Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Introduction
Atopic dermatitis (AD), or atopic eczema, is a common,
chronic inflammatory disease. Onset is usually in early
childhood. The disease progresses with a chronic
recurrent course before disappearing some time before
puberty. This article presents an update of the different
forms of clinical presentation for AD in adults along with a
proposed diagnostic approach, as new treatments will
appear in the near future and many patients will not be
able to benefit from them unless they are properly
diagnosed.
3. DEFINITIONS
According to the guidelines of the American Academy of
Dermatology (AAD), AD is a chronic, pruritic, inflammatory
skin disease that occurs most frequently in children but that
can also affect adults.
The course of the disease is relapsing, and it is frequently
associated with elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin E
(IgE), individual or family history of type I allergies, allergic
rhinitis, and asthma.
4. EPIDEMIOLOGY
Prevalence in children is estimated at 15% to 30%, while in
adults estimates range from 0.3% to 14.3%
While considerably lower in the elderly (>65 years), the percentage of
cases in this age group is increasing in industrialized countries
With regard to sex, AD in adults occurs predominantly in
women, although this trend is reversed in individuals aged
over 65, when more men are diagnosed.
5. Clinical Presentation of AD in
Adults
Chronic, persisten form Relapsing course Adult – Onset AD
The chronic, persistent form
of adult AD includes patients
who have had AD since
childhood. About 20%-30%
of childhood cases persist
into adulthood, and these
constitute the best-
recognized group of patients
with adult AD.
The relapsing form
occurs in about 12.2%
of patients with
childhood AD, whose
disease apparently
resolves before or
during adolescence
and then recurs in
adulthood.
An estimated 18.5% of all
cases of AD first appear in
adulthood, usually in
individuals aged 20 to 40 years
but also in elderly patients,
where clinicians rarely suspect
AD.
The course of AD is generally intermittent, with phases of latency and exacerbation.
Clinical features may differ depending on the patient’s age and on whether the
disease is acute or chronic. Distinguished 3 broad clinical patterns:
Clinical
Patterns
6. The characteristic presentation of AD in adults is
generally inflammatory eczema with areas of lichenification
(lichenified / exudative eczematous pattern).
Although this form is predominantly flexural, only about 1
0% of the cases are purely flexal. Other areas are also involved, es
pecially theface (48%) and hands (46%), followed by the extensor s
urfaces of the limbs (33%) and trunk (30%). Approximately 10% of
patients do not present a flexural pattern at all. It is important to hig
hlight that it is not possible to differentiate extrinsic and intrinsic AD
based only on the clinical presentation of the lesions.

Adults

8. Head-and-neck eczema
The involvement of the
face and neck, whether
accompanied or not by
lesions in the
antecubital and popliteal
fossa, is probably the
most characteristic form
of adult AD, and it is
also known as head-
and-neck dermatitis.
9. Hand eczema
The association between AD and hand eczema is well documented. Authors estimate that
somewhere between a third and half of all patients with hand eczema have atopy, while the
hands are involved in 60%-70% of people diagnosed with
AD Thus, the presence of chronic hand eczema in adults should always raise the suspicion of
adult AD. The clinical presentation of atopic chronic hand eczema is not always the same. We
can distinguish at least 3 morphological clinical forms: acute relapsing dyshidrotic
eczema (pompholyx), a chronic form of irritant contact dermatitis, and chronic dry
Fingertip dermatitis.
10. Generalized eczema
Severe AD is usually diffuse, mainly affecting the face, neck, hands, and flexures,although
all regionsof the body can be affected to some degre. We can distinguish between
2 clinical patterns—inflammatory versus lichenoid—which help us to make therapeutic
decisions. Patients presenting with the inflammatory pattern are “red” in appearance. The
skin shows diffuse erythema, with predominantly acute, exudative, and crusted eczematous
lesions, which are sometimes accompanied by profuse scaling. The other pattern is
characterized by lichenification, excoriations, crusts, and xerosis. It gives the impression of
chronicity, and its maximum expression would be lichenoid erythroderma.
11. Nummular eczema
Nummular eczema is very
common, at least in Chinese
and Indian adults with AD
(about 17%). The lesions are
round, inflamed sores that are
located most often on the lower
limbs. They tend to be quite
refractory to treatment. This
morphological variant is not
specific to AD, as it also occurs
in people with allergic contact
eczema due to fragrances or
preservatives contained in
hygiene products.
12. Erythroderma
Over 90% of the skin surface is
red, dry, and lichenified.
Intense pruritus is
accompanied by general
discomfort, asthenia, shivering,
and signs of dehydration.
Peripheral “dermopathic”
adenopathies can be
observed. Erythroderma is
frequent in the elderly.
13. Nodular Prurigo
It usually appears at 40-50 years of age and consists of highly pruriginous papules
and lumps, generally on the shoulder girdle and arms. The lumps
mayappear somewhat artificial and give the impression that they were provoked
intentionally. Generalized pruriginous lesions are not uncommon and generally
require a biopsy to exclude other serious diseases, including cutaneous
lymphomas.
14. Psoriasiform Dermatitis
Some patients present with diffuse, psoriasiform
cutaneous lesions on the trunk and limbs, with
involvement of the flexures. It is difficult to
determine whether these lesions are eczema,
eczematized psoriasis, or both. At times, the
progress and presence of psoriatic lesions in
typical areas such as the elbows, knees, nails,
or scalp enable us to reach a diagnosis. The
association between the 2 conditions has been
described as psoriasis-eczema overlap or
eczematous psoriasis. Typically,
people with psoriasis – eczema overlap have
both flexural eczema and psoriatic lesions, and
although no thick plaques are present, patients
experience more intense itching than in isolated
psoriasis.
17. Conclusions
The incidence of AD is increasing steadily, especially in
industrialized countries. The diagnostic criteria for this disease
are basically clinical, and diagnosis is relatively easy in
children with eczema.
Diagnosis is often a challenge owing to the absence
of specific or adapted criteria for AD in the adult population.
Thus, it is a diagnosis of exclusion that we can only reach
after performing patch testing to rule out allergic contact
dermatitis and/or cutaneous biopsy to rule out other diseases
(eg, cutaneous lymphoma, dermatitis herpetiformis).
