    Chelewa, chelewa : the dilemma of teenage girls

    No full text
    In the past, the transition from childhood to womanhood was immediate and direct, and menarche was a sign of initiation and readiness to marry. Nowadays girls find themselves trapped between customary expectations and the claims of modernization. This book by the Teenage Girls and Reproductive Health Study Group at the University of Dar es Salaam presents empirical studies of the situation of teenage girls in Tanzania.CONTENTS: Preface / Zubeida Tumbo-Masabo -- 1.

    Elaboración de néctar de tumbo (Passiflora mollisima)

    En el Perú se cuenta con una gran diversidad de alimentos, los cuales incluyen vegetales, tubérculos y frutos. Todos ellos poseen una infinidad de nutrientes muy importantes para el organismo, sin embargo, muchos de ellos no son apreciados o simplemente no son reconocidos. El tumbo (Passiflora tripartita var. Mollisima) es originario de los valles interandinos y de la zona quechua, y se encuentra en todos los Andes del Perú. Llamado anteriormente poro poro, poseía un lugar privilegiado entre las frutas de los incas. También se le puede hallar en otros países de América (aunque es conocido con otras denominaciones, como) curuba* en Colombia “parcha” en Venezuela “granadilla cimarrona” en México y “taxo” en Ecuador. El tumbo es una planta de zonas altas y frías; se desarrolla bien entre los 2000 a 3000 msnm, y se adapta al clima monzónico, con temporadas alternantes y secas. El tumbo es una de las frutas con un alto contenido de ácido ascórbico (66.7 mg) en 100 g de porción comestible, pues los investigadores informan, desde su descubrimiento en 1936, casi periódicamente sobre nuevas aplicaciones del ácido ascórbico, un alimento funcional, porque más allá de nutrir tiene efectos benéficos para la salud. El presente trabajo monográfico recopila información sobre la especie tumbo como su origen, características botánicas y morfológicas, taxonomía, usos, así como el proceso de elaboración de néctar a base de esta fruta, el objetivo de este trabajo es servir de información para futuras investigaciones

    Symptoms of Imminent Eclampsia Among Women Attending Care at Muhimbili National Hospital: A Case Refferent Study

    No full text
    Preeclampsia affects about 5 to 10% of all pregnancies and eclamptic seizure is one of its serious complications. In many developing countries including Tanzania, maternal and perinatal mortality due to eclampsia are high. As yet, primary prevention of eclampsia is not possible since the causes are largely unknown. Headache, visual disturbance, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting have been reported by various studies to precede most eclamptic seizures; thus could be used to predict and therefore prevent some cases given the availability of magnesium sulphate. These symptoms however are also common in normal pregnancy and post delivery mothers due to physiological changes of pregnancy and common disease conditions that usually affect pregnant women in our settings. The present study evaluated the characteristics of symptoms that are consistent with imminence of eclampsia This was a case referent study in which 123 eclamptic and 123 non eclamptic mothers that best matched in terms of age, parity, gestation age and delivery were enrolled, making a total of 246 women. The presence and characteristics of headache, visual disturbance, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting were enquired. A 4 grade scale was used to grade the severity of headache. In the rest of symptoms, common presenting features were utilized. Headache was common in both groups but was more frequent in eclamptic than in referent group of women (88% vs. 43%, p <0.001). In eclamptic mothers headache was mainly severe, frontal and most of the seizures happened within one week of the onset of headache, as compared to referent women where headache was mostly mild and either frontal or generalized. Visual problems were significantly frequent in eclamptics than in referent women, (39% vs. 3% p<0.001). Of the eclamptic mothers who presented with visual problems, 45(94%) had blurring of vision, 32(67%) had blind spots, 10(21%) had photophobia and only 7(15%) had total blindness. A total of 47(98%) of eclamptic mothers developed seizures within 12hours of the onset of visual problems. The frequency of abdominal pain was not significantly different between eclamptic and referent mothers (47% vs.38% p=0.156), however upper quadrant abdominal pain was significantly reported in eclamptic than in referent group of women (36% vs.9%, p=0.001). There was no significant difference on the type of abdominal pain presented by both groups. Nausea was common in both eclamptics and referent group of women (60% vs. 54%, p=0.303). There was no difference on presentation with vomiting among eclamptic and referent women (62% vs. 68% p=0.516) and in both groups the type of vomiting was commonly non projectile. This study has revealed that headache, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting are common to pregnancy whether or not complicated by preeclampsia/eclampsia. The characteristics of headache, visual disturbances and abdominal pain differ between eclamptics and women without preeclampsia/eclampsia. In a pre eclamptic woman, an onset of a severe frontal headache or upper quadrant abdominal pain would suggest an occurrence of seizures within one week. Visual disturbance is the most ominous sign as seizures ensue within 12 hours of its onset. Nausea and vomiting cannot be reliably used to predict clampsia.\u

    Restoring anthropogenic fires to Garry oak ecosystems : a case study from Tumbo Island North

    No full text
    This research is focused at the sites of Tumbo Island North and Tumbo Cliff (both on Tumbo Island within the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve [GINPR]), with supplemental data from Rocky Point Department of National Defense (DND) and Garry oak Preserve on Vancouver Island, and Waldron Island in Washington State. Field data is overlaid with a literature review of First Nations’ land management practices and acknowledges First Nations’ use of wildfire on traditional landscapes. Results comparing 2010 to 2018 vegetation data indicate an overall increase in exotic and native species and a net negative effect of fire application. Fuel loading levels are higher than expected and have a direct relationship to fire behaviour outputs. Canopy cover has a positive net effect on native species in grass strata and exotic species in forest strata and a negative net effect if found on exotic species in grass strata and native species in forest strata. An additional product of this research is a restoration plan for Tumbo Island North, which includes a comprehensive burn plan for reintroducing fire to Garry oak (Quercus garryana or p’hwulhp ) ecosystems with an aim to restoration, and with specific prescriptions for reducing conifer encroachment, reducing forest fuel loading, increasing oak sapling regeneration and survival, and increasing plant diversity of native plant species. This restoration plan can serve as a model that can be adapted and used at other Garry oak ecosystem sites. p’hwulhp is the Hul’qumi’num word for Garry oak (Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group, 2011,p.10)

    Les miniatures des Tumbos A et B de la cathédrale de Saint-Jacques de Compostelle et du Tumbo de Touxos Outos établissent à travers la représentation des rois, reines et infantes, d’Alphonse II à Alphonse X, une généalogie royale. L’analyse des miniatures consacrées aux figures féminines confirme que, dans le royaume de León et en Castille, les infantes ont eu, aux XIe et XIIe siècles, un rôle majeur, spirituel et politique, notamment à travers l’institution de l’infantat. Las miniaturas de los Tumbos A y B de la catedral de Santiago de Compostela, y del Tumbo de Touxos Outos establecen a través de la representación de los reyes, reinas e infantas, desde Alfonso II hasta Alfonso X, una genealogía real. El análisis de las miniaturas dedicadas a las figuras femeninas confirma que, en el reino de León y en Castilla, las infantas detuvieron, durante los siglos XI y XII, un papel importante, a la vez espiritual y político, sobre todo gracias a la institución del infantado
