    Abstract This article is about denouncing the dehumanisation process that took place in the time of Covid-19. It recognises that governments have a vital role to play in setting national directions to tackle racist violence and that the value of having hate crime laws should not be underestimated. However, it argues that a broader approach is needed to embark upon a

  5. Article ; Online: An assessment of the impact of cross-cultural variation in plant macronutrients on the recommendations of the Paleo Diet.

    Ruffett, Amalea / Collard, Mark

    Abstract: Background: One of the main recommendations of the Paleo Diet is that individuals replicate the whole-diet macronutrient ranges of hunter-gatherer diets. These are suggested to be 19%-35% protein, 22%-40% carbohydrate, and 28%-58% fat, by energy. ... ...

    Abstract Background: One of the main recommendations of the Paleo Diet is that individuals replicate the whole-diet macronutrient ranges of hunter-gatherer diets. These are suggested to be 19%-35% protein, 22%-40% carbohydrate, and 28%-58% fat, by energy. However, the plant food contribution to these ranges was estimated exclusively from Australian data, which is a potential problem.
    Objectives: We investigated whether estimates of the contribution of protein, carbohydrate, and fat to hunter-gatherer diets are impacted by using plant data from other regions of the world.
    Methods: The values that form the basis of the Paleo Diet' s recommended macronutrient ranges were generated with a set of equations. We combined these equations with published plant macronutrient data from a multi-region sample of 5 hunter-gatherer groups to generate new estimated macronutrient percentages and then statistically compared the old and new estimates. Subsequently, we collated plant macronutrient data for a sample of 10 hunter-gatherer groups from several regions and repeated the exercise.
    Results: The whole-diet macronutrient percentages we calculated are significantly different from those that underpin the Paleo Diet's recommendations. Additionally, the ranges derived from our whole-diet macronutrient percentages (14%-35% protein, 21%-55% carbohydrate, 12%-58% fat) are markedly wider than those recommended by the Paleo Diet.
    Conclusions: The estimated whole-diet macronutrient percentages that form the basis of the Paleo Diet's macronutrient recommendations are not robust. Using plant data from multiple regions leads to significantly different estimates. Additionally, the macronutrient ranges derived from our whole-diet macronutrient percentages overlap with those recommended by the US Department of Agriculture and the WHO. This undercuts one of the main justifications for adopting the Paleo Diet-namely that because it is vastly different from Western diets, it can reduce the probability of experiencing noncommunicable diseases. There may still be reasons for adopting the Paleo Diet rather than a conventional diet, but healthier macronutrient percentages is not one of them.

    Abstract Establishing a link between mandibular morphology and diet in extant primates has long been a goal in biological anthropology because it should provide important insight into the diets of extinct primates, including fossil hominins. To date, efforts to explore this question have produced mixed results, largely perhaps due to a reliance on the use of 2D morphological data. Here, we report a study where we investigated whether 3D shape data would provide a clearer picture. We used geometric morphometrics to analyse 3D mandibular shape variation in a sample of > 200 primate specimens, representing individuals from 27 species and five families. Two sets of analyses investigated i) whether there was a relationship between mandibular shape and four standard dietary categories and ii) whether there was a relationship between mandibular shape and a well-known index of diet quality. We found an association between mandibular shape and the dietary categories when we employed raw Procrustes coordinates and allometry-free residuals, but the relationship was weak to non-existent when the effects of phylogeny were taken into account. We found no relationship between shape and the diet quality index, no matter whether the data were raw, corrected for the effects of allometry, corrected for the effects of phylogeny, or corrected for the effects of both allometry and phylogeny. Taken together, the results of the two sets of analyses suggest that there is a weak relationship between 3D mandibular shape and diet in extant primates. Allometry and phylogeny appear to be more important influences on the 3D shape of extant primate mandibles than is diet. We conclude from this that 3D analysis of mandibular shape is unlikely to further illuminate the diets of extinct primates, and research efforts should, therefore, be directed elsewhere.

    Abstract This paper forms part of a series on the management of patients with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP). Children with CLP have a higher incidence of dental caries and dental anomalies. This paper explains the important roles of both the general dental practitioner and specialist paediatric dentist on the cleft team in managing these children alongside the multidisciplinary team.

    Abstract The proximity of the very low rectum rectal cancer to the anal sphincter raises a specific problem: how and until when can we preserve the anal continence without compromising the oncological result of the tumor resection? In this situation, intersphincteric resection (ISR) offers an excellent alternative to abdominoperineal resection (APR), but the selection of patients for this option must be extremely precise. This complex choice justifies the simultaneous consideration of an oncological approach with a functional approach in order to provide a full benefit to the patient. When a circumferential resection margin of at least 1 mm can be performed with a distal resection margin of at least 1 cm with or without preoperative radiotherapy, ISR ensures a safety choice. The oncological results of ISR reported in the literature when performed properly found a 5-year disease-free survival of 80.2% with a local recurrence rate of only 5.8%. In parallel to this oncological evaluation, the expected post-operative functional outcome and the resulting quality of life must be properly assessed pre-operatively, since partial or total resection of the internal sphincter impacts significantly on the functional outcome. Based on data from the literature, this work reports the essential anatomical considerations and then the oncological and functional elements indispensables when an anal continence preservation is evoked for a tumor of the very low rectum. Finally, the precise selection criteria and the major surgical principles are outlined in order to guarantee the safety of this modern choice for the patient.
