AbstractThis paper seeks to account for the development of a public health education policy with respect to venereal disease during the period 1916–1926. Two competing pressure groups, the National Council for Combatting Venereal Disease and the Society for the Prevention of Venereal Disease, defended opposing programmes; the one based on moral education (NCCVD) and the other (SPVD) on medical prophylaxis. Many of the interests represented by the groups and the political dimensions that they took, were influenced by factors only very tangentially connected to health education.Any account of the development of policy in this field needs placing in the context of the early history of nineteenth-century anti-vice crusades; the role of the Army Medical Corps during the 1914–18 war; and the bureaucratic protectionism of the Ministry of Health personnel.

For over six decades, the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE) has been a leading professional organization for the field of health education (HE). This historical research extends the work of Cissell and Bloom by investigating the recent history of SOPHE. The aims of this historical study were to (1) identify key SOPHE and HE events from 2000 to 2015, (2) describe key contributions of SOPHE to the HE field during this time period, and (3) identify potential future directions for SOPHE. Johnson and Christensen’s five steps for historical research were followed to conduct an eDelphi study and one-on-one interviews. During the three-round eDelphi study, SOPHE officers ( n = 16) and senior staff ( n = 5), who served between 2000 and 2015, identified significant SOPHE’s leaders and rated the importance of SOPHE’s recent events. Key leaders ( n = 25) participated in semistructured interviews to describe their involvement in SOPHE, specific SOPHE activities, and future directions for SOPHE. Brief, structured intercept interviews were also conducted with student ( n = 10) and professional SOPHE members ( n = 11). Data collected during the eDelphi study were analyzed to determine central tendency statistics and percent agreement on each event evaluated in the second- and third-round surveys. Qualitative interview data were analyzed with NVivo using thematic analysis. Data from the eDelphi study revealed 29 SOPHE and 17 HE events that occurred between 2000 and 2015 as being “important” or “very important.” Results from the thematic analysis revealed several themes in three areas: SOPHE accomplishments, benefits of SOPHE membership, and possible future directions for SOPHE to explore.

This study seeks to synergize the education of character-based Sirah Nabawiyah. The effort to identify the education-based moral and ethical education theme in Sirah Nabawiyah synergizes with the concept of the liberation character of Paulo Freire. The purpose of education is moral education and the ability to cultivate a liberation spirit of inequality and social discrimination in the community. This study is library research, a literary search related to the thought of Freire and the concept of Sirah Nabawiyah. This research is also included in the category of historical-factual research because the one that is research is the history of one's thinking. The results of the study found: firstly, education, according to Freire, must be able to adapt to the pace of reality, to remain in the state of being. Second, the education learning of the liberation-based character Sirah Nabawiyah rests on ethical values, perceives and loves the goodness manifested in the advocacy effort of the suppression and oppression situation. Thirdly, a release-based education based on Sirah Nabawiyah should present a critical, adaptive and integrated attitude. Finally, the hope of the education-based character Sirah Nabawiyah can advocate the problem of cultural concussion by a wise and thoughtful.

Abstract During 2006–2008, twenty cases with sparganosis caused by eating live tadpoles emerged in Henan province, central China. To determine seroprevalence of anti-sparganum antibodies and obtain information about habits of eating live tadpoles and risks for sparganum infection, a serological survey was carried out in one village of Henan. Antisparganum IgG in 298 serum samples were assayed by ELISA using excretory and secretory (ES) antigens of Spirometra mansoni spargana. The results showed 56.71 % (169/298) of inhabitants had the history of eating live tadpoles. The overall seroprevalence was 5.7 % (17/298). The seroprevalence of the inhabitants who had the habit of eating tadpoles (9.47 %) was obviously higher than those who did not (0.78 %) (P < 0.01). Eating live tadpoles had become the most common risk behavior for sparganum infection. Hence, the comprehensive public health education should be carried out in endemic areas, and the habit of eating live tadpoles must be discouraged.

Background: Pharyngo-oesophageal foreign bodies (PFB) in children are frequent clinical entity requiring an urgent radiological and endoscopic surgical intervention to avert life threatened complications seen in otorhinolaryngology practice. Objective: The objective of this study is to describe the pattern of pharyngooesophageal foreign bodies’ impaction, management challenges and the need for health education to care givers. Method: A retrospective review of all cases of paediatric patients with suspected or confirmed history of PFB from January 2007 to December 2011. The information retrieved included the biodata, types of foreign body, clinical and radiological findings, treatment and outcome.Results were analysed by simple statistical table. Results: Sixty seven patients diagnosed with Pharyngo-oesophageal Foreign Body, forty three (64%) were males while 24(36%) were females with M: F ratio = 1.8:1 and Mean age of 4.9 years (age range 6months to 13years.).Coins 36(54%) were the commonest PFB. Only 13(19%) presented to hospital within 24hours of ingestion. Common presenting symptom were Vomiting 70%, and dysphagia in 73%. Fifty four (81%) had positive history of FB ingestion and 13(19%) of the patient PFB were detected radiologically. Sixty three (94%) had rigid oesophagoscopy and removal under general anaesthesia while 4(6%) fish bone FB in the tonsils were extracted in the out-patient clinic after xylocaine spray. Post operative complications were noticed in 13(19%). Conclusion: Coin is the commonest pharyngoesophageal foreign body in children. Only 19% of these patient presented to hospital within 24hours therefore public health education to parents and care givers is recommended.

The first chapter of Hieroglyphic Modernisms exposes the complex history of Western misconceptions of Egyptian writing from antiquity to the present. Hieroglyphs bridge the gap between modern technologies and the ancient past, looking forward to the rise of new media and backward to the dispersal of languages in the mythical moment of the Tower of Babel. The contradictory ways in which hieroglyphs were interpreted in the West come to shape the differing ways that modernist writers and filmmakers understood the relationship between writing, film, and other new media. On the one hand, poets like Ezra Pound and film theorists like Vachel Lindsay and Sergei Eisenstein use the visual languages of China and of Egypt as a more primal or direct alternative to written words. But Freud, Proust, and the later Eisenstein conversely emphasize the phonetic qualities of Egyptian writing, its similarity to alphabetical scripts. The chapter concludes by arguing that even avant-garde invocations of hieroglyphics depend on narrative form through an examination of Hollis Frampton’s experimental film Zorns Lemma.
