L’anacardier (Anacardium occidentale L.), importante culture de rente, est confrontée à la menace de nombreux pathogènes qui entravent sa productivité au Cameroun. Dès lors, cette étude se propose de déterminer le potentiel d’une lutte biologique à base d’extraits végétaux sur les champignons pathogènes identifiés sur des fruits prélevés dans le bassin de la Benoué. Pour atteindre ces objectifs, l’identification des agents pathogènes des fruits, des tests de pathogénicité et l’évaluation de l’effet antifongique in vitro et in vivo des extraits de piments et de neem ont été effectués. Les résultats ont montré que ces fruits abritent une diversité d’espèces fongiques dont les principales sont Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Oïdium anacardii, Fusarium solani, Aspergillus niger et Phytophthora sp. Les tests de pathogénicité ont produit les symptômes des maladies observées sur le terrain. L’huile de neem et les extrait de piment ont inhibé totalement la croissance de C. gloeosporioides, O. anacardii et A. niger aux doses respectives de 7,5% v/v et 75 mg/ml. Cependant, l'huile de neem s'est avérée plus efficace. Ces résultats représentent des sources d'information précieuses pour l’implémentation d'une stratégie de lutte intégrée contre les agents pathogènes de l’anacardier à l’origine de la baisse de sa productivité, affectant ainsi son potentiel économique.

English Title: Antifungal effect of two plant extracts on pathogens identified on fruits of Cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale L.) in North Cameroon

The Cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale L.), an important cash crop, is challenged by the proliferation of pathogens that affect its productivity in Cameroon. Therefore, this study aims to determine the potential of a biological control based on plant extracts on pathogenic fungi identified on fruits collected in the Benoué basin. To achieve these objectives, identification of fruit pathogens, pathogenicity tests and evaluation of the in vitro and in vivo antifungal effect of chilli and neem extracts were carried out. The results showed that these fruits harbour a diversity of fungal species, of which the main ones are Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Oïdium anacardii, Fusarium solani, Aspergillus niger and Phytophthora sp. The pathogenicity tests have generated the symptoms of the diseases observed in the field. Neem oil and chilli extracts completely inhibited the growth of C. gloeosporioides, O. anacardii and A. niger at doses of 7.5% v/v and 75 mg/ml respectively. However, neem oil proved to be more effective. These results represent valuable sources of information for the implementation of an integrated pest management strategy against cashew pathogens that impede the productivity of the tree, thereby affecting its economic potential.

BackgroundBurns in pregnancy is often associated with high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality especially when the total burn surface area (TBSA) involved is high. This study aims to review management outcome of cases of burns in pregnancy at Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital Abakaliki (AE-FUTHA).MethodsA five year retrospective study of all pregnant women that presented at AE-FUTHA with burn injury between April 2014 and March 2019. Information was collected from the medical records using a proforma and analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics version 20.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) using descriptive statistics.ResultsA total of 222 cases of burns were managed but only 8 were pregnant, giving an incidence of 3.6%. The commonest causes were flame (62.5%), scald (25%) and friction (12.5%) occurring mostly during the harmattan season. The median age of participants was 25-34 years. The burns affected 12.5% of the patients in the first trimester and 62.5% and 25% in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters respectively. Most patients (62.5%) had superficial burns while 25% had other associated injuries in addition to burns. About 87.5% had term spontaneous vaginal delivery. There was no maternal death but, there was an early neonatal death.ConclusionThe good outcome observed in this study with a 100% survival, could be explained by inter-disciplinary management approach given, even as most cases were minor degrees of burns. Early involvement of obstetricians in all burns affecting pregnant women is advised especially in burn centres where obstetricians are hardly in the employ.
Scottish Romanticism
Authors: Pittock Murray
Published: September 2021

What is a national Romanticism, and what in particular is Scottish Romanticism? In answering these questions, this essay identifies five of the central underpinning features of national cultures. It then goes on to explain how the strength of a national Romanticism in Scotland derives from them, before assessing the importance of the key writers of the Romantic movement in Scotland in terms of this framework and in the context of their relationship to Romanticism in its wider context.
Romantic Hellenism
Authors: Wagner Corinna
Published: September 2021

For European, American, and British Romantic writers, thinkers, artists and architects, the cultural greatness of the West had its origins in classical Greece and Rome. In particular, the ‘Golden Age’ of Greece fired the imaginations of the late Romantic writers. Simultaneously a place, a time, an idea, and a narrative, the classical world was integral to Romantic self-fashioning. Ancient Greece was uniquely placed, geographically, historically and imaginatively, at the juncture between West and East, between ancient civilization and modernity, and between myth and historical fact. This ambiguous position meant that Romantic Hellenists could adopt the ancient past and reimagine it to support a number of often conflicting political, social and cultural viewpoints.
Romantic Period Laboring-Class Poetry
Authors: Keegan Bridget
Published: September 2021

This essay surveys significant developments in laboring-class poetry in the Romantic period, most notably the recognition of a self-aware tradition, comprising hundreds of poets, many of whom have been recovered in the last 30 years. Scholars have shifted their approach to the study of laboring-class poets to assert their artistic accomplishments and vital contributions to key characteristics and themes of Romanticism, including the focus on nature, agricultural change, and regional culture, simplicity in style, and experimentation with the ballad form. How the poets were published underwent changes in the period, as many struggled with patrons and found new venues for their work due to the growth of newspapers and periodicals. The current digitization of the archive as well as digital humanities methodologies have opened up the study of the tradition, making possible new discoveries and new understandings of its reach and importance.
British Politics 1789–1832
Authors: Worrall David
Published: September 2021

The essay surveys British political culture, principally from a domestic perspective, focussing on perceptions of internal and external threat and responses to those conditions. The continuing context of war (1793–1815) is emphasised. The suppression of free speech, a condition particularly relevant to writing, is traced. The role of the major competing political ideological positions is also described, including Burke, Paine, Malthus and Spence. Changes in the post-war culture of theatre-going is discussed, indicating how playhouses reflected changing popular sentiment.
‘Second Generation’ Romantic Poets
Authors: Crook Nora
Published: September 2021

A new generation of poets flourishes during the politically turbulent years,
1810–1824. The chief names are Byron, Shelley, and Keats. They are associated with
rebellion, solitary genius, lyricism and dying young, but this is an
oversimplification. More recent perspectives emphasize social networks, with the
journalist and poet Leigh Hunt a key figure. That the second generation can be
represented by three names is challenged by the diversity of poets writing during
this period, and the variousness of the poetry written. Poetry was at the centre of
cultural life.
African-British Literature
Authors: Carey Brycchan
Published: September 2021

Thousands of Africans lived in Romantic-era Britain, including Ignatius Sancho,
Olaudah Equiano, and Mary Prince, who between them initiated the tradition of Black
British writing. Each had experienced slavery as a child; each achieved their
freedom, and each wrote the story of their lives: Sancho’s Letters
were the bestseller of 1782, proving to fashionable London society that Africans
were equally capable as Europeans. Equiano’s 1789 Interesting
Narrative was part of the movement to abolish the slave trade, while
Prince was the first African woman to tell her life story in England in her 1831
History of Mary Prince.
Romanticism and Medicine
Authors: Dickson Leigh Wetherall
Published: September 2021

Is there such a thing as Romantic medicine? The literary classification of Romanticism and the practice of medicine might initially appear to be incompatible; the former being a cultural form that encompasses ideas about originality, imagination and experience, the latter concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease. However, the medical historian Roy Porter suggests that while there was little development in the practice of medicine in Britain during the Romantic period (‘those years [did not] bring a revolution in medicine and in health’ –1999, 170) there was a transformation in the understanding of the body. Although the Romantic era neither transformed the practice of medicine nor drastically altered life expectancy, addressing ‘the experience of the body and of suffering was an essential component in that journey into the self that constitutes … the Romantic interlude’ (ibid., 177). Porter suggests that there was a shift from an earlier view of the body as an ahistorical entity responding to the universal laws of physics to one which detected a symbiotic relationship between the self, society and sickness. The body and its suffering can be read as socially constructed entities, the consideration of which intersects with the larger cultural concerns of Romanticism such as personal and political liberty, the conflict between that which is natural and that which is socially constructed, and the distinction between individual solitude and communal responsibility.
Travel and Empire
Authors: Bolton Carol
Published: September 2021

This essay demonstrates the relationship between Romantic-period travel in its various forms, and the social and political contexts that emerged from it. It considers travel for educational and recreational purposes, to increase scientific and cultural knowledge, and to colonise new territories and acquire economic or administrative control of land abroad. While recognising the impact of travel on a wide variety of locations through recent postcolonial studies (that include China, South America, the Arctic, and Antarctic) the regions of Europe, Africa, North America, Australasia, and India are focused on here as the most represented areas in travel writing and the imaginative literature it inspired. The Romantic period was an important watershed in the history of empire, before more rigid structures of imperial policy were implemented in the later nineteenth century. This provided a discursive space in which discussion of British responsibilities abroad, as well as counter-imperial arguments, could come to the fore. Thus, the interesting intersections between Romantic formulations of the world and socio-political interventions in these global contexts can be understood through the writings of the period.

PARAMETRIC IDENTIFICATION OF ARC-SUPPRESSION REACTOR IN THE BASIS OF INSTANTANEOUS VALUES
Authors: Dementiy Yuri A. , Nikolaev Kirill P. , Galimzyanov Rustem R.
Published: September 2021

Single-phase earth faults occur in 6–35 kV distribution networks. One of the devices designed to eliminate earth faults is the arc suppression reactor. The inductance of the reactor is set in resonance with the capacitance of the network, which results in the suppression of the capacitive component of the current.

A method of determining the inductance of a reactor using instantaneous values of current and voltage is proposed. A differential equation linking the measured quantities is derived. The equation is written for two moments of time, and a system from which the expression for the reactor inductance is derived. Numerical approximation of the derivatives by means of the asymmetric difference derivative was carried out. The mathematical model of the reactor was composed. The influence of the asymmetry coefficient and the main parameters of the considered transients on the accuracy of determining the reactor inductance was analyzed.

The influence of noise on the accuracy of determining the inductance of the reactor was considered. The influence of the main parameters of the considered transients on the stability of the method to noise is analyzed. The confidence intervals of the calculated inductance for different values of relative noise are constructed.

An upgraded method for determining the detuning based on the solution of an overdetermined system of equations is proposed. The robustness of the upgraded method to the influence of noise was analyzed. The modernized method has shown to be more robust to the influence of noise in comparison with the method based on solving a system consisting of equations written for two moments of time.

A test of the methods on a real oscillogram of current and voltage is described. Recommendations on the practical application of the developed methods are offered. The upgraded method is appropriate when there is a high influence of noise and no limitations on the computing power of devices, the method of calculating the inductance by two readings should be used in all other cases.
IMPROVED DESIGN TECHNIQUE FOR CONDUCTING PARTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTACTORS
Authors: Ivanov Ivan P. , Samuilov Dmitriy V. , Svintsov Gennadiy P. , Fedimirov Alexey A. , Shpakov Evgeniy V.
Published: September 2021

The existing design techniques for the conductive parts of the main circuit of electromagnetic contactors are based on two assumptions: the infinite length of the conductor and the absence of its heating, which is determined by the contact resistance. This can lead to significant errors in the design of conductors of finite length, primarily in the design of conductive parts with contact bridges, which contain almost all modern electromagnetic contactors. For a more efficient determination of the geometric parameters of the conductive parts, it is proposed to use an improved technique without the above assumptions. The technique uses a model of a contact formed by overlapping the ends of two rectangular conductors and containing a contact piece as a design one. A key feature of the technique is the use in the calculations of the temperature distribution constant along the length of the conductor, introduced for the first time, which determines the nature of the change in its heating temperature. The main stages of calculation and an example of determining the geometric dimensions of the conductive parts by this method for ABB contactors for different rated currents are given.

MOBILIDADE TRANSFRONTEIRIÇA ENTRE PATO BRAGADO E NUEVA ESPERANZA NA FRONTEIRA BRASIL-PARAGUAY (1982)
Authors: KAMMER Aline , FERRARI Maristela
Published: September 2021

Historicamente os municípios de Pato Bragado (Paraná) e Nueva Esperanza- (Dept. de Canindeyú) na zona de fronteira do Brasil com o Paraguai mantinham fracas interações transfronteiriças, pois o rio Paraná, limite internacional, dificultava a travessia de um país ao outro. Mas, a formação do reservatório da hidrelétrica de Itaipu binacional (1982) favoreceu a mobilidade entre os dois lados do limite internacional e por consequência o desenvolvimento de inúmeras interações transfronteiriças. Este trabalho analisa os fatores que contribuíram para a crescente mobilidade transfronteiriça no segmento da zona de fronteira brasileiro-paraguaia formada pelos municípios de Pato Bragado (Paraná- BR) e Nueva Esperanza- (Canindeyú - PY). Neste sentido, pode-se questionar: a mobilidade transfronteiriça entre os habitantes é cotidiana ou esporádica? Como os Estados nacionais regulam ali os fluxos transfronteiriços? Para atingir o objetivo proposto, o método de pesquisa aqui adotado foi o qualitativo. A metodologia consistiu em leituras teóricas sobre, zona de fronteira, redes e fluxos e pesquisa de campo com moradores de Pato Bragado e Nueva Esperanza.
