Introduction : La prise en charge de la douleur en médecine d’urgence préhospitalière est encore insuffisante. Cette étude a pour objectif d’évaluer les effets d’une délégation de l’évaluation et du traitement de la douleur à l’infirmier diplômé d’État (IDE) en Service mobile d’urgence et de réanimation (Smur) sur le suivi des recommandations de la Société française de médecine d’urgence (SFMU).

Méthode : Étude rétrospective de type avant–après réalisée au Smur du centre hospitalier universitaire (CHU) de Nîmes de janvier à mai 2017. Les IDE ont été formés, entre les deux phases, à un protocole de délégation de l’évaluation et du traitement de la douleur fondé sur les dernières recommandations.

Résultats : Cent quatre-vingt-un patients ont été inclus dans chaque groupe, 74 (40 %) femmes (âge moyen de 60 ± 18 ans). Les groupes étaient comparables à l’exception de la proportion d’interventions traumatologiques (11 % dans le groupe « avant » vs 20 % dans le groupe « après » ; p = 0,02). Les recommandations ont été respectées pour 12 (7 %) patients dans le groupe « avant », 21 (12 %) dans le groupe « après » (p = 0,10). Le seul facteur indépendant de respect des recommandations est le type d’intervention traumatologique (odds ratio = 9,7 ; intervalle de confiance à 95 % : [2,3–53,3] ; p < 0,01). Le nombre de patients ayant bénéficié d’une administration d’antalgique était respectivement de 55 (30 %) dans le groupe « avant » et de 73 (40 %) dans le groupe « après » (p = 0,05). La réévaluation de l’intensité douloureuse en fin de prise en charge a été consignée dans 11 (6 %) cas de la phase avant vs 38 (21 %) dans la phase après (p < 0,01). Dans le sous-groupe des patients n’ayant pas bénéficié de trinitrine, les recommandations ont été respectées respectivement pendant les phases « avant » et « après » chez 7 (6 %) patients vs 17 (14 % ; p = 0,03).

Conclusion : Malgré une augmentation du taux de prescription d’antalgiques et de réévaluation de la douleur, le protocole de délégation IDE n’a pas permis un meilleur respect des recommandations. L’établissement de protocoles spécifiques en fonction du type d’intervention, notamment traumatologique, pourrait être une piste de réflexion.

Published: September 2018

En 2018, les centrales de régulation d’urgences médicales devraient toutes être en mesure d’offrir certaines plus-values essentielles aux patients : une réanimation par téléphone avec accompagnement des témoins jusqu’à l’arrivée des secours, l’utilisation de réseaux de premiers répondants, ainsi que les défibrillateurs automatiques des domaines privés et publics via des applications Internet, l’assistance aux témoins pour réaliser des injections d’épinéphrine lors de réactions allergiques sévères ou de chlorhydrate de glucagon lors d’hypoglycémie. En complément, le bénéfice attendu des centrales d’urgences médicales visà-vis du système de soins dans son ensemble implique une meilleure efficience quant à l’engagement des moyens dont elles disposent. Cela ne peut se faire qu’en collectant les données liées à l’engagement des moyens (type, nombre, niveau de priorité) et en les corrélant avec la gravité de la situation observée sur site par les intervenants. Cette analyse permet d’estimer les taux de sur-triage et de sous-triage de la centrale lors de la décision d’envoi des moyens. L’utilisation appropriée des signaux prioritaires qui en découle permet également de réduire les risques des intervenants et de la population générale. Finalement, les fusions de centrales permettent de rationaliser certains coûts fixes, de faire face à des difficultés de recrutement et de formation, mais également d’augmenter la qualité de la régulation offerte à la population.
Évaluation de la gravité potentielle des erreurs interceptées par la conciliation des traitements médicamenteux en unité d’hospitalisation de courte durée

Published: September 2018

Introduction : La conciliation des traitements médicamenteux (CTM) à l’admission hospitalière permet en mode rétroactif d’intercepter puis de corriger des erreurs en comparant la prescription hospitalière initiale à la liste des médicaments pris à domicile par le patient ; cette liste ou ce bilan médicamenteux étant réalisé à partir du croisement de différentes sources. L’objectif de l’étude a été d’évaluer la gravité potentielle des erreurs interceptées par la CTM en unité d’hospitalisation de courte durée (UHCD).

Matériel et méthode : La gravité potentielle des erreurs interceptées a été évaluée à l’aide d’un algorithme clinique selon deux modalités : en considérant uniquement la période d’hospitalisation et sans considération de durée ; c’està- dire comme si l’erreur avait perduré au-delà de la sortie hospitalière du patient. Ces erreurs ont été positionnées selon cinq niveaux de gravité clinique potentielle : mineur, significatif, majeur, critique et catastrophique.

Résultats : La CTM réalisée auprès de 122 patients a permis d’identifier 461 erreurs. Les classes médicamenteuses majoritairement impliquées ont concerné les systèmes cardiovasculaire (n = 151, 32 %), nerveux (n = 103, 22 %) et digestif (n = 86, 18 %). Les principaux types d’erreurs ont été les omissions (n = 381, 83 %,) et les erreurs de dose (n = 57, 12 %). 1,1 % des erreurs auraient pu avoir des conséquences cliniques majeures pour les patients durant la période d’hospitalisation et 8,5 % d’entre elles des conséquences potentiellement majeures ou critiques en considérant un horizon temporel se prolongeant au-delà de l’hospitalisation.

Discussion : L’appréciation de la gravité potentielle des erreurs médicamenteuses traduit l’intérêt clinique de la CTM. Cette évaluation a permis de révéler en UHCD une sinistralité évitée jusque-là méconnue par les équipes médicales.
Positive Feedback Loops in Alzheimer’s Disease: The Alzheimer’s Feedback Hypothesis
Authors: Doig Andrew J.
Published: September 2018

The dominant model for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the amyloid cascade hypothesis, in which the accumulation of excess amyloid-β (Aβ) leads to inflammation, excess glutamate and intracellular calcium, oxidative stress, tau hyperphosphorylation and tangle formation, neuronal loss, and ultimately dementia. In a cascade, AD proceeds in a unidirectional fashion, with events only affecting downstream processes. Compelling evidence now exists for the presence of positive feedback loops in AD, however, involving oxidative stress, inflammation, glutamate, calcium, and tau. The pathological state of AD is thus a system of positive feedback loops, leading to amplification of the initial perturbation, rather than a linear cascade. Drugs may therefore be effective by targeting numerous points within the loops, rather than concentrating on upstream processes. Anti-inflammatories and anti-oxidants may be especially valuable, since these processes are involved in many loops and hence would affect numerous processes in AD.
Rethinking the Reserve with a Translational Approach: Novel Ideas on the Construct and the Interventions

Published: September 2018

The concept of brain, cognitive, and neural reserves has been introduced to account for the apparent discrepancies between neurological damage and clinical manifestations. However, these ideas are yet theoretical suggestions that are not completely assimilated in the clinical routine. The mechanisms of the reserves have been extensively studied in neurodegenerative pathologies, in particular in Alzheimer’s disease. Both human and animal studies addressed this topic by following two parallel pathways. The specific aim of the present review is to attempt to combine the suggestions derived from the two different research fields to deepen the knowledge about reserves. In fact, the achievement of a comprehensive theoretical framework on reserve mechanisms is an essential step to propose well-timed interventions tailored to the clinical characteristics of patients. The present review highlights the importance of addressing three main aspects: the definition of reserve proxy measures, the interaction between reserve level and therapeutic interventions, and the specific time-window of reserve efficacy.
Growth, mineral nutrient composition, and enzyme activity of strawberry as influenced by adding urea and nickel to the nutrient solution
Authors: Daneshmand Bahareh , Eshghi Saeid , Gharaghani Ali , Eshghi Homeira
Published: September 2018

BACKGROUND:

Nutrient solution composition affects plant growth, yield and fruit quality. Nitrate, ammonium and urea are absorbable forms of nitrogen for plants however each form can have different effects on plant growth aspects. Urea is a low cost source of nitrogen and urease enzyme is activated by nickel (Ni), so using these nutrients may be beneficial for strawberry plant growth. The influence of different nutrient solution on strawberry cv. “Paros” growth, enzymatic activity and leaf mineral content was studied in this research at Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran.

OBJECTIVES:

This study aimed to understand the role of Ni and different forms of nitrogen in the hydroponic culture on growth, nutrient composition and enzyme activity of strawberry plants, to identify whether a combination of different nitrogen form, especially urea and Ni, would improve plant growth and quality.

METHODS:

The effects of nitrate: ammonium: urea ratios (75:25:0, 50:25:25, 25:25:50, 25:0:75 and 0:0:100) and nickel sulfate concentration (0, 1 and 2 mg/L) in nutrient solutions were evaluated on strawberry cv. ‘Paros’ growth, mineral nutrient, and enzymatic activity. The trial was laid out as a factorial experiment with a completely randomized design. Rooted strawberry daughter plants were potted in 3 liter pots filled with cocopeat: perlite (1:1). Application of treatments started after establishment of the plants and continued for 5 months.

RESULTS:

Urea (25% and 50%) and nickel (1 mg/L) adding in the nutrient solution improved plant shoot and root dry weights. However, greater urea concentrations in the nutrient solution decreased nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous contents in leaves, but increased iron concentration. Urea concentration in strawberry leaves decreased when nickel concentration in the nutrient solution increased. Nitrate content in leaves of urea-fed plant decreased when urea concentration in nutrient solution increased. Urease activity increased with adding urea to the solution; however nitrate reductase activity was low at a high level of urea in nutrient solution.

CONCLUSION:

In addition to nitrate, adding nickel and urea in the nutrient solution improved growth and the enzymatic activity of strawberry plants, however it appeared that a higher rate of nickel and using urea as the only source of nitrogen was less beneficial. Overall, the best result was obtained from nickel at 1 mg/L and N source ratio of nitrate (50): ammonium (25): urea (25).
Development and validation of the method quantitative determination of enisamium iodide for the assessment of dissolution profile of antiviral agent
Authors: Burmaka O. V.
Published: September 2018

Assessment of the dissolution profiles is an important tool for characterization of solid drug products which need to be examined both at the stage of pharmaceutical development, and throughout their life cycle. It is necessary to control the release of the active substance from the dosage form after changes which are related to variation of drug product composition or technology used.

The aim of this work was to develop and validate a method for the study of dissolution profiles of the antiviral agent enisamium iodide, tablets.

The liquid chromatograph Agilent 1260 (USA) equipped with degasser, four-channel pump, autosampler, chromatographic column thermostat and diode area detector was used. The chromatographic column Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18, with dimensions 150 × 4.6 mm, filled by octadecylsilane sorbent, with a particles size of 5 μm, was used. The mobile phase is a mixture of a buffer solution of pH 2.5 containing sodium octane-1-sulfonate in an amount of 0.1%, water, acetonitrile (30:35:35 v/v/v). The dissolution tester ERWEKA DT 820 (Germany) was also used.

During the validation such parameters as specificity, accuracy, precision and robustness were confirmed. The correlation coefficients of linear regression (r) between the entered and found values for enisamium iodide is greater than 0.995.

Stability of the reference solutions and test solutions at storage at room temperature for 24 hours has been confirmed.

The developed HPLC method of the quantitative determination of enisamium iodide can be used for study of the dissolution profiles of enisamium iodide tablets.

Published: September 2018

Entre los múltiples retos que se plantean a la educación como herramienta para el logro de una verdadera ciudadanía, uno de los más justificados es la profesionalización de los colectivos pedagógicos. En tal intención, el acompañamiento pedagógico es una herramienta que agrupa múltiples estrategias dirigidas al desarrollo de competencias docentes, a partir del trabajo coordinado y según las necesidades y fortalezas individuales. En el presente artículo, derivado de un estudio que buscaba analizar las estrategias de acompañamiento pedagógico empleadas en dos centros educativos de primaria de Santo Domingo, República Dominicana; se intenta invitar a la reflexión sobre del rol que juegan dichas estrategias en el desarrollo profesional docente. Para el estudio se empleó el enfoque cualitativo, ya que la intención era profundizar en casos específicos; la prioridad fue cualificar y describir el fenómeno objeto de estudio a partir de rasgos determinantes. En correspondencia, se optó por la entrevista no estructurada, el grupo focal y el análisis documental. Los resultados revelan pobre participación de los docentes en el proceso, transgresión de momentos del acompañamiento, falta de diversidad y carácter sistemático en las actividades y pobre cohesión en su desarrollo. Se concluyó que esta estrategia de trabajo no se aprovecha en los centros educativos estudiados, como vía para incidir en el desarrollo continuo de competencias básicas del docente en ejercicio.

Eleven yellow fleshed potato genotypes namely Forza, Courage, Laura, Rosa Gold, Lady Rosetta, Cumbica, Asterix, Coronada, Granola, Cardinal and Diamant and five purple fleshed potato genotypes namely Jam Alu, KAC 10063, KAC 10064, KAC 10069, KAC 10097 were used as experimental materials. Total carotenoids, anthocyanin, phenolics, flavonoids, ascorbic acid and antioxidant activity in the above mentioned genotypes were determined to compare the antioxidant potentials of the genotypes. Analysis of above mentioned parameters resulted significant variation in their contents in both yellow and purple fleshed genotypes. The results indicate the purple fleshed genotypes showed significantly higher carotenoids, anthocyanin, flavonoids and total antioxidant activity than those of yellow fleshed genotypes. The findings also suggested the antioxidant activity of the genotypes positively correlates to the total content of carotenoids, anthocyanin and flavonoids. Since, purple fleshed genotypes showed higher antioxidant properties, the results of this study claim that the purple fleshed genotypes would be suitable for direct consumption as vegetables which might increase the health and food security of human beings.Bangladesh J.

An experiment was conducted for two consecutive years (2014-15 and 2015-16) in the field of Pulses Research Sub-Station, BARI, Gazipur during rabi (winter) season to evaluate the effect of zinc (Zn) and boron (B) application on the yield, nodulation and nutrient content of fieldpea (Pisum sativum L.). There were 16 treatment combinations comprising four levels each of zinc (0, 1, 2 and 3 kg ha-1) and boron (0, 1, 1.5 and 2 kg ha-1) along with a blanket dose of N12 P18 K30 S10 kg ha-1 over the treatments. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with three replications. Zinc (Zn) as ZnSO4.7H2O and boron (B) as H3BO3 were applied to the crop (cv. BARI Fieldpea-1). Results showed that the combination of Zn3B1.5 kg ha-1 produced the highest seed yield (1582 kg ha-1) in the 1st year and the Zn3B2 kg ha-1 gave the highest yield (1702 kg ha-1) in the 2nd year.The lowest seed yield was found in the control (Zn0B0). The Zn3B2 demonstrated the highest nodulation and nutrient and protein contents. The results suggest that the application of Zn3B2 kg ha-1 along with N12 P18 K30 S10 kg ha-1 can support the higher yield of fieldpea in terrace soils of Bangladesh.Bangladesh J. Agril.

A plenty of mangoes are spoiled and damaged every year due to improper postharvest handling and inefficient supply chain. Sufficient information are lacking on these issues in Bangladesh. The study assessed the postharvest handling of key actors in mango supply chains and estimated the post-harvest losses at different stakeholder level in Chapai Nawabganj district, Bangladesh. In total 83 respondents taking 30 mango growers and 53 mango traders were interviewed from Chapai Nawabganj and Dhaka districts. The study identified eight marketing channels for mango marketing. The prominent channel was Grower> Bepari> Urban Arathdar> Urban retailer> urban Consumer since 85.1% mangos moved through this channel. Bepari incurred the highest marketing cost (Tk.7338/ton) due to long distance coverage followed by retailer (Tk.1218/ton) and Faria (Tk.738/ton). Faria received the highest net margin (Tk.8068/ton) due to lower marketing cost and spoilage followed by retailer (Tk. 6601/ton) and Bepari (Tk.5394/ton).The results revealed that the estimated average postharvest losses were 14.11% and 9.61% at farm and traders’ level respectively. At farm level, these losses occurred during harvesting, sorting & grading, and transportation. Harvesting losses were due to cracking, bruising, compression, and disease and insect infestation. The highest loss was recorded at retail level (4.64%) followed by Bepari (3.95%). Farmers and Farias used different local carriers, whereas trucks and pick up van were used by Bepari to transport mango from assemble markets to urban wholesale markets. Major marketing problems in the supply chain were delayed sale and lack of buyers.Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 43(3): 471-487, September 2018

Temporality, Reproduction and the Not-Yet in Denis Villeneuve's Arrival
Authors: Carruthers Anne
Published: September 2018

The prolepsis in Denis Villeneuve's Arrival emphasises the cyclical nature of the film's narrative and anchors human reproduction as a central theme. Pregnancy, the pregnant body, and the physical, experiential nature of birth, commonly heavily gendered in film, are misleading focal points in the narrative. The presence of the unborn as a subtext in the film problematises Iris Marion Young's (2005) notion of pregnant embodiment as a subjective lived-body experience. The viewer is encouraged to empathise with the complexity of birth, life, and death as part of Louise's lived-body experience, but is finally confronted with the uncertainty of maternity, pregnancy and the unborn. When Barbara Duden (1992) calls the unborn foetus a “not-yet”, she describes the process by which the foetus achieves a legal status, and the precarious nature of ascribing life or personhood. The prolepsis, which punctuates the main narrative, emphasises the reversibility and irreversibility of life that does “not-yet” exist. Importantly, the constant hovering over the threshold of life in the film complicates the timeline of reproduction. At the end of the film's narrative, the main character Louise Banks (Amy Adams), is “not-yet” pregnant, is “not-yet” a parent, and has “not-yet” lost a child. The temporal shifts in the film rely on repositioning or reorienting both Louise and the viewer to the “not-yet” reproductive body and the “not-yet” child. By presenting events out of chronological time and returning to the time before and after a child is born, the film ultimately raises crucial questions about the ethics of reproduction, the quality of life, and issues of consent.
Through a (First) Contact Lens Darkly:Arrival, Unreal Time and Chthulucinema
Authors: Fleming David H. , Brown William
Published: September 2018

Science fiction is often held up as a particularly philosophical genre. For, beyond actualising mind-experiment-like fantasies, science fiction films also commonly toy with speculative ideas, or else engineer encounters with the strange and unknown. Denis Villeneuve's Arrival (2016) is a contemporary science fiction film that does exactly this, by introducing Lovecraft-esque tentacular aliens whose arrival on Earth heralds in a novel, but ultimately paralysing, inhuman perspective on the nature of time and reality. This article shows how this cerebral film invites viewers to confront a counterintuitive model of time that at once recalls and reposes what Gilles Deleuze called a “third synthesis” of time, and that which J. M. E. McTaggart named the a-temporal “C series” of “unreal” time. We finally suggest that Arrival's a-temporal conception of the future as having already happened can function as a key to understanding the fate of humanity as a whole as we pass from the anthropocene, in which humans have dominated the planet, to the “chthulucene,” in which humans no longer exist on the planet at all.
A Queer Aesthetic: Identity in Kurosawa Kiyoshi's Horror Films
Authors: Hudson Seán
Published: September 2018

Judith Butler argues that every category of personal identity, such as gender, the body, nationality, sexuality, or ethnicity, is predicated in part on a crisis between what that identity affirms and what it excludes. How this crisis manifests itself in everyday life is key to understanding how identities are reinforced, negotiated, subverted, or rejected on both social and individual levels. In this paper I consider three films directed by Kurosawa Kiyoshi between 2001 and 2006, arguing that they are especially competent in not only representing ontological tensions of this kind within their narratives, but also in manifesting these tensions so that they are made viscerally available to the viewer as affect. To understand how this is achieved, I draw on the work of Susan Sontag, Judith Butler, and Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, among others, to articulate how a stylistic system, or aesthetic, is developed across these films, and what techniques contribute to its production. I find that key components of this aesthetic include images of touch and performance, the transgression of bodily boundaries, and what Margrit Shildrick calls an “erotics of connection” between bodies.

We present a detailed investigation of X-ray emission from both flat and nanowire zinc oxide targets irradiated by 60 fs 5 × 1016 W/cm2 intensity laser pulses at a 0.8 µm wavelength. It is shown that the fluence of the emitted hard X-ray radiation in the spectral range 150–800 keV is enhanced by at least one order of magnitude for nanowire targets compared to the emission from a flat surface, whereas the characteristic Kα line emission (8.64 keV) is insensitive to the target morphology. Furthermore, we provide evidence for a dramatic increase of the fast electron flux from the front side of the nanostructured targets. We suggest that targets with nanowire morphology may advance development of compact ultrafast X-ray sources with an enhanced flux of hard X-ray emission that could find wide applications in highenergy density (HED) physics.

Biofilm formation on implanted medical devices is the reason for most of the nosocomial infections in clinical settings. Biofilms are more resistant to antimicrobials than their planktonic cells mainly because of the presence of the matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs), which acts as a physical barrier that limits the transport of antimicrobials inside the biofilm. A combinatorial antimicrobial approach of a non-thermal plasma and chlorhexidine (CHX) digluconate can be used to sterilize those surfaces contaminated with biofilm. However, the reason behind achieving this combinatorial decontamination is not known. Thus, in this study, we developed a mathematical model to explain the reason behind sterilization with the combinatorial treatment approach. It was found that the application of plasma prior to treatment with CHX is disrupting the biofilm and making it very porous. This is allowing CHX to penetrate deeper inside the porous biofilm, which is then effective at sterilizing the biofilm.

Supercapacitors as novel and efficient energy storage devices could provide a higher power density and energy density compared to other electronics and devices. However, traditional supercapacitors are readily damaged, which leads to degraded performance or even failure. To make them more durable and efficient, healable flexible shape memory-based supercapacitors were unprecedentedly explored by a transfer process, in which the conductive nano-carbon networks were decorated with pseudocapacitance materials, followed by embedding them into a shape memory polymer matrix containing healing reagents. The composite exhibited flexibility, supercapacitance and self-healing capability originating from the shape memory effect and healing reagent. The morphologies, thermal, mechanical and capacitive properties, and the self-healability of the composite were investigated. In particular, the influence of the compositions on the healing efficiency was considered. The optimized composite exhibited good capacitance (27.33 mF cm−1), stability (only 4.08% capacitance loss after 1500 cycles) and healable property (up to 93% of the healing efficiency). The findings demonstrated how to endow the flexible polymeric electronics with healable bio-mimetic properties and may greatly benefit the application of intelligent polymers in the field of multi-functional electrical materials.
