Petite géographie gourmande de Gérard de Nerval dans son Voyage en Orient
Authors: Bonnet Henri 
Published: January 2020

Il est possible de suivre les traces du voyageur Nerval d’après ses souvenirs gourmands, réels ou fictifs. Son itinéraire de 1843 « vers l’Orient » est publié en 1851 en trois parties, Égypte, Syrie, Constantinople. Il est coiffé en « Introduction » par les textes du « voyage d’hiver » qui l’a amené, via la Suisse et la Bavière, à séjourner à Vienne en 1839-1840. Ne peut-on pas aller jusqu’à deviner, dans les données de la double trajectoire, la quête d’une sorte de Graal gourmand ? Plus modestement, c’est, par-delà les Cyclades, à la fortune du pot, que se font découvertes et déceptions, avec leur débouché final sur l’apologue des raisins. On y aboutira par la prise en compte du « style gastronomique » dont parle Barthes à propos de Brillat-Savarin, comme on aura abouti précédemment à la quintessence de la réception orientale, faite de simplicité et de raffinement.
Comparison of the Efficacy Between Intravitreal Aflibercept and Laser Photocoagulation in the Treatment of Retinopathy of Prematurity
Authors: Ekinci Dilbade Yildiz , Çelik Kiymet 
Published: January 2020

Purpose:
To compare the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept and laser photocoagulation in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).

Methods:
The files of patients who were diagnosed as having type 1 ROP or aggressive posterior ROP (APROP) and treated with laser photocoagulation and 1 mg/0.025 mL of intravitreal aflibercept were retrospectively analyzed. The patients' birth weight, gestational age, detection week of the disease, zone, stage, presence of plus disease and rubeosis, regression of ROP, re-treatments administered during the follow-up, and spherical equivalent values obtained at the corrected sixth month were recorded.

Results:

The study included 27 eyes of 15 patients who underwent laser photocoagulation and 24 eyes of 12 patients who received intravitreal aflibercept. Retinal vascularization was in zone II in all eyes in the laser photocoagulation group and zone 1 in 22 eyes (91.7%) in the intravitreal aflibercept group (
P
< .05). In the laser photocoagulation group, 25 eyes (92.6%) had stage 3 ROP and 2 eyes (7.4%) had stage 2 ROP. In the intravitreal aflibercept group, 14 eyes (58.3%) had stage 3 ROP and 10 eyes (41.7%) had APROP (
P
< .05). Treatment was established at a postmenstrual age of 37.6 ± 2.5 weeks in the laser photocoagulation group and 34.2 ± 2.4 weeks in the intravitreal aflibercept group (
P
< .05). The regression rates after treatment were 92.6% and 100%, respectively (
P
> .05). In the intravitreal aflibercept group, laser photocoagulation was performed on 10 eyes (41.6%) during follow-up visits. Spherical equivalents were measured as +1.10 ± 2.30 and +1.50 ± 2.41 diopters, respectively (
P
< .05) at the corrected sixth month.

Conclusions:
Intravitreal aflibercept is an effective treatment for ROP. However, it requires more additional treatments than laser photocoagulation during the follow-up visits.

Amblyopia Risk Factors in Newborns With Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction
Authors: Vagge Aldo , Tulumello Claudia , Pellegrini Marco , Di Maita Marco , Iester Michele , Traverso Carlo Enrico 
Published: January 2020

Purpose:
To investigate the presence of amblyopia risk factors in newborns with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) and age-matched healthy control subjects.

Methods:
This retrospective case-control study involved newborns aged 30 to 60 days with CNLDO and age-matched healthy control subjects. Amblyopia risk factors were identified in accordance with the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus Vision Screening Committee recommendations. The prevalence of amblyopia risk factors was compared in newborns with CNLDO and age-matched healthy control subjects, newborns with unilateral and bilateral CNLDO, and the affected eye and fellow eye of newborns with unilateral CNLDO.

Results:

Amblyopia risk factors were found in 18 patients (11.9%) with CNLDO and 19 control subjects (8.7%) (
P
= .314). Eyes with CNLDO showed a significantly lower spherical equivalent compared to control eyes (2.01 ± 1.21 vs 2.79 ± 1.14 diopters,
P
< .001). No difference in amblyopia risk factors was found in eyes with unilateral and bilateral CNLDO (11.5% vs 12.1%;
P
= .908) or in eyes with unilateral CNLDO and fellow eyes (9.8% vs 12.3%;
P
= .540).

Conclusions:
CNLDO does not seem to be associated with amblyopia risk factors in newborns. Because anisometropia might develop later on, all patients with CNLDO should be monitored for amblyopia.

Outcome of Primary Probing for Simple Membraneous Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction in Children Older Than 4 Years
Authors: Reynolds Margaret , Lueder Gregg 
Published: January 2020

Purpose:
To report outcomes of nasolacrimal duct (NLD) probing in children 4 years and older with simple membranous NLD obstruction.

Methods:
The records of all patients 4 years and older with congenital NLD obstruction who underwent surgery from 1997 to 2015 at Washington University School of Medicine were retrospectively reviewed. Of 47 patients reviewed, 18 (38.3%) were found to have simple membranous obstructions and were included in this study. Simple membranous obstruction was present at the distal duct and was relieved with passage of the probes in all patients. Children with canalicular or diffuse distal NLD stenosis (as defined by a tight, gritty feeling or multiple obstructions when passing the probe through the bony portion of the NLD), trisomy 21, lacrimal trauma, or craniofacial abnormalities were excluded. A successful outcome was determined by resolution of epiphora and periocular crusting.

Results:
Eighteen patients with ages ranging from 4.1 to 10.6 years with simple membranous NLD obstruction were treated. Sixteen of 18 (88.9%) patients had good outcomes following NLD probing. Two patients had persistent symptoms that resolved following balloon dilation and stent placement.

Conclusions:
This study found that the success rate of probing in older patients with simple membranous NLD obstruction was comparable to that of younger patients. NLD probing alone is a good treatment option for older children with simple membranous NLD obstruction. Additional procedures such as balloon catheter dilation or stent placement may not be necessary at the time of initial probing.

Inflammatory Cytokines Induce Sustained CTLA-4 Cell Surface Expression on Human MAIT Cells

Published: January 2020

Abstract
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells acquire effector function in response to proinflammatory signals, which synergize with TCR-mediated signals. We asked if cell-intrinsic regulatory mechanisms exist to curtail MAIT cell effector function akin to the activation-induced expression of inhibitory receptors by conventional T cells. We examined human MAIT cells from blood and oral mucosal tissues by RNA sequencing and found differential expression of immunoregulatory genes, including CTLA-4, by MAIT cells isolated from tissue. Using an ex vivo experimental setup, we demonstrate that inflammatory cytokines were sufficient to induce CTLA-4 expression on the MAIT cell surface in the absence of TCR signals. Even brief exposure to the cytokines IL-12, IL-15, and IL-18 was sufficient for sustained CTLA-4 expression by MAIT cells. These data suggest that control of CTLA-4 expression is fundamentally different between MAIT cells and conventional T cells. We propose that this mechanism serves to limit MAIT cell–mediated tissue damage.

Introduction
Authors: Neumann David J. 
Published: January 2020

This book explores Paramahansa Yogananda’s ministry as an Indian, an American, and the founder of a global religious organization. As a figure often associated with the origins of yoga in the United States, he has been curiously neglected in the scholarly literature. Yogananda’s ministry was fueled by a religious nationalism that led him to conclude that Hinduism could uniquely fill the spiritual void in “the West.” Rejecting both exclusivism and pluralism, he embraced an inclusivism that viewed Hinduism as the ultimate expression of truth. He illuminates the nature of religious entrepreneurialism as he invented a variety of products to keep his ministry financially viable. His ministry reveals how missionary Hinduism’s success hinged on a deep understanding of Christian belief and practice; apart from his famed Autobiography, Yogananda’s longest text was a commentary on the New Testament Gospels, which explained how Jesus was a yogi. Yogananda’s life story demonstrates the connectedness of spirituality and place. He began to gain traction in his ministry only after he found Southern California. Yogananda “reenchanted” the modern world through his instruction and his claims to divine authority.
Distinct diurnal variation in organic aerosol hygroscopicity and its relationship with oxygenated organic aerosol

Abstract. The hygroscopicity of organic aerosol (OA) is important for investigation
of its climatic and environmental impacts. However, the hygroscopicity
parameter κOA remains poorly characterized, especially in the
relatively polluted environment on the North China Plain (NCP). Here we
conducted simultaneous wintertime measurements of bulk aerosol chemical
compositions of PM2.5 and PM1 and bulk aerosol hygroscopicity of
PM10 and PM1 on the NCP using a capture-vaporizer time-of-flight
aerosol chemical speciation monitor (CV-ToF-ACSM) and a humidified
nephelometer system which measures the aerosol light-scattering enhancement
factor f(RH). A method for calculating κOA based on f(RH) and bulk aerosol chemical-composition measurements was developed. We found that κOA varied
in a wide range with significant diurnal variations. The derived κOA ranged from almost 0.0 to 0.25, with an average (±1σ)
of 0.08 (±0.06) for the entire study. The derived κOA was
highly correlated with f44 (fraction of m∕z 44 in OA measured by
CV-ToF-ACSM), an indicator of the oxidation degree of OA (R=0.79), and the
relationship can be parameterized as κOA=1.04×f44-0.02 (κOA=0.3×O:C-0.02, based on the relationship
between the f44 and O∕C ratio for CV-ToF-ACSM). On average, κOA
reached the minimum (0.02) in the morning near 07:30 local time (LT) and then increased
rapidly, reaching the peak value of 0.16 near 14:30 LT. The diurnal variations
in κOA were highly and positively correlated with those of mass
fractions of oxygenated OA (R=0.95), indicating that photochemical
processing played a dominant role in the increase in κOA in
winter on the NCP. Results in this study demonstrate the potential wide
applications of a humidified nephelometer system together with aerosol
composition measurements for investigating the hygroscopicity of OA in
various environments and highlight that the parameterization of κOA as a function of OA aging processes needs to be considered in
chemical transport models for better evaluating the impacts of OA on cloud
formation, atmospheric chemistry, and radiative forcing.
Impact of local gravity wave forcing in the lower stratosphere on the polar vortex stability: effect of longitudinal displacement
Authors: Samtleben Nadja , Kuchař Aleš , Šácha Petr , Pišoft Petr , Jacobi Christoph 
Published: January 2020

Abstract. The effects of gravity wave (GW) breaking hotspots in the lower stratosphere, especially the role of their longitudinal distribution, are evaluated through a sensitivity study by using a simplified middle atmosphere circulation model.
For the position of the local GW hotspot, we first selected a fixed latitude range between 37.5 and 62.5∘ N and a longitude range from 112.5 to 168.75∘ E, as well as an altitude range between 18 and 30 km.
This confined GW hotspot was then shifted in longitude by 45∘ steps, so that we created eight artificial GW hotspots in total.
Strongly dependent on the location of the respective GW hotspot with regard to the phase of the stationary planetary wave of wavenumber 1 (SPW 1) generated in the model, the local GW forcing may interfere constructively or destructively with the modeled SPW 1.
GW hotspots, which are located in North America near the Rocky Mountains, lead to an increase in the SPW 1 amplitude and EP flux, while hotspots located near the Caucasus, the Himalayas or the Scandinavian region lead to a decrease in these parameters.
Thus, the polar vortex is less (Caucasus and Himalayan hotspots) or more weakened (Rocky Mountains hotspot) by the prevailing SPW activity.
Because the local GW forcing generally suppresses wave propagation at midlatitudes, the SPWs 1 propagate into the polar region, where the refractive index turned to positive values for the majority of the artificial GW hotspots.
An additional source of SPW 1 may be local instabilities indicated by the reversal in the meridional potential vorticity gradient in the polar region in connection with a positive EP divergence.
In most cases, the SPWs 1 are breaking in the polar region and maintain the deceleration and, thus, the weakening of the polar vortex.
While the SPWs 1 that form when the GW hotspots are located above North America propagate through the polar region into the middle atmosphere, the SPWs 1 in the remaining GW hotspot simulations were not able to propagate further upwards because of a negative refractive index above the positive refractive index anomaly in the polar region.
GW hotspots, which are located near the Himalayas, influence the mesosphere–lower thermosphere region because of possible local instabilities in the lower mesosphere generating additional SPWs 1, which propagate upwards into the mesosphere.
International Commercial Courts in France: Innovation without Revolution?

International Commercial Courts in France: Innovation without Revolution?
In 2018, in the wake of Brexit, the French legal profession took several important measures to strengthen the competitiveness of France and the French legal system, and to make Paris an attractive go-to-point for businesses when the latter have to deal with international commercial litigation. When taking a closer look at it, Brexit is only the top of the iceberg, and has mostly served as a catalyst. Reasons explaining the development of international commercial courts in France are manifold. They are consequences of long-standing efforts aimed at boosting the French judicial marketplace to adapt it to the requirements of globalization and to the expectations of multinational corporations. The setting-up of the French international business courts has made several procedural adjustments necessary. Although the latter undoubtedly represent clear innovations, they however do not constitute a full-blown revolution. France has indeed decided to maximize already-existing procedural rules, combined with a new organisational format inspired by the Common Law tradition. If it remains too early to draw clear conclusions on the impact of these new developments, it is essential to keep our ears to the ground, and to be forward-looking. We should carefully consider the possible side-effects on the French justice system considered as a whole, and in particular wonder whether these international commercial courts might in the future open the door to broader far-reaching evolutions within the judicial system. Finally, the multiplication of international business courts across Europe nowadays triggers some questions concerning the role and potential added value of an EU initiative in this domain.
The Guerrilla Legacy of the Cuban Revolution
Authors: Clayfield Anna 
Published: January 2020

The Guerrilla Legacy of the Cuban Revolution examines the way in which the guerrilla origins of the Cuban Revolution have shaped the beliefs and values that have underpinned it since 1959. It argues that these beliefs and values comprise a political culture in which the figure of the guerrillero (guerrilla fighter) is revered and the past struggles are presented in the revolutionary historical narrative as both unfinished and guerrilla in their nature. Drawing on extensive analysis of official discourse across six decades, the book outlines a consistent, conscious promotion of a guerrilla ethos throughout the Revolution’s trajectory. On the one hand, it demonstrates how this promotion has contributed to garnering legitimacy for the decades-long political authority of former guerrilleros, even long after the end of the armed struggle that brought them to power. On the other hand, it reveals how, as part of the Revolution’s many mobilization drives since 1959, Cuban citizens have been encouraged to emulate the attributes embodied by guerrilleros heroicos such as Che Guevara and Antonio Maceo. Ultimately, the book proposes that it is this guerrilla discourse that holds the key to understanding not only the survival of the Revolution but also the longevity of its leadership.
Transnational American Studies
Authors: Fishkin Shelley Fisher 
Published: January 2020

This essay limns what American Studies scholars lose by ignoring work published outside the US or published in languages other than English. It then explores two current examples of transnational, interdisciplinary, collaborative research that cross national, disciplinary, linguistic and cultural borders. “Global Huck: A Digital Palimpsest Mapping Project, or Deep Map (DPMP)” centers on the question of how literature travels globally, taking the travels of Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn as the subject of its study. The essay outlines insights to be gained from looking at the novel’s travels in China, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, and Portugal. The Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford focuses on the Chinese workers who built America’s first transcontinental railroad. It brings together work by scholars in history, literature, anthropology, American Studies and archaeology in the US and Asia to generate insights into a venture that shaped the world on both sides of the Pacific. Both ventures would not have been possible before the era of digitization.
Oceania as Peril and Promise
Authors: Wilson Rob 
Published: January 2020

The ocean as a space of planetary interconnection remains riddled with antagonisms of political territorial, and commercial conflict. At the same time, the ocean, figured as a planetary element necessary to sustaining life and earthly well-being, could become a means to envision ecological solidarity and worlding concern across the Pacific. To do so, the ocean needs to be re-framed in terms that elicit consent and inspire an imagination of co-belonging, mutual interest, and ecopoetic care. The ocean could come to signify a bioregional site of coalitional promise as much as a geopolitical danger zone of antagonistic peril: poets and cultural workers affiliated to the remaking of the Pacific into Oceania can help us forge this transnational ecological vision.
The State of the Job Market for Pathologists: Evidence From the College of American Pathologists Practice Leader Survey
Authors: Gross David J. , Black-Schaffer W. Stephen , Hoffman Robert D. , Karcher Donald S. , Estrada Edith Lopez , Robboy Stanley J. , Cohen Michael B. 
Published: January 2020

Context.—
Disagreement exists within the pathology community about the status of the job market for pathologists. Although many agree that jobs in pathology were harder to come by earlier this decade, recent evidence suggests improvement is occurring.

Objective.—
To assess the state of the job market for pathologists.

Design.—
We analyzed data from the 2018 College of American Pathologists Practice Leader Survey. This survey contains data from 253 practice leaders on practices' hiring (and retrenchments) in 2017, the skills and level of experience being sought, success in filling those positions, and expectations for hiring in the next 3 years.

Results.—
Among the surveyed practice leaders, 115 (45.5%) sought to hire at least 1 pathologist in 2017, and together tried to fill 246 full-time equivalent positions that year, of which 93.5 full-time equivalents (38%) were newly created. This hiring was not limited to larger, academic-based practices, but also occurred among smaller practices and practices based in nonacademic hospitals, independent laboratories, and other settings. Although some practices retrenched (60 full-time equivalents in 2017), the net increase was a healthy 187 full-time equivalents. Practices most frequently sought pathologists who had at least 2 years of experience, but the level of experience identified with the “optimal” candidate varied by desired areas of subspecialty expertise. Practice leaders also reported expected growth in hiring, with the number of positions they hope to fill in the next 3 years exceeding those vacated by retirement.

Conclusions.—
Our findings support the proposition that the demand for pathologists is strong, at least at the current time.
The Middle East in Music History: An Ethnomusicological Perspective
Authors: Stokes Martin 
Published: January 2020

A glance at the ethnomusicology of the Muslim-majority Middle East might suggest it is peculiarly exposed to historiographical problems now familiar thanks to decades of orientalism critique. Namely, that music is understood in this part of the world via a peculiarly objectivising colonial ethnography, that it is understood in ways that deny its historical circumstances, and that it is subject to a relentless aestheticisation, which is to say, treated in analogous way to the Islamic art objects and miniatures ripped out of context and put on display in the museums of the western metropolis. The history of ethnomusicology suggests a long line of exceptions to this ‘rule’. The chapter explores the work of Villoteau, Lachmann and more recent work in and around sound archives asking to what extent we might see this work prefiguring recognisably modern and critical dispositions towards ethnography.
