Description: Background: The World Health Organisation (WHO) initially recommended F100 formula in the treatment of severe malnutrition. F100 is made with full cream milk powder, sugar, oil and water with added minerals and vitamins. Ready to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) is a highly nutrient dense food enriched with minerals and vitamins, with a similar nutrient profile but greater energy and nutrient density than F100. RUTF has shown to be effective in the treatment of severe and moderate wasting and is associated with an increased recovery rate. In South Africa no studies are available on the recovery rate of children with severe acute malnutrition treated with RUTFs. Aim: To compare the recovery of clinically stable severe acute malnourished children, between the age of 12 and 60 months, treated with either F100 or RUTF as nutrition supplement. Methods: A randomised clinically controlled trial was performed. All children referred to Clairwood hospital with severe acute malnutrition (SAM), defined as a weight for height measurement of <70 percent of the median and/or < -3 SD below the mean WHO reference values or the presence of bilateral oedema were included in this study. Children were stratified according to age and gender and subsequently randomly assigned with randomisation tables to either the RUTF or F100 group. A total of 35 children were included in this study and data from 34 were analysed with 17 in each group. Results: Most children included in this study were between 12 and 18 months with boys in the majority. Both groups had a large percentage of HIV-infected children (70 percent in the RUTF group and 76 percent in the F100 group), with Tuberculosis (TB) co-infection in some of the children. One child died due to HIV related complications. The rate of weight gain was 7.77g/kg/day in the RUTF group and 6.11g/kg/day in the F100 group. There was no statistical significant difference established between groups (p = 0.46). The majority of children recovered within 21 days on the RUTF while the majority of children in the F100 group recovered after 6 weeks. There were no changes in height during the rehabilitation of these children. MUAC changes were observed with 92 percent having a mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) of > 11.5cm after a 6 week intervention with RUTF and F100. Conclusion: RUTF resulted in better rates of recovery and can be used efficiently in rehabilitating children with SAM in a supervised facility setting. These preliminary results also point towards significant potential savings regarding hospitalisation costs since faster recovery has been demonstrated by children in the RUTF group.

Relationship marketing in retail banks: superannuated concept?

Description: All business is based on relationships. The firm only has to make them meaningful for its customers – provided that the customers want this (Grönroos 1994). Relationship marketing concerns the facilitation and managing of the relationships between the business and its customers and was developed as a response to the realisation that businesses were spending vast resources in time and money to attract new customers but very little on retaining existing ones. Relationship marketing is particularly relevant when a customer has alternative service providers to choose from, when the customer makes the selection decision and when there is an ongoing desire or need for a product or service, such as in the banking industry (Morgan & Hunt 1999).

Research and professional work in Gender Based Violence: lessons learned and perceived risks

Description: South Africa has made some strides in recognizing women’s rights in this country. However, women in the rural areas have not benefitted from most of the developments. They are still exposed to cultural practices that are dehumanising. I explore how these practices are linked to gender based violence. There are also well-articulated policy frameworks and laws aimed at the protection of women. However, gender-based violence (GBV) remains very high in the country and can lead to death. GBV has been understood from a western perspective with limited attention to the traditional perspective. Perhaps the controversies in the legal and policy framework are a reflection of an application of a Western perspective on cultural African beliefs. In this lecture, I present these contrasting views in the legal framework. The lecture aims to advance an understanding of African customs linked to GBV. It is a timely lecture in view of the drive towards Afrocentric psychology. The available literature has focused extensively on cultural aspects related to mental illness and therapy with a limited focus on cultural aspects linked to GBV. Finally, interventions that take cognisance of the dynamic nature of cultural beliefs and practices are highlighted. In conclusion, it is indicated that we must choose to adhere to cultural practices that are not discriminating against women.

Description: I seek to achieve three objectives in my lecture: first I attempt an outline of the evolution of economic thought regarding progress from the medieval period to contemporary times. Following the discussion of the mainstream theories of economic growth I then review the associated empirical literature. I also consider a brief case study on two successful countries before addressing the question whether resource nationalism matter in determining economic development. Lastly, I provide some policy recommendations for economic development in South Africa and other resource rich countries on the continent.

Resource utilization and reproduction of the hermit crab Clibanarius virescens (Crustacea: Decapoda : Anomura)

Description: Clibanarius virescens (Krauss) is a common and abundant hermit crab along the East coast of South Africa. Despite this, its biology is poorly known, both in South Africa and throughout the rest of its range in the West Indo-Pacific region. This study focuses on the descriptive analysis of the shell resource used by C. virescens and of the effects of this resource on crab populations. The underlying hypothesis of the study is that biogeographically imposed gradients in the morphology of intertidal gastropod shells used by hermit crabs affect hermit crab population parameters. The gradient of potential change in the shell resource was captured by sampling at 12 localities, encompassing the range of C. virescens in South Africa. Seasonal changes in shell use, population structure and reproduction at a single locality (Cape Recife) were recorded over a period of 13 months. The breeding season of C. virescens at the southern extreme of its range extended from December to June. The population structure shows some seasonal change, but no clear trends emerge. The shell resource changed substantially in nature over the region studied. Based on shell use, localities clustered into separate southern and northern groups with a break occurring between Dwesa and Coffee Bay. Southern localities were characterised by use of Burnupena cincta, B. lagenaria and B. pubescens. Northern localities were characterised by the use of Morula granulata, M. nodosa and Peristernia forskalii. Intertidal shells used by C. virescens show fewer adaptations to predation in southern localities than shells from northern localities. Southern shells ii are relatively large, light and have wider apertures than those from northern localities which are generally smaller, heavier and have decreased aperture widths. Shell parameters affect population size-distributions as southern crabs were larger and heavier than northern crabs. C. virescens show sexual size dimorphism in which male crabs uniformly dominate the larger size classes at all localities. Differences in the sex ratio between males and females show more variable patterns. Most southern localities show no difference in the number of male and female crabs, but most northern localities show a skewed sex ratio in favour of females. Shell use and population size distributions of females affect reproductive output. Southern females produced significantly larger clutches than northern females. Reproductive output was related to crab mass and shell volume. Shell use patterns conform to the biogeographical regions in the range of the study and have a clear effect on both the population size distributions and reproductive output of Clibanarius virescens.
