Are type I dural arteriovenous fistulas safe? Single-centre experience
of endovascular treatment of dural arteriovenous fistulas
Authors: Brzozowski Krzysztof , Narloch Jerzy , Piasecki Piotr , Zięcina Piotr , Koziarski Andrzej 
Published: May 2019

IntroductionThere are mixed reports on the incidence of intracranial haemorrhage in patients with dural arteriovenous fistulas. We assessed new proposed risk factors (i.a. number of outflows and outflow diameter) of intracerebral haemorrhage due to intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula and presented our personal experience in endovascular treatment of dural arteriovenous fistulas.Material and methodsThe patient database from January 2006 and December 2016 was reviewed, and 25 patients with 28 dural arteriovenous fistulas were identified.Results50% of patients presented with intracerebral haemorrhage. Multiple dural fistulas occurred in 12% of patients. Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient revealed that there was a strong association between Cognard classification type and time needed to treat (r = 0.59, p < 0.05), as well as the volume of contrast used (r = 0.77, p < 0.05). Infratentorial (r = 0.53, p < 0.05) and right-sided (r = 0.66, p < 0.05) localisation were more challenging to treat. Bleeding was associated with poorer clinical outcome (r = 0.48, p < 0.05). No significant differences were found between the non-haemorrhagic group and the haemorrhagic group regarding the number of outflows (p = 0.459) and largest outflow diameter (p = 0.298). Clinical evaluation at follow-up was as follows: 56% of patients were asymptomatic, 24% had non-significant disability, maintaining independency, 16% had moderate disability, and 8% died – one in the course of intracerebral haemorrhage and one due to other sustained injuries. There were no reported embolisation- related complications.ConclusionsTo conclude, regardless of presentation, both symptomatic and asymptomatic dural arteriovenous fistulas deserve clinical attention, structured evaluation, and follow-up. Type I fistulas were associated with haemorrhage in 1/3 of all cases. Overall our results indicate that the risk of haemorrhage and dire consequences is multifactorial.

Abstract

‘As in a view from afar’. Vondel’s epistemological objections to Spinoza’s circle

From a philosophical and theological stance, Spinoza and Vondel are traditionally portrayed as downright antipodes. Whereas Spinoza is seen as a pre-eminent representative of ‘radical Enlightenment’, Vondel is generally considered as a rather reactionary author who does not fit at all in this radical version of Enlightenment. The central aim of this article is to modify this generally agreed perception. On the basis of recent historical research in the relation between the circle of Spinoza and Vondel, the affinities between both authors can be brought to the fore, in particular when looking at their writings on the relation between politics and religion. The gap between their views becomes only apparent when their respective views of God are at stake: there is an undeniable contrast between Spinoza’s naturalist pantheism and Vondel’s classic theism. In order to understand that very difference, the focus will be laid on two writings, conceived in more or less the same period: Vondel’s philosophical-theological poem Bespieghelingen van Godt en Godsdienst and Spinoza’s Verhandeling over de verbetering van het verstand (Treatise on the Emendation of Understanding). The central difference between the two authors in these writings relates to their methodological approach of existential questions about God and salvation, in particular to their dissent concerning the epistemological role of the geometrical method and the specific role of language. One of the hypotheses I propound in this respect is that Vondel’s relation to Lodewijk Meyer has been of utmost importance in order to explain their different methodological positions. Finally, I indicate the topical relevance of this methodological difference for contemporary philosophical reflection.
Anne Frank in de DDR en Rusland
Authors: Missinne Lut , Michajlova Irina 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
The Diary of Anne Frank, written between 1942 and 1944 while she was in hiding with her family in Amsterdam, has been translated in more than 70 languages. Not only the editorial history but also the history of the translations and the reception of Anne Frank’s Diary abroad are complex stories. In this article we will outline how the German translation in the fifties – first in West Germany in 1950 and seven years later in the German Democratic Republic – functioned as a transit port for the Russian translation that came out in 1960. Furthermore we will illustrate how both the history of the East German and the Russian publication bear traces of the political and ideological context in which they came into being and how they are marked by their respective specific memory culture.
Therefore we investigate the first West German translation made by a non-professional translator and the Russian translation from 1960, the role of the reviews (Gutachten), prefaces and afterwords, and we read these against the backdrop of the political and historical developments. Also, the role of adaptations comes up: the Broadway theatrical production staged in West and East Germany in 1956 helped spread the story of Anne Frank amongst German readers, while in the Soviet Union it was the book publication of her Diary that inspired poets and composers.
Tussen informatie en ideologie
Authors: Eickmans Heinz 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
In the so-called ‘Leseland DDR’ anthologies of foreign literature played an exceptionally important part in making available foreign texts and in disclosing new literary worlds to the GDR reading public. Moreover, these anthologies could function as a proving ground for introducing new authors and literary schools without censorial objection.
The anthologies contain peritexts by the publisher or editor – mainly blurbs and afterwords – that focus on the representative and innovative character of the texts and inform about the selection of authors, the general themes and content, the aesthetic quality and – in case of anthologies from western countries – provide critical remarks on the condemnable developments in capitalist societies.
In this article I investigate and compare four GDR anthologies of literature from the Netherlands and Flanders, all published between 1976 and 1984. This will make clear that the ideological comments after the cultural and political ‘Wende’ in the GDR at the beginning of the seventies can no longer be considered obligatory bows for the censorial authorities.
Northern Hemisphere continental winter warming following the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption: reconciling models and observations
Authors: Polvani Lorenzo M. , Banerjee Antara , Schmidt Anja 
Published: May 2019

Abstract. It has been suggested, and is widely believed, that the anomalous surface warming observed over
the Northern Hemisphere continents in the winter following the 1991 eruption of Mt. Pinatubo was,
in fact, caused by that eruption, via a stratospheric pathway that involves a strengthening of the
polar vortex. However, most studies that have examined multiple, state-of-the-art, coupled
climate models report that, in the ensemble mean, the models do not show winter warming after the
Mt. Pinatubo eruption. This lack of surface warming in the multi-model mean, concomitant with a
frequent lack of strengthening of the polar vortex, is often interpreted as a failure of the
models to reproduce the observations. In this paper we show that this interpretation is
erroneous, as averaging many simulations from different models, or from the same model, is not
expected to yield surface anomalies similar to the observed ones, even if the models were highly
accurate, owing to the presence of strong internal variability. We here analyze three large ensembles of state-of-the-art, coupled climate model simulations and
show that, in all three, many individual ensemble members are able to produce post-Pinatubo
surface warming in winter that is comparable to the observed one. This establishes that
current-generation climate models are perfectly capable of reproducing the observed surface
post-eruption warming. We also confirm the bulk of previous studies, and show that the surface
anomaly is not statistically different from zero when averaged across ensembles of
simulations, which we interpret as the simple fact that the volcanic impact on continental winter
temperatures is tiny compared to internal variability. We also carefully examine the stratospheric pathway in our models and, again confirming previous
work, show that any strengthening of the polar vortex caused by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption is very
small (of the order of a few meters per second at best). Such minuscule anomalies of the stratospheric
circulation are completely overwhelmed by the tropospheric variability at midlatitudes, which is
known to be very large: this explains the lack of surface winter warming in the ensemble means. In summary, our analysis and interpretation offer compelling new evidence that the observed
warming of the Northern Hemisphere continents in the winter 1991–1992 was very likely unrelated to
the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption.
Suplementación de cobayos (Cavia porcellus L.) con follajes fresco de morera (Morus alba) y moringa (Moringa oleifera)
Authors: Reyes-Sánchez Nadir , Vivas Jerry , Aguilar Jorge , Hernández Janin , Caldera Norlan 
Published: May 2019

Se realizó este experimento para evaluar la suplementación alimenticia para cobayos (Cavia porcellus L.) con follaje fresco de Moringa oleifere y Morus alba (Morera) y su efecto sobre el comportamiento productivo. Se utilizaron 18 cobayos mestizos de 30 días de edad, con un peso vivo inicial promedio de 175.8 gramos. Se distribuyeron en un diseño completamente al azar en tres tratamientos, con seis repeticiones. Los tratamientos evaluados fueron tres: 1) concentrado comercial (CC) a voluntad + follaje fresco de CT-115, 2) 70% CC + follaje fresco de Morera y 3) 70% CC + follaje fresco de Moringa. Los resultados indican que la alimentación de cobayos con 70% de CC y suplementados con follaje fresco de Morera o Moringa no afectan significativamente el comportamiento productivo (peso vivo, ganancia de peso y conversión alimenticia), en comparación con cobayos alimentados con CC a voluntad + CT-115. La alimentacion de cobayos con 70% de CC + follaje fresco de Moringa o 70% de CC + follaje fresco de Morera, al reducir los costos de producción, generan mayor beneficio financiero que utilizar CC a voluntad + CT-115, siendo la ración 70% de CC + follaje fresco de Moringa la que genera mayor ventaja financiera.
Brokering Servitude: Migration and the Politics of Domestic Labor During the Long Nineteenth Century
Authors: May Vanessa 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Historians have long noted the exploitation of domestic workers in different times and places. They have also demonstrated the occupation’s embeddedness in American racial and gendered hierarchies. In his dense new book, Andrew Urban places the history of domestic work in transnational scope, tying together the histories of different groups of workers over time and space. He argues that domestic employment brokers commodified immigrant and migrant labor, calling on and adding to cultural narratives of these workers as racially fit for servitude. Domestic work, meanwhile, offered a way to govern what many Americans viewed as unruly populations: single immigrant women, Chinese immigrants, and black southern migrants. In explaining how particular workers were channeled into domestic service positions and then compelled to stay, Urban complicates ideas about “free labor” that late nineteenth-century Americans held so sacred.
The influence of bowel preparation on postoperative complications in surgical treatment of colorectal cancer
Authors: Małek Zbigniew , Małek Piotr , Dziki Łukasz 
Published: May 2019

Introduction
Colorectal cancer is the most common gastrointestinal cancer treated by departments and surgical clinics in Poland. Currently, the biggest challenge of surgery is to reduce the number of leaks in the bowel anastomoses and postoperative wound infections to a minimum.

Objective
Whether bowel preparation before surgery affects the early results of treatment?

Methods
The study was retrospective and included patients operated electively on one surgical center due to colorectal and rectal cancer in years 2013-2018. Patients who underwent surgery were divided into two groups in the study. The first was 109 patients with mechanical bowel irrigation. The second group of 118 patients, in addition to mechanical bowel preparation, received an oral antibiotic.

Results
The studied groups did not differ significantly in terms of traits that could affect the results of treatment within 30 days of surgery. Postoperative mortality was 0,9% and 0,85%. Complications: leakage of the bowel anastomosis 1,8% and 1,7%, postoperative obstruction 3,7% and 5,0%, wound dehiscence 2,75% and 0,85%, infection of the surgical site 13,8% and 3,4% respectively in the first and second group of patients.

Conclusion
1.	Mechanical bowel preparation in combination with the oral supply of antibiotic significantly reduces the frequency of surgical site infection compared to the mechanical rinsing itself.
2.	Type of preparation of the intestine before the surgery does not significantly affect postoperative mortality and other complications, including anastomotic leak, but may be important for the frequency of postoperative wound dehiscence.
A educação ambiental como instrumento de conscientização e sensibilização no uso adequado dos agrotóxicos

Published: May 2019

O uso consciente dos agrotóxicos é de extrema importância para melhor rendimento da produção agrícola e preservação dos recursos renováveis, do meio ambiente e saúde humana. É importante que a sociedade, e principalmente os produtores, tomem os devidos cuidados durante a utilização dos agrotóxicos, para que não haja contaminação dos alimentos, do ambiente, dos agricultores e consumidores. Conhecer a percepção do risco, por parte da população exposta é importante para desenvolver propostas de intervenção sobre o problema junto à comunidade, através de ações de conscientização sobre os riscos associados ao uso indiscriminado destes produtos, ou seja, ao uso incorreto e durante longo prazo. O trabalho teve como objetivo, identificar e analisar o nível de conhecimento da comunidade rural do distrito Santa Maria, na cidade de Areia - PB, a respeito do uso indiscriminado dos agrotóxicos e realizar intervenções, através da Educação Ambiental, que permitissem o uso correto dessas substâncias pela comunidade. O trabalho foi realizado em duas etapas, com agricultores do Distrito Santa Maria. A primeira etapa ocorreu com aplicação de questionários semiestruturados e posteriormente, com base nas respostas dos questionários, foram realizadas intervenções através de oficinas e debates junto à comunidade. A maioria dos entrevistados (96%) é analfabeta ou possui apenas o ensino fundamental incompleto, acentuando a dificuldade na leitura e compreensão das instruções das embalagens. Os agrotóxicos utilizados pelos agricultores são do tipo herbicida, principalmente glifosato. Estes produtos são adquiridos em vendas não autorizadas, sem a apresentação do receituário agronômico. O descarte das embalagens é feito de maneira incorreta, sem a devolução as centrais de recolhimento. 37,7% dos entrevistados afirmaram não utilizar os equipamentos de proteção individual. Os que utilizam (62,3%) afirmaram não fazer de forma correta. Apenas 19% disseram ler os rótulos das embalagens, porém, nem todos compreendem o que é lido, devido seu teor técnico. As intervenções realizadas com os agricultores colaboraram para o repasse de informações, além de compartilhar experiências e exemplos que pudessem ser utilizadas como ferramenta de sensibilização sobre uso adequado dos agrotóxicos. A Educação ambiental foi um mecanismo importante na realização deste trabalho, trazendo luz as questões não apenas ambientais como também políticas e sociais.

Perceptions par les élèves du climat de soutien en mathématiques : validation d’échelles et étude des différences selon le genre en 5e secondaire
Authors: Jaegers Doriane , Lafontaine Dominique 
Published: May 2019

Cette étude vise à valider des échelles en langue française destinées à mesurer les perceptions qu’ont les élèves de 5e secondaire (16 ans) du climat de soutien dans leur classe de mathématiques. Se basant sur la théorie de l’autodétermination (Deci et Ryan, 2000a, 2000b) et, plus spécifiquement, sur la satisfaction des trois besoins fondamentaux, les échelles utilisées étayent le troisième pilier du modèle tridimensionnel d’un enseignement de qualité de Klieme et ses collaborateurs (2006). Les résultats d’analyses factorielles exploratoires et confirmatoires ont abouti à quatre échelles dont les qualités psychométriques sont satisfaisantes. La présente recherche examine également les différences de perceptions du climat de soutien en mathématiques en fonction du genre. Si aucune différence n’est trouvée pour trois échelles, les analyses indiquent que, de manière significative, les filles perçoivent davantage l’implication de leur enseignant que les garçons, et ce, même sous contrôle du niveau socioéconomique et des performances en mathématiques.
Pratique, formation et recherche : l’espoir d’un dialogue
Authors: St-Arnaud Yves 
Published: May 2019

Les termes science-action et praxéologie désignent une nouvelle approche qui, depuis vingt ans, contribue à renouveler les rapports entre la pratique, la formation et la recherche. L’analyse des difficultés rencontrées par des centaines de praticiens qui se sont initiés à la méthode de réflexion-sur-l’action, dans une démarche de praxéologie, conduit à la découverte d’un facteur important pour expliquer les difficultés du dialogue entre la pratique, la formation et la recherche : l’absence d’un discours valide sur la pratique. Quatre difficultés majeures que rencontrent les praticiens qui veulent nommer ce qu’ils font réellement, dans leur pratique, sont présentées et analysées. Suit une discussion quant aux conséquences pour le dialogue recherché.
« Le sentiment dont nous parlons »
Authors: Thomson Clive 
Published: May 2019

Georges Hérelle (1848-1935) est bien connu, de son vivant, pour ses excellentes traductions en français de l’oeuvre de l’écrivain italien Gabriele D’Annunzio et pour ses travaux d’érudition sur le théâtre populaire basque. Dans notre étude récente, Georges Hérelle : archéologue de l’inversion sexuelle « fin de siècle » (Paris, Éditions du Félin, 2014), nous avons insisté sur l’important rôle qu’il a joué comme historien et surtout archiviste de l’homosexualité, en examinant son journal intime, ses notes de voyage, ses albums de photographies et ses manuscrits inédits. Se caractérisant comme « timide et un peu sauvage », Hérelle avoue, dans son journal intime, « sa crainte d’être indiscret ». Il décide, très jeune, de mener une double vie. Dans le contexte de sa longue carrière de professeur de philosophie, il conserve l’image publique d’un homme convenable et modeste. C’est une question de survie, dit-il, parce qu’il est entouré d’une société extrêmement hostile et intolérante. Par ailleurs, il fréquente discrètement dans sa vie privée un tout petit groupe d’amis homosexuels. Dans l’article présent, nous abordons un nouvel objet d’étude, à savoir les lettres des années 1860 et 1870 qu’Hérelle a adressées à Paul Bourget et à d’autres amis intimes. Hérelle et ses amis se racontent les menus détails de leur vie quotidienne, mais aussi leurs aventures amoureuses, pensées intimes et ambitions littéraires. Ces jeunes gens sont à la recherche d’un langage qui leur permettrait de décrire avec précision la nature de leurs sentiments amoureux. Notre analyse révèle une image singulièrement riche de la vie homosexuelle à un moment historique précis – les premières années de la Troisième République – pour lequel il existe très peu de témoignages autobiographiques d’homosexuels.

Source–Sink Relationships
Authors: Burnett Angela C 
Published: May 2019

Abstract

Life on earth depends on the growth and survival of plants. In order for plants to grow and develop effectively, coordination between sources and sinks is required. Source organs provide a net uptake of resources whilst sink organs have a net drawdown of resources. Molecular mechanisms regulate the relationship between sources and sinks. These molecular mechanisms include carbon‐ and nitrogen‐containing metabolites, plant hormones and genes. Sources and sinks for both carbon and nitrogen are key contributors to plant growth, and these regulate themselves and one another via feedback, feedforward and crosstalk mechanisms. Our understanding of the relationships between sources and sinks is increased by experimental manipulations of the source–sink balance. To bring about increases in crop growth and yield, a holistic view of sources and sinks must be developed, including the molecular mechanisms underpinning the relationships between them. Mathematical modelling can be an effective tool for providing this unified perspective.

Key Concepts

Sources have net uptake of a resource and sinks have net utilisation of a resource.

Plant growth is underpinned by sources and sinks.

Sources and sinks for both carbon and nitrogen are vital components of plant development.

Molecular mechanisms including metabolites, genes and phytohormones regulate the source–sink balance.

An understanding of source:sink relationships can help improve crop yield.
