Authors: A* Bajaj
Published: May 2024

Duct adenoma appears as an exceptionally discerned, benign tumefaction comprised of distorted glandular articulations circumscribed within a fibrous tissue capsule and intermingled within a sclerotic stroma. Initially scripted Azzopardi and Salm in 1984, the adenomatous lesion is configured of miniature and intermediate ducts disseminated within peripheral breast tissue. Alternative nomenclature of sclerosing papilloma is not recommended.
Laparoscopic Appendectomy: About a Prospective Monocentric Series of 251 Cases
Authors: Ammari Smail
Published: May 2024

Thanks to numerous studies comparing laparoscopic appendectomy and open appendectomy, laparoscopic appendectomy has become the gold standard in young women. However, its role in the management of acute appendicitis in men remains controversial. The aim of our study was to assess the feasibility, reproducibility, technical difficulties, and identify the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic appendectomy. Materials and Methods: Prospective monocentric descriptive feasibility study. We included all adult patients over 15 years of age, operated on for acute appendicitis over 36 months (February 2019-February 2022). Results: A total of 251 patients were operated on for acute appendicitis. The mean age of our patients was 34 years ± 14 years (range 15 - 82 years). Male predominance in (57.37%). Intraoperatively, the phlegmonous form was the most frequent (148 patients = 58.97%). The appendix was often located in the internal latero-caecal position (120 patients = 47.81%). The mean operating time was 37.06 ± 15.76 minutes (range 21 to 97 minutes). Only one conversion was recorded (0.4%). The rate of postoperative complications was (3.58%), including 03 (1.19%) deep collections of the right iliac fossa. Pain assessed on the visual analog scale (VAS) was often of low intensity (176 patients = 70.12%). Conclusion: In addition to the well-known advantages of laparoscopic approach, our results have shown the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic appendectomy.
A Narrative Approach to Understanding and Using the Role of Hope in Adolescent and Emerging Adult Non-Suicidal Self-Injury
Authors: Petti Theodore A , A Chen
Published: May 2024

Background: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is highly prevalent in adolescence and represents a maladaptive coping strategy. Insufficient attention has been paid to NSSI as a critical factor for suicide, the second leading cause of death in adolescents and young adults. Hopelessness frequently factors into suicide and suicide attempts. Aims: We consider NSSI from the clinician’s perspective in assessment, case formulation and treatment considerations with the added perspective for the role of hopefulness in NSSI and suicide. Method: Google and PubMed databases were searched to consider the role hopefulness plays in both NSSI and suicide of youth and young adults in assessment, clinical course, interventions, and outcome. Key words included adolescents, adults, children, NSSI, hope, assessment, treatment, clinical course, and outcome. Reverse citations were also conducted to assure timeliness. Results: Increasing attention has been paid to stratification of commonly considered risk factors for suicide and suicide attempts in the target population. Rationale for considering NSSI as a critical suicide risk factor and for hope’s role in the continuum of suicidal behavior is documented and emphasized. Relevant models for suicide are described to support and provide clinicians guidance to consider NSSI and hopefulness in case formulation, determining safety, and developing useful interventions for youth engaging in or contemplating NSSI and/or suicide. Conclusions: NSSI is a major risk factor for suicide in youth. Hope plays major roles in NSSI and suicide and should be considered in assessment, case formulation, and interventions in youth manifesting NSSI and suicidal, ideation, and behavior.

Published: May 2024

The experiments were carried out to validate an analytical method and to examine the impact of various decontaminating solutions on the removal of acephate residues from okra. Acephate analysis was performed using HPLC-UV, and sample extraction was done using the QuEChERS method. Method validation encompassed assessing specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy, as well as limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ). The method exhibited excellent linearity with R2 values ≥ 0.99. LOD and LOQ were determined at 0.5 µg mL−1 and 2 µg mL−1, respectively. The results indicated average recoveries ranging from 80.2% to 83.3% with a % RSD below 5%. The decontamination procedures include rinsing with running tap water, soaking in lukewarm water, 2% CH3COOH, 1% NaCl, 5% NaHCO3, 0.01% KMnO4, and in commercially available decontamination products such as nimwash, veggie clean, and arka herbiwash for a duration 10 minutes. Among all the treatments, soaking in nimwash solution showed remarkable effectiveness (96.75% removal), followed by veggie clean (94.97% removal) and arka herbiwash (95.80% removal). Washing okra samples in running tap water was found to be the least effective compared to other treatments.
Geoarchaeological evidence of late and post-Antiquity (5th-9th c. AD) climate changes recorded at the Roman site in Plemići Bay (Zadar region, Croatia)
Authors: Fabian Welc
Published: May 2024

Remains of a vast Roman pottery production complex were found on the shore of the Plemići Bay (Općina Ražanac, Zadar county) in 2012, and confirmed by geophysical survey. Ground-penetrating radar measurements revealed outline of a rectangular building that finds analogies with Roman storehouses (horreum). The area occupied by remains of the Roman pottery workshop was covered by immense soil-debris flows. Three geological exposures located to the north of the remains of the Roman building were documented using lithological and malacological analysis, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The profiles revealed at least three generations of slope sediments, formed in result of intensive soil or debris flows in a dry climate, most probably in 5th c. AD. In the next, wet phase sediments were transported downslope and deposited on the Roman structures after 5th c. AD. Environmental conditions at Pelmići were supply with paleoclimate evidence from the Adriatic region. At ca. 1.5 cal. BP lake levels in the eastern Adriatic area were drastically reduced, probably because of strong decrease in humidity, correlated with the so-called North Atlantic Bond event 3. The drought was followed by a humid episode, also attested at the Plemići archaeological site.

This paper presents the Late Glacial stage of the development of the Białe Ługi peatland in the southern Holy Cross Mountains, based on a comprehensive palaeoenvironmental data. A complex analysis of palynology, Cladocera, sed imentology, geochemistry and 14C dating were used. Organic deposition was initiated during the Oldest Dryas. The sedimentary record of the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems reflects considerable difference between cooler (Oldest, Older and Younger Dryas) and warmer phases (Břlling and Allerřd). Periods of intensified interaction between aeolian processes and peatland are related to stages of disappearing vegetation and changes in aquatic invertebrate communities. We therefore suggest that peatlands were created as a result of local lithological-structural, tectonic, hydrogeological and morphological conditions, and the peatland development rate was largely influenced by changing climatic conditions, which determined local vegetation development, intensity of denudation processes and water level changes. The results validate significance of selection and use of several methods, as well as value of biogenic deposits from the Białe Ługi peatland as archives of past climate change in the Małopolska Upland. Relatively stable water conditions and uninter rupted biogenic sedimentation in the Late Glacial that were provided by the geological structure and relief suggest the studied peatland is a leading one in the region.
Large-scale deformations in Neogene deposits near Dobrzyń on the Vistula (central Poland) – thrusting from N/NE or valley-side glaciotectonics in the Płock Basin?
Authors: Roman Małgorzata , Żuk Rafał
Published: May 2024

The article is focused on the most recent investigations of glaciotectonic structures in high escarpment exposures of the Vistula valley from Dobrzyń to Kuzki in the western part of the Płock Basin. Deformations involve Neogene and occasionally the Lower Pleistocene deposits and they are not expressed as landforms. Structural investigations and analysis of archival geological data provided new information on the origin of large-scale shear structures. Results obtained are clearly contrary to the concept of Brykczyński (1982) regarding valley-side glaciotectonics in the Płock Basin. An emergence of the extensive zone of serial thrust structures of significant amplitude (up to 100–150 m) was found to have not been controlled by a palaeovalley. A driving mechanism is interpreted as a gravity spreading in front of ice sheets advancing from north-northeast during the South Polish Complex (Dorst-Elsterian).
Epidemiologic, clinicopathologic, and diagnostic findings in pet rabbits with myxomatosis caused by the California MSW strain of myxoma virus: 11 cases (2022–2023)

Published: May 2024

OBJECTIVE

To determine epidemiologic features of naturally occurring myxomatosis in domestic rabbits in California and to characterize clinicopathologic and diagnostic findings.

ANIMALS

11 client-owned rabbits, Oryctolagus cuniculus subsp domesticus.

CLINICAL PRESENTATION

A prospective study of pet rabbits with myxomatosis seen at an exotic animal specialty clinic in Santa Cruz county, California, was conducted between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2023. Rabbits were included in the study if they had bilateral blepharedema and were PCR positive for myxoma virus.

RESULTS

All infected rabbits had spent time outdoors. Common clinical signs included bilateral blepharedema (11/11), anogenital edema (10/11), rectal temperature ≥ 39.7 °C (5/9), and sudden death (4/11). Eyelid biopsies from all rabbits (11/11) were positive for myxoma virus by qualitative PCR followed by Sanger sequencing (100% nucleotide identity to strain MSW, also known as California/San Francisco 1950 [Genbank accession KF148065]). Most rabbits had keratinocytes containing eosinophilic intracytoplasmic viral inclusions in biopsies of edematous skin (8/11) and lymphocyte necrosis in the spleen (10/11). Immunohistochemistry identified myxoma virus in samples of skin, heart, lung, ileum, spleen, and lymph node.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Clinical signs of myxomatosis caused by the MSW strain of myxoma virus are distinctive but subtle. Cases occur regularly in the Santa Cruz and San Jose regions of California. As infection with this virus is almost 100% fatal and no vaccine is available in the US, owners of domestic rabbits in endemic areas should keep their pets indoors or behind mosquito screens. Myxomatosis is a reportable disease in the US, and the appropriate state or federal agencies should be contacted when outbreaks occur.
Analysis of Corpus Analysis of English Translation in Vocational Education Based on Semantic Contrastive Analysis
Authors: Li Xia
Published: May 2024

This paper introduces a novel method combining semantic contrast learning and event detection, employing an attention mechanism to compare and analyze semantic features between two distinct text types. We utilize a convolutional neural network to extract deep semantic information from texts, while the attention mechanism models global dependencies to elucidate complex semantic information. In event detection, we construct positive and negative samples using event-type labeling information, facilitating the differentiation of semantic spaces associated with various event types in text. We apply this methodology to a corpus relevant to vocational education English translation, aiming to extract and analyze stylistic features. Our results reveal distinct lexical characteristics; the Type Token Ratio (TTR) and Standardized Type Token Ratio (STTR) for the Statements are calculated at 25 and 45.08, respectively. In the analysis of high-frequency words within the English translation of the Report, nouns and adjectives are predominant, with counts of 4,466 and 1,962, respectively, surpassing those in the English translation of the Consultation. Syntactic feature analysis indicates that the overall trends in both text types are consistent; however, there is a notable variation in sentence length deviation, which increases from 1.47 to 3.36 in the Report and decreases from 2.49 to 2.31 in the Consultation. This differential analysis underscores the nuanced stylistic adaptations between the two translated text types.

Published: May 2024

Objective: To investigate how accountants perceive the use of Accounting Information Systems (SIC) in their professional activities.
 
Theoretical Framework: Considering the current context, in order to maintain themselves, organizations need useful and timely information, which will support the decision-making process. Such information is generated by accounting, through SIC - which were essentially manual, however, through disruptive technological advances and Information Technology resources, they have become increasingly robust and effective in contributing to the execution of accounting activities.
 
Method: Descriptive research, field research type, with a questionnaire (survey), with 267 responses obtained, analyzed using the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet tool.
 
Results and Discussion: They suggest that the majority of professionals have previous experience with SIC, and currently use computerized and integrated systems, which provides greater speed to the information cycle. It was observed that professionals who participated in continuing education courses focused on Information Systems were more critical about them and their specificities, in addition to working with more complex systems, which suggests that the more technical qualifications the professional possesses, you will become more capable of working with complex systems.
 
Research Implications: The research highlights the historical evolution of Accounting Information Systems (SIC) from ancient times to the present day, emphasizing their importance in generating information for business decisions.
 
Originality/Value: A gap was identified in the existence of studies that specifically address Accounting Information Systems (SIC) from the accountants' point of view. There is a lack of research that establishes a direct connection between the activities performed by accountants and the use of these systems.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by a chronic pattern of relapses and remissions, with variable presentations ranging from mild skin manifestations to severe, life-threatening illness. The disease is multisystematic, with the most severe complications related to the kidneys and nervous system. Among the SLE manifestations, lupus nephritis is common, observable in approximately 40% of SLE patients. This study, conducted at a private hospital in Saudi Arabia, aimed to evaluate the demographic characteristics, clinical presentations, and laboratory results of patients with SLE.
Methods: This retrospective study involved 105 SLE patients who were seen in the rheumatology clinic at the Specialized Medical Center in Riyadh from 2007 to 2022. The medical records of the patients were reviewed for patient demographics, clinical and serological characteristics, and therapeutic data.
Results: The largest proportion (34.3%) was aged between 31 and 40 years. Female dominancy was found, as females represented 91 patients (86.7%). Joint involvement was found to be the most affected organ in the majority of the patients, accounting for 80 patients (76.2%), while the least affected organ was the heart, with cardiac manifestations present in 7 patients (6.7%).
Conclusion: The majority of patients (95.2%) displayed a positive antinuclear antibody test, and more than one-half of the patients (68.6%) displayed positive anti-double stranded DNA. The most reported medication was hydroxychloroquine in 104 patients (99%), followed by steroids in 89 patients (84.8%).

RELAÇÕES ENTRE A NUTRIÇÃO COMPORTAMENTAL E O PNAE
Authors: Andrade de Almeida Letícia , Rillary Almeida Soares Rillary , Oliveira Xavier Ricarte Raquel
Published: May 2024

Introdução: A nutrição comportamental está presente em todas as fases da vida, e extrapola a ação de apenas nutrir-se, de ter prazer e bem-estar no ato de alimentar-se. É uma forma “simbólica” de relacionar os sentimentos a alimentação, podendo essa relação ser positiva ou não. A nutrição comportamental reflete-se a partir do meio social, religioso, familiar, status e memorias afetivas pelas fases da vida, onde têm potencial de repercutir nas escolhas e preferências durante a introdução dos alimentos ao longo do crescimento, desde a infância, e é nessa fase, geralmente, onde os indivíduos começam a se relacionar fora do âmbito familiar. Visto isso, pode-se afirmar que o alimento tem um papel relevante, para além das questões de saúde, a nutrição comportamental está diretamente ligada ao desenvolvimento desse processo de socialização, principalmente no ambiente escolar, que é onde as crianças e adolescentes passam boa parte do seu tempo e conseguem ter contato com a diversidade, e isso gera impactos no processo estudantil das crianças. O desempenho escolar é influenciado por diversos fatores e a alimentação é um ponto relevante, principalmente quando se fala de crianças em fase de crescimento intelectual e físico, visando abranger, também esse fator, o Brasil criou um programa nacional de alimentação escolar (PNAE), que “oferece alimentação escolar e ações de educação alimentar e nutricional a estudantes de todas as etapas da educação básica pública”.
Objetivo: Relacionar a nutrição comportamental com o Plano Nacional de Alimentação Escolar.
Método: Este estudo foi orientado pela professora Raquel de Oliveira Xavier Ricarte, o mesmo tem uma abordagem qualitativa e será realizado utilizando a metodologia expositiva, a partir de análises bibliográficas, relacionando-as com o PNAE. A seleção dos documentos será feita por meio de pesquisas em sites acadêmicos, como: Scielo e Google acadêmico. Os descritores serão: PNAE e nutrição comportamental, nutrição comportamental e a escola. A seleção será feita partindo da leitura dos resumos dos artigos científicos encontrados, o critério a ser aplicado para seleção é essencialmente o artigo abordar, analisar ou descrever as relações entre a nutrição comportamental e o PNAE, após selecionados ocorrerá a leitura minuciosa de cada um.
Resultados (esperados / parciais): Após a análise bibliográfica, espera-se que seja possível evidenciar a relação entre a nutrição comportamental e o PNAE, destacando a importância da alimentação para o ambiente escolar e o desempenho acadêmico e social dos alunos.

DIFICULDADES NO DIAGNÓSTICO DIFERENCIAL DO TRANSTORNO AFETIVO BIPOLAR E TRANSTORNO DE PERSONALIDADE BORDERLINE: DESAFIOS NA ÁREA DA SAÚDE MENTAL
Authors: Aimeê Araújo da Costa Sara , Silva Sousa Leticia , Alcira Cunha Samai
Published: May 2024

Introdução: No âmbito da Saúde Mental algumas questões tornam-se bem desafiadoras para os profissionais e uma delas é o fato de conceder um diagnostico diferencial de transtornos com sintomas muito semelhantes aos pacientes, sendo assim o caso do Transtorno Afetivo Bipolar (TAB) e o Transtorno de Personalidade Borderline (TPB). 
Segundo o Manual Diagnostico e Estatístico de Transtornos 5° edição (DSM-5), o Transtorno Afetivo Bipolar é dividido de duas formas, bipolar do tipo I e do tipo II, os mesmos não apresentam grandes diferenciações entre si, salvo os critérios para o diagnóstico. As características do tipo I são apresentadas como um transtorno maníaco-depressivo clássico ou psicose afetiva, diferem da descrição clássica, apenas por não haver exigência de experiencia na vida de um episódio depressivo maior. O bipolar do tipo II, requer um ou mais episódios depressivos maiores e pelo menos um episódio de hipomania ao longo da vida do paciente. (DSM-5, 2014).
Objetivo: Analisar os problemas mais comuns enfrentados por profissionais de saúde mental no diagnóstico diferencial e manejo de pacientes com transtorno de personalidade borderline e transtorno bipolar por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica.
Método: Este é um estudo de revisão de natureza bibliografia narrativa. Trata-se de um artigo qualitativo baseado em amplas pesquisas feitas para descrever, com o ponto de vista teórico, os problemas mais comuns enfrentados por profissionais de saúde mental no diagnóstico final, contextualizando diversos autores e sob a perspectiva prioritária do CID e DSM.
Resultados (esperados / parciais): Espera-se identificar as principais diferenças entre os Transtornos Bipolar e Borderline, além de examinar as dificuldades de diagnóstico diferencial entre elas e contribuir para o enriquecimento temático e a compreensão das semelhanças sintomáticos entre os dois Transtornos, que produzem a dificuldade na distinção diagnóstica.

Influence of different endodontic irrigants on shear bond strength of composite resin to coronal dentin: An in vitro study
Authors: Verma Sonali , Singh Divya , Jain Gaurav , Shukla Preeti , Misra Pradyumna
Published: May 2024

Objectives:

Endodontic irrigants are critical in root canal treatments, but their influence on the coronal dentin bond strength of composite restorations is a key concern for a favorable clinical prognosis. The present in vitro study explores the effect of different endodontic irrigants on shear bond strength of composite resin.

Material and Methods:

Fifty permanent human mandibular molars were sectioned to expose coronal dentin and divided into five groups. Each group received a specific irrigant treatment before composite resin bonding. Shear bond strength was examined using Instron Universal testing machine, and statistical analysis was conducted using post hoc Tukey’s test and analysis of variance.

Results:

Group A (Saline) showed a mean shear bond strength of 18.5 Megapascal (MPa). Group B [sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl)] had mean shear bond strength of 15.2 MPa. Group C [Chlorhexidine (CHX) Gluconate] exhibited mean shear bond strength of 20.3 MPa. Group D ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) recorded mean shear bond strength of 14.8 MPa, while Group E [citric acid (CA)] had the highest mean shear bond strength at 22.7 MPa.

Conclusion:

The type of endodontic irrigant used significantly affected the shear bond strength of composite restorations to coronal dentin. CHX gluconate and CA displayed superior bond strengths compared to Saline, NaOCl, and EDTA. This underscores the importance of irrigant selection in achieving successful composite restorations in endodontically treated teeth.
Accelerating Density Matrix Embedding with Stochastic Density Fitting Theory – An Application to Hydrogen Bonded Clusters
Authors: Sun Yi
Published: May 2024

We demonstrate how using semi-stochastic Density Fitting (ss-DF) can accelerate self-consistent Density Matrix Embedding Theory (DMET) calculations by reducing the number of auxiliary orbitals in the three-indexed DF integrals. This results in time savings in building the Hartree Fock (HF) Coulomb and the Exchange Matrix and in integral transformation from the Atomic Orbital (AO) basis to the Embedding orbital (EO) basis. We then apply ss-DF to a range of hydrogen bonded clusters. First, we examine how the amount of deterministic space impacts the quality of the calculation in a (H2O)10 cluster. Next, we test the computational efficiency of ss-DF when compared to deterministic DF (d-DF) in water clusters containing 6 to 30 molecules of water using a triple-ζ basis set. Finally, we perform numerical structural optimisations on water and hydrogen fluoride clusters, revealing that DMET can recover weak interactions if the fragments are appropriately chosen. This work therefore demonstrates the potential of using stochastic resolution of identity in quantum embedding theories and their potential to recover weak interactions.

The scientific challenge currently receiving much attention is the catalytic conversion of non-biodegradable polymers into versatile chemical platform molecules. As a model of a chemical upcycling process, we have developed a homogeneous catalytic system to break down persistent polyethylene waste into valuable chemical intermediates that could ultimately be used to produce important chemical products, including environmentally friendly, biodegradable plastics. In the first step, a smart pyrolysis of polyolefin waste yields oils, containing long-chain olefins as the major components. Then, for the next transformation step, tailored BICAAC-Ru olefin metathesis catalysts were used in combination with an alkene isomerization catalyst (RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3) for the transformation of the pyrolysis oil to propylene via isomerization metathesis (ISOMET) reaction in ethylene atmosphere. Eventually, translation of the highly efficient single-metal catalyst system enabled ISOMET reaction to a 900 mL reactor setup and repetitive batch experiments could prove the long-term stability of the catalyst system and the highest turn over number (TON = 3800) reported so far for propylene using polyethylene municipal waste feedstock. Propylene content in the gas phase achieved the 20 vol%. Ultimately, these results pave the way for the large-scale applicability of this process as a relevant demonstration of the combined application of adapted catalyst design and chemical engineering optimization with the aim of establishing a multi-dimensional circular economy concept in the chemical industry.
Controlled aryl quantum well formation on biopolymer-wrapped carbon nanotubes mediated by hydrogen peroxide
Authors: Piletsky Stanislav , Keblish Erin , Heller Daniel
Published: May 2024

Quantum well defect-modified single walled carbon nanotubes are environmentally sensitive nanomaterials with wide-ranging applications in biosensing, imaging, light harvesting, quantum computing, energy storage and catalysis. The most common method for covalent functionalization of nanotubes involves reactions with aryl diazonium salts to generate sp3 aryl defect sites. These reactions typically employ harsh conditions which result in poor control and scalability, and incompatibility with biomaterials. We describe herein a rapid aryl diazonium functionalization reaction wherein hydrogen peroxide functions as a reducing agent. The reaction conditions are mild, enabling the quantum well defect functionalization of nanotubes in aqueous solutions at room temperature, with nitrogen and oxygen gas as the primary by-products. This reaction is compatible with both DNA and synthetic polymer-wrapped nanotubes with no apparent disruption to the wrapping agent. As a result, this chemistry is highly complementary to polymer-based nanotube purification reactions such as aqueous two-phase extraction. The reaction is also compatible with unwrapped SWCNTs and in situ generation of diazonium salts from anilines, enabling substantial scalability and versatility with a greater variety of functional groups. The reaction can be easily monitored in real-time via fluorescence analysis and so can be readily controlled and terminated upon reaching the desired degree of functionalization. Overall, this reaction greatly simplifies the production of covalently functionalized carbon nanotubes, expanding their potential for industrial and biomedical applications.

Esse artigo é parte do desenvolvimento da pesquisa de mestrado Princípios para a formação corporal e cênica do Cantor Popular e visa divulgar a temática do corpo e da expressividade cênica deste cantor, buscando elencar alguns aspectos que podem potencializar a performance artística do mesmo. Com o objetivo de incluir a multiplicidade de componentes que constituem indicadores do trabalho corporal e cênico do artista, aqui apresento cinco aspectos - Ação Vocal e Comunicação, Consciência da linguagem corporal, Performance na Canção Popular, Elementos estruturadores da Canção, Espaço cênico musical. Buscou-se fontes em outras áreas de atuação nas quais esses temas já são alvo de reflexão. Dessa forma, constatou-se que esses conceitos são amplos, se entrelaçam e são tratados de formas diversas na literatura consultada.

Abrir. Foi com este verbo que abrimos a chamada para a submissão de artigos a este dossiê. Abrir no sentido de facilitar o encontro de ideias, pensamentos e práticas sobre o que diz respeito aos estudos vocais e musicais nas artes da cena. Abrir no sentido de expandir e permitir fluir reflexões que muitas vezes não encontram oportunidade de afluir para além das fronteiras das inestimáveis experiências artísticas, estéticas e pedagógicas. Abrir também como verbo do somar e do multiplicar, afinal, quando abrimos vozes no discurso musical, sucede-se a justaposição de frequências e criam-se harmonias, somam-se vibrações. Abrir vozes é também multiplicar as possibilidades perceptivas e abrir espaço para perspectivas múltiplas e diversas. Abrir no gerúndio, abrindo, para enfatizar que se trata de uma ação em processo. Vozes e musicalidades, no plural, para evidenciar a multiplicidade poética, estética, social, filosófica e pedagógica que as pesquisas fundadas na interação voz e musicalidade são capazes de suscitar. Eis então o título deste número: Abrindo Vozes e Musicalidades.
Propusemos essa abertura e, atendendo às expectativas, recebemos trabalhos que consideramos contribuir substancialmente com as discussões sobre as relações entre voz, música, cena e performance. Recebemos trabalhos com diversificados recortes conceituais e perspectivas metodológicas, textos que nos possibilitam ampliar o olhar sobre os quatro eixos temáticos propostos: a musicalidade vocal na arte do teatro; a teatralidade vocal na arte da música; as potencialidades criativas da voz em diferentes linguagens artísticas e manifestações culturais; as musicalidades e/ou sonoridades como voz em cena. São textos que revelam uma escrita tanto poética quanto acadêmica, trabalhos que alçam a voz humana, com todas as suas potências artísticas, à condição de protagonista das reflexões sobre o fazer cênico e musical. Inclusive, alguns textos contribuem explicitamente com as discussões sobre esse tema no atual mundo da pandemia.
O conjunto dos textos aqui publicados perpassa por abordagens pedagógicas, historiográficas, críticas, poéticas, estéticas, éticas, técnicas, psicotécnicas, filosóficas, sociais, políticas, investigativas e conceituais do campo de pesquisa da articulação de voz, música, cena e performance. A diversidade de enfoque pode instigar a experiência com novos sabores, sabores que estimulam o desejo de saber e o prazer de aprender algo novo. Esta equipe editorial teve o privilégio de saborear esse banquete de saberes de forma inaugural. Agora, a fim de que esse prazer seja compartilhado com o mundo, é com entusiasmo que oferecemos ao público leitor este dossiê, um banquete para quem tem apetite de abrir vozes e musicalidades.

Jean-François Dupeyron: In the School of the Paris Commune. The Story of Another School – A Secondary Publication
Authors: Lamarre Jean-Marc
Published: May 2024

We know it, we have learned it, and often we teach it: public schools became secular for the first time in 1882. Well, no! As Jean-François Dupeyron said, the first secular public school in France was that of the Commune. Understanding why this fact was – and still is – obscured is the subject of Jean-François Dupeyron’s book, A L’École de la Commune de Paris: L’Histoire d’une Autre École. The author’s thesis is that, during the second half of the 19th century and up to World War I, the workers’ movement developed the project of another school, a school independent of both the Church and the State. It is against this other school, desired by the Commune and then the labor exchanges and the General Confederation of Labor, which was at the time of revolutionary syndicalists, that Jules Ferry’s school was constructed. Why has this “history of another school” been concealed?
