The economic burden, patients' well-being, and social determinants related to diabetes in South Africa by Hellebo, Assegid

“…The specific objectives are: firstly, to use population life table modelling to estimate the impact of type 2 diabetes (T2D) on the South African population, particularly in terms of productivity-adjusted life of years (PALYs) metric; secondly, to review and synthesise information regarding the costs and cost-effectiveness of managing T2D in SSA to enhance awareness, optimise resource allocation, and support evidence-based decision-making; thirdly, to investigate the role of social determinants of health (SDoH) in diabetes self-care management practices, emphasising the importance of maintaining optimal glycemic control; and lastly, to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and associated factors among people with diabetes in South Africa; lastly, to develop locally relevant utility score valuations for more accurate economic evaluations and healthcare decision-making in South Africa. …”

Determining the solubility of haematin and haem-drug complexes at relevant pH in aqueous medium via spectrophotometric titration by Soogary, Ghannish

“…In an alternative approach, spectrophotometric titrations of haematin with perchloric acid were conducted to directly investigate ferrihaem solubility at a more relevant pH range. The optimal incubation time to ensure sample equilibration was determined to be 24 hours. …”

The Rohingya: ethnic nationalism, domestic diversionary targets, and Burmese post-colonial nation building by Abd-El-Barr, Ibrahim

“…By revisiting the main events/national framework which have amounted to the Rohingya's exclusion from Burmese nation-building as well as tracing a historical trajectory of the episodes of violence/forced displacement of the Rohingya against the backdrop of the surrounding political and economic contexts, it is argued that the Rohingya have been targeted as domestic diversionary targets for the Burmese military regime's constant failures in managing the state's economic and financial sectors, defeats in electoral politics, and compromises to its presumed sources of legitimacy and public acceptance. Utilizing the instrumentalist diversionary theory of war, or the scapegoat hypothesis, it is demonstrated that violence against the Rohingya not only falls under a systematic and recurring process of exclusion from post-colonial nation-building but also the development of the Burmese state to resemble a garrison state has facilitated the targeting of the Rohingya as a domestic/territorial diversionary target or option.…”
