Subjects: Kisan Credit Card, Agriculture, Awareness, Credit, Banks.

description: Abstract

Agriculture plays an important role in Indian Economy as it provides employment to half of the country’s population. Hence it is necessary to study the credit facilities available for the farmers for increased productivity and development of the sector. Kisan Credit Card is one of the nationalized schemes operated at all types of banks all over India, which is introduced to meet the credit requirements of farmers such as agriculture inputs and farm household expenses. The study mainly focuses on the factors influencing the farmers’ decision to adopt and utilize kisan credit card scheme facilities in Kalaburagi district, Karnataka. For the study along with demographic details many variables are considered such as awareness of KCC, perspective towards KCC, access to KCC, perceived benefits of KCC, socio-economic Factors, peer influence and social networks. The reliability is checked among the variables, which results in a positive note towards the study.

description: For decades, tobacco was regarded almost exclusively as a problem of individual behavior. Interventions focused primarily on discouraging use and helping individuals who wanted to quit tobacco. More recently, public health has identified the tobacco industry as the vector of the tobacco disease epidemic. This shift has opened new avenues for intervention, including the idea of a tobacco “endgame,” which has gained prominence in the last five years. Proponents of a tobacco “endgame” argue for moving beyond tobacco control (which assumes the continued presence of tobacco as a common, widely-available consumer product) toward an explicit plan to achieve a tobacco-free future within a set time period. What it would mean to be tobacco-free, and how a jurisdiction might achieve that goal, are issues currently being explored by tobacco control advocates. Advancing an endgame will require further tobacco control policy innovation, which has usually come from cities or counties. Localities pioneered such efforts as smoke-free laws, which later were adopted at higher levels of government. Thus, it is important to examine the prospects for endgame initiatives at the local level. Moreover, local policy innovators will need to understand how the tobacco industry – with its long history of vigorously opposing most tobacco control policy changes – is likely to respond. Although much is known about tobacco industry strategies against common tobacco control measures, no research to date has documented how the industry has anticipated and prepared for the prospect of a tobacco endgame. The aims of this project are to: 1) conduct a set of case studies of selected California locales (n=8) identified as strong candidates for implementing tobacco control policy innovations to assess community readiness to initiate tobacco endgame planning and identify obstacles to doing so; and 2) retrieve and analyze tobacco industry documents in order to describe the industry’s understanding of endgame-oriented measures and its plans and strategies for opposing them. California is uniquely positioned to achieve a tobacco endgame, due to the effectiveness of its state tobacco control program in changing public views of tobacco and of the tobacco industry, public support for stronger policy measures, and dedicated resources. This study will create a body of knowledge for advocates and policymakers to draw upon as they consider next policy steps to advance an endgame in their own cities and counties.

Comments: This species is similar to the previous one, but seems to be rarer. It was found in swampy forests near the Luo and Lopori rivers. There seems to be some differences in the structure of verrucosity compared to the previous species, which may indicate some ecological differences. All our specimens have a more or less visible light yellowish dorsal stripe. The size of the tympanum is larger in this species, being approximately the size of the eye. However, the margin of the tympanum (tympanic annulus) is not very distinct.

Anti-Racist Practice and Black Womanhood: An Exploratory and Emancipatory Study Into Anti-Racist Practice in Educational Psychology Through the Perspectives of Black Women Educational Psychologists
Creators: name: Ebanks, Zoe
Publisher: name: University of East London
Year: 2024

description: This thesis aimed to explore the thoughts, feelings and experiences of Black women Educational Psychologists (EPs) on anti-racism in educational psychology. It also identifies the key features of anti-racist educational psychology practice from their perspective. Five semi-structured interviews were completed and analysed through Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Findings suggested that Black Women EPs valued their Black identities and Intersectionality. They were motivated and engaged in Anti-Racism, but there was also some uncomfortable positioning, challenging experiences and problematic encounters. Black women valued the increased discourse around anti-racism and other EPs who are engaged in anti-racist practice, but more must be done to support their experiences and to embed anti-racism throughout the educational psychology profession. The key features of anti racist practice included individual EPs introspection, reflection and knowledge development, embedded engagement, the active challenging of racism and systemic support from services. Several implications for EP practice are provided regarding the practicalities of implementing anti-racism for individual EPs and Educational Psychology Services. Using the principles of Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality and Black Feminist Theory, this thesis aimed to explore anti-racism from a unique and underrepresented perspective.

description: The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), the San Francisco AIDS Foundation (SFAF), and Project Inform seek to create an AIDS Policy Research Center (APRC) to conduct timely research to help policymakers, planning councils, and community organizations address the HIV epidemic in the State of California. Research conducted at the APRC will be guided by an external Policy Research Advisory Committee (PRAC) that guarantees regular and ongoing communication between the scientific investigators and community partners. The PRAC will consist of 10 to 12 individuals from non-governmental and community-based HIV/AIDS organizations, public health offices, and clinical care and prevention services programs throughout the State of California. Committee members will have knowledge of ongoing HIV-related policy issues and efforts at the national, state, and local levels. The PRAC will hold at least two in-person meetings during each year of the grant. Members will work the scientific investigators to identify important policy issues that require a rapid response, and will provide feedback on findings from the research. The PRAC also will be available to assist and advise in dissemination of research findings. The work of the APRC will include a a Rapid Response Core and a set of planned research projects. The purpose of the Rapid Response Core will be to identify HIV-related policy issues affecting California, to develop specific research questions and to design studies that answer critical questions of relevance to pressing policy issues, to collect and analyze research data, and to relay findings back to policymakers and other individuals involved in the formulation of policies. The planned research projects will focus on issues related to the reauthorization of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program during a time of possible healthcare reform and the development of a National AIDS Strategy. The research will consist of three studies. For the first study, we will conduct interviews with providers and local planning council members to understand how they believe it is best to organize the response to HIV. We then will ask these participants to identify the medical and support services that they believe are essential for delivering effective HIV care and prevention. For the second study, we will develop models that examine the potential costs to California to effectively deliver services in California under possible healthcare reforms. For the third study, we will conduct interviews with leaders in the organization and design of HIV services in California. We will ask these individuals to identify the objectives that a National AIDS Strategy must include to best address HIV in California. We also will explore how the State could best implement a national strategy.

Habitats. Subtropical tidal reefs and on aquaculture nets in the tropics.
Occurrences. Zavora and Pemba.
Geographic distribution. Indo-west, central Pacific. French Polynesia (Boserelle et al. 2013), Hawaii, Midway Atoll (Gosliner et al. 2008), Guam (Carlson & Hoff 2003), Japan (Nakano 2004), Philippines, Malaysia (Carmona et al. 2013), New Caledonia (Risbec 1928), Malasya (Carmona et al. 2017b), Tanzania, Seychelles (Gosliner et al. 2008), South Africa (Gosliner 1987) and Mozambique.
Remarks. Two morphotypes were found in Mozambique: (1) cream-white with an orange line surrounding the base of the rhinophores (Fig. 33 I) and (2) white with an orange dorsal patch posterior to the rhinophores (Fig. 33 J). Carmona et al. (2017) investigated several morphotypes from the Indo-Pacific with different orange patterns and found that they were variations of B. alba. Nevertheless, they enphasise that they did not have material from East Africa and that further investigation including specimens from this region was needed because peripherical regions such as Mozambique and South Africa are likely to have endemic species for this genus.

description: This thesis illustrates Betty Carter’s musical development as a jazz vocalist beginning   in the bebop era to her untimely passing in 1998, her essential impact on vocal jazz, her accomplishments, and extraordinary legacy. The thesis also outlines a brief history of vocal jazz with a music collection and jazz vocalist classification and the aesthetic elements of “the voice” with regards to improvisation and artistic confidence. The objective of this aspect will provide a practical understanding of vocal styling and individuality, while emphasizing Betty Carter’s methodical “vocally instrumental” approach to jazz. Such other features of this thesis contain contemporary ideas and perceptions on new jazz studies to highlight the expansion of women’s contributions to jazz in contrast to the historical tradition of jazz history. In addition, a transcription of one of Carter’s scat solos with phonetic spellings of scat syllables is included.

Effects of methoxychlor in ovarian granulosa cell in vitro
Creators: name: Harvey, Craig Nicholas
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2012

description: Methoxychlor (MXC) has been shown to alter ovarian folliculogenesis through inhibition of granulosa cell steroidogenesis, which is required for normal reproductive physiology.  The process of granulosa cell differentiation requires estrogen to augment follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) activity and the ovulatory response to gonadotropins. This dissertation focuses on the effect of methoxychlor, which is suspected of acting through its metabolite, 2,2-bis-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-1, 1, 1-trichloroethane (HPTE), on granulosa cell function. HPTE acts as an estrogen receptor α agonist and an estrogen receptor β antagonist. The well characterized immature rat granulosa cell model was used to generate samples for analysis of intracellular cAMP, protein, and gene expression. The transcriptional responses induced by MXC and HPTE were investigated using Affymetrix microarray Rat Genome 230 2.0. Alterations in guanine nucleotide binding protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) signaling were suggested to be affected by MXC and HPTE. G-protein coupled receptors (e.g. FSH and LHR) are among the most common and successful drug targets produced by pharmaceutical companies and are critical to granulosa cell differentiation.   Recent reports suggest that estrogen receptor β is required for FSH-induced granulosa cell differentiation, response to gonadotropins (i.e., LHR) in the pre-ovulatory follicle, and maximal cAMP production. MXC and HPTE reduced FSH-mediated LHR expression and cAMP levels. Our results using two estrogen receptor β antagonists, ICI 182,&80 (fulvestrant or falsodex) and 4-[2-phenyl-5,&-bis (tri-fluoro-methyl) pyrazolo [1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl] phenol (PTHPP) support an association between estrogen receptor expression β and cAMP. However, co-treatment of granulosa cells with an estrogen receptor β agonist, diarylpropionitrile (DPN), did not reverse the effect of HPTE on cAMP. While there are clear differences in the morphology of FSH-stimulated granulosa cells treated with HPTE and MXC, as well as production of estradiol 1&β (E2) when compared to FSH-alone, the use of dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) was protective against the effects of MXC and HPTE on gene expression and steroidogenesis. Furthermore, MXC and HPTE suppressed estrogen signaling through inhibition of estrogen receptor expression and E2 production. We showed that cell viability was unaffected by MXC or HPTE at high doses, but MXC and HPTE did induce significant changes in gene expression and pathway activity.

Material: CSB:Herp: RNBK 093, 098, 135, 136, 150, 151, 153, 162, 165, 167, 174, 200, 338, 354, 381, 388, 398, 408, 435, 438, 454, 467, 508, 517, 593, 672, 674.
Comments: This species was described from westcentral Angola and is known to occur throughout much of the Congo Basin, in Uganda, and in western Kenya. The subspecies A. osorioi congicus (Laurent 1941) was described from northern DRC, with the presumed distribution in northern and eastern DRC (Laurent 1972). Later, Laurent (1982) noted that specimens of A. osorioi from central Congo (Sankuru) were found to be intermediate between the nominotypical subspecies
and ssp. congicus and explained this pattern as a clinal variation. Laurent agreed with other earlier authors (e.g., Perret 1976b) to synonymize ssp. congicus with the nominotypical subspecies. However, a detailed investigation of the geographic morphological variation and molecular phylogeography of the species may reveal a more complex pattern in the future and possibly resurrect the congicus taxon. This name could also be applicable for the central Congolian population. In Kokolopori, A. osorioi was found in ponds or along streams usually in open habitats, but it was also recorded in disturbed flooded forest together with A. cf. quadrivittatus. Most males were found calling, hidden in higher herbaceous vegetation, and some were found in amplexus. Based on a comparison of three similar Congolian forest species (A. equatorialis, A. leucostictus Laurent, 1950, and A. osorioi), Laurent (1982) mentioned that A. leucostictus can turn its coloration into dark brown, almost without pattern, a condition which rarely happens in A. osorioi. However, some of the Kokolopori specimens of A. osorioi were dark brown, with their dorsal pattern barely visible.

Diagnosis: Wall composed of eight, six or four plates, without any whorls of supplementary plates; mandible tridentoid or quadridentoid.
Comment: Pérez-Losada et al. (2012b) conducted a multigene molecular phylogeny in Chthamaloidea and showedthatthesubfamiliesChthamalinae,Euraphinae and Notochthamalinae are not monophyletic groups. We did not retain these subfamilies and assign all these genera under Chthamalidae. Neither the number of plates nor the number of mandibular, cuticular ‘teeth’ reflects any phylogenetic pattern in Chthamalidae, as reflected in previous subfamily assignments.

Neuronal adaptive responses to oxygen deprivation

description: Adaptability to changing environmental oxygen levels is important for the survival of aerobic organisms. Neurons in particular are vulnerable to oxygen deprivation (hypoxia), and hypoxia-induced degeneration is a hallmark of ischemic stroke, a leading cause of morbidity and disability. Ischemic stroke damages neurons through a combination of hypoxia-induced neuronal membrane depolarization, excess glutamate receptor activation, altered intracellular calcium homeostasis, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Neurons from different species or even from different brain regions of the same species have varying tolerances to oxygen deprivation, yet little is known about how neurons adapt to the stress of oxygen deprivation. Examining the causality of this differential resistance is particularly challenging in mammalian neurons given their inherent sensitivity to this stress. The soil nematode C. elegans serves as a hypoxia-adaptable model organism that can be used to examine how neurons handle oxygen deprivation. In thedissertation work presented here, I have employed C. elegans to study the hypoxic regulation of two key cell biological components important for the progression of hypoxia–induced neuronal death: glutamate receptors andmitochondria. In these studies, I report our identification of a novel variant of the hypoxia response pathway dedicated to the modulation of C. elegans glutamate receptor trafficking. In addition, I report that the dynamics of mitochondrial fissionand fusion are altered in response to oxygen deprivation in C. elegans neurons. I also present data suggesting that the canonical hypoxia response pathway regulates this dynamic response. These alterations in glutamate receptor trafficking and mitochondrial dynamics are accompanied by behavioral changes and possibly promote survival in response to oxygen deprivation. My findings indicate that neurons protect themselves by executing a complex and multilayered homeostatic response to reduced oxygen availability thatincorporates both transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms.

description: In California and locally in Alameda County, HIV disproportionately impacts African American and Latino men who have sex with men (MSM). This study will develop and test an innovative strategy to identify MSM who are unaware of their status, have them test for HIV and for those that are positive, link them to HIV care and services. The proposed intervention will have MSM, called “seeds,” reach out to their social networks and recruit their peers to take an HIV test using a self-test kit. Seeds will be trained to deliver prevention messages that encourage their friends and peers who are at risk for HIV to take the HIV self-test. The seeds provide support through the testing process and if the peer is found to be positive, they will assist in linking the peer to HIV care and services. The use of the self-test kit has the potential to overcome many of the structural barriers to testing, such as stigma, discrimination, homophobia, privacy concerns, lack of access to care, mistrust of medical providers and wait times in clinical settings. This intervention strategy also has the potential to reach young MSM who don’t normally test, by accessing this hard-to-reach population in a place where testing can occur immediately and the men are in control of the process. The study aims to examine how well the proposed intervention identifies MSM who had been undiagnosed and how well the intervention links HIV positive MSM to care.

description: Several drugs have been developed to target HER2, of which tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as lapatinib, offer the most promising approach to inactivate HER2. However TKIs show disappointingly modest effects in clinical trials, creating a dilemma that casts doubt on the promise of the target HER2. Our laboratory recently resolved this dilemma by discovering that it is actually the complex of HER2 and its partner HER3 that drives these breast cancers, and the inactivation of the HER2-HER3 complex requires much higher doses of TKIs than inhibiting HER2 alone. Such high doses are not tolerable on an everyday schedule. However, we previously demonstrated in mouse models that the much higher HER2-HER3 inactivating doses can be administered if given on a 5-day intermittent schedule. In previous human studies, we escalated the dose of a 5-day lapatinib course in a phase I clinical study. However we found that patients did not consistently achieve high blood levels of lapatinib despite the high doses of lapatinib pills.

 In this study, we propose a new phase for the dose escalation study of 5-day intermittent oral lapatinib therapy designed to overcome this pharmacologic barrier. In order to increase lapatinib bioavailability we will employ four separate strategies: 1) the “food-effect” (i.e., administering the drug with concomitant food intake), 2) the CYP3A4 inhibition effect (i.e., reducing the body’s ability to metabolize the drug), 3) the dose fractionation effect, and 4) dose escalation effect. These approaches will be conducted in serial cohorts (i.e., sequential groups of patients) in an adaptive design with assessment of plasma lapatinib concentrations and tumor exposure at each cohort. When the maximally tolerated dose-form of the 5-day lapatinib course is defined, we will proceed to determine its maximally tolerated density. Since complete HER2 inactivation may affect cardiac function, the study includes rigorous cardiac safety analysis including analysis of transient toxicities at peak HER2 inactivation and cumulative toxicities with repeated cycles. Exploratory scientific studies will be performed on tumor fine-needle aspirates to determine the effects of lapatinib exposure on HER2-HER3 and downstream signaling to confirm the biological mechanism of action.

 Several HER2-targeting therapies to date have been developed, yet the scientific evidence suggests that their successes represent only the tip of the iceberg, since these treatments do not effectively inactivate HER2. If our hypothesis is proven, the total inactivation of HER2 can potentially induce complete regression of disease and possible disease eradication, even in patients with advanced disease. The impact on breast cancer mortality would be unprecedented.

description: Both human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human herpes virus infections persist lifelong, and almost all individuals infected with HIV are also co-infected with one or more human herpes virus, and cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common. Recent studies demonstrated that HIV-infected individuals experience frequent bursts of CMV replication and that these episodes (although mostly asymptomatic) are associated with increased inflammation and proliferation of T cells in blood. Presence of CMV replication has also been associated with a larger HIV DNA reservoir during suppressive antiretroviral therapy, but the mechanisms underlying these associations are still unclear. This CHRP IDEA proposal was specifically designed to further investigate this complex relationship and to explore possible immunologic mechanisms connecting intermittent CMV reactivation and the size of the HIV DNA reservoir. Our overarching hypothesis is that in HIV-infected persons receiving suppressive ART, bursts of CMV replication induces both host-derived and virus-derived IL-10, which then drives CD4 T cells to express PD-1. The expression of PD-1 then promotes persistence of replication-competent HIV in CD4 T cells. This hypothesis will be tested using innovative technologies (including droplet digital PCR, multicolor flow cytometry and viral induction assays) on unique well-characterized stored peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and genital secretions from 40 HIV-infected participants in the San Diego Primary Infection Consortium (SD-PIRC). Further, in collaboration with Drs. Vanpouille and Margolis (at the NIH) and using peripheral cells and human tissue cultures from healthy donors, we will explore exactly how CMV stimulates the expression of immune-modulatory molecules, like IL-10 and PD-1. Based on recent observations, these connections are likely important, and could be a target of pharmacologic intervention. Such strategies could be important for both reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with HIV infection and for the design of future HIV eradication strategies.
