Characterising and justifying sample size sufficiency in interview-based studies
BACKGROUND: Choosing a suitable sample size in qualitative research is an area of conceptual debate and practical uncertainty. That sample size principles, guidelines and tools have been developed to enable researchers to set, and justify the acceptability of, their sample size is an indication that the issue constitutes an important marker of the quality of qualitative research. Nevertheless, research shows that sample size sufficiency reporting…

Unique sleep disorders profile of a population-based sample of 747 Hmong immigrants in Wisconsin
A preliminary analysis of the DNA and diet of the extinct Beothuk
We have used a systematic protocol for extracting, quantitating, sexing and validating ancient human mitochondrial and nuclear DNA of one male and one female Beothuk, a Native American population from Newfoundland, which became extinct ∼180 years ago. They carried mtDNA haplotypes, which fall within haplogroups X and C, consistent with Northeastern Native populations today. In addition we have sexed the male using a novel‐sexing assay and confirm…
Short Sleep Duration Is Associated with Reduced Leptin, Elevated Ghrelin, and Increased Body Mass Index
BACKGROUND: Sleep duration may be an important regulator of body weight and metabolism. An association between short habitual sleep time and increased body mass index (BMI) has been reported in large population samples. The potential role of metabolic hormones in this association is unknown. METHODS AND FINDINGS: Study participants were 1,024 volunteers from the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort Study, a population-based longitudinal study of sleep disorder…
East African ecosystems and their conservation
East Africa is one of the most diverse and interesting tropical area on the planet. It is home not only to the last great megafaunal assemblage, but also to human populations with the highest growth rates. This book draws on the expertise of leading ecologists, each intimately familiar with a particular set of East African ecosystems, to provide the first in-depth and integrated account of the ecology, management, threats, and conservation of the…
Evidence for recent increases in obesity and non‐insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus in a Navajo community
Historic and current biomedical data were used to quantify changes in obesity and non‐insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) over a 30 year period in a Navajo community. Medical charts from an earlier study (1955–1961) provided data on 827 adults. Field‐based methods yielded data from 231 adults during a health survey in 1988. The adjusted prevalence of overweight (body mass index ≥27.8 males, ≥27.3 females) has increased from 18.9% to 43.7%…
The relationship of body fat distribution to non‐insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus in a Navajo community
The relationship between non‐insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and body fat distribution (BFD) as measured by waist/hip circumference (WHR) was investigated in a Navajo community. A sample of 136 females and 89 males, 20 years and older, was recruited using a cluster‐sampling design. Fifty percent of the females and 30.3% of the males are overweight [body mass index (BMI) equivalent of >120% ideal body weight]. Prevalence of NIDDM is 14…
Recent Constitutional Developments in Mozambique
Constitutions remain a puzzle. They are not conscious falsehoods, yet they are clearly not in any simple sense “true”. Nor are they a matter of self-deception on the part of their drafters, being as much intentionally aspirational or programmatic as regulatory. There is some virtue in Finer's characterization of them as “autobiographical” but even this becomes problematic when we speak of constitutions in the ex-colonial world which are often doc…
