“…Immunosenescence is characterized by the inability to mount effective [protective] humoral and cellular immune responses against a pathogen or vaccine, as well as a systemic low-grade inflammatory state [termed "inflammaging"], which contributes to the dysregulation of several components of " the innate and adaptive immune systems [87]. Much can be achieved, "when the science, engineering and health communities embrace human rights as an area suitable for and deserving of robust inquiry, and become an influential voice in the defense of human rights [88].…”

Impeccable Metabolic Maneuvers Upbring Natural Immunity To You [IMMUNITY]. Homeostatic competence of human body is an output of meticulous and interdependent/integrated/impeccable metabolic functions to resist or overcome diseases and facilitate a lengthy lifespan along the healthy ageing trajectory. Principles of homeostasis are seldom employed in the clinical applications. Perhaps this has led to almost an irreparable derailment of ethics and core competence of medical profession. Ivan Dominic Illich emphasized his criticisms on iatrogenesis and argued that modern medicine had hubristically taken on a mission to eradicate pain, sickness, even death but expropriated the autonomous power of humans to cope with their ailments. It is also quite obvious that the medical profession has failed to learn about ‘healthy individuals’ elaborately. Healthy individuals possess quintessential epigenetic efficiency and homeostatic competence built through several years of disciplined lifestyle, and especially their fitness characteristics are incomparably superior to individuals who never or rarely display propensity to improve their health standards. The disastrous perception of Immunology that ‘Best Homeostasis’ and ‘Worst Allostasis’ are same, hence all the individuals regardless of their health status are equally a potential source of disease transmission during an infectious disease outbreak, has caused severe disruption in various aspects of human life across the globe. Even the healthiest/fittest athletes and outstanding exercisers could asymptomatically transmit an infection to unhealthy people [who led an unhealthy lifestyle] whose disease could be anywhere in the allostasis spectrum ranging from early-stage co-morbidities to severe functional deterioration? Under the aegis of homeostasis and non-specific antibodies [Secretory IgA], a long-lasting Natural Immunity [NI] should be possible excluding the need of ‘specific antibodies’. Expanded Trained Immunity [ETI] proposed by Cassone has been found not only in innate immune system but also in nonimmune cells [both cells of hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic origin] associated with immunological memories from previous microbial encounters. Interesting discoveries about NI and ETI could emerge if they are linked with homeostasis and allostasis to develop objective immunologic tests to differentiate the healthy and unhealthy individuals, and enhance the clarity of immunology. Exercises are strongly linked to immunity; thus, measurements of exercise performance standards could accurately reveal the status of NI of the individuals if exercise performance data are systematically interpreted and correlated with immunologic function. Exercise performance data can be gathered using easily accessible non-invasive inexpensive tools. From the perspectives of homeostasis, we may not have distinct departments in the body to curb/defeat immunological or other non-immunological diseases, but any disease could be a threat to recovery to pre-existing conditions or even survival, if the homeostatic functions are impaired by iatrogenesis.

“…Through TRAC certification, repositories demonstrate their trustworthiness regarding the long-term preservation of digital information. In order to do so, they show documentary evidence of risk assessment and mitigation efforts, which is reviewed by external auditors (Frank, 2022). The ISO 16363 standard states:A trustworthy digital repository will understand threats to and risks within its systems.…”

“…TRAC was a joint effort by CRL, the Research Libraries Group (RLG), the National Archives and Records administration (NARA), and the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) (Yakel, 2007) Through TRAC certification, repositories demonstrate their trustworthiness regarding the long-term preservation of digital information. In order to do so, they show documentary evidence of risk assessment and mitigation efforts, which is reviewed by external auditors (Frank, 2022). The ISO 16363 standard states:…”

PurposeThis article explores the tension between the concept of a Designated Community (DC) as a foundational element in Trustworthy Digital Repository (TDR) certification and curators' uncertainty about how to interpret and apply this concept in practice.Design/methodology/approachThis research employs a qualitative research design involving in-depth semi-structured interviews with stakeholders in the Trustworthy Digital Repository Audit and Certification (TRAC) process.FindingsThe authors' findings indicate that stakeholders in the audit and certification process viewed their uncertainty about how to apply the concept of a DC in the context of an audit as a source of risk for digital repositories and the repositories' collections.Originality/valueThis article brings new insights to digital preservation by applying social theories of risk to trustworthy digital repository audit and certification processes, with an emphasis on the concept of DC.

“…Finance has been identified as one of the major risks affecting digital preservation due to uncertainty about funding sources and the lack of stable long-term funding. 61 The study found the IRs had currently invested in hardware and software, with all three IRs utilizing the dSPACE platform. Rosa et al, 62 described dSPACE as software created with digital preservation in mind that allows repositories to perform all the functions outlined in the OAIS reference model.…”

Institutional repositories (IRs) have a leading role in providing long-term access to the research output of universities. This study assessed the capabilities of institutional repositories in Kenya to support long-term preservation of digital content by reviewing digital preservation policies and plans. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews from 19 respondents drawn from three public universities that were identified by their registration in OpenDOAR, ROARMAP and the number of items in their repositories. Additional data was acquired through analysis of documents such as open access policies and mandates, as well as institutional websites. Findings revealed that the organizations were poorly prepared to support long-term digital preservation. Policies were inadequate and plans to support the implementation of the policies were lacking. The study concluded that although the IRs were to undertake digital preservation, they lacked clearly defined actions from plans and policy. This article offers recommendations, including identifying digital preservation goals that will guide policy formulation and multi-stakeholder involvement in the policy-making process. Effort should also be made to create awareness of the relationship between digital content selection and its successful long-term preservation.
