La formation tout au long de la vie à l’épreuve du genre
Authors: Fournier Christine
Published: March 2023

La formation bénéficie davantage aux cadres qu’aux salariés ou aux ouvriers. Pour ce qui concerne les femmes, on constate la même dérive encore accentuée. Les femmes cadres parviennent à contrebalancer les effets négatifs de la charge familiale, mais les moins qualifiées restent nettement désavantagées par rapport aux hommes appartenant aux mêmes catégories socioprofessionnelles. L’égal accès à la formation professionnelle semble donc un enjeu crucial au regard des inégalités de genre.
Les débuts de la Réforme en France : transferts culturels et histoire du livre, 1517-1523
Authors: BARBIER Frédéric
Published: March 2023

La problématique des transferts culturels s’applique tout particulièrement bien au phénomène de diffusion de la Réforme luthérienne en France. Les événements de Wittenberg restent largement ignorés dans le royaume jusqu’aux années 1520, malgré la circulation des livres, puis la publication des premiers textes luthériens en latin à Paris. La Determinatio de la Faculté de théologie de Paris donne au dossier Luther un retentissement beaucoup plus grand (1521), et les importations de livres d’Allemagne tendent à se renforcer. Les groupes d’intermédiaires se recrutent d’abord dans les universités (Paris, Orléans, Bourges, etc.), mais aussi chez les professionnels du livre à Paris et à Lyon. Bientôt, les textes désormais rédigés en allemand seront traduits en latin, notamment à Strasbourg, voire plus rarement en français. En 1523, le processus de transfert est entré dans une nouvelle phase, tandis que la question de la surveillance et de l’encadrement du média est directement posée.
L’Apollon de Piombino
Authors: Badoud Nathan
Published: March 2023

Bien que l’Apollon de Piombino occupe une place éminente dans l’histoire de l’art occidental depuis sa découverte en 1834, son importance véritable reste à établir. Elle tient d’abord à ce que cette statue de bronze n’est pas : elle n’est ni une oeuvre des VIe-Ve siècles av. J.-C. ni un pastiche produit un demi-millénaire plus tard pour satisfaire la demande d’un «marché de l’art » romain sur lequel elle aurait été introduite comme un «faux » dont l’apparente ancienneté aurait eu pour but de duper quelque acheteur potentiel. Cette dernière hypothèse a largement compromis la bonne intelligence de l’art dit «archaïsant » – lequel est en réalité une métareprésentation qui ne figure pas son sujet mais l’image de ce dernier, instituée comme telle par le recours aux conventions stylistiques d’un autre temps. L’Apollon de Piombino en est le plus parfait exemple : produit à Rhodes et consacré à l’Athéna de Lindos à la fin du IIe siècle av. J.-C., il était tout à la fois une offrande de son temps et la reviviscence d’une offrande archaïque, une exaltation de l’hellénisme des origines qui ne fut pas conçue pour Rome, mais contre Rome, au moment où le monde grec achevait de lui succomber. En 22 apr. J.-C. les Lindiens durent se résoudre à vendre une partie des statues élevées dans le sanctuaire d’Athéna pour faire face à la crise financière consécutive aux guerres civiles ; c’est alors seulement, sans doute, que l’Apollon fut envoyé en Italie, où le goût pour le style archaïque commençait tout juste à se développer, porté par la révolution augustéenne.
Single-Bolus Tinzaparin Anticoagulation in Extended Hemodialysis Session: a Feasibility Study
Authors: Harvey Benoît , Lafrance Jean-Philippe , Elftouh Naoual , Vallée Michel , Laurin Louis-Philippe , Nadeau-Fredette Annie-Claire
Published: March 2023

Background:

Few studies have assessed the use of low-molecular weight heparins for anticoagulation during extended hemodialysis sessions. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a single-bolus of tinzaparin for anticoagulation of the extracorporeal circuit and dialyzer in 8-hour hemodialysis sessions.

Methods:

This single-center study included all patients who underwent a single 8-hour simulation session as part of their nocturnal home hemodialysis training between 2009 and 2020. Tinzaparin was delivered as a single bolus injection at time 0 with dosing based on doubling of standard 4-hour session dose. Tinzaparin efficacy was examined via visual observations (score 1-4) of the dialyzer and venous bubble trap at the end of dialysis, and using anti-Xa measured at 15-, 30-minute and 1-, 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-hour after hemodialysis start.

Results:

Forty-seven patients were included. Mean tinzaparin dose was 107 ± 20 IU/Kg. Anti-Xa levels peaked at 15-minutes with 1.3 ± 0.4 IU/mL and progressively declined reaching 0.9 ± 0.3 IU/mL at 1-hour, 0.4 ± 0.21 IU/mL at 4-hour, and 0.15 ± 0.15 IU/mL at 8-hour. After the 8-hour session, none of the patients had severe clotting of their dialyzer or venous chamber. Moderate blood clotting was observed in the dialyzer of 6 (20%) patients and in the venous chamber of 22 (61%) patients. Based on the simulation results, tinzaparin dose was increased in 27 (58%) patients with a mean home-discharge dose of 123 ± 28 IU/Kg.

Conclusion:

This study shows that anti-Xa levels stabilized rapidly after administration on tinzaparin for 8-hour hemodialysis. Administration of a single bolus tinzaparin at the start of an 8-hour dialysis session appeared effective, although dose adjustment may be required.

Choose and Curate toward Commitment to Capable and Committed teachers (5Cs): A Set of Principles for Teacher Career Reform
Authors: Hwa Yue-Yi
Published: March 2023

Classroom teaching is complex. This means that pursuing a vision of empowered, highly respected, strongly performance-normed, contextually embedded teaching professionals who cultivate student learning requires a systemic approach to teacher career reform. One such approach is a set of principles called the 5Cs: choose and curate toward commitment to capable and committed teachers.1 Education authorities must initially choose prospective teachers based on the best available information. Education authorities should also designate the novice phase as a period of curation involving extensive support for teachers’ pedagogical development and careful identification of those teachers who are most likely to make sustained, careerlong contributions to student learning. Such teachers must be technically capable and equipped for cultivating student learning in their specific school, classroom, and curricular contexts. Additionally, teachers must also be motivationally committed to the systemwide purpose of cultivating children’s learning. After these teachers have demonstrated their capability and commitment, education authorities should make a long-term employment commitment to them.

Los miembros del género Clinostomum, son un grupo de parásitos que en estadio adulto residen en la cavidad bucal de aves ictiófagas, mientras que la fase de larva conocida como metacercaria, se encuentran en forma de quiste de color amarillo en músculo, cavidad oral, ojos, branquias, tejido subcutáneo, gónadas, hígado y otros órganos, en peces de vida silvestre y cultivados distribuidos en todo el mundo. En el presente proyecto de investigación recopilamos información disponible en la base de datos del GenBank de las especies del género Clinostomum de diferentes regiones biogeográficas de América, Europa, Asía y África, con un especial énfasis en la biodiversidad de México y centro América. La base de datos genética se formó con 394 secuencias de las cuales, 269 secuencias fueron obtenidas de 51 localidades de la región neártica y neotropical de México y de dos países de centro América como: Honduras y Costa Rica. Los análisis filogenéticos inferidos con los métodos de máxima verosimilitud e Inferencia bayesiana, reconocieron 8 clados o grupos independientes que corresponde a 6 especies previamente descritas en México, Honduras y Costa Rica como: C. tataxumui, C. heluans, C. cichlidorum, C. arquus, C. caffarae y C. marginatum, más dos especies candidatas Clinostomum spp. (Linaje 1 y Linaje 3). Las 6 especies de Clinostomum distribuidas en México se encuentran asociadas a cinco especies de aves acuáticas de la familia Ardeidae, mientras que las metacercarias presentan un patrón de especificidad con peces de las familias Catostomidae, Cyprinidae, Goodeidae, Cichlidae, Eleotridae, Pimelodidae, Characidae, Profundulidae, y Poeciliidae, que funcionan como el segundo huésped intermediario. Probablemente, estas asociaciones ecológicas fueron claves y fundamentales en la distribución de las especies del género Clinostomum en México y centro América.
Analysis of electron heating due to partial resonance in an inductively coupled plasma under confronting divergent magnetic fields
Authors: Okazaki Ryota , Sugawara Hirotake
Published: March 2023

We investigate the partial resonance as one of the mechanisms of the electron heating to sustain inductively coupled plasmas driven under confronting divergent magnetic fields having an electron confinement function. The dependence of the partial resonance on operating conditions is observed. The electron energy gain (EEG), defined as a measure for evaluation of the partial resonance, was calculated by a Monte Carlo method under various magnetic field strengths and RF antenna positions. It is confirmed that the partial resonance is observed in the resonant region even in low electric field and a strong magnetic field. As an attempt to utilize the partial resonance, we demonstrate enhancement of the EEG and resulting ionization in the resonant region by placing the RF antenna near a region where the magnetic field lines running through the resonant region reach.

Considerations When Performing an Epidural Blood Patch on a Patient Anticoagulated with Low Molecular Weight Heparin: A Case Report
Authors: Sheeran Jessica , MacCormick Samuel , Kohan Lynn
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND: Epidural blood patch (EBP) procedure timing can be difficult in patients on anticoagulant therapy when balancing the goals of EBP, safety, and efficacy. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a patient on anticoagulant therapy with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) who presented for a planned cesarean section which was complicated by dural puncture with a Tuohy needle during combined spinal-epidural placement. She then developed a postdural puncture headache (PDPH) after restarting LMWH. After holding LMWH for 18 hours, an EBP was placed resulting in symptomatic relief; LMWH was restarted 12 hours later. However, her symptoms returned and EBP was repeated 78 hours after the initial blood patch, again with relief of symptoms. CONCLUSION: This case highlights the importance of EBP procedure timing in the setting of LMWH administration in order to maximize efficacy while minimizing neuraxial hematoma and venous thromboembolism risk. KEY WORDS: Epidural blood patch, postdural puncture headache, anticoagulation, efficacy, timing
Improving Outcomes of Therapy-Resistant Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Utilizing Ketamine Infusions and Comprehensive Rehabilitation Following Amputation: A Case Report
Authors: Dworkin Ian , Moheimani Roya , Pang Edward , Zirovich Milena , Pangarkar Sanjog
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a term describing signs and symptoms of a poorly understood neuropathic pain condition. Despite a number of treatment options, patients with CRPS often suffer from significant impairment and unsatisfactory pain relief. An option rarely considered in managing this condition is amputation due to concerns of pain recurrence or disease progression. CASE REPORT: A 50-year-old man with a history of refractory CRPS on high-dose opioids (over 400 morphine daily equivalents) presented with a request to consider amputation. After extensive interdisciplinary discussion, it was decided to proceed with amputation resulting in successful resolution of his CRPS symptoms with aggressive peri- and postoperative ketamine infusions and a comprehensive therapy program. The patient is now 6 years post amputation and denies phantom limb pain or the spread of CRPS to other limbs. He was subsequently tapered off all opioid medication and has only needed the occasional acetaminophen for pain. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate the potential for a selective treatment approach in a patient with treatment-resistant CRPS using IV ketamine infusions. KEY WORDS: Amputation, chronic pain, complex regional pain syndrome, ketamine

“COMPARISON OF UNILATERAL VERSUS BILATERAL SPINALANAESTHESIA USING HYPERBARIC BUPIVACAINE WITH CLONIDINE IN INGUINAL HERNIA SURGERY - A RANDOMIZED CONTROL STUDY”
Authors: Sultana Saba , Diddi Krishna , Reddy Bana Mahender , Sujatha Dharavath , Veera Bhadreshwara Anusha Doddoju
Published: March 2023

Introduction: Unilateral spinal anaesthesia has advantages over bilateral spinal anaesthesia as it provides a stronger block on the side of surgery
and accelerated recovery of the nerve block. There is lower incidence of hypotension and better maintenance of cardiovascular stability and can be
a used for high risk patients. Hence this study was done to compare the unilateral versus bilateral spinal anaesthesia with hyperbaric bupivacaine
0.5 % + clonidine in inguinal hernia surgeries with reference to perioperative autonomic, sensory, motor stability, post operative analgesia and
minimize hospital stay. Methodology:Aprospective study was done in 100 patients posted for inguinal hernia surgeries in a tertiary care hospital.
After approval from the ethical committee of the institute, Pre anaesthetic checkup was done one day prior to the surgery. Patients were evaluated
for any systemic diseases and laboratory investigation recorded. The procedure of SAB was explained to the patients and written consent was
obtained. Patients were kept in lateral position (on the side of surgery) for 10min for group U & made supine immediately on the OTtable for group
B, with 10 degree head down tilt of the table. Chi-square test and t test was used for statistical analysis. Signicance level was set at 0.05. Result
Mean age, mean height, mean weight, ASAphysical status classication, Comorbidities and preoperative vitals was comparable in both the groups.
Proportion of patients with fall in vitals was signicantly more in group B compared to group U. Conclusions: Unilateral spinal anaesthesia group
had lower incidence of hemodynamic changes with respect to bradycardia and hypotension and lower requirement of Mephentermine and
Atropine. So adopting a unilateral spinal block producing minimal hemodynamic uctuations would prove benecial.

Downlink Beamforming for Dynamic Metasurface Antennas
Authors: Kimaryo Seraphin , Lee Kyungchun
Published: March 2023

In this work, we study the dynamic metasurface antennas (DMA) for use in the transmission of wireless communication signals instead of conventional metallic antennas. DMA belongs to a family of metamaterials, which allow their properties to be reconfigured in real-time. The reconfiguration of DMA is mostly hindered by the associated Lorentzian constrain. In this work, we propose a technique of splitting the Lorentzian constraints into two parts, which allows the avoidance of conventional relaxation techniques. The splitting technique eventually led to performance improvement in both single-user and multiuser MISO systems.

Published: March 2023

Organizing free and fair elections in the country has become quite difficult for the government these days .A large amount of money has been spent on this to ensure that there are no riots during the elections .But nowadays, certain forces have become accustomed to rigging elections, leading to a contrary verdict to what the people intended. The purpose of this paper is to present a new voting scheme that uses biometrics to improve accuracy and speed while avoiding rigging. Due to the fact that each human has a different fingerprint, we can easily identify the personal details by using fingerprint sensors in our system. Therefore, this system is better than the current voting system. Voters' fingerprints will be entered into the system as input during the elections. Then this input fingerprint will be compared to the database. If the user's data is available in our database, then we will grant them voting access. However, if the record does not match our database, then we will reject this vote. The same applies to repeat users. By reducing costs, the system's maintenance costs and overall costs for conducting elections also decrease.
Space-Time Block Coded Spatial Modulation with Symbol Permutation
Authors: Wei Ruey-Yi , Chang Ching-Wen
Published: March 2023

Spatial modulation (SM) with space-time block coding (STBC) increases diversity order compared to conventional SM by activating two transmit antennas each time. However, existing STBC-SM schemes use rotation angles to increase spectral efficiency, leading to smaller coding-gain distance and constellation expansion. To address this, we propose a novel STBC-SM scheme that permutates symbols of multiple STBC blocks without rotation angles, allowing for increased data rate by selecting different permutation patterns.

Introduction: There is variation in the distribution of feet pattern and this variation in could be genetic. Genetic variation in humans is caused by many factors such as natural selection, migration, temporal variation, gene flow and genetic drift. In certain populations, there is the predominant feet structure or toe pattern that is common which results from the genetic makeup of the people. The dearth of information on the distribution of Morton’s toe (Greek’s feet) among the Idoma people informed this study, which would provide a baseline data for the population. Materials and Methods: The study was descriptive and cross-sectional in design with a sample size of 384 participants who were recruited using a multistage sampling method. Data for the study was collected using a self-created, closed-ended questionnaire that examined the presence or absence of Morton’s toe. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 25. Results: The most frequent socio-demographic characteristics were age category 33-47yrs with 205(53.3%), male gender with 213(55.4%), Tertiary education with 229(59.6%), Married/Co-habiting 210(54.6%), and Christianity 276(71.8%). The proportion of participants with Morton’s toe was 28.3%. In the population few persons have Morton’s toe. The only significant (p=0.038) socio-demographic characteristic among participants was marital status. Conclusion: The proportion of participants with Morton’s toe was 28.3%. In the population few persons have Morton’s toe. The only significant (p=0.038) socio-demographic characteristic among participants was marital status. Less than a third of the sampled population had Morton’s toe; in the general population, 2 in 7 persons had Morton’s toe.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a major contributor to illness and death in newborns. Despite many years of research, there has been little progress in mitigating the effects of this condition. The only consistently identified risk factor for NEC is prematurity, and clinical indicators have not been able to reliably predict which infants are susceptible to the disease. Therefore, it is critical to incorporate specific radiographic findings, known as pathognomonic, to avert severe complications that can result in fatality. This case report sheds light on the typical radiographic characteristics of NEC that must be recognized to facilitate early detection and prevent critical complications.
2018 Milletvekili Genel ve Cumhurbaşkanlığı Seçimlerinde Elit Karşıtı Tutumlar ve Seçmen Davranışı İlişkisi
Authors: MORAL Mert , TOSUN Yasemin , TOPÇU Şeyma
Published: March 2023

Popülizmin son yıllardaki yükselişine talep temelli açıklamalar getiren çalışmalarda seçmenlerin popülist tutumları ile popülist parti ve adaylara oy destekleri arasında pozitif bir örüntü olduğu öne sürülmektedir. Popülizmin çeşitli tanımlarında yer alan elit karşıtlığı ile seçmen davranışı arasındaki ilişkiye odaklanan çalışmalardaysa kuramsal beklentilerle aynı ölçüde uyumlu sonuçlara ulaşılmamaktadır. Bu ilişkiyi Türkiye özelinde değerlendiren makalede temsili bir anket çalışmasının verileri ve nicel yöntemler kullanılarak, 2018 Genel ve Cumhurbaşkanlığı seçimlerindeki oy verme ve seçime katılım davranışları incelenmektedir. Çalışmada popülist bir partinin uzun süredir iktidarda olduğu Türkiye’de elit kavramının iktidardaki partinin seçkinlerini tanımlar hale geldiğini ve elit karşıtlığının bu nedenle popülist parti ve adaylara oy verme olasılığı üzerinde pozitif bir etkisi olmadığı öne sürülmektedir. Çokterimli lojistik regresyonlar bu beklentileri destekleyerek, elit yanlısı seçmenlerin popülist partilere ve adayına oy verme eğiliminde olduğunu göstermektedir. Ampirik bulguların popülizm, karşılaştırmalı siyaset, Türkiye siyaseti ve demokratik temsiliyet açılarından birçok önemli sonucu tartışılmaktadır.
Friedrich August von Hayek’in Bireycilik Perspektifinde Özgürlük ve Sorumluluk Kavramı
Authors: BİNİCİ Sedat
Published: March 2023

Bu çalışmada 20. Yüzyılın en önemli liberal düşünürlerinden biri olan Friedrich August von Hayek’in özgürlük düşüncesinin temellerini kurduğu bireycilik anlayışı, bir toplum için bizatihi gerekli olan özgürlük fikri ve özgürlükle her zaman ilintili olan sorumluluk düşüncesi irdelenmiştir. Hayek’in bireycilik, özgürlük ve sorumluluk düşüncesi çağdaş klasik liberal geleneğe damgasını vuran kendiliğinden doğan düzen fikrinin açılımıyla belirtilmiş ve toplum içerisinde somut hale getirilmesi savunulmuştur.

Hatta Hayek bütün çalışmalarını ve yazılarını kendiliğinden doğan düzen düşüncesi etrafında sistematize etmiştir. Hayek bireylere ve onların özgürlüklerine verdiği değerle, toplumsal düzenin tasarımlı bir şekilde kontrol edilmesine karşı çıkışı temsil etmiştir. Yine Hayek’e göre liberal geleneğin niteliği olan birey, özgürlük ve sorumluluk gibi kavramların bir sosyal düzen için gerekli olduğunu savunmuş ve genel liberal gelenekten ayrılmıştır.

Monkeypox transmission risks in Indonesia
Authors: Saputra Hermawan , Salma Nadilah , Anjari Sheila Rizkia
Published: March 2023

After half a century as a regional disease in Central and West Africa, Monkeypox reemerged in 2022 and spread on a transnational and transcontinental scale. The World Health Organization (WHO) classified it as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern due to its rapid spread caused by the ease of global mobilization, risk deviant behaviors, and potential for virus mutations. Through literature review and other secondary data sources, this study scrutinized the risk of Monkeypox disease in Indonesia. Given the country's various characteristics, such as geographical conditions, demographics, population mobility, and virus characteristics, it is most likely that there were Monkeypox cases in Indonesia, but they might not have been detected. Therefore, early vigilance must be owned by the community and accompanied by policy support and intervention to prevent Monkeypox transmission, particularly in surveillance efforts.
