Evaluation of new diagnostic and treatment strategies in the management of the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
No full textIncludes bibliography.Despite major advances over the last two decades with the management of patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES), unanswered questions remain concerning the natural history of the disease, the impact of new diagnostics modalities on cure rates, and the role of surgery in the era of modem medical therapies. The aims of the thesis are to (i) analyse the database of 40 ZES patients treated at Groote Schuur Hospital (GSH) over two decades, with special reference to the impact of various surgical strategies on outcome, (ii) investigate a possible correlation between biological tissue marker expression and tumour behaviour, (iii) study the effect of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) on surgical cure rates, and (iv) assess the efficacy and safety of a new proton pump inhibitor (pantoprazole) in controlling acid hypersecretion

Ellison, Fanon and Guerrilla War
No full text“Ellison, Fanon and Guerrilla War” shows the close interrelationship between writers and intellectuals of African descent in spite of enormous differences of geographic position and social status. The essay shows the shared body of concerns, the community of texts used for analysis, and the development of the terms and strategies to disable the alienation of the African subject in the West. The community of shared interests between the two men, who both published major works in 1952, is considerably strengthened after the discovery of early drafts of Ellison’s novel which show a thoroughgoing interest with decolonization and the use of violence as a strategy for disalienation.«Ellison, Fanon and Guerrilla War » se propose d’étudier ce qui relie Ellison à Fanon, écrivains et intellectuels d’origine africaine, et ce, en dépit d’importantes différences d’ordre géographique et social. L ’article analyse les préoccupations qu ’ils avaient en commun, les textes qui ont nourri leurs réflexions et s ’intéresse aussi à leur définition évolutive d’une stratégie de désaliénation du sujet africain en Occident. Entre ces deux hommes, qui publièrent tous deux des œuvres majeures en 1952, se dessine une communauté d’intérêts qui se révèle primordiale avec la découverte des premières épreuves du roman d ’Ellison, où celui-ci porte une attention toute particulière à la décolonisation et à la violence comme instrument de la désaliénation.Jackson Lawrence.
