NEWSPAPER FRAMING OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CRIMES COMMISSION UNDER PRESIDENT MUHAMMADUBUHARI’S ADMINISTRATION
Authors: Oluwadamilare Ikusemiju Ayokunle , Ekwueme Anthony 
Published: October 2020

Objectives of the Study: The purpose of this study was to examine newspaper framing of the activities of the EFCC under President Buhari, using four purposively selected newspapers. In doing this, the researchers focused on the prevalence of frames, most prominent frames, and interpretations they gave to the activities of EFCC.
Methodology: Content analysis and critical discourse analysis were adopted as the research methods. By means of the constructed week sampling technique, 288 editions of the selected newspapers years were studied.
Results: It was found that six (6) frames constituted 75% frame prevalence rate, while two (2) frames constituted 15% non-prevalence rate. The corruption-combating/criminalisation frame was the most prominent. Interpretation of the reports revealed that some newspapers presented EFCC as victimisers, while some appraised its activities at mitigating graft in Nigeria.
Application/implications: The implication of these results is that journalists need to improve in their framing anti-corruption efforts as part of their social responsibility to the Nigerian society.
Originality/ Novelty: This study has contributed to our understanding of the role of the media in promoting good governance and accountability in a developing country like Nigeria.

Les alliances stratÃ©giques sont caractÃ©risÃ©es par la simultanÃ©itÃ© de la coopÃ©ration et de la concurrence. Ce phÃ©nomÃ¨ne a Ã©tÃ© popularisÃ© sous la notion de co-opÃ©tition. Le prÃ©sent article sâ€™intÃ©resse Ã lâ€™Ã©tude de lâ€™impact des stratÃ©gies de co-opÃ©tition sur la performance export des PME. Les donnÃ©es collectÃ©es par questionnaire auprÃ¨s dâ€™un Ã©chantillon de 150 PME marocaines exportatrices ont fait lâ€™objet dâ€™une analyse par les Ã©quations structurelles selon lâ€™approche PLS. Les rÃ©sultats montrent que la confiance intervient comme modÃ©rateur de la relation de coopÃ©ration entre concurrents. Ces derniers dÃ©veloppent leur comportement concurrentiel pour atteindre leurs objectifs Ã lâ€™export dâ€™autant plus que la coopÃ©ration existe et un climat de confiance sâ€™instaure.
Strategic alliances are characterized by the simultaneity of cooperation and competition. This phenomenon was popularized under the notion of coopetition. This article focuses on the study of the impact of co-opetition strategies on the export performance of SMEs. The data collected by questionnaire from a sample of 150 Moroccan exporting SMEs were analyzed by structural equations according to the PLS approach. The results show that trust acts as a moderator of the cooperative relationship between competitors. The latter develop their competitive behavior to achieve their export objectives, especially as there is cooperation and a climate of trust is established.

Lianas, this important component of tropical forest flora are mostly neglected in several studies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the floristic diversity of these plants in four types of land use (Teak, Shinglewoodblack Afara association, hevea, Fallows) in BouaflÃ© Classified Forest. Lianas at 1 cm DBH were inventoried in sampling blocks of 1 hectare (100 m x 100 m) divided in eight elementary blocks of 25 m x 20. Results showed that 522 lianas included in 45 species, 39 genera and 20 families were recorded. In addition, Fallows and Shinglewood-black Afara association were the richest and most diversified in lianas while Teak and Hevea plantations were the poorest and less diversified. Regarding the Family Importance Value, the most important families were Passifloraceae (VIF = 63,97), Fabaceae (VIF = 52,08), Caesalpiniaceae (VIF = 39,25) and Combretaceae (VIF = 27,90). According to Importance value Index (IVI), Adenia lobata (IVI = 50,33), Combretum zenckeri (IVI = 27,15) and Acacia pennata (IVI = 28,41) were the most represented species in all type of land use. Furthermore, the distribution in diameter classes showed a stable population of lianas. This study showed that multispecifical reforestation plans are preferable to that of single species.
Les lianes, une des composantes importantes de la flore des forÃªts tropicales sont bien souvent nÃ©gligÃ©es dans des travaux dâ€™Ã©tude floristique. La diversitÃ© de ces plantes dans quatre types dâ€™occupation du sol (TOS) de la forÃªt classÃ©e de BouaflÃ© a Ã©tÃ© Ã©tudiÃ©e. Il sâ€™agit de trois types de reboisement (Teck, association FrakÃ©-FramirÃ©, hÃ©vÃ©a) et des jachÃ¨res. Les inventaires floristiques utilisant la mÃ©thode de surface ont Ã©tÃ© rÃ©alisÃ©s dans des parcelles dâ€™un hectare (100 m x 100 m). Ainsi, 522 individus de 45 espÃ¨ces de lianes appartenant Ã 39 genres et 20 familles ont Ã©tÃ© inventoriÃ©s. Les TOS jachÃ¨res et plantations de FrakÃ©-FramirÃ© ont Ã©tÃ© les plus riches et diversifiÃ©es en lianes tandis que ceux de Teck et dâ€™hÃ©vÃ©a ont Ã©tÃ© les plus pauvres et moins diversifiÃ©es. Dans lâ€™ensemble des TOS, les familles les plus importantes ont Ã©tÃ© les Passifloraceae (VIF = 63,97), les Fabaceae (VIF = 52,08), les Caesalpiniaceae (VIF = 39,25) et les Combretaceae (VIF = 27,90). Adenia lobata (IVI = 50,33), Acacia pennata (IVI = 28,41) et Combretum zenkeri (IVI = 27,15) ont Ã©tÃ© les espÃ¨ces les plus importantes. Lâ€™analyse de la structure diamÃ©trique a montrÃ© une population stable de lianes. Cette Ã©tude a montrÃ© que, pour une reconstitution efficiente du couvert vÃ©gÃ©tal, les reboisements plurispÃ©cifiques sont prÃ©fÃ©rables aux reboisements monospÃ©cifiques.
Etudes RÃ©trospectives Des Facteurs Individuels Et Contextuels Sur La Variation De La MortalitÃ© Des Enfants De Moins De 5 Ans Durant lâ€™AnnÃ©e 2018 En GuinÃ©e

La forte mortalitÃ© infanto-juvÃ©nile est prÃ©occupante. Le Sommet mondial pour les enfants (1990) ciblait de rÃ©duire de 1/3 son niveau de 1990 Ã 2000. De mÃªme, les Objectifs de DÃ©veloppement Durable, visaient quant Ã eux, un niveau de 25â€° au plus dâ€™ici 2030. En GuinÃ©e, cette mortalitÃ© infantojuvÃ©nile demeure Ã©levÃ©e (108â€° en 2018). Des Ã©tudes antÃ©rieures ont largement mis en Ã©vidence les principaux dÃ©terminants de cette mortalitÃ© infanto-juvÃ©nile mais leur influence Ã diffÃ©rents niveaux dâ€™analyse reste trÃ¨s peu connue et documentÃ©e. La prÃ©sente Ã©tude y apporte une contribution en mesurant lâ€™influence des facteurs individuels, familiaux et rÃ©gionaux. Lâ€™application dâ€™une rÃ©gression logistique multiniveau aux donnÃ©es de lâ€™EnquÃªte DÃ©mographique et de SantÃ© (2018) montre que les facteurs individuels (rangs de naissance, niveau dâ€™instruction de la mÃ¨re, lâ€™ethnie, lâ€™Ã¢ge Ã lâ€™accouchement), les facteurs familiaux (niveau de vie du mÃ©nage) et les facteurs rÃ©gionaux (DegrÃ© dâ€™hÃ©tÃ©rogÃ©nÃ©itÃ© ethnique, couverture vaccinale et alphabÃ©tisation des mÃ¨res) sont significatifs pour expliquer cette mortalitÃ©.
The high mortality of children under-five is worrying. The World Summit for Children (1990) aimed to reduce by 1/3 its level from 1990 to 2000. Similarly, the Sustainable Development Goals for their part, aimed at a level of 25â€° at most by 2030. In Guinea, this mortality of children under-five remains high (108â€° in 2018). Previous studies have largely highlighted the main determinants of this mortality of children under-five, but their influence at different levels of analysis remains little known and documented. This study contributes to this by measuring the influence of individual, family and regional factors. The application of a multilevel logistic regression to data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (2018) shows that the individual factors (birth ranks, motherâ€™s level of education, ethnicity, age at childbirth), family factors (household standard of living) and regional factors (degree of ethnic heterogeneity, vaccination coverage and mothersâ€™ literacy) are significant in explaining this mortality.

Une campagne ocÃ©anographique cÃ´tiÃ¨re a Ã©tÃ© rÃ©alisÃ©e en Juillet 2018 entre El Jadida et Jorf Lasfar. Cette zone est caractÃ©risÃ©e par la prÃ©sence d'algues rouges et prÃ©sente une bathymÃ©trie trÃ¨s rÃ©guliÃ¨re de la cÃ´te Ã lâ€™isobathe 20m. Les paramÃ¨tres ocÃ©anographiques collectÃ©s au cours de cette mission montrent que la colonne d'eau est bien stratifiÃ©e avec des eaux froides riches en nutriments au fond et relativement plus chaudes et dÃ©ficientes en nutriments en surface. La zone Ã©tudiÃ©e est trÃ¨s influencÃ©e par la forte concentration des phosphates provenant des rejets de Jorf Lasfar. Durant la pÃ©riode de la campagne, la stratification verticale pourrait sâ€™expliquer par la faible activitÃ© des rÃ©surgences des eaux froides profondes. MalgrÃ© cette stratification, la colonne d'eau Ã©tait bien saturÃ©e en oxygÃ¨ne dissous aussi bien en surface quâ€™au fond.
A coastal oceanographic cruise was carried out on July 2018 between El Jadida and Jorf Lasfar. This area is characterized by the presence of red algae and presents a very regular bathymetry from the coast to isobaths 20m. The collected oceanographic parameters during this cruise show that the water column is well stratified with cold waters rich in nutrients at the bottom and relatively warmer and deficient in nutrients on the surface. The area study is very influenced by the high concentration of phosphates originated from Jorf Lasfar. During this summerâ€™s period, the vertical stratification could be explained by the low activity of the resurgences of cold deep waters. Despite this stratification, the water column is well saturated on dissolved oxygen both on the surface and at the bottom.
The impact of schizotypy on pragmatics
Authors: Chaves Monica de Freitas Frias , Rodrigues Cilene 
Published: October 2020

High levels of linguistic referential failures are associated with liability to develop schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, and it has been shown that these failures can differentiate healthy subjects, high-schizotypal and schizophrenics groups. Nevertheless, few investigations have focused on whether or not schizotypal traits in nonclinical populations can also impact linguistic reference. In Brazilian Portuguese, only one previous study (acceptability judgements task) had been conducted, and its results suggest association between schizotypal traits and a more rigid preference for assignment of specific readings to definite singular DPs. Here, we present another experimental study in Brazilian Portuguese, a comprehension task designed to examine possible effects of schizotypal personality traits on the interpretation of definite singular DPs. The findings, in line with the previous results, support the conclusion that schizotypy does affect the interpretation of definite singular DPs in Brazilian Portuguese. Together, these two experiments suggest that schizotypal personality traits impact the integration of linguistic contextual information into the semantic meaning of definite DPs. This is consistent with the general hypothesis that schizotypy, similarly to schizophrenia, is associated with pragmatic difficulties. Yet, our results emphasize that the impact of schizotypal traits on pragmatics can be observed even in healthy (nonclinical) speakers.
¿Por qué los países latinoamericanos sufren un estancamiento económico de largo plazo? Un estudio a partir de los casos de Argentina, Brasil y México
Authors: Salama Pierre 
Published: October 2020

El artículo trata de la situación de crisis latente que existe en América Latina desde hace varias décadas. Las tasas medias de crecimiento per cápita durante un largo periodo en la mayoría de los países de la región se sitúan entre 0 y 2%. Desde los años ochenta y noventa la tendencia al estancamiento no puede explicarse de la misma manera en los grandes países de América Latina. Si bien hay causas comunes, el peso de cada factor difiere. En este artículo se exponen las diversas teorías sobre la tendencia al estancamiento económico. Su originalidad radica en que no sólo pone en relieve el papel de las desigualdades en materia de ingresos y riqueza, o el papel de los procesos de desindustrialización, sino también las causas de la volatilidad económica y sus consecuencias para la baja tasa media de crecimiento per cápita, que es particularmente pronunciada en algunos países.
Contrarias a una idea relativamente compartida, estas economías han sido poco o nada emergentes a partir de los años 1980-1990, a excepción, tal vez, de los años 2000 a 2012, más o menos. Por lo tanto, no han convergido, o sólo lo han hecho de manera limitada, hacia el nivel de ingresos per cápita de los países avanzados, a diferencia de muchos países asiáticos. Los países de América Latina están experimentando varias dificultades al mismo tiempo que se alimentan unas de otras. La crisis es profunda. Es estructural en el sentido de que pone en duda los propios modos de expansión del capitalismo en las últimas décadas. Por lo tanto, sólo respuestas a este nivel pueden hacer posible la superación de los obstáculos al desarrollo sostenible, y la inclusión de aquellos, la mayoría, que son rechazados.
Removing a Retained Antibiotic Cement Nail from a Tibia
Authors: Mallon Zachary , Provus Jason , Lee Gavin 
Published: October 2020

Case:
We present a case of osteomyelitis after a grade 3A open tibial shaft fracture complicated by incomplete removal of an antibiotic intramedullary rod. The authors are unaware of any reports with this specific complication and provide a novel technique for cement mantle removal involving a distal tibial corticotomy and antegrade cement impaction.

Conclusion:
Antibiotic nails can successfully treat intramedullary osteomyelitis, but surgeons may encounter unexpected issues due to custom, intraoperative fabrication. This case describes one example of how to solve the intraoperative problem of a retained cement mantle during antibiotic rod extraction.
Insights into Polyphase Phanerozoic Tectonic Events in SE China: Integrated Isotopic Microanalysis of Detrital Zircon and Monazite

Published: October 2020

Abstract
Widespread Paleozoic and Mesozoic granites are characteristics of SE China, but the geodynamic mechanisms responsible for their emplacement are an issue of ongoing debate. To shed new light on this issue, we present an integrated geochronological and isotopic study of detrital zircon and monazite from Cambrian metasandstones and modern beach sands in the Yangjiang region, SE China. For the Cambrian metasandstone sample, detrital zircon displays a wide age range between 490 and 3000 Ma, while monazite grains record a single age peak of 235 Ma. The results suggest that a significant Triassic (235 Ma) metamorphic event is recorded by monazite but not zircon. For the beach sand sample, detrital zircon ages show six peaks at ca. 440, 240, 155, 135, 115, and 100 Ma, whereas detrital monazite yields a dominant age peak at 237 Ma and a very minor age peak at 435 Ma. Beach sand zircon displays features that are typical of a magmatic origin. Their Hf–O isotopes reveal two crustal reworking events during the early Paleozoic and Triassic, in addition to one juvenile crustal growth event during the Jurassic–Cretaceous. The beach sand monazite records intense Triassic igneous and metamorphic events with significant crustal reworking. Such early Paleozoic and Triassic geochemical signatures of detrital zircon and monazite suggest they were derived from granitoids and metamorphic rocks which formed in intraplate orogenies, i.e., the early Paleozoic Wuyi–Yunkai Orogeny and Triassic Indosinian Orogeny. The Jurassic–Cretaceous signature of detrital zircon may reflect multistage magmatism that was related to subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate beneath SE China.
Prediction of Slug/Churn Transition for Viscous Upward Two-Phase Flows in Vertical Pipes
Authors: Abdul-Majeed Ghassan H. , Firouzi Mahshid 
Published: October 2020

SummaryIn this study, we investigate the effect of liquid viscosity (μL) on the slug/churn transition in gas/liquid flows in vertical pipes. A total of 80 experimental churn-flow data points from two different sources are compiled as a data set, covering liquid viscosities from 17.23 to 586 mPa·s. Air was used in these studies as a gas phase with two different liquids, aqueous glycerol and a commercial synthetic mineral oil, flowing in vertical pipes of 0.0192- and 0.0508-m inner diameter (ID). The data set is used to examine the existing slug/churn-flow-transition models and provide further insights into the effect of μL on the transition. The existing models are categorized into two groups according to their response of the slug/churn transition to the increase in liquid superficial velocity (Vsl) on the Vsg/Vsl flow map. The first category exhibits a decrease in superficial gas velocity (Vsg) with the increase in Vsl at slug/churn (the transition concave to the left). The other one predicts an increase in Vsg with increasing of Vsl (the transition concave to the right). Analysis of the data set reveals that on the Vsg/Vsl flow map, the slug/churn transition moves toward lower superficial gas velocities as liquid viscosity increases and occurs approximately at a constant Vsg for low to medium Vsl. The predictions of these models were tested against the data set and poor results were shown by most models. The best performance is given by the Abdul-Majeed (1997) model. A dimensional analysis is applied in the present study to develop a new slug/churn-transition model. This analysis indicates that the transition is related to three dimensionless numbers, namely gas- and liquid-phase Froude numbers, in addition to the inverse liquid-viscosity number. An improved revision to the Abdul-Majeed model is achieved using these three dimensionless numbers. The revision enables the model to predict the transition for low, medium, and high liquid viscosity. The revised model clearly outperforms all the existing models for the present data and viscous data from independent studies. Furthermore, the revised model exhibits the expected trend against changes in pipe diameter and gas density.
Experimental and Theoretical Studies on the Porous Media Zeta Potential in Mineral Particle Mixtures

Published: October 2020

Summary
Numerous studies on electrical potential of particles have proven its wide range of applications in areas such as electrochemistry, geophysics, and hydrology. Because most researchers have only focused on single-type mineral particles, our knowledge about zeta potential is extremely limited, despite the fact that most natural rocks are mixtures of different pure minerals.
In this research, we investigated the zeta potential of mixed samples, made of two pure components with different surface potentials. The ultimate goal is to measure the zeta potential of mixed minerals, existing on different surfaces, and subsequently to evaluate the effect of permeability (capillary radius) on the measured zeta of single-type particles.
The analysis of the obtained results from the samples, made of two different minerals, suggests that there is a linear relationship between zeta potential and the overall area of single-type particles. Furthermore, it indicates that the absolute values of zeta potential, existing in samples of similar types and different sizes, change linearly by varying permeability. Eventually, a simple model is proposed to predict the overall zeta potential based on each component’s zeta. The predictability of the model is also evaluated by conducting a stream potential experiment on porous media of different sizes and types. The model is properly able to predict zeta potential of different mixtures based on the average of surface area and permeability changes.

Abstract
Background No Pain Labor ＆Delivery (NPLD) is a nongovernmental project to increase access to safe neuraxial analgesia through specialized training. This study explores the change in overall cesarean delivery (CD) rate and maternal request CD(MRCD) rate in our hospital after the initiation of neuraxial analgesia service (NA). Methods NA was initiated in May 1st 2015 by the help of NPLD. Since then, the application of NA became a routine operation in our hospital, and every parturient can choose to use NA or not. The monthly rates of NA, CD, MRCD, multiparous women, intrapartum CD, episiotomy, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), operative vaginal delivery and neonatal asphyxia were analyzed from January 2015 to April 2016. Results The rate of NA in our hospital was getting increasingly higher from 26.1% in May 2015 to 44.6% in April 2016 (p<0.001); the rate of CD was 48.1% (3577/7360) and stable from January to May 2015 (p＞0.05), then decreased from 50.4% in May 2015 to 36.3% in April 2016 ( p<0.001); the rate of MRCD was 11.4% (406/3577) and also stable from January to May 2015 (p＞0.05), then decreased from 10.8% in May 2015 to 5.7% in April 2016 (p<0.001). At the same time, the rate of multiparous women remained unchanged during the 16 month of observation (p＞0.05). There was a negative correlation between the rate of NA and rate of overall CD, r=-0.782 (95%CI [-0.948, -0.534], p＜0.001), and between the utilization rate of NA and rate of MRCD, r=-0.914 (95%CI [-0.989, -0.766], p＜0.001). The rates of episiotomy, PPH, operative vaginal delivery and neonatal asphyxia in women who underwent vaginal delivery as well as the rates of intrapartum CD, neonatal asphyxia, and PPH in women who underwent CD remained unchanged, and there was no correlation between the rate of NA and anyone of those rates from January 1st 2015 to April 30th 2016 (p＞0.05). Conclusions: Our study shows that the rates of CD and MRCD in our department were significantly decreased from May 1st 2015 to April 30th 2016, which may be due to the increasing use of NA during vaginal delivery with the help of NPLD.
