Abstract

Calumba (Jateorhiza calumba / J. palmata) and abutua (Cissampelos pareira) are multi-purpose medicinal plants, whose roots have been used in Eastern, Southern, and West-Central Africa for a considerable time. In the early modern era, the Portuguese adapted the roots, which became commercially traded in the Portuguese empire across the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. By the early nineteenth century, the roots were recognized also by the British and North American pharmacopoeias, but there was confusion and secrecy surrounding their origins and quality. Engaging with recent historiography about African and imperial plant medicines, we demonstrate that calumba and abutua had long, dynamic, and mobile continuities on the continent—first in Portuguese imperial settings and then in appropriation by British botanists and colonial officials in East Africa. Exploring African agency in the making of knowledge about calumba and abutua is problematic, however. While in the longue durée, calumba and abutua maintained their value and meanings within Africa, in certain moments, these plants became objects of scientific curiosity and heightened commercial interest in the West.

Abstract

IMPORTANCE Early exposure to complex dietary proteins may increase the risk of type 1 diabetes in children with genetic disease susceptibility. There are no intact proteins in extensively hydrolyzed formulas. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that weaning to an extensively hydrolyzed formula decreases the cumulative incidence of type 1 diabetes in young children. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS An international double-blind randomized clinical trial of 2159 infants with human leukocyte antigen-conferred disease susceptibility and a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes recruited from May 2002 to January 2007 in 78 study centers in 15 countries; 1081 were randomized to be weaned to the extensively hydrolyzed casein formula and 1078 to a conventional formula. The follow-up of the participants ended on February 28, 2017. INTERVENTIONS The participants received either a casein hydrolysate or a conventional adapted cows milk formula supplemented with 20% of the casein hydrolysate. The minimum duration of study formula exposure was 60 days by 6 to 8 months of age. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcome was type 1 diabetes diagnosed according to World Health Organization criteria. Secondary outcomes included age at diabetes diagnosis and safety (adverse events). RESULTS Among 2159 newborn infants (1021 female [47.3%]) who were randomized, 1744 (80.8%) completed the trial. The participants were observed for a median of 11.5 years (quartile [Q] 1-Q3, 10.2-12.8). The absolute risk of type 1 diabetes was 8.4% among those randomized to the casein hydrolysate (n = 91) vs 7.6% among those randomized to the conventional formula (n = 82) (difference, 0.8%[95% CI, -1.6% to 3.2%]). The hazard ratio for type 1 diabetes adjusted for human leukocyte antigen risk group, duration of breastfeeding, duration of study formula consumption, sex, and region while treating study center as a random effect was 1.1 (95% CI, 0.8 to 1.5; P = .46). The median age at diagnosis of type 1 diabetes was similar in the 2 groups (6.0 years [Q1-Q3, 3.1-8.9] vs 5.8 years [Q1-Q3, 2.6-9.1]; difference, 0.2 years [95% CI, -0.9 to 1.2]). Upper respiratory infections were the most common adverse event reported (frequency, 0.48 events/year in the hydrolysate group and 0.50 events/year in the control group). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Among infants at risk for type 1 diabetes, weaning to a hydrolyzed formula compared with a conventional formula did not reduce the cumulative incidence of type 1 diabetes after median follow-up for 11.5 years. These findings do not support a need to revise the dietary recommendations for infants at risk for type 1 diabetes.

6. Muuttuva afrikkalainen parantaminen ja siirtomaavalta:kohtaamiset, vuorovaikutukset ja kamppailut eteläisessä Afrikassa

Author

Hokkanen, M. (Markku)

Abstract

Tiivistelmä Tässä luvussa käsitellään afrikkalaisen parantamisen ja siirtomaavallan suhteita eteläisessä Afrikassa osana laajempaa parantamisen ja kolonialismin historiaa. Teemoina ovat kamppailut vallasta, määrittelyistä ja käytänteistä, afrikkalaisen parannuskulttuurin monimuotoisuus, joustavuus ja hybridisaatio kolonialistisissa konteksteissa, ja lääkinnän, uskonnon sekä magian ongelmallinen rajanveto oikeudessa, kirkoissa ja kolonialistisessa tiedontuotannossa. Maantieteellisesti luku keskittyy erityisesti britti-imperiumiin kuuluneille alueille (Etelä-Afrikasta Sambiaan ja Malawiin). Portugalin imperiumiin kuuluneet Mosambik ja Angola jäävät käsittelyssä vähemmälle. Todettakoon kuitenkin, että varhaisimmat kohtaamiset afrikkalaisten ja eurooppalaisten välillä, samoin kuin ensimmäiset parannukselliset vuorovaikutustilanteet eteläisessä Afrikassa, tapahtuivat juuri Angolan ja Mosambikin rannikoilla, jonne portugalilaiset perustivat pieniä tukikohtia 1500-luvulta alkaen. Monet portugalilaiset hakeutuivat näiden tukikohtien ympäristössä afrikkalaisten parantajien hoidettaviksi.

Abstract

Inspired by the localization, on 15q21.2 of the CYP19A1 gene in the linkage region of speech and language disorders, and a rare translocation in a dyslexic individual that was brought to our attention, we conducted a series of studies on the properties of CYP19A1 as a candidate gene for dyslexia and related conditions. The aromatase enzyme is a member of the cytochrome P450 super family, and it serves several key functions: it catalyzes the conversion of androgens into estrogens; during early mammalian development it controls the differentiation of specific brain areas (e.g. local estrogen synthesis in the hippocampus regulates synaptic plasticity and axonal growth); it is involved in sexual differentiation of the brain; and in songbirds and teleost fishes, it regulates vocalization. Our results suggest that variations in CYP19A1 are associated with dyslexia as a categorical trait and with quantitative measures of language and speech, such as reading, vocabulary, phonological processing and oral motor skills. Variations near the vicinity of its brain promoter region altered transcription factor binding, suggesting a regulatory role in CYP19A1 expression. CYP19A1 expression in human brain correlated with the expression of dyslexia susceptibility genes such as DYX1C1 and ROBO1. Aromatase-deficient mice displayed increased cortical neuronal density and occasional cortical heterotopias, also observed in Robo1-/- mice and human dyslexic brains, respectively. An aromatase inhibitor reduced dendritic growth in cultured rat neurons. From this broad set of evidence, we propose CYP19A1 as a candidate gene for human cognitive functions implicated in reading, speech and language.

Abstract

Introduction: We report head-to-head comparison of the bivalent and quadrivalent HPV vaccine efficacies against immediate precursors of cervical cancer from 15 years' country-wide cancer registry follow-up of phase III trial cohorts and an age-aligned cohort of unvaccinated women., Methods: These individually and/or clusterrandomized cohorts of HPV6/11/16/18- and HPV16/18-vaccinated and unvaccinated women were enrolled, respectively, in 2002, 2004, and 2003/2005. The trial cohorts comprised initially 16- to 17-year-old HPV6/11/16/18-vaccinated FUTURE II (NCT00092534) participants (866) and HPV16/18-vaccinated PATRICIA (NCT00122681) and 012 trial (NCT00169494) participants (2,465), and 16,526 initially 16- to 19-year-old unvaccinated controls. After active 4-year clinical follow-up, passive, country-wide Finnish Cancer Registry (FCR) follow-up for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) was based on consented use of unique personal identifiers and started 6 months after the end of the FUTURE II and PATRICIA trials in 2007 and 2009, and ended at the end of 2019. The follow-up with altogether 229,020 follow-up years was age-aligned to ensure that similarly aged cohorts were passively followed up for 15 years post=vaccination for the intention-to-treat analyses of vaccine efficacy., Results: Overall, we identified 5 and 16 CIN3 (no AIS) cases in the HPV6/11/16/18 and HPV16/18 cohorts, respectively, during the FCR-based follow-up. In the unvaccinated cohort, we identified 281 CIN3 cases, 20 AIS cases, and 13 cases with invasive cervical cancer. Vaccine efficacies against CIN3+ were 68.4% and 64.5% for the quadrivalent and the bivalent vaccines, respectively, with overlapping confidence intervals., Discussion: Long-term follow-up of randomized, initially adolescent HPV-vaccinated and unvaccinated cohorts shows, in this head-to-head setting, that the bivalent and quadrivalent HPV vaccines are equally effective against immediate precursors of cervical cancer., Competing Interests: DA, JD, ML, and JPaa have received grants for their HPV vaccination studies from Merck&Co.

Abstract

Objective: We assessed the relationship between Chlamydia trachomatis infection, duration of oral contraceptive (OC) use and cervical atypia among young adult Finnish women., Design: A longitudinal study., Setting and Participants: Women who were included in this study participated in a community-randomised trial on the effectiveness of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and C. trachomatis screening at ages 18.5 and 22 years in Finland. They completed questionnaires on both visits about sexual behaviours. The cytology test results at age 18.5 and 22 years were also available for those women. The total number of participants in this study at 18.5 years of age were 11 701 and at 22 years of age were 6618., Main Outcome Measure: ORs with 95% CIs using univariable and multivariable logistic regression were used to assess the association between C. trachomatis infection, duration of OC and squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL)., Results: There were 940 cytological SIL cases at the first screening visit and 129 cytological SIL cases at the second screening visit. Among the 22 years old, more than fourfold adjusted risk of SIL was associated with C. trachomatis positivity. The HPV16/18, condom use, smoking and number of sexual partners adjusted joint effect of prolonged OC use and C. trachomatis was significantly increased (OR 4.7, 95% CI 1.7 to 12.8) in the 22-year-old women. This observed joint effect was 1.6 times higher than expected on a multiplicative scale. On additive scale, the observed relative excess risk from interaction was 1.8., Conclusion: The risk of SIL in HPV vaccinated women is significantly increased if they are C. trachomatis positive and have used OC for 5 or more years. The biological basis may be lack of condom facilitated protection against sexually transmitted diseases., Trial Registration Number: NCT00534638., Competing Interests: Competing interests: ML and DA have grants from Merck & Co Inc and GSK for HPV vaccination trials through their employers (Tampere University, ML; Family Federation Finland, DA)., (© Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2022.

Abstract

Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination protects against HPV, a necessary risk factor for cervical cancer. We now report results from population-based follow-up of randomised cohorts that vaccination provides HPV-type-specific protection against invasive cancer., Methods: Individually and/or cluster randomised cohorts of HPV-vaccinated and non-vaccinated women were enrolled in 2002-2005. HPV vaccine cohorts comprised originally 16-17 year-old HPV 16/18-vaccinated PATRICIA (NCT00122681) and 012 trial (NCT00169494) participants (2465) and HPV6/11/16/18-vaccinated FUTURE II (NCT00092534) participants (866). Altogether, 3341 vaccines were followed by the Finnish Cancer Registry in the same way as 16 526 non-HPV-vaccinated controls. The control cohort stemmed from 15 665 originally 18-19 years-old women enrolled in 2003 (6499) or 2005 (9166) and 861 placebo recipients of the FUTURE II trial. The follow-up started 6 months after the clinical trials in 2007 and 2009 and ended in 2019. It was age aligned for the cohorts., Findings: During a follow-up time of up to 11 years, we identified 17 HPV-positive invasive cancer cases (14 cervical cancers, 1 vaginal cancer, 1 vulvar cancer and 1 tongue cancer) in the non-HPV-vaccinated cohorts and no cases in the HPV-vaccinated cohorts. HPV typing of diagnostic tumour blocks found HPV16 in nine cervical cancer cases, HPV18, HPV33 and HPV52 each in two cases and HPV45 in one cervical cancer case. The vaginal, vulvar and tongue cancer cases were, respectively, positive for HPV16, HPV52/66 and HPV213. Intention-to-treat vaccine efficacy against all HPV-positive cancers was 100% (95% CI 2 to 100, p<0.05)., Interpretation: Vaccination is effective against invasive HPV-positive cancer., Trial Registration Number: NCT00122681, Post-results; NCT00169494, Post-results; NCT00092534, Post-results., Competing Interests: Competing interests: We declare that ML, DA, JD and JPaa have received grants from Merck & Co.

Abstract

Introduction: We conducted a community-randomized trial (NCTBLINDED) in Finland to assess gender-neutral and girls-only vaccination strategies with the AS04-adjuvanted human papillomavirus (HPV)-16/18 (AS04-HPV-16/18)vaccine., Methods: Girls and boys (12-15 years) were invited. We randomized 33 communities (1:1:1 ratio): Arm A: 90% of randomly selected girls and boys received AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccine and 10% received hepatitis B vaccine (HBV); Arm B: 90% of randomly selected girls received AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccine, 10% of girls received HBV, and all boys received HBV; Arm C: all participants received HBV. Effectiveness measurements against prevalence of HPV-16/18 cervical infection were estimated in girls at 18.5 years. The main measures were: (1) overall effectiveness comparing Arms A or B, regardless of vaccination status, vs Arm C; (2) total effectiveness comparing AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccinated girls in pooled Arms A/B vs Arm C; (3) indirect effectiveness (herd effect) comparing girls receiving HBV or unvaccinated in Arm A vs Arm C. Co-primary objectives were overall effectiveness following gender-neutral or girls-only vaccination., Results: Of 80,272 adolescents invited, 34,412 were enrolled. Overall effectiveness was 23.8% (95% confidence interval: -19.0, 51.1; P = 0.232) with gender-neutral vaccination. Following girls-only vaccination, overall effectiveness was 49.6% (20.1, 68.2; P = 0.004). Total effectiveness was over 90% regardless of vaccination strategy. No herd effect was found. Immunogenicity of the AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccine was high in both sexes., Conclusions: This study illustrates the difficulty in conducting community randomized trials. It is not plausible that vaccinating boys would reduce overall effectiveness, and the apparent lack of herd effect was unexpected given findings from other studies. This analysis was likely confounded by several factors but confirms the vaccine's high total effectiveness as in clinical trials., (© 2021 The Authors.

Abstract

Background: Despite the steady improvements in survival and operative safety, postoperative complications still remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, less is known on the impact of postoperative complications on health-related quality of life (QoL). The main objective of our study was to investigate the impact of postoperative complications on long-term QoL and survival after CABG surgery., Methods: Data of 508 patients, who underwent isolated CABG was prospectively collected. The RAND-36 Health Survey (RAND-36) was used to evaluate patients' QoL status preoperatively, 1 year and 12 years after the surgery. Predefined postoperative complications were reported during primary and secondary hospital stay. QoL and survival analysis were performed primarily on three patient groups: patients with and without complications and patients with major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE)., Results: In total 205(40%) of 508 patients had at least one postoperative complication and 73 (14%) experienced MACCE. Patients' thirty-day, 1-year and 10-year survival rates were, 99, 98, 84% without complications, 97, 95, 72% with complications, and 90, 89, 64% with MACCE, respectively (log-rank p < 0.001). Patients without complications showed significant(p < 0.05) improvements in seven and patients with complications in five out of eight RAND-36 QoL dimensions. All patient groups showed significant improvements in RAND-36 summary scores compared with preoperative values. Patients with complications and especially with MACCE had more profound decline in their RAND-36 summary scores while patients without complications maintained their health status best., Conclusions: Despite the constant deterioration, both patients with and without complications showed improvements even 12 years after CABG compared with preoperative state. Postoperative complications and especially MACCE were associated with impaired long-term QoL.

Abstract

This manuscript discloses end-of-study safety data of a community-randomized controlled trial in Finland (NCT00534638), assessing the effectiveness of two vaccination strategies (gender-neutral versus females only) using the AS04-adjuvanted human papillomavirus (HPV)-16/18 (AS04-HPV-16/18) vaccine. The total vaccination cohort included 32,175 adolescents aged 12-15 y at vaccination of whom 14,837 received the AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccine and 17,338 received the hepatitis-B virus vaccine (control). Spontaneous reporting of serious adverse events (SAEs) combined with surveillance using nation-wide health registries showed an acceptable safety profile of the AS04-HPV-16/18 vaccine. During the study period (up to 6.5 y), the incidences (per 100,000 person-years) of reported SAEs considered as possibly related to vaccination were 39.1 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 25.3-57.7) and 39.8 (95%CI: 26.8-56.8) in the HPV and control groups, respectively. The most frequently reported new-onset autoimmune diseases (NOADs) were ulcerative colitis (incidence rates of 28.2 and 33.1 per 100,000 person-years in the HPV and control groups, respectively), insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (21.9 and 37.1), Crohn's disease (15.6 and 22.5), celiac disease (15.6 and 21.2), and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (14.1 and 15.9). Of 1,344 pregnancies reported (777 and 567 in the HPV and control groups, respectively), most resulted in elective termination (58.4% and 58.6%), birth of a live infant (32.7% and 32.3%), or in spontaneous abortion (8.0% and 7.9%). No major, registered congenital anomalies were identified. The incidence rates of NOADs and pregnancy outcomes were generally balanced between groups. No specific safety signals were identified in the population-based health registry surveillance. Plain Language Summary What is the context? ● Since first licensure in 2007 of the AS04-adjuvanted human papillomavirus (HPV)-16/18 vaccine ( Cervarix , GSK), large quantity of safety data has been collected and confirmed its safety profile. This study provides further unique, population-based safety data from vaccinated Finnish adolescents monitored via health registries up to 6.5 y of follow-up. What is new? ● The vaccine has shown an acceptable safety profile in girls and boys. The risk of new-onset autoimmune diseases (NOADs) was similar between the HPV vaccine group and the control group and in line with the expectations for the studied population. ● The study supports that safety surveillance via national health registries is in general more sensitive than the conventional safety reporting, notably for monitoring specific chronic diseases, e.g. autoimmune disorders. What is the impact? ● This study highlights the importance of health registries in long-term vaccination safety surveillance. The population-based safety data reported in this study further support the routine administration of the HPV vaccine to girls and boys.

18. Diabetics have Inferior Long-Term Survival and Quality of Life after CABG.

Author

Järvinen O, Hokkanen M, and Huhtala H

Abstract

A prevalence of diabetes is increasing among the patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Data on whether health-related quality of life improves similarly after CABG in diabetics and nondiabetics are limited. We assessed long-term mortality and changes in quality of life (RAND-36 Health Survey) after CABG. Seventy-four of the 508 patients (14.6%) operated on in a single institution had a history of diabetes and were compared with nondiabetics. The RAND-36 Health Survey was used as an indicator of quality of life. Assessments were made preoperatively and repeated 1 and 12 years later. Thirty-day mortality was 2.7 versus 1.6 ( p  = 0.511) in the diabetics and nondiabetics. One- and 10-year survival rates in the diabetics and nondiabetics were 94.6% versus 97.0% ( p  = 0.287) and 63.5% versus 81.6% ( p  < 0.001), respectively. After 1 year, diabetics improved significantly ( p  < 0.005) in seven, and nondiabetics ( p  < 0.001) in all eight RAND-36 dimensions. Despite an ongoing decline in quality of life over the 12-year follow-up, an improvement was maintained in four out of eight dimensions among diabetics and in seven dimensions among nondiabetics. Physical and mental component summary scores on the RAND-36 improved significantly ( p  < 0.001) in both groups after 1 year, and at least slight improvement was maintained during the 12-year follow-up time. Diabetics have inferior long-term survival after CABG as compared with nondiabetics. They gain similar improvement of quality of life in 1 year after surgery, but they have a stronger decline tendency over the years.

Abstract

This community-randomized controlled trial was initiated to assess the overall and herd effects of 2 different human papillomavirus (HPV) immunization strategies in over 80,000 girls and boys aged 12-15 y in 33 communities in Finland (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00534638). Overall, 14,838 adolescents received HPV-16/18 vaccine (2,440 boys and 12,398 girls) and 17,338 received hepatitis-B virus (HBV) vaccine (9,221 boys and 8,117 girls). In an interim analysis, vaccine safety was assessed by active monitoring and surveillance via health registry linkage. Active monitoring showed that the HPV-16/18 vaccine has acceptable safety and reactogenicity in boys. In all study participants, the observed incidences (per 100,000 person-years) of serious adverse events (SAEs) possibly related to vaccination were 54.3 (95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 34.0-82.1) in the HPV-16/18 group and 64.0 (95% CI: 43.2-91.3) in the HBV group. During the follow-up period for this interim analysis, the most common new-onset autoimmune diseases (NOADs; with incidence rate ≥15 per 100,000) in any group based on hospital discharge registry (HILMO) download were ulcerative colitis, juvenile arthritis, celiac disease, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and Crohn's disease. No increased NOAD incidences were observed in HPV-16/18 vaccine recipients compared to HBV vaccine recipients. In both the SAE possibly related- and HILMO-analyses, a lower incidence of IDDM was observed in HPV-16/18 vaccinees compared to HBV vaccinees (relative risks, 0.26 [95% CI: 0.03-1.24] and 0.16 [95% CI: 0.03-0.55], respectively).

Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the long-term effect of perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) on outcomes and health-related quality-of-life (QOL) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)., Methods: Eighty of the 501 patients (16%) fulfilled electrocardiogram or cardiac enzyme criteria for PMI and were compared with patients with no PMI. The RAND-36 Health Survey was used as an indicator of QOL. Assessments were made preoperatively and repeated 1 year and 12 years later., Results: Thirty-day mortality was adversely affected by PMI (6.3 vs 1.0%, P = 0.001). One-year survival rates for PMI and no-PMI patients were 92.5 and 97.6%, 10-year rates being 72.5 and 79.8%. One year after the surgery, PMI patients improved in seven and no-PMI patients in all the eight RAND-36 dimensions. In the 12-year follow-up, the scores showed a general decline tendency. PMI patients still maintained a significant improvement in four and no-PMI patients in seven of eight dimensions when compared with the baseline scores. A highly significant improvement was seen in the RAND-36 mental and physical component summary scores in the no-PMI group 1 year after CABG. PMI patients improved also significantly although the magnitude of change was lower. In the 12-year follow-up, there was a general decline tendency in the scores. Both groups showed similar freedom from anginal symptoms at 12 years., Conclusions: Although PMI has a negative impact on health-related QOL 1 year after CABG, this effect is only minor in the long term. PMI increases 30-day mortality but shows no effect on later mortality.

Abstract

Objectives: Improvement in quality of life (QoL) and survival benefit are the primary objectives of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The profile of patients undergoing isolated CABG has altered towards higher age with more preoperative comorbidities. Thus, the importance of QoL over the quantity of life among elderly patients is getting more emphasized. In this study, our main goal was to evaluate the long-term changes in QoL, overall performance status and symptomatic status after the CABG., Methods: Comprehensive data of 508 patients who underwent isolated CABG in a single institution were prospectively collected. The RAND-36 Health Survey (RAND-36) was used as an indicator of QoL. Karnofsky dependency category was used to evaluate overall performance status, and symptomatic status was assessed using New York Heart Association (NYHA) class. All assessment were made preoperatively and repeated 1 year and 12 years later. The follow-up of the study cohort was complete in 95 and 84% of the alive patients at 1 year and 12 years, respectively. Analysis was based mainly on three age groups: ≤64 years (282 patients), 65-74 years (175 patients) and ≥75 years (51 patients)., Results: Thirty-day, 1-year and 10-year survival rates were 98, 97 and 79%, respectively. Twelve years after the surgery significant improvement (P<0.05) was seen in all but one RAND-36 dimensions of the QoL (general health, P=0.76) as well as in functional capacity (P<0.001) and NYHA class. All age groups showed improvements in RAND-36 physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) scores compared with the preoperative values. The youngest subgroup maintained their physical and mental health status best, whereas older subgroups had more pronounced decreases in their PCS and MCS scores., Conclusions: Despite an ongoing deterioration 12 years after the CABG, there was significant improvement in most dimensions of the QoL and functional capacity in comparison with the preoperative values. The elderly gain less long-term benefit from CABG regarding the QoL and survival.

Abstract

This article examines ideas of morality and health, and connections between moral transgression and disease in both Scottish missionary and Central African thought in the context of the Livingstonia Mission of the Presbyterian Free Church of Scotland in Malawi during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. By concentrating on debates, conflicts and co-operation between missionaries and Africans over the key issues of beer drinking and sexual morality, this article explores the emergence of a new "moral hygiene" among African Christian communities in Northern Malawi.
