A Case Of Cutaneous Larva Migrans Acquired From Soiled Toilet Floors In Urban Kuala Lumpur, Noorzurani Robson Associate Prof. Dr., S Othman

Despite being a common skin dermatosis in the tropics, physicians in the tropics may miss the diagnosis of cutaneous larva migrans for other pruritic skin manifestation. This is especially in those who live in urban housing with no history of travel. Cutaneous larva migrans, an intensely pruritic skin pathology is mainly contracted by people with history of beach holiday or contact with moist soft sand which had been contaminated with dog or cat faeces. This article reports a patient who presented with intensely itchy papular spots over the dorsum of his foot after walking barefooted in an urban toilet soiled …
Gene Alterations By Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma Agonists In Human Colorectal Cancer Cells, Maria Cekanova, J Yuan, X Li, K B. Kim, Seung J. Baek
Gene Alterations By Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma Agonists In Human Colorectal Cancer Cells, Maria Cekanova, J Yuan, X Li, K B. Kim, Seung J. Baek

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear transcription factor that controls the genes involved in metabolism and carcinogenesis. In the present study, we examined the alteration of gene expression in HCT-116 human colorectal cancer cells by PPARgamma agonists: MCC-555 (5 microM), rosiglitazone (5 microM), and 15-deoxy-Delta12,14-prostaglandin J2 (1 microM). The long-oligo microarray data revealed a list of target genes commonly induced (307 genes) and repressed (32 genes) by tested PPARgamma agonists. These genes were analyzed by Onto-Express software and KEGG pathway analysis and revealed that PPARgamma agonists are involved in cell proliferation, focal adhesion, and several signaling pathways. …

Paradigm Shift: Why The Need?, Dennis M. Richards
Dennis M Richards
The projected costs of trends expected to occur in Australian society over the next 40 years, particularly demographic changes, have the potential to threaten the fiscal sustainability of Australian Government finances. These costs particularly relate to the financing of health care. The Strategic Plan of the Chiropractors’ Association of Australian (National) Ltd. includes two strategies that seek to address this situation. This paper details these trends and threats, why new models of health care will be required, and why a paradigm shift in thinking in health care may be needed.

The projected costs of trends expected to occur in Australian society over the next 40 years, particularly demographic changes, have the potential to threaten the fiscal sustainability of Australian Government finances. These costs particularly relate to the financing of health care, and the Government has called for new models of care to address this problem. This paper presents and discusses some historical models or paradigms of health care that may assist in understanding the current need for change and a possible solution.

In 2006 the Chiropractors’ Association of Australia engaged a professional facilitator to develop and run a process by which a Strategic Plan could be developed to guide the activities of the Board of Directors of the Association during the period 2006-2009. This paper documents this process and lists the outcomes.

Agents Of Change: The Caa Consensus Process., Dennis M. Richards

In 1997 the Chiropractors’ Association of Australia engaged a professional facilitator to develop and run a series of consensus conferences around the country. The purpose of these was to engage CAA members in set, organised procedures that ultimately produced Core Values of chiropractic, Core Purposes of the CAA and a Vision Statement to guide the organisation in its future strategic planning and activities. This paper documents those consensus activities, lists the outcomes and notes proposed efforts to review them.
