Abstract:
Scabies is an important predisposing factor for impetigo but its role in more serious skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) is not well understood. Information is limited on incidence of SSTIs in the presence of endemic scabies. We conducted a prospective study of hospital admissions for SSTIs in the Northern Division of Fiji (population: 131,914). Prospective surveillance for admissions with impetigo, abscess, cellulitis, wound infection, pyomyositis, necrotizing fasciitis, infected scabies, and crusted scabies was conducted at the Division’s referral hospital between 2018 to 2019. Information was collected on demographic characteristics, clinical features, microbiology, treatment and outcomes. Over the study period, 788 SSTI admissions were recorded corresponding to a population incidence 647 per 100,000 person-years (95%CI 571–660). Incidence was highest at the extremes of age with peak incidence in children aged <5 years (908 per 100,000) and those aged ≥65 years (1127 per 100,000). Incidence was 1.7 times higher among the Indigenous Fijian population (753 per 100,000) compared to other ethnicities (442 per 100,000). Overall case fatality rate was 3.3%, and 10.8% for those aged ≥65 years. Scabies was diagnosed concurrently in 7.6% of all patients and in 24.6% of admitted children <5 years. There is a very high burden of hospital admissions for SSTIs in Fiji compared to high-income settings especially among the youngest, oldest and indigenous population which is concordant with scabies and impetigo distribution in this population. Our findings highlight the need for strategies to reduce the burden of SSTIs in Fiji and similar settings.

Abstract:
Archaean felsic metavolcanic rocks in the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield may be divided into three major groups on the basis of trace-element abundances and ratios. (1) FI felsic metavolcanic rocks are dacites and rhyodacites characterized by steep REE patterns with weakly negative to moderately positive Eu anomalies, high Zr/Y, low abundances of high-field-strength elements (e.g., HREE, Y, Zr, Hf), and high abundances of Sr. Examples occur in the Bowman Subgroup and Skead Group in the Abitibi Belt, in the Kakagi Lake, Lake of the Woods, Shoal Lake, and Sturgeon Lake areas of the Wabigoon Belt, and in the Confederation Lake area of the Uchi Belt. None of these horizons, as known, hosts base-metal sulphide deposits. (2) FII felsic metavolcanic rocks are rhyodacites and rhyolites characterized by gently sloping REE patterns with variable Eu anomalies, moderate Zr/Y, and intermediate abundances of HFS elements and Sr. Examples occur in the Misema Subgroup of the Abitibi Belt, in the Wabigoon Lake and Sturgeon Lake areas of the Wabigoon Belt, and in the Confederation Lake area of the Uchi Belt. Of these horizons, only those in the Sturgeon Lake area host base-metal sulphide deposits, and they exhibit the most pronounced negative Eu anomalies of this group. (3) FIII felsic metavolcanic rocks are rhyolites and high-silica rhyolites characterized by relatively flat REE patterns, which may be subdivided into two types. FIIIa felsic metavolcanic rocks exhibit variable negative Eu anomalies, low Zr/Y, and intermediate abundances of HFS elements and Sr. Examples occur in the Noranda mining district of the Abitibi Belt. FIIIb felsic metavolcanic rocks exhibit pronounced negative Eu anomalies, low Zr/Y, high abundances of HFS elements, and low abundances of Sr. Examples occur in the Kamiskotia, Kidd Creek, Matagami, and Noranda mining districts, the Garrison Subgroup in the Abitibi Belt, and at the South Bay mine in the Confederation Lake area of the Uchi Belt. All of these FIII horizons, with the exception of Garrison, host important base-metal sulphide deposits.These geochemical variations are interpreted to reflect differences in the petrogenesis of the felsic magmas, specifically, their formation or degree of modification in high-level magma chambers, which also influenced the formation of massive base-metal sulphide deposits. Most massive base-metal sulphide deposits in the Superior Province are underlain by subvolcanic magma chambers, which have been interpreted to have supplied heat to drive the ore-forming hydrothermal systems. FIII and some FII felsic volcanic rocks are interpreted to have been derived from these high-level magma chambers, accounting for their distinctive geochemical signatures and their association with massive base-metal sulphide mineralization. In contrast, FI felsic volcanic rocks are interpreted to have been derived from a deeper source and are considered to have escaped significant high-level modification, accounting for their distinctive geochemical signatures and the lack of associated base-metal sulphide mineralization. With certain limitations, the geochemistry of felsic metavolcanic rocks therefore may be used as a guide to identify prospective horizons for massive base-metal sulphide exploration in the Superior Province.

Abstract:
Little is known about the pathogenesis of cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) in the neonate. Although thrombophilia has been described as increasing the risk of CSVT in adults, it remains controversial in pediatric patients, and prospective case–control studies regarding neonatal CSVT are lacking. From 2008 to 2017, all 26 consecutive newborn infants ≥35 weeks of gestation diagnosed with neonatal CSVT, and their mothers, were tested for factor V Leiden (FV) G1691A, FII G20210A, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T (MTHFR C677T) mutations. Eighty-five mother–infant pairs were recruited as controls. All infants except 1 with CSVT were suspected due to clinical symptoms, mainly seizures (22/25). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 24/26 infants. Heterozygous FV G1691A, FII G20210A, and homozygous MTHFR C677T mutations were present in 1/26, 3/26, and 3/20 infants with CSVT, respectively. FII (odds ratio: 10.96; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-110.35) and male sex (3.93; 95% CI: 1.43-10.76) were associated with CSVT. When FII G20210A analysis was adjusted for sex, the OR for FII G20210A was 6.70 (95% CI: 0.65-69.22). No differences were found for FV G1691A or homozygous MTHFR mutations between neonates with CSVT and their mothers, compared to controls.

Abstract:
SummaryIt was our aim to assess whether factor V Leiden (FVL) and G20210A prothrombin (FII) mutation are associated with the presence of residual vein obstruction (RVO) after a standard course of anticoagulation for a first episode of idiopathic proximal deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower limbs, with or without symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE). Patients were enrolled in two prospective multicentre studies: PROLONG and PROLONG II. RVO was detected by compression ultra-sonography according to the method of Prandoni on the day of anticoagulation withdrawal. Patients were also screened for FVL and FII mutation. The presence of FVL and/or FII mutation was determined in 872/963 (90.5%) patients, in 753 of whom RVO was assessed. FVL was significantly less frequent among subjects with isolated PE (7/176:4%) than among patients with either DVT and PE (15/133:11.3%; p=0.0018) or isolated DVT (89/563:15.8%; p<0.0001), confirming the FVL paradox. The rate of FII mutation was similar among patients with isolated PE (11/176:6.2%) and patients with either DVT and PE (12/133:9%) or isolated DVT (52/563:9.2%). FVL and FII mutation were not significantly associated with RVO at the multivariate analysis in all patients, although data suggest that FVL and FII mutation may have a differential effect on RVO in the subgroups of patients with DVT and DVT plus PE patients. Male sex and isolated DVT were significantly associated with RVO in all patients. In conclusion, male sex and isolated DVT are associated with RVO, while FVL and FII mutations are not significantly associated with RVO in this study.

Abstract:
Abstract Purpose: We hypothesized that exposure to locally relevant health content in Shortland Street (a New Zealand based hospital television drama) would be associated with increased knowledge and awareness of diabetes and associated risk factors. Methods: Prospective study design to compare knowledge of health and diabetes-related risk, and healthy behaviours, self-efficacy, behavioural intentions, and perceived social norms among a convenience sample of Fijian television viewers exposed to health messaging in three episodes of Shortland Street. Results: Exposure to health messages in the Shortland Street episodes was associated with change in perceived health and diabetes norms. Perception that family members were engaged with healthy behaviors increased significantly following exposure (p = .033). Perceived prevalence of diabetes among acquaintances significantly increased following exposure to the episodes (p = .008). Conclusions: Entertainment Education may be helpful in shifting health norms in the context of Fiji, alongside other health promotion measures.

Abstract:
Mining and mineral exploration have been a source of considerable tension in the developing world and specifically where they take place on indigenous lands. This thesis investigates the nature of the relationships between different stakeholders to a mineral exploration project in Fiji. It is an examination of the obstacles to community participation, a key component of even-handed development, in the planning and policy-making process. It is argued that the Namosi exploration project has been the locus for emergent social disruption. It is also argued, that the causes of this conflict are anchored in a flawed process of policy-making between the state and exploration companies and the contest for authority between key actors, which has led to the disempowerment of some villagers from both within and outside the community. Equally, the political ideology of the state and the contentious history of mining in Fiji, have played a part in the tendency towards social conflict in association with minerals exploration.
The starting point for analysis has been a comparison with the social conflict literature as it applies to Papua New Guinea. The purpose has been first, to confirm the relevance of that work to situations encountered in Fiji, and second, to provide a broader critique of the literature than previously available; one that further develops understanding of social conflict related to natural resource development. Given the circumstances of state and village politics in Melanesia, the question is asked, whether the normative 'fully realised communities' anticipated by Selznick in his communitarian idyll can be achieved. The thesis concludes that the nature of community involvement in development planning for mineral exploitation, creates a very different type of participation than that outlined in the literature of mining corporations and states. Although some actors have recourse to other means of empowering themselves, this is not a prelude to development for the wider community.

Abstract:
Histoire et suivi d'une cohorte multicentrique de 100 nouveau-nés à terme ayant eu un infarctus cérébral artériel (cohorte AVCnn). L'homogénéité de la population, le nombre d'inclus, la somme des données collectées et leur comparaison à des groupes témoins puis désormais la durée du suivi font de la cohorte AVCnn un outil de travail unique dans la littérature. Les premiers résultats ont permis de définir un profil obstétrico-néonatal clinique et biologique à risque (objectif principal de l'étude). Inversement d'autres facteurs de risque suspectés (comme les dysgravidies ou les mutations des facteurs II et V de la coagulation) n'ont pu être confirmés, probablement du fait de la sélectivité des critères d'inclusion; les études antérieures ayant en effet inclus des enfants avec divers types d'AVC périnatals. La cause de l'accident n'a été établie (objectif secondaire) que pour une minorité d'enfants. Il semble exister plusieurs mécanismes pathologiques, dont le poids de naissance et le sexe seraient des biomarqueurs. Des facteurs pronostiques (objectif secondaire) de l'évolution motrice, accessibles dès les premiers jours de vie à l'lRM, ont également été déterminés alors que les symptômes n'apparaîtront que plusieurs mois après. Ceci permet d'envisager qu'une prise en charge précoce et ciblée sur ces nouveau-nés serait d'autant plus efficace que l'enfant n'a pas encore de symptômes. L'évaluation de la qualité de vie et de l'autonomie à l'âge de 3,5 ans est terminée. L'évaluation développementale (profil moteur, neuropsychologique, langagier, comportemental, épileptique et réussite scolaire) et de la réorganisation fonctionnelle cérébrale par IRM à 7 ans viennent de débuter.
