The Consciousness In Mosquitoes, Richa ., D. K. Chaturvedi, Soam Prakash

Soam Prakash

Mosquitoes are significant insect responsible for variety of fatal diseases spreading worldwide. Every strategy to control mosquito population resulted trivial as mosquito borne diseases are still causing several million deaths annually. The present study is an attempt to investigate endogenous electric and magnetic energy emission of mosquito larvae with an aim to understand the role of energy field in evolution of their fundamental biology. It will enable us to understand how electric and magnetic energy involved in their development and survival over the years. These experiments include larval population of Culex quinquefasciatus, Anopheles stephensi, and Aedes aegypti. We have …

Rising Assertiveness Versus Peaceful Development: Making Sense Of China’S Ambivalent International Behavior, Lukas K. Danner Nov 2016

Rising Assertiveness Versus Peaceful Development: Making Sense Of China’S Ambivalent International Behavior, Lukas K. Danner

Dr. Lukas K. Danner

In the past few years, especially after the 2008 global financial crisis, China has become more assertive, not just in its military posture but also in its diplomatic affairs and economic interactions. Despite this rising assertiveness, China’s grand strategy officially remains that of ‘Peaceful Development.’ In consequence, scholars have disagreed about the trajectory of China’s grand strategy in light of its often ambivalent behavior. To explain this ambivalence, this article will take a closer empirical look at  two important developments regarding China’s international affairs: The softening on China’s preoccupation with territorial integrity and sovereignty has been exhibited in taking sides …


Wrongful Birth Litigation, Clinical Practice Guidelines On Prenatal Screening, And Implications For Physicians, Patients And Disabled Canadians, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Mark Pioro, Jeff Nisker Oct 2016

Wrongful Birth Litigation, Clinical Practice Guidelines On Prenatal Screening, And Implications For Physicians, Patients And Disabled Canadians, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Mark Pioro, Jeff Nisker

Roxanne Mykitiuk

Canadian clinicians must be aware of new standards of care resulting from national clinical practice guidelines, both to ensure best practice and to avoid malpractice litigation. Clinical practice guidelines can reduce successful malpractice actions through physician education and they may be used in court as evidence that the standard of care was met. The 2007 clinical practice guidelines on prenatal screening for fetal aneuploidy have expanded the potential for successful wrongful birth litigation and have set a new standard for family physicians, obstetricians, laboratory physicians, radiologists, geneticists, midwives, registered nurses, genetic counselors and ultrasound technicians. The clinical practice guidelines on …


Gender Equity In Clinical Trials In Canada: Aspiration Or Achievement?, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Patricia Peppin Oct 2016

Gender Equity In Clinical Trials In Canada: Aspiration Or Achievement?, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Patricia Peppin

Roxanne Mykitiuk

Achieving gender equity in clinical trials requires that women be included in sufficient numbers to carry out analysis, that sub-sample analyses be performed, and that results be communicated in such a way as to expand medical knowledge, inform policy decisions, and educate patients. In this article, we examine the extent to which Canada promotes gender equity through its laws and guidelines, viewed within the context of its drug safety system and its research ethics board structure. We analyze the structuring of information by the pharmaceutical industry and consider the impact of its promotional activities on the state of gender knowledge …


The Potential For Misusing “Genetic Predisposition” In Canadian Courts And Tribunals, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Mark Pioro, Lilith Finkler, Jeff Nisker Oct 2016

The Potential For Misusing “Genetic Predisposition” In Canadian Courts And Tribunals, Roxanne Mykitiuk, Mark Pioro, Lilith Finkler, Jeff Nisker

Roxanne Mykitiuk

The fulfilment of promises made 25 years ago to link clinical conditions with gene sequences has allowed patients and families to better understand hereditary conditions and make choices regarding prevention, early detection and treatment. There have also been warnings issued over this period regarding other purposes for which genetic information may be used, such as discrimination against people with a genetic predisposition for the purposes of employment or insurance. There has also been concern that the “geneticization” of health might divert focus to individual, rather than social, determinants of health and away from the communal responsibility for health. These factors …
