Abstract:

Sociology<br>Ph.D.<br>Throughout the twentieth century, many behaviors previously considered criminal or immoral were instead defined as medical problems. This process is often referred to as the medicalization of deviance. Like many other behaviors once considered deviant, drug and alcohol abuse has been medicalizing, in a process that accelerated during the latter half of the twentieth century. Despite this movement along the path toward medicalization, drug use, and alcohol use to a lesser extent, are still also sanctioned and managed by the criminal justice system, resulting in a medical-l

Abstract:

Background: Drugs are one of the cornerstones in the management of many diseases. In general, drugs are used for diagnosis, prevention, mitigation of symptoms, and, sometimes, to cure disease. However, drug treatment in elderly people, especially those with dementia and cognitive impairments, may involve significant risk of adverse drug events. The aim of this thesis was to identify the extent of potentially inappropriate drug treatment among people with dementia and cognitive impairment and to assess the occurrence and character of drug-related problems that lead to acute hospital admissions

Abstract:

Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. People living with HIV are particularly susceptible to TB infection, and treatment of HIV-TB co-infection is challenging for multiple reasons, including potential drug-interactions. Drug-resistant TB is difficult to treat and is associated with high treatment failure rates, mainly because the antimycobacterial drugs currently available are ineffective against drug-resistant TB. Bedaquiline is a new antimycobacterial drug which has shown great promise through its excellent efficacy for treating drug-resistant TB. Being a

Magister Pharmaceuticae - MPharm<br>South Africa faces a huge Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) burden with more than 400,000 children currently on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Studies on lipid and haematological profile changes in paediatrics are of particular interest since these children are exposed to ART in the course of a developmentally significant period and will possibly have longer collective exposure to ART. As such, monitoring for adverse effects, including lipid and haematological abnormalities, is essential for curtailing morbidity and mortality rates of children on ART. There

However, gemcitabine treatment only proves effective in 23.8% of patients. Nano-structures (< 120 nm) are capable of entering the highly permeable blood capillaries which supply the rapidly growing tumours. Once inside the capillaries they accumulate and are retained in the tumour as a result of the poor lymphatic drainage. This allows for a deeper tissue penetration which is otherwise difficult to achieve. Hybrid nanoparticles with an iron oxide core covered b

Abstract:

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women worldwide. Approximately two-thirds of breast cancers are oestrogen receptor positive (ER+), which are activated via oestrogen dependent and independent mechanisms. The pathogenic role of oestrogen in breast cancer is well established, thus, targeting ER becomes an essential target in breast cancer anti-hormonal therapy. Tamoxifen is the most important anti-hormonal therapeutic agent which has been used as the gold standard in the treatment of ER+ breast cancer patients. Tamoxifen acts by competing with oestrogen for binding to the ER an

Abstract:

Tendon plays an important role in regulating body locomotion and providing additional stability to the body. However, tendon is susceptible to injuries and the healing process could be devastating along with the several issues, namely adhesion formations, slow healing and failure at fixation sites, which have deferred the success of proper tendon healing via tendon tissue engineering. This dissertation thus aims to create a sustained dual-drug therapy to address these issues. For adhesion formation, naproxen sodium (NPS) has been shown to be able to avoid this symptom through inhibiting inflam

Abstract:

Drug eluting beads (DEB) are employed in the treatment of solid hypervascularised malignant tumours by a method called trans-arterial chemoembolisation (TACE). When the microcirculation to a tumour is blocked, oxygen levels decrease to critically low levels causing the tumour to become hypoxic. Hypoxic tumours are known to be chemoresistant and send out growth factor signals leading to angiogenesis and metastasis of tumour cells to other parts of the body. Commercially available DEB are unable to respond to the conditions of hypoxia and will continue to release drug at a constant rate via ioni

Demand-withdraw interaction is a pattern of communication in which one person demands change from another who withdraws. In the treatment domain, evidence of parallel demand-withdraw processes comes from a study of couple therapy for alcoholic men, where wife-demand/husband-withdraw interaction predicted poor response to a high-demand intervention (Shoham et al., 1998). The current study extends this parallelprocess idea to family therapy for substance-using adolescents by examining whether adolescents entrenched in parent-demand/adolescent-withdraw interaction are less likely to engage in tre

As a starting point, the facile synthesis method of the GQDs was established. Subsequently, the targeting ligand,folic acid (FA), was conjugated to GQDs. Next, a FDA approved chemotherapeutic drug, Doxorubicin (DOX), was loaded to form the GQDs-FA-DOX nano-conjugation as the DDS. Moreover, the u

Hypoxia is a hallmark of solid tumours and is associated with increased malignancy and mortality in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
