« Je ne m’apitoie plus sur le fait1 » : homosexualité et engagement identitaire dans les écrits et prises de parole de Claude Vivier
Authors: Rhéaume Martine 
Published: May 2021

En 1991, la revueCircuitconsacre son numéro double du volume 2 au compositeur Claude Vivier (1948-1983), dont la majeure partie est constituée de ses écrits, remontant jusqu’à son adolescence. Mais alors que l’artiste s’identifiait ouvertement comme homosexuel, le thème est pratiquement absent des catégories d’écrits sélectionnés. Cet article se penche d’abord sur les choix éditoriaux qui ont présidé à l’édition de ses écrits, puis sur leurs conséquences sur la perception du personnage Claude Vivier et de son style musical, en souhaitant attirer l’attention sur d’autres prises de parole publiques et privées du compositeur, dans lesquelles ces aspects sont mis de l’avant, notamment sa correspondance et ses esquisses, disponibles en archives. En offrant des liens avec lesqueer studieset le traitement de l’homosexualité de Tchaïkovski, la personnalité et le style de Vivier seront éclairés d’un éventail plus large de ses propos.
“Isn’t That Life, in a Way: Trying to Accommodate Dissonance?” Reflections on Lesbianism and the Life and Music of Ann Southam
Authors: Bernstein Tamara 
Published: May 2021

Canadian composer Ann Southam (1937–2010) was a proud, outspoken, and generous feminist who found affinities between feminism and the minimalist musical language she developed in the late 1970s. At the same time, Southam was a very private person; it was only towards the end of her life that she began to speak on record about being gay. Music writer Tamara Bernstein, a friend of the composer, weighs the merits of focussing on this side of Southam’s life: the willingness with which Southam spoke in her final interviews about the difficulty of coming of age as a lesbian in the 1950s, and the fact that material related to this from her final interview has not been published until now; the importance of remembering how recently

lgbtq

rights were fully enshrined in Canadian law. Finally, alongside a caveat about the dangers of reductivism, and reminders that Southam found musical inspiration in other sources (e.g., nature), the author suggests ways in which Southam’s struggles with a sexual identity considered “dissonant” may have found their way into her music.

Dans le cadre d’une approche inductive et qualitative réalisée entre novembre 2020 et janvier 2021, nous avons collecté des données de discours sur le vécu et la réalité quotidienne de 55 professionnels des bibliothèques publiques et d’institutions d’enseignement supérieur relativement aux publics et à leurs usages des livres numériques en bibliothèque au Québec. Nous avons ensuite présenté nos analyses à certains d’entre eux pour discussion. Finalement, nous avons présenté notre ébauche d’analyse à deux experts, l’un dans le domaine de l’édition et l’autre dans les bibliothèques, afin d’en discuter avec eux.
Livres numériques et bibliothèques publiques en Europe francophone : quelle offre ?
Authors: Lemaire Alexandre 
Published: May 2021

En 2014 apparaissent en France les premières plateformes de prêt numérique du système PNB (Prêt numérique en bibliothèques). Le système est basé sur une architecture en étoile et les libraires indépendants font partie intégrante du projet.
Se sont posés rapidement des freins techniques (majoritairement liés au verrou numérique d’Adobe) et économiques (coût de l’infrastructure et des acquisitions). Le projet fait pourtant montre d’un caractère novateur, avec un modèle qui permet la simultanéité des prêts.
À ce jour, plus de 500 réseaux de bibliothèques ont rejoint le dispositif, notamment grâce aux espoirs qui reposent sur le nouveau verrou numérique « LCP » et aux négociations de l’association Réseau Carel, qui défend les intérêts des bibliothécaires. Des négociations économiques importantes demeurent néanmoins à mener, et un très grand groupe éditorial reste à convaincre de l’adoption de la simultanéité.
Le manque d’approche globale du projet initial a été partiellement comblé par l’ouverture du projet aux bibliothèques départementales de prêt, mais dont beaucoup hésitent encore à s’engager. Quant à lui, le réseau de lecture publique belge francophone suit, au sein de PNB, une approche coopérative originale qui permet à l’ensemble de sa population d’accéder au même catalogue global.
L’exercice des couvertures comme outil pédagogique pour mieux conscientiser les futures intervenantes et les futurs intervenants en travail social aux réalités autochtones
Authors: Lacroix Marie Émilie 
Published: May 2021

Cet article documente la façon dont l’exercice des couvertures a servi d’outil pédagogique pour sensibiliser les futures intervenantes et les futurs intervenants en travail social aux blessures historiques vécues par les Autochtones depuis l’arrivée des Européens en Amérique. L’exercice des couvertures est une expérience pédagogique permettant de revisiter l’histoire telle que vécue par les Premières Nations et transmise oralement à travers les époques. Le cercle de partage qui conclut l’expérience offre une ouverture sur la compréhension des injustices sociales liées aux enjeux politiques ainsi que l’adoption d’une attitude de collaboration.L’exercice des couvertures est analysé avec une approche expérientielle visant la sensibilisation/conscientisation, et ouvrant sur la réflexion et le pouvoir d’agir. Ce qui enrichit cette démarche, c’est la rencontre des Autochtones et des allochtones, parfois pour une première fois. L’éducation ressort comme le moyen de préparer cette rencontre et d’écrire ensemble un futur rafraîchi.Le changement qui crée l’espoir doit s’exprimer en actions posées au quotidien, ouvrant le sentier petit pas par petit pas à des alliances diverses.

Published: May 2021

Aim: The study's main objective was to assess patients' adherence towards treatment and daily practices among Hypertension (HT), Diabetes Mellitus (DM) Type II and hypothyroid participants in South India before and after providing counseling and education based on WHO standards.
Study Design: The present study is a prospective open-labeled observational study.
Place and Duration of the Study: The present study was conducted in Vijayawada, South India for six months.
Methodology: A total of 490 participants with Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus (Type II) and Hypothyroidism were assessed for adherence based on the Morisky medication adherence scale containing 8 points at the starting of the study and 6 months after providing counseling and education.
Results: At the initial point of study, only 12% of the Hypertensive group, 17% of Diabetes Mellitus (Type II) and 15% Hypothyroid group have high adherence. Towards the completion of the study, around 41% in the Hypertensive group, 50% of Diabetes Mellitus (Type II) and 60% Hypothyroid group had high adherence.
Conclusion: The adherence was low at the initial point of the study among all the three groups. After counseling and education provided through the World Health Organization (WHO) specified criteria, we have seen a good increase in the adherence, measured with the MMAS-8 scale. Greater efforts should be made in educating and counseling the patients suffering from such chronic illnesses to improve their quality of life.
Tunable Superparamagnetic Ring (tSPRing) for Droplet Manipulation
Authors: Nasirimarekani Vahid , Benito‐Lopez Fernando , Basabe‐Desmonts Lourdes 
Published: May 2021

AbstractThe manipulation of droplets via a magnetic field forms the basis of a fascinating technology that is currently in development. Often, the movement of droplets with magnets involves adding magnetic particles in or around the droplet; alternatively, magneto responsive surfaces may also be used. This work, presents and characterizes experimentally the formation and properties of a tunable superparamagnetic ring (tSPRing), which precisely adjusts itself around a water droplet, due to liquid–liquid interaction, and enables the physical manipulation of droplets. The ring is made of an oil‐based ferrofluid, a stable suspension of ferromagnetic particles in an oily phase. It appears spontaneously due to the oil–water interfacial interaction under the influence of a magnetic field. The ferrofluid–water interaction resembles a cupcake assembly, with the surrounding ring only at the base of the droplet. The ring is analogous to a soft matter ring magnet, showing dipole repulsive forces, which stabilizes the droplets on a surface. It enables robust, controllable, and programmable manipulation of enclosed water droplets. This work opens the door to new applications in open surface upside or upside‐down microfluidics and lays the groundwork for new studies on tunable interfaces between two immiscible liquids.

Published: May 2021

AbstractUnwanted protein adsorption deteriorates fouling processes and reduces analytical device performance. Wettability plays an important role in protein adsorption by affecting interactions between proteins and surfaces. However, the principles of protein adsorption are not completely understood, and surface coatings that exhibit resistance to protein adsorption and long‐term stability still need to be developed. Here, a nanostructured superamphiphilic TiO2 composite (TiO2/SiO2) coating that can effectively prevent nonspecific protein adsorption on water/solid interfaces is reported. The confined water on the superamphiphilic surface enables a low adhesion force and the formation of an energy barrier that plays a key role in preventing protein adsorption. This adaptive design protects the capillary wall from fouling in a harsh environment during the bioanalysis of capillary electrophoresis and is further extended to applications in multifunctional microfluidics for liquid transportation. This facile approach is not only perfectly applied in channels with complicated configurations but may also offer significant insights into the design of advanced superwetting materials to control biomolecule adhesion in biomedical devices, microfluidics, and biological assays.

AbstractRecently developed methods for transforming 2D patterns of thin‐film materials into 3D mesostructures create many interesting opportunities in microsystems design. A growing area of interest is in multifunctional thermal, electrical, chemical, and optical interfaces to biological tissues, particularly 3D multicellular, millimeter‐scale constructs, such as spheroids, assembloids, and organoids. Herein, examples of 3D mechanical interfaces are presented, in which thin ribbons of parylene‐C form the basis of transparent, highly compliant frameworks that can be reversibly opened and closed to capture, envelop, and mechanically restrain fragile 3D tissues in a gentle, nondestructive manner, for precise measurements of viscoelastic properties using techniques in nanoindentation. Finite element analysis serves as a design tool to guide selection of geometries and material parameters for shape‐matching 3D architectures tailored to organoids of interest. These computational approaches also quantitate all aspects of deformations during the processes of opening and closing the structures and of forces imparted by them onto the surfaces of enclosed soft tissues. Studies of cerebral organoids by nanoindentation show effective Young's moduli in the range from 1.5 to 2.5 kPa depending on the age of the organoid. This collection of results suggests broad utility of compliant 3D mesostructures in noninvasive mechanical measurements of millimeter‐scale, soft biological tissues.

AbstractNanochannels offer significant practical advantages in many fields due to their interesting characteristics, such as flexibility in shape and size, robustness, low‐cost and their ability to be modified based on the required applications. The effectiveness of ion separation in nanochannels can be assessed based on the selective transport of the desired ions and the rate of the transportation process. This paper aims to provide an extensive review of ion‐based nanochannels, including their working principles and ion‐selective behaviors. Nanochannel fabrication strategies and their applications are discussed. Key nanochannel design factors and their roles in governing ion‐selective transport are also reviewed. The contribution of size, charge, wettability, and recognition ability of the nanochannels on the selectivity mechanisms are discussed. Specific consideration is made to nanochannel applications in sensing and biosensing assays. Finally, an attempt is made to address the commercial implementation and future outlook of the nanochannels to guide researchers in emerging avenues of research.
The Effects of Localized Heat on the Hallmarks of Cancer

Published: May 2021

AbstractHeat has been used to treat tumors for thousands of years. There are reports of the Egyptians and Greek philosophers using such treatments as far back as 3000 BC and 500 BC respectively for various solid tumors. Albeit, in these cases, the treatment was not very controlled and consisted of hot sticks or blades placed against tissue in order to thermally ablate the tumor. It was not until recent times that the application of heat through various mediums enabled a more controlled, localized, and consistent method of treating tumors. While the therapeutic potential of this treatment has become more apparent, the mechanisms related to its efficacy are only recently beginning to surface. This review discusses the evidence associated with the effects of localized heat on the hallmarks of cancer. Key literature describing modulations to vasculature, cell viability, DNA damage and repair, metabolism, immune system, and tumor metastasis in response to heat will be reviewed along with considerations for its optimal implementation in the clinic to enhance the efficacy of conventional treatments.

AbstractSomatic cell reprogramming and tissue repair share relevant factors and molecular programs. Here, Dickkopf‐3 (DKK3) is identified as novel factor for organ regeneration using combined transcription‐factor‐induced reprogramming and RNA‐interference techniques. Loss of Dkk3 enhances the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells but does not affect de novo derivation of embryonic stem cells, three‐germ‐layer differentiation or colony formation capacity of liver and pancreatic organoids. However, DKK3 expression levels in wildtype animals and serum levels in human patients are elevated upon injury. Accordingly, Dkk3‐null mice display less liver damage upon acute and chronic failure mediated by increased proliferation in hepatocytes and LGR5+ liver progenitor cell population, respectively. Similarly, recovery from experimental pancreatitis is accelerated. Regeneration onset occurs in the acinar compartment accompanied by virtually abolished canonical‐Wnt‐signaling in Dkk3‐null animals. This results in reduced expression of the Hedgehog repressor Gli3 and increased Hedgehog‐signaling activity upon Dkk3 loss. Collectively, these data reveal Dkk3 as a key regulator of organ regeneration via a direct, previously unacknowledged link between DKK3, canonical‐Wnt‐, and Hedgehog‐signaling.

AbstractAir‐stable semiconducting inks suitable for complementary logic are key to create low‐power printed integrated circuits (ICs). High‐performance printable electronic inks with 2D materials have the potential to enable the next generation of high performance low‐cost printed digital electronics. Here, the authors demonstrate air‐stable, low voltage (<5 V) operation of inkjet‐printed n‐type molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and p‐type indacenodithiophene‐co‐benzothiadiazole (IDT‐BT) field‐effect transistors (FETs), estimating an average switching time of τMoS2 ≈ 4.1 μs for the MoS2 FETs. They achieve this by engineering high‐quality MoS2 and air‐stable IDT‐BT inks suitable for inkjet‐printing complementary pairs of n‐type MoS2 and p‐type IDT‐BT FETs. They then integrate MoS2 and IDT‐BT FETs to realize inkjet‐printed complementary logic inverters with a voltage gain |Av| ≈ 4 when in resistive load configuration and |Av| ≈ 1.4 in complementary configuration. These results represent a key enabling step towards ubiquitous long‐term stable, low‐cost printed digital ICs.
Simultaneous Enhancement of Actuation Strain and Mechanical Strength of Nanoporous Ni–Mn Actuators
Authors: Cheng Chuan , Lührs Lukas , Krekeler Tobias 
Published: May 2021

AbstractMetallic electrochemical actuators convert electrical energy into mechanical energy via charge‐induced strain at the nanoporous metal/electrolyte interface. To enhance the actuation amplitude, a general choice is to increase the electrode surface area to elevate the charge capacity. However, a large surface area is detrimental to the actuation stability and mechanical strength of the actuator, such as irreversible volume shrinkage due to surface coarsening. Here, this critical issue can be mitigated by introducing a secondary actuation metal (Mn) into the network of a primary actuation metal (Ni). A nanoporous Ni–Mn actuator is synthesized by chemical dealloying with a controllable Mn content by adjusting dealloying conditions. Mn enriched nanowires are entangled with much larger sized Ni nanoligaments throughout the whole nanoporous network. Mn contributes a two‐electron‐transfer redox of Mn(OH)2/MnOOH/MnO2, which induces reversible volume change via H+ intercalation/deintercalation. It is more efficient for strain generation than a one‐electron‐transfer redox of Ni(OH)2/NiOOH in the host. A recorded high reversible strain of 1.94% is obtained. Simultaneously, the mechanical strength of the actuator exponentially increases with the relative density due to the introduction of the secondary actuation metal.

AbstractFurrow‐irrigated rice (Oryza sativa L.) (FIR) has garnered increasing attention in Arkansas and across the Mid‐South, as more than 15% of Arkansas’ rice crop now utilizes furrow irrigation water management. Because of this recent interest, little data exists on FIR production management. Studies were conducted from 2018 to 2020 to determine the optimum nitrogen (N) management program for FIR production on clayey soils. Nine N management strategies were studied in 2018 and 2019, including one‐ to four‐way applications and several rates, with one additional approach in 2020. Five site‐years were utilized where grain yield, milling yield, and total nitrogen uptake (TNU) were examined. Grain and milling yield were consistently maximized with a three‐way split consisting of 84 kg N ha–1 at V5–V6 (pre‐irrigation), 84 kg N ha–1 2 wk later, and 52 kg N ha–1 1 wk after the second application. Grain yield averaged 10,307–12,585 kg ha–1 while head rice yield averaged 52.2–62.1% under the 84/0/84/52 kg N ha–1 split. Total N uptake was greatest where three to four applications and/or a higher total N rate were utilized across all years, while a two‐way split or greater maximized TNU in 2020 alone. Recovery efficiency of nitrogen (REn) and agronomic efficiency of nitrogen (AEn) were generally higher with a greater number of split applications. Average REn for the 84/0/84/52 kg N ha–1 split was 34.4–50.6%. Results suggest that an additional 52–67 kg N ha–1 and/or additional N applications are warranted to maximize FIR production on clayey soils compared to recommendations in a traditional flooded system.

AbstractFaba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivars for cover cropping have remained unchanged in the western United States over the past century. Although breeding efforts have improved grain production across much of the world, improvement of the crop for cover crop applications (e.g., biomass production at the flowering stage) remains understudied. Therefore, a trial of nine newly developed faba bean lines from the USDA‐ARS and four commercial checks (‘Bell Bean’, ‘V4’, ‘V5’, and ‘Windsor’) was established to evaluate cover crop traits across six diverse testing environments. The experiment revealed significant genotype × environment interactions for winter vigor, nitrogen (N) concentration, and aboveground N yield. Significant genotypic variation was observed for important cover crop traits including winter vigor, spring vigor, aboveground biomass, and aboveground N yield, whereas variation for percentage of N derived from the atmosphere was primarily determined by the testing environment. The study also identified a strong association between early plant vigor and aboveground biomass (r = .71), which offers potential increases in breeding efficiencies. In addition, advanced faba bean lines from the USDA‐ARS were shown to produce twice the biomass of Bell Bean across testing environments, and faba bean line PS18301 produced at least 20% more aboveground N yield in five out of the six environments than the conventionally used cover crop cultivars Windsor and Bell Bean. Faba bean lines in this study may be used by cover crop breeders as parent materials.
