Le corps immigré à l’épreuve du contrôle sanitaire de frontière en Suisse
Authors: Santos Rodriguez Victor 
Published: December 2024

Cet article porte sur le contrôle sanitaire auquel les travailleur·euse·s étranger·ère·s saisonnier·ère·s devaient se soumettre à leur arrivée en Suisse durant la deuxième moitié du xxe siècle. Alors que les autorités du pays présentaient cette visite médicale comme une simple « formalité » conçue « dans le propre intérêt des travailleurs », les témoignages de celles et ceux qui l’ont vécue offrent un tout autre récit, pointant son caractère déshumanisant et insécurisant. L’article met en relief les limites du « discours sanitaire » officiel et suggère que la visite médicale ne répondait pas uniquement à des impératifs de santé publique. La thèse défendue est que l’examen pratiqué par la Suisse à l’entrée de son territoire occupait une place centrale au sein d’un dispositif panoptique de mise au travail. Ce rite de passage où le corps, dénudé, devait se laisser observer, se montrer transparent, participait à la socialisation disciplinaire des saisonnier·ère·s : il inaugurait leur immersion dans un « champ de visibilité totale » (au sens de Foucault) institué par l’État suisse à des fins de contrôle et au nom de la sécurité. Si la visite médicale drainait avec elle de puissants effets de domination, l’article pense les résistances sous la forme d’invisibilités stratégiques.
L’Encyclopédie nouvelle ou l’intelligence en « ordre dispersé »

Published: December 2024

Publiée entre 1833 et 1847, l’Encyclopédie nouvelle s’estimait héritière de la grande Encyclopédie de Diderot et d’Alembert. Animée par Pierre Leroux et Jean Reynaud, puis dès 1840 par le seul Reynaud, elle rassemblait un large réseau de collaborateurs. Elle tenta d’organiser les savoirs nouveaux : ceux correspondant aux bouleversements induis par les temps industriels, les révolutions politiques et les progrès des sciences et des techniques. Organique plutôt que critique, elle prétendait bâtir un monde nouveau. L’Encyclopédie nouvelle fut en cette période que bornèrent les révolutions de 1830 et 1848 le lieu d’une réflexion polarisée par le républicanisme et le socialisme. Car il s’agissait de découvrir la formule associant Liberté, Égalité et Fraternité. Cet accord général pouvait toutefois masquer des conflits d’interprétations que venaient souvent compliquer des différends personnels, notamment entre Leroux et Reynaud. Vaste et accidentée aventure éditoriale, elle demeura inachevée en 1847. Lu par la plus grande partie de l’intelligentsia européenne, ce corpus joua néanmoins un rôle majeur en ce premier xixe siècle clôturé, en 1848, par le Printemps des peuples.
Les rouages et les ressorts territoriaux de la « démocratie du faire » – le cas de Saillans (2014-2020)
Authors: Girard Sabine 
Published: December 2024

Au-delà de la sphère économique, l’attention renouvelée au « faire » concerne aussi la politique. La « démocratie du faire » désigne une variété d’initiatives où des citoyen·nes s’autosaisissent de problèmes et cherchent à les résoudre sans attendre ni dépendre des autres, œuvrant à une démocratisation de la société, selon le principe que le pouvoir est à celles et ceux qui font ou qui sont dans le faire société. Cet article explore les rouages et les ressorts territoriaux d’une telle « démocratie du faire », en s’appuyant sur le récit situé d’un cas empirique emblématique : celui de la gouvernance communale du village de Saillans (Drôme) entre 2014 et 2020, suite à l’élection d’une liste citoyenne. Il met en évidence les conditions et les facteurs territoriaux déterminants de l’expérience saillansonne ainsi que les transformations socio-spatiales et le renouvellement des ordres socio-politiques engendrés.
Enchevêtrement, Reconversion et éphémérité : production des territoires de la collecte et du recyclage des déchets à Hà Nôi
Authors: Fanchette Sylvie 
Published: December 2024

Le multi-usage des espaces du delta du fleuve Rouge et la pluri-activité des populations sont des stratégies très anciennes pour pallier le manque de place et de terres dans le delta très peuplé du fleuve Rouge. Un processus d’urbanisation complexe et multi-forme s’élabore depuis l’ouverture économique du pays par les populations selon un double processus d’urbanisation « par le haut », et « par le bas », de façon endogène dans les villages urbains. Ce processus créé les conditions d’un enchevêtrement territorial de quartiers aux fonctions et catégories sociales disparates.Pour étudier ce processus, cet article s’intéresse aux acteurs informels de la gestion des déchets recyclables, à leurs pratiques, leurs tactiques pour accéder aux ressources urbaines et pour s’installer au cœur d’une ville en pleine métropolisation. Il fait l’hypothèse que l’efficacité du système de collecte et de recyclage des déchets à Hà Nôi est fondée sur la transposition du système de production territorialisé villageois intensif et pluri-actif jusqu’au cœur de la ville.
Method validation and antioxidant activities of Hyperacanthus amoenus and Carissa bispinosa
Authors: Kgosana Kedibone G. , Matlala Tirelo 
Published: December 2024

Plant foliages used as feed additives pose a health risk due to high oxidant concentrations. Oxidants cause oxidative stress and high rate of morbidities and mortalities. Hence, the aim of the study was to validate the methods to quantify gallic acid (GA) and quercetin (Q) as putative antioxidants, and to evaluate antioxidant activities in feed (F), Hyperacanthus amoenus (HA) and Carissa bispinosa (CB) extracts. Extraction was carried out with 62.5% methanol. Method validations for linearity, accuracy and precision were performed on high performance liquid chromatography. Quantitative analysis of GA and Q and testing of 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activities in the extracts were performed. The lowest limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.011 µg/mL and 0.032 µg/mL were determined in HA, respectively. The methods were accurate and precise as the relative standard deviations (%RSD) were less than 15%. The GA concentrations in CB and HA extracts were statistically significant (p 0.05) and their values were 0.65 ± 0.03 x 106 µg/kg dry weight (DW) (0.13%) and 0.28 ± 0.06 x 106 µg/kg DW (0.002%), respectively. All extracts showed very strong radical scavenging activities with their IC50 values ranging between 5.87 µg/mL and 6.86 µg/mL.Contribution: These accurate, repeatable, precise and reliable methods can be used to provide a valuable basis for GA and Q analysis in various shrub foliages. Though high GA concentrations have potential to act as antioxidants, they may have adverse health and growth performance effects when used as feed additives, while lower Q concentrations may have no effects on livestock.
Aggressive epithelioid osteoblastoma of calvarial bone in an elderly male
Authors: Prachi  , Aiyer Hema Malini , Sharma Gaurav 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT
Osteoblastoma (OB) is a rare bony neoplasm comprising <1% of all the primary bone tumours. Presumably, OB involves the long bones and vertebrae with calvarium being the least common site. Aggressive OB is an intermediate form between an indolent conventional OB and malignant osteosarcoma and carries some subtle histopathological markers that need to be specifically looked for. Hereby, we report a case of an aggressive epithelioid OB in a 73-year-old male patient having non-specific symptoms and was undiagnosed on radiological investigation. Hence, the histopathological and immunohistochemical findings were mandatory to come to a definitive diagnosis.
Spectrum of pathologies observed in endometrial biopsies of cases with abnormal uterine bleeding – A retrospective study
Authors: Kumar Vani Ravi , Kruthi B. R. , Kumar H. N. Ravi , Ramchandran Shibani , Jatale Raj 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the most common presenting symptoms in women of all age groups in outpatient departments. It is caused by various endometrial pathologies and histopathological evaluation of endometrial biopsy helps in identifying them.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to determine various histopathological patterns of the endometrium in women presenting with AUB and to estimate the incidence of various pathologies in different age groups in our study population.

Materials and Methods:
It was a retrospective study of endometrial biopsies done for AUB, received at Metropolis Healthcare Limited, from 2018 to 2023. A total of 23,155 specimens consistent with the inclusion criteria were considered for the study.

Results:
The most common age group presenting with AUB was 26–40 years (54.91%). The majority of the samples were obtained from patients who presented with complaints of menorrhagia. The most common normal cyclic endometrial pattern that was observed is secretory phase endometrium (22.15%). The most common abnormal endometrial pattern was endometrial polyp (17.56%). About 586 cases (2.53%) were malignant and 5965 cases (hyperplasia with and without atypia) were presented with pre-malignant status.

Conclusion:
In our study, the majority of cases were benign hormone-related and endometrial polyps were the most common pathology in reproductive age women, perimenopausal and the post-menopausal women, respectively. Endometrial sampling is recommended in all cases presenting with AUB, particularly in peri- and post-menopausal women due to the focal nature of atypia in polyps and hyperplasia.

Authors: Chaudhary Kanika , Kumar Sanjay , Gupta Nupur , Kant Rama , Khaki Shikha 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Acute haemorrhagic leucoencephalitis (AHLE) is an uncommon and fulminant demyelinating disease of the brain, resulting in focal neurological deficits. Here, we present a case of AHLE of unknown cause, having typical features and haemorrhagic lesions in white matter in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain. A 34-year-old male presented with headache, high-grade fever and weakness of the left upper and lower limb. Despite treatment, his neurological condition improved slightly. We noticed a unique finding of conversion of the unilateral lesions to bilateral lesions on an MRI brain study. Thus, early recognition and appropriate management can facilitate better neurological improvement and survival.

Authors: Jaju TA , Parmar UI , Gajbhiye SV , Kurle DG , Shah RM 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Pharmacology is one of the most dynamic and evolving branches, not only in the concepts but also in teaching methodologies. Many attempts have been made by various colleges all over the world to make the teaching of pharmacology more interesting and relevant.

Materials and Methods:
The literature from two databases (Google Scholar and PubMed) published between 2005 and 2020 were searched using terms related to “Teaching Techniques” AND “Pharmacology.” The articles with unavailable full-text those published in conference proceedings, duplicate studies, and articles published in languages apart from English were excluded. Teaching techniques were compared using success and popularity ratios, which were calculated on the basis of student’s test score and their feedback with an average minimum score of 50%, which was considered the benchmark.

Results:
Out of the 1,093 articles reviewed, only 95 studies met the inclusion criteria. The majority of the studies were conducted among medical (64.21%) and pharmacy (28.42%) students. Most common teaching techniques belonged to computer and case-based (21.05% each) types followed by multiple techniques (11.58%) types. Flipped, case-based, multiple methods, modules, and other innovative methods have been well received by students with a popularity ratio ranging between 100 and 81, and improvement in students’ test scores further demonstrated their utility with a success ratio between 100 and 88. The effectiveness and popularity of computer-based techniques and student-centered techniques were found to be moderate (73 and 71). Although popular, team-based techniques and simulations seemed to be less effective in improving test scores (50 and 33, respectively).

Conclusion:
There is a need for periodic up-gradation in techniques utilized for teaching pharmacology. Every teaching technique has its strengths and weaknesses. They need to be utilized as per the student’s requirement.
Left regular representations of Garside categories II. Finiteness properties of topological full groups

and many groups of dynamical origin such as Röver–Nekrashevych groups. Our key observation is that a Garside structure for the underlying small category induces a new Garside structure for a new small category of bisections, and that our topological full group coincides with the fundamental group of the enveloping groupoid of the new category. As a consequence, we solve the word problem and identify general criteria for establishing finiteness properties of our topological full groups. In particular, we show that topological full groups arising from products of shifts of finite type are of type

Gender differences in disclosure among tuberculosis (TB) and human immune-deficiency virus (HIV) patients reporting in some health facilities in the Greater Accra region of Ghana
Authors: Benedicta Taylor-Abdulai Hannah , Akweongo Patricia , Baba  Adongo Philip 
Published: December 2024

The study explored the gender differences that exist in patterns and effects of disclosure among TB only and TB co-infected with HIV patients receiving TB treatment in some selected health facilities in the Greater Accra region and how these disclosure patterns for men and women affect the support they receive from family and friends as they circumvent the treatment processes. The study design was cross-sectional and qualitative using deductive reasoning design and conducted in six health facilities in the Greater Accra region of Ghana. A total of 30 participants were involved in the study. They were made up of 12 TB only participants, 12 co-infected TB/HIV patients, and 6 TB coordinators. Face-to-face interviews were used to elicit responses from participants and results recorded, using a digital recorder, after which verbatim transcription was done, and contents analysis used in analyzing the data. The study found that revealing one’s TB and/or HIV status was problematic for married women. The men were more comfortable disclosing their status to their partners, whilst the women felt more comfortable disclosing their status to other family members other than their partners. In terms of support, some men indicated that their partners abandoned them when they lost their source of income because of their health conditions, making it difficult to manage their conditions. The women, however, received support from their external family members. The study has implications for public health since non-disclosure could lead to further spread among close family and friends because both HIV and TB are contagious diseases.
Strong absorption and the double folding potential using B3Y-fetal interaction
Authors: Abenga Raymond C. , Ibrahim Yahay Y. , Adamu Idriss D. , Ibrahim Kassim L. Ibrahim 
Published: December 2024

This work examines the effects of strong absorption arising from nuclear potentials which are crucial to the understanding of the problem of nuclear interactions in other nonelastic channels. The double folding model was used to derive both the real and imaginary part of the nuclear optical potential using a mass-dependent B3Y-Fetal effective interaction constructed using the lowest order constrained variational (LOCV) approach. The absorption effect was incorporated in the calculations through the imaginary part of the optical potential. The folded potentials were found to be attractive and short-ranged over short internuclear distances of about 0 ≤ r ≤ 6 fm The results of the plots of the S-matrix elements and those of the differential cross-sections of deuteron scattering from 24/12Mg were obtained. It was observed from the plots of the S-matrix elements that regions for which |SL|~0 existed between 0 ≤ L ≤ 5 within the incident energies of 60 -80 MeV, implying strong absorption at these small impact parameters. Pronounced success was also achieved in the fit of the differential cross-sections of d + 24/12 Mg within the energy range of 60 to 170 MeV.
Roman Lead Finds from Troesmis (Turcoaia, Tulcea County, Romania) and Its Surroundings – an Investigation Based on Lead Isotopes and Trace Element Analyses
Authors: Alexandrescu Cristina-Georgeta , Bode Michael 
Published: December 2024

Lead samples and one leaded bronze sample from five identifiable objects (e.g. large-scale bronze statues, lead pipes) and three lead chunks from the area of the ancient center of Troesmis, in the Moesia Inferior province, have been investigated by elemental and lead isotope analyses. Among the analyzed samples, four are dated into the 2nd-3rd centuries AD and were found in the civil settlement near the fortress of the legio V Macedonica and the municipium of Troesmis, while one was uncovered in a rural settlement in the surroundings of this ancient center, at Horia, in a context dated to the 2nd century AD. A fifth object of study is a fragmented lead pipe from a private collection in Bucharest, from Carnuntum, according to the seller, but bearing a maker stamp that relates it to Rome. Furthermore, three lead chunks, presumably used to hang on wall objects like the bronze plates with the lex of the municipium, have also been analyzed. The provenance investigations of the nine Troesmis finds point to two different lead sources in the Roman Empire, the Central Balkans (Serbia/Kosovo) and the Cévennes (Massif Central) in France, while the lead source for the pipe fragment in Bucharest might be Yorkshire in Great Britain.

Published: December 2024

One of the ways to improve functional outcomes in patients with ruptured cerebral aneurysms is preventive decompressive craniectomy (DC). Such tactics have not been studied during pregnancy.Case report. A 34-year-old female patient, who was 10 weeks pregnant, was hospitalized for an acute headache. According to imaging methods, rupture of the aneurysm of the right internal carotid artery (ICA), subarachnoid parenchymal subdural hemorrhage, pronounced widespread arteriospasm were diagnosed. Consent to surgical treatment with the condition of prolongation of pregnancy was obtained only on the 4th day of the disease against the background of an increase in the volume of subdural hematoma and displacement of median structures. DC was performed and the aneurysm was clipped. The course of the postoperative period was favorable. At 40 weeks of pregnancy, a cesarean section delivery was performed, the child is healthy. Subsequently, cranioplasty of the skull bone defect was performed.Discussion. The first case of successful treatment of a patient with a ruptured ICA aneurysm in the first trimester of pregnancy using DC is presented. The treatment of pregnant women with ruptured cerebral aneurysms in the first trimester of pregnancy presents significant difficulties in medical, moral, ethical and legal terms. A multidisciplinary approach, a balanced assessment of the severity of the disease and pregnancy, individual risks of surgery and potential complications, the volume of diagnostic procedures and intensive care measures performed, make it possible to preserve the life and health of the mother and fetus.

In large internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms, the angle of the mandible becomes an anatomical obstacle to creating an adequate access. Widening the access can be achieved by performing a mandibular osteotomy.Case report. A 70-year-old female patient was admitted to hospital with complaints of hoarseness of voice, dyspnoea and congestion of the right ear. Objective examination revealed nasal respiratory distress due to nasopharyngeal compression by a voluminous mass, mild dysarthria, dysphonia, tongue deviation to the right, paresis of the right soft palate and right vocal cord. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a 50×49×60 mm thrombosed ICA aneurysm in the carotid space. Surgical management was performed by a multidisciplinary team including neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists and maxillofacial surgeons. Extended access was achieved by intraoral mandibular osteotomy followed by mobilization. Early postoperative resolution of neurological symptoms was observed.Discussion. To gain access to giant aneurysms of the cervical branch of the ICA, it is possible to use the technique of intraoral osteotomy of the mandible. This reduces trauma and the risk of complications, while increasing the radicality of the main stage.
Critical Role of Public Relations and Organizational Change in Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): A Case of Architectural, Engineering, and Construction Industry
Authors: Shaya Mohammed Faris S. , Ahmad Jamilah Hj. 
Published: December 2024

Purpose: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as a global blueprint for addressing complex environmental, social, and economic challenges. While these goals apply across industries, their integration within the Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector is crucial given the industry's substantial environmental impact, resource consumption, and influence on urban and community development. This study explores the critical roles of public relations (PR) and organizational change in facilitating the AEC sector’s alignment with the SDGs. Effective acceptance of organizational change has become crucial for architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) organizations to maintain a competitive edge in the current dynamic market. Organizations with superior skills in managing organizational change can establish themselves as pioneers and require fewer resources to navigate the transformation.

Methodology: This qualitative study focused on PR practitioners employed by Saudi Telecommunications Company as the primary analysis subjects. Data were collected from STC branch-affiliated public relations directors and practitioners via in-depth semi-structured interviews.

Results and Discussion: The findings revealed seven distinct outcomes of PR practice. This study generated results that coincided with the literature on PR strategies. These findings described the consequences (crisis management, productivity, connection building, employee engagement, and establishing a healthy environment) arising from PR initiatives to foster and advance organizational transformation.

Research Implication: This study integrated the relationship management theory and Lewin’s change management theory. Thus, the findings presented significant potential for advancing understanding of how businesses can proficiently navigate change processes while fostering favorable stakeholder connections.

Originality/value: This study developed a framework to address employee resistance to organizational changes effectively.
