    • Heart rate variability as an indicator of COVID-19 induced myocardial injury a retrospective cohort study
    Authors: Hani, Taman; Nabil, Mageed; Mohamed, Elmorsy;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    Heart rate variability (HRV) is a valuable indicator of autonomic nervous system integrity and can be a prognostic tool of COVID-19 induced myocardial affection. This study aimed to compare HRV indices between patients who developed myocardial injury and those without myocardial injury in COVID-19 patients who were admitted to intensive care unit (ICU).
    • The Coloniality of Contemporary Human Rights Discourses on ‘Honour’ in and Around the United Nations
    Authors: Cetinkaya, Hasret;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    In United Nations (UN) human rights reporting and analysis, ‘honour’ has been systematically conflated with ‘honour-related violence’ (HRV). However, honour and HRV are not the same thing. In this article I examine contemporary UN human rights discourses around honour. I argue that these discourses are underpinned by racialised and orientalist-colonial imaginaries which falsely categorise people and places as either having or not having honour. This conflation presents honour as a cultural problem attributed to racialised communities mostly associated with the Muslim World. Adopting a critical post- and de-colonial perspective, I undertake a discourse analysis of UN human rights documents to expose orientalist tropes that reproduce epistemic and material violence against honour.
