Identifying Dyslexia

Jeffrey W ester(Jeffrey W ester ) 글로벌응용인문학회 2024 글로벌응용인문학연구 Vol.2 No.1

Dyslexia is one of the most common learning disabilities and can be observed in every language and culture. In order to properly identify dyslexia educators must not only use multiple kinds of tests, but they must also take into account environmental factors that may cause dyslexia-like problems for a learner that does not have the disability. While educators should be watching for signs of disabilities, different schools and school districts have different amounts of resources that they can devote to the identification and intervention for dyslexic students. This paper looks at the benefits and challenges of trying to identify dyslexia and how we might overcome the obstacles that exist inside and outside the classroom. Ultimately it is the learner who must live with dyslexia and therefore it is the learner or their guardian that must be proactive about which approach to learning best suits them.

Global cooperation in education among economies and institutions can be better forged with proper understanding of their key educational policies, Issues and information on international cooperation activities. The APEC Forum provides for an opportunity for sharing these valuable information, views and experiences that will allow for discussions on proposals for further educational cooperation among economies especially on the important topics of the forum. The following are the key educational policies in the Philippines (1) K -12 Program (2) Internationalization (3) Mobility and Exchange of Faculty and Students (4) English as Competitive Advantage (5) Brain-Drain (6) Research Capacity Building (7) Environmental Degradation and Disaster Mitigation. The need to have a favorable environment and sustainable development cannot be overemphasized. Thus, the following recommendations for Green Growth for educational cooperation are recommended.

Ester Speroni,Rinaldo Cervellati,Stefano Dall’Acqua,Maria Clelia Guerra,Emanuela Greco,Paolo Govoni,Gabbriella Innocenti 한국식품영양과학회 2011 Journal of medicinal food Vol.14 No.5

Laurus nobilis L. (Family Lauraceae) is an evergreen tree widely distributed in the Mediterranean area and Europe. It is used in folk medicine of different countries as a stomachic and carminative as well as in treatment of gastric diseases. Extracts obtained with different methods (methanol and chloroform) from laurel leaves were evaluated for their gastroprotective activities in the rat. The antioxidant capacity of the different extracts has been also measured in vitro. In order to confirm the activities investigated, histological observations were performed. The gastric damage was significantly reduced by all extracts administered. The more effective protection was produced by chloroformic and methanolic crude extracts. The results obtained after oral administration of L. nobilis leaf extracts are in good agreement with their antioxidant capacity, confirming the relationship between pharmacological efficacy and antiradical activity. Histological evidences confirm the results evaluated with the animal procedures.

Textos en tránsito: transmodernidad en obras de dos escritoras hispanoamericanas

Ester Gimbernat González 서울대학교 라틴아메리카연구소 2010 이베로아메리카硏究 Vol.21 No.1

The recent works by two Latin American authors, Luisa Futoransky (Argentina) and Marta Aponte Alsina (Puerto Rico) that I study in this article, are good examples of what I call ‘texts in transit’. The intrinsic mobility in their propositions implies the globalized world and the interrelation between the local and global expressions: the glocality. The concept of the glocal is the transmodern summation and transformation of the modernist ‘global’ and the postmodernist ‘local’. The purpose of this article is to explore the transmodern gestures in these works following the postulates of the philosophers Rosa María Rodríguez Magda (Spanish) and Enrique Dussel (Argentine) about Transmodernidad. I analyze how the writings of these two women authors, transcend the limits of modernity, surpass the nihilism of postmodernity, and allude to a literary world in constant flux, where the interregnum of the transmodernity works as a type of glocalized encounter of the Spanish American expression and the global literary world.

The Effects of Powdered Fertilized Eggs on Depression

Ester Solberg 한국식품영양과학회 2011 Journal of medicinal food Vol.14 No.7

This 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled study investigated the effects of fertilized egg powder (Young Tissue Extract; YTE®) intake on outcome measures for depression. Fifty-five patients with depression were randomly assigned to receive YTE, YTE plus Melissa officinalis, or placebo for 12 weeks. At baseline, there were no significant differences in scores on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) or Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) among the 3 groups. At 12 weeks, the HAM-D scores in groups treated with YTE or YTE with M. officinalis were both significantly lower than those in the placebo group. In addition, both treatment groups showed a significant improvement in depression as measured by the change in HAM-D scores from baseline to 12 weeks, whereas the placebo group showed no significant change. There were no significant differences between the 2 treatment groups. The study indicates that the fertilized egg powder has an antidepressive effect and may be an alternative or adjunct to antidepressive medication for some patients, but further research is necessary.

The Polymerase Chain Reaction in Diagnosis of Small B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas

Antoro, Ester Lianawati,Dwianingsih, Ery Kus,Indrawati, Indrawati,Triningsih, FX Ediati,Harijadi, Harijadi Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2016 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.17 No.2

Background: Small B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) is difficult to be distinguished from non-neoplastic reactive processes using conventional haematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining due to different interpretations among pathologists with diagnosis based on morphologic features. Ancillary examinations such as immunohistochemical (IHC) staining are essential. However, negative or doubtful results are still sometimes obtained due to unsatisfactory tissue processing or IHC technique. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as a molecular diagnostic technique is very sensitive and specific. Clonality detection of heavy chain immunoglobulin (IgH) gene rearrangement has been widely used to establish diagnosis of B-cell NHL. Aims: To elaborate interobserver variation in small B-cell NHL diagnosis based on morphologic features only and to confirm sensitivity and specificity of the PCR technique as an ancillary method. Materials and Methods: A toptal of 28 samples of small B cell NHL and suspicious lymphoma were interpreted by 3 pathologists in Sardjito General Hospital based on their morphology only. The reliability of assessment and the coefficient of interobserver agreement were calculated by Fleiss kappa statistics. Interpretation results were confirmed with IHC staining (CD20, CD3, Bcl2). PCR was performed to analyze the clonality of IgH gene rearrangement. Results: Interobserver agreement in morphologic evalution of small B cell NHL and chronic lymphadenitis revealed kappa coefficient 0.69 included in the substantial agreement category. The cases were divided into 3 groups based on morphology and IHC results; lymphoma, reactive process and undetermined group. PCR analysis showed 90% sensitivity and 60% specificity. Conclusions: The present study revealed a substantial agreement among pathologists in small B-cell NHL diagnosis. For difficult cases, PCR is useful as complementary method to morphologic and IHC examinations to establish definitive diagnosis.
