Celiac Disease Assocaited with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis in a Coast Salish Native by Hugh J Freeman

“…These patients are the first reported natives in Canada with celiac disease, a disorder believed to be genetically based but dependent on environmental factors for its clinical expression. The recognition of a ‘new’ disease in the setting of an aboriginal population may reflect geographical and climatic factors that permitted subsistence of this culturally complex food-gathering society up until most recent historical times, followed by adaptation of this society to European-based agricultural methods, particularly wheat cultivation.…”

Les épidémiologistes, les chercheurs en sciences sociales et l’organisation de la recherche médicale sur le sida en Afrique [1991] by Randall M. Packard, Paul Epstein

“…Early explanations of these differences focused on the peculiarities of African behavior, while largely excluding from vision a range of environmental factors. These parallels provide a framework for examining how western ideas about AIDS in Africa developed, the role of social scientists in the formation of these ideas, and how these initial perceptions shaped the subsequent development of AIDS research, encouraging a premature narrowing of research questions. …”

Modular patterns in hygroscopic 4D printing design – Form and programming of the material by David Correa, Fabio Bianconi, Marco Filippucci, Giulia Pelliccia

“…The research emphasises the role of precise control of kinematics through material programming and printing parameters to achieve dynamic shape-change mechanisms in response to environmental factors. In 4DP, the geometric configurations of printed objects depend not only on the materials but also on their combination, time, and environmental stimuli, leading to the concept of material architecture: in the context of 4DP, the relationship between form and matter is, therefore, redefined. …”
