The Impact

Given the impact of COVID-19 and the desert locust plague, the Ethiopian food security issue has once again received widespread attention. Its food crisis requires comprehensive and systematic research to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of zero hunger. This review discusses the current situation and the causes of food security in Ethiopia. We focus on the challenges in the food security assessment field. The article lists seven typical causes of food insecurity and three roots of food security in Ethiopia. Long-term food security assessment and a comprehensive understanding and manageability for food security causes are considered as the main existing research challenges. Climate-resilient management, water management, and long-term ecosystem network monitoring and data mining are suggested as potential roadmap for future research.

Vessel Ligation

Abstract Unclippable intracranial aneurysms are most effectively treated by hunterian ligation; however, the attendant risk of cerebral ischemia is significant. Many techniques have been used in an attempt to predict the safety of proximal vessel occlusion. Unfortunately, there is none that is risk-free and highly successful. A combination of stump pressure and cerebral blood flow measurements has been shown to be the most accurate in the acute assessment. In addition, recent studies have demonstrated that the long term risk of carotid ligation is significant. Extracranial-intracranial bypass grafting (EC-IC) has been shown to improve the safety of parent vessel ligation and is a low risk procedure. Whenever hunterian ligation is planned for the treatment of an intracranial aneurysm, EC-IC should be strongly considered. (Neurosurgery 16:111–116, 1985)

Term Survival

Islet transplantation holds renewed promise as a cure for type I diabetes mellitus. Results of recent clinical trials have shown remarkable success, and have reignited universal optimism for this procedure. In spite of this success, the need for life–long immunosuppression of the recipient still limits islet transplantation to patients with poorly controlled diabetes or to those requiring kidney transplantation. It is obvious that the achievement of immunological tolerance would broaden the indication for islet transplantation to a much larger cohort of patients with type I diabetes mellitus, most likely preventing long–term complications and contributing to a much improved quality of life. Increased understanding of the basic mechanisms of tolerance induction has resulted in the implementation of numerous experimental approaches to achieve long–term survival of islet grafts in the absence of chronic immunosuppression. In this brief review we will attempt to summarize the current status of research and knowledge.
