An eighth-century inscribed cross-slab in Dull, Perthshire
Get PDFThe discovery of a cross-inscribed slab with an inscription is described. Because of its importance it was decided to invite specialist comment on this piece of sculpture and to publish it in advance of the full report on the excavations. The form of the monument, its inscription and archaeological context are considered. The text appears to consist of a Gaelic personal name. The script is a form of geometrical lettering which can be dated to the opening quarter of the eighth century. The form of the cross has Columban associations which sit well with place-name and other evidence which points to Dull having been a monastery founded from Iona by c. AD 700

meddwl plant a phobl ifanc yng Nghymru (Rhwydwaith Ymchwil Iechyd Mewn Ysgolion
[SHRN] 2023) a diwygiadau diweddar i’r cwricwlwm at gyflwyno canllawiau statudol i hybu
dull ysgol gyfan i gefnogi lles emosiynol a meddyliol positif holl randdeiliaid y gymuned
ysgol (Llywodraeth Cymru [LlC] 2021). Mae’r ‘Fframwaith ar sefydlu dull ysgol gyfan
ar gyfer llesiant emosiynol a meddyliol’ (y Fframwaith) (LlC 2021) yn canolbwyntio ar
sefydlu’r gwerthoedd craidd o ‘berthyn’, ‘effeithlonrwydd’ a ‘llais’ ar draws pob agwedd ar
ddarpariaeth yr ysgol er mwyn creu cymuned gymdeithasol ac emosiynol gadarnhaol. Bydd
yr adolygiad integredig hwn yn archwilio llenyddiaeth sy’n canolbwyntio ar y dulliau ysgol
gyfan hyn, ac yn mynd i’r afael â rhai materion sy’n hwyluso ac yn rhwystro gweithredu’r
rhain yn llwyddiannus. Dengys y canfyddiadau nad yw nifer o ysgolion wedi ymrwymo’n
llawn i’r Fframwaith (LlC 2021) hyd yma, yn enwedig felly o safbwynt y dull ysgol gyfan,
felly terfynir yr erthygl trwy gynnig argymhellion ar gyfer y ffordd ymlaen.

Adverse events associated with transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) for chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease: a MAUDE database analysis
No full textBackground: Transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) has been used for treating chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) refractory to medical therapy. We aim to investigate the complications associated with TIF using a national database. Methods: We analyzed post-marketing surveillance data from the FDA Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database from Jan 2011 through Jan 2021. Results: During the study period, approximately 95 event cases reported to the FDA. Approximately 131 patient complications were identified. The number of adverse events declined from 2011 to 2016 (R2 = 0.96) but increased from 2016 to 2020 (R2 = 0.99). The most common adverse event was perforation (19.8%), followed by laceration 17.6%, bleeding (9.2%), and pleural effusion (9.2%). The most common patient complications were treated using endoscopic clips (12.3%), chest tube or drain insertion (12.3%), use of endoscopic retriever device (11.1%), esophageal stent (8.6%), and emergent or open surgery (11.1%). Conclusions: Adverse events from TIF range from mild to severe. Further research is needed to develop approaches aimed at reducing patient risks
American Naval History, 1607-1865
Get PDFFor its first eighty-five years, the United States was only a minor naval power. Its fledgling fleet had been virtually annihilated during the War of Independence and was mostly trapped in port by the end of the War of 1812. How this meager presence became the major naval power it remains to this day is the subject of American Naval History, 1607–1865: Overcoming the Colonial Legacy. A wide-ranging yet concise survey of the U.S. Navy from the colonial era through the Civil War, the book draws on American, British, and French history to reveal how navies reflect diplomatic, political, economic, and social developments and to show how the foundation of America’s future naval greatness was laid during the Civil War.
Award-winning author Jonathan R. Dull documents the remarkable transformation of the U.S. Navy between 1861 and 1865, thanks largely to brilliant naval officers like David Farragut, David D. Porter, and Andrew Foote; visionary politicians like Abraham Lincoln and Gideon Welles; and progressive industrialists like James Eads and John Ericsson. But only by understanding the failings of the antebellum navy can the accomplishments of Lincoln’s navy be fully appreciated. Exploring such topics as delays in American naval development, differences between the U.S. and European fleets, and the effect that the country’s colonial past had on its naval policies, Dull offers a new perspective on both American naval history and the history of the developing republic
