Le personnage de la Finlandaise dans le récit Parmi les falaises (1924) de Maria Boretskaïa, au prisme de la tradition littéraire
Authors: Simonova Olga A. 
Published: December 2024

L’article s’intéresse à la tradition de la description des Finnoises dans la littérature russe. Elle se divise en deux sous‑types. Le premier, formé par les écrivains réalistes russes, est la Tchoukhonka, un personnage lié à la rationalité et à la volonté d’indépendance, mais doté d’un mauvais caractère. Le second, beaucoup plus éphémère, est un personnage de Finnoise associé à la nature et formé dans la poésie des romantiques et des symbolistes. Dans son récit Parmi les falaises (1924), l’écrivaine bolchevique Maria Boretskaïa a créé un personnage de Finlandaise détaché de ces connotations. Son héroïne construit une identité bolchevique et maternelle.
Traduire la xéno-encyclopédie en finnois et en français : une approche pragmatique
Authors: Carayol Martin 
Published: December 2024

La traduction des néologismes revêt une importance particulière dans les œuvres de science-fiction, où ils sont souvent abondants en raison de leur rôle dans l’élaboration de la « xéno-encylopédie », l’ensemble des connaissances relatives au monde fictif construit par l’œuvre. Confronté à l’inventivité lexicale de l’auteur, le traducteur peut se retrouver en difficulté face à la nécessité de trouver un équivalent aussi proche que possible de l’original. Cet article examine les traductions finnoises et françaises des nombreux termes xéno-encyclopédiques (néologismes, néosèmes et noms propres) qui se trouvent dans cinq nouvelles de Jack Vance et deux cycles de Michael Moorcock, afin de catégoriser ces traductions sur une base pragmatique, en fonction du différentiel entre l’effet sur le lecteur dans la langue originale et l’effet en traduction. Les termes xéno-encyclopédiques traduits peuvent avoir le même sens et les mêmes connotations que l’original, ou diverger par leur sens, leur registre, leur connotation, etc. Dans certains cas, le traducteur renonce à traduire les néologismes, et dans d’autres au contraire il arrive que le traducteur introduise des néologismes.
« Traduit du riddleyspeak (Anterre) par Nicolas Richard » : quand le traducteur se fait lecteur de science-fiction
Authors: Després Elaine 
Published: December 2024

Riddley Walker (1980) de l’auteur britannique d’origine américaine Russell Hoban est devenu un roman de science-fiction postapocalyptique culte au fil des années, et la langue dans laquelle il est écrit, le riddleyspeak, n’y est pas étrangère. Véritable novum science-fictionnel, cette langue-fiction défamiliarisane (Sorlin, 2010) mélangeant l’anglais et le cockney, l’écrit et l’oral, le passé et l’avenir, la religion et la science a donné au roman la réputation d’être intraduisible. Or, avec Enig Marcheur (2012), Nicolas Richard réalise une véritable traduction science-fictionnelle et poétique en « parlénigm ». Cet article propose de montrer que la proposition du traducteur enrichit et complexifie la xénoencyclopédie du roman de Hoban plutôt qu’elle la remplace, l’amenant presque du côté de la transfictionnalité (Saint-Gelais, 2011) : les personnages et le récit sont reconnaissables, mais ils existent dans un monde fictionnel et linguistique différent, moins familier encore. Grâce aux outils d’analyse développés par Alice Ray (2019), il s’agit d’explorer ce novum qu’est le « parlénigm » par une analyse comparée des textes, des techniques employés par le traducteur, des effets produits, et d’autres exemples de traduction de langues-fiction.
Le cas étrange de “Moreau” devient plus étrange
Authors: Philmus Robert M. 
Published: December 2024

Lorsque j’ai écrit, dans le cinquantième numéro de SFS, sur les révisions assez radicales faites par Wells après la publication originale de Moreau, j’ignorais que le texte dans lequel il les inscrivait (un exemplaire de l’édition coloniale de 1896) était lui-même la base d’une traduction française effectuée par Henry D.-Davray. La date de parution de L’Île du Docteur Moreau, traduit par Davray, prouve que cette transformation du texte par Wells prédate l’année 1900. Pour rendre notre affaire plus étrange encore, Davray déclarera plus tard que Wells souhaitait incorporer ses modifications dans de futures éditions en langue anglaise.

Authors: Moosa Aqeela , Variava Ebrahim , Calver Alistair D. , Chita Gajendra , Sabet Nadia , Ngwenya Sharol , Papathanasopoulos Maria , Omar Tanvier 
Published: December 2024

Background: Liver disease is the leading cause of non-AIDS-related mortality in people living with HIV (PLWH). Steatotic liver disease (SLD) is increasingly recognised as an important aetiological factor in liver dysfunction in PLWH.Objectives: This study aimed to determine the post-mortem prevalence and severity of SLD and determine HIV- and non-HIV-related risk factors associated with it.Method: We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study in which liver histology from 59 deceased people who were infected with HIV was assessed for steatosis, and findings correlated with clinical, epidemiological, and biochemical data.Results: Decedents were predominantly men (33/59); 63% (37/59) were virologically supressed. Median CD4+ T-cell count was 139 cells/µL (interquartile range [IQR]: 47–344). Steatosis was present in 39% (23/59) of decedents: 74% mild, 9% moderate, and 17% severe steatosis. There were no cases of steatohepatitis, and one case with mild fibrosis. Factors associated with SLD were: CD4 T-lymphocyte count 200 cells/µL (odds ratio [OR]: 3.69; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.19–11.44), female sex (OR: 8.5; 95% CI: 2.57–28.17), hypertension (OR: 6.5; 95% CI: 2.05–21.00), and being normal or overweight (OR: 6.75; 95% CI: 1.12–40.56). Virological suppression and duration of antiretroviral drug use were not associated with steatosis.Conclusion: We found a high proportion of SLD with heterogeneous causes in deceased people who were infected with HIV, exceeding previously reported prevalences from elsewhere in Africa. A preserved CD4 count and being female conferred the highest risk for steatosis, underscoring the need for screening in this subgroup and further research to delineate risks in a Southern African population.

Abstract

Background:
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, posing a signiferant public health challenge. Health-care providers, the cornerstone of health-care delivery systems, are not exempt from this risk. Understanding their cardiovascular risk factor (CVRF) profile is crucial for promoting their health and well-being.

Objectives:
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of various CVRFs among healthcare professionals working at a large private health institution in Vietnam. We sought to identify potential disparities in CVRF distribution across different occupational groups within the health-care workforce.

Methods:
Health-care staff members (n = 1314) were invited to participate in comprehensive health screenings. Self-reported questionnaires and standardized protocols were used to assess various CVRFs, including dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and smoking status. This investigation employed a cross-sectional study design. Data collection occurred during a single point in time (September 2023) at Vinmec Times City Hospital, a prominent private specialty hospital situated in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Results:
The study revealed a concerning prevalence of CVRFs among health-care providers. A significant proportion of participants displayed elevated levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, with service staff demonstrating the highest prevalence. A notable percentage of participants had high blood pressure (BP) and were overweight or obese. A gender disparity emerged, with males exhibiting higher systolic BP and body mass index compared to females.

Conclusions:
This study highlights a substantial burden of CVRFs among healthcare professionals in Vietnam, particularly within the service staff category. Targeted interventions aimed at promoting healthy lifestyle practices and CVD risk management strategies are necessary to safeguard the cardiovascular health of this crucial workforce.
Comparison of periapical parallel radiography with cbct with different field of views (FOV) for the detection of periapical lesions

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Chronic apical periodontitis (AP) may influence the outcome of root canal treatment. Thus, it is important to diagnose AP using the best method available. This research was done to compare the diagnostic accuracy of parallel periapical radiography (PR) and different field of views (FOVs) of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Materials and Methods:
This ex vivo study was done on six human mandibles. After extraction of the teeth, periapical lesions with different sizes were prepared randomly by drilling a hole at the base of the socket using a bur. From among 67 sockets, 21 sockets had no lesion (control); then, all mandibles were scanned by CBCT with different FOVs and paralleling periapical technique radiography. The images were assessed by two examiners. The quantitative data were analyzed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the qualitative data were analyzed by McNemar’s test (α = 0.05). Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were calculated. Inter-observer agreement was assessed using kappa statistics for qualitative data and ICC for quantitative data.

Results:
The quantitative scores were compared with the gold standard using ICC, which showed maximum agreement for the dental FOV of CBCT (93.3) and minimum agreement for PR (62.5) (P < 0.001). For qualitative data, maximum agreement was found for the dental FOV of CBCT (97.1%), and minimum agreement was reported for PR (59.7%). Kappa values were variable between 0.271 and 0.924 (P < 0.001). Maximum sensitivity was found for the dental FOV of CBCT (96%) and minimum sensitivity was observed for PR (51%). The inter-observer agreement was 0.922 for qualitative data and 0.90 for quantitative data (P < 0.001). There were no significant differences between CBCT with different FOVs and defect sizes (gold standard) while we found significant differences for periapical by defect sizes.

Conclusion:
CBCT with dental FOV presents the highest sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy for detection and characterization of simulated AP.
A Cross-sectional Study to Assess the Association of Minor Criteria of Hannifin and Rajka with Age and Gender in Pediatric Atopic Dermatitis Population
Authors: Bansal Garima , Bansal Rishi 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background:
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic relapsing dermatitis characterized by intense itching. Hanifin and Rajka criteria are the most commonly used diagnostic criteria in hospital setup, consisting of 4 major and 23 minor criteria.

Objectives:
The objective of the study was to estimate the frequency of distribution of Hanifin and Rajka minor criteria in the pediatric age group, to assess the association of age with minor criteria of AD, and to assess the association of gender with minor criteria of AD.

Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional study of 150 pediatric patients (≤16 years) was conducted in the department of dermatology, who were diagnosed with AD based on history and clinical and ophthalmological examination. Serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) was also assessed. The age and gender analysis were done using a Chi-square test.

Results:
The most common clinical features were orbital darkening 133 (88.7%), Dennie–Morgan infraorbital fold 126 (84%), xerosis 102 (68%), keratosis pilaris 101 (67.3%), and hyperlinear palm 98 (65%). Serum IgE was elevated in 26%. The majority presented with high readings with no obvious keratoconus. Male children (88%) presented predominantly with orbital darkening (90.9%) and had an exacerbation in winters (18.2%) in comparison to females (62%) P ≤ 0.05. Children >1 year (141%) presented mostly with keratosis pilaris (71.6%), nonspecific hand-foot dermatitis (49.6%), and facial erythema (34.8%) than in infants (9%) P ≤ 0.05.

Conclusion:
Minor criteria are useful for the diagnosis of AD. Male children are more affected and manifest with orbital darkening with Dennie–Morgan infraorbital fold as the chief clinical finding in both the groups. Factors such as ethnic/racial, environmental, and diet have a role in AD.
A strengthening of McConnel’s theorem on permutations over finite fields
Authors: Yip Chi Hoi 
Published: December 2024

AbstractLet p be a prime,
$q=p^n$
, and
$D \subset \mathbb {F}_q^*$
. A celebrated result of McConnel states that if D is a proper subgroup of
$\mathbb {F}_q^*$
, and
$f:\mathbb {F}_q \to \mathbb {F}_q$
is a function such that
$(f(x)-f(y))/(x-y) \in D$
whenever
$x \neq y$
, then
$f(x)$
necessarily has the form
$ax^{p^j}+b$
. In this notes, we give a sufficient condition on D to obtain the same conclusion on f. In particular, we show that McConnel’s theorem extends if D has small doubling.
Theory of Didactical Situations and proof situations : analysis of two examples
Authors: Ouvrier-Buffet Cécile 
Published: December 2024

The framework of the theory of didactical situations is based on &quot;experimental epistemology&quot;. It allows us to question mathematics and learning situations. This text will present mathematical and experimental tools derived from this theory for thinking about a typology of situations for didactic use. In particular, it will focus on didactic variables and proof situations. Two examples will illustrate these aspects. From the fields of game theory on the one hand and number theory on the other, these examples will be discussed and revisited: the Race to 20 and the Frobenius problem.Le cadre de la théorie des situations didactiques s’est construit dans des travaux « d’épistémologie expérimentale ». Il permet d’interroger les mathématiques et les situations d’apprentissage. Ce texte présentera les moyens mathématiques et expérimentaux issus de cette théorie pour penser une typologie de situations à usage didactique. Un focus sera fait en particulier sur les variables didactiques et les situations de preuve. Deux exemples permettront d’illustrer ces aspects. Issus des domaines de la théorie des jeux d'une part et de la théorie des nombres d'autre part, ils seront discutés et revisités : la Course à 20 et le problème de Frobenius.

Published: December 2024

Pakistan is among the countries most affected by climate change, facing loss of life and property due to flooding caused by cataclysmic rains across the country each year. In response to the catastrophic flooding in 2022, The Heritage Foundation Pakistan initiated the “1000 Household’s Project”, to help mitigate the impact of climate change using the eco-village model as a potential solution. The project focused on the articulation of strategies catering to the social fabric and economic uplift through empowerment and by providing skills training and localized, adaptable solutions. By using the 1000 Households project as a case study, this paper has attempted to analyze the effectiveness of the eco-village model as a potential solution to achieving climate resilience in marginalized communities. The research findings also provided a framework for implementation in the event of future disasters in such areas, which can help build a more resilient and sustainable future.
