Published: December 2021

Se presenta una mirada a la historia de niñez y familia en Colombia en dos siglos de vida republicana. En este periodo, la niñez ha sido una construcción pública que se forma, en la vida privada. Hay permanencias históricas evidentes, tiempos circulares donde el niño es participante discreto hasta ser lo que es hoy: sujeto de derechos protegido por instituciones públicas, con un papel central en la vida familiar: ambas actitudes inéditas hace dos siglos. Se concluye que en ese periodo se han transformado los conceptos de intimidad y familia, evidenciados en la evolución de leyes e instituciones del estado.

Teachers must be able to make decisions on the basis of proper assessment, whether teaching and learning activities are sufficient, whether the methods are changed, whether past activities need to be repeated, while students have not been able to achieve learning goals.
The Pedagogical Boxes’ Educational Program at the
Homem do Nordeste Museum
Authors: Pacheco Ricardo
Published: December 2021

In the administrative archive of the Joaquim Nabuco Foundation, we find the administrative documentation of the Museu do Homem do Nordeste (Muhne) since its foundation in 1979. By exploring this documentation, it was possible to observe the set of education initiatives in museums developed by the Muhne team in the 1990s. We found copies of the plans and reports of the educational program called "Didactic Boxes" dating from 1996 and 1997. Consulting the project, the activity report, the printed material containing instructions for using the didactic boxes and the disclosure pamphlet and the photos of the activities we understand the characteristics of the activity. The analysis of this specific action allowed us to perceive the set of epistemological principles that guided the museum team in their educational actions in the 1990s.

We report polarization properties for eight narrowband bursts from FRB 121102 that have been re-detected in a high-frequency (4–8 GHz) Breakthrough Listen observation with the Green Bank Telescope, originally taken on 2017 August 26. The bursts were found to exhibit nearly 100% linear polarization, Faraday rotation measures bordering 9.3 × 104 rad m−2, and stable polarization position angles, all of which agree with burst properties previously reported for FRB 121102 at the same epoch. We confirm that these detections are indeed physical bursts with limited spectral occupancies and further support the use of sub-banded search techniques in FRB detection.

Islam et politique au Sahel
Authors: Yahaya Ibrahim Ibrahim
Published: December 2021

Depuis une trentaine d’années, le Sahel est le théâtre d’une résurgence islamique, poussée notamment par des groupes salafistes et soufis. Certains acteurs religieux cherchent à islamiser la société par le bas, sans s’engager directement en politique. D’autres, en revanche, aspirent à prendre le pouvoir, soit en s’insérant dans le jeu démocratique, soit par les armes. Les États concernés et les intervenants extérieurs ne réagissent pas de manière uniforme face à cette dynamique religieuse.

Delineation of the boundaries of the Left Ventricle (LV) in cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) is a hot topic due to its important diagnostic power. In this paper, an approach is proposed to extract the LV in a sequence of MR images. In the proposed paper, all images in the sequence are segmented simultaneously and the shape of the LV in each image is supposed to be similar to that of the LV in nearby images in the sequence. We coined the novel shape similarity constraint, and it is called sequential shape similarity (SSS in short). The proposed segmentation method takes the Active Contour Model as the base model and our previously proposed Gradient Vector Convolution (GVC) external force is also adopted. With the SSS constraint, the snake contour can accurately delineate the LV boundaries. We evaluate our method on two cardiac MRI datasets and the Mean Absolute Distance (MAD) metric and the Hausdorff Distance (HD) metric demonstrate that the proposed approach has good performance on segmenting the boundaries of the LV.
Femmes africaines, hommes portugais et familles coloniales soutenant un empire : histoires du Minas Gerais au XVIIIe siècle
Authors: Dantas Mariana L. R.
Published: December 2021

Dans The Portuguese Empire, 1415-1808: A World on the Move, A. J. R. Russell-Wood note que l’expansion et le fonctionnement de l’empire Portugais au début de la période moderne étaient le produit de la migration et de l’établissement des hommes portugais en Asie, en Afrique et dans les Amériques. Il ajoute que cette histoire était aussi le résultat des circulations, à la fois volontaires et forcées, d’un continent à l’autre ou internes à la colonie, que le Portugal avait organisées. La population d’origine mixte – européenne et indigène ou africaine – qui en a résulté, et qui a été encouragée ou forcée à adopter les lois et les pratiques portugaises dans la conduite de ses affaires, a été à l’origine de la cohérence politique et culturelle qui portait les revendications et les aspirations impériales du Portugal. Cet article reprend la vision de Russell-Wood sur les fondements humains et intimes de l’empire à travers une histoire locale de la ville de Sabará. Il explore la trajectoire de divers ménages mixtes – africains et portugais – pour examiner l’impact de leurs activités économiques, de leurs dynamiques interpersonnelles et de leurs expériences de l’esclavage et de la liberté sur le développement de ce lointain territoire du monde portugais. De plus, au-delà des hommes blancs, il centre son récit sur les femmes africaines ou d’ascendance africaine dont le travail, l’exploitation et la recherche de la liberté ont soutenu les divers processus historiques qui ont fait avancer les intérêts impériaux du Portugal.
La « langue générale » des fugitifs : le nheengatu dans l’Amazonie du XIXe siècle
Authors: Cardoso Antonio Alexandre Isidio
Published: December 2021

Le nheengatu est une langue qui a été adaptée par les jésuites pour faciliter la catéchèse en Amazonie portugaise. Elle finit par dépasser les limites des réductions indigènes (aldeias) et fut adoptée par beaucoup d’Africains qui, à partir du XVIIIe siècle, commencèrent à débarquer en nombre dans les ports de São Luís et de Belém. Elle s’imposa parmi les différentes forces de travail de la forêt et traversa les siècles pour persister dans la vie quotidienne amazonienne même après l’indépendance du Brésil. Cet article vise à éclairer certains aspects des usages de cette langue parmi les populations subalternisées, notamment les esclaves fugitifs du XIXe siècle.

Authors: Kanala Reddy Ramanadha , Yerragunta Thirumal , Yerramneni Vamsi Krishna , Kolpakawar Swapnil , Kumar K. S. Vishwa , Suman Arvind
Published: December 2021

Background:

Current trends in spine surgeries have shifted to minimally invasive procedures. Minimally invasive approaches are getting more popular for lumbar interbody fusion procedures.

Objectives:

The objective of the study was to report technical modifications, learning curve, and short-term clinical results in minimally invasive transforaminal interbody fusion (MITLIF).

Materials and Methods:

All MITLIF cases performed from 2018 July to March 2020 were included. First three authors were operating surgeons. Visual analog scores (VAS) scoring for pain, Macnab criteria, and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were used for outcome assessment. Operating time, radiation exposure, and complications were assessed separately in a group of 20 as per time sequence in series to assess the learning curve.

Results:

A total of 61 patients were included. Various indications included spondylolisthesis, failed back surgery, calcified lumbar disc, and spondylodiscitis. Mean age was 47.08 ± 12.06. Intraoperative blood loss was 97.04 ± 25.58. Mean operating time and number of C-arm shots were 190.75 ± 37.11 and 159.3 ± 74.54, respectively, in initial 20 cases which however reduced in later operated cases. Significant improvement in VAS and ODI scores was observed at follow-up of 6.34 ± 4.67 months. Three cases needed surgical revision in the initial 20 cases, and there were no revision surgeries in later operated cases.

Conclusion:

MITLIF could be done in failed back surgery cases, spondylodiscitis, and deformity corrections in addition to spondylolisthesis. It has advantages of less injury to soft tissues, maintaining the posterior tension band, decrease in blood loss and hospital stays, and early mobilization. However, it has longer learning curve and takes minimum 20 cases for the surgeon to acquire reasonable experience and confidence.
Outcomes of chordomas of the sacrum and mobile spine
Authors: Zileli Mehmet , Karakoç Habib Tadayyon Einaddin
Published: December 2021

Study Design:

Retrospective clinical series.

Purpose:

To search for spinal chordoma's survival rates, recurrences, and complications and compare sacral and mobile spine chordomas.

Overview of Literature:

The primary spinal chordoma treatment is mainly considered radical surgery, although recurrence rates are pretty high. Radical surgery with extra marginal resection is possible with significant neurologic deficits and very high complication rates.

Materials and Methods:

This study reviews 48 spinal chordoma patients (sacrum 28, mobile spine 20) surgically treated between 1995 and 2019. Follow-up times ranged between 12 months and 238 months (average 6.16 years). Six patients were lost to follow-up after at least 1 year of control; three died 30 days after surgery.

Results:

Surgery for sacrum tumors was an extra marginal resection (sacrectomy) in 19 patients, while nine patients had intralesional surgery. There were 13 cervical chordomas and seven thoracolumbar chordomas. Although we tried marginal resections for cervical chordomas, all had positive margins, and we accepted them as intralesional. Surgery for thoracolumbar chordomas was total spondylectomy in four cases and intralesional excision in three patients. Because of recurrences, the average surgery per patient was 3.45. It was more common in mobile spine chordomas (average 4.2) than sacral chordomas (average 2.92). Surgical complications of mobile spine chordomas (15/20; 75%) were also more than sacral chordomas (16/28; 57%). Chordomas of the mobile spine had no metastasis, while sacral chordomas had a 21% (6/28) metastasis rate. The recurrence rates of sacral chordomas (16/21; 76%) were not significantly different from the mobile spine (15/18; 83%). Among sacral chordomas, in all five cases who had no recurrence, the level of sacrectomy was S2 and below.

Conclusions:

Recurrence and survival rates of mobile spine and sacral chordomas are not different. Sacral chordomas tend to metastasize. Sacrectomy is successful for sacral chordomas at S2 and below.
Minimally invasive cervical laminoforaminotomy – Technique and outcomes
Authors: Srikantha Umesh , Hari Akshay , Lokanath Yadhu K
Published: December 2021

Background:

Cervical radiculopathy is a common pathological entity encountered by spine surgeons. Many surgical options have been described including anterior cervical discectomy with or without fusion to arthroplasty and posterior cervical laminoforaminotomy. Being a motion-preserving procedure, posterior cervical laminoforaminotomy is an excellent treatment for patients with unilateral radiculopathy secondary to a laterally located herniated disc or foraminal stenosis. With the advent of minimally invasive techniques, this procedure has regained popularity.

Objectives:

Although there is enough evidence in the literature highlighting the benefits, safety, and efficacy of minimally invasive versus conventional techniques, a detailed technical report along with long-term surgical outcomes is lacking.

Methods:

The authors present their experience in minimally invasive cervical laminoforaminotomy (MIS-CLF) over a 7-year period (2013–2020) along with a technical note. Clinical evaluation was performed both before and after surgery, using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores. Patient functional outcome was measured using the modified Odom's criteria.

Results:

There were no major perioperative complications. No patient required surgery for the same level during the follow-up period which ranged from 1 to 3 years. Statistically significant results were obtained in all cases, reflected by an improvement in VAS for neck/arm pain.

Conclusion:

MIS-CLF is an effective technique for treatment of radiculopathy due to cervical disc herniation in a carefully selected subgroup of patients with good medium- to long-term outcomes. A larger study would possibly highlight the effectiveness of this procedure.

Published: December 2021

Anterior meningocele involves herniation of meninges through an abnormal defect in the anterior vertebral column. The pathogenesis, natural history, and management strategy of anterior cervical meningocele (ACM) are uncertain. We report a case of ACM with high cervical instability in a case of neurofibromatosis 1. Unlike other reported cases, torticollis and instability due to ACM were the major concerns in this case. We aim to discuss the management strategy and surgical nuances of such cases.
Unilateral C1 split fracture osteosynthesis using a patient-specific three-dimensional-printed guide
Authors: Barrenechea Ignacio J , Márquez Luis , Bruna Andrés E
Published: December 2021

Split-type C1 lateral mass fractures have a propensity for progressive fracture displacement. Since almost all cases end up showing progressive fragment diastasis, many authors recommend early surgical treatment. However, placing a C1 lag screw through a C1 split fracture is a challenging task. To overcome this, we designed a patient-custom three-dimensional (3D)-printed guide plate. We present the case of a 57-year-old female patient with a C1 lateral mass split fracture. Considering the amount of fragment translation, primary osteosynthesis was proposed. To purchase both fragments, placement of a lag screw was assisted intraoperatively by a custom 3D-printed composite guide plate, which enabled us to accurately place the screw. After an uneventful procedure, the patient was discharged from hospital after 72 h. Computed tomography scan performed at 12 months showed good fracture consolidation. The use of a patient-specific guide to place a lag screw through a split fracture of the atlas proved to be a safe, accurate, and inexpensive alternative to intraoperative imaging integrated with image-guided surgery.

Published: December 2021

Introduction:

Chordomas are rare and malignant primary bone tumors. Different strategies have been proposed for chordomas involving the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) compared to other locations. The impossibility to achieve en bloc excision, the impact on stability and the need for proper reconstruction make their surgical management challenging.

Objective:

The objective is to discuss surgical strategies in CVJ chordomas operated in a single-center during a 7 years' experience (2013-2019).

Methods:

Adult patients with CVJ chordoma were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical, radiological, pathological, and surgical data were discussed.

Results:

A total number of 8 patients was included (among a total number of 32 patients suffering from skull base chordoma). Seven patients underwent endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA), and posterior instrumentation was needed in three cases. Three explicative cases were reported: EEA for midline tumor involving lower clivus and upper cervical spine (case 1), EEA and complemental posterior approach for occurred occipitocervical instability (case 2), C2 chordoma which required aggressive bone removal and consequent implant positioning, focusing on surgical planning (timing and type of surgical stages, materials and customization of fixation system) (case 3).

Conclusion:

EEA could represent a safe route to avoid injuries to neurovascular structure in clival locations, while a combined approach could be considered when tumor spreads laterally. Tumor involvement or surgical procedures could give raise to CVJ instability with the need of complementary posterior instrumentation. Thus, a tailored preoperative planning should play a key role, especially when aggressive bone removal and implant positioning are needed.
Together but Not Together: Challenges of Remote Learning for Students Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic in Rural South African Universities
Authors: Marongwe Newlin , Garidzirai Rufaro
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the study was to examine the challenges of remote learning that were faced by students in four rural institutions of higher learning amid the COVID-19 pandemic. It is well documented that in South Africa as well as globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the teaching and learning in higher institutions of education. A call was made by the Department of Higher Education and Training that mandated universities to adopt remote learning to save the academic year. That call was a blanket statement that did not consider the context of different universities, given the inequalities that existed prior to the outbreak of COVID-19 between the historically disadvantaged universities and the well-established ones. The study adopted a qualitative approach that made use of a desktop research methodology, as well as the media (Television, radio and newspapers), and social media as sources of data gathering to document the challenges. One of the key findings was that some students studying at rural institutions of higher learning experienced challenges of limited skills as well as the convenience of and access to technology and other tools of trade. The paper concludes that such students were proposing that, ‘we are together but not together”. The root of such grievance is that they were grossly affected by the geographical and historical position of the universities they were enrolled at and the situation was deepened and exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The paper recommends the equal redistribution of resources especially to previously disadvantaged Black universities. The paper further recommends that the Department of Education introduce online learning to students from as early as high school so that there will be continuity and ease in remoting learning.
Estimation of litter input in hemi-boreal forests with drained organic soils for improvement of GHG inventories
Authors: Bārdule Arta , Petaja Guna , Butlers Aldis , Purviņa Dana , Lazdiņš Andis
Published: December 2021

Assessments of net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in forest land with drained organic soils conducted within the scope of National GHG inventories requires reliable data on litter production and carbon (C) input to soil information. To estimate C input through tree above-ground litter, sampling of above-ground litter was done in 36 research sites in Latvia representing typical forests with drained organic soils in hemiboreal region. To estimate C input through tree below-ground litter and litter from ground vegetation, modelling approach based on literature review and data on characteristics of forest stands with drained organic soils in Latvia provided by National Forest Inventory (NFI) was used. The study highlighted dependence of C input to soil through litter production from the stand characteristics and thus significant differences in the C input with litter between young and middle age stands. The study also proves that drained organic soils in middle age forests dominated by Silver birch, Scots pine and Norway spruce may not be the source of net GHG emissions due to offset by C input through litter production. However, there is still high uncertainty of C input with tree below-ground litter and ground vegetation, particularly, mosses, herbs and grasses which may have crucial role in C balance in forests with drained organic soils. Key words: forests, drained organic soils, litter production, carbon input, National GHG inventory
La comprensión hegeliana del delito
Authors: Mizrahi Esteban
Published: December 2021

En el presente trabajo se argumenta que la comprensión hegeliana del delito en la Filosofía del derecho (1821) tiene tres momentos diferenciados y complementarios. En el primero, se define al delito en su concepto con total independencia de lo establecido por la ley positiva; en términos objetivos, el delito puede ser interpretado como un juicio contradictorio en la medida en que niega aquello que afirma: el valor de la persona. En el segundo, se explica por qué una acción delictiva es imputable a un sujeto; en términos subjetivos, el delito es una acción que ha de poder ser imputada a un actor y para ello el agente debe ser consciente de su acto y éste responder a su propósito. En el tercero, se considera la acción criminal a partir de su peligrosidad social; en términos de la eticidad, el delito implica no sólo violencia sino defraudar y poner en tela de juicio las expectativas sociales depositadas en el cumplimiento de las normas vigentes en el Estado.
The literary field of queer cultural production in contemporary India: considering popular queer texts via Bourdieu
Authors: Pradhan Anil
Published: December 2021

In The Field of Cultural Production: Essays on Art and Literature, sociologist Pierre Bourdieu puts forward the idea that culture is discursively produced and that the field that informs, constitutes, and problematizes cultural production is crucial towards understanding how cultural transactions, dynamics, and politics work. Since literature is a key marker of society’s outlook on and reception of sensitive subjects like non-heteronormativity, this article focuses on the queer literary field – LGBTQ+-related texts and publication – in/of contemporary India. To this end, I look into trends in publication of Indian queer literary texts in English since 1976 through Bourdieu’s concept of the cultural production of the field of queer literature and consider popular texts like Shikhandi: And Other Queer Tales They Don’t Tell You; Our Impossible Love; She Swiped Right into my Heart, and read them vis-à-vis Bourdieu’s theorization, in order to conceptualize an idea about how texts and contexts interact with each other towards (re-)producing and (re-)constructing contemporary queer culture(s) in the Indian context.

Published: December 2021

Oferta y demanda provocan tensiones bajo las cuales se llevan a cabo la producción y la adquisición de bienes valuados. La investigación se enmarca por la Teoría de la Economía de las Prácticas Sociales de Pierre Bourdieu, la misma que concibe al derecho como un mercado productor de diversos capitales como lo son el capital jurídico y el político, pero además el capital burocrático en un nivel alto de importancia. La metodología configurada para este trabajo es complementaria, conforme la cual se hizo uso de información objetiva del campo, estadísticas institucionales y aplicación de cuestionarios a estudiantes de los dos subcampos identificados, el de Licenciatura en Derecho y el de posgrado, el programa de Maestría en Derecho Penal y Ciencias Penales del Instituto de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo. Asimismo, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas a Informantes Clave, para conocer con mayor profundidad el aspecto subjetivo de la realidad social estudiada. El mercado educativo del derecho conserva formas de pensamiento jurídico clásico, sin embargo, produce posiciones híbridas laborales, fenómenos endogámicos y pretensiones e intereses científicos que no se llevan a la práctica, lo cual devela necesidades de transformación e innovación del campo para adecuarse a la actualidad social.
