Authors: Ziar Asadullah , Ulfat Shahzada , Serat Zainullah , Armal Mohammad Ashraf
Published: August 2023

Roads play a vital role in a country's economic, cultural, and social development, with significant budget allocations financial each year. Expenses for road construction include design, material acquisition, construction equipment, maintenance, rehabilitation, and overall operations, requiring substantial government investment. A meticulous evaluation of alternatives is essential before implementing such projects. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the cost-effectiveness of three design methods (AASHTO, AI, PCA) on an 8 km urban road, considering initial construction costs. Traffic data collected over two years resulted in a total estimated traffic load of 2.16 x 106 ESAL for the road. The findings indicate that flexible pavement is more cost-effective than rigid pavement. Among flexible pavement design methods (AASHTO and AI), AI emerges as the most cost-effective. For rigid pavement design methods (AASHTO and PCA), PCA proves to be the most cost-effective, while rigid pavement stands out as the most expensive option.

Technique D'ecriture Dans L’enfant Sans Nom De Florence Trystram
Authors: Mutau Martin Luther Tshifumbe
Published: August 2023

But : La visée de cet article est de dégager la différence entre la lecture d’une œuvre romanesque de type balzacien et celle du « Nouveau Roman ». Sous l’étiquette de « Nouveau Roman » rentrent des écrivains de tempéraments aussi divers des uns que des autres par un seul idéal de la recherche de nouvelles techniques scripturales considérées périmées.

Méthode : Outre les techniques narratives canoniques préconisées par les narratologues, nous nous sommes ainsi rendu compte que Florence Trystram s’est également servie d’autres techniques littéraires. Il s’agit notamment du mélange des genres littéraires et de certaines figures de discours.             A propos de genres littéraires, Sony Labou Tansi fait remarquer : « les genres littéraires n’ont pas de sexe. Je me demande même si mes romans sont des romans. Le message essentiel est l’homme. Il est le destinataire obligé. » (Sony Labou Tansi, L’anté-Peuple). Florence Trystram s’y est conformée et l’on remarque le mélange de différents genres littéraires dans la création de son récit.

Résultat : Nous avons découvert dans ce roman une présentation sommaire des thèmes. D’abord, l’oppression. Ensuite, l’enchaînement logique des thèmes abordés. Enfin, ceux-ci se renferment sous un ton optimiste : on part de l’oppression qui débouche sur la misère de celle-ci à la révolte et à l’optimisme en faveur de la dignité humaine. Ainsi, pouvons-nous déduire que le héros nous interpelle à juguler les jérémiades. Quant aux thèmes ressortis de cet univers romanesque, nous avons l’impression que la plupart des écrivains africains sont encore obsédés par les mêmes thèmes diachroniquement vécus au fil du temps par toute l’Afrique.

Contribution: Nous avons constaté que L’Enfant Sans Nom s’écarte littéralement de la narration du roman balzacien. Et nous avons en fin de compte, admiré l’intelligence avec laquelle Florence Trystram a modelé cet univers romanesque.

Authors:   The Korean Career·Entrepreneurship & Business Association, Kim KiHong , Jeon ByungHun , Lee ChangYoung
Published: August 2023

Most successful pivot cases in the domestic market are either promotional materials for well-known companies or cases of stable companies that can afford to fail once or twice. As a result, there is a lack of pivot research that early-stage startups can refer to in order to overcome the Death Valley. Therefore, in order for early-stage startups to overcome the Death Valley through pivoting, it is necessary to reduce the probability of pivot failure. To achieve this, research on pivot cases of early-stage startups in similar environments is needed to gain a precise understanding of pivoting and its key factors. In this study, we conducted a case analysis of five early-stage startups that are currently actively conducting their business to identify the types of pivot in domestic startups and summarize the success factors. The research results revealed that domestic startups are relatively engaged in Customer Need Pivot and Zoom-out Pivot. The prevalence of Customer Need Pivot indicates that pivoting, which reflects customers' needs, is also being applied in reality as part of the Lean Startup methodology. Moreover, it was found that startups often undergo Zoom-out Pivots, where they leverage existing resources and capabilities to add new business models in order to expand their business. The research results indicate that in crisis situations, rapid decision-making and execution, problem-solving starting from understanding customers' needs, securing resources and capabilities necessary for pivoting, modifying the direction of the business through pivoting, and increasing the chances of success are crucial. Additionally, maintaining an open attitude towards various possibilities, making correct choices, and focusing on core competencies were identified as important factors for successful pivoting.

Published: August 2023

Importance: Only a limited amount of research has investigated the impact of prolonged refugee status of Palestinian refugees who have been displaced for more than 70 yr.

Objective: To explore lived experiences of Palestinian refugees in Jordan and understand their occupational disruption.

Design: Thematic analysis guided by descriptive phenomenology with one-on-one and group interviews.

Setting: An AlBaqa’a community-based rehabilitation center or participants’ homes.

Participants: First-generation Palestinian refugees who fled Palestine and live in Jordan.

Results: Fifteen Palestinians, mainly widowed women in their 70s, participated in this study. Ten completed interviews, and five participated in two group interviews. Four themes emerged: (1) Palestinian pride, (2) trauma leaving one’s home country, (3) challenges of living in a host country, and (4) internalized prejudice.

Conclusions and Relevance: After 70 yr, prolonged refugeeism has led to occupational disruption and negative implications for occupational justice, especially in the absence of social justice. The area most negatively affected was social participation; however, participants still had a great sense of pride about their homeland and their heritage.

What This Article Adds: This foundational research explores the occupational injustices of the protracted refugee status of first-generation Palestinians in Jordan and identifies meaningful interventions to promote the alleviation of occupational disruption.
Evaluation of pain during diagnostic and surgical minihysteroscopy under local anesthesia
Authors: Nowak Adrian , Chmaj-Wierzchowska Karolina , Kampioni Małgorzata , Malinger Adam , Wilczak Maciej
Published: August 2023

Introduction

Hysteroscopy is currently considered as gold standard for the diagnosis and treatment of lesions in the uterine cavity and cervical canal. Currently, smaller diameter hysteroscopes are used, which enable the procedure to be performed without general anesthesia. Despite the use of smaller operating tools, some patients report pain.

Material and methods

The study included 142 patients who were divided into two groups: diagnostic hysteroscopy (86) and surgical hysteroscopy (56). Before the start of the procedure, ketoprofen intravenously and lignocaine paracervically were administered to the patient. The level of pain was measured using the visual analog scale (VAS).

Results

The average intensity of pain during the procedure in both groups was rated at 3 points (3.03 ± 2.25 points). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (VAS score 2.85 ± 2.15 vs 3.3 ± 2.38). However it was noted that as the duration of the procedure increased (regardless of the type), the level of pain experienced increased.

Conclusions

Minihysteroscopy under local, paracervical anesthesia using lignocaine, with prior administration (approximately 30 minutes before surgery) of 100 mg ketoprofen, seems to be an optimal approach for perioperative pain management. The results of the study suggest that hysteroscopes with a smaller diameter and paracervical block can be successfully used in outpatient medical practice.

Published: August 2023

Endometriosis is a common benign lesion whose importance lies in the associated symptomatology and the possibility of malignant transformation. Endometrial stromal sarcoma is a rare tumor, accounting for only 0.2% of all female genital tract tumors. Primary extrauterine endometrial stromal sarcomas are even rarer, are frequently associated with endometriosis, and have been reported in the ovaries, fallopian tubes, pelvic cavity, abdominal cavity, and retroperitoneum in the absence of uterine pathology. We describe a case of a female patient who consulted for dysmenorrhea, dysuria, and dyschezia. Pelvic magnetic resonance showed a heterogeneous tumor in the left adnexa compatible with endometrioma. Histopathological findings and immunohistochemical staining were consistent with the diagnosis of primary low-grade extrauterine endometrial stromal sarcoma. The patient underwent total hysterectomy, bilateral oophorosalpingectomy, total omentectomy, and pelvic and para-aortic lymph node resection.

Como problema do estudo apresentou o seguinte questionamento: Quais são as principais mudanças recentes nas políticas públicas para a formação de professores implementadas pelos órgãos governamentais responsáveis pela formulação e execução? O resultado do estudo compreendeu que, apesar da importância crescente que governos, programas de reforma educacional e especialistas atribuem às políticas voltadas para o desenvolvimento profissional dos professores, ainda estamos longe de ter uma formação continuada adequada, que atenda com qualidade a classe dos professores. Na última década, vários estados e municípios implementaram os programas de formação continuada, tanto em seus conteúdos quanto em sua estrutura e fundamentos e, iniciaram um processo de reconversão e credenciamento das instituições responsáveis. No entanto, persistem graves problemas, quer no funcionamento das instituições e no perfil dos seus corpos docentes, quer na organização, planejamento e gestão do subsistema de formação continuada. A pesquisa buscou compreender as transformações ocorridas nas políticas de formação de professores ao longo do tempo, identificando as principais iniciativas implementadas pelos órgãos governamentais para aprimorar a preparação dos educadores. Com base nas informações, é possível identificar tendências, desafios e oportunidades relacionadas à formação de professores, contribuindo para o aprimoramento das políticas públicas nessa área. O problema de estudo centrou-se nas principais mudanças implementadas pelas políticas públicas e seu impacto na formação docente, visando contribuir para uma educação mais qualificada e eficiente no Brasil.

Final Chapter of Roman Colonial Coinage (AD 235–275): Reminiscence of Romanitas / Końcowy rozdział rzymskiego mennictwa kolonialnego (235–275). Reminiscencja Romanitas
Authors: Jellonek Szymon
Published: August 2023

Between AD 235–275, 36 Roman colonies emitted their final coins, with more than five hundred iconographic motifs represented. On the one hand, “veteran” colonies, having a long tradition of colonial coinages, maintained the Roman character of their issues. On the other hand, most colonies created in the 3rd century, recognised by scholars as “titular”, since no colonists were supposed to be settled there, also decided to follow the pattern of universal colonial coinage. The use of Latin, the exposure of status and typical colonial motifs such as a “foundation scene”, military emblems and Marsyas were exploited in the final issues of the Roman colonies. Even though the Romanitas of many colonies was merely superficial, coins performed the role of a medium which manifested the Roman nature of the colonies.
