Interdisciplinaridade e contextualização nos projetos políticos pedagógicos em cursos de formação inicial de professores de química
Authors: Targino de Moura Francisco Marconcio , E Sá Carneiro Claudia Christina Bravo
Published: November 2016

Contextualizar o conhecimento de forma interdisciplinar passou a ser uma questão de ordem no ensino de química para o ensino médio, um requisito a ser contemplado na formação do professor frente ás exigências atuais. Suscitamos como problemática desse estudo investigar como as perspectivas da contextualização e interdisciplinaridade foram incorporadas ao Projeto Político Pedagógico dos Cursos de Licenciatura em Química de algumas universidades. Nossos objetivos nessa pesquisa foram: analisar o conteúdo dos documentos institucionais que orientam o currículo dos cursos de química quanto à presença da contextualização e interdisciplinaridade e investigar que concepção de contextualização e interdisciplinaridade aparece nos Projetos Políticos Pedagógicos de alguns cursos de química. Escolheu-se como metodologia a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, por ser o melhor caminho para atingirmos os objetivos. Consideramos que a interdisciplinaridade e a contextualização presentes na reforma do Ensino Médio Brasileiro não atingiram com segurança conceitual e epistemológica a formação de professores de química.Palavras-chave: Interdisciplinaridade, Contextualização, Formação de Professores.
Emprendimiento, complejidad y representaciones: Entre acción, proyección e interacción
Authors: Morua Juan , Estrada Salvador , Quintero Yazmín
Published: November 2016

La complexité des marchés tend à augmenter dû à différentes conditions, y compris : le dynamisme des échanges dans le marché, les changements des préférences des consommateurs, les nouvelles technologies, l’augmentation de l’offre, entre autres. Cette complexité oblige aux entrepreneurs, dans la plupart de cas, à construire des représentations mentales pour se projeter dans le futur, à créer une interface entre l’environnement et leur interprétation du monde, problématiser, anticiper et agir. La recherche sur l’entrepreneuriat a été dominée pour deux approches : l’exogène et l’endogène, tous les deux en considérant l’environnement en tant que statique et certain, en motivant l’élaboration d’un business plan. En conséquence ces approches ont pu les qualifier de limitées face à la complexité. En prenant une approche cognitive de l’entrepreneuriat, dans cette communication nous nous concentrons sur la façon dans lequel l’entrepreneur fait des exercices cognitifs dans l’action pour comprendre et agir face au dynamisme du marché et des organisations, en se posant au même temps des questions sur la réalité qui l’entoure. Notre objective est de construire un modèle pour comprendre l’entrepreneuriat à partir d’une approche cognitive dans des situations complexes.
La prospective au service de l’élu entrepreneur
Authors: Nobile Didier , Husson Julien
Published: November 2016

Au travers d’une démarche de recherche intervention, nous avons souhaité nous intéresser à une forme particulière de complexité en entrepreneuriat. En effet, si certains travaux envisagent depuis quelques années l’entrepreneuriat en tant que phénomène complexe force est de constater qu’ils se focalisent essentiellement sur l’entreprise privée, et très rarement sur les collectivités territoriales et leurs élus. A partir d’une situation de crise et de la demande de trois maires, nous avons souhaité nous interroger sur la pertinence des démarches prospectives pour révéler le caractère entrepreneurial de certains élus. Pour ce faire, nous avons utilisé la méthode IDéO©. Il ressort de notre étude que l’élu entrepreneur local est un individu au dessein social affirmé qui, indépendamment de son appartenance politique fait preuve d’innovation, de proactivité, de prise de risques et combine des moyens publics et privé en vue de créer de la valeur économique et sociale sur son territoire.
La place de l’action dans la recherche en entrepreneuriat : pour le développement d’un agir entrepreneurial
Authors: Schmitt Christophe
Published: November 2016

L’objet de cette recherche est de s’intéresser à la structuration de la recherche en entrepreneuriat. La grille d’analyse proposée est celle des théories de l’action. Nous montrons à travers cette recherche la place de l’action dans les recherches en entrepreneuriat depuis les travaux des économistes jusqu’à l’heure actuelle. Trois temps sont mis en évidence. Tout d’abord, le temps de la construction de la recherche en entrepreneuriat autour de ce qu’il convient d’appeler l’agir rationnel. En réaction aux limites de cet agir, les recherches en entrepreneuriat se sont développées en tendant vers l’agir normatif, tendance correspondant au deuxième temps, en l’occurrence celui de la dimension normative de l’entrepreneuriat. De nos jours, la recherche en entrepreneuriat évolue pour intégrer, dans un troisième temps, la dimension cognitive corollaire de l’agir entrepreneurial. La recherche se termine par une présentation des avenues de la recherche à la lumière du concept d’agir entrepreneurial.
Le projet Yawenda de revitalisation de la langue huronne-wendat : une alliance de recherche entre communauté et université
Authors: Dorais Louis-Jacques
Published: November 2016

Cet article décrit les objectifs, le mode de financement, l’organisation, le déroulement et les résultats d’un projet de coopération scientifique entre l’Université Laval de Québec et la communauté amérindienne de Wendake. Ce projet visait à revitaliser le huron-wendat, langue ancestrale de cette communauté, qui avait cessé d’être utilisé il y a plus d’un siècle pour être remplacé par le français. L’article met en lumière la synergie qui s’est développée entre activistes langagiers autochtones, universitaires et membres de la communauté, et qui a permis au huron-wendat d’être maintenant enseigné comme langue seconde aux adultes et aux écoliers de Wendake.
La psychanalyse face à son héritage romantique
Authors: Dupont Sébastien
Published: November 2016

Cet article revient sur l’influence exercée par le romantisme allemand de la fin du XVIII e et du début du XIX e siècle sur la pensée psychanalytique. Il met au jour des résurgences de ces racines lointaines dans plusieurs discours psychanalytiques contemporains (notamment autour de l’idéalisation de la souffrance et du pessimisme culturel) et interroge les risques qu’elles peuvent représenter pour l’avenir de la discipline.
Le travail de mise en scène dans le psychodrame
Authors: Aisenstein Marilia

Fantasme et processus de fantasmatisation
Authors: Scarfone Dominique
Published: November 2016

À partir de considérations métapsychologiques conséquentes et à l’exemple de Michel de M’Uzan qui, en 1970, a nié l’existence d’affects inconscients et décrit plutôt un processus d’affectation, l’auteur conteste également l’existence de fantasmes inconscients au sens strict. Il décrit cependant un « processus de fantasmatisation » à l’aide duquel il lui paraît possible d’aplanir certaines contradictions dans la théorie freudienne tout en s’accordant avec la théorie psychosomatique de l’École de Paris.
L’enfant mort
Authors: Chabert Catherine
Published: November 2016

Le fantasme de l’enfant mort, dont les traductions plurielles sont susceptibles de surgir dans toute analyse, s’inscrit dans une configuration qui rassemble à la fois l’inceste et le meurtre. Pris dans les réseaux de la psychosexualité, il se révèle dans ses composantes narcissiques et œdipiennes, témoignant aussi bien de l’angoisse de castration au féminin, de l’angoisse de perte d’amour ou de l’angoisse de mort. Il pourrait constituer une figure originaire de la douleur mélancolique du transfert.
Comment naissent les fantasmes
Authors: Maupas Anne
Published: November 2016

À partir d’une psychothérapie conjointe avec une mère et un enfant de trois ans à six ans, et en s’appuyant essentiellement sur le concept de « Censure de l’amante » de Michel Fain et Denise Braunschweig, l’auteur examine les conditions d’émergence du processus de fantasmatisation et les conditions d’élaboration des fantasmes originaires.
Psychosomatique : le rôle du phantasme inconscient
Authors: Bronstein Catalina , Hacker Anne-Lise
Published: November 2016

L’auteur propose l’hypothèse d’une relation entre l’affection psychosomatique et le conflit psychique sous-jacent aux fantasmes inconscients qui s’expriment à travers le corps. Ces premiers fantasmes sont liés aux expériences sensorielles et affectives primitives et s’inscrivent dans ce que Freud décrit comme processus primaires. Leur lien avec le symptôme psychosomatique est éclairé par l’apport des théories de Bion. Le cas d’une adolescente souffrant d’eczéma généralisé illustre comment un grand conflit sans issue avec sa mère décédée est ravivé dans la relation transférentielle à travers le corps.
Le corps inconscient du fantasme La scénographie corporelle
Authors: Assoun Paul-Laurent
Published: November 2016

En quoi la signification inconsciente du fantasme éclaire-t-elle la production du symptôme somatique ? Cette question porte au cœur d’un différend majeur entre psychanalyse et psychosomatique. La clarification en impose d’abord une analyse clinique du « fantasme en acte », mise en scène imagée et écriture du corps auto-érotisé. Puis un portrait métapsychologique du fantasme, indemnisation du renoncement pulsionnel, qui rejoint la mise en acte du corps pulsionnel, via l’excitation, entre préconscient et inconscient, principe de plaisir et répétitivité. Enfin, la dialectique inconsciente du symptôme somatique et du fantasme permet de l’interroger, au-delà de quelque « carence fantasmatique », comme discordance du sujet, entre corps et langage.
Mémoire sans souvenirs Cas limites et psychosomatique
Authors: Botella César
Published: November 2016

L’expérience de l’auteur de psychanalyses de patients borderline et les échecs de la méthode classique l’ont conduit à élargir celle-ci. Fondamentalement, cela consiste à ne pas tenir compte uniquement des systèmes représentationnels et à intégrer dans la méthode freudienne le perceptif , tel que l’auteur le conçoit. Son application aux cures des patients psychosomatiques semble pouvoir apporter un complément thérapeutique qui est à confirmer.
Traces ? Quelles traces ? Réflexions pour une histoire non passéiste
Authors: Morsel Joseph
Published: November 2016

La définition de l’histoire comme « connaissance par traces » constitue l’une des évidences les mieux enracinées dans les représentations des historiens, quelle que soit l’épistémologie dont ils se réclament. C’est d’une part à la généalogie de cette évidence que se consacre cet article, qui montre que la référence à la trace est strictement contemporaine de la formation de la science historique à partir du milieu du xviii e  s. (bien qu’elle ne soit théorisée que tardivement, à la fin du xx e  s., comme une sorte d’indice), mais aussi que la valeur sémantique de la trace est systématiquement réduite à l’empreinte plutôt qu’à la piste. L’article examine donc ensuite les implications logiques de cette conception de la trace historique comme une empreinte, qui fonctionne pour l’historien comme la figure spéculaire, à la fois épiphanique et mimétique, d’une réalité disparue, le passé – comme si l’histoire n’était qu’une technique de « résurrection du passé ». Pour finir, l’article soulève le problème de l’objet classiquement (malgré l’opposition de maints historiens) attribué à l’histoire, le passé – et fait l’hypothèse que c’est précisément la théorie implicite de la « connaissance par traces » et la réduction de la trace à l’empreinte qui interdisent vraiment à l’historien de sortir du rôle traditionnel de l’histoire comme commémoration du passé.
Prosopographia Attica 2.0 . Base de données et raisonnement prosopographique
Authors: Karila-Cohen Karine
Published: November 2016

L’usage des outils numériques s’est largement développé dans les études prosopographiques, toutes périodes confondues. L’apport indéniable en termes de stockage et d’interrogation des données s’accompagne également d’une réflexion, induite par ce nouvel outil, sur les pratiques héritées d’une longue tradition érudite. Le recours à une base de données relationnelle permet de s’interroger sur le processus de fabrication d’une notice prosopographique, interrogation d’autant plus nécessaire en prosopographie attique que l’on travaille avec des sources lacunaires dont le texte lui-même est souvent difficile à établir. Ce questionnement sur la méthode, et donc sur la validité des données publiées dans un catalogue qui sera le support de multiples études, n’est pas neuf, mais il est renouvelé par la nécessité de traduire la démarche prosopographique dans le langage des bases de données relationnelles. Il s’agit donc, dans un premier temps, de parcourir la longue tradition de la prosopographie attique pour voir quelle place a pris le discours de la méthode depuis la fin du xix e  siècle. Dans un second temps, l’article tente de montrer, en s’appuyant sur un exemple précis détaillé en annexe, que la décomposition en tables dans une base de données révèle les implicites de ce discours de la méthode. Il s’agit de s’interroger sur le type, le nombre et la valeur des arguments qu’il faut retenir pour accepter les hypothèses prosopographiques.
Breast Milk Collection and Storage in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: Nurses' Knowledge, Practice, and Perceived Barriers
Authors: Gharaibeh Huda Falah , Al-sheyab Nihaya , Malkawi Shefa Yousef
Published: November 2016

Background:

Temporary storage of human milk under appropriate conditions encourages prolonged breast-feeding.

Purpose:

This study aimed to assess neonatal nurses' knowledge and practice, as well as barriers, related to breast milk collection and storage and to investigate the association between nurses' knowledge and practice and other variables.

Method:

A cross-sectional design was used. Consecutive samplings of 75 nurses were recruited. The questions were based on a literature review of guidelines for collecting and storing breast milk from various sources, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine.

Results:

Nurses' knowledge and practice of breast milk collection and storage were adequate in general, but inadequate in relation to issues such as discarding breast milk, the thawing process, and storage temperatures. Poor practices related to absence of required equipment and unit policy. Barriers were increased workload, inappropriate milk room (i.e., a small room with uncomfortable chairs and no privacy), inactive policy, and inadequate time.

Conclusion:

Nurses should be orientated to the guidelines and a unit policy to enhance evidence-based practice.

Perceptions of Continuing Nursing Education in Korea
Authors: Jho Mi Young , Kang Youngmi
Published: November 2016

Background:

Few empirical studies examine nurses' perceptions of continuing nursing education and its outcomes regarding the quality of delivered service. This study investigated nurses' perceptions and persisting challenges with continuing nursing education.

Method:

Data were collected from 17 nurses with at least 2 years of work experience who had completed at least one continuing nursing education program at three university hospitals in South Korea. Demographic questionnaire data were collected and a prepared interview was used to lead focus group interaction. Phenomenological content analysis was performed immediately following each interview.

Results:

Three main themes of continuing nursing education perceptions emerged: Feelings Toward Completing Continuing Nursing Education (Burden And Ambivalence); Perceptions of Completing Continuing Nursing Education Programs (Perceived Benefits and Problems); and Continuing Nursing Education-Related Educational Needs (Relevance to Practice and Reflection of Participants' Needs).

Conclusion:

A regionally and institutionally expanded study was proposed to qualitatively assess nurses' experiences on completion of continuing nursing education.

A dialogue with Sen’s Theory of capabilities and its implications for our National Democratic Revolution
Authors: Vellem Vuyani
Published: November 2016

In ‘traditional’ liberation theological discourse, especially the Latin American strand, the concept of development, desarrollismo, that is developmentalism, has been severely critiqued. In recent times, the interpretation of development shifted to a number of models, one of which has been the view of development as freedom, associated with Amartya Sen’s ‘capabilities theory’. While the capabilities theory ostensibly comes closer to the goals of the liberation paradigm in general, this article seeks to critically explore in dialogue with this theory of capabilities assumptions and implications of the concept of development for our national democratic revolution. A number of service delivery strikes in our land, with many poor people expecting government to ‘deliver’ for them, might suggest among other things that the state does ‘development’ for people, hence the designation of the post-1994 South African state as a ‘developmental state’. This article argues that, at foundational level, development understood as liberation could help alter the assumptions that held the national democratic revolution back.
Eschatology in Malachi: The emergence of a doctrine
Authors: Wielenga Bob
Published: November 2016

In this article the eschatology of Malachi is investigated within its own historical context. The socio-political and spiritual situation of the early postexilic Persian era in Yehud is briefly outlined. The attention is then focused on the prophetic voices which articulated eschatological visions at that point in time. This article’s contention is that Malachi’s eschatology had developed from that of Haggai, being influenced in the process by the eschatological insights of Zechariah and 3 Isaiah. The conclusion is that in Malachi Haggai’s proclamation of eschatological hope is confirmed, albeit adjusted by the introduction of divine judgement into his eschatological discourse in response to the community’s disappointment at the perceived delay in the fulfilment of the promised future.

Knowledge, attitudes and management skills of medical practitioners regarding weight management
Authors: Mkhatshwa Vangile B. , Ogunbanjo Gboyega A. , Mabuza Langalibalele H.
Published: November 2016

Background: Overweight and obesity have become a global problem. Health professionals are poorly prepared in weight management, which has an effect on their attitudes and management skills with regard to overweight and obese patients.Aim and setting: To assess the knowledge, attitudes and management skills of medical practitioners regarding weight management at Odi District Hospital, Gauteng Province, South Africa.Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 48 medical practitioners at Odi Hospital between 01 October and 31 October 2013. A self-administered questionnaire was used to assess their knowledge, attitudes and management skills in weight management. The SPSS® statistical software (Version 22) was used for data analysis. A p < 0.05 was considered significant.Results: Fifty medical practitioners were recruited, 48 consented to participate and 28 (58.3%) were male. Their categories were community service doctors (3), medical officers (21), registrars (22) and others (2). Thirty-seven (77.1%) never received training in weight management (p < 0.001). Thirty-two (66.7%) regarded weight management as not confined to a dietician (p < 0.001) and 27 (56.2%) regarded weight management as usually unsuccessful (p = 0.004). Forty-seven (97.9%) provided lifestyle modifications and 43 (89.6%) involved the patient’s family in weight management (p < 0.001). More non-registrars [14 (77.8%)] than registrars [8 (38.1%)] measured the body mass index (BMI) routinely (p = 0.013).Conclusion: Few medical practitioners received training in weight management. They regarded weight management as usually unsuccessful and lacked confidence in the same owing to lack of training. They provided lifestyle modifications and involved the patient’s family in weight management. Non-registrars measured the BMI routinely. There is a need for training in weight management at undergraduate and post-graduate levels.

Aim

To study the clinical profile and site proclivity of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) at tertiary care center of Rohilkhand region, Bareilly.

Materials and methods

Among 329 patients, the study was conducted on 108 patients with EPTB. The analysis included patients who were diagnosed for EPTB between May 1, 2015 and October 31, 2015 in a tertiary care hospital, Rohilkhand region, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh.

Results

Among the EPTB cases studied, 62 (57.4%) were males. About 96 (88.8%) patients received Category (CAT)1 treatment and 12 (11.1%) patients received CAT2 treatment. Overall, the total number of different types of EPTB cases included lymph node (n = 44, 40.7%), human gastrointestinal tract (n = 18, 16.6%), pleura (n = 34, 31.4%), skeletal (n = 5, 4.6%), central nervous system (n = 3, 2.7%); other sites included mainly breast (n = 2, 3.2%), genitourinary (n = 1, 2.6%), and skin (n = 1, 2.6%).

Conclusion

Extrapulmonary tuberculosis still constitutes an important clinical problem. In this study, we assessed the site of predilection of EPTB patients, which constituted 32.8% of all tuberculosis cases presented to our center during the study period. Lymph node tuberculosis is the most common type.

Study on Physical Activity as a Determinant of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Antenatal Women attending a Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Srivastava Saumya
Published: November 2016

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), defined as glucose intolerance with first recognition in pregnancy, has become a growing health concern. Gestational diabetes mellitus has been related to significant short-term and long-term adverse health outcomes for both mothers and offspring. Physical activity in all stages of life has a great role in maintaining cardiorespiratory fitness. Regular physical activity during pregnancy improves and maintains physical fitness.

In this study, 301 antenatal women aged between 19 and 45 years attending the outpatient department (OPD) of Obstetrics and Gynecology were studied for the association of physical activity and GDM. No significant association was observed between age and GDM (p = 0.0968) and between physical activity and GDM (p = 0.5880). Therefore, the present study recommends antenatal women to perform physical activity for recommended duration with all precautions and also do the activity that has minimal risk, such as brisk walk and balanced aerobic exercises.

Dermatoglyphics: A Brief Review
Authors: Zaidi SHH
Published: November 2016

Dermatoglyphics refers to epidermal ridges present on the palm, sole, fingers, and toes. These epidermal ridges are formed in the same intrauterine period when neuronal development takes place in the intrauterine life of a fetus. Thus, dermatoglyphics is correlated with genetic abnormalities and is useful in the diagnosis of congenital malformations and many other medical disorders. Each and every individual has unique fingerprints, even in twins. These fingerprints remain the same lifelong from their development unless they are damaged by dermal injuries. The different regions of our brain are reflected by fingerprints, palm prints and foot patterns present in the 10 fingers, 10 toes, palmar and plantar surfaces respectively and these dermatoglyphics represent the various regions of brain therefore can be used in dermatoglyphics mental intelligence test (DMIT) and now a day is being used globally.

Role of Public–Private Partnerships in delivering Health Care Services in India
Authors: Agarwal Medhavi , Tanwar Ruchi
Published: November 2016

A public–private partnership (PPP) is a contractual arrangement between a private sector and a government sector. Through this agreement, the skills and assets of each other are shared in delivering a service or facility for use of general public. In recent years, there have been many initiatives to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and equity in provision of health care services in the country. Public–private partnership is one such initiative. Public–private partnership is the first step toward the health care services to improve quality, efficiency, accessibility, availability, acceptability, and equity of the services. It strengthens the existing health system by improving management of health within the government infrastructure and mobilizes the additional resources. Private sector is the most important source of health care services in India, providing maximum health services to the population. In absence of effective public health system, majority of household seek health care from nongovernment sectors. Various partnerships are being pursued under the existing program of ministry, especially RCH-2, independently by the state under their own resources.

Glimpses of Evolution of Micro-ear Surgery
Authors: Srivastava Abhinav , Singh Rachana
Published: November 2016

Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the middle ear cleft. It is of two types: Mucosal and squamosal, and it can present with life-threatening complications.

A surgery of very small structure, like inner and middle ear, is very difficult to do accurately with naked eyes and this led to the evolution of magnifying devices, like loupes, microscopes, and endoscopes. With time, electronic devices came into picture and a trained coordinated move of the hand under microscopeassisted eyes gave accurate and better surgery results.

The use of microscopes has crossed the territory of otology and many other surgical specialties are also using like neurosurgery, plastic surgery, and ophthalmology.

An unusual Case of Bilateral Ethmoidal Mucopyocele
Authors: Bhardwaj Prashant , Srivastava Abhinav , Yadav Sadhana , Rana Amit K
Published: November 2016

Mucocele is defined as an epithelial-lined, mucus-containing benign sac completely filling the sinus and can be seen expanding to induce pressure effects on surrounding structures. Frontoethmoidal mucocele is by far the most common due to the complexity of its drainage, and incidence of maxillary mucocele is least.

A 20-year-old female presented with a chief complaint of protruding right eyeball, redness and watering from both eyes, persistent headache, and decreased vision in both eyes since 4 months, along with complaint of diplopia and bilateral nasal obstruction with marked nonaxial proptosis, chemosis, and downward globe displacement along with telecanthus and lateral dystopia in the right eye. Orbital movements were restricted in superolateral direction. Vision was markedly decreased. Fundus examination was normal on the left side, but right eye showed hyperemic optic disk and full optic cup with dilated blood vessels. Right corneal examination showed signs of exposure keratitis.

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of the paranasal sinus (PNS) revealed bilateral mucocele in ethmoid sinus with hypoplastic frontal and maxillary sinus with aplastic sphenoid sinuses, which is not a common presentation. Endoscopic-wide marsupialization of bilateral mucopyocele was performed under general anesthesia.
