Qui protège l’enfant ?
Authors: Bonnet Doris
Published: November 2020

Cet ouvrage rassemble des textes de démographes, d’historiennes, d’anthropologues, de sages-femmes et de médecins qui travaillent en Europe, aux Etats-Unis, au Japon, en Amérique latine, en Afrique et dans l’Océan indien, tous sur l’enfance et la famille, dans des contextes extrêmement divers. La pluralité des acteurs de la prise en charge de l’enfant, en particulier au moment de la naissance, y est soulignée. L’originalité de cet ouvrage est aussi d’engager une réflexion sur la nécessité d’un apport interdisciplinaire sur ces sujets. En effet, pour appréhender l’enfant et son environnement, il nous faut aujourd’hui tenir compte d’une diversité de modèles de socialisation et de réalités familiales, mais également d’approches méthodologiques.
Les enjeux sociétaux et cliniques de la pensée de V. Frankl (1905-1997)
Authors: Sarfati Georges-Elia
Published: November 2020

Cette contribution constitue une présentation synthétique des principales notions de l’analyse existentielle et de la logothérapie. Au-delà de son aspect proprement didactique, elle indique les enjeux liés à une extension de la pensée de Viktor Frankl, en regard des exigences d’une clinique du sens généralisée. Le caractère transversal de la problématique du sens, inhérente à l’ensemble des domaines de pratiques, appelle une conceptualisation qui dépasse par principe le seul domaine médico-thérapeutique, dans la mesure où l’idée de sens est ici indissociable de la question des valeurs. Cette perspective concerne aussi bien la formation des logothérapeutes que les différents usages sociétaux de la logothérapie.

Fieldwork turning blind eyes
Authors: Da Lage Emilie
Published: November 2020

Music is one of the ways – there are others – through which exiles deploy forms of subjectivation that allow the building of more or less cosmopolitan collectives. It is one of the ways of creating a range of space and time in which it is possible to commit in various ways. Music has also a “potential” of creating collective commitment. The present chapter also question the conditions of ethnography in field work organized by a strong grid of multiple surveillances and advocate to move from an observation of what people do in precarious situation, toward a listening position in order to imagine ways of acting together
Vivências de mulheres sobre o processo de parturição e pós-parto em um hospital escola
Authors: Kolln Genero Isabella , Reis dos Santos Karolina
Published: November 2020

Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que objetivou compreender a percepção das mulheres sobre o atendimento ofertado em um Hospital-Escola Público, assim como apreender as representações sociais sobre maternidade que perpassam este contexto, considerando de que forma a amamentação tem sido vivenciada pelas mulheres e incorporada na assistência em saúde. A coleta de dados ocorreu através de entrevistas presenciais semiestruturadas com oito mulheres hospitalizadas. A escolha pela entrevista semiestruturada se deu para que o foco da pesquisa pudesse ser investigado e não corrêssemos o risco de obter falas aleatórias e não relacionadas ao tema. Foi utilizada a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin, resultando em quatro categorias de análise elaboradas pela pesquisadora após análise do conteúdo das falas obtidas, são elas: a) As representações sobre ser mãe; b) Vivências do trabalho de pré-parto, parto e pós-parto imediato; c) A institucionalização do corpo; d) Atendimento ofertado às mulheres e relação profissional-paciente. Como resultados, elucidou-se que as representações sociais sobre a maternidade estavam presentes nas experiências das mulheres entrevistadas, interferindo em sua maternagem e na percepção da amamentação, bem como na assistência em saúde. A institucionalização do corpo e partos disciplinadores entre cuidado/prevenção também agravam a regulação da mulher. Relatos de práticas de acolhimento, interdisciplinaridade e integralidade no cuidado estiveram presentes, porém a vivência de limitações nos processos comunicacionais, a organização do serviço de saúde, a relação de saber/poder transformada em hierarquização no encontro paciente-profissional e a objetificação da mulher no processo de parto, denotaram a necessidade de importantes modificações na forma de cuidar e assistir mulheres durante este processo, afim de possibilitar o protagonismo das mulheres e humanização hospitalar. Percebeu-se a importância desta pesquisa como forma de efetivação de um lugar de fala para as mulheres-pacientes e suas realidades, fato que justifica sua execução e publicação, uma vez que os dados obtidos podem contribuir para a melhora dos cuidados ofertados pela equipe multiprofissional, que pode também atuar objetivando a construção de um espaço de troca entre essas pacientes e os profissionais que as atendem.

Authors: ÜNAY Aydın , SİMSEK Serap
Published: November 2020

One of the most important objectives of wheat breeding is tolerance to waterlogging stress in high rainfall during critical stages and poorly drained areas. This study was conducted to estimate heritability parameters of characters associated with waterlogging tolerance by 5 x 5 complete diallel analysis in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The genetic material were evaluated for SPAD, CCI, MTS, Fe root and shoot contents, Mn root and shoot contents under waterlogging during Zadox Growing Stage 12 and 31 for 10 days and untreated conditions. The differences among genotypes for mostly studied characters were found to be significant under both treatments. The heritability of observed characters were controlled by both additive and dominance genes under two treatments. Also, significant reciprocals differences depends on items (c) and (d) showed the presence of maternal effects for observed characters. Consequently, the determination of maternal parents were very important for waterlogging tolerance. Moderately broad sense heritability (h2b) and low magnitude narrow sense heritability (h2n) values indicated that non-additive gene effects were more considerable on inheritance of studied characters. Therefore, the selection in later generations was recommended for waterlogging tolerant in wheat breeding programme.

Published: November 2020

This research was carried out to determine the potential of teff as a staple crop for the Mediterranean climate during 2015 and 2016. The effects of four different sowing dates (15 April, 15 May, 15 June and 15 July) on the grain yield and some yield characteristics were investigated. The teff genotype “Dessie” was used as plant material and plant height, thousand-grain weight, harvest index and grain yield were tested. Two-year average results indicated that there were significant differences in mentioned characteristics among the sowing dates. Delayed sowing dates reduced the grain yield. The highest total grain yield, 2780 kg ha-1, was obtained for the teff seeds sown on the 15th April under Mediterranean ecological conditions.
INTEGRATION-COOPERATIVE RELATIONS IN THE AGRARIAN SPHERE OF THE ECONOMY OF UKRAINE AND THE PROSPECTS OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Shpikuliak O.G. , Shvet A.A.
Published: November 2020

The purpose of this study was to reveal the essence, factors and economic mechanism of development of integration and cooperation and their role in the effective activity of entrepreneurship formation in the agrarian sphere of economy.

The economic essence of integrated and cooperative entities and the interdependence of these categories are determined. The essence of integrated structures is substantiated, the concept of integrated structure and cooperative is clarified. The development of integration processes ensures the efficiency of the agrarian economy. In the last period, the integration of integrated structures based on the joint activity of legally independent economic entities aimed at the competitiveness of producers due to the effect of scale and closed cycle has become widespread. Justifying their efforts on the basis of corporatization, integration, cooperation and clustering, business entities achieve the best results of production activity. Agricultural cooperatives may be members of large-scale agro-industrial associations.

A proposal for the characterization of integration and cooperative formations through the establishment of inter-economic links using cluster form mechanisms has been developed.

It is revealed that further development will be gained by the product organizations of the local structure of mainly organizational and legal forms of simple societies and unions. Instead, simple societies can be seen as a first step towards establishing agricultural service cooperatives.

It is proved that cooperation and integration of interested economic entities create an economic base for sustainable development not only of the material and technical potential of the associations, but also of all socio-economic infrastructure where the interests of the state and producers and consumers of products are realized while guaranteeing the state stable socio-economic relations.

Authors: Obraztsov V.
Published: November 2020

Prof. Etienne devotes his article to the analysis of three clinical cases of general paralysis depending on typhus. In the first case, the general paralysis observed by the author came on 3-4 days after he recovered from typhoid fever. It began with the lower extremities, crossed over to the upper limbs, captured the muscles of the trunk, and the patient died with the appearance of asphyxiation for several days. Paralysis developed painlessly. On the part of the rectum and urinary bladder, incontinence is noted. Such cases are usually diagnosed as Landry's disease, that is, a motor pair of an ascending type, ending with lethal bulbar phenomena, without disturbances from the side of sensitivity and without trophic disorders.

On some features of the structure of the dorsal and sympathetic nodes in birds
Authors: Timofeev D. A.
Published: November 2020

The question of the finest structure of nerve cells over the past years has attracted the attention of many histologists and neuropathologists. In this direction, very interesting studies have already been carried out in various types of invertebrates and vertebrates, and only regarding birds, as far as I know, there has not yet been more or less detailed research on this topic. True, in the works of some authors there are brief references on this issue, but there are very few such references and these works relate almost exclusively to the period preceding the last studies by Nissl and other authors, who shed new light on the structure of nerve cells.

GEARBOX FAULT CLASSIFICATION BY USING FREQUENCY BASED FEATURE EXTRACTION
Authors: BAŞARAN Murat , FİDAN Mehmet
Published: November 2020

Gearboxes are the fundamental elements of rotational systems to provide speed adjustment ratios from a rotating power source to another. In industrial applications, the existence of any kind of faults in rotational systems may be hazardous unless the early detection and maintenance procedures are applied. Incipient types of faults such as a few chipped or worn teeth at the gearbox mechanism may deteriorate and cause the maladjustment of the rotation and even the mechanism may stop to rotate which may cause loss of the production. Preventive maintenance strategies such as monitoring of the vibration signals and comparison of the frequency domain irregularities with normal operation case with healthy gearbox elements is essential to ensure safe and accurate rotational speed transmission in industrial systems. In this work, frequency domain characteristics of three different pinion conditions; healthy, a chipped tooth, and three consequent worn teeth are analyzed, and frequency domain features are proposed for classification of the pinion state. Proposed features obtained from the statistical properties of the coefficients of third level Wavelet packet decomposition. After feature extraction process, classification of the gear condition is made with different Support Vector Machine based classifiers and significant classification success observed with the proposed technique.

Authors: Saxena Kirti , Shrivastva Sachendra K. , Mehta Chaitali
Published: November 2020

Background: Objective of the study was to assess whether second generation antihistaminic alter psychomotor and cognitive function in comparison with promethazine (marked sedation; altered psychomotor and cognitive impairment).Methods: It was a single blind prospective study. Seventy five healthy human volunteers were registered, divided in five groups. These groups have received placebo, promethazine 25 mg, cetirizine 10 mg, fexofenadine 120 mg and loratadine 10 mg. Cognitive and psychomotor functions were assessed pretreatment and 60 minutes after single dose of drug(post treatment)by using a battery of standard tests (e.g. PST-Perceptual speed test, BVRT-Benton visual retention test,SSS- Stanford Sleepiness Scale, FTT-Finger tapping test etc.). The data were analyzed by student’s t-test and ANOVA test.Results: No significant effect was observed in any test parameter with placebo and fexofenadine. Significant difference with promethazine in PST, BVRT, SSS and cetirizine in DSST, FTT and loratadine in DSST were observed. Significant difference was observed in DSST between the placebo and promethazine, in SSS between promethazine and all other drugs. In FTT and BVRT significant difference between the groups were observed.Conclusions: Significant sedation and altered cognitive and psychomotor function were observed with promethazine. Cetirizine and loratadine do not cause sedation but both affect psychomotor functions. No significant effect was produced by fexofenadine. Thus, fexofenadine can safely be used in persons involved in activity where alertness is required while cetirizine and loratadine should be avoided.

Authors: C. R. Manasa , L. Kalpana , R. M. Veena
Published: November 2020

Background: Use of generic drugs and its availability is one of the less discussed topics in the medical education but at the same time holds a lot of importance in providing affordable health care to the general public.Methods: All 150 II MBBS students and 80 interns who were willing were included in the study. After explaining the aims and objectives and obtaining the informed consent, a set of 14 semi structured questionnaire were given to the students through an online link. A total duration of 15 minutes was given to complete the questionnaire and submit to prevent bias.Results: Most of the students 98 (75.4%) believe that generic drugs are non-inferior to branded drugs compared to interns 33 (49.3%) who are still doubtful about its efficacy (p=0.0003). Most of the students 101 (77.7%) and interns 52 (77.6%) think that composition, dose and indications are same as branded drugs (p=0.987). 75 (57.7%) students and 25 (37.3%) of interns know that generic medicines are marketed only after the expiry of patent period of innovator drug (p=0.005). About 102 (78.5%) students and 44 (65.7%) interns prefer to prescribe generic drugs to their patients (p=0.061). Only 34 (26.2%) students and few interns 19 (28.4%) knew about jan aushadhi sugam app (p=0.744).Conclusions: Lack of awareness about the jan aushadhi sugam app and location of nearby generic stores was acting as the main hindrance in optimal utilization of generic drugs.

Authors: Amartey Akua O. , Buabeng Kwame O. , Tengey Senam , Maru Shital M.
Published: November 2020

Background: The Malaria and HIV rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are some of the commonest tests that are used in Ghana to support malaria and HIV management/care respectively. When these devices are used, they are categorized as potentially infectious. This paper aims to highlight the availability and management of used malaria and HIV RDTs in various healthcare facilities and by health service providers in the greater Accra region of Ghana.Methods: Data was obtained from 400 health facilities including hospitals, clinics, health centres, and pharmacies and over the counter medicine seller’s shops using purposive sampling technique with the aid of structured questionnaires and observation of practices.Results: Seventy percent of the facilities (n=280) used only malaria RDTs, 29% (n=116) used both malaria and HIV RDTs and 1% (n=4) reported using HIV RDTs only. 81.7% (n=326) which formed the majority used less than 10 RDTs daily. There was poor waste segregation, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste. Facilities that had some sort of on-site treatment of waste used single chambered incinerators.Conclusions: Each of the categories of health facilities had a common practice of poor hazardous waste management. We therefore recommend that there should be enhancement of education and training of practitioners in the health facilities and the general public on the optimal use of the RDTs and disposal or the management of healthcare waste in general. The environmental protection agency and ministry of health should collaborate and enforce all the regulations on healthcare waste management in the various facilities.

Authors: Jelly Prasuna , Sharma Meenakshi , . Gunjot
Published: November 2020

Risk of COVID-19 in pregnant woman is the same as that in the general population but as pregnancy is a state of immunosuppression along with other physiological respiratory and immune changes. A pregnant woman might show more severe symptoms of COVID-19 infection. Health care employees should be permitted to meet pregnant women through managed home visits and with help of teleconsultations. Mothers should follow meticulous hand hygiene, respiratory etiquettes and social distancing because they have key role in restricting spread of infection. Protein rich diet, vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, calcium, iron and folic acid are very necessary components to be consumed by antenatal woman. It may help to protect mother and baby by having certain vaccines during pregnancy such as the influenza, tetanus and Tdap vaccines. Pregnant women with major risk of exposure/COVID-19 symptoms and no emergency obstetric issues should be stated for testing outside the hospital. Pregnant women without urgent obstetric issues awaiting results should stay at home to self-isolate. Those with emergency obstetric issues should be managed in labour room devoted to COVID-19 patients. Mode of delivery depends upon obstetrical indication and health condition of mother. Regular assessment of respiratory condition should be done during labour along with continuous electronic foetal monitoring. The WHO encourage mothers with COVID-19 to hold and breastfeed their babies because close connection is essential for new-born but to reduce risk of transmission temporary separation of new born from mother with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 is considered strongly.

This paper aims to explore experimental studies on the NOx removal process by using pilot plant packed column experimental hardware. Physical modeling based on chemical absorption equations is used to estimate the diameter concerning the height and L/G ratio. Hydrogen peroxide is used as the additive for achieving high NOx removal efficiency. The absorbent entering into the packed column has been controlled by varying its flow rate through the fractional order controller. The FOCDM-PIλDµ controller tuning parameters such as KP, τI, τD are determined using CDM (Coefficient Diagram Method) PID control strategy and the additional parameters of FOCDM-PIλDµ controller such as λ and µ are determined based on the PSO algorithm. The comparative analysis is performed with classical controllers like ZN-PID along with the CDM-PID controllers.

In recent years, China has stepped up its support to the optimization and development of railways. Meanwhile, the development of modern information technology (IT) has enhanced the economic advantages of railway logistics. To intelligently manage the inventory of railway logistics park (RLP), this paper integrates artificial neural network (ANN) into RLP inventory management. Firstly, the functional demand of RLP inventory management was analyzed comprehensively, and the main factors affecting the inventory demand were divided into different categories. Then, the authors formulated the framework of intelligent inventory management for RLP, and put forward the strategy of continuous periodic inventory monitoring. Finally, a RLP inventory prediction model was constructed based on optimized genetic algorithm (GA) and backpropagation neutral network (BPNN), and proved effective through experiments. The research results provide reference for the application of ANN in inventory management and prediction in other logistics fields.
