The traumatic experience and sexual violence in Halima Bashir’s tears of the desert
No full textEl objetivo principal de este trabajo se centra en el análisis de la experiencia traumática de la escritora sudanesa Halima Bashir en su obra autobiográfica Las lágrimas del desierto. A la hora de analizar la obra hemos tenido en cuenta los postulados del trauma para entender la función de la memoria como herramienta a partir de la cual la memoria individual de Halima se convierte en memoria colectiva para los sudaneses oprimidos en Darfur. La obra de Halima, aunque se centra en la experiencia de violación de un individuo, implica un mensaje político y un testimonio histórico de las atrocidades en Darfur.This paper applies trauma theory to Tears of the Desert, an autobiography written by the Sudanese author Halima Bashir. It examines the traumatic experience of the protagonist Halima Bashir who has been raped during Darfur conflict. In applying the aforementioned theory, this paper shows how the traumatic memory of Halima stands as a collective memory for the oppressed Sudanese in Darfur. Halima’s work, although focusing on the rape experience of an individual, implies a political message that many Sudanese were subjected to physical and psychological traumas as they were bearing witness to the conflict in Darfur

An integrated approach to iron deficiency anemia
No full text36-41Iron deficiency is a common
nutritional disorder in developing countries and contributes significantly to
reduced work productivity and economic output as well as to increased morbidity
and mortality. There are well established biochemical tests for assessing iron
status in developed countries. However, cost and interference from infectious
conditions make it difficult to assess iron status in many developing country
settings. Examination of the hemoglobin distribution in the population and assessment
of the hemoglobin response to supplementation are alternative approaches to
defining iron status and the nature of anemia. Prevention and control of iron
deficiency requires the combined approach of dietary improvement, fortification
of a common staple food when feasible, and appropriate iron supplementation for
infants and pregnant women. In all these intervention activities, operational
research is needed to improve effectiveness. In addition, controlling iron
deficiency requires coordination with other nutrition and primary healthcare
programs as part of an integrated approach to improved health and nutrition of
the population. A randomized, controlled double blind clinical trial was
conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of herbal medicinal treatment
syrup Sharbat-a-Folad versus syrup Ferplex for the treatment of
Iron Deficiency Anemia.

Beberapa hasil penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh FDI terhadap Growth GDP dan begitupun Growth GDP berpengaruh terhadap FDI yang didukung pula oleh variabel lain yaitu Degree of Openness, Labor Force, Gross Fixed Capital Formation dan Balance of Trade maka dari itu penulis akan melakukan analisis persamaan simultan dengan menggunakan metode 2SLS (two Stage Least Square) di ASEAN. Berdasarkan
hasil analisis yang sudah dilakukan didapat bahwa terdapat pengaruh growth GDP, Degree of Openness dan Labor Force pada FDI terhadap GDP dengan kebaikan model sebesar 96,40% dan terdapat pengaruh dari FDI terhadap GDP, Gross Fixed Capital Formation terhadap GDP dan Balance of Trade terhadap Growth GDP dengan kebaikan model sebesar 88,29%.
