This indicates that the mechanisms which allow estuarine dependent larvae to locate and enter estuaries are not related to fresh water inflow. In conclusion, this study has demonstrated that despite their small size relative to European and North American systems, South African permanently open and temporarily open/closed estuaries also influence biological activity within the adjacent nearshore marine environment.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 19:04:47 SAST ]]> An analysis of community participation in local government integrated development planning with reference to King Sabata Dalindyebo local municipality https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:8237 Wed 12 May 2021 18:59:39 SAST ]]> An investigation of the efficacy of the Office of the Auditor-General in ensuring public financial accountability in the Gauteng Province https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11645 Wed 12 May 2021 18:54:51 SAST ]]> Academic literacy right from the start?: a critical realist study of the way university literacy is constructed at a Gulf university https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1323 Wed 12 May 2021 18:52:37 SAST ]]> A critical analysis of organizational communication in South African Port Operations, Port Elizabeth Division https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:8412 Wed 12 May 2021 18:45:29 SAST ]]> A comparison of the vulcanisation of Polyisoprene by a range of Thiuram Diulfides https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10399 Wed 12 May 2021 18:39:36 SAST ]]> An exploratory investigation of the factors that influence the retention of knowledge workers at the National Energy Regulator of South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:771 Wed 12 May 2021 18:32:22 SAST ]]> "Glory is temporary, brain injury may be forever" : a neuropsychological study on the cumulative effects of sports-related concussive brain injury amongst Grade 12 school boy athletes https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3104 0.05), with the Contact sport groups having markedly higher incidences of concussion than controls (p < 0.000). Measures included the ImPACT Verbal and Visual Memory, Visuomotor Speed and Reaction Time Composites, Digit Symbol Substitution and Digit Symbol Incidental Recall (immediate and delayed), the ImPACT Symptom Scale and a Post-concussion Symptom (PCS) questionnaire. Independent t-tests on cognitive measures at pre-and post-season revealed a predominant trend of Contact and 2+ Concussion groups performing worse, although only ImPACT Reaction Time at pre-season reached significance (p = 0.014). PCS comparisons revealed an overwhelming tendency of enhanced symptoms for Contact and 2+ Concussion groups with total scores being significantly different in most instances at pre-and post-season. Fatigue and aggression were the symptoms most pervasively high for the Contact and 2+ Concussion groups. Dependent t-test analyses at pre- versus post-season, revealed significant practice effects for the Contact group, not in evidence for controls on ImPACT Visual Motor Speed and Digit Symbol Incidental Recall-Delayed. Overall the results imply the possible presence of lingering neurocognitive and symptomatic concussion sequelae amongst South African final year high school participants of a contact sport. The indications gain potency when understood against the background of (i) Brain Reserve Capacity threshold theory, and (ii) the known risk of Type II error in group MTBI research, that might result in under-emphasis of subtle effects and miscalculation of cost-benefit risks. Clinical implications, and the need for prospective case-based research to ratify the results of this predominantly cross-sectional study, are discussed.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 18:30:18 SAST ]]> An
