Authors: Lovera Dolores , Martínez-Cuellar Celia , Galeano Fernando , Amarilla Sara , Vazquez Cynthia , Arbo Antonio 
Published: January 2020

Introduction: Dengue virus (DENV) infection is currently a major cause of morbidity in the world, and its incidence has mainly increased during the last years in Latin America, including Paraguay. The objective of this study was to compare the clinical and laboratory findings of dengue and assess whether the serotype is a risk factor for severity.
Methodology: We included patients ≤ 15 years old hospitalized with dengue at the Institute of Tropical Medicine, from Paraguay, from 2007 to 2018. Patients were classified according to the 2009 WHO dengue classification guidelines and were stratified by serotype into three groups according to the hospitalization period: the 2007 epidemic (DENV-3), the 2012-2013 epidemic (DENV-2) and the 2016-2018 epidemic (DENV-1).
Results: Of 784 children hospitalized for dengue, 50 cases (6.3%) were caused by DENV-3, 471 (60%) by DENV-2, and 263 (33.5%) by DENV-1. Myalgias and headache were associated with DENV-3 cases and abdominal pain was associated with DENV-2 cases. Bleeding was observed mainly in DENV-1 and 2 cases. Patients with DENV-2 infections experienced more severe disease, required fluid expansion more frequently, and exhibited more often shock and admission in the ICU. Secondary cases of dengue were more severe that primary cases. Patients with infection by DENV-2 had longer hospital stays (5.1 ± 2.8 days) when compared to DENV-3 o DENV-1 infection cases (2.9 ± 1.6 days and 4.36 ± 2.7 days, respectively) (p < 0.05).
Conclusions: The DENV serotype has a profound impact on the clinical manifestations and severity of dengue. DENV-2 infections were associated more frequently to requirement of fluid expansion, shock, and longer hospital stay.

Published: January 2020

Introduction: Antibiotic consumption is associated with the development of antibiotic resistance. Our aim was to study the relationship between antibiotic consumption and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) in three public general tertiary hospitals from 2011-2015 in the eastern, western and central regions of China.
Methodology: Valid data were collected quarterly, and the antibiotic consumption data were expressed as the defined daily dose (DDD) per 100 inpatient days (ID). Bacterial resistance was reported as the percentage of resistant isolates among all tested isolates. Individual trends were calculated by linear regression, while possible correlations between antibiotic consumption and CRKP were evaluated by distributed lags time series analysis.
Results: Over the 5-year period, an overall significant increasing trend (P < 0.1, R2 > 0.3) of carbapenems consumption and the prevalence of CRKP was observed in all three hospitals. This correlated with the use of ceftazidime, cefoperazone/sulbactam, cefminox and meropenem at a hospital in eastern China, with the increased use of meropenem at a hospital in eentral China and with the increased use of doxycycline, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, meropenem and biapenem at a hospital in western China.
Conclusions: We report a high incidence of CRKP in all three hospitals and that an increase in carbapenem usage is associated with this. Further research is needed to elucidate which factors influence the increased consumption of carbapenems.

Introduction: Control of vaccine preventable diseases, while constituting a priority of European health policies, is challenged by migrations from countries with suboptimal levels of immunization coverage. We report here two different types of vaccination campaign strategy in one of the bigger Italian asylum seekers’ centres. The vaccination service staff of the local national health institute came monthly during the first three years of observation, while in the last year, the vaccinations were offered directly upon arrival of migrants in the asylum seekers’ centre.
Methodology: we performed a descriptive cross-sectional study that analysed data collected from the database of the internal healthcare facility and ARVA Target tool, regarding vaccinations performed from 2013 to 2017 in the asylum seekers’ centre.
Results: In the four years of observation period the asylum seekers centre hosted 3941 migrants. Among them, 85% were vaccinated during their stay, for a total of 4252 vaccinations administered, covering 95% of minors and 85% of adults. During the study period, there was an important increase from an average of 10.5% of migrants vaccinated in the first three years to 66% in the last year, when vaccines were delivered directly upon arrival in the centre.
Conclusions: To improve the rate of immunization in migrants, the first requirement is a strong collaboration with the local vaccine services and the second,vaccinations must be carried out when migrants arrive at the asylum seekers’ centre, avoiding any delay.
Élections grecques : chronique d’une défaite annoncée
Authors: Chiclet Christophe 
Published: January 2020

Dans nos numéros de l’automne et de l’hiver 2014 1 , nous avions annoncé la victoire de la gauche radicale grecque puis son impossibilité à appliquer son programme de libéralisation économique et sociale. Était-ce si prémonitoire ? En fait pas vraiment. Un petit pays, seul sur la voie du combat contre le néolibéralisme tout puissant, n’avait aucune chance. Après quatre ans de gouvernance, le parti Syriza et son Premier ministre Alexis Tsipras ont perdu les législatives du 7 juillet dernier. Pouvait-il en être autrement tellement cette expérience gênait tant de monde ? Il n’est désormais plus nécessaire de faire sortir les soldats des casernes pour étrangler les expériences populaires. Le poids des pressions économiques et financières suffit largement, sans la moindre effusion de sang.
Doing Bad to Look Good: Negative Consequences of Image Concerns on Prosocial Behavior
Authors: Soraperra Ivan , Suvorov Anton , Van de Ven Jeroen , Villeval Marie Claire 
Published: January 2020

Plusieurs études montrent que les préoccupations d’image sociale stimulent les comportements prosociaux. Nous étudions un contexte dans lequel il existe une incertitude sur l’action qui est prosociale. La quête d’une meilleure image sociale entre alors potentiellement en conflit avec le comportement prosocial. Ce conflit peut induire un « mauvais » comportement, où les individus réduisent leurs gains monétaires et ceux des autres afin de préserver une bonne image. Ce phénomène s’applique à divers types de biens de confiance. Par exemple, recommander un traitement bon marché réduit le profit de l’expert et risque de ne pas satisfaire le véritable besoin du client, mais est généralement bon pour l’image de l’expert (en signalant une absence de cupidité). Nous testons expérimentalement si les individus décident parfois de mal agir afin de bien paraître. Nous constatons que les individus se soucient de leur image, mais ces préoccupations seules ne les induisent pas à mal agir. Sans perspectives de futures interactions, les soucis d’image ne justifient pas un mauvais comportement. En revanche, quand la perspective de futures interactions donne une valeur instrumentale à la construction d’une bonne image (problèmes de réputation), nous observons des mauvais comportements à court terme afin d’assurer des revenus supérieurs à long terme.

Mesurer les orientations de l’identité pour comprendre les préférences : une validation française du questionnaire sur les aspects de l’identité
Authors: Yin Rémi , Etilé Fabrice 
Published: January 2020

Les concepts et travaux récents de la recherche en psychologie de l’identité peuvent permettre de mieux comprendre la formation et la dynamique des préférences économiques. Dans cette perspective, nous proposons une traduction française du questionnaire Aspects of Identity IV (AIQ-IV) qui mesure l’orientation individuelle de l’identité subjective selon ses dimensions personnelle, relationnelle, publique et collective (Cheek et Briggs [1982], [2013]). Cette étude de validation psychométrique teste les validités interne et externe de l’échelle sur un échantillon représentatif de jeunes adultes français (N = 1 118). Les analyses factorielles exploratoires et confirmatoires révèlent une structure à quatre facteurs qui correspond bien aux aspects personnel, relationnel, public et collectif de l’identité. Les réponses individuelles sont stables dans le temps. De plus, tout en étant modérément corrélée à des construits psychologiques connexes (estime de soi, estime de soi sociale, conscience de soi), les dimensions de l’AIQ-IV prédisent, à des degrés variés, les préférences pour le risque et le temps ainsi que les préférences sociales, mesurées grâce à des échelles de Likert ou des choix hypothétiques.
Mesure de Holt et Laury et décisions d’assurance : une même attitude face au risque ?
Authors: Corcos Anne , Pannequin François , Montmarquette Claude 
Published: January 2020

L’attitude face au risque est un élément fondamental de la théorie de la décision et, en particulier, de la théorie de l’assurance. À l’aide d’une expérimentation fondée sur un modèle théorique, cet article examine si les attitudes face au risque (aversion ou goût pour le risque) obtenues à l’aide de la procédure de Holt et Laury [2002] sont corrélées avec celles inférées des décisions d’assurance en laboratoire. Nos résultats mettent en évidence la grande cohérence des attitudes vis-à-vis du risque évaluées à l’aide de ces deux procédures : pour plus des deux tiers des sujets rationnels, les deux mesures conduisent à la même affectation. De plus, l’intensité de l’aversion ou du goût pour le risque mesurée par la procédure de Holt et Laury fournit une bonne estimation du montant de couverture demandée.
Égoïste maintenant, ou altruiste (pour) demain ? Stratégies inter vs intragénérationnelles pour la conservation d’une ressource commune
Authors: Ajdukovic Ivan , Spiegelman Eli , Sutan Angela 
Published: January 2020

La protection de l’environnement passe par la mise en œuvre d’actions coûteuses, au profit de personnes parfois inconnues et éloignées dans le temps. Ces actions pourraient sembler irrationnelles, sauf dans le cas où un individu chercherait à protéger le bien-être de proches, dans de futures générations. Nous comparons expérimentalement deux situations d’exploitation d’une ressource commune : les individus extracteurs sont membres de générations qui se suivent, sans lien dynastique (1) ; les individus des diverses générations sont membres de dynasties (2). Les individus qui savent que leur décision d’extraction va affecter les membres de leur dynastie appartenant à des générations futures font une extraction significativement moindre que les autres.
Re-treatment in LASIK: To Flap Lift or Perform Surface Ablation
Authors: Chan Colin , Lawless Michael , Sutton Gerard , Hodge Chris 
Published: January 2020

PURPOSE:
To review safety and efficacy outcomes following re-treatment for residual refractive errors in eyes with prior laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and determine the most appropriate course of action for patients.

METHODS:
A review of all patients undergoing LASIK enhancement at a single refractive surgery center between 2012 and 2017 was undertaken. Refraction and biomicroscopy results before and after enhancement were collated and analyzed according to the method of enhancement (flap lift or surface ablation).

RESULTS:

A total of 108 eyes were included in the analysis; 58 eyes underwent flap lift and 50 underwent surface ablation retreatment with mean times to enhancement of 22.3 and 53.2 months, respectively. The mean spherical equivalent prior to enhancement was −0.43 ± 0.69 and −1.03 ± 1.01 diopters (D) for the flap lift and surface ablation groups, respectively. The absolute difference from intended refraction was statistically significant (lift 0.16 ± 0.24 versus surface ablation 0.31 ± 0.35 D;
P
= .01). The difference was more pronounced for eyes with prior hyperopia (
P
= .041). The incidence of haze following re-treatment was 3.4% in the flap lift group versus 10.0% in the surface ablation group, and 8.6% of the flap lift group had evidence of epithelial ingrowth, with 1 eye requiring washout. There was no correlation between time to enhancement, refraction, and incidence of complications following the enhancement procedure.

CONCLUSIONS:
There has been a trend toward treating residual LASIK refractive error through surface ablation. This review suggests that flap lift may result in a more accurate refractive outcome, albeit with an expected greater risk of epithelial ingrowth.

Sediment-filled karst depressions and &lt;i&gt;riyad&lt;/i&gt; – key archaeological environments of south Qatar
Authors: Engel Max , Rückmann Stefanie , Drechsler Philipp , Brill Dominik , Opitz Stephan , Fassbinder Jörg W. , Pint Anna , Peis Kim , Wolf Dennis , Gerber Christoph , Pfeiffer Kristina , Eichmann Ricardo , Brückner Helmut 
Published: January 2020

Abstract. Systematic archaeological exploration of southern Qatar started in the
1950s. However, detailed local and regional data on climatic fluctuations
and landscape changes during the Holocene, pivotal for understanding and
reconstructing human–environment interactions, are still lacking. This
contribution provides an overview on the variability of geomorphic
environments of southern Qatar with a focus on depression landforms, which
reveal a rich archaeological heritage ranging from Palaeolithic(?) and Early
Neolithic times to the Modern era. Based on a detailed geomorphic mapping
campaign, sediment cores and optically stimulated luminescence data, the
dynamics of riyad (singular rawdha; shallow, small-scale, sediment-filled karst
depressions clustering in the central southern peninsula) and the
larger-scale Asaila depression near the western coast are studied in order
to put archaeological discoveries into a wider environmental context.
Geomorphic mapping of the Asaila basin shows a much greater geomorphic
variability than documented in literature so far with relict signs of
surface runoff. An 8 m long sediment core taken in the sabkha-type sand
flats of the western basin reveals a continuous dominance of aeolian
morphodynamics during the early to mid-Holocene. Mounds preserved by
evaporite horizons representing capillarites originally grown in the vadose
zone are a clear sign of groundwater-level drop after the sea-level
highstand ca. 6000–4500 years ago. Deflation followed the lowering of the
Stokes surface, leaving mounds where the relict capillarites were
able to fixate and preserve the palaeo-surface. Abundant archaeological
evidence of Early and Middle Neolithic occupation – the latter with a clear
focus inside the central Asaila basin – indicate more favourable living
conditions than today. In contrast, the sediment record of the investigated riyad in the south
is very shallow, younger and controlled by surface discharge, deflation and
the constantly diminishing barchan dune cover in Qatar over the Middle and
Late Holocene. The young age of the infill (ca. 1500 to 2000 years) explains
the absence of findings older than the Late Islamic period. Indicators of current
net deflation may relate to a decrease in surface runoff and sediment supply
only in recent decades to centuries. In the future, geophysical prospection
of the riyad may help to locate thicker sedimentary archives and the analysis of
grain size distribution, micromorphology, phytoliths or even pollen spectra
may enhance our understanding of the interplay of regional environmental
changes and cultural history.
Reconstruction of the 1941 GLOF process chain at Lake Palcacocha (Cordillera Blanca, Peru)

Published: January 2020

Abstract. The Cordillera Blanca in Peru has been the scene of rapid deglaciation
for many decades. One of numerous lakes formed in the front of the
retreating glaciers is the moraine-dammed Lake Palcacocha, which drained
suddenly due to an unknown cause in 1941. The resulting Glacial Lake
Outburst Flood (GLOF) led to dam failure and complete drainage of Lake
Jircacocha downstream, and to major destruction and thousands of fatalities
in the city of Huaráz at a distance of 23 km. We chose an integrated
approach to revisit the 1941 event in terms of topographic reconstruction
and numerical back-calculation with the GIS-based open-source mass
flow/process chain simulation framework r.avaflow, which builds on an
enhanced version of the Pudasaini (2012) two-phase flow model. Thereby we
consider four scenarios: (A) and (AX) breach of the moraine dam of Lake
Palcacocha due to retrogressive erosion, assuming two different fluid
characteristics; (B) failure of the moraine dam caused by the impact of a
landslide on the lake; and (C) geomechanical failure and collapse of the
moraine dam. The simulations largely yield empirically adequate results with
physically plausible parameters, taking the documentation of the 1941 event
and previous calculations of future scenarios as reference. Most simulation
scenarios indicate travel times between 36 and 70 min to reach
Huaráz, accompanied with peak discharges above 10 000 m3 s−1. The results of the scenarios indicate that the most likely initiation mechanism would be retrogressive erosion, possibly
triggered by a minor impact wave and/or facilitated by a weak stability
condition of the moraine dam. However, the involvement of Lake Jircacocha
disguises part of the signal of process initiation farther downstream.
Predictive simulations of possible future events have to be based on a
larger set of back-calculated GLOF process chains, taking into account the
expected parameter uncertainties and appropriate strategies to deal with
critical threshold effects.

Performance a imagen y semejanza de lo ‘indecente’: El evangelio según Santa Rita de Ana Francis Mor
Authors: Martinez Noriega Adriana 
Published: January 2020

El presente texto plantea un análisis crítico de las estrategias subversivas articuladas en la obra de teatro El evangelio según Santa Rita de Ana Francis Mor. En términos metodológicos, el estudio coloca la obra en el cruce entre teatralidad, religión, “mexicanidad” y re-presentación, y, apoyado en preceptos de los estudios de performance, las “políticas de identidad” y la “teología indecente”, destaca las formas en las que ésta deconstruye y reconfigura el patriarcal imaginario religioso-político nacional. Asimismo, alineada con el tono feminista y queer de la trama, esta investigación resalta la fuerza epistémica del performance como medio para “pervertir” textual y visualmente la Biblia a través de la lectura de un cuerpo marcado por su sexo, género y preferencia sexual.
The present text offers a critical analysis of the subversive strategies articulated in the play El evangelio según Santa Rita by Ana Francis Mor. Methodologically speaking, this study centers Mor’s piece at the crossroads between theatricality, religion, “Mexicanness” and re-presentation, and, using performance studies, “identity politics” and “indecent theology” as a platform, it highlights the ways in which the play deconstructs and reconfigures the patriarchal religious-political Mexican imaginary. Also, aligned with the feminist and queer tone of the plot, this research underscores the epistemic strength of the performance as a means to textually and visually ‘pervert’ the Bible by embodying it in a particular sex, gender and sexual preference.
