Background: Up to 30% of the human population is asymptomatically colonized with nasal Staphylococcus aureus. Study was done to determine the prevalence and risk factors for MRSA colonization as nasal carrier in a population of outpatients with diabetes.Methods: The study enrolled patients with diabetes from whom nasal swabs were obtained and were analyzed for presence of MRSA.Results: Out of the 402 patients evaluated, 254 (63.18%) were colonized with S. aureus and 164 (64.56%) of them were MRSA.Conclusions: Diabetes have more propensity for MRSA colonization than non-diabetic patients.

Abstract:
After Hurricane Katrina, 50 patients were evacuated to Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, with limited medical records. The infection control department ordered contact precautions for 16 Patients. Surveillance cultures performed on admission identified colonization with multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in 9 patients (18%). Presence of a wound was the strongest predictor for MDR colonization. More data are needed to reliably predict MDR bacterial colonization.

BACKGROUND: Methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA) acquired in the community, otherwise known as community-acquired MRSA, has emerged rapidly in recent years.

The aim of this study is to analyze patient movement patterns between hospital departments to derive the underlying intra-hospital movement network, and to assess if movement patterns differ between patients at high or low risk of colonization. For that purpose, we analyzed patient electronic medical record data from five hospitals to extract information on risk stratification and patient intra-hospital movements. Movement patterns were visualized as networks, and network centrality measures were calculated. Next, using an agent-based model where agents represent patients and intra-hospital pa

Anglophone women, working in a new capacity as federal civil servants, exercised a significant influence on Canadian immigration policy in the interwar years. This dissertation focuses on the women's division of the Canadian Department of Immigration and Colonization, an agency charged with recruiting British women for domestic service from 1919 to 1938. The division was a product of the women's wing of the social reform movement and prevailing theories of gender difference and anglo-superiority.

Abstract:
Hand infections can be delineated by type and location of infection, by a polymicrobial vs single microbial colonization, and by the type of organism. They are most often caused by superficial injury or trauma. Early identification and timely treatment can significantly improve the morbidity associated with hand infections. In addition to determining the source and mechanism of infection, it is important to identify tetanus immunization status, prior injury to the affected area, immune status, occupation, and hand dominance.

Abstract:
Since 2006, the Department of Native Hawaiian Health at the John A. Burns School of Medicine has worked to develop and implement an innovative, imaginative, and comprehensive cultural competency curriculum for our medical students. Recognizing that understanding culture, society and history is necessary to train future physicians who will work to improve the health of Native Hawaiians and all underserved communities in Hawai'i, our curriculum focuses on self-awareness, traditional healing techniques, effective communication and the social and cultural determinants of health. We expect our students to understand the roots of disparities in health and health care, including cultural historical trauma and colonization. Close consultation with community and cultural experts working with a multidisciplinary teaching team were key to the development of this curriculum, which utilizes didactics, small groups, workshops, simulated patients, service learning, community classrooms and cultural immersion weekends to teach the Native Hawaiian holistic view of wellness to our medical students.

Abstract:
In 2009, the U.S. Department of Defense announced its intention to drastically increase their military presence on the island of Guam. Although this “military buildup” was predicted to cause severe damage to the island in environmental, social and economic terms, discourse from island leaders and media reports focused primarily on this increase as being the key to future “sustainability” for the island. This chapter argues that the notion of the military build-up as being “sustainable” was tied to historical militarization and colonization of the indigenous Chamorro people of the western Pacific over centuries, during which the United States has been elevated to the stature of a liberator and socioeconomic savior. This chapter surveys the scholarly literature on the effects of U.S. military "Draft Environmental Impact Statements" on indigenous populations, with particular regard to effects on the indigenous Chamorro people. This chapter also discusses the ways in which demilitarization and decolonization activists from local indigenous Chamorro groups such as Nasion Chamoru used the public comment period for the U.S. military’s plans in order to disrupt the fantasy of the build-up’s sustainability and help the local community develop a more critical position in relation to the military's own stated environmental impacts.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract</em>.—In support of the Magnuson–Stevens Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act of 2006, which tasked regional fisheries management councils with ending overfishing of numerous marine finfish species, the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council established 8 deepwater (90–150 m [300–500 ft]) type II marine protected areas (MPAs) along the coastline of the southeastern United States. At the request of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), one of these MPAs was established on an undeveloped sand-bottom area previously permitted by SCDNR for artificial reef development. After monitoring the production potential of unfished artificial reefs for several years on shallower experimental reef sites, SCDNR staff proposed that a deeper location had the potential to become a highly productive spawning site, particularly for deepwater grouper species. Development of this permitted site began in 2014 when two 79-m (260 ft) barges with nearly 30 m (100 ft) of added profile were deployed. Subsequent monitoring of the site through remotely operated underwater vehicle video revealed colonization by several target species, including Warsaw Grouper <em>Hyporthodus nigritus</em>, Snowy Grouper <em>H. niveatus</em>, and Misty Grouper <em>H. mystacinus</em>. Due in part to the success of this deepwater MPA, the SCDNR was also granted spawning special management zone designation for its two previously established, undisclosed experimental artificial reef sites in federal waters off South Carolina in 2017.

Abstract:
The book’s prologue briefly sketches the colonization of Indigenous land that led to Chicago’s founding and rapid urbanization, and then focuses on two important phenomena within that larger story: the origins of policing in the city and the Great Migration of Black Americans that produced the city’s famed “Black Metropolis.” It shows how the Chicago Police Department’s origins lay not in some vague interest in public safety, but rather in controlling labor radicalism and the behavior of European immigrants. It also documents how the promise of Chicago for migrating Black Southerners was often quite different than the reality that they found within the city.
