LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK OF THE TAXATION SYSTEM - “THE MAIN PILLAR OF BUDGET REVENUES”
Authors:   Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu, CRISTEA Loredana Andreea , UNGUREANU Dragos Mihai ,   Spiru Haret University of Bucharest
Published: September 2022

In the context of a market economy, a direct intervention of that State is not possible, which is why leverage is used to facilitate the state influence on the economy. The purpose of the study will be based, mainly, on shaping the fiscal policies adopted in the European Union and Romania's alignment with it. The fiscal policy of the Member States of the European Union is an important point of the general policies at EU level. In order to achieve a climate of economic and financial stability, the fiscal sovereignty of the Member States needs to be aligned with the convergence criteria at European level. As tax revenues contribute significantly to the shape of the state budget, their change would have both positive and negative influences on the socio-economic situation in the country. . In order to understand the formation of the state budget, the research methodology will require a qualitative research. This will be done by highlighting the tax legislation applied at European level and by delimiting the main features of the tax system. The preliminary results of this study refer to the provision of a general framework on how to effectively manage the tax system by tax authorities, so that the fight against tax fraud, tax evasion can lead to economic and fiscal union. It was concluded that the main function of the European Union with regard to the tax system is different from that of national tax laws. It is intended to develop rules and principles that curb and limit the power of national systems, without providing alternative taxation models.

Introduced two decades ago, the digital economy concept became a subject of interest for governments and businessmen, politicians and researchers. This paper aims at highlighting the current state of research and trends on digital economy. There is no previous evidence of a global bibliometric analysis on digital economy. Therefore, we conducted a bibliometric analysis on digital economy literature, to identify area of interest and potential for future research. Through this research we aimed to answer the following questions: How many scientific papers on digital economy have been published in journals? What are the most productive journals, countries and authors on the subject of digital economy? What are the most cited papers on digital economy? What are the most frequent keywords in published documents on digital economy? The data used for the research were extracted from the Web of Science database, collections Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, and Emerging Sources Citation Index, and the processing of collected information was done using package biblioshiny for bibliometrix from statistical R software. The results, obtained with the mentioned computer tools, answer the research questions. Research production and publication of documents on digital economy are increasing. As no bibliometric analysis on digital economy has been identified in the Web of Science database, this paper is intended to cover this gap

Authors: W. Jei  , J. Lim  , H. Hoa
Published: September 2022

We combine CdS semiconductor quantum dots and single-crystalline rutile TiO2 nanorod arrays to produce a practical quantum dot sensitized solar cell. A facile wet-chemical approach was implemented for growth of this CdS@TiO2 architecture. Rutile TiO2 nanorod arrays with lengths of 1–2 mm and diameters of 40–60 nm was synthesized on ﬂuorine-doped tin oxide glass by a hydrothermal process in a titanium tetrachloride precursor solution. CdS quantum dots with a size of 5–10 nm was deposited onto a TiO2 nanorod surface using an ultrasonic-assisted chemical bath deposition method. The resulting CdS quantum dots and TiO2 nanorods formed a type-II heterojunction and showed increased absorption over visible light range. Incident photon-to-current conversion efﬁciencies (IPCE) as high as 85% and power conversion efﬁciencies of 2.54% were obtained using a polysulﬁde electrolyte
Face the Screen: Panacea Outlet for the Conduct of Examinations in the Time of COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Ojo Olugbenga
Published: September 2022

The increase in the use of technology devices and development of various software applications the world over has enabled identifiable solutions to various human problems that looked like Herculean tasks in the past. In the ODL mode of education, as leaners juggle study, work and the responsibility that family life entails, the flexibility characteristic of ODL is paving way for the expected continuity in the teaching and learning process through technology. These include examinations and evaluation processes. Educational institutions in Nigeria before now, based only on traditional methods of learning, that is, they follow the traditional set up of face-to-face lectures including term or semester examinations in a classroom. With the advent of distance learning mode, many universities running dual mode of education along with the only single mode university available in the West African coast - the National Open University of Nigeria, have started blended learning. Although many of the existing colleges and universities are stuck with old procedures of teaching in various ways, the narrative changed when the deadly disease called Covid-19 caused by a Corona Virus (SARS-CoV-2) shook the entire world. Part of the challenges brought about by this World Health Organization declared pandemic was how to ensure continuity in the process of teaching and learning. It is against this background that exigency of time have made it mandatory for institutions of learning to fully turn to technology for solutions to examinations and evaluation process, hence, the reason for virtual examinations which made students to face the screen instead of the traditional assessment system facilitated through the face-to-face classroom environment. Very many conventional institutions of learning which were reluctant to change their pedagogical approach along with the technologically inclined institutions such as NOUN took the advantage of the situation to introduce virtual examinations which points to the fact that students must face the screen if they were to be evaluated. The aim of this paper is to share the experience this mode of examinations entails in the developing countries of West Africa for the purpose of improvement and enabling students outside the shores of the locations of various institutions the opportunity it portend for access to education.

MEMPERKUAT DAYA PEMERINTAHAN GAMPONG PADA MASA PANDEMI COVID-19 DI KABUPATEN ACEH UTARA DAN KOTA LHOKSEUMAWE, ACEH
Authors: Fasya Teuku Kemal
Published: September 2022

This paper entitled “Strenghtening the Village Governmentality during the Covid-19 Pandemic in North Aceh District and Lhokseumawe City, Aceh” discusses village creativity and independence. Qualitative social method is used, with an ethnographic approach; a social research model that emphasizes the inductivity and in-depth aspects of field social research. In practice, the ethnographic approach used is more of a netnographic in nature, because some datas and references were obtained from online and digital information sources. The data in this study were collected through primary sources, namely field observations and in-depth interviews and through secondary sources consisting of document and literature studies to enrich the perspective and scientific concepts of writing. The discussion part of this paper looks at the creativity of the gampong government in Lhokseumawe City and North Aceh District - two identical level II regional governments - in carrying out their roles, especially in implementing Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning the Village. The Covid-19 pandemic has indeed disrupted entire models of government and business, thus affecting the performance of village governance in Aceh. However, some other weaknesses caused by social capital and the impact of past conflicts are also present so that the gampong government has not fulfilled its desire to improve the productive economy of the people as well as good governance capacity. There is an opportunity to revive economic resources at the village level by establishing tourism objects that are environmentally and socially friendly, even though it is still far from the ideal concept of well-established tourism villages such as those found in Yogyakarta, East Java, Bali, West Sumatra, etc.

Insurance as a way of protection against terrorist risks
Authors: Batrova Tatiana , Zaitsev Vladimir
Published: September 2022

The risks of property losses caused by terrorist activities have not been isolated by insurers for a very long time. The situation has changed dramatically due to the events of September 11, 2001, which demonstrated the need to form a new approach to solving the problem of insurance coverage of damage caused by terrorist attacks. Accordingly, the purpose of this particular study was to determine the optimal model of insurance against terrorist risks. Therefore, several approaches, based on the analysis of Russian and foreign legislation, to solving this problem have been identified. At the same time, reinsurance has become a common mechanism aimed at protecting the interests of insurers, which in most cases is carried out with the participation of the state. However, state resources are formed for these purposes and are used in such cases in different ways. The targeted use of funds is ensured through the use of special funds, the funds of which in some states (France, Israel) are formed at the expense of targeted tax deductions. In addition, differences can be traced in the scope and procedure of State participation in covering the damage caused. In some countries (for example, in Belgium), this obligation arises only if the problem cannot be solved through a reinsurance system.
Threats and challenges to the collective security of eurasia (on the example of the geopolitical cosmology of the south caucasus)
Authors: Karabushenko Pavel , Vartumyan Arushan , Shebzukhova Tatiana
Published: September 2022

The modern world is facing numerous challenges and threats posed by the political realities of international relations.The instability of them leads to the destruction of the geopolitical world view, which needs constant clarification and adjustment. Geopolitical cosmology, which is engaged in creating a realistic picture of international relations, will help us to give an objective assessment of current international events. The geopolitical analysis of the Eurasian space, where there are always many different kinds of contradictions, threats and conflicts, is of particular interest in this regard. This region has the richest historical traditions, and a modern assessment of the objective political reality is impossible without taking them into account. The authors used a comprehensive methodological approach, which allows give full consideration to the dynamics of international events and constantly changing geopolitical strategies. The main goal of this study is to analyze the conflicts constantly occurring in this region, which are evidence of the confrontation between the leading powers defending their national interests here. It is in Eurasia that the world "weather" of international relations is formed. It is here the national interests of many leading countries that have nothing to do with this region, but strive to demonstrate their importance, collide. And the countries of this region itself must learn to defend, independently or jointly, their national interests, ensure their security and peacefully resolve urgent conflict situations.
Principles of international law as source of regulating contractual relations complicated by foreign elements
Authors: Dashin Aleksey , Simatova Elena , Shapovalov Anatoly , Pratsko Gennady
Published: September 2022

This research is dedicated to the problem of essence and classification of international private law principles applicable to international private contracts. It studies existing doctrinal opinions towards systematization criteria of international private law principles including that in relation to other branches of law. The authors come to the conclusion on the essence and characteristics of those international private law principles that are applied to contractual relations complicated by a foreign element and that are reflected in the international practice. By subdividing the international private law principles by extent of relation to primary regulation methods (collision law and material law) and taking into account a close tie of this law branch with other branches, in particular, international public and civil law, given the goals of this research, the authors come to the conclusions that regulation of trans-border contractual relations correspond to the following principles: justice, good faith and rationality of participants of legal relations; autonomy of parties’ will; the closest tie. The substantiation of the above gives quotes of international documents widely spread as lex mercatoria – UNIDROIT principles, principles of the European contractual law, and Hauge principles of law selection as applicable to international commercial contracts.

Published: September 2022

This article discusses the prospects for further constitutional and legal reform in order to maximize the full enjoyment of human rights and freedoms in the Russian Federation. The article attempts to analyze from new positions the most problematic issues of implementing the principles of Russian constitutional law, which traditionally are the rights and freedoms of man and citizen. The authors pay special attention to the analysis of the categorical framework and methodological approaches to the problem under study. The main theoretical and methodological approaches are studied, which include: dialectical, structural-functional, comparative legal and other methods. A comparative analysis of the terms “rights” and “freedoms” of man is of considerable interest, during which similar features and differences are revealed. The authors analyzed the views of leading Russian scientists. In the course of the study, the authors revealed the mechanisms and guarantees ensuring individual freedoms (economic, political, ideological and legal ones). In conclusion, the authors come to the logical conclusion that individual rights and freedoms are the most important factor characterizing modern Russian society.
On shaping the constitutional principles and understanding the nature of their effectiveness in the legal life of society
Authors: Trofimov Vasily
Published: September 2022

The theory of shaping the constitutional principles as the leading principles of law in a multi-level pyramid of legal forms (in fact, the theory of the legal form of the highest level) is set forward. The dialectical approach, the method of rising from the abstract to the concrete in understanding the regular law formation processes, the theory of factors, the theory of law formation, the critical reflection method, comparative analysis, systemic and sociological-legal approaches were used as the methodological foundations of the research. Two main groups of approaches to understanding the nature of the principles of constitutional law, namely subjective-right-positivist and objective-social ones, are presented. The subjective-legal positivist approach to the problem of the emergence of the principles of law in general and the principles of constitutional law, in particular, is critically assessed. It is noted that the objective-social approach to understanding the nature of the principles of law is more true; it allows to answer the question of the unconditional effectiveness of constitutional principles in the legal life of society, despite changing market circumstances in politics, economics etc. It is argued that shaping the constitutional principles is based on the most powerful and fundamental factors in the development of social and legal life. Some examples with the principles of the priority of human and civil rights and freedoms, the rule of law, the concept of separation of powers etc. are given. It is concluded that the principles of law express the objective laws of social and legal life and this gives them inviolability and all-time practical significance.
Principles of equality and justice as absolute values of Russian constitutionalism
Authors: Stepanenko Ravia , Khamidullina Farida , Sabirova Lidia , Soldatova Alena , Ashrafzyanov Ilshat
Published: September 2022

The article considers common legal principals of equality and justice whose significance is increasing in the conditions of uncertainty and instability of the modern public order. Negativism of differentiation processes and increased social inequality studied by the legal science draws the attention of researchers to the cognition of constitutionalism ideas that can be used (as the authors believe) to overcome unfavorable situations related with adherence to and protection of the rights and freedoms of citizens defined by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The principles of equality and justice having absolute value in the system of value and mentality institutes must serve a basis for the methodology of rule-making and enforcement activity. The authors also highlight the need to observe succession in the doctrine and practice of constitutionalism, namely the need for support in achieving pre-revolutionary and soviet legal science. In this light, the liberal approach to the principles of equality and justice cannot take the monopoly position and must be supplemented by other ideas developed in the science. Taking into account methodological positions, the specific features of implementing the principles of equality and justice must be the subject of doctrinal researches of the theory of state and law and constitutional law in the methodological synthesis of interdisciplinary relations.

Published: September 2022

The article considers the content of the concept of “criminological situation” in the criminological aspect, determines its structure. The differentiation of the concept of “criminological situation” with related concepts used in the special literature is given. The concept of criminological situation is proposed, taking into account its division into the main constituent elements, the mechanism of interaction between phenomena and the result of this interaction is shown. The main features of a criminological situation are determined, these features are defined by common regular connections and dependencies between the phenomena of social development and crime at the levels of the development of the social environment, the formation of the system of social relations, the state and development of social processes management. Considering a criminological situation as a dynamic category, the authors determined the affecting criminogenic, anti-criminogenic or functional factors. It is concluded that their in-depth study and analysis create favorable conditions for generating organizational-tactical decisions, taking into account the real possibilities of society and the state in combating crime, determining the main directions, strategies. Innovative methods for studying, analyzing and assessing a criminological situation, as well as the ways, forms of combating crime are considered. A critical judgment is made about why some developments and recommendations proposed by specialists, despite the high scientific-technical level, do not bring the desired effect in practice. It is concluded that a criminological situation acts as a social reality, an objectively given phenomenon, and therefore its assessment should be the same for all institutions of the state and society.
Waste Heat Energy Recovering to Increase The Efficiency of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines Using Thermoelectric Generators
Authors: Murad Karmand Salahadden , Aslan Sami Ridha
Published: September 2022

The waste heat energy discharged into the atmosphere by a car engine's fuel consumption provides more than 70% of the energy. We can utilise waste heat energy in a car's exhaust system if a thermoelectric generator is used to convert the lost thermal energy into electricity. A thermoelectric generator is a device that uses the Seebeck effect to turn temperature differences into electricity. A thermoelectric generator is a device that uses the Seebeck effect to transform temperature differences into electrical energy. Because the thermoelectric generator requires a temperature difference on both sides to produce electrical energy, the ability to generate electrical power by thermoelectric generation using the missing thermal energy from the vehicle's exhaust system and relatively cool surrounding air temperature has been tested at various air velocity and speeds. On the other hand, we examine the feasibility of installing thermoelectric generation on the engine's front radiator, as well as the differences between utilizing lost thermal energy in the exhaust system and the automobile radiator. The goal of this article is to look at whether a thermoelectric generator could convert waste heat from a vehicle's exhaust system and radiator into usable electrical energy. As a result, laboratory equipment was constructed to mimic a car's exhaust system and radiator in this investigation. Changes in speed, vehicle load, and surrounding environmental variables affect the surface temperature of the exhaust pipe and radiator. The thermoelectric generator's other side will be cooled by air passing over the fins. These factors will result in a temperature difference on both sides of the thermoelectric generator, which will have a direct impact on the quantity of electrical power the device can generate. After the thermoelectric generator has undergone different operating conditions by changing the velocity of the air passing on one side to cool it down, the temperature of the other side will rise when exposed to the heat flux that represents the exhaust surface temperature and radiator surface temperature at those operating conditions. We predict that at 20°C, the output power for each thermoelectric generator device is 1.18 watts in the best environmental conditions that produce the highest temperature difference. Using ANSYS FLUENT SOFTWARE, it was determined that at a high-temperature difference of 45 and above, an increase in the temperature difference by 3°C increases the electrical output energy from As a result, we can anticipate how much electrical energy the thermoelectric generator gadget will produce under various climatic conditions.
CHARACTERIZING AIRFLOW IN THE ANNULAR COMBUSTOR DIFFUSER OF AN AVIATION GAS TURBINE ENGINE
Authors:   Le Quy Don Technical University, Pham Vu Thanh Nam
Published: September 2022

In the combustor of aviation gas turbine engines, the diffuser’s role is to reduce the airflow velocity (generated from the compressor) to restrain the pressure loss. Characterizing the airflow in the diffuser is essential for further studies on the processes occurring in the combustor such as fuel atomization, mixing, and combustion. This paper has successfully developed a 3D simulation model using Star CCM+ to characterize airflow in an annular combustor diffuser equipped in a gas turbine engine. The results obtained from this study show that this diffuser reduces airflow velocity by 65%, increases static pressure by 2%, whereas the total pressure slightly reduces (the maximal reduction is 0.8% in the emergency regime) in comparison with the conditions at the compressor outlet. The amount of air directly supplying into the burner attains about 20%, in which the amount of air passing through the swirler makes up 9% of the total amount under the nominal regime.
STUDY ON ACOUSTIC PROPERTY OF HIGH POROSITY OPEN-CELL FOAMS BY HOMOGENIZATION APPROACH
Authors:   Le Quy Don Technical University, Trinh Van Hai
Published: September 2022

This paper demonstrates a homogenization approach to characterize the effect of cell size of open-cell foam materials on their acoustic properties such as effective density, effective bulk modulus, and sound absorption. The three-dimensional representative volume element of the local morphology of open-cell foams is first reconstructed. The homogenization technique is then employed to calculate the effective acoustic properties of the foam materials. After a validation step, the proposed numerical framework is finally adapted to investigate the cell size-induced effect on the acoustic properties of foam-based absorbers. The obtained results indicate that, for a given high porosity, the tuned cell size can bring the desired effective and sound-absorbing properties. For two considered layers, the averaging cell size in the range of 0.15-0.45 mm shows better acoustic performance with an absorption ability > 80 %.
Sonicization of Gender in Tanzania Kwaya Congregational Music
Authors: Barz Gregory
Published: September 2022

In this article, I introduce issues related to the embodiment of gendered sound in contemporary Tanzanian Christian choral communities (East Africa). By pulling back the layers of meaning that frequently veil congregational singing, I suggest that a focus on the routinely reiterated sounds produced by kwayas (KiSwahili for “choir”), that participate within that greater congregational space leads to a normalization of the performance of a localized gendering process—the sounding of sopranos, for example—that I label “sonic gendering.” This proposal confirms Judith Butler’s admonition that it is through rearticulation and repetition, such as when a kwaya continually affirms sonic gendering daily, that constitutive gender norms are reworked within a given cultural context (2011[1993], ix). I suggest that everyday singing in a kwaya facilitates the re-performing, re-consumption, and continuous re-embodiment of a process of gendering.
School Accountability At The Intersection Of Race, Povertyand Teacher Quality
Authors: Latiker Tony , Wheaton Deidre , Mozee Sam , Camel Dawn
Published: September 2022

This article examines the relationship between teacher certification, race, and socio-economic status and their impact on school district accountability ratings in Mississippi. Our goal is to understand better the confluence of factors impacting school accountability ratings to inform proactive change. We sampled 143 public school districts and utilized correlation and regression techniques to determine the relationship and the predictive value among variables. Our findings indicate that the percentage of African American students, poverty, and teacher certification type are all correlated to district accountability ratings. Furthermore, both the percentage of African American students and the percentage of students living in poverty in Mississippi school districts are strong predictors of school accountability ratings.
COLLABORATION ENTRE PHARMACIENS D'OFFICINES ET MEDECINS GENERALISTES, POINTS DE VUE DES PHARMACIENS ET DES MEDECINS
Authors: TECHER L , DIJOLS A , BUDOWSKI M , LEGRAND J
Published: September 2022

Contexte. Alors que la collaboration entre pharmaciens et médecins généralistes s’est développée à l’étranger et a prouvé son efficacité sur de nombreux indicateurs de santé, elle n’est que peu répandue en France. Objectifs. L’objectif principal de cette étude était d’explorer les perceptions qu’ont les pharmaciens d’officine et les médecins généralistes de leur relation ou collaboration. L’objectif secondaire était de faire ressortir des pistes d’amélioration possible de cette collaboration. Mé thode. Étude qualitative avec analyse inspirée de la théorisation ancrée. Dix-huit entretiens semi-dirigés de pharmaciens et médecins généralistes d’Île-de-France ont eu lieu entre mai et novembre 2019. Résultats. Lors de cette étude, il ressort une relation superficielle et unilatérale, fondée sur des appels téléphoniques passés majoritairement à l’initiative du pharmacien pour des problèmes d’ordonnance, sans réelle collaboration. Le vécu global reste tout de même positif, et les pharmaciens et les médecins souhaitent s’investir davantage dans un travail collaboratif grâce à des rencontres interprofessionnelles régulières pour une meilleure prise en charge possible du patient. Nous proposons un modèle explicatif des mécanismes qui sous-tendent la mise en place de la collaboration entre médecins et pharmaciens : les quatre piliers, définition des rôles, définitions des besoins, rencontres et communication, viennent se poser sur le socle de compétence-confiance. Sur ces piliers vient se poser la collaboration sous forme d’un triangle médecin-pharmacien, avec au sommet le patient. Conclusion. La collaboration doit avoir pour socle la confiance et la reconnaissance des compétences de l’autre. Il ressort qu’il faut veiller à une définition claire des rôles et des attentes de chacun, grâce à des rencontres régulières et à l’aide d’une communication efficace.

Introduction. Les demandeurs d’asile (DA) présentent un état de santé fragilisé par les traumatismes qu’ils ont subi, nécessitant une prise en charge médicale adaptée. Parallèlement, ils rencontrent de multiples barrières à l’accès aux soins engendrant non-recours et renoncement aux soins. Objectifs. Explorer les représentations qu’ont les DA du médecin généraliste (MG), et les facteurs modélisant l’accroche aux soins des DA et leurs attentes en médecine générale. Méthode. Étude qualitative inspirée de la théorisation ancrée. Entretiens individuels semi-dirigés auprès de DA recrutés à Marseille. Les entretiens ont été menés jusqu’à suffisance des données. Ils ont été enregistrés puis intégralement retranscrits. Une analyse inductive a été menée, triangulée par 2 chercheurs. Résultats. En quête de repères après les épreuves traumatisantes subies, les DA trouvaient dans la consultation avec le MG un lieu où les souffrances pouvaient s’exprimer. La rencontre entre le MG et le DA était permise par un « tissu social spécifique », constitué par les associations, les structures institutionnelles d’accueil ou encore par la communauté. Si les compétences biomédicales étaient appréciées, les compétences relationnelles étaient particulièrement attendues, permettant l’instauration d’un cadre sécurisant, d’une relation de confiance, et la reconstruction via le soin et la considération de ces patients. Conclusion. La démarche centrée sur le patient nécessite d’explorer les besoins et de s’adapter aux représentations de tous les patients, particulièrement ceux avec des marqueurs culturels différents.
ALLERGIE AUX PROTEINES DE LAIT DE VACHE ET ALLAITEMENT MATERNEL. GESTION DIAGNOSTIQUE ET THERAPEUTIQUE, UNE REVUE SYSTEMATIQUE DE LA LITTERATURE DANS LE CADRE DU PROJET LACTACLIC
Authors: MARTIN A , ROUAULT E , HISS C
Published: September 2022

Contexte. L’allergie aux protéines du lait de vache (APLV) affecte 0,5 % des nourrissons allaités. Le diagnostic et la prise en charge sont complexes du fait des variabilités individuelles de l’enfant, de la mère et de l’allaitement maternel. Objectif. Dresser un état des lieux des connaissances concernant la prise en charge diagnostique et thérapeutique de la mère allaitante et de son enfant suspect d’APLV. Méthodes. Une revue systématique de la littérature publiée du 1er janvier 2000 au 31 mai 2020, répertoriée dans les bases de données PubMed®, EMPremium®, Lissa®, Science Direct® et Cochrane Library®, a été menée. Les données recherchées concernaient la prise en charge diagnostique et thérapeutique des enfants ayant une APLV et dont l’unique source lactée était le lait maternel. Résultats. Parmi les 22 articles inclus, 17 abordaient le diagnostic et 18 la prise en charge thérapeutique. Le diagnostic d’APLV était fondé sur des manifestations cliniques et sur le test d’éviction, parfois suivi d’une réintroduction. Des examens complémentaires étaient réalisés dans un second temps. Le traitement reposait sur le régime d’éviction par la mère et l’enfant. Il était guidé par l’avis d’un(e) diététicien(ne). Des supplémentations et des surveillances particulières étaient requises. Conclusion. Dans l’APLV au cours de l’allaitement maternel, la place du médecin généraliste est centrale : il évoque le diagnostic, initie les premières mesures thérapeutiques, puis coordonne les soins. Une fiche d’aide à la décision pour les médecins généralistes a été établie sur le site Lactaclic.

Published: September 2022

Introduction. Les patients traités par anti-TNF alpha ont un risque infectieux plus important que la population générale. Le vaccin de la grippe, bien toléré, permet de diminuer la gravité et la fréquence de la grippe dans cette population. Objectif. Mesurer la couverture vaccinale antigrippale nationale chez les patients sous anti-TNF alpha. Étudier les facteurs associés à la couverture vaccinale. Méthode. Étude épidémiologique de cohorte rétrospective utilisant l’échantillon généraliste des bénéficiaires incluant les sujets traités par anti-TNF alpha, âgés de 15 à 60 ans, entre 2009 et 2016. Résultats. 713 sujets ont été inclus. La population vaccinée selon les recommandations était de 5,3 %, et 80,5 % n’avait reçu aucun vaccin antigrippal. Conclusion. La couverture vaccinale antigrippale des patients sous anti-TNF alpha en France est très faible. La systématisation de l’information par l’envoi de bon de prise en charge par les organismes de sécurité sociale pourrait permettre d’améliorer la couverture vaccinale chez ces patients.
PRISE EN CHARGE DIAGNOSTIQUE DU SYNDROME DE L'INTESTIN IRRITABLE EN SOINS PRIMAIRES : UNE REVUE SYSTEMATIQUE DE LA LITTERATURE

Published: September 2022

Contexte. Le syndrome de l’intestin irritable (SII) est un trouble fonctionnel fréquent qui peut altérer la qualité de vie du patient et a un impact économique important. Son diagnostic est fondé sur les critères de Rome. Objectif. L’objectif de cette revue systématique était de décrire la prise en charge diagnostique du SII en soins primaires. Méthodes. Les articles originaux décrivant spécifiquement et quantitativement la prise en charge diagnostique du SII en soins primaires à partir des données individuelles des patients ont été sélectionnés dans les bases de données PubMed®, Embase®, et Web of Science®. La nature et la fréquence des procédures diagnostiques utilisées par les médecins ont été analysées . Résultats. Neuf études ont été incluses. Aucune donnée n’était disponible concernant l’examen clinique. Des procédures diagnostiques étaient réalisées dans au moins 63 % des consultations ou des épisodes de soins pour SII. Des tests thyroïdiens, une recherche de sang occulte dans les selles (RSOS) et un examen parasitologique des selles étaient fréquemment prescrits. L’échographie abdominale était l’examen d’imagerie le plus fréquemment prescrit. Une coloscopie ou une sigmoïdoscopie était fréquemment prescrite. Les médecins utilisaient certaines procédures diagnostiques non préconisées par les recommandations internationales, en particulier des examens biologiques (antigène carcino- embryonnaire, tests immunologiques pour Helicobacter pylori, RSOS, tests thyroïdiens, coproculture), des examens d’imagerie (échographie abdominale et lavement baryté) et des demandes d’avis spécialisés (auprès de chirurgiens). À l’inverse, ils ne prescrivaient pas certains examens recommandés tels qu’un test sérologique de la maladie coeliaque ou le dosage de la calprotectine fécale. Conclusion. Des études longitudinales décrivant les épisodes de soins du SII avec des données cliniques pertinentes sont nécessaires. La validation des critères de Rome IV en soins primaires serait utile pour soutenir leur utilisation.

Published: September 2022

En 2019, la Haute Autorité de santé (HAS) a publié des recommandations concernant la contraception chez les femmes et adolescentes en âge de procréer1. La prescription d’une contraception est fondée sur les préférences de la patiente, en tenant compte de ses facteurs de risque cardiovasculaire et des éventuelles contre-indications. Pour les patientes mineures, il est recommandé que l’entretien se déroule sans la présence des parents et de rappeler la gratuité de la contraception jusqu’à 25 ans depuis le 1er janvier 20222...

CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) is a methodology currently applied by many universities worldwide and some Vietnamese universities in order to meet the increasing demand of human resources in the 21st century. To innovate curriculum and teaching methods according to CDIO approach, materials need to be built and supplemented appropriately. This study is an experiment to build a website as a supporting material for teaching Electricity Section in General Physics subject. The website is built on the basis of the CDIO approach, especially the standards 7 and 8 and the flipped classroom model. This article describes the website’s designing process and structure, and the test results after implementing the website at Ho Chi Minh City University of Food Industry and Tran Dai Nghia University. Surveys of teachers’ feedback and learners’ evaluation have indicated the effectiveness of webstie as a learning material. This conclusion suggests further studies should be taken on building suitable materials for CDIO-approached subjects.
