Published: October 2021

Introduction:Acinetobacter baumannii infections are a growing public-health concern. The bacterium&rsquo;s potentiality to acquire resistance to a number of commonly used antibiotics has turned it into a formidable pathogen.
Aims: Molecular characterization of extensive drug resistant (XDR) typing of A. baumannii clinical isolates by polymerase chain reaction.
Materials and methods: Thirty XDR A. baumannii were investigated for the presence of genes encoding carbapenemase resistance, biofilm capacity, autoinducer synthase, virulence and surface motility by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Later, the isolates were typed by plasmid-based replicon (Rep) (PBRT) and trilocus sequence typing.
Results: All 30 XDR A. baumannii strains displayed genes related to surface motility, autoinducer synthase, virulence determinant, biofilm related genes except PER, and bap, the frequency of which was 83.3% and 76.6%, respectively. Analysis of rep genes showed highest frequency of rep6 and rep2 genes, with frequency of 75% and 65%, respectively. All XDR A. baumannii strains belonged to SG I (European clone II) group.
Conclusions: Our results show the extraordinary plasticity of XDR A. baumannii and suggest that the strains have gained endemicity in our hospital, which could be a great concern in the near future.
Comparative analysis of awareness of medical professionals in three Balkan countries (Bulgaria, Croatia, and Slovenia) of continuing education of medical professionals in the area of pharmaceutical policy in the respective countries
Authors: Brankov Branimir , Zlatareva Albena 
Published: October 2021

Aim: The objectives of our study were to establish the extent to which medical professionals are willing to upgrade their skills, to find out whether they have to resort often in their daily work to the support of colleagues in matters related to pharmaceutical policy, and to find out if they attend any forms of continuing education and whether such forms are available at their workplaces. The study also aimed to establish what web-based forms of continuous education the graduated medical professionals in Bulgaria, Croatia, and Slovenia know and consider to be up-to-date and adequate to their needs for specialised training programmes which ensure that their knowledge will be adequate to the constantly evolving environment in the area of pharmaceutical policy and pharmaceutical regulation.
Materials and methods: A survey was carried out among a representative sample drawn from three Balkan countries: Bulgaria, Croatia, and Slovenia. The survey was based on voluntary participation and relied on the &lsquo;snowballing&rsquo; technique in order to recruit respondents and disseminate questionnaires.
Results: The results from the study demonstrate that the respondents are willing to, and are aware that they should, join forms of continuing education in the area of pharmaceutical policy since some of them encounter certain challenges related to the level of their knowledge in this domain, and that the deployment of specialised online programmes and other activities (such as workshops, conferences, etc.) for professional qualification of employees will certainly contribute to the enhancement of their qualification and to the improvement of the health services provided to citizens.
Conclusions: To keep in pace with modern trends in the area of postgraduate education, the medical universities which are most trusted by the respondents from the three countries included in survey as well as the career development services providers which offer postgraduate training courses should focus on the development and implementation of innovative forms of web-based postgraduate/upskilling education in the area of pharmaceutical policy to ensure that more potential learners can join and update their understanding of this dynamic and rapidly evolving area of scientific knowledge.

Introduction: The T315I mutation in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has been associated with therapeutic resistance and an unfavourable prognosis.
Aim: To study the frequency of T315I mutation in patients with CML, BCR-ABL&nbsp;(+), their clinical characteristics, disease evolution, and median survival.
Patients and methods: We studied 75 patients with CML and BCR-ABL1&nbsp;(+). T315I mutation was detected by digital droplet PCR and BCR-ABL1 was analyzed by RT-PCR. A comparative analysis was performed by sex, age, disease phase, risk group, treatment, molecular response (MR), and median survival in T315I&nbsp;(+) and T315I&nbsp;(&minus;) patients.
Results: T315I mutation was detected in 11 patients (14.7%). No significant difference was found in the phase, risk group, and first-line therapy. A significantly higher proportion of T315I&nbsp;(+) did not achieve MR&nbsp;>3.5 log: 8 (72.7%) vs. 22 (34.4%) (p=0.023). The lowest mean BCR-ABL1 levels were significantly higher in the CML T315I&nbsp;(+) group compared to the CML T315I&nbsp;(&minus;) group: 12.1&plusmn;6.0 vs. 3.77&plusmn;1.28 (p=0.009). The median survival of T315I&nbsp;(+) patients was significantly shorter: 73 months vs. 175 months (p<0.0001, CI 95%).
Conclusions: Our data confirm the world experience on the frequency of T315I mutation, including the unfavourable evolution, resistance to TKI treatment and short survival. ddPCR is a highly sensitive method for early detection of genetic mutations which gives the chance for effective treatment.
Ricœur et la Revue du christianisme social
Authors: Monteil Pierre-Olivier 
Published: October 2021

Créé en 1888, le Mouvement du Christianisme social engage une confrontation critique et utopique entre le christianisme et la question sociale, en particulier à travers sa revue. Paul Ricœur s’y investit dès les années 1930 et exercera la présidence du Mouvement de 1958 à 1970. Sa contribution d’une quarantaine d’articles à la revue déploie une critique sociale, politique et culturelle. Cette composante de l’œuvre du philosophe se distingue par la particularité d’un style qui se réfère à une théologie biblique et s’adresse à un public protestant. Elle est aussi l’expression d’une pensée en travail, qui se cherche. Mais sa portée ne s’appréhende qu’en articulation avec ce que Ricœur écrit ailleurs. Le souci d’articuler conviction et responsabilité le conduit en effet à se confronter à la tradition dans laquelle il se reconnaît afin d’en dégager un sens à reverser ensuite au débat général, dans la visée universaliste de la discussion. La Revue du Christianisme socia l est ainsi le laboratoire d’où procèdent, entre autres, le « paradoxe politique » ou la « petite éthique » de Soi-même comme un autre.
Les contributions de Paul Ricœur aux revues des Facultés libres de théologie protestante de Paris et de Montpellier
Authors: Boss Marc 
Published: October 2021

Les contributions de Paul Ricœur aux revues des Facultés libres de théologie protestante de Paris et de Montpellier Entre 1960 et 1989, Paul Ricœur a publié sept articles dans les revues des Facultés libres de théologie protestante de Paris et de Montpellier : un dans Église et théologie , et six dans Études théologiques et religieuses . Dans quelle mesure ce corpus éclaire-t-il la question controversée des implications théologiques de la pensée de Ricœur ? L’étude de ces textes et de leur histoire éditoriale montre que les soupçons de « crypto-théologie » dont Ricœur a dû se défendre sont injustifiés non parce qu’il n’existerait pas de théologie chez lui, mais parce que celle-ci n’a rien de cryptique. Que ce soit en tant que méthode herméneutique au service de l’exégèse ou en tant que « théologie herméneutique » revendiquée comme telle, sa réflexion théologique s’exprime en termes rigoureusement identiques dans des revues telles qu’ Église et théologie ou Études théologiques et religieuses et dans les publications qu’il considérait comme les lieux d’expression de son travail philosophique.
Faire « une 1898 militaire » ! Le droit à réparation sous l’uniforme ou l’impossible réforme des pensions
Authors: Bertschy Sylvain 
Published: October 2021

Cet article retrace l’histoire d’une série de mobilisations parlementaires qui, dans les années 1900, visent à réformer le régime d’administration des infirmités militaires en étendant aux professionnels de la guerre et aux conscrits la loi du 9 avril 1898. L’enquête donne d’abord à voir les logiques du processus d’assimilation de l’obligation militaire à un risque social. Il montre comment s’élaborent alors deux répertoires de solutions mutuellement exclusifs et comment les oppositions de l’armée, des conservateurs et les divisions internes au monde de la réforme sociale aboutissent à l’échec des projets de réforme. Loin d’être sans effet, ces derniers ont cependant contribué à la requalification de la question « infirmité militaire » par la logique assurantielle.
Medication Administration Errors and Contributing Factors at Nurses Workplace: Literature Review
Authors: Sakalauskaitė Dovilė , Kielė Viktorija 
Published: October 2021

Abstract. Medication errors are a serious problem that can be a threat to health and patient safety and can lead to mistrust of the health system and the work of professionals. Medication administration errors occur at any stage of patient care and can be related to a variety of influencing factors [1].
This literature review identifies the main medication administration errors, which are grouped into medication administration and incorrect documentation of administered medication groups. Along with medication administration errors, the main reasons why nurses make errors in medication administration are identified.
The study focuses on medication administration errors and their determinants in nurses' work.
The aim of the literature review was to analyze medication errors and their determinants in nurses' work.
Methods: an exploratory review was conducted to analyze medication administration errors and their determinants in nurses' work. The methodology considered five main stages that contributed to a focused analysis of the selected studies.
Results of the literature review. It was found that medication errors are influenced by the work environment, which is full of extraneous sounds, other members of the medical team, and conversations unrelated to the administration of medicines. The human factor is also a factor in medication administration errors related to the medication, its dose, or the wrong administration time. Medication administration errors are inevitable, no matter how advanced the patient's care and nursing techniques.
Space weather study through analysis of solar radio bursts detected by a single-station CALLISTO spectrometer

Published: October 2021

Abstract. This article summarises the results of an analysis of solar radio bursts (SRBs) detected by the Compound Astronomical Low-cost
Low-frequency Instrument for Spectroscopy and Transportable Observatory (CALLISTO) spectrometer hosted by the University of Rwanda. The data analysed were detected during the first year (2014–2015) of the instrument operation. Using quick plots provided by the e-CALLISTO website, a total of 201 intense and well-separated solar radio bursts detected by the CALLISTO station located in Rwanda, are found consisting of 4 type II, 175 type III and 22 type IV radio bursts. It is found that all analysed type II and ∼ 37 % of type III bursts are associated with impulsive solar flares, while the minority (∼ 13 %) of type IV radio bursts are associated with solar flares. Furthermore, all type II radio bursts are associated with coronal mass ejections (CMEs), ∼ 44 % of type III bursts are associated with CMEs, and the majority (∼ 82 %) of type IV bursts were accompanied by CMEs. With aid of the atmospheric imaging assembly (AIA) images on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), the location of open magnetic field lines of non-flare-associated type III radio bursts are shown. The same images are used to show the magnetic loops in the solar corona for type IV radio bursts observed in the absence of solar flares and/or CMEs. Findings from this study indicate that analysis of SRBs that are observed from the ground can provide a significant contribution to the early diagnosis of solar transients phenomena, such as solar flares and CMEs, which are major drivers of potential space weather hazards.

Published: October 2021

Abstract. The importance of Antarctic sea ice and Southern Ocean warming has come into
the focus of polar research during the last couple of decades. Especially
around West Antarctica, where warm water masses approach the continent and
where sea ice has declined, the distribution and evolution of sea ice play a
critical role in the stability of nearby ice shelves. Organic geochemical
analyses of marine seafloor surface sediments from the Antarctic continental
margin allow an evaluation of the applicability of biomarker-based sea-ice
and ocean temperature reconstructions in these climate-sensitive areas.
We analysed highly branched isoprenoids (HBIs), such as the sea-ice proxy
IPSO25 and phytoplankton-derived HBI-trienes, as well as phytosterols and
isoprenoidal glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs), which are
established tools for the assessment of primary productivity and ocean
temperatures respectively. The combination of IPSO25 with a
phytoplankton marker (i.e. the PIPSO25 index) permits semi-quantitative
sea-ice reconstructions and avoids misleading over- or underestimations of
sea-ice cover. Comparisons of the PIPSO25-based sea-ice distribution
patterns and TEX86L- and RI-OH′-derived ocean temperatures with (1) sea-ice concentrations obtained from satellite observations and (2)
instrument measurements of sea surface and subsurface temperatures
corroborate the general capability of these proxies to determine oceanic key
variables properly. This is further supported by model data. We also
highlight specific aspects and limitations that need to be taken into
account for the interpretation of such biomarker data and discuss the
potential of IPSO25 as an indicator for the former occurrence of
platelet ice and/or the export of ice-shelf water.

Abstract. The mass of the Greenland ice sheet is declining as mass gain from snow
accumulation is exceeded by mass loss from surface meltwater runoff,
marine-terminating glacier calving and submarine melting, and basal
melting. Here we use the input–output (IO) method to estimate mass change from 1840 through next week. Surface mass balance (SMB) gains and losses come from
a semi-empirical SMB model from 1840 through 1985 and three regional climate models (RCMs; HIRHAM/HARMONIE, Modèle Atmosphérique Régional – MAR, and RACMO – Regional Atmospheric Climate MOdel) from 1986 through next
week. Additional non-SMB losses come from a marine-terminating glacier ice discharge product and a basal mass balance model. From these products we
provide an annual estimate of Greenland ice sheet mass balance from 1840
through 1985 and a daily estimate at sector and region scale from 1986 through
next week. This product updates daily and is the first IO product to include
the basal mass balance which is a source of an additional ∼24 Gt yr−1 of mass loss. Our results demonstrate an accelerating
ice-sheet-scale mass loss and general agreement (coefficient of determination,
r2, ranges from 0.62 to 0.94) among six other products, including
gravitational, volume, and other IO mass balance estimates. Results from this
study are available at https://doi.org/10.22008/FK2/OHI23Z (Mankoff et al., 2021).
Late Eocene–early Miocene evolution of the southern Australian subtropical front: a marine palynological approach
Authors: Hoem Frida S. , Sauermilch Isabel , Hou Suning , Brinkhuis Henk , Sangiorgi Francesca , Bijl Peter K. 
Published: October 2021

Abstract. Improvements in our capability to reconstruct ancient surface-ocean conditions based on organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) assemblages from the Southern Ocean provide an opportunity to better establish past position, strength and oceanography of the subtropical front (STF). Here, we aim to reconstruct the late Eocene to early Miocene (37–20 Ma) depositional and palaeoceanographic history of the STF in the context of the evolving Tasmanian Gateway as well as the potential influence of Antarctic circumpolar flow and intense waxing and waning of ice. We approach this by combining information from seismic lines (revisiting existing data and generating new marine palynological data from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Hole 1168A) in the western Tasmanian continental slope. We apply improved taxonomic insights and palaeoecological models to reconstruct the sea surface palaeoenvironmental evolution. Late Eocene–early Oligocene (37–30.5 Ma) assemblages show a progressive transition from dominant terrestrial palynomorphs and inner-neritic dinocyst taxa as well as cysts produced by heterotrophic dinoflagellates to predominantly outer-neritic/oceanic autotrophic taxa. This transition reflects the progressive deepening of the western Tasmanian continental margin, an interpretation supported by our new seismic investigations. The dominance of autotrophic species like Spiniferites spp. and Operculodinium spp. reflects relatively oligotrophic conditions, like those of regions north of the modern-day STF. The increased abundance in the earliest Miocene of Nematosphaeropsis labyrinthus, typical for modern subantarctic zone (frontal) conditions, indicates a cooling and/or closer proximity of the STF to the site . The absence of major shifts in dinocyst assemblages contrasts with other records in the region and suggests that small changes in surface oceanographic conditions occurred during the Oligocene. Despite the relatively southerly (63–55∘ S) location of Site 1168, the rather stable oceanographic conditions reflect the continued influence of the proto-Leeuwin Current along the southern Australian coast as Australia continued to drift northward. The relatively “warm” dinocyst assemblages at ODP Site 1168, compared with the cold assemblages at Antarctic Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Site U1356, testify to the establishment of a pronounced latitudinal temperature gradient in the Oligocene Southern Ocean.
Head’s Leadership Styles and Effectiveness of School Teams: Exploring the Role of Motivational Mechanisms
Authors: Anjum Allah Wasaya , Awan Riffat un Nisa , Muhammad Zulqarnain  
Published: October 2021

The literature reveals that participative leadership style (PLS) is overwhelmingly advantageous over the contrasting directive leadership style (DLS). Therefore, the key objective of this study was to find out the relative effect of a PL style as compared to a DL style on the motivational mechanism (organizational commitment and empowerment) and effectiveness (innovation and in-role performance) of school staff teams. However, the mediating role of motivational mechanism in the relationship between school heads’ leadership styles and effectiveness of school staff teams had also been studied. The data were collected through a questionnaire based cross-sectional survey. The data were collected from the 402 teachers working in 80 academic teams. The SEM results revealed that DLS was significantly related to teams’ in-role performance and organizational commitment. While, PLS was significantly related to in-role performance, team’s innovation, organizational commitment and personal empowerment. Teachers’ personal empowerment partially mediated the relationship between heads’ PLS and team innovation. But, organizational commitment fully mediated the relationship between heads’ PLS and teams’ in-role performance. However, organizational commitment partially mediated the relationship between heads’ DLS and teams’ in-role performance. It is suggested that heads might concurrently combine participative and directive leadership behaviors to make their school teams more effective.
Pioneras del Trabajo Social: Políticas de género, racialización y conocimiento en la disciplina
Authors: García Dauder Dau 
Published: October 2021

Recuperar la historia de las trabajadoras sociales es un ejercicio de justicia epistémica que puede contribuir a repensar la identidad profesional de la disciplina. A través de un recorrido histórico con perspectiva feminista, este artículo analiza cómo las políticas de género y racialización han guiado las políticas de conocimiento. Atendemos a los procesos de segregación sexual disciplinar en la institucionalización de la ciencia social: entre una sociología teórico-académica, masculinizada y legitimada, y su cara práctico-aplicada, feminizada y desvalorizada, convertida en trabajo social. Así mismo, mostramos las estrategias y negociaciones de las pioneras articulando, desde centros sociales como la Hull House, la investigación sociológica con la reforma sociopolítica. En concreto, presentamos los aportes teórico-prácticos de las pioneras del trabajo social, principalmente en Estados Unidos, centrándonos en: Edith Abbott y Sophonisba Breckinridge, por su papel en la institucionalización de la disciplina, y en las trabajadoras sociales afroamericanas, por la invisibilización de sus experiencias y resistencias.
Highways to Growth: Infrastructure and Economic Performance in Africa
Authors: Chuku Chuku , Simpasa Anthony , Ekpo Akpan 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
In this study, we investigate the extent to which infrastructure development affects economic performance in Africa. To pick up the economy-wide effects and possible feedback mechanism from network externalities, we jointly estimate a system of equations that endogenizes the relationship between infrastructure demand and supply with an aggregate output equation, using nonlinear 3SLS-GMM techniques. We find causal evidence of a significant positive link between infrastructure development and economic growth, especially for transport infrastructure. We also find evidence of infrastructure’s increasing returns to growth, with the strongest growth potential materializing after a critical mass of infrastructure has been built and network externalities kick in. One policy implication from our findings is that it is “big-push” and not marginal infrastructure improvements that are required to attain a critical mass, kick start network externalities, and fully unlock infrastructure’s growth potential for the continent. Our results reinforce the case for regional infrastructure integration in Africa.
