As a consequence of their different origins, populations, legal status, administrations and rates of growth, the post-contact western and eastern Muan communities followed different historical trajectories. This chapter traces the history of Mua, linking events with the family connections which always existed but were down-played until the second half of the 20th century. There are four sections, each relating to a different period of Mua’s history. Each is historically contextualised and contains discussions on economy, administration, infrastructure, health, religion, education and population.

Instead, the effects of asanas could be ascribed to the increase in cardiovascular activity and expenditure of energy or to the expectation of health benefits. Therefore, to establish whether asanas are beneficial, researchers need to design a control condition in which participants complete activities, called sham poses, that are equivalent to traditional asanas in physical activity and expectation of benefits. Objectives: The aim of this research was to design an appropriate suite of sham poses and to demonstrate these poses and traditional asanas are equivalent in energy expenditure, cardiovascular response, and expectations of health benefits. Methods: Twenty healthy men at medium to high risk of developing diabetes volunteered to partake in the current study. These men completed two sessions that comprised traditional asanas and two sessions that comprised sham poses—poses that utilize the same muscle Citation: Ramamoorthi, R.; groups as the asanas and were assigned fictitious Sanskrit labels.

  • Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Towards Improved Adjunctive Therapies
    Pulmonary Tuberculosis: towards improved adjunctive therapies Anna Ralph July 2010 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University Front section: Author’s statement Author’s statement This thesis describes the development, implementation and preliminary results of the Arginine and Vitamin D Adjunctive Therapy in Pulmonary Tuberculosis (AVDAPT) randomised controlled trial. I had a central role in developing and implementing the study protocol collaboratively with my PhD supervisors Associate Professor Paul Kelly (Australian National University, Canberra) and Professor Nicholas Anstey (Menzies School of Health Research, Darwin), and with additional input from the investigators listed in Appendix 1. I wrote the initial draft of the study protocol for submission to the relevant ethics committees and for trial registration purposes (http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/ NCT00677339). I supervised and participated in the collection of data, performed the data analyses, wrote the thesis, and wrote all published and submitted manuscripts arising from the thesis. The named co-authors made intellectual and writing contributions to the final manuscripts. One section of data analysis was not performed by me: the interim safety analysis described in Chapter 10 was conducted by an independent biostatistician (Mr Joseph McDonnell, Menzies School of Health Research) in his role as a member of the AVDAPT study Data and Safety Monitoring Committee. I am a named Chief Investigator on the successful National Health and Medical Research Council Project Grant Application 605806 entitled ―L-Arginine and Vitamin D Adjunctive Therapies in Pulmonary Tuberculosis‖. _________________________ Anna Ralph BMedSci, MBBS(Hons), MPH, DTM&H, FRACP July 2010 i Front section: Acknowledgements Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge a number of people and organisations who have played significant roles in this research project.

The contents of the Darwin Sub Aqua club safety manual has been derived from research gathered from other SCUBA clubs world wide including information from the following agencies: DAN, BSAC, NAUI and PADI. 2. The intended purpose of the Darwin Sub Aqua Club safety manual is to set - forth guidelines that promote safe and responsible diving as part of any Darwin Sub Aqua Club (The Club) activity. The Club and the Club committee will take all care to facilitate the safe conduct of any Club dive, but it is the responsibility of each member to read, understand and follow these guidelines and understand the risk associated with SCUBA diving sport prior to undertaking diving activities. Each member and each active diver recognises that diving is a risk-associated sport and the individual is solely responsible for their own safe conduct.

  • Sepsis in Tropical Australia: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology and Adjunctive Therapy
    Sepsis in Tropical Australia: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology and Adjunctive Therapy. by Dr Joshua Saul Davis MBBS (Hons), DTM&H, Grad Cert Pop Health, FRACP A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Menzies School of Health Research Darwin, Northern Territory Australia And Institute of Advanced Studies Charles Darwin University March 2010 i Declaration I hereby declare that the work herein, now submitted as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Charles Darwin University is the result of my own investigations, and all references to ideas and work of other researchers have been specifically acknowledged. I hereby certify that the work embodied in this thesis has not already been accepted in substance for any degree, and is not currently being submitted in candidature for any other degree. ii Abstract Despite substantial advances in its management, severe sepsis remains the most common cause of death in intensive care units, and has a mortality of 30-50%. Within Australia, there are an estimated 15,000 cases of severe sepsis each year. However the epidemiology of sepsis in the tropical Northern Territory, a region with a high incidence of acute infections and chronic diseases, and a high proportion of Indigenous residents, has not been described. The pathophysiology of sepsis is complex and incompletely understood. A pivotal factor in sepsis pathophysiology is dysfunction of the endothelium, a metabolically active organ which lines the entire vascular system Following the literature reviews in section A, this thesis is divided into three parts. In section B, I present a 12-month prospective cohort study based at Royal Darwin Hospital describing the epidemiology of sepsis in the Top End of the Northern Territory.
