Les relations entre les musées d’ethnographie et les marchés de l’art africain et océanien en France, en Suisse et en Belgique : construire la valeur et s’approprier l’altérité
Authors:   , Doyen Audrey
Published: September 2023

Cette recherche interroge le champ des objets ethnographiques au prisme de leur circulation entre deux médiateurs situés entre leur production et leur réception : les musées d’ethnographie et les marchés de l’art. Aucune recherche scientifique ne s’est jusqu’à maintenant penchée en profondeur sur les relations entretenues entre ces deux intermédiaires dans le champ de l’art africain et océanien, si ce n’est pour décrire ou critiquer le cas précis de la fondation du Musée du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac. Mobilisant l’anthropologie et la muséologie, ma recherche est basée sur un travail de terrain intensif auprès des galeries, des maisons de ventes aux enchères et des musées en Suisse, en France et en Belgique entre 20013 et 2017. L’analyse, fondamentalement compréhensive, montre les enjeux territoriaux à l’œuvre et souligne l’impact d’une montée de l’événementiel tant du côté des musées que des marchés. Ma recherche dresse un portrait du marché, de son fonctionnement et de ses hiérarchies à l’heure actuelle et propose une typologie des différentes relations et acteurs afin de comprendre le processus de fixation de la valeur des objets. Sur un marché où domine la spéculation et une grande part d’arbitraire, je montre que cette valeur est intimement liée à la maîtrise de l’information. Finalement, l’analyse met en évidence les « prêts-à-penser » et processus développés par l’entier des acteurs du champ pour rationaliser une partie de ces pratiques spéculatives. J’espère souligner dans cette recherche les formes nouvelles de production, d’appropriation, de consommation et de valorisation de l’altérité par notre société aujourd’hui.

Background: The Belimbing Community Health Centre in Padang City exhibits a limited level of engagement among pregnant women in the administration of Covid-19 vaccinations.Purpose : The objective of this study was to ascertain the factors associated with the engagement of pregnant women in the Covid-19 vaccine within the operational jurisdiction of the Belimbing Health Centre.Methods: The present study adopts a quantitative approach and employs a cross-sectional study design. The data collection period spans from January to June 2022, and the study is conducted within the operating area of the Belimbing Health Centre. The study sample consists of 93 pregnant women. The method employed for sampling in this study is simple random sampling.Results: The findings of the study indicated that a significant majority of the participants, specifically 87.1%, had completed the initial step of the Covid-19 vaccination process. The study explored the association between pregnant women's knowledge, attitudes, the role of health personnel, the involvement of husbands, socio-economic status, and their level of participation in Covid-19 immunisation. The findings of the multivariate analysis indicated that the variable with the greatest influence was the mother's readiness for pregnancy (p-value = 0.028; POR = 4.510). The participation of pregnant women in Covid-19 immunisation is influenced by various factors, including knowledge, attitudes, the role of health providers, the role of spouses, and socio-economic factors. The primary determinant is the attitude exhibited by pregnant mothers. There is an expectation that healthcare professionals and family can enhance the level of confidence among pregnant women regarding their engagement in Covid-19 vaccination.
Fundusz Inwestycyjny Inicjatywy Trójmorza: geneza i etapy rozwoju
Authors: Orzelska-Stączek Agnieszka
Published: September 2023

The article aims to examine what the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund is, how it was created and developed, and what are its connections with the Three Seas Initiative. Three stages of the Fund’s development have been distinguished: 2017–2018: the period from the emergence of the concept to the signing of the letter of intent to establish the fund; 2018–2020: fine-tuning the legal and financial framework; from 2020, in which the fund, as a new investment entity, began its commercial operations. In each of the three indicated stages, the relationship between the fund and the Three Seas Initiative developed differently. In the first and second stages, the fund was a concept whose implementation depended on the state of cooperation under the Three Seas Initiative. It was treated as a potential subsidy instrument, but over time this concept has changed. In the third stage, the fund became an independent legal entity, registered under Luxembourg law, with its statute, authorities and seat. While the Three Seas Initiative remains a loose form of cooperation, the fund is a clearly defined legal entity. It is intended to increase investment in Central Europe and generate profits for investors on a commercial basis. The Three Seas Fund is a different entity from the perspective of investors in the legal and financial dimension than for researchers of international relations. The Fund’s activity in the investment field affects cooperation under the Three Seas Initiative.

Published: September 2023

Textile industries discharge various waste including dye waste to the environment. Dye waste such as methylene blue taints both aquatic and land ecosystem. Thus, the recent study employs banana stem (Musa balbisiana Colla), as an economical and environmentally friendly biosorbent for methylene blue removal. The chemically activated banana stem indicates the significant methylene blue uptake at pH 5, initial concentration of 800 mg L-1, contact time of 60 min, temperature at 25 °C with adsorption capacity of 71.5470 mg g-1. The adsorption process follows the Langmuir isotherm model (R2 = 0.9965) and pseudo order model which involve monolayer and chemical adsorption. The thermodynamic evaluation shows that the adsorption process occurs spontaneously and exothermic. The regeneration process indicates that the banana stem can remove methylene blue up to 90% after five times adsorption-desorption cycles.

Abstract: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) has been a common complication which should be aware of, in hemodialysis procedure. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial, and severe anemia is considered as one of the most notable risk factors on IDH. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between plasma iron profile and intradialytic hypotension in hemodialysis patients. This was an analytical and retrospective study using medical records of hemodialysis patients at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado from January to May 2022. Sampling was conducted through consecutive sampling method, on available records.  Patients with CKD grade 5 which undergoes routine HD twice a week for >3 weeks, aged 18-60 years old were included, while subjects with sepsis, malignancy, autoimmune disease, crisis hypertension, and unstable congestive heart failure were excluded for further studies. The details on iron profile and blood pressure measurement were then extracted, which then analyzed with descriptive analysis and Pearson correlation using IBM SPSS Statistics 26.0. The results obtained a total of 35 patients; 57.1% were male. The Pearson correlation analysis on all variables reported several notable significant results, with a correlation between iron profile and blood pressure measurement were seen in TIBC and systole pre- and post-procedure (-.496 and -.611 respectively) with strong negative relationship; and serum ferritin value with systole post-procedure (.373) implying moderate positive relationship. The results suggested that the increase of ferritin value and decrease of TIBC value were correlated with the increase of systole blood pressure. Meanwhile, the TIBC had a strong positive correlation with systolic changes (.473) meanwhile serum iron had a moderate negative correlation with diastolic changes (-.365). In conclusion, there is a significant correlation between iron profile and changes in blood pressure, with higher iron profile value (lower TIBC) is positively correlated with the increase of both systole and diastole measurement; also negatively correlated with the reduction of blood pressure in hemodialysis patients

Authors: ASAWALAM E.F. , EMOSAIRUE S.O.
Published: September 2023

Powdered seeds of black pepper, Piper guineense (Schum and Thonn) applied at 0.1 g, 0.2g, 0.3g, and 0.4g/50g of maize grains evaluated for maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch, control, An insecticide treatment (lg pirirniphos-methyl /50g) and an untreated control were included. The effect of particle size of the seed powder on maize weevil control was also evaluated. The experiments were laid in completely randomized design with four replications. Percentage weevil mortality was recorded at 3,5,7, 14 and 21 days after infestation. At 5 days post-treatment, all rates of the seed powder caused significantly higher mortality than the level in control; the synthetic insecticide caused 100% mortality. The finer particle sizes (1 mm, 600um) of the pepper seed powder compared favourably with pirimiphos-methyl in controlling S. zeamais. In addition, grains treated with the seed powder showed significant reduction in the number of progeny derived from surviving S. zeamais. The powder reduced weight loss and induced high germination percentage. There was no observable feeding damage on grains treated with the higher rates and finer particle sizes. The results provide scientific rationale for the use of P. guineense in post-harvest protection.

The study was conducted in the laboratory at 282″C and 755% RH to evaluate different diets for rearing cocoa moth, Ephestia cautella (Walker). so as to facilitate mass production of the insect for biological study. The diets were: (A) cocoa powder (100%). (B) wheat flour (100%). (C) wheat germ ( 100%). (D) cocoa powder + yeast (90: 10). (E) wheat germ yeast (90:10). (F) cocoa powder + wheat Dour (50:50), (G) cocoa powder + wheat germ (50:50). (II) cocoa powder+ wheat flour + glucose (45:45: 10). (1) cocoa powder+ wheat germ + yeast (45:45: 10). (.I) cocoa powder + wheat flour + honey (45:45: 10), (K) cocoa powder+ wheat germ + glucose (45:45:10). and (L) cocoa powder + wheat flour + wheat germ + glucose (30:30:30: 10). All diets permitted reasonable development of E. cautella. but diets E and H. tended to be adequate. More eggs were laid by the moths reared on diets E (266.7 eggs) and H (253.8 eggs) compared with other diets. However. the differences among diets E. C. D. H. K. and L as well as the differences among diets H. A. B. C. D. K. and L were due to random variation. Eggs from moths reared on diet H were the most viable (86.0%) while those from moths reared on diet K were the least viable (66.0%). The shortest developmental duration and the highest percentage of adult emergence were in diet L. Moths reared on diet F took 10 days longer to complete development and adult emergence was 15.0% lower. Longevity of male and female moths (mated or unmated) was influenced by the diet on which they were reared.

The suitability of four smoked fish species. namely. the Trigger fish (Balistes capriscus Gmelin). Catfish (Synodontis sp.), African catfish (Clarias gariepinus Burchel), and Nile tilapia (Orcochromis niloticus Linnaeus), for hide beetle. Dermestes maculatus (De Geer). development was investigated in the laboratory over a 90-day period. Significant (P<0.05) weight losses were recorded in the two multiple-choice and one no-choice tests with the highest weight loss (78.50±7.15 %) occurring in Synodontis sp. and the lowest weight loss (46.7±2.92 %) occurring in O. niloticus. Interactions between fish species and test methods were significant (P<0.05). The number of D. maculatus which emerged when the pest had free movement from one fish jar to another jar was significantly (P<0.05) higher compared with the test where the pest was confined to ajar containing a single fish species. Significantly higher number of adults developed on Clarias in the no-choice test.

Robotic prosthetic hands - A review
Authors: Ubosi Dozie
Published: September 2023

 Robotic Prosthetic Hands (RPH) are made with the aim of assisting amputees with activities of daily living (ADL). Upper limb amputations lead to physical and mental difficulty because of the many uses of the human hand. Researchers have been working to improve sensory feedback and dexterous manipulation in these devices to improve embodiment and reduce the abandonment rates. Efforts to implement sensory feedback have been explored by researchers in the field of biomedical engineering whereas efforts to improve dexterous manipulation are directed towards the fields of mechanical engineering and computer science. There are numerous problems faced in the field of robotic prostheses such as end point control, sensory feedback, the weight/dexterity dilemma, and the implementation of invasive methods. RPH learning to grasp from touch with tactile sensors is an additional area of research that is promising for robotic grippers. The design of RPH requires multidisciplinary knowledge related to physiology, anatomy, electronics, mechanical design, and software which renders it a complex challenge.

Authors: Sampath G
Published: September 2023

 An algorithm that solves a linear program by using planes exterior to the feasible region is described. Given a linear program in standard form, a constraint derived from the given objective function is added to the constraint set, and the objective function is removed. The added constraint is designed to make the program initially infeasible. It is then incrementally and unidirectionally moved toward the solution vertex in cycles, which causes the constraint set to change each time. Each cycle consists of two steps: moving the added constraint and testing the updated constraint set for feasibility. Ultimately the moving constraint reaches the solution vertex and the program becomes feasible, this signals both the solution of the program and termination of the algorithm. Because of unidirectionality, the algorithm is guaranteed to terminate. If fixed point arithmetic with B bit numbers is used and feasibility testing complexity with N variables is O(f(N)), then the worst-case complexity of the exterior plane algorithm is 2B O(f(N)). f(N) is O(N3) with the simplex method and ~O(N3.5) with an interior point method. The algorithm can be substantially improved by using binary search, the resulting complexity is B O(f(N)). The algorithm is compared qualitatively with three types of LP algorithms: simplex, ellipsoid, and interior point.

Published: September 2023

Background: Pain associated with arteriovenous fistula puncture is a significant problem among hemodialysis patients. The process of needle insertion often causes considerable physical and psychological discomfort, leading to a decrease in perceived quality of life.
Study Objective : Evaluate the level of pain experienced by hemodialysis patients due to arteriovenous fistula puncture.
Methods and Materials: A cross-sectional study design was used, with a sample size of 40 patients under hemodialysis. The intensity of pain was measured for these patients during the needle insertion by means of a rating analogies scale. The selection of the study sample was done through a purposive sample from a hospital setting. Data collection was conducted using the rating analogies scale. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data on pain intensity.
Results: The results showed that the intensity of pain ranged from moderate to severe. The discussion of the results focused on the implications of the findings for clinical practice and the need for further research in the area. The study highlighted the importance of considering the intensity of pain related to arteriovenous fistula puncture among hemodialysis patients, and the need for further research into interventions that can reduce the associated pain.
Conclusion and Recommendations : Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that arteriovenous fistula puncture causes moderate to severe pain in hemodialysis patients. Therefore, it is recommended that healthcare providers should take necessary measures to reduce the intensity of pain during the procedure. These measures may include the use of pain-relieving medications and other methods such as distraction , relaxation techniques and cryotherapy.

Introdução: A educação na infância tem sido reconhecida como aspecto fundamental para o desenvolvimento global da criança, sendo a escola, o espaço onde se proporciona condições para ofertas pedagógicas intencionalmente planejadas, oferecendo condições para que as crianças exerçam o papel de ator social e sujeito de direitos. Nessa premissa, a documentação pedagógica, estratégia contemplada nas atuais pedagogias participativas, tem despontado como ferramenta relevante no cenário de Educação Infantil, sendo necessário apropriação prática para a obtenção de êxito nos resultados. Objetivo: Compreender essa centralidade de documentação pedagógica como estratégia contemplada para efetivação de pedagogias participativas na Educação Infantil, segundo a literatura sobre a temática. Método: Revisão de Literatura, realizada nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC), Scopus e Google Acadêmico, no período que compreende entre outubro de 2022 e novembro de 2022. Resultados: Foram constituídas três bases analíticas, a saber: Uma prática investigativa, adocumentação pedagógica e a observação e os registros na documentação pedagógica. Considerações finais: Evidenciou-se que, na prática, a documentação pedagógica impacta em condições para a reflexão das crianças sobre suas vivências, impulsionando-as a se inserirem em atividades investigativas a partir de suas problematizações, durante o processo pedagógico na Educação Infantil e, como via de mão dupla, oferece condições para a autoformação dos professores e professoras, com ênfase na reflexão sobre as práticas docentes.

O artigo apresenta um levantamento completo das toponímias capixabas em nível municipal. Traz uma caracterização, dentre outros pontos, de quantas e quais são as taxonomias de topônimos dos municípios do Espírito Santo. Abrange todas as origens linguísticas que os topônimos municipais podem ter, bem como apresenta quais taxonomias predominam, segundo o modelo proposto por Dick (1992). Verifica ainda se essas taxonomias estão distribuídas conforme algum padrão regional e temporal de organização. Para além, de forma inédita para o estado, trata do uso de topônimos auxiliares na escala municipal e ainda lida com a questão das diferenças entre os usos oficiais e popularmente consagrados entre a população.

Uma reabilitação oral busca desfechos estéticos e funcionais, podendo fazer uso da odontologia multidisciplinar, envolvendo várias especialidades para tratar casos clínicos. Logo, a depender da situação, manobras no tecido periodontal podem ser realizadas em procedimentos que envolvam laminados cerâmicos. O artigo apresenta como objetivo expor uma revisão de literatura, sobre a associação entre biótipo periodontal e prótese dental. A literatura é segura em afirmar que o biótipo periodontal pode influenciar diretamente em reabilitações orais com prótese fixa, seja em curto ou a longo prazo. Em tratamentos protéticos, é necessário avaliar o contorno gengival (zênite), para que se tenha uma reprodução natural da interface prótese-gengiva. Favorecendo numa proporção apropriada entre altura e largura dental, o que pode ser mais visto na região anterior. Na obtenção de um resultado satisfatório em reabilitação oral, é imprescindível que tenha uma associação entre o conjunto: face do paciente, linha do sorriso, lábios, tecido periodontal e a prótese. Especialmente em reabilitações complexas, tem-se uma necessidade do cirurgião-dentista executar uma abordagem multidisciplinar, fazendo um planejamento integrado. No entanto, ainda é um desafio clínico obter uma apropriada interação entre próteses fixas e biótipo periodontal, buscando tratamentos harmoniosos.
