with 15 mothers consulting at a government hospital helped determine message clarity, comprehension and appeal. A behavioral trial, involving nine mothers whose children had diarrhea, tested recall of and adherence to the messages.Results. The trial tested three messages—Zinc: 1) strengthens resistance; 2) is a vitamin for the gut; 3) increases the appetite of a child with diarrhea. Seven of nine mothers were able to follow instructions on zinc administration, and demonstrated recall and understanding of these messages. Mothers understood that zinc helps the child with diarrhea, improves appetite, reduces symptoms and hastens recovery, but had concerns regarding the side effects (vomiting), co-morbidities (fever, cough) andconsequences of overdose. Standardized counseling cards addressed these concerns. Respondents preferred a simple logo labeled “zinc” with zinc administration instructions on the packaging. Zinc supplementation did not affect ORT use.
Conclusion and Recommendations. Messages sufficiently addressed mothers’ concerns on zinc use during childhood diarrhea, with those on zinc improving “resistance” and as a “vitamin for the gut” having the best recall. Results can contribute to zinc’s introduction and promotion in the public sector.

Published: February 2023

Objective. The main aim of this study was to determine patient satisfaction with nursing care (PSNC) in the medical wards of the UP-Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) using a valid and reliable locally developed UP-PGH PSNC questionnaire.
Methods. The survey utilized a cross-sectional study design and was conducted in the medical wards of the UP-PGH in 2006. A total of 237 patients were included in the survey.Results. Over a third or 34.3% (95% CI 28%, 40%) and 35% (95% CI 26%, 44%) were highly satisfied with their experience regarding the nurses’ caring attitude and the nurses’ skill/competence respectively. Fewer respondents were highly satisfied with the nurses as information providers, with only 17.2% (95% CI 12%, 22%) saying they were highly satisfied. A little over half or 57.8% (95% CI 52%, 64%) were highly satisfied in the overall evaluation of care.Conclusion. The patients were satisfied with the nursing care provided in two dimensions: The nurse as a caring person and the nurse as a skilled and competent healthcare provider, although only about a third indicated that they were highly satisfied. Nevertheless, 57.8% were highly satisfied in the overallevaluation of care, but these patients may have considered other hospital services and cost. Other factors that might affect patient satisfaction need to be explored and the use of other evaluation tools to augment these findings is recommended.

The Fatimids 2
Authors: Jiwa Shainool 
Published: February 2023

One of the most prosperous and influential dynasties of the Muslim world, the Fatimids (909–1171) were distinguished by their Imam-caliphs, who asserted religious as well as political authority in direct descent from the family of the Prophet. Their conquest of Egypt in 969 marked the inception of a burgeoning Mediterranean empire. From there, they refined their systems of administration, judiciary, and governance, instilling principles of inclusion which contributed to stability during their caliphate. Fatimid Cairo flourished as a vibrant cultural and intellectual centre through patronage of the arts, architecture, and scholarship.
This book continues the story of the Fatimids from their newly founded capital of Cairo. Introducing the figures who moulded the empire, Shainool Jiwa charts the Fatimids’ expansion, the reasons behind their ultimate fall by the hand of Saladin, and the legacy that continues with the living Ismaili communities today. This lively and engaging work, including maps and colour images, draws on a broad range of primary sources to lead readers through two centuries that witnessed the triumphs and trials of the only sustained Shi’i caliphate to rule across the medieval Islamic world.
Smell and the Past
Authors: Tullett William 
Published: February 2023

‘What if researchers interested in ‘the past’ used their noses? This open access book makes the case for a more imaginatively interdisciplinary approach to sensory heritage and history, arguing that we can and should engage our noses as a research tool for articulating the past.’
Assessing how both we and our ancestors approach, understand and conceptualise smell, Tullett shows how archives can be ‘re-odorized’ to uncover narratives that are only implicit in or obscured by the historical record. From perfume libraries to organic compounds emitted by historical objects, this book acts as a guide for employing our olfactory senses when researching and studying history in order to understand and communicate the past more fully. Employing ‘olfactory figures’ examples, Smell and the Past shows how historical narratives and arguments can be found through a structured olfactory experience, and demonstrates how our understanding of the past and its relationship with the present is enriched by opening our minds and using our noses.

Why fitness impacts of different herbivores may combine nonadditively, and why it matters to the ecology and evolution of plant-herbivore communities
Authors: Wise Michael J. 
Published: February 2023

Background and aims – The manner by which the effects of multiple antagonists combine is a fundamental issue in ecology. This issue has been especially important in plant-herbivore evolutionary ecology—particularly predicting whether the combined fitness impacts of multiple herbivores on a shared host plant can be inferred by simply adding the individual impacts that each herbivore has when feeding alone. Despite accumulating empirical data, relatively little theoretical progress has been made in explaining why impacts of herbivore damage often combine nonadditively, as well as predicting the conditions that lead to a greater-than-additive (synergistic) or to a less-than-additive (subadditive) pattern.
Material and methods – Based on considerations of limiting resources and source-sink relationships, I proposed and tested two hypotheses: 1) The fitness impacts of two species of herbivores that affect the same resource (i.e. feed on the same tissue in a similar fashion) will combine in a synergistic pattern (if that resource is not limiting reproduction when plants do not experience herbivory), and 2) The fitness impacts of two herbivores that affect different resources (i.e. feed on different tissues) will combine in a subadditive pattern. I performed a field experiment in which horsenettle (Solanum carolinense) was exposed to a factorial combination of four levels of leaf herbivory and five levels of simulated floral herbivory.
Key results – The results were consistent with both hypotheses: 1) The combined fitness impact of flower damage that was simulated as being caused by two florivorous species feeding on the same plants was greater than the sum of the same total amount of damage when the two species were simulated as feeding individually; and 2) The combined fitness impact of the leaf and floral damage was less than the sum of the same total amount of damage when the two species fed individually.
Conclusions – The main ecoevolutionary implication of these results is that subadditive impacts of leaf- and flower-feeding herbivores could weaken selection for resistance in horsenettle (or any plant species that hosts multiple herbivores), and thus subadditive impacts may contribute to the maintenance of diverse herbivore communities sharing a species of host plant.

An ethnobotanical survey was conducted in the spices market of two provinces of China . This study aimed to describe the survey of spices sold and the availability of clove, nutmeg, and pepper in China and Indonesia markets. The study documented the knowledge of the utilization of pepper, clove, and nutmeg by Chinese and Indonesian people. Different communities based on their perceptions and experience use the same spice plants for many purposes. Unstructured interviews and literature study were also conducted to complement the data. Cloves, nutmeg, and pepper are the three kinds of main spices for the Chinese people. Indonesian people use nutmeg and clove for one particular type of cuisine, otherwise pepper is used in a variety of dishes, to provide a spicy flavour. Due to the medicinal properties of clove and nutmeg, Indonesian and Chinese people use clove not only as a spice but also for medicine. Apart from using it as a spice and medicine, Indonesian people also use nutmeg for snacks.

Authors: Raihandhany Reza , Wicaksono Adhityo , Da Silva Jaime A. Teixeira 
Published: February 2023

The Artocarpus J. R. & G. Forster genus is comprised of about 50 species. Artocarpus is derived from the Greek word artos, meaning bread while karpos means fruit. There are two species that are widely distributed in tropical regions, Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam., known as jackfruit, and Artocarpus altilis (Parkinson) Fosberg, known as breadfruit, both in the Moraceae or mulberry family. Both of these Artocarpus species have medicinal properties and biological activities that are derived from almost every part of the tree, fruit, seed, wood, bark, leaves and sap. This review examines the limited work that has been conducted on the biology and biotechnology of these two Artocarpus species with the hope that this knowledge may spur further basic and applied research.
La revocación de la privación del derecho a voto de las personas con discapacidad. El implacable reconocimiento y avance de un derecho propio de la discapacidad en el ordenamiento jurídico español
Authors: Montoyo González Sergio 
Published: February 2023

Han pasado ya más de 10 años desde la celebración en la ciudad de Nueva York de la Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad, la cual entró en vigor en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico el día 3 de mayo de 2008. Dicha convención ha supuesto un hito en materia de discapacidad y un verdadero tratado en cuanto a derechos sociales y humanos se refiere. A pesar de ello, de la celebración de multitud de congresos, de normativa reciente y promulgada en relación con el ámbito de la discapacidad, de novedosas sentencias judiciales, entre otros acontecimientos, no se han obtenido los ansiados resultados. Sin embargo, es dentro de la esfera del derecho constitucional donde se están produciendo, a día de hoy, grandes avances en lo referente al campo de la discapacidad. En el presente trabajo, vamos a analizar uno de estos avances constitucionales, el cual ha quedado reflejado en la supresión de la privación del derecho de sufragio a las personas con discapacidad, privación que suponía una vulneración flagrante de lo recogido en el artículo 29 de la Convención de Nueva York. Es por ello que la Ley 2/2018, de 5 de diciembre, de modificación de la Ley Orgánica 5/1985, de 19 de junio, del Régimen Electoral General, ha supuesto una victoria del llamado «derecho de la discapacidad».
