Letter from P.E. Magennis to Hagan
No full textFragment typescript letter with handwritten additions in ink from [P.E. Magennis], Collegio Internazionale del PP. Carmelitani, Via Sforza Pallavicini 10, Rome, to [Hagan]. Relating his diplomatic achievements, in a cryptic style, [concerning Archbishop Mannix], in his conversations with 'the Ex. Austral.' [Cerretti], who confirmed that 'the lads' [English] had been at it, and whom he tried to convince of the strength of the movement and of 'the final triumph': 'no man who had seen things at close quarters can [doubt the final]'. 'The little man' [the Pope] is very interested and would do according to suggestions in a recent document. [Magennis] has written to 'His of Adella' and to Signore Foli who at present is 'in Babylon'. He is satisfied with matters overall � 'the move was an excellent one and not too hot to handle'. Hagan's presence will be as important as ever 'to resume operations on the home front'. He could not get the facts; asking to obtain the first letter sent to 'Adella' (end missing). (Date, author, addressee and names supplied from pencil annotations by [Curran].
What factors determine placental glucose transfer kinetics?
No full textIntroduction: transfer of glucose across the human placenta is directly proportional to maternal glucose concentrations even when these are well above the physiological range. This study investigates the relationship between maternal and fetal glucose concentrations and transfer across the placenta.Methods: transfer of d-glucose, 3H-3-o-methyl-d-glucose (3H-3MG) and 14C-l-glucose across the isolated perfused human placental cotyledon was determined for maternal and fetal arterial d-glucose concentrations between 0 and 20 mmol/l.Results: clearance of 3H-3MG or 14C-l-glucose was not affected by maternal or fetal d-glucose concentrations in either circulation.Discussion: based on the arterial glucose concentrations and the reported KM for GLUT1, the transfer of d-glucose and 3H-3MG would be expected to show signs of saturation as d-glucose concentrations increased but this did not occur. One explanation for this is that incomplete mixing of maternal blood and the rate of diffusion across unstirred layers may lower the effective concentration of glucose at the microvillous membrane and subsequently at the basal membrane. Uncertainties about the affinity of GLUT1 for glucose, both outside and inside the cell, may also contribute to the difference between the predicted and observed kinetics.Conclusion: these factors may therefore help explain why the observed and predicted kinetics differ and they emphasise the importance of understanding the function of transport proteins in their physiological context. The development of a computational model of glucose transfer may improve our understanding of how the determinants of placental glucose transfer interact and function as a syste
The Power of P.E.: Evaluating a P.E. Program for an Urban Middle School
Get PDFThis research study was aimed at developing an evaluation survey tool to measure the effects of physical activity and physical education on middle school students’ physical, mental, emotional, and social health and well-being. This study was conducted in a middle school in the challenging, underserved Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco, California in April to June 2018. Data for this research was obtained by questionnaires distributed electronically to students. The questionnaire, sent to the students in the month of April and June, had them select the response that best described how they felt on the days they had P.E. and days they did not. Responses were made on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from “Definitely No” to “Definitely Yes”. The sample of 33 students were selected from the students who completed both no P.E. and P.E. day surveys in both April and June. The survey results suggest that the P.E. program of the school had significant, positive effects on students’ responses to questions regarding their anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, mood, and stress. The results provide some support for the benefits of physical activity and physical education on students, particularly children and adolescents

Data collection for each treatment (weight change (mean, SE)) is indicated. Morbidity of Infected untreated mice from corresponding relevant experiments is shown. The number of mice succumbed to the infection in each time point is outlined color coded in a box above each graph.
