South Asian immigrant cardiovascular risk assessment in Houston, Texas 2005

Background. Heart disease is the leading cause of death and stroke is the third leading cause of deaths for all people in the United States. South Asian Americans have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases than native United States residents. ^ Purpose. This study examines the cardiovascular risk factors in the South Asian immigrant community residing in Southwest Houston. This study also explores the level of health insurance available to the South Asian in Houston. ^ Methods. One hundred sixty-two South Asian patients aged 18 years and older received cardiovascular screening from January 1 st, 2005 to March 31st, 2005 at Ibn Sina Community Clinic; blood pressure was measured twice in both arms after resting five minutes. Height and weight were also recorded. Demographic data was collected through personal interview (questionnaire) and blood samples were drawn to collect laboratory data. ^ Results. There were 162 eligible South Asian patients, among whom 127 (78%) participated in the study. There were no significant differences between the responders and the non-responders in terms of demographics and clinical characteristics. Laboratory data revealed a mean total cholesterol of 201 ± 34 mg/dl, 54 percent had high total cholesterol above 200 mg/dl. The mean fasting glucose was 108 ± 43 mg/dl, and body mass index (BMI) was 28 ± 4 kg/m2. The prevalence of hypertension was comparable with the general U.S. population; 38 percent of the South Asian males and 29 percent of females had hypertension. The prevalence of diabetes was also compared; 21 percent of SA males (3% for white American males) and 7 percent of SA females (2% for white American females) were found to have undiagnosed diabetes. Of the sample 12 percent had both hypertension and diabetes; 21 percent had both hypertension and high BMI, and 19 percent had hypertension and high total cholesterol levels. ^ Conclusion. The present study shows that the South Asians in this sample are at greater risk of developing cardiovascular diseases than other ethnicities. The high prevalence of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, higher total cholesterol levels with overweight and obesity, and less leisure time physical activity are important cardiovascular risk factors for South Asians population. ^

Ordenamento territorial em Recife-pe : Os impactos urbanísticos e sociais da realocação de comunidades através do projeto Via Mangue

The logic of territorial ordainment in Recife has been developed mainly through the seclusion of the unwanted and the removal of stilt houses and slums in order to make room and prepare the space for new private enterprises. As an example of ordainment we took the 'Via Mangue' project, which is part of Recife's mobility plan and is one of the main projects aimed at the city's preparation for the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil. We believe that the project makes use of the 'great social benefits' discourse in order to cover its actual and practical consequences which, taken as whole, lead to the favoring of private sector over the public interest. That being so, the main goal of the present work is to make an analysis of territorial ordainment in Recife through the execution of the Via Mangue project; observing at the same time the urban and social impacts caused by the relocation of communities to the Via Mangue III housing complex, and verifying whether this policy actually promoted substantial improvement of habitability or only a precarious social inclusion of these populations. Our research was conducted and operated at three levels. First, the conceptual reconstitution of territorial ordainment; second, documental and cartographic research on the Via Mangue project; and last, fieldwork with observation of the constructed space and personal interviews with members of the families relocated to the Via Mangue III housing complex. We hope the present work could be a valuable contribution to the comprehension of the complexities involved in the relocation of families to housing complexes built by the government

Geochemistry of Miocene Alborán Basin volcanism

We present new major and trace element and O-Sr-Nd-isotope data for igneous rocks from the western Mediterranean Alborán Sea, collected during the METEOR 51/1 cruise, and for high-grade schists and gneisses from the continental Alborán basement, drilled during the Ocean Drilling Programme (ODP Leg 161, Site 976). The geochemical data allow a detailed examination of crustal and mantle processes involved in the petrogenesis of the lavas and for the first time reveal a zonation of the Miocene Alborán Sea volcanism: (1) a keel-shaped area of LREE-depleted (mainly tholeiitic series) lavas in the central Alborán Sea, generated by high degrees of partial melting of a depleted mantle source and involving hydrous fluids from subducted marine sediments, that is surrounded by (2) a horseshoe-shaped zone with LREE-enriched (mainly calc-alkaline series) lavas subparallel to the arcuate Betic-Gibraltar-Rif mountain belt. We propose that the geochemical zonation of the Miocene Alborán Basin volcanism results from eastward subduction of Tethys oceanic lithosphere coupled with increasing lithospheric thickness between the central Alborán Sea and the continental margins of Iberia and Africa.
