description: In this modern era, depression is one of the most prevalent mental disorders from which millions of individuals are affected today. The symptoms of depression are heterogeneous and often coincide with other disorders such as bipolar disorder, Parkinson’s, schizophrenia, etc. It is a serious mental illness that may lead to other health problems if left untreated. Currently, identifying individuals with depression is totally based on the expertise of the clinician’s experience. In order to assist clinicians in identifying the characteristics and classifying depressed people, different types of data modalities and machine learning techniques have been incorporated by researchers in this field. This study aims to find the answers to some important questions related to the trend of publications, data modality, machine learning models, dataset usage, pre-processing techniques and feature extraction and selection techniques that are prevalent and guide the direction of future research on depression diagnosis. This systematic review was conducted using a broad range of articles from two major databases: IEEE Xplore and PubMed. Studies ranging from the years 2011 to April 2021 were retrieved from the databases resulting in a total of 590 articles (53 articles from the IEEE Xplore database and 537 articles from the PubMed database). Out of those, the articles which satisfied the defined inclusion criteria were investigated for further analysis. A total of 135 articles were identified and analysed for this review. High growth in the number of publications has been observed in recent years. Furthermore, significant diversity in the use of data modalities and machine learning classifiers has also been noted in this study. fMRI data with an SVM classifier was found to be the most popular choice among researchers. In most of the studies, data scarcity and small sample size, particularly for neuroimaging data are major concerns. The use of identical data pre-processing tools for similar data modalities can be seen. This study also provides statistical analysis of the current framework with respect to the modality, machine learning classifier, sample size and accuracy by applying one-way ANOVA and the Tukey – Kramer test. The results indicate that an effective fusion of machine learning techniques with a potential data modality has a promising future for assisting clinicians in automatic depression diagnosis.

description: The robust enrollment in SPARTAN and SAMURAI provided the opportunity to present post-hoc descriptive details on migraine disease characteristics and treatment outcomes after treatment with lasmiditan, a selective serotonin (5-HT1F) receptor agonist, in racial and ethnic subgroups. Descriptive data from racial (White [W](n = 3471) and Black or African American [AA](n = 792)) and ethnic (Hispanic or Latinx [HL](n = 775) and Non-Hispanic or Latinx [Non-HL](n = 3637)) populations are presented on pooled data from two double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized Phase 3 studies (SAMURAI [NCT02439320] and SPARTAN [NCT2605174]). Patients were treated with lasmiditan (50 (SPARTAN only), 100, or 200 mg) or placebo for a single migraine attack of moderate-to-severe intensity. Efficacy data were recorded in an electronic diary at baseline, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min. Safety was evaluated and reported by occurrences of adverse events. Clinical characteristics were generally similar across populations. W participants had longer migraine history than AA participants, and Non-HL participants had more migraine disability than HL participants. In the lasmiditan single-attack studies, AA participants waited longer than W participants to take study drug. A higher proportion of HL participants rated baseline migraine severity as severe compared to Non-HL participants. Response to lasmiditan was similar across racial and ethnic groups, including pain response, freedom from most bothersome symptom and migraine-related disability, and safety and tolerability. Across multiple outcomes, AA and HL participants tended to report more positive outcomes. There were few differences in demographic and clinical characteristics across racial and ethnic groups. Similar lasmiditan efficacy and safety outcomes were observed in AA versus W participants, and in HL versus Non-HL participants. Small observed differences may be driven by a tendency toward a more positive response observed across all treatment groups by AA and HL participants.

description: To quantify health care resource utilization (HCRU) and costs associated with insomnia treated with commonly prescribed insomnia medications among patients with depression. A retrospective cohort study was conducted using IBM MarketScan Commercial and Medicare Supplemental Databases to identify adults with: (1) ≥1 ICD-9/ICD-10 code for depression; (2) ≥1 commonly prescribed medication for insomnia (zolpidem immediate release [IR], zolpidem extended release [ER], trazodone, or benzodiazepines); and (3) ≥12 months of eligibility before and after initiating insomnia medication. A 1:1 age- and sex-matched control cohort with depression but without sleep-related disorders was identified. Adjusted HCRU and costs were compared using generalized linear models. A total of 21,027 patients (mean age = 48.3 years, 69.5% female) with depression and treated insomnia (D + TI; 1.9% zolpidem ER, 32.0% zolpidem IR, 50.0% trazodone, 16.1% benzodiazepines) were matched to controls. Although mean number of inpatient visits were similar (0.1 for both), relative to controls, D + TI had a higher mean number of ED (0.2 vs 0.1, p p p Relative to controls with depression but without sleep disorders, overall, health care costs for adults with D + TI were 2.2-fold higher; costs and HCRU varied by insomnia medication. Further study of the impact of newer insomnia treatments on patient outcomes in depression and comorbid insomnia is warranted.

description: Integrated development takes into consideration the multidimensional nature of every issue. This thesis focuses on the issue of girls’ education and examines the many interconnected barriers which prevent girls from attending school specifically in the context of Niger, but also on a broader level. There must exist a supportive environment which enables girls to be able to access, attend and succeed in school, and this supportive environment must be created across sectors by addressing the many issues which prevent girls’ schooling: cost, health, physical access, culture and tradition etc. Multi-level and multisectoral partnerships of local and international NGOs and the government are necessary in order to carry out such a large scale package of interventions. These kinds of partnerships can be very challenging, but bringing agencies and organizations together across sectors with a common goal can effectively address the multiple interconnected issues surrounding a development problem like girl’s education. It takes these kinds of partnerships to develop a package of interventions which are fitted to the needs of the community and which integrate development across sectors thus creating a supportive environment for girls’ education to thrive.

description: Background Early onset fetal growth restriction secondary to placental insufficiency can lead to severe maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Pre-clinical studies and a few small randomised clinical trials have suggested that phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors may have protective effects against placental insufficiency in this context; however, robust evidence is lacking. The STRIDER Consortium conducted four randomised trials to investigate the use of a PDE-5 inhibitor, sildenafil, for the treatment of early onset fetal growth restriction. We present a protocol for the pre-planned systematic review with individual participant data meta-analysis, aggregate meta-analysis, and trial sequential analysis of these and other eligible trials. The main objective of this study will be to evaluate the effects of PDE-5 inhibitors on neonatal morbidity compared with placebo or no intervention among pregnancies with fetal growth restriction. Methods We will search the following electronic databases with no language or date restrictions: OVID MEDLINE, OVID EMBASE, the Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials (CENTRAL), and the clinical trial registers Clinicaltrials.gov and World Health Organisation International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP). We will identify randomised trials of PDE-5 inhibitors in singleton pregnancies with growth restriction. Two reviewers will independently screen all citations, full-text articles, and abstract data. Our primary outcome will be infant survival without evidence of serious adverse neonatal outcome. Secondary outcomes will include gestational age at birth and birth weight z-scores. We will assess bias using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool. We will conduct aggregate meta-analysis using fixed and random effects models, Trial Sequential Analysis, and individual participant data meta-analysis using one- and two-stage approaches. The certainty of evidence will be assessed with GRADE. Discussion This pre-defined protocol will minimise bias during analysis and interpretation of results, toward the goal of providing robust evidence regarding the use of PDE-5 inhibitors for the treatment of early onset fetal growth restriction.

description: Objective: The focus on psychopathology in general, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in particular, has been debated and critiqued recently in the context of refugee trauma. This mixed-methods study broadens the conceptualisation of refugee mental health in resettlement, and explores the relationship between the level of psychological distress (conceptualised as the rate of PTSD, depression and anxiety) and post-resettlement stressors and coping as determinants of refugee mental health. 
Method: Fifty war-affected Syrian civilians who arrived in the UK through the Vulnerable Person Resettlement Scheme (VPRS) and asylum route participated in individual interviews. The participants completed self-reported measures of PTSD, depression and anxiety, along with the Demands of Immigration Scale, and shared their post-resettlement experiences through semi-structured interviews. A range of statistical analyses are used to measure the association between psychological distress and post-resettlement stressors. Reflexive thematic analysis is applied to identify themes of post-resettlement experience and coping relevant to the main study questions.

Results: Descriptive statistics using frequencies and percentage computations show that approximately 40% (M=30.96, SD = 16.30) of the participants scored above the cut-off point of 33 on the PTSD Checklist, which indicates a provisional diagnosis of PTSD. Approximately 57% (M=11.43, SD=8.84) of the participants scored 10 or above on PHQ-9 the cut-off point for moderate symptoms of depression. Approximately 40% (M=9.12, SD=4.50) of the participants scored 10 or above on GAD-7, the cut-off point for moderate symptoms of anxiety. A significant correlation is found between post-resettlement stressors and psychological distress. The reflexive thematic analysis reveals five interconnected themes as a model to explain key aspects of refugee mental health in resettlement and confirm the quantitative findings. 

Conclusions: Post-resettlement stressors have a significant impact on refugee mental health, reinforce feelings of uprootedness, and lower adaptation prospects. The study findings highlight the need for host countries to create opportunities for agency and autonomy which allow refugees to contribute to and transform local communities. Finally, the study advocates a culturally sensitive approach to improving refugee mental health, enabling them to initiate their own paths to recovery.
title: Implementation of Farmers’ Rights in the Italian legislation

description: In 2018, Centro Internazionale Crocevia, a non-governmental organization, in collaboration with the International Planning Committee for Food Sovereignty (IPC), conducted a policy analysis on the implementation of Farmers’ Rights in the Italian legislation. The objective was to analyse the implementation status of Article 9.3 of the ITPGRFA at national and regional level in Italy. Regional, national and European laws that regulate the ways how farmers save, use, exchange and sell seeds were considered. Gaps and differences exist in this regard between European, national and regional law; they tend to follow different rationales and objectives. In order to fully implement Farmers Rights as set out in the International Treaty, the Italian national and regional laws should be harmonized, so that the entire legislative framework is supportive to the relevant provisions of the Treaty. Lessons learned include that how ‘formal’ seed systems are currently regulated addresses the requirements of commercial agriculture; the same regulatory framework cannot be simply applied to ‘informal’ seed systems supporting peasant agriculture, unless there is a clear aim to absorb it (i.e. based on modernization policies).

description: In 2013, the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), together with national agricultural research organizations of the respective countries, initiated a project aiming to fill gaps in the ICRISAT genebank collections and enhancing utilization of germplasm for food and agriculture. Core components were collection missions targeting pearl millet, sorghum and groundnut. In addition to these crops, national partners collected also other crops that are not part of ICRISAT’s mandate crops, such as cowpea, okra, sesame, Bambara groundnut, maize, etc. Trainings were offered to participating staff on collection and conservation techniques; these trainings also addressed Farmers Rights and traditional knowledge. Key outcomes include the collection of 5,057 germplasm accessions; seed samples were distributed across African, USA and European countries, including to researchers, breeders, farmers organizations, agro-dealers, processors and students. Key lessons learned include the awareness of the need for communication with and consent from local communities; building trust with local partners: and getting the necessary agreement from local authorities.

description: Since the year 2000, Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS), a farmer movement working with peasant farmers, pastoralists and breeders, has organized seed festivals on an annual basis to facilitate farmer-to-farmer seed and knowledge exchange and seed sales, along with sessions for sharing information and experiences, e.g. on seed laws. The objective is to improve the exchange and sale of seeds from farmers to farmers and to protect the farmers’ seeds systems as a way to implement Article 9 of the ITPGRFA. The organization further maintains seedbanks, through which farmers can access seed of local varieties, as well as processing units for products made from peasant seeds, such as fabric made from local (‘indigenous’) cotton varieties. KRRS further provides information to farmers and the general public on Indian laws relating to Farmers’ Rights, including seed legislation, plant variety protection, patents and regulations for genetically modified organisms (GMO).

Subjects: subject: AGROVOC: Participatory approaches

description: Since 1990, the World Agroforestry Centre, together with national research, education and training institutions as well as farmers and farmers’ organizations, has developed a decentralized approach for participatory tree domestication to improve indigenous tree species in the African Sahel region and to encourage their cultivation. Core components include priority setting exercises carried out since the early 1990’s, through which farmers identified preferred tree species, based on criteria such as nutritional, medicinal and income-generating values. Furthermore, potential ‘plus mother trees’ with the preferred characteristics were identified. Tree improvement based on these accessions is being carried out through Rural Resource Centres (RRCs), where farmers are trained on how to propagate and manage the seedlings in the nurseries; seedlings are established on community/farmers’ land, and farmers are actively involved in the evaluation. Improved material is owned by the communities and farmers can freely distribute the improved material among themselves. A value chain training component on fruit processing and related business skills is also incorporated to enhance the economic benefits from indigenous tree cultivation. Key outcomes include improved skills of farmers in tree propagation and management, conservation and sustainable use of tree genetic resources and enhanced recognition and use of indigenous knowledge.

description: Since 2007, Bioversity International, as partner of various projects supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), has been working with the National Genebank and Plant Genetic Resources Center of Uganda (NARO-PGRC) to link ex situ conservation of PGRFA with in situ conservation through community seed banks. The objective was to enhance farmers’ access to diverse, high-quality seed from farmers’ seed systems, and to strengthen policy support for pluralistic approaches to seed system development. Core activities included capacity development for farmers on seed production and marketing, participatory variety selection as well as policy review and development. Five community seed banks have been established so far, serving around 3000 farmers. Recent policies, including Uganda’s draft PGRFA Policy of 2016 and the National Seed Policy of 2019 recognize the importance of a pluralistic seed system and the need to integrate formal and informal seed systems, also emphasizing the importance of community seed banks.

description: Robustness and generalization ability of machine learning models are of utmost importance in various application domains. There is a wide interest in efficient ways to analyze those properties. One important direction is to analyze connection between those two properties. Prior theories suggest that a robust learning algorithm can produce trained models with a high generalization ability. However, we show in this work that the existing error bounds are vacuous for the Bayes optimal classifier which is the best among all measurable classifiers for a classification problem with overlapping classes. Those bounds cannot converge to the true error of this ideal classifier. This is undesirable, surprizing, and never known before. We then present a class of novel bounds, which are model-dependent and provably tighter than the existing robustness-based ones. Unlike prior ones, our bounds are guaranteed to converge to the true error of the best classifier, as the number of samples increases. We further provide an extensive experiment and find that two of our bounds are often non-vacuous for a large class of deep neural networks, pretrained from ImageNet.

description: We study the use of local consistency methods as reductions between constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), and promise version thereof, with the aim to classify these reductions in a similar way as the algebraic approach classifies gadget reductions between CSPs. This research is motivated by the requirement of more expressive reductions in the scope of promise CSPs. While gadget reductions are enough to provide all necessary hardness in the scope of (finite domain) non-promise CSP, in promise CSPs a wider class of reductions needs to be used.
 We provide a general framework of reductions, which we call consistency reductions, that covers most (if not all) reductions recently used for proving NP-hardness of promise CSPs. We prove some basic properties of these reductions, and provide the first steps towards understanding the power of consistency reductions by characterizing a fragment associated to arc-consistency in terms of polymorphisms of the template. In addition to showing hardness, consistency reductions can also be used to provide feasible algorithms by reducing to a fixed tractable (promise) CSP, for example, to solving systems of affine equations. In this direction, among other results, we describe the well-known Sherali-Adams hierarchy for CSP in terms of a consistency reduction to linear programming.

description: NordGen, established 1979, is the joint Nordic genebank for ex situ collections (seeds) of agricultural and horticultural crops. Throughout the years, individual researchers and farmers have requested and obtained seed samples from NordGen for further multiplication and cultivation. Focus has primarily been on heritage or redundant cultivars. Selection of superior plants within evaluated landraces and/or locally grown cultivars has taken place. Activities include both seed production for maintaining expertise and methodology in the field, as well as growing (niche) products for consumers (flour, flakes, whole or crushed grain). The networks provide their own need of seed. Seed is shared within the networks, as existing legislation restricts putting seed on the market.

description: The Commission of the National Programme for the Conservation and Use of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (PGRFA) was created in 2017. The aim of the Commission is to ensure coordination of actions of the different national administrations responsible for the conservation and sustainable use of PGRFA. Among its members are representatives of the main professional agricultural organizations and farmers’ associations, which favors the participation of farmers in decision-making on national aspects relating to access, management, conservation and sustainable use of PGRFA in Spain.

description: The national agricultural research organization (Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIAP) together with universities and association representing farmers and indigenous peoples established the Centers for Bio-knowledge and Agricultural Development (CBDAs). The CBDAs are aimed at:  investigating the agrobiodiversity richness in the area in a participatory manner;  contributing to the management and conservation of native seeds and propagating materials;  multiplying seeds of diverse origin (including ‘formal’ and peasant seed) to contribute to food security and climate-change adaptation; and  capacity and awareness development for farmers and society in general on conservation, management and sustainable use of agrobiodiversity. Between 2003 and 2016, five CBDAs were established, providing a physical space in which activities can take place. Key results include suitable varieties of potatoes, corn, beans, cacao, coffee, peanuts, and cassava in their agroecological conditions; seed production of native species and varieties, and re-introduction of these native crops to farmers’ fields. The main lesson learned is that the CBDA must have a management plan that allows sustainability; legal commitment of the State to finance CBDA’ activities is also important, as is the case of Ecuador, which enforces the Law for Agrobiodiversity, Seeds and Promotion of Sustainable Agriculture.
Evidence, Inference and Human Evolution: Essays in the Philosophy of Cognitive Archaeology
Creators: name: Pain, Ross

description: The promise of cognitive archaeology is considerable: the discipline can potentially outline a chronology of human cognitive evolution, and offer insights into the dynamics involved. However, the field faces two major methodological hurdles. First, it is a historical science; one that requires running inferences from the archaeological record to the cognitive capacities of our hominin ancestors. Second, it requires synthesising work from a disparate range of disciplines, including archaeology, cognitive science, and evolutionary biology. The overall goal of this thesis is to demonstrate how philosophers of biology can help meet these challenges using the philosophical tools of analysis and synthesis. Chapters 1-3 analyse various inferential strategies employed by cognitive archaeologists, and identify problems for those strategies. These problems relate to theoretical diversity, cultural variation, and the explanation of historical phenomena with multiple causal inputs. Chapters 1-3 also propose solutions to these problems. Together, they contribute to the growing literature aimed at developing a reliable inferential framework for cognitive archaeology. Chapters 4-6 synthesise work from archaeology, cognitive science and evolutionary biology in order to produce first-order claims about the evolution of particular cognitive capacities. These capacities include technical cognition, language, and theory of mind. Chapters 4-6 align with a growing trend amongst philosophers of biology for unifying theoretical work across disciplinary boundaries. Producing a robust science of human evolution is a daunting challenge. In this thesis, I aim to highlight the role both cognitive archaeology and philosophy of biology can play in addressing this challenge. I demonstrate that interdisciplinary work is essential to understanding our evolutionary origins.

description: Background To drive translational medicine, modern day biobanks need to integrate with other sources of data (clinical, genomics) to support novel data-intensive research. Currently, vast amounts of research and clinical data remain in silos, held and managed by individual researchers, operating under different standards and governance structures; a framework that impedes sharing and effective use of data. In this article, we describe the journey of British Columbia’s Gynecological Cancer Research Program (OVCARE) in moving a traditional tumour biobank, outcomes unit, and a collection of data silos, into an integrated data commons to support data standardization and resource sharing under collaborative governance, as a means of providing the gynecologic cancer research community in British Columbia access to tissue samples and associated clinical and molecular data from thousands of patients. Results Through several engagements with stakeholders from various research institutions within our research community, we identified priorities and assessed infrastructure needs required to optimize and support data collections, storage and sharing, under three main research domains: (1) biospecimen collections, (2) molecular and genomics data, and (3) clinical data. We further built a governance model and a resource portal to implement protocols and standard operating procedures for seamless collections, management and governance of interoperable data, making genomic, and clinical data available to the broader research community. Conclusions Proper infrastructures for data collection, sharing and governance is a translational research imperative. We have consolidated our data holdings into a data commons, along with standardized operating procedures to meet research and ethics requirements of the gynecologic cancer community in British Columbia. The developed infrastructure brings together, diverse data, computing frameworks, as well as tools and applications for managing, analyzing, and sharing data. Our data commons bridges data access gaps and barriers to precision medicine and approaches for diagnostics, treatment and prevention of gynecological cancers, by providing access to large datasets required for data-intensive science.

description: Facilitating access to germplasm under the Multilateral System (MLS) of the International Treaty could be considered as a contribution to benefit-sharing. The Nordic Genetic Resource Centre (NordGen) is the genebank maintaining germplasm of Nordic origin as well as material relevant for the Nordic region. The seed material stored at NordGen is available upon request for plant breeders, plant researchers, museums and other bona fide users. Germplasm managed by Nordgen is available in small quantities for research, breeding, conservation or similar purposes. While NordGen mainly serves the scientific community; it also honours reasonable requests from individuals, such as farmers and gardeners, provided that the requester has a serious interest in seed saving and maintaining old or rare varieties. To facilitate access for these individuals, NordGen has developed a simplified material transfer agreement, called ‘Hobby Material Transfer Agreement’; a small administrative fee was introduced to manage the rising number of requests.
