Authors:   Belgorod State National Research University, MALAY V.V.
Published: June 2023

Spanish Civil War 1936-1939 became a factor that significantly determined the situation in Europe on the eve of the Second World War. In this regard, it is important to study the international aspects of this conflict in the context of Italian-Soviet relations. The author reveals how the interests of such focal countries as the USSR and Italy, which supported the opposing sides of the conflict in Spain, intersected at different levels and in different forms. The policy of Non-Intervention to Spain 1936-1939 has also aggravated bilateral, in particular, Italian-Soviet, relations. The Spanish theme was also actively used in mutual informational and psychological confrontation. The Italo-Soviet struggle over the Spanish problem ultimately influenced both the outcome of the Spanish War as well as the balance of power in Europe before the World War II.

L’identité religieuse des conquis. Les effets de la conquête romaine en pays batave. (À propos de quelques ouvrages récents)
Authors: Rey Sarah
Published: June 2023

Dans l’historiographie de ces dernières années, la vogue des questions identitaires nuit parfois à la compréhension des aspects religieux de la «romanisation » . C’est ce qui ressort de certains travaux récemment consacrés aux Bataves. Dans ces franges septentrionales de l’Empire, l’idée d’une résistance religieuse, qui se développerait face à l’ordre romain, n’est pas corroborée par les sources antiques. L’attachement des Bataves à la figure d’Hercule Magusanus ne peut être compris comme un penchant exclusif en faveur d’une divinité que les Romains, ou leurs agents, ne reconnaîtraient pas. De même, l’image de sanctuaires ruraux où se réfugierait l’âme batave doit être révisée. Enfin, les colonies implantées dans cette partie du monde romain ne sont pas des camps retranchés, où le sentiment identitaire deviendrait pour chacun une obsession quotidienne.

Un discours monétaire sur la Concorde : le monnayage de Pupien, Balbin et Gordien III César
Authors: Brenot Claude
Published: June 2023

Si le droit des monnaies diffusait rapidement et largement l’effigie et la titulature d’un nouvel empereur, il revenait aux revers d’illustrer certains événements (entrées du prince, victoires, libéralités…), ou de propager, au gré des circonstances, des messages d’ordre plus abstrait et moins faciles à décrypter aujourd’hui. Mais il reste que la juste interprétation de ces revers ne doit pas être réduite à la simple analyse de l’image et de la légende qu’ils portent. Ils prennent leur juste et exacte valeur au sein de l’émission à laquelle ils appartiennent, à la façon des mots d’une phrase ou des phrases d’un discours. Dans cette optique, la reprise de la frappe de l’antoninianus par Pupien et Balbin, et l’unique émission qui en fut exécutée, centrée sur la dextrarum iunctio, est particulièrement significative. En exécution du donativum promis, les soldats en étaient les premiers bénéficiaires. Or les six légendes utilisées font écho au discours prononcé par Pupien au lendemain de la victoire d’Aquilée, et indiquent quels sont les fondements, les conditions et les bienfaits de la Concorde signifiée par le type des deux mains jointes. Une émission du début du règne comporte un revers à la légende Concordia autour de la représentation allégorique de celle-ci, qui, dans un autre contexte, prend une coloration différente.
La pêche et les relations avec Jersey et Guernesey
Authors: Lefèvre Daniel
Published: June 2023

Les relations des professionnels ont toujours été conflictuelles avec nos voisins anglo-normands à cause de la proximité des bailliages de Jersey et de Guernesey par rapport à la côte ouest du Cotentin et au nord de la côte bretonne. L’histoire, au cours des siècles, a placé ces bailliages sous la dépendance directe de la couronne britannique. Ils revendiquent cependant leur indépendance, sauf pour la défense et les affaires étrangères. Ils battent leur monnaie, ont leur propre Parlement, leurs lois et leur justice. La proximité de ces territoires a obligé nos professionnels à composer avec ces îles pour pratiquer leurs activités de pêche. Bien souvent, nos pêcheurs ont fait l’objet d’infractions jugées par les tribunaux des îles Anglo-Normandes, avec de lourdes condamnations. Ces différents jugements ont fait la une des journaux locaux et britanniques.
Le Mont-Saint-Michel retrouve son caractère insulaire
Authors: Lefeuvre Jean-Claude
Published: June 2023

Le projet de rétablissement du caractère maritime du Mont-Saint-Michel s’est achevé par l’inauguration officielle des travaux en octobre 2015, après dix longues années d’un chantier hors norme. La conception du programme de travaux a également demandé dix ans d’études de toute nature. C’est en effet en 1995 que le Premier ministre Édouard Balladur donne un feu vert officiel au lancement de ce projet. En réalité, les travaux qui ont vu le jour ne sont que l’aboutissement d’une longue série de projets initiés dès les années 1970, abandonnés les uns après les autres, mais qui ont tous apporté des éléments aidant à la réussite du projet réalisé, depuis la conception du barrage chasse d’eau sur le Couesnon et sa bipartition en deux bras enserrant le Mont, jusqu’à l’arasement partiel de la digue de la Roche-Torin en 1984.

L’hydrogène, un vecteur énergétique d’avenir
Authors: Saadi Régis
Published: June 2023

L’atome d’hydrogène (H) est l’élément le plus simple, le plus léger et le plus abondant sur terre. Incolore, inodore, non toxique, l’hydrogène est très énergétique : 33 kWh/ kg, soit 2,5 fois plus que le gaz naturel et trois fois plus que le gasoil. Sa combustion présente un immense avantage pour le climat et la santé : elle n’émet ni gaz à eff et de serre (GES), ni polluant, seulement de la chaleur et de l’eau. L’hydrogène associé aux piles à combustible (qui transforment l’hydrogène en électricité par réaction avec l’oxygène de l’air) peut constituer une force motrice pour de nombreuses applications. Il peut contribuer efficacement à la transition énergique, faciliter le stockage des énergies renouvelables intermittentes, renforcer le développement de la mobilité électrique, apporter des solutions d’avenir durable à la ville et à l’industrie.

Le camp d’internement de Vire – 1914-1919
Authors: Laspougeas Jean
Published: June 2023

Une fois la guerre déclarée et l’état de siège établi dans tous les départements, Allemands et Austro-Hongrois se trouvant en France deviennent ipso facto des ressortissants «indésirables» à surveiller comme possibles espions ou comme soldats au cas où ils pourraient rejoindre leur pays. Dans ces conditions, il semble impossible de garder une simple résidence surveillée. Privés de liberté, ces civils doivent être regroupés. De là l’ouverture de camps d’internement ou camps de concentration, selon l’expression de la circulaire du ministère de l’Intérieur du 15 septembre 1914. Ces camps sont parti culièrement nombreux dans l’Ouest, notamment en Bretagne. En Normandie sont ouverts un camp de triage à La Ferté-Macé et cinq camps de concentration : trois dans le Cotentin (dont celui du fort de Tatihou, au large de Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue), un dans les plaines bas-normandes (Alençon), le dernier dans le bocage à Vire.
Quand l’usine se réinvente : REVIMA à Caudebec-en-Caux, doyenne des entreprises aéronautiques normandes
Authors: Simon Marine
Published: June 2023

Peu après le début de la Première Guerre mondiale, le nord et le nord-est de la France sont occupés par les troupes ennemies. Ces deux régions, très industrialisées, ne peuvent plus produire pour le pays, ce qui engendre une pénurie importante, notamment de matériel de guerre. Le gouvernement, sous l’égide du ministère de l’Armement, créé en 1915, sollicite dès lors les industriels pour implanter des usines capables de subvenir aux besoins de l’armée française. La Normandie, encore rurale et peu industrialisée, s’impose rapidement comme un territoire stratégique avec la Seine qui relie Paris à la Manche.
Les aérodromes alliés dans la bataille de Normandie
Authors: Robinard François
Published: June 2023

Quand, du 26 novembre au 1erdécembre 1943, les principaux chefs d’État alliés, Roosevelt, Staline et Churchill, se réunirent à Téhéran pour une conférence en vue d’officialiser les modalités d’ouverture d’un nouveau front à l’ouest de l’Europe, les questions qui se posaient étaient : où ? quand ? comment ? Après les objections auparavant soulevées par Churchill, qui craignait qu’un endroit trop proche de la Grande-Bretagne soit un danger pour le Royaume-Uni en cas de revers militaires, la Normandie fut choisie pour la nature de ses plages, vastes étendues de sable fin, à une distance somme toute assez éloignée du rivage britannique, en tout cas suffisamment pour le mettre à l’abri de l’artillerie allemande. Cette offensive appelée opération Neptune pour l’ensemble des préparatifs et de sa partie maritime et, ensuite, Overlord pour l’assaut et l’organisation du front sur le Continent qui devrait trouver sa mise en oeuvre à l’été 1944, période la plus favorable du fait de la longueur du jour et d’une météo, a priori plus favorable.
Cidres, calvados et pommeau : territoires et appellations
Authors: Rothmann Maud
Published: June 2023

La notion d’appellation d’origine est indissociable de la notion de terroir. L’appellation d’origine contrôlée vient consacrer et protéger un patrimoine collectif, fruit de l’émergence de pratiques et de savoir-faire locaux, hérités et transmis. La France compte trois principaux bassins de production cidricole, tous situés dans le Grand Ouest : la Bretagne, le Maine et bien sûr la Normandie. Leur histoire a beaucoup de points communs. Dans chaque bassin, on peut trouver la «gamme» des produits cidricoles, mais chacun a ses spécificités.

Extension professionals in other states may benefit from developing a similar centralized database for collecting SNAP-Ed data.
Social Marketing–Enhanced Home Energy Education Encourages Adoption of Energy-Saving Practices
Authors: Caldwell Kathryn , Vaughn Leigh , Harrod Elisabeth , Harrod Jon
Published: June 2023

We developed a program centered on a social marketing–enhanced home energy education visit to encourage homeowner adoption of specific energy conservation measures. We randomly assigned 170 homeowners to an experimental condition that included energy education before an energy audit or a control condition that included only an energy audit. Participants in the experimental condition adopted more no-cost and low-cost one-time energy conservation changes, such as adjusting refrigerator/freezer temperatures and lowering hot water temperature. However, they did not invest more in home energy renovations or other costly changes, such as replacing inefficient appliances. We discuss implications of this experiment for enhancing effectiveness of Extension-based energy education programs.
Analysis Identifies Need to Educate Wine Grape Growers on Crop Insurance Issues
Authors: Olen Beau
Published: June 2023

A spatial analysis of variation in return on investment for crop insurance showed that West Coast wine grape growers are more inclined to use insurance to maximize short-term net returns than to protect against cash flow shortages. Growers would benefit from knowing that even if crop insurance does not maximize short-term net returns, it increases the revenue floor, thereby helping prevent cash flow shortages and vineyard failure. With crop insurance as the backbone of the U.S. agricultural safety net, an understanding of factors that drive variation in crop insurance participation can improve agricultural Extension agents' ability to offer programming on crop insurance issues. Additionally, agents can use publicly available data to replicate the analysis described in this article for other insured crops.
Improving the Viability of New Farmers' Operations Through the Use of Profit Teams
Authors: Rangarajan Anusuya , McCarthy Kathleen , Welch Daniel
Published: June 2023

Profit teams comprise multiple consultants engaged to support farmer decision making by holistically analyzing farm challenges. We tested the idea of using profit teams to help advanced beginning farmers, those who are beyond start-up but have been in business less than 10 years, address constraints to growing their businesses. These new entrepreneurs often have entered agriculture without a family farming history or a connection to Extension. We describe the processes of selecting farmers and administering teams, and we highlight significant improvements in quality of life, production, and profitability reported by 35 farmers. Our lessons learned may guide other educators and funders in developing profit teams for their beginning farmer clients.

Published: June 2023

Despite the importance of bees, there is a gap in the public's understanding of them. To help address this gap, we developed the outreach tool Experience Bees, a series of simple learning and hands-on activities to teach community members about bees and their importance in our landscapes. Program evaluation showed that participants learned about bees and were more willing to consider bees when planting their own gardens, demonstrating that a suite of simple activities can have a positive impact on people's knowledge of bees and their importance. We encourage readers to use our tool and replicate our methods or to design and implement similar projects to engage their audiences in pollinator conservation.
Allopurinol and renal impairment; as review on current findings
Authors: Bakhshaei Sina , Bakhshaei Bina , Mehrani Rastina , Neshat Sina , Rezvani Zeinab , Dehghan Sara , Mardanparvar Hossein , Momenzadeh Mahnaz
Published: June 2023

Hyperuricemia is described as a serum uric acid level more than 6.0 mg/dL. It is demonstrated by basic research and clinical studies, which the elevation of uric acid level may change the renal histology and function by developing acute and chronic kidney diseases (CKDs), diabetic nephropathy and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). There is no doubt about a significant relationship between uric acid and renal impairment. However, the details of this correlation, especially; between uric acid and renal failure, are discussable. Renal vasoconstriction, antiangiogenic properties, endothelial dysfunction, proinflammatory properties, renal fibrosis, pro-oxidative properties, and alteration of renal autoregulation are the most common mechanisms, which approve the association between uric acid and renal impairment. Allopurinol administration for CKD treatment in patients with gout is one of the most discussable challenges. It should be investigated whether allopurinol can diminish the deterioration of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in CKD patients who are at risk of ESRD. Some previous studies reported that allopurinol decreases the CKD incident risk, but others could not confirm this association. The benefit or risks of allopurinol in different stages of CKD, dialysis, and renal transplant are discussed in this study.
Magnesium deficiency as a contributing factor to type 2 diabetes: a review of the literature
Authors: Radmanesh Asal , Choromzade Setare , Akade Esma’il , Bahadoram Mohamad , Kaydani Gholam Abbas
Published: June 2023

Magnesium deficiency is a vital contributing factor to the happening and arising of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Magnesium has a critical function in controlling the level of glucose in the blood and insulin sensitivity, acting as a cofactor for various enzymes such as enzymes involved in carbohydrate oxidation, glucose transport mechanisms of the cell membrane, cell replication, and lipid metabolism. Studies have indicated that reduced magnesium levels in the blood are connected with a significant decline in insulin-mediated glucose uptake which is a vital part of the cell’s metabolism. In people with type 2 diabetes, plasma magnesium concentration was inversely associated with markers of insulin resistance. This means as magnesium levels in plasma decrease, the risk of insulin resistance increases. Additionally, magnesium deficiency can play a role in the development of diabetes by affecting the activity of the Na/K-ATPase enzyme, pancreas inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) modification, lipid metabolism, and causing genetic instability, as the main contributors to type 2 diabetes. Therefore, early detection of magnesium deficiency can help prevent further complications. Physicians should be aware of the connection between magnesium deficiency and diabetes and monitor patients with magnesium deficiency for diabetes symptoms and make sure that the patient is getting adequate amounts of magnesium from their diet. Further research is needed to reveal the exact mechanisms underlying magnesium deficiency-induced type 2 diabetes and the curative effects of magnesium supplementation.

Published: June 2023

Introduction: Ne An acute respiratory infection started in Wuhan city of China in December 2019. The pathogen was discovered as a novel coronavirus from the Coronaviridae family and called the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). According to clinical symptoms and laboratory tests, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients are categorized as asymptomatic, mild, moderate, severe and critical state. Suggested therapies used in moderate to severe COVID-19 disease include corticosteroids, anticoagulation and antiviral drugs (e.g., remdesivir). Objectives: We reviewed the clinical outcomes associated with corticosteroid treatment for COVID-19. Patients and Methods: We planned a retrospective study with 859 patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection who were under treatment at Khorshid hospital affiliated with Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran (from February to May 2020). Results: A total of 859 patients were included in this study. The mean age was 63.33±15.45 years of which 43.8% (n=376) were women. We subcategorized corticosteroids by dose prescribed in smaller groups to show better results. The secondary outcome including the rate of intensive care units (ICUs) admission and death was less with corticosteroid prescription. This study showed, mortality and ICU admission were fewer in patients with ≥51 mg/d and ≥201 mg/d of methylprednisolone therapy, respectively. Conclusion: Based on this study, corticosteroid treatment can reduce both the need for ICU admission and mortality in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients. However, clinical trials are needed to investigate the effect of corticosteroid therapy on the need to mechanically ventilate a patient.

Introduction: Effective antiviral medications with minimal side effects has received scholarly attention since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Ivermectin, a long-time anti-parasitic drug, has been proven through laboratory tests to have anti-COVID-19 effects. Objectives: This study investigated the effects of inclusion of ivermectin to the standard treatment of mechanically ventilated patients. Patients and Methods: This study is a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial that was conducted on COVID-19 patients, in Ahvaz, Iran, from March 2020 to September 2021. Intubated COVID-19 patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly allocated into two groups, placebo (n = 29) and the ivermectin-treated (n = 31). The primary outcome was the mortality, and the secondary outcomes were pulmonary compliance and vital signs. Results: Two groups were similar regarding demographic characteristics such as age, gender, the length of time since the onset of symptoms before intubation, the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the blood. Moreover, the difference in erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), D-dimer, and interleukin 6 (IL-6) was not significant between the two groups. Regarding mortality rate, no significant difference between the two groups was detected. Furthermore, O2 saturation on day 5 was significantly higher in the ivermectin group as opposed to the control group (P=0.008). No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups regarding respiratory rate, heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and lung compliance (dynamic and static). Conclusion: Regarding the importance of blood oxygen saturation in COVID-19 patients, our results showed no significant effect of ivermectin in the treatment of ventilated COVID-19 patients, suggesting that its addition to the standard COVID-19 treatment either is ineffective or has no synergistic effect. Trial Registration: The trial protocol was approved by the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (Identifier: IRCT20190417043295N2; https://www.irct.ir/trial/57603, ethical code#IR.AJUMS.

Introduction: Acute intoxication is an ongoing health issue worldwide and one of the most prevalent causes of hospital admission. Investigation of the features of acute intoxication occurrence allows for effectively planning preventive measures and required health resources. Objectives: The current study investigated acute intoxication’s demographic and clinical characteristics in an Iranian province. Patients and Methods: An observational case-series study was designed to investigate patients suffering from acute intoxication and admitted to two referral tertiary teaching hospitals over six months. Demographic data, vital parameters comprising neurologic, respiratory, and hemodynamic status, clinical symptoms, and blood analysis data were prospectively recorded. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 21 software. Results: In total, 447 patients were included in the study (3.5% of all emergency admission). The mean age of patients was 33±16 (4-88) years, and 190 (42.6%) patients were female. Seventy percent of patients were under 40 years. The male patients were significantly older than the female ones (P=0.001). Hospital mortality was 2.7%. Circulatory shock and respiratory apnea occurred separately in 13 (2.9%) patients, and alteration in consciousness affected 30%. Reduced arterial blood saturation and visual acuity were observed in 14% and 3.6% of the patients. A cumulative prevalence of electrocardiogram anomalies of 38% was also observed. The most prevalent electrolyte disorder was hypocalcemia (12%), followed by hypokalemia (10%); 17 % of patients were affected by severe blood acidosis. Conclusion: Acute intoxication is a medical emergency with a high risk of death. A multi-organ-based diagnosis and therapeutic approach should be implemented to manage the potentially lethal complications as soon as possible. Effective preventive planning for reducing acute intoxication should be performed concerning the socioeconomic status of the targeted population.

The absorbed dose rates in air have been monitored in 23 different urban areas in Iraq using TLD dosimeter for the period 1992-1994 and in 2011-2012, with no significant differences observed. The risk of cancer incidence (morbidity) and mortality to the individuals related to external exposure to ambient gamma radiation is evaluated in this study using the linear, no-threshold (LNT) dose-response model. The risk estimations include delayed radiation effects (cancer morbidity, mortality and hereditary genetic damages). The mean effective dose equivalent to the individuals of 0.48 mSv/y is found to be less than the recommended dose limit to the public established by the International Atomic Energy Agency of 1 mSv/y. However, the findings of this study report that about 0.24% of the respective population are expected to be diagnosed with radiation-induced cancer over there lifetime. The lifetime fatal cancer probability (mortality) is estimated to be occurs at a rate of 0.18%. The risk of developing fatal stomach cancer is found to be occurs at a largest extent in comparison with other exposed body organs and tissues. Other consequences of radiation injury such as genetic effects transmitted to succeeding generations are expected to occur at a rate of 0.03% in the offspring of the respective population as a result of changes transmitted via the genetic mechanisms due to irradiation of gonads

حدود المنهج النقدي عند طه حسين

حاول هذا البحث ان يتعرف إلى المنهج النقدي عند طه حسين؛ فوقف أولاً عندالأصول التي تم استقاء هذا المنهج منهاء فتعرف إليها بدءاً بالاصل النقدي اللغوي القديموانتهاء بمعطيات المدارس الفرنسية كما هي عند أبرز ممثليها كهيبوليت تين وسانت بيفوجوستاف لانسون؛ فضلا عن النقاد الانطباعيين الفرنسيين أمثال جول لوميتر واناتولفرانس .وقد استطاع طه حسين ان ينحت له منهجاً نقدياً عبر تمثله وهضمه هذه المناهج»وهو منهج ينطوي على نوع من البناء؛ له وحدته المتميزة وصيغته التكوينية الخاصة؛وإن لدا لأول وهلة عبارة عن مجموعة متباينة من الأبنية النقدية.وتلك هي النواة الصلبة للمنهج أو الرؤية عند طه حسين؛ وهي رؤية تجمع علىنحو ثنائي بين المنهج القديم والمنهج الجديد؛ وهي إشكالية ظل طه حسين يعاني منهاطويلا. وهذا الضرب في الإشكالية يشابه إلى حد كبير من يدعي الحداثة من الشعراءبالرغم من مزاوجته في إنتاج نصه الشعري بين العمود الخليلي وشعر التفعيلة (الشعرالحر).وعلى هذا النحو من الصيغ التوفيقية؛ رسم طه حسين منهجه النقدي رغم ان هذهالصيغة ليست جدلية ولذلك ظلت صيغته في أمان نسبي بل ظلت تعزي بسلامتهاالظاهرية من الأقران والأتباع فكانت أنموذجاً يحتذى وما زالت كذلك عند الآخرين.
