India’s COVID-19 tally was almost 8 million on September 26, 2020, while the global cases marched towards 42 million. People globally have been living under some sort of COVID-19-driven lockdown, stay at home, shelter-in-place, or some similar government-mandated measures. Living in a lockdown is NOT a natural phenomenon for most humans. How are people trying to manage themselves during the restrictions imposed on them? What are the mechanisms people are resorting to, to cope with this stress? Is their heritage, cultural or national differences that are allowing one segment to react better tha

ABSTRACTThis study discusses and explains the identity building of ethnic minority in American multicultural society. Identity is not given directly as the immigrants arrived in the States, but they had to get through hurdles and adjustment. Hence the comers need to have a negotiation strategy in getting into the mainstream. The analysis is done by using the interdisciplinary approaches to view on the historical, cultural, and sociological elements of the study.

In this article Catherine Diamond examines the flows of transcultural hybridity occurring in dance between Spanish flamencos, Japanese exponents of flamenco, and Indian dancers interacting with flamenco within their classical dance forms. Japan and India represent two distinct Asian reactions to the phenomenon of global flamenco: the Japanese have adopted it wholesale and compete with the Spanish on their own ground; the Indians claim that as the Roma (gypsy) people originated in India, the country is also the home of flamenco.

IntroductionDisabling chronic low back pain (CLBP) is associated with negative beliefs and behaviours, which are influenced by culture, religion and interactions with healthcare practitioners (HCPs). In the UK, HCPs encounter people from different cultures and ethnic backgrounds, with South Asian Indians (including Punjabis) forming the largest ethnic minority group. Better understanding of the beliefs and experiences of ethnic minorities with CLBP might inform effective management.ObjectivesTo explore the CLBP beliefs and experiences of English-speaking Punjabi and white British people living

Racial disparities in infant mortality have persisted, despite the overall decline in the United States’ overall infant mortality rate (IMR). The overall IMR of the entire United States (5.58 per 1000 live births) population masks significant disparities by race and ethnicity: the non-Hispanic Black population experienced an IMR of 10.8 followed by people from Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander populations at 9.4 and American Indians at 8.2. The non-Hispanic White and Asian populations in the United States have the lowest IMR at 4.6 and 3.6, respectively, as of 2018. A variety of factor

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the biggest driver of mortality in people with diabetes. Cardiovascular disease and diabetes share the same risk factors, the so-called “common soil” hypothesis. Asians and more specifically Indians are predisposed to cardiovascular disease, that too at an earlier age. The cost of management of cardiovascular disease in India is prohibitive. Thus, screening for asymptomatic coronary artery disease in people with type 2 diabetes and referring them for further evaluation will go a long way in preventing cardiovascular mortality. 560 consenting previously diagno

Among the artifacts of the Pazyryk culture (VI–III centuries BC), battle shields attract attention. As a rule, they come from rich burial mounds. Items have the shape of an elongated rectangle or square, sometimes with a rounded top. There is a belt loop in the center. Shields are ornamented with zigzags, rhombuses, braids-like ornaments, crosses, triangles. Items can be divided into two groups. The first group consists of items 35,5–44 cm long and 24,5–35 cm wide, while second group consists of 50–69 cm long and 42–54 cm wide shields. Small shields predominate.

While the general public in Australia does not engage in open conflict with international students over such grievances, they will instead discuss these anonymously online and with each other.

ABSTRACTUpon the invasion of the host by microorganisms, innate immunity is triggered through pathogen recognition by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the best-studied class of PRRs, and they recognize specific pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) from various microorganisms. A large number of studies have shown that genetic variation in TLRs may influence susceptibility to infections. We assessed the genetic variation ofTLR2, which encodes one of the most important TLRs, in various populations around the globe and correlated it with changes in the

Abstract The Komagata Maru incident of 1914 occurred at a time when intra-Asian trade was flourishing, but it coincided with a period of great migration. Many Indians (South Asians), and also Chinese and Japanese, moved around the Indo-Pacific, a migration that stirred anti-Asian feeling among white peoples. It also occurred in a transitional period for the British Empire. But Britain still held a dominant position in the Indo-Pacific, not only because it benefited from intra-Asian trade, but also because it could make use of Indians as a military force and rely on a measure of assistance from
