Ti Jean L’Horizon : une approche écocritique et décoloniale de l’anthropocène guadeloupéen
Authors: Nzengou-Tayo Marie-José
Published: January 2022

Lors de sa parution en 1979, le second roman de Simone Schwarz-Bart, Ti Jean L’Horizon, a été célébré par la critique et considéré comme une extension aux Antilles françaises de l’héritage indigéniste des écrivains haïtiens Jacques Roumain et Jacques Stephen Alexis. L’auteure a également été associée à Maryse Condé et les deux auteures guadeloupéennes ont été perçues comme remettant en question le mythe du retour à l’Afrique si cher au mouvement de la Négritude. Enfin, lorsque le mouvement de la créolité s’est manifesté vers la fin des années 1980, les romans de Schwarz-Bart ont été considérés comme ses précurseurs.

Aujourd’hui, la question se pose de savoir si Ti Jean L’Horizon est encore pertinent pour le lecteur antillais. Ne pourrait-on pas approcher le roman sous un nouvel angle et en tirer de nouvelles significations ? Cet article se propose d’en examiner quelques-unes, examinant l’odyssée de Ti Jean du point de vue de l’écocritique postcoloniale et d’une lecture décoloniale de l’histoire guadeloupéenne. En effet, s’il a su résister au passage du temps et s’il fait encore sens, c’est que la quête de Ti Jean aborde aussi les enjeux environnementaux suite au passé esclavagiste et aux changements idéologiques de la région. En cela, le roman se révèle précurseur des récents appels à préserver les paysages et biotopes insulaires, à lutter contre le dérèglement climatique aux Antilles.

A sensor-agnostic albedo retrieval method for realistic sea ice surfaces – Model and validation
Authors: Zhou Yingzhen , Li Wei , Chen Nan , Fan Yongzhen , Stamnes Knut
Published: January 2022

Abstract. The cryosphere's surface (snow, sea ice, and water) regulates global climate through several feedback mechanisms. Broadband albedo is a critical parameter determining the radiative energy balance of the complex atmosphere-cryosphere system, but there is currently no reliable, operational albedo retrieval product capable of assessing the global sea-ice albedo with sufficient spatial-temporal resolution for studies of sea-ice dynamics and for use in global climate models. A framework was established for remote sensing of sea ice albedo that integrates sea-ice physics with high computational efficiency, and can be applied to any optical sensor that measures appropriate radiance data. A scientific machine learning (SciML) approach was developed and trained on a large synthetic dataset (SD) constructed using a coupled atmosphere-surface radiative transfer model (RTM). The resulting RTM/SciML framework combines the RTM with a multi-layer artificial neural network SciML model. In comparison to the NASA MODIS MCD43 albedo product, this framework does not depend on observations from multiple days, and can be applied to single angular observations obtained under clear-sky conditions. Compared to the existing melt pond fraction-based approach for albedo retrieval, the RTM/SciML framework has the advantage of being applicable to a wide variety of cryosphere surfaces, both heterogeneous and homogeneous. Validation of the RTM/SciML albedo product using MODIS and SGLI data against measurements obtained from aircraft campaigns revealed excellent agreement, with mean absolute error of 0.047 for above 2000 clear-sky pixels.
Offshore wind farm cluster wakes as observed by a long-range scanning wind lidar

Published: January 2022

Abstract. To establish long-term flow measurements for the validation of wake models, a scanning Doppler wind lidar system was installed at the western edge of the wind farm Gode Wind 1 in the German Bight for a period of five months. The main goal was to detect the wakes from clusters for different wind directions and atmospheric stabilities. The lidar data are categorized into five sectors based on the different upstream conditions. The influence of wakes and atmospheric stability are initially investigated with respect to airborne measurements collected within the lidar measurement period. Mesoscale simulations are used as a reference for the free wind flow. The percent wind speed difference downstream of the wind farm clusters and at the location of the scanning lidar measurements (1.5 km downstream the closest wind farm) can reach a maximum of about 30 % for a mean wind speed of 10 m s−1 depending on the wind direction and under stable atmospheric conditions. A good agreement between mesoscale simulations (without any wind farm parameterization) and lidar measurements is found for undisturbed wind sectors and unstable and near-neutral atmospheric conditions. By taking into account the surrounding wind farms through a parameterization in the mesoscale simulations, the agreement of the model with the measurements is relatively good for unstable and near-neutral conditions, including sectors influenced by wind farm wakes. For stable conditions, however, the highest discrepancies between simulations and observations occur. Overall, the scanning lidar dataset can be used as a validation tool for wake model validations.

Authors: Gribaudi Gabriella
Published: January 2022

Events, which like bombardments, massacres as well as â€œnaturalâ€ disasters provoke the sudden, often unexpected destruction of living conditions for individuals and communities, are traumatic experiences whose effects can last for generations. Both the memory and the history of such traumatic experiences in 20th centuryâ€™s Europe â€“ bombardments during WWII and earthquakes until the 1980s â€“ how they were perceived by the affected people and the reactions they unleashed are the subject of Gabriella Gribaudiâ€™s recent study, La memoria, i traumi, la storia. La guerra e le catastrofi del Novecento (Viella 2020). How to resume after having lost everything, what individual and collective strategies do people adopt to create a new context of ordinary daily life, how to manage the tension between the wish to recreate the lost conditions and the need to shape a new prospect of life are the questions discussed with the author in the following interview.

Sul piedistallo della storia. Statue innalzate, contestate, difese e demolite dalla Rivoluzione francese a oggi
Authors: Pirazzoli Elena
Published: January 2022

In recent years, from South Africa to the United States, from Belgium to England, and spreading throughout Europe, various movements arose to remove statues and monuments, perceived as symbols of a past to be left behind. In order to understand these protests, it is necessary to broaden the view, finding analogies and differences with other iconoclastic phases that have occurred in history. While the act of demolishing is similar, intentions may be very different: context and perspective define whether it is vandalism, a demonstration of power or a deeply democratic process of liberation. This dossier is the result of these reflections, anchored in the present debate, trying to identify which elements and peculiar declinations can also be found in the territory of the Emilia-Romagna region.

The aim of this study is the interpretation of women’s issues in the 19th century Western Armenian literature, in particular in Elpis Kesaratsyan’s “The Spirit of Patriotism” (Imagination) essay, an Armenian female author who edited (and published in) “The Guitar” - the first Armenian language journal “about and for women” with a slogan “An Invitation for Armenian Young Women” in 1861-1863 in Constantinople.
In this study (in the context of the essay) we looked at the women’s issues in the Western Armenian literature of the second half of the 19th century and the historical period (as a historical and social, moral-psychological and ideological-aesthetic unity).
In this study phenomenology (semantic and typological procedure, peculiarities, role, significance and spheres of influence in socio-political life, methodology of understanding), and historical-comparative (traditional revision of values and orientations, trajectory of literary developments) methods were used. It can be councluded that Elpis Kesaratsyan's essay "The Spirit of Patriotism (Imagination) summarises the author's awareness of national identity and aesthetic references, which she connects with the historical and social, moral-psychological and legal-political issues. The present study is relevant not only in terms of systematizing the work of Elpis Kesaratsyan, but also in terms of examining women's issues in Armenology.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the involvement of the UN, the OSCE and the EU in the settlement of the conflicts in Abkhazia and South Ossetia by conducting a comparative analysis. Our task is to find out the main differences and peculiarities of the two conflicts, to study the role of the OSCE, the UN, the EU in the conflict settlement process, to identify the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the OSCE, the UN and the EU in both conflicts.
Both scientific (analysis, synthesis, historical principle) and special (logical-comparative, comparative) methods were used during the research.
As a result of the research, we have come to the conclusion that due to the legal-historical peculiarities of the two conflicts, the parties and organizations involved in them have different interests. We can say that the OSCE and the UN have made a significant contribution to the settlement of the conflicts in South Ossetia and Abkhazia respectively, but both have not been able to reach a final settlement. Given that the author presents the main tools and involvement of the three organizations in the conflict resolution process, the author argues that the UN had the largest resources and tools amongst the three organizations, but the OSCE was the most effective in resolving the conflict.

Programas musicales en televisión: un oasis más allá de los talent shows
Authors: Monedero Morales Carmen del Rocío , Rosa López Alberto
Published: January 2022

Después de tener hasta dieciocho programas musicales simultáneos en la parrilla, la oferta televisiva española pasó en la última década a suprimir la música en directo de la televisión, a excepción de los omnipresentes concursos de talentos y al programa especial de Nochevieja. Una tendencia que parece estar revirtiéndose en la actualidad con nuevos espacios como Banana Split o Un país para escucharlo (ambos en La 2 de TVE). Pero fue en octubre de 2018 cuando comenzó el cambio con la emisión del primer programa de La Hora Musa, también en La 2 de TVE, un contenido de música en directo en prime time. Ese mismo mes se lanza Sesiones Movistar+, dedicado cada semana a un grupo o solista. El objetivo de esta investigación es explorar la dimensión y el contenido de estos dos programas, contextualizándolos y estableciendo una visión comparativa entre ellos que permita vislumbrar si se ha recuperado el formato imperante en la programación musical de antaño o si, por el contrario, se ha optado por una renovación estructural. La metodología empleada para la consecución de éste, además de la revisión de fuentes bibliográficas y audiovisuales, ha sido el análisis de contenido de la primera temporada de ambos espacios y entrevistas semiestructuradas a sus responsables y a músicos participantes en ellos. Entre las conclusiones destacamos las grandes similitudes entre ambos programas, aunque el espacio de la televisión pública acoge una mayor variedad de géneros y de artistas internacionales, así como el surgimiento de nuevas oportunidades para los profesionales del periodismo musical.

Alternative Narrative of Partition: A Lyotardian Analysis of Parmeshar Singh
Authors: Fahad Ali Raza , Danish Malik Haq Nawaz , Asif Muhammad
Published: January 2022

The study aims at investigating alternative narratives in the partition narrative of the subcontinent concerning the postmodern conditions. The shared knowledge in postmodern traditions invites multiple realities for the epistemology of the perceivers. The Reconstruction of knowledge is marked with putting Meta-narratives into question, especially in the late 1950s in Europe. These constructions of ‘realities’ in Postmodern traditions import in-depth study of the narratives produced in the specific period of time, unchallenged and accepted until postmodern critique deconstructed the structures of realities. In this response, the partition narrative of Indo-Pak history has been investigated to identify the alternative narratives of the violent event, raging heavy death toll on both sides of the border. Lyotard’s alternative narrative technique is framed to identify humane aspects under the bloodshed riddles of the partitions in the partition narratives. The events recorded in the narratives regarding the humane aspects are spotlighted to offer an alternative narrative lying under the cover of the violent partition narrative. Indo–Pak fiction concerning the partition of the sub-continent, giving a ferocious account of the mass immigration across the border and the brutalities on the ‘others’ on theological details are narrowed down. Amongst these violent accounts of partition, showing a hostile face of the event, humane aspects are ignored to be acknowledged and partition is always propagated as a nightmare with bloodshed, brutality, and savagery. The present study focuses on providing sufficient grounds to proceed by alternating narratives from the nexus of partition towards a humanitarian approach.
Impact of dietary intervention devoid of probable endocrine disruptors among hypothyroid obese women consuming Levothyroxine -A Case study
Authors: Banerjee Swapan , Ray Pal Sulagna
Published: January 2022

Background: Hypothyroidism among obese women is one of the concerned endocrine disorders nowadays. Data shows that at least one female member suffers in almost every family in some metro cities. Iodine deficiency was one of the main factors, but it is no longer a significant cause for two decades due to its sufficient availability. So the expected risk factors are obesity and endocrine disruptors available in foods and the environment.
Objective: The study aims to determine the association between obesity and hypothyroidism among housewives living in Kolkata. Further, to evaluate hypothyroid to the euthyroid state through endocrine disruptors free dietary intervention.
Methods: This qualitative study was based on purposive sampling, including BMI, thyroid profile tests, and relevant blood reports. The dietary intervention was considered for 120 obese hypothyroid housewives within 35-45 years in Kolkata city and peripherals. The study was conducted for March-August in 2019 with Levothyroxine treatment for the 1st three months, followed by the next three months without this medicine but only dietary interventions. SPSS version 16 has been applied for the data analysis.
Results: The study revealed no such insufficiency of supplements that raised TSH and changed normal or subnormal T4 among the participants. The correlation coefficient for BMI and hypothyroid type was r = 0.524 and r = 0.425, p=.000 (p< 0.001 or p=0.000 or p<0.0005); BMI with TSH r = 0.554 and 0.437. So there was a significant relationship between obesity and hypothyroidism in association with comorbidities. Further, nine participants became normal weight, and fourteen progressed into mild status due to dietary interventions.
Conclusions: The study showed a positive association between hypothyroidism and obesity and their comorbidities. Further, the hypothyroid diet plan devoid of endocrine disruptors worked remarkably without Levothyroxine.

A series of substituted 4-{1-aza-2-[(aryl) amino)]}-3-methyl-2-pyrazolin-5-ones has been synthesized and evaluated for their biological activity. The title compounds (4a-l) were prepared by the diazotization of substituted anilines (1a-l) to form substituted phenyl hydrazine derivatives (2a-l) which synthesized substituted 4-{1-aza-2-[(aryl) amino)]}-3-methyl-2-pyrazolin-5-ones (4a-l) by Michael addition reaction, which is a nucleophilic addition of enolate anion to the carbon-carbon double bond of a α, β–unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives. Twelve different pyrazolinone derivatives (4a to 4l) were synthesized. Structural assignments of these compounds have been made by elemental analysis, FTIR, 1HNMR and Mass spectral data and the purity of the compounds was determined by TLC. The antimicrobial activity of the newly Synthesized heterocyclic compounds were evaluated against Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. Most of the compounds showed a moderate degree of potent antimicrobial activity. While analgesic activities were tested via both hot plate and acetic acid induced writhing methods. The study concluded that the compound 4b and4f were found to exhibit significant analgesic activity when compared to Diclofenac as standard drug while other derivatives exhibit moderate to good analgesic activity.

Published: January 2022

Introduction: The Coronavirus Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected many social organisations with the workplace being amongst those most affected. Organisation faced the challenge of continued productivity during a global health crisis. Employees have shown signs of fatigue caused by living with the persistent fear and anxiety of falling sick and this which can consequently resulted in a reduction in productivity and frequently reduced income. Measures that were introduced to keep people safe such as social distancing, lockdowns, new working styles together with necessary lifestyle changes such as social isolation have reinforced feelings of uncertainty and fear amongst the workforce. These factors have influenced the mental health of workers and will continue to do so as society reorganise and make the changes necessary to accommodate new systems. Purpose: The purpose of this literature review is to conceptualize the psychological aspects linked to workplace factors following the rise of COVID-19 to epidemic proportions and in order to address upcoming psychological critical issues in the workplaces. Method: This literature study proceeded a search engine using Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus, using keywords SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 pandemic, occupational health and safety, mental health, psychological disorders, COVID 19 and working people, workplace organization and selected 30 articles out of thirty 20 articles were analyzed corroding to researchers need. The literature information is further narrated and draws on insights of the researcher. Conclusion: The review study conceptualizes the pandemic spread of COVID-19 and reviews its effect in the workplace as companies reorganize and establish new patterns of operations in response the COVID-19 virus and to ensure precautionary measure against further spread of the disease. The adaptations necessary in the wake of this disease have novel reorganization in both structural and functional areas.

Educational institutions, especially universities, a lot of scholarships are offered to students. Scholarships are  also given  to students  at  STIKOM  UYELINDO in the form of  PPA  and  BBM scholarships. Some problems that often occur such as inaccurate selection process because of the large number of scholarship applicants that must be adjusted to the existing criteria, then in determining the right students do not even get a scholarship and students who are not entitled to get a scholarship instead get a scholarship and the selection process is still manual because Student data will be compared one by one to the scholarship criteria so that the selection process requires accuracy and time so this is not efficient. The decision support system application is a way to deal with the problem of determining scholarship recipients. This application uses Fuzzy Multiple Attribute Decision Making (FMADM) with the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. The SAW method was chosen because this method determines the weight of each predetermined criterion then continues in the normalization process in accordance with the equation in the SAW method and then continues with the ranking process to select the best alternative, in this case what is meant is students who are entitled to receive scholarships. The results of this study are in the form of an application decision support system for the selection of scholarship recipients using the web-based simple additive weighting method. Based on research results from the application of decision support systems for acceptance of ppa and fuel scholarships using the web-based saw method) this makes it easy for the student affairs bureau selection section to determine scholarship recipients according to existing criteria, faster and on target as expected.

The study was conducted to evaluate the secondary school teachers’ attitudes about verbal abuse and make suggestions about the issue in order to raise awareness. The population of the research, conducted using the screening method, was secondary state school teachers in the city of Duzce. The study’s sample consists of 255 male and 265 female teachers in the city of Duzce’s central district state schools. Data collection was carried out using a personal information form and the Questionnaire on the Verbal Abuse of Children developed by researchers. This study found that as class sizes increase, so does the child-abuse potential of teachers. Data show that teachers’ abuse-potential scores do not vary significantly by gender or by tenure in office. Therefore, in training and consultation sessions with teachers, precautionary work should be done, and the issue should also be discussed from the perspective of child abuse.

The goal of this inquiry is to establish the pervasiveness of prominent ears among undergraduates of Delta State University, Abraka in Nigeria.The outcome can act as a guide during correctional surgical measures in congenital or acquired ear defects. This enquiry adopted an observational cross-sectional study plan. The study sample comprised of both male and female undergraduates of Delta State University, Abraka aged between 16-30 years. Exactly 384 individuals (184 males and 200 females) were sampled and the cluster sampling procedure was practiced. Data was collected with the aid of a sliding vernier caliper, pencil, and a data collection sheet. Every subject’s head was kept in Frankfort’s horizontal plane and dimensions were taken with a sliding caliper. Ear projection greater than 21mm was defined as ear prominence. Totality of 36 (9.38%) had small right ear while 28 (7.29%) had small left ear. Prominent ear was more prevalent on the right region (n=44, 11.45%) than on the left (n=19, 4.95%). Entirety of 63 (16.4%) had prominent ears with more males affected compared to the females. The gender disparity in the occurrence of prominent ears is not remarkable (p>0.05). The relationship between age and the occurrence of prominent ears was remarkable (p=.000). Indubitably prominent ear is not widespread among the considered undergraduates.

Objective: To find out prevalence of iron deficiency anemia among hospitalized children aged 6-months to 5 years at a tertiary care hospital of Poonch, Azad Kashmir, Pakistan. Study Design: A cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Pediatrics, Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Hospital, Rawlakot from July 2020 to December 2020. Material and Methods: A total of 189 admitted children of both genders aged between 6 to 60 months were included. At the time of enrollment, age, gender, area of residence and socioeconomic status of all children were noted. To label IDA, a World Health Organization (WHO) criterion was adopted as hemoglobin below 11 g/dL. Chi square test was used to compare data between IDA and non-IDA children considering p-value < 0.05 as significant. Results: Out of a total of 189 cases, there were 103 (54.5%) male. Overall, mean age was 29.3±6.8 months while 106 (56.1%) children were aged between 6 to 24 months. There were 130 (68.8%) children who belonged to rural areas of residence. Socio-economic status was low in 110 (58.2%) children. Malnourishment was identified in 38 (20.1%) children. Gastrointestinal disorders were the commonest reasons of admission found in 82 (43.4%) children. The prevalence of IDA was noted in 103 (54.5%) children. Table-2 is showing association of anemia with respect to various variables studied. Younger age (p=0.0091), rural area of residence (p=0.0039), low socio-economic status (p=0.0036) and malnourishment (p=0.0001) were observed to have significant association with the prevalence of IDA. Conclusion: The prevalence of IDA was high (54.5%) in admitted children aged between 6 to 60 months. Younger age, rural area of residence, low socio-economic status and malnourishment were observed to have significant association with the prevalence of IDA.

Aim: To determine the effects of neuromuscular Reeducation technique along with ischemic compression on upper trapezius myofascial trigger points regarding pain and lateral cervical ROM. Methodology: A randomized controlled trial was conducted.50 patients (25 in each group; aged 32.00 ±7.12 years), diagnosed with neck pain having upper trapezius myofascial trigger points and reduced lateral cervical range of motion were included. Patients were randomized into ischemic compression group (A) and Neuromuscular Reeducation group (B). Both groups were associated with conventional physiotherapy, which continued for two weeks. Outcomes were measured by using a Goniometer for lateral cervical ROM and pain intensity by using NPRS, assessed at baseline and on 8th post-intervention. Results: 49 participants were analyzed due to a lost in follow-up of one subject from Control Group-A. Intragroup comparison of pre to post value for cervical ROM and NPRS showed a significant (p value=.000) for both groups. Intergroup comparison of baseline to end value for cervical ROM was significantly improved on post-intervention along with significantly improved NPRS Conclusion: This study concluded that Neuromuscular Reeducation along ischemic compression approach for MTRPs has proven to be more effective to improve cervical range of motion and reducing pain.
