La galerie des Batailles ou la fin de la « belle guerre »
Authors: James-Sarazin Ariane 
Published: April 2020

Voulue par Louis-Philippe qui la dédia en 1837 « à toutes les gloires de la France », la galerie des Batailles à Versailles continue d’obéir, en plein mouvement romantique, aux canons plastiques et didactiques du beau tel que le théorisa en France au xvii e siècle l’Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture. Pourtant, son projet muséographique apparaît à la fois comme l’apothéose et le dernier feu d’une double conception, tant historique qu’esthétique, désormais dépassée.
La beauté discrète de l’armée française
Authors: Tournier Jacques 
Published: April 2020

Dès lors que les armées se présentent avant tout comme des « machines de guerre » focalisées sur la performance opérationnelle, envisager qu’elles puissent revêtir une certaine forme de beauté semble quelque peu incongru. Pourtant, s’agissant de l’armée française, le fait qu’elle soit, plus que jamais, imprégnée par une éthique fondée sur un souci scrupuleux de la vie humaine et de la dignité de l’homme lui confère une sorte de supplément d’âme qui, transparaissant derrière sa puissance, lui donne de rayonner d’une ineffable beauté intérieure.
Musique derrière le rideau de fer
Authors: de Kaniv Nathalie 
Published: April 2020

Si l’ underground musical des pays d’Europe centrale sous domination soviétique se défend tout d’abord de tout engagement politique, les répressions le rapprochent toutefois rapidement des cercles de la dissidence. Il joue incontestablement un rôle libérateur au sein des mouvements protestataires des années 1960, ainsi que dans la période de la fin du communisme. À tel point que la musique accompagne largement le mouvement de libération de 1989.
Colonic Metastases from a Luminal A Type Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Breast: A Rare Case Report
Authors: Sehrawat Amit , Kotwal Sumedha Ahal , Gupta Deni 
Published: April 2020

AbstractMetastatic carcinoma breast involving hepatobiliary system and peritoneum is a common and well-described entity. However, colonic luminal involvement by breast metastases is rare and its early recognition is important for accurate management planning. We report a case of an elderly woman with luminal A type invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) breast, initially controlled/stabilized on hormonal treatment and later progressed to involve colon presenting with intestinal obstructive symptoms. Lobular carcinoma breast which constitutes around 10% of breast cancers is more likely to have gastrointestinal tract (GIT) involvement. On the other hand, GIT metastasis from IDC breast is quite rare. Given the progressively increasing survival with current and forthcoming novel treatment modalities, it is very important to recognize and understand unusual presentation of metastatic breast cancer, such as colonic metastasis, for timely treatment planning and implementation.

Abstract
Background: Meningiomas consist of 15%–30% of the primary intracranial tumors, and high-grade meningiomas have a higher recurrence after surgery. The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status is important in the medical management of patients with various human cancers. This study aimed to evaluate HER2 expression in meningiomas and the correlation between this expression and age, gender, and grade. Materials and Methods: In a descriptive-analytic study, immunohistochemistry (IHC) with HER2 marker was done on confirmed cases of meningioma which were referred to the pathology laboratory from 2008 to 2015. The primary antihuman antibody against c-erbB-2 oncoprotein (DAKO Diagnostics) was used for IHC. Results: Of 117 patients, 68.4% were males. The mean age of the patients was 53.6 years. Grades I, II, and III tumors were 90.6%, 8.5%, and 0.9% of cases, respectively. Totally, 76 (65%) of patients were HER2 positive, with only 7.7% of highly expressed HER2. There was no significant correlation between the mean age (P = 0.672), age group (P = 0.256), sex (P = 0.574), and grade (P = 0.093) and HER2 expression status. Conclusions: We did not find a statistically significant correlation between age, sex, or grade and HER2 status; however, further studies with a higher number of Grades II and III meningiomas and using the fluorescent in situ hybridization in equivocal cases may be of benefit in this way.
Trastuzumab: A Milestone in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2-Positive Breast Cancer
Authors: Dhanushkodi Manikandan 
Published: April 2020

AbstractHuman epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression is seen in 25% of breast cancers. Patients with HER2-positive breast cancer have aggressive disease and inferior survival. HER2 overexpression is assessed by immunohistochemistry or fluorescent in situ hybridization-based methods. Trastuzumab has shown to improve survival in HER2-positive breast cancer. It is recommended in patients with >T1c for 1-year duration in adjuvant setting, preferably given concurrently with taxane.

Published: April 2020

AbstractCervical teratomas are very rare tumors, accounting for approximately 3%–5% of all pediatric teratomas with predominance in females. Most common site of cervical teratoma is sacrococcygeal region and occurrence in cervical region is a rare presentation. We present a case of cervical teratoma in a 4-month-old male infant presenting as neck mass mimicking as neuroblastoma with differentiation on fine-needle aspiration. The final diagnosis of mature teratoma was made on histopathological examination.
Shallow cumuli cover and its uncertainties from ground-based lidar–radar data and sky images

Published: April 2020

Abstract. Cloud cover estimates of single-layer shallow cumuli obtained from narrow
field-of-view (FOV) lidar–radar and wide-FOV total sky imager (TSI) data are
compared over an extended period (2000–2017 summers) at the established
United States Atmospheric Radiation Measurement mid-continental Southern
Great Plains site. We quantify the impacts of two factors on hourly and
sub-hourly cloud cover estimates: (1) instrument-dependent cloud detection
and data merging criteria and (2) FOV configuration. Enhanced observations
at this site combine the advantages of the ceilometer, micropulse lidar
(MPL) and cloud radar in merged data products. Data collected by these three
instruments are used to calculate narrow-FOV cloud fraction (CF) as a
temporal fraction of cloudy returns within a given period. Sky images
provided by TSI are used to calculate the wide-FOV fractional sky cover
(FSC) as a fraction of cloudy pixels within a given image. To assess the
impact of the first factor on CF obtained from the merged data products, we
consider two additional subperiods (2000–2010 and 2011–2017 summers) that
mark significant instrumentation and algorithmic advances in the cloud
detection and data merging. We demonstrate that CF obtained from ceilometer
data alone and FSC obtained from sky images provide the most similar and
consistent cloud cover estimates; hourly bias and root-mean-square
difference (RMSD) are within 0.04 and 0.12, respectively. However, CF from
merged MPL–ceilometer data provides the largest estimates of the multiyear
mean cloud cover, about 0.12 (35 %) and 0.08 (24 %) greater than FSC for
the first and second subperiods, respectively. CF from merged
ceilometer–MPL–radar data has the strongest subperiod dependence with a
bias of 0.08 (24 %) compared to FSC for the first subperiod and shows no
bias for the second subperiod. The strong period dependence of CF obtained
from the combined ceilometer–MPL–radar data is likely results from a change
in what sensors are relied on to detect clouds below 3 km. After 2011, the
MPL stopped being used for cloud top height detection below 3 km, leaving
the radar as the only sensor used in cloud top height retrievals. To
quantify the FOV impact, a narrow-FOV FSC is derived from the TSI images. We
demonstrate that FOV configuration does not modify the bias but impacts the
RMSD (0.1 hourly, 0.15 sub-hourly). In particular, the FOV impact is
significant for sub-hourly observations, where 41 % of narrow- and
wide-FOV FSC differ by more than 0.1. A new “quick-look” tool is introduced
to visualize impacts of these two factors through integration of CF and FSC
data with novel TSI-based images of the spatial variability in cloud cover.
The influence of cloud field organization, such cloud streets parallel to
the wind direction, on narrow- and wide-FOV cloud cover estimates can be
visually assessed.
Observations of late-winter marine microbial activity in an ice-covered fjord, west Greenland
Authors: Chandler David , Mackie Shona 
Published: April 2020

Abstract. Direct observations of marine microbial metabolism are
sparse in the Arctic, particularly under sea ice during winter. This paper
presents the first observations of Arctic winter microbial activity under
sea ice in a west Greenland fjord (Lillefjord, ∼ 70∘ N). Here, measured changes in dissolved oxygen (DO) content in light and
dark in situ incubations were used to calculate net community productivity,
respiration and photosynthesis rates. Data were collected at two fully
ice covered sites during February 2013, shortly after the end of the polar
night. Averaged over the full study period, dark incubations showed
statistically significant decreases in DO of -0.36±0.24 (near
shore) and -0.09±0.07 g O2 m−3 d−1 (fjord centre),
indicating respiration rates that were 2–20 times greater than rates
previously reported under sea ice in the Arctic. Meanwhile, a lack of
significant evidence for photosynthesis suggests that the rate of
photosynthesis – if it was occurring – was much lower than that of
respiration. The data also show no significant evidence of a temporal trend
in metabolism rates over the study period; however, ambient seawater DO
increased significantly at the fjord centre (0.023±0.013 g O2 m−3 d−1), possibly attributable to processes not occurring in the
incubations (such as sea ice algal photosynthesis). These data may improve
our understanding of microbial activity in the fjord during winter, and its
contribution to Arctic ecosystems under present and future conditions. The
data are archived at PANGAEA (https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.906332,

A crash-testing framework for predictive uncertainty assessment when forecasting high flows in an extrapolation context
Authors: Berthet Lionel , Bourgin François , Perrin Charles , Viatgé Julie , Marty Renaud , Piotte Olivier 
Published: April 2020

Abstract. An increasing number of flood forecasting services assess and communicate the uncertainty associated with their forecasts. While obtaining reliable forecasts is a key issue, it is a challenging task, especially when forecasting high flows in an extrapolation context, i.e. when the event magnitude is larger than what was observed before. In this study, we present a crash-testing framework that evaluates the quality of hydrological forecasts in an extrapolation context. The experiment set-up is based on (i) a large set of catchments in France, (ii) the GRP rainfall–runoff model designed for flood forecasting and used by the French operational services and (iii) an empirical hydrologic uncertainty processor designed to estimate conditional predictive uncertainty from the hydrological model residuals. The variants of the uncertainty processor used in this study differ in the data transformation they use (log, Box–Cox and log–sinh) to account for heteroscedasticity and the evolution of the other properties of the predictive distribution with the discharge magnitude. Different data subsets were selected based on a preliminary event selection. Various aspects of the probabilistic performance of the variants of the hydrologic uncertainty processor, reliability, sharpness and overall quality were evaluated. Overall, the results highlight the challenge of uncertainty quantification when forecasting high flows. They show a significant drop in reliability when forecasting high flows in an extrapolation context and considerable variability among catchments and across lead times. The increase in statistical treatment complexity did not result in significant improvement, which suggests that a parsimonious and easily understandable data transformation such as the log transformation or the Box–Cox transformation can be a reasonable choice for flood forecasting.
A methodology to estimate flow duration curves at partially ungauged basins
Authors: Ridolfi Elena , Kumar Hemendra , Bárdossy András 
Published: April 2020

Abstract. The flow duration curve (FDC) of streamflow at a specific site has a key role in the knowledge on the distribution and characteristics of streamflow at that site. The FDC gives information on the water regime, providing information to optimally manage the water resources of the river. In spite of its importance, because of the lack of streamflow gauging stations, the FDC construction can be a not straightforward task. In partially gauged basins, FDCs are usually built using regionalization among the other methods. In this paper we show that the FDC is not a characteristic of the basin only, but of both the basin and the weather. Different weather conditions lead to different FDCs for the same catchment. The differences can often be significant. Similarly, the FDC built at a site for a specific period cannot be used to retrieve the FDC at a different site for the same time window. In this paper, we propose a new methodology to estimate FDCs at partially gauged basins (i.e., target sites) using precipitation data gauged at another basin (i.e., donor site). The main idea is that it is possible to retrieve the FDC of a target period of time using the data gauged during a given donor time period for which data are available at both target and donor sites. To test the methodology, several donor and target time periods are analyzed and results are shown for different sites in the USA. The comparison between estimated and actually observed FDCs shows the reasonability of the approach, especially for intermediate percentiles.
Love in Hurston's Art and Life
Authors: Patterson Tiffany Ruby 
Published: April 2020

ABSTRACT
Love centers Zora Neale Hurston's art and her life. Her most celebrated novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, and her sharply criticized autobiography, Dust Tracks on A Road, explore the beauty and difficulties of love for women in the early twentieth century. Janie in Their Eyes was forced to choose between love and freedom to be herself. For Hurston, passionate love for one man competed with her deep desire for a career as a writer and playwright. In all instances, self-fulfillment won out over love.
Melatonin protects mouse oocyte from heat stress damage
Authors: Du Haiyan , Wang Shouhong , Huang Weiwei 
Published: April 2020

Objective: To explore the potential effect of melatonin on the in-vitro maturation of mouse oocytes under heat shock condition.Methods: This study used a heat shock model of mouse oocyte maturation. The oocytes were randomly divided into three groups: control group, heat shock group and heat shock + melatonin group, in order to evaluate the effect of 1×10−9 mol/L melatonin on the quality of oocytes after heat shock.Results: In comparison with the control group, the maturation rate of mouse oocytes in heat shock group was significantly decreased [(33.00 ± 0.07)% vs. (85.00 ± 0.03)%, p < .01], with abnormal spindle assembly, and the early apoptosis rate was significantly increased [(59.7 ± 4.5)% vs. (22.0 ± 3.5)%, p < .01]. Compared with heat shock group, the maturation rate ofoocytes was significantly increased in heat shock + melatonin group [(70.00 ± 0.05)% vs. (33.00 ± 0.07)%, p < .01], meanwhile, the spindle abnormality rate and the early apoptosis rate were significantly decreased accordingly [(37.3 ± 6.1)% vs. (59.7 ± 4.5)%, p < .01]. The expression level of heat shock protein 70 was significantly up-regulated in heat shock + melatonin group in comparison with other two groups (p < .01).Conclusions: By regulating the over-expression of heat shock protein 70, melatonin can improve the declined maturation rate of oocytes and the increased rates of spindle assembly abnormality and early apoptosis caused by heat shock.

Authors: Wyatt Ronald WB , Lin Charles C. , Norheim Elizabeth P. , Przepiorski Diane , Navarro Ronald A. 
Published: April 2020

Introduction:
Musculoskeletal injury can substantially affect orthopaedic surgeons and productivity. The objective of this study was to assess occupation-related neck pain and cervical radiculopathy/myelopathy among orthopaedic surgeons and to identify the potential risk factors for injury.

Methods:
An online survey was sent to orthopaedic surgeons via their state orthopaedic society. The survey consisted of items related to orthopaedic practices, such as the number of arthroscopic procedures done and the use of microscopes/loupes. The prevalence, potential causes, and reporting practices of neck pain and cervical radiculopathy/myelopathy among orthopaedic surgeons were also assessed.

Results:
There were 685 responses from surgeons representing 27 states. A total of 59.3% of respondents reported neck pain and 22.8% reported cervical radiculopathy. After adjusting for age and sex, surgeons performing arthroscopy had an odds ratio of 3.3 (95% confidence interval: 1.4 to 8.3, P = 0.007) for neck pain. Only five of the surgeons with neck pain and one of the surgeons with cervical radiculopathy/myelopathy had ergonomic evaluations.

Conclusion:
Neck pain and cervical radiculopathy/myelopathy are common among orthopaedic surgeons. Associated factors included older age, higher stress levels, and performing arthroscopy. Cervical injuries are rarely reported, and ergonomic workplace evaluations are infrequent.
Transvaginal ultrasonography and the progestogen challenge test in postmenopausal endometrial evaluation

Published: July 2002

AbstractObjective: To analyze the morphologic and ultrasonographic aspects of the endometrium of postmenopausal women according to the progestogen challenge test. Methods: The study was conducted on 150 postmenopausal women. Each patient was submitted to transvaginal ultrasonography for measurement of endometrial echo thickness and to endometrial biopsies, followed by the progestogen challenge test. Results: Women with a negative test presented atrophic endometrium in 94% of cases. The other 6% have shown active endometrium, but none had hyperplasia. However, 56% of the patients with a positive test had atrophic endometrium. There was a correlation between endometrial thickness less than 5 mm and endometrial atrophy in patients with either positive or negative tests. Conclusion: Because the progestogen challenge test is cheap and easy to deal with, it can be done as a primary screening method in asymptomatic postmenopausal women. If the test is positive, ultrasonography is required in order to determine who needs a more accurate examination of the endometrium. If the test is negative, ultrasonography is not required due to the great number of women who have atrophic endometrium.
Integrating product mix and technology adoption decisions: a portfolio approach for evaluating advanced technologies in the automobile industry
Authors: Morgan Leslie Olin , Daniels Richard L. 
Published: July 2002

AbstractInteractions with managers in the automobile industry indicate that efforts to bring potentially profitable new technologies into production are often frustrated by the traditional unit cost‐based approach that is used for evaluating new technologies. Opportunities for timely introduction of valuable or even preemptive technologies can be missed because unit cost comparisons, typically applied to a limited set of vehicle configurations with volumes based on current demand figures, invariably favor incumbent over new technologies. In this research, we develop a more complete technology adoption decision model that integrates product mix and technology adoption decisions. Specifically, we recognize that product mix and volume are important variables in determining the cost effectiveness of new technologies, and include in the model customer demand projections that reflect market trends (e.g. growing demand for increasingly sophisticated features and functions in vehicles). Anticipated experience benefits are then applied to the appropriate production volumes to more accurately predict the profit impact of adopting new technologies. The introduction of automotive multiplexing, a technology that is characteristic of current technological advances in the industry, provides a context for considering insights that can be derived from the decision model. Our interaction with a global Tier I automotive systems supplier allowed us to obtain representative cost data and other information relevant to the technology adoption decision.
Dynamic contributions to superior shoulder stability
Authors: Halder A. M. , Zhao K. D. , O'Driscoll S. W. , Morrey B. F. , An K. N. 
Published: July 2002

AbstractIt has been suggested that superior decentralization of the humeral head is a mechanical factor in the etiology of degenerative rotator cuff tears. This superior decentralization may be caused by muscular imbalance. The objective of this study was to investigate the contribution of individual shoulder muscles to superior stability of the glenohumeral joint. In 10 fresh frozen cadaver shoulders the tendons of the rotator cuff, teres major, latissimus, pectoralis major, deltoid and biceps were prepared. The shoulders were tested in a shoulder‐loading device in 0°, 30°, 60° and 90° of glenohumeral abduction. A constant superior force of 20 N was applied to the humerus. Tensile loads were applied sequentially to the tendons in proportion to their cross‐sectional areas and translations of the humeral head relative to the glenoid were recorded with a 3Space™ Fastrak system. Depression of the humeral head was most effectively achieved by the latissimus (5.6 ± 2.2 mm) and the teres major (5.1 ± 2.0 mm). Further studies should elucidate their possible in vivo role in the frontal plane force couple to counter balance the deltoid. The infraspinatus (4.6 ± 2.0 mm) and subscapularis (4.7 ± 1.9 mm) showed similar effects while the supraspinatus (2.0 ± 1.4 mm) was less effective in depression. Therefore, the infraspinatus and subscapularis should be surgically repaired whenever possible. The supraspinatus may be of less importance for superior stability than previously assumed. © 2001 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
