Arab Women: A Profile Of Diversity And Change, Nahid Toubia, Amira Bahyeldin, Nadia Hijab, Heba Abdel Latif
Poverty, Gender, and Youth
The status of Arab women is the subject of much speculation, generalization, and stereotyping by those inside and outside the region. The paucity of objective, accessible information makes Arab women one of the least understood social groups. The aim of this book is to help correct misconceptions about Arab women by introducing systematic information for 21 Arab countries. Widely published international statistical data, mostly from the United Nations and the World Bank, were used for the comparisons. These datasets are compiled from country reports, national surveys, and aggregated smaller studies. They are by no means comprehensive or devoid of inaccuracies, …

In view of our observation that anti-immunoglobulin antibody conjugated to high-molecular-weight dextran stimulates high levels of B-cell activation (Brunswick et al. J. Immunol . 1989, 143, 1239), we coupled T cell-dependent antigens to dextran. When mice were immunized, in the absence of adjuvant, with a BSA-dextran conjugate (BSA-dex), a persistent, high-titre anti-BSA IgG1 response was induced. Titres were dose-dependent and seen with as little as 10 I~g of conjugated protein. Anti-BSA titres were detected as early as day 7, usually peaked at about day 14 and persisted for at least 4 weeks. Anti-hapten antibodies were also elicited in mice that …

Reproductive Health
In May 1994, the Population Council, in conjunction with the Pacific Institute for Women's Health and the International Women's Health Coalition, hosted a meeting for women's health advocates from around the world to discuss the development of microbicides. This process was the first step in building greater understanding and mutual respect among women's health advocates and Population Council staff and scientists with regard to the technology of microbicides. Participants hoped that the recommendations resulting from this initiative would have a positive influence not only on the development of microbicides, but on all reproductive health technologies. This report aims to reproduce …
Reproductive Health Approach To Family Planning, Population Council
Reproductive Health Approach To Family Planning, Population Council
Reproductive Health
This report collects presentations from a panel held on Professional Development Day at the USAID Cooperating Agencies meeting in November 1994. The panel was designed to review key reproductive health elements that relate to family planning, including: reproductive tract and sexually transmitted infections, including AIDS; the prevention and treatment of unsafe abortion; pregnancy, labor, and delivery care; and postpartum care. While there is increasing international consensus that family planning should be broadened to include reproductive health care, it is far from clear as to how this should be done, and which elements should be incorporated. This panel explored some of …

L'industrie du vêtement, composante principale du secteur de I'habillement, demeure très importante en termes d'emplois au Québec en dépit d'importantes pertes d'effectifs depuis la fin des années 80. Les indicateurs de lésions les plus récents montrent que depuis 1989, le taux d'incidence a diminué mais que l'indice de gravité des lésions demeure supérieur aux indicateurs pour l'ensemble des secteurs manufacturant des biens durables. L'industrie du vêtement est en outre fortement touchée par la crise économique et par les modifications du marché associées à la concurrence étrangère et aux nouveaux accords de libre-échange et tarifaires. La main-d'œuvre y est dans une …

Rapports de recherche scientifique
Les milieux de travail et les intervenants en santé et sécurité du travail ont maintes fois exprimé le besoin d'outils pour solutionner le problème du bruit émis par les appareils fonctionnant à l'air comprimé. Leurs difficultés proviennent de l'absence de spécifications uniformisées leur permettant de faire un choix judicieux en matière de silencieux, de soufflettes et de pistolets. Il n'existait pas de méthodologie éprouvée pour analyser les performances acoustiques mécaniques de ces équipements.

Securing Health Or Just Health Care? The Effect Of The Health Care System On The Health Of America, Lawrence O. Gostin
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
The author first analyzes why the prevention of illness and promotion of health provide the leading justification for the government to act for the welfare of the population. His analysis focuses principally on the foundational importance of health for human happiness, the exercise of rights and privileges, and the formation of family and social relationships. He explains why health care, although critically important; is not the only, nor even the most important, determinant of health. Most morbidity and mortality in the United States is attributable to environmental conditions, pathogens, and human behavior, which are all more responsive to population-based interventions …

Cooperative Binding Of Ets-1 And Core Binding Factor To Dna., David Wotton, Jacques Ghysdael, Shuwen Wang, Nancy A. Speck, Michael J. Owen
Dartmouth Scholarship
Two phorbol ester-inducible elements (beta E2 and beta E3) within the human T-cell receptor beta gene enhancer each contain consensus binding sites for the Ets and core binding factor (CBF) transcription factor families. Recombinant Ets-1 and purified CBF bound individually to beta E2 and beta E3, in which the Ets and core sites are directly adjacent. In this report, we show that CBF and Ets-1 bind together to beta E2 and beta E3 and that Ets-1-CBF-DNA complexes are favored over the binding of either protein alone to beta E2. Formation of Ets-1-CBF-DNA complexes increased the affinity of Ets-1-DNA interactions and …
