Changing Student Outcomes Without Sacrificing Student Satisfaction
Authors: Kinyon Kathryn , D'Alton Shannon V. , Poston Kristen M. , Anderson Berry S. 
Published: March 2021

Background:
Faculty teaching a large class size implemented evidence-based teaching strategies (EBTS) to improve mastery of core concepts in an accelerated undergraduate pediatric nursing course.

Method:
Pre- and poststudent outcomes were analyzed using data from course assessments and American Technologies Institute (ATI) concept mastery testing to evaluate the effectiveness of course revisions. ATI designates three proficiency levels to determine mastery. A proficiency of level two exceeds the minimum expectations for mastery, whereas a proficiency level of three suggests students exceed NCLEX-RN standards of content.

Results:
Data indicated implementation of new EBTS facilitated improvement in student content mastery. Students exceeded the minimum expectations for NCLEX-RN standards of pediatric content. Course revisions resulted in all students achieving benchmark on ATI concept mastery testing with a three-fold increase in students achieving the highest level of proficiency.

Conclusion:

EBTS can be adapted for a large class size learning environment with improved learning outcomes.

Devenir musicien « ordinaire »
Authors: Pégourdie Adrien 
Published: March 2021

Cet article est consacré au rapport au métier de musiciens classiques « ordinaires » enseignant dans des conservatoires de province. Une première partie se penche sur leurs parcours de formation, et plus précisément sur les raisons de leur engagement dans une carrière artistique. Sont alors abordés les mécanismes de construction des vocations artistiques des musiciens classiques ordinaires. Nous montrerons comment le sentiment vocationnel s’ancre autour de deux principes fondamentaux : la prédestination, appréhendée sous l’aspect du don, et le comportement ascétique. Il s’agit de montrer les processus d’inculcation de ces deux principes en se penchant sur les conditions objectives ainsi que sur les agents et les institutions, en particulier l’environnement familial et le système de formation, qui participent à ce travail d’appropriation tout en permettant son occultation. Une seconde partie est ensuite consacrée à la manière dont ce sentiment vocationnel s’accommode d’une pratique enseignante quotidienne dans un conservatoire modeste. Nous verrons les différentes logiques de requalification de cette pratique distinguant affiliation de la pédagogie au modèle de l’art pour l’art, mission d’encadrement de la jeunesse et démarche quasi militante censée assurer une démocratisation de l’accès à la musique.
From 7 to 280 Players
Authors: Bonifay Florence 
Published: March 2021

“RéseauxPoètesXVI” (Sixteenth Century Poets Network) is a database listing 2,200 references which demonstrate the perspectives on poetic activity of around 280 men and women of letters from 1549 to 1586. It records a network of citations between poets (a “who names who ?”), giving access to texts in full. In so doing, it gives a new perspective – that of representations of sociability – on the literary history of this period, considering the “Pléiade” (the name given to a group of seven prominent sixteenth century French poets) as a microphenomenon within much wider poetic sociability. The database is a tool to analyse the organization and presentation of networks of poets, highlighting the latter’s intense reflexivity on the social group they formed with their peers. The texts that it brings together thus help to gradually determine the place and value of French literature, providing an important breeding ground for what Alain Viala has called the gradual autonomization of the “literary field” in the seventeenth century.
Presentation of Six Databases in Arts and Culture
Authors: Ducournau Claire , Glinoer Anthony 
Published: March 2021

In order to supplement the special issue while opening up to other fields aside literature, here are six short presentations of data bases that were devised during historical or sociological researches on arts and culture. The authors were asked six questions : on the birth of the data basis project, the body of documents, the scientific field and/or theoretical framework, the softwares used, the scientific results reached thanks to this specific approach, as well as the accessibility of the data bases produced. The data bases presented were selected on the grounds of the pioneering character, rigour and breadth of the research projects: the data basis on writers, works, and the French-speaking Belgian journals on literature of the interuniversity literary studies collective (Collectif interuniversitaire d’étude littéraire — CIEL) ; the data basis that served for the publishing of Pierre Bayle’s letters ; the Chronopéra data basis ; the Manart data basis dedicated to artistic and literary 19 c. events ; the data bases in the book and publishing history set up by the research group on book studies in Québec (Groupe de recherches et d’études sur le livre au Québec - GRÉLQ) ; the ARTL@S project that includes in particular a data basis of exhibition catalogues.
Les frontières de la compétence
Authors: Coavoux Samuel 
Published: March 2021

Cet article examine un point d’intersection entre deux spécialités apparemment éloignées, la sociologie des publics des musées et celle des comportements politiques, qui partagent un concept, la compétence. En quoi les travaux récents de sociologie politique peuvent-ils fournir une analogie fructueuse pour penser les publics de l’art ? En prenant un appui empirique sur une recherche par observations et entretiens portant sur la réception située d’une œuvre d’art, La Fuite en Égypte de Nicolas Poussin (1657), l’article explore plusieurs pistes : la dimension statutaire de la compétence, l’appui sur les petits niveaux de compétence et les ressources données par l’expérience personnelle pour prendre une position, ainsi que la mise en évidence de la normativité de la compétence (la visite, comme le vote, bien que dans une mesure moindre, constitue à bien des égards un devoir).
Une partition non musicale
Authors: Deslyper Rémi 
Published: March 2021

Alors que dans la majorité des études sociologiques sur les musiciens de musiques « populaires » contemporaines, ceux-ci sont, explicitement ou implicitement, distingués selon leur genre musical (les « rockeurs », les « rappeurs », les « jazzmen », etc.), cet article se propose de mettre au jour une autre ligne de clivage entre musiciens qu’est le mode de formation. À partir de l’étude des élèves des écoles de « musiques actuelles », nous montrerons, en nous focalisant sur trois points de leur pratique, que la forme scolaire tend à développer chez les musiciens un rapport formel à la musique et à sa pratique qui les différencie fortement des musiciens formés par un apprentissage informel. Il apparait ainsi qu’élèves et autodidactes n’ont, pour ainsi dire, pas la même pratique musicale.
Rêverie d’un traducteur
Authors: Jouanlanne Christophe 
Published: March 2021

La rêverie serait-elle un bon instrument pour la connaissance de la traduction ? Une réflexion sur le travail de la traduction implique qu’on interrompe le travail pour observer ce que l’on fait en le faisant. Ainsi, puisant dans son expérience de traducteur de la correspondance de Walter Benjamin, l’auteur montre comment une part de rêverie – associations spontanées de l’inconscient, faculté de constituer un monde séparé de la réalité selon Freud – entre dans les opérations concrètes de la traduction. Il propose ainsi de reformuler l’adage « traduire, c’est trahir » : traduire, c’est faire entendre une chose dans une langue, c’est-à-dire la faire reconnaître dans cette langue aux personnes qui la parlent, tout en trahissant la manière dont l’autre langue la fait reconnaître. La rêverie serait alors le mode de perception de cette différence, dont la restitution concrète est, de fait, impossible.
Repenser le concept d’autonomie pour la sociologie des biens symboliques
Authors: Sapiro Gisèle 
Published: March 2021

Cet article revisite le concept d’autonomie tel qu’il est employé dans le cadre des réflexions sociologiques sur les conditions de production et de circulation des biens symboliques. En première partie est dressé un état des lieux de ses usages dans trois traditions intellectuelles : la sociologie des professions, la théorie du reflet marxiste, et la théorie des champs. En dépit des différences entre ces trois traditions et de l’incompatibilité partielle des usages qu’elles font du concept, il existe des zones de recoupement et des articulations possibles entre ces approches, développées dans la deuxième partie. Elles permettent de faire des propositions en vue d’une synthèse raisonnée de ces usages pour l’analyse sociologique de la production et de la circulation des biens symboliques, présentée en troisième partie.
Relationship between Vitamin D level and Insulin Resistance According to Obesity Level
Authors: ERDOĞAN Bülent 
Published: March 2021

Introduction: Obesity and metabolic syndrome are universal health problems. There is increasing evidence that vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor in the development of insulin resistance(IR). This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between vitamin D level and IR in obese patients.
Method: The study included 95 adult, obese patients, without a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia. Fasting blood glucose, insulin, 25-OH-vitamin D, and serum lipid levels were measured and the HOMA-IR level was calculated. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to their obesity level.
Results: Seventy-eight (82.1%) of patients were female and vitamin D deficiency was found in 77.9% of the patients. The median HOMA-IR level of the group with and without vitamin D deficiency was 3.57, and 2.39, respectively (p = 0.029).
There weren't any significant differences in gender, BMI, and vitamin D levels between the groups with /without IR.
No difference was found between obesity level groups in terms of age, gender, and vitamin D level. However, while insulin level and IR level increased significantly in morbid obese patients, this relationship could not be demonstrated in super-obese patients.
Conclusion: This study is the first study investigating the relationship between vitamin D-HOMA-IR in morbid and super obese patients. No statistically significant linear correlation was found between vitamin D and HOMA-IR level, but vitamin D deficiency was more common in the group with IR. Additional studies are needed to explain the relationship between the level of obesity and the effect of vitamin D on IR.
The potential of peer assisted learning as a tool for facilitating social and academic integration

Published: March 2021

Research into the transition of first year students in higher education (HE) confirms that student integration into the academic community is a primary condition for student success (Borglum & Kubala, 2000; Tinto & Pusser, 2006; Tovar, Simon & Lee, 2009; Stebleton, Soria & Huesman, 2014). It is also crucial that it is combined with peer support if students are going to settle into university life (Hamshire, Jack, Prowse, & Wibberley, 2015a). This article seeks to explore the potential value and purposes of peer assisted learning (PAL) as a tool to increase the social and academic integration of first year university students. Focus group interviews (n=16) were conducted between the spring and autumn of 2013 with first-year students (n=93) enrolled in the Faculty of Educational Sciences (Psychology and Educational sciences) at the Free University of Brussels. By using the method of appreciative inquiry (AI), respondents suggested that peer-assisted learning methods are important tools for enhancing social and academic integration.ÃÂ In this sense, tutoring and mentoring need to address specific criteria on at least two organisational dimensions (Topping & Ehly, 2001):ÃÂ (a) objectives of the subject and (b) contact installation. This article aims to prompt further discussion on the potential, value and purposes of peer-assisted learning programmes for integration.
Book review: Critical thinking skills for healthcare by Stephanie McKendry.
Authors: Lewitt Moira 
Published: March 2021

Critical thinking is an essential goal of all education, particularly higher education. However it is "a complex and controversial notion that is difficult to define and, consequently, to study" (Abrami et al. 2008). The critical thinking movement that emerged in North America in the 1980s was characterised by debate around how this concept should be defined as well as how it should be taught.
A little and often: unanticipated outcomes from an ePortfolio evaluation impacting on early identification of risk and non submission of work
Authors: Lawton Megan , Purnell Emma 
Published: March 2021

Since 2005 all staff and students within the University of Wolverhampton have had access to an ePortfolio system - PebblePad. In 2007 the University ran a HEA Pathfinder Project 'embedding ePortfolio at level 1' which involved 1800 level 1 learners and 31 members of staff across all academic schools. The staff development activities used to develop teacher capabilities tried to mirror the student experience to great success. The knowledge gained from this project was then taken into a University-wide impact evaluation. The evaluation identified anticipated and unanticipated outcomes of pedagogic processes for personal development planning (PDP) and e-portfolio development. This paper will deal with two key areas: 1 the early identification of risk and 2 the reduction in non-submission of work. This work now feeds into the University's Blended Learning Strategy (2008). The overarching aims of this strategy are to enhance student learning and to improve each student's learning experience. This is articulated via student entitlements of which the following are directly addressed by this work: All students should be entitled to:formative assessment/s opportunities on line with meaningful electronic assessment feedback;have the opportunity to participate in electronic Personal Development Planning (ePDP);The paper will look at how an ePortfolio system was used to develop learner skills, learner support issues and how staff from a central department worked with discipline-based staff to help support their students, finally addressing institutional strategy and support issues.

Authors: Gupta Seema R , Thorawade Vandana P , Khan Mohammad Hanif MS 
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Pleomorphic adenoma of minor salivary glands of the hard palate is a rare benign tumor that has elements of both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. It usually presents as slow-growing painless submucosal mass on the hard palate. Diagnosis rests on clinical features and tissue examination with radiological investigations helping in surgical planning.

Aim and objective
To add to the literature few more cases of this relatively rare condition and discuss its clinical presentation and management.

Case description
Here, we present a case series of three patients who presented with a mass over the hard palate that was subsequently diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma and discuss the treatment of the same.

Conclusion
Treatment of choice is wide local excision with removal of periosteum or bone if involved. Recurrence rate is low.

Usefulness of CyberKnife Therapy in Patients with Differentiated Thyroid Cancer with Distant Metastases
Authors: Yoshida Atsushi , Higashiyama Shigeaki , Katayama Yutaka , Yamanaga Takashi , Kawabe Joji 
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT
Aim and objective
We reported seven cases in which external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) with CyberKnife therapy was effective against distant metastases from differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).

Materials and methods
The subjects included seven patients (6 males, 1 female; age 53–77 years, average age 65.85 years) who underwent CyberKnife therapy for metastatic lesions of DTC (pathological diagnosis: differentiated papillary carcinoma). The target lesions included 12 lymph node, 6 bone, and 2 brain metastases. All patients had previously undergone total thyroidectomy, followed by radioactive iodine therapy (RAIT). Since RAIT was not expected to have a therapeutic effect, CyberKnife treatment was selected. CyberKnife irradiation was performed 1–5 times. The radiation doses covering 95% of the planning target volume (D95) ranged from 15 to 26 gray (Gy). To determine the therapeutic effect, lesion size was evaluated by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before and 6–12 months after treatment.

Results
No increase in size was observed in the brain and bone metastases. Among the lymph node metastatic lesions, a therapeutic effect involving internal necrosis without an increase in size was noted in two lymph node metastases in the cervix. Additionally, two lymph node metastases in the neck had reduced in size. No increases in size were observed in the other lymph node lesions, reflecting the therapeutic effect of CyberKnife.

Conclusions
CyberKnife may be useful in treating distant metastatic lesions of papillary thyroid cancer.

Clinical significance
CyberKnife is useful as a multidisciplinary treatment for cases in which radioactive iodine therapy is maladjusted.

The association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations and serum lipids in the Southern Thai population
Authors: Jeenduang Nutjaree , Sangkaew Boonnisa 
Published: March 2021

IntroductionDyslipidaemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Vitamin D deficiency has been found to be associated with CVD. However, the relationships between vitamin D and lipids are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between vitamin D status and serum lipids in Southern Thai subjects.Material and methodsA total of 726 healthy subjects in Southern Thailand were enrolled in the study. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), lipid profiles, fasting plasma glucose, anthropometric data, blood pressure, and body composition were measured. The relationship between serum 25(OH)D levels and biochemical data was evaluated by partial correlation and multiple linear regression analyses. The association of serum 25(OH)D levels with dyslipidaemia was analysed using multivariate regression analysis.ResultsSerum 25(OH)D levels were negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and body composition parameters after adjusting for age in women. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that TC and BMI were independent predictors for 25(OH)D concentrations in women. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the odds ratio of hypertriglyceridaemia (OR 0.51; 95% CI: 0.32–0.80, p = 0.004) and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (OR 0.43; 95% CI: 0.26–0.71, p = 0.001) were significantly lower in vitamin D sufficiency when compared with hypovitaminosis D in women.ConclusionsVitamin D sufficiency could reduce risk of hypertriglyceridaemia and reduced HDL-C, particularly in women, suggesting that vitamin D sufficiency may have beneficial effects on lipids and a decreased risk for CVD in Thai women.

Published: March 2021

IntroductionProteomics technology platforms offer an extremely useful tool for the discovery of new cancer biomarkers. Secreted proteins play important roles in signal transduction, cellular growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. This study aimed to investigate the molecular signatures of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by quantitative proteomics using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).Material and methodsIn this study, we used an iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic approach to analyse the secretome of HCC tissues to identify plasma biomarkers. Serum-free conditioned media (CM) were collected from the primary cultures of cancerous tissues, the surrounding noncancerous tissues, and distal noncancerous tissues.ResultsA proteomic analysis of the CM proteins allowed for a total of 5214 identified proteins, of which 190 and 44 proteins were dysregulated in the HCC tissues/distal noncancerous tissues (HCC/DN group) and the adjacent noncancerous tissues/distal noncancerous tissues (AN/DN group) compared with the distal noncancerous tissues. The dysregulated proteins in the HCC/DN group were concentrated in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling and Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of the transcription (JAK-STAT) signalling, but the dysregulated proteins in the AN/DN group were more concentrated in the basal material metabolism.ConclusionsThe secretome profile alternations and signalling pathways were associated with HCC incidence and development. The dysregulated proteins in the HCC/DN group were concentrated in the MAPK signalling and JAK-STAT signalling, but the dysregulated proteins in the AN/DN group were more concentrated in the basal material metabolism.
