Published: February 2022

Our objective is to present a case of proximal tibial osteomyelitis due to Salmonella, which is infrequent in clinical practice, as well as to analyze the procedures carried out for its treatment, and the differential diagnosis of the lesion. Clinical case:
A 13-year-old male referred from another Hospital to our Hospital Children's Oncology due to a suspicion of a bone tumor in the tibia. The patient reported two-week history of knee pain associated with fever. In the radiographs taken at his center, a lytic lesion was observed in the proximal metaphysis of the tibia, which led to the performance of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). After reviewing the MRI images in our center, the neoplastic nature of the lesion was ruled out and the suspected diagnosis was an Osteomyelitis, after which the patient underwent surgery, being performed a
corticotomy and emptying of the abscess and initiating intravenous antibiotic treatment. The patient had an unremarkable postoperative course and in the culture of the extracted material Salmonella group B was obtained. The patient was
controlled with oral antibiotic, and was definitively discharged two years after the intervention. However, 3 years after that, he came to Hospital with similar symptoms. After performing some imaging tests, two multiloculated lytic lesions were observed in the proximal tibia with a perilesional inflammatory reaction, suggestive of recurrence of Osteomyelitis, for which he underwent surgery again, performing a bone window and curettage, and filling the cavity with tricalcium sulfate and antibiotic. The cultures taken were again positive for Salmonella B. After the patient's clinical and analytical progress
was correct, he was treated with oral antibiotics, and was definitively discharged two years after the intervention. Conclusion: Salmonella osteomyelitis in immunocompetent patients is a rare pathology that can simulate a neoplastic lesion if it is found in an atypical location such as metaphysis. The diagnosis must be clinical, radiological and analytical, although the definitive diagnosis will be achieved by cultures results. The definitive treatment is curettage and filling the lesion, associated with antibiotic therapy, and it is necessary to take into account that the lesion may recur.

Memory and Proactive Interference for spatially distributed items
Authors: Endress Ansgar D.
Published: February 2022

Our ability to briefly retain information is often limited. Proactive Interference (PI) might contribute to these limitations (e.g., when items in recognition tests are difficult to reject after having appeared recently). In visual Working Memory (WM), spatial information might protect WM against PI, especially if encoding items together with their spatial locations makes item-location combinations less confusable than simple items without a spatial component. Here, I ask (1) if PI is observed for spatially distributed items, (2) if it arises among simple items or among item-location combinations, and (3) if spatial information affects PI at all. I show that, contrary to views that spatial information protects against PI, PI is reliably observed for spatially distributed items except when it is weak. PI mostly reflects items that appear recently or frequently as memory items, while occurrences as test items play a smaller role, presumably because their temporal context is easier to encode. Through mathematical modeling, I then show that interference occurs among simple items rather than item-location combinations. Finally, to understand the effects of spatial information, I separate the effects of (a) the presence and (b) the predictiveness of spatial information on memory and its susceptibility to PI. Memory is impaired when items are spatially distributed, but, depending on the analysis, unaffected by the predictiveness of spatial information. In contrast, the susceptibility to PI is unaffected by either manipulation. Visual memory is thus impaired by PI for spatially distributed items due to interference from recent memory items (rather than test items or item-location combinations).

Diagnostic Approach to Autoimmune Hepatitis
Authors: Lim Kiyoung , Park Jung Gil
Published: February 2022

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic liver disease caused by unknown etiology, characterized by elevated liver enzyme, hypergammaglobulinemia, circulating autoantibodies, and histological interface hepatitis. As untreated AIH often leads to decompensated cirrhosis and even death, prompt and timely diagnosis is essential. However, about 1/3 of patients with AIH have cirrhosis at diagnosis. On the other hand, new onset acute or acute exacerbation of previous undiagnosed AIH can be presented as acute hepatitis. Thus, any patients with acute or chronic liver disease with hypergammagloblinemia without other cause should be considered to evaluate circulating non-organ specific autoantibodies for diagnosis of AIH. In case of suspected AIH, liver biopsy should be considered to evaluate its histological characteristics including interface hepatitis, plasma cell infiltration, emperipolesis, and rosettes. When the diagnosis is made, prompt treatment with prednisolone followed by combined azathioprine should be considered to improve its prognosis.

Points de vue sur la jeunesse – Volume 1
Authors: Goldson Barry
Published: February 2022

L’Europe connaît actuellement un climat économique redoutablement hostile dans lequel les conditions de crise s’intensifient. Dans ce contexte, des millions de jeunes Européens sont particulièrement désavantagés et continueront de l’être. Les conditions de crise soulèvent d’importantes questions sur les systèmes de justice des mineurs en Europe et il est opportun de réfléchir à la manière dont ces systèmes pourraient évoluer à l’avenir. Cette réflexion aboutit à deux visions. La « vision utopique » conceptualise la justice des mineurs comme évoluant constamment et progressivement vers une situation de tolérance pénale, où l’« intérêt supérieur » des enfants et des jeunes prévaut et où le recours à une intervention correctionnelle – en particulier la détention – est toujours une solution de « dernier ressort ». A l’opposé, la « vision dystopique » souligne l’émergence, la consolidation et le développement d’une « culture du contrôle » rigoureuse. A première vue, tant la vision utopique que la vision dystopique proposent des typologies conceptuelles séduisantes ou des « récits totalisateurs » qui rendent compte des tendances paneuropéennes (voire mondiales) de la justice des mineurs, mais, en fin de compte, elles sont toutes les deux particulièrement insuffisantes. Aucune des deux visions ne tient compte, de manière exhaustive et défendable, de la complexité, de la nature contradictoire et de la profonde incohérence de la justice transnationale des mineurs en Europe et/ou au-delà de ses frontières. Néanmoins, le moment est crucial, car chaque pays européen se trouve face à des choix essentiels quant au type de société qu’il veut construire pour l’avenir. Ce que cela signifiera pour la justice des mineurs en 2020 est loin d’être clair, mais nous avons des raisons de penser que – malgré les conditions de crise – le « pragmatisme humain » finira par s’imposer.
Points de vue sur la jeunesse – Volume 1
Authors: Hadzibegovic Ajsa
Published: February 2022

L’article intitulé « Jeunes entrepreneurs : cap sur 2020 » aborde les tendances concernant l’emploi et l’éducation des jeunes et l’utilisation de nouvelles technologies. L’auteur fonde sa réflexion sur les conclusions décrites dans le Rapport 2012 de l’UE sur la jeunesse et sur les possibles changements auxquels il estime que l’on peut s’attendre au cours des années à venir. Plus précisément, l’article examine l’éducation et les transformations qu’elle doit subir, ainsi que les relations entre l’éducation, en particulier l’éducation non formelle, et l’employabilité des jeunes. L’auteur analyse le rôle que les jeunes pourraient potentiellement jouer dans la société lorsqu’ils bénéficient du « bon » processus éducationnel et imagine que les jeunes pourraient jouer un rôle prépondérant dans la construction de futures sociétés durables. L’article se penche également sur la redéfinition de la notion de sociétés transitionnelles sous l’angle des développements rapides et de la modernisation des sociétés contemporaines. L’auteur s’attèle à la tâche d’établir des parallèles entre la situation des jeunes en ex-Yougoslavie dans les années 1990, après la guerre, et dans la nouvelle Europe unie de 2020. Les difficultés liées au fait de vivre dans une société transitionnelle, comme le sera certainement l’Europe en 2020, ainsi que leurs implications pour les jeunes sont analysées.

Selon cet article, les jeunes s’impliquent davantage dans le débat sociétal lorsque les structures formelles de participation ne sont pas suffisamment développées. L’article analyse l’étendue de la culture démocratique en passant en revue les différentes théories de la démocratie. La démocratie représentative, et sa conception idéale des citoyens qui élisent des délégations, contraste avec les idéaux de démocratie directe, participative, délibérative et de contre-démocratie, et, respectivement, avec les idéaux de prise de décision et de participation directes, de débats et de surveillance démocratiques. Ces perspectives théoriques sont associées aux résultats d’études empiriques sur les jeunes qui montrent que les responsables disposent de plus en plus de méthodes pour mener des politiques utilisées quotidiennement par les jeunes. A titre d’exemple pratique, l’article analyse trois cas d’étude et de promotion de la participation des jeunes. L’auteur soutient que la question d’une jeunesse désintéressée et passive peut être mal comprise, car la nature de la démocratie à laquelle les jeunes sont censés, de plus, participer n’est pas fondée sur une compréhension suffisamment large de la démocratie.

The purpose of the present investigation is to critically examine decolonial feminisms’ epistemologies and practices in order to open up the debate on decoloniality and gender in the South of the world, in particular focusing on the Latin American context. Employing an analysis of the historical developments of white hegemonic feminism, the article offers a reflection on its failure to universalize women’s struggles, presenting a discursive examination of the primary critiques generated in the Souths of the world, including the Souths of the North. Decolonial feminisms are, thus, investigated as a form of theoretical and praxical response to the aforementioned critiques, generated in relation to the discursive and actual perpetuation of the material and symbolic legacies of colonialism. It is here argued that decolonial feminisms employ this alternative perspective as a de facto standpoint, by rooting their principles in anti-racist, anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist narratives, and with some strong established goals, such as social and environmental justice, the rights of indigenous people, and the decolonization of knowledge.
Criar forças é criar Quilombos: boxeadoras, coletividade tática e ativismo comunitário de jovens negras no Brasil
Authors: Araújo Antônia Gabriela P. de
Published: February 2022

Este artigo intitulado Criar força1 é criar Quilombos: boxeadoras, coletividade tática e ativismo comunitário de jovens negras no Brasil irá, a partir das reflexões sobre questões de geografias raciais e mulheres negras na diáspora africana, enfatizar a atuação do feminismo de meninas negras e o ativismo comunitário delas nas favelas do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, através de uma arena de arte marcial, o boxe. As relações de gênero e raça serão discutidas entrelaçadas com questões dos feminismos de periferia, políticas dos esportes e ativismo, uma vez que essas mulheres negras são boxeadoras e atuantes em suas comunidades a partir de suas profissões como atletas. O enredo se faz por meio de situações cotidianas envolvendo essas boxeadoras e seus modos de produzir comunidades, corpos e projetos políticos feministas nas periferias.
Nossos passos vêm de longe: Almerinda Farias Gama e o ativismo político de uma mulher negra na construção da luta feminista brasileira
Authors: Tenório Patrícia Cibele
Published: February 2022

Este artigo tem como objeto analisar as múltiplas frentes de atuação política de Almerinda Farias Gama (1899-199), sufragista e feminista negra que teve papel fundamental na construção da emancipação política feminina no Brasil, em especial nos anos de 1930. Embora as conquistas políticas das mulheres brasileiras sejam constantemente creditadas unicamente à luta de um grupo específico, sufragistas brancas e pertencentes a famílias abastadas, trajetórias como as de Almerinda fazem emergir a presença de mulheres negras e integrantes da classe trabalhadora assalariada no palco dos acontecimentos históricos que levaram à obtenção dos direitos políticos femininos. Detentora de uma enorme energia política, Almerinda diversificou sua militância para além do movimento organizado de mulheres. Ela esteve a frente do associativismo proposto pela Ala Moça do Brasil, participou da fundação do Partido Socialista Proletário do Brasil (PSPB), e também foi uma militante combativa no movimento sindical no Rio de Janeiro, no contexto dos primeiros anos de governo do presidente Getúlio Vargas. Sua competência, entusiasmo e capacidade de reinvindicação, fazem de Almerinda um farol que ilumina os passos de uma nova geração de mulheres negras brasileiras que disputam os espaços institucionais de poder.
Images botaniques entre l’art et la science : Essai d’une typologie des différents types d’images
Authors: Dickel Hans
Published: February 2022

La collection d’images et de livres botaniques issus de quatre siècles, que le médecin nurembergeois Christoph Jacob Trew avait compilés au 18e siècle par intérêt pour l’histoire de la science, documente l’histoire commune et séparée de représentations artistiques et scientifiques de plantes. Après une comparaison historique, il est question de leur distinction systématique : comment, depuis quand et pourquoi distingue-t-on deux types d’images, scientifique et artistique ? Les « lectures attentives » de l’histoire visuelle de deux plantes, deux plantes qui sont représentées dans la plus grande part des livres botaniques de l’époque et qui offrent la possibilité d’une comparaison directe, celle de la fraise des bois et de celle de l’iris, proposent de démontrer ce développement. L’auteur discerne des moments charnières dans l’histoire de la représentation botanique avec notamment l’invention de nouveaux instruments d’optique (loupe, microscope), la revendication méthodique d’une nomenclature sans ambiguïté (Descartes) et finalement la taxonomie des plantes dans le Systema naturae (1735) de Carl von Linné. À la suite de ce traité, la relation directe entre la vue et le savoir fut mise en doute, et l’intérêt botanique s’opposa peu à peu à l’observation individuelle de la nature.
L’environnement subaquatique au prisme de l’aquarium
Authors: Montagne Quentin
Published: February 2022

Comment appréhende-t-on l’environnement subaquatique ? À l’heure d’un perfectionnement toujours plus accru des moyens de prise de vue, d’une popularisation grandissante de la plongée en amateur ou de la diffusion désormais régulière d’images et de documentaires sous-marins, le spectacle des mondes sous la surface est presque devenu un leitmotiv. Les vues de fonds aquacoles sont désormais habituelles, communes, normées, balisées. Elles n’offrent apparemment plus de véritables surprises au public. Ce milieu n’a pourtant été dévoilé que récemment. À l’exception de quelques récits, tels la légende médiévale d’Alexandre le Grand ou le Telliamed de Benoît de Maillet en 1748, il demeure longtemps inconnu et, plus étonnant encore, in-imaginé. Si les poissons, les coquillages ou les cétacés sont sérieusement étudiés dès l’Antiquité, la question de leur environnement naturel est quant à elle pour ainsi dire ignorée jusqu’au xixe siècle. Ce n’est qu’à partir de ce moment que l’humanité commence véritablement à percer les mystères qui se cachent sous les flots, qu’il s’agisse des océans ou des cours d’eau douce. Expéditions océanographiques, développement de la biologie marine, mise au point de scaphandres pieds lourds ou encore géographie du fond des mers marquent ce siècle, abreuvant l’imaginaire de l’époque comme en témoignent les aventures de Jules Verne ou de Conan Doyle. L’invention du monde aquatique, au sens archéologique du terme, néanmoins, ne découle nullement de son exploration directe par des plongeurs, savants ou amateurs. Elle provient d’un dispositif relevant autant de la science que de l’art : l’aquarium. Mis au point en 1850, et précédant d’environ cinquante ans les premiers clichés sous-marins de Louis Boutan, ce réservoir demeure pendant près d’un siècle le principal moyen de percevoir les aires englouties. Cet article n’a d’autre objectif que d’aborder le rôle de l’aquarium dans notre rapport à ces territoires. Modèle originel, véritable schème du monde subaquatique, l’aquarium marque de son empreinte les représentations et reconstitutions qui en sont faites, autant que la manière de le voir et de l’apprécier de visu. Loin d’être remplacé par d’autres médias comme la photographie ou la télévision, son influence transparaît encore de nos jours, jusque dans la reconnaissance d’un « paysage subaquatique », notion ô combien problématique.
Des images notationnelles : le système isotype
Authors: Anne-Braun Alexis
Published: February 2022

Otto Neurath participe à la création à Vienne du Musée de l’Économie et de la Société. Entouré de plusieurs collaborateurs, il y développe une méthode innovante de présentation visuelle et de muséographie. La méthode qui sera bientôt connue sous le nom de « méthode viennoise de statistique visuelle » s’attache à présenter des faits économiques et sociaux à une large audience au moyen d’aides visuelles. Ces dernières prennent la forme de diagrammes offrant au spectateur, parfois illettré, de saisir rapidement un certain nombre de relations économiques et sociales signifiantes. Dans la continuité directe de la statistique visuelle, Neurath a essayé de formaliser des règles de production des diagrammes et images isotype. Afin d’examiner la nature du fonctionnement symbolique de ces images informationnelles, je m’appuie sur les travaux de Nelson Goodman. L’idée que je défends est que nous pouvons comprendre avantageusement les images isotype comme des icônes abstraites, appartenant à des Systèmes quasi-notationnels.
Raisonner sur des images. Restaurer la Sainte-Anne.
Authors: Leveau Pierre
Published: February 2022

Il existe au moins un domaine où les images scientifiques et artistiques sont similaires. C’est celui de la conservation-restauration des biens culturels. À partir d’une étude de cas, on montre que les analogies faites dans ce domaine par les historiens d’art ne sont pas les conclusions, mais des prémisses : ce sont les indices des raisonnements abductifs qu’ils soumettent aux scientifiques du patrimoine dans le cadre des raisonnements expérimentaux à finalité pratique qu’ils font ensemble. Les conservateurs-restaurateurs qui interviennent sur l’œuvre sont en position d’articuler ces deux perspectives, entre l’art et la science. On identifie dans cet article les points de bascule d’un régime iconographique à l’autre et l’on modélise cette bascule de point, en empruntant au cinéma quelques concepts. Les résultats de cette étude de cas devront être confrontés à d’autres, pour livrer aux experts de la conservation-restauration une sémiotique qui leur soit utile.
L’architecte et le botaniste : spécimens particuliers et images raisonnées du monde végétal dans la Flore ornementale de Victor Ruprich-Robert
Authors: Locatelli Aurélien
Published: February 2022

En publiant la Flore ornementale, l’architecte Victor Ruprich-Robert (1820-1887) initie une transformation des représentations du monde végétal, dédiée aux arts décoratifs et à l’architecture. Dans cet ouvrage, paru en livraisons entre 1866 et 1876, l’ambivalence des images est prégnante. Celles-ci, qui oscillent entre une description artistique ou scientifique du modèle végétal, conduisent à « une synthèse, une sorte de grammaire de l’ornement », qui s’appuie sur des modèles architecturés tout en s’éloignant des individualités du modèle vivant. Ce processus est amorcé à la faveur de l’association entre Victor Ruprich-Robert et le botaniste Édouard André (1840-1911), lequel identifie les plantes reproduites au sein de l’ouvrage et s’assure de leur fidélité à la nature. Véritable concentré des réflexions entre le botaniste, garant du respect de l’anatomie végétale, et de l’architecte à la recherche d’une flore applicable à l’ornement, un dialogue se met en place, permettant d’illustrer la complexité de la transcription du vivant par le dessin à la fin du xixe siècle.
Image, imagination et cinématographie dans l’œuvre de Jacob von Uexküll
Authors: Campion Yannick
Published: February 2022

Durant la seconde moitié du xixe siècle, la photographie accentue l’écart entre les images dignes d’intérêts scientifiques et celles appréhendées artistiquement. Au xxe siècle, le cinéma rebat en quelque sorte les cartes : le pouvoir quasi magique de l’expérience cinématographique remet en question les oppositions subjectif/objectif et art/science. Cet article propose d’illustrer ce basculement à la lumière du parcours de Jakob von Uexküll. Dans les premières années du xxe siècle, son utilisation de la chronophotographie modifie son approche empirique et lui permet de dépasser certaines contradictions théoriques. De 1909 à 1934, son développement du concept d’Umwelt repose en grande partie sur l’utilisation du cinématographe. Utilisant le concept d’image pour décrire la façon dont les animaux supérieurs organisent le flux de signes qu’ils perçoivent et projettent au sein de leurs mondes, Uexküll en vint à décrire la perception animale comme analogue à celle d’un film, au sein duquel l’imagination joue un rôle central.
Design of Sustainable Earthquake Resisting Structures
Authors: Grigorian Mark , Moghadam Abdolreza Sarvghad , Targhi Marzie Ansary , Targhi Razie Ansari
Published: February 2022

The main purpose of multifunction design (MD) is to ensure the sustainability of structural systems under different seismic conditions. MD compares and analyses current and projected states of response for changing natural conditions, such as earthquakes, controls seismic behaviour, modification and replacement of existing parts, optimizes shapes, sizes and energy dissipation as planned. If nature were to design an earthquake resistant structure (ERS) it would probably resort to MD and Performance Control (PC) rather than conventional methods of design. Unlike conventional methods, MD also addresses the possibilities of post-earthquake realignment and repairs (PERR) of ERS. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that resilient structures can be materialized, through emulation of MD without resorting to untenable costs and technologies. In the interim a number of relatively new ideas including Structures of Uniform construction, Multifunction detailing and the Fail-safe (FS) concept have also been introduced.
