Nonlinear Decay of Alfvén Waves Driven by Interplaying Two- and Three-dimensional Nonlinear Interactions
Authors: Zhao J. S. , Voitenko Y. , Keyser J. De , Wu D. J. 
Published: April 2018

Abstract
We study the decay of Alfvén waves in the solar wind, accounting for the joint operation of two-dimensional (2D) scalar and three-dimensional (3D) vector nonlinear interactions between Alfvén and slow waves. These interactions have previously been studied separately in long- and short-wavelength limits where they lead to 2D scalar and 3D vector decays, correspondingly. The joined action of the scalar and vector interactions shifts the transition between 2D and 3D decays to significantly smaller wavenumbers than was predicted by Zhao et al. who compared separate scalar and vector decays. In application to the broadband Alfvén waves in the solar wind, this means that the vector nonlinear coupling dominates in the extended wavenumber range 5 × 10−4 ≲ ρ

i

k
0⊥ ≲ 1, where the decay is essentially 3D and nonlocal, generating product Alfvén and slow waves around the ion gyroscale. Here ρ

i
is the ion gyroradius, and k
0⊥ is the pump Alfvén wavenumber. It appears that, except for the smallest wavenumbers at and below

in Channel I, the nonlinear decay of magnetohydrodynamic Alfvén waves propagating from the Sun is nonlocal and cannot generate counter-propagating Alfvén waves with similar scales needed for the turbulent cascade. Evaluation of the nonlinear frequency shift shows that product Alfvén waves can still be approximately described as normal Alfvénic eigenmodes. On the contrary, nonlinearly driven slow waves deviate considerably from normal modes and are therefore difficult to identify on the basis of their phase velocities and/or polarization.

Published: April 2018

Introduction: The article focuses on the early manifestations of adverse side effects in children with nephrotic syndrome receiving glucocorticosteroids. The search for criteria of early side effect manifestations is a real challenge nowadays. The authors developed new diagnostic criteria for early detection of pharmacotherapeutical side effects in children with nephrotic syndrome.
Objective: The aim of the study was to develop integral quantitative diagnostic criteria for early detection of side effects of glucocorticosteroids when treating nephrotic syndrome in children.
Materials and Methods: The study included 58 in-patients, aged 1-18. All the children had been thoroughly examined and their parameters had been investigated: height and body mass by calculating Z-scores (WHO ANTHRO Plus) and body mass index (BMI), a biochemical blood test, a full blood count by studying the total number of leukocytes, the percentage of neutrophils and monocytes in peripheral blood, systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Results and Discussion: The parameters that changed in the patients with nephrotic syndrome taking corticosteroids are referred to as diagnostic criteria. They included leukocytes, neutrophils and monocytes parameters in the full blood count, blood glucose and amylase level, patients’ body mass, BMI, systolic and diastolic arterial pressure. The authors defined the change range of the parameters under study in the children with nephrotic syndrome based on the obtained findings.
Conclusion: The authors conclude that application of the developed indices will make it possible to diagnose early metabolic, cardio-vascular and immunologic changes in patients with nephrotic syndrome taking glucocorticoids and perform their individual pharmacological correction in a timely manner.
Travail domestique : des classes populaires conservatrices ?
Authors: Cartier Marie , Letrait Muriel , Sorin Matéo 
Published: April 2018

Cet article étudie la façon dont hommes et femmes des classes populaires perçoivent l’inégale répartition des tâches domestiques et y réagissent. En mobilisant à la fois des données statistiques et dix-sept monographies de couples hétérosexuels avec enfants, il défend l’idée que la période historique qui va des années 1980 jusqu’à nos jours se caractérise moins par la permanence d’un attachement positif des classes populaires à une stricte division des rôles sexués, que par une lente différenciation des conceptions en matière de travail domestique à l’intérieur même de ces classes. L’attachement à une stricte division sexuée du travail vaut surtout pour leurs strates les plus précaires. Les ménages stabilisés des classes populaires s’en détachent à travers la participation, certes modeste mais accrue, des hommes ouvriers et employés aux tâches domestiques mais aussi à travers la mise en question du déséquilibre domestique par les femmes.
Clinical Outcomes of Endovascular Thrombectomy in Tissue Plasminogen Activator versus Non-Tissue Plasminogen Activator Patients at Primary Stroke Care Centers
Authors: Imbarrato Gregory , Bentley Joshua , Gordhan Ajeet 
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT
Background: The effect of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV tPA) administration before endovascular intervention as compared to without at thrombectomy-capable low-volume centers on procedural aspects and patient outcomes has not been investigated. Methods: Retrospective chart review was performed in all consecutive large vessel cerebrovascular accident patients treated with endovascular therapy at two select rural primary stroke centers between 2011 and 2015. Patients’ data regarding age, sex, and medical history, as well as thrombus location by catheter-based cerebral angiography, postprocedural reperfusion status, and clinical outcomes were reviewed. The primary outcome measure of the study was a comparison of modified Rankin scale (MRS) at 90 days in patients’ postendovascular thrombectomy with prior IV tPA administration versus those who underwent thrombectomy and did not qualify for preprocedural IV tPA. Results: After application of the set inclusion and exclusion criteria, data of 46 out of 65 patients were analyzed. Twenty-three patients (50%) received IV tPA before thrombectomy and 23 patients did not qualify for IV tPA (50%). Successful recanalization (thrombolysis in cerebral infarction 2b/3) was achieved in 86% (20/23 patients) of thrombectomy patients without preprocedural IV tPA and 82% (19/23) of patients who received it (odds ratio [OR]: 0.03, confidence interval [CI]: 95% 0.062–0.16, P < 0.0001). MRS of 2 or less at 90 days was 43.4% (10/23) in patients with no preprocedural IV tPA and 39.1% (9/23) in the combined therapy group (OR: 0.84, CI: 0.26–2.70, P = 0.8). Conclusion: Patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy for large vessel occlusion at select low-volume rural centers showed benefit from this treatment regardless of IV tPA administration. Clinical outcomes and complications at select low-volume thrombectomy-proficient centers are comparable to large volume comprehensive stroke centers as well as the landmark studies proving the efficacy of endovascular treatment.
In Lak’ ech: you are my other me
Authors: Perego Aurora , Quinan Christine 
Published: April 2018

Abstract
This article aims to explore the potential of transgender studies to offer new trans* and interdisciplinary perspectives that simultaneously question dominant power structures and engage with multiple and unexpected becomings. We believe that the disruptive force of trans-disciplinarity lies in its capacity to open up space for marginalised populations and knowledges by creating a co-emergence of theories and methodologies that, rather than gathering different disciplines around the same topic, becomes, in Roland Barthes’s words, ‘a new object that belongs to no one’. The article attempts to re-imagine interdisciplinarity as a decolonial trans- practice that questions broader processes of exclusion occurring in academia. Such envisioning will unfold around the concept of intersectionality, which we consider necessary to challenge and transform the exclusions reproduced through disciplinary knowledge production. In this respect, we maintain that interdisciplinarity must be constituted so as to trans-cend and queer not only disciplinary boundaries, but also the processes of normalisation that create them. We combine this theorisation with the Mayan principle of In Lak’ ech, which unveils the interdependence of animate and inanimate beings on Earth and thereby has the potential to disrupt not only the notion of ‘proper object’ that belongs to specific disciplines but also the ‘proper subject’, namely disciplinary hierarchies per se. The principle of In Lak’ Ech allows us to envision trans-disciplinary becoming as a practice of intersectional resistance that opens space for radical, trans-, queer, and decolonial social critiques.
Trans smuggling in Jean Genet’s Our lady of the flowers
Authors: Templeton Ainslie 
Published: April 2018

Abstract
This article understands the work of Jean Genet, in particular his first novel, Our Lady of the Flowers (1943), as a site of reappraisal in the context of contemporary transgender studies scholarship. Moving away from Genet’s articulation as a figurehead of gay literature, it understands the trans elements of his work as smuggled through his canonical placement, but also as instances of smuggling in their own right. Irit Rogoff names smuggling as a mode of ‘embodied criticality’ that prioritises movement despite structures of power, and produces meaning through intricate webs of connectedness (2006, p. 1). The article sees this operation in the gender non-conforming protagonist of Genet’s text; Divine, who engages multiple configurations of recognition and movement, both in the novel and in secondary sources. Jean-Paul Sartre and Edmund White rearticulate Genet’s work within canonical frameworks of philosophy, literary, and queer studies. These are self-implicating projects in which their own canonicity becomes entwined with Genet’s, intervening in the work’s possibilities of movement and interpretation. Kathy Acker’s engagement with Genet breaks with these writers. She, likewise, engages canonical frameworks; however, her demonstrated criticality of those frameworks attempts to amplify the smuggling movement of Genet’s text. Tracing smuggling in Our Lady of the Flowers, this article moves towards an expanded understanding of differing configurations of visibility, differing critical priorities, and differing utilities of movement over time and space.
OUTPACE long duration stations: physical variability, context of biogeochemical sampling, and evaluation of sampling strategy

Published: April 2018

Abstract. Research cruises to quantify biogeochemical fluxes in the ocean require
taking measurements at stations lasting at least several days. A popular
experimental design is the quasi-Lagrangian drifter, often mounted with in
situ incubations or sediment traps that follow the flow of water over time. After initial
drifter deployment, the ship tracks the drifter for continuing measurements
that are supposed to represent the same water environment. An outstanding
question is how to best determine whether this is true. During the
Oligotrophy to UlTra-oligotrophy PACific Experiment (OUTPACE) cruise, from 18
February to 3 April 2015 in the western tropical South Pacific, three
separate stations of long duration (five days) over the upper 500 m
were conducted in this quasi-Lagrangian sampling scheme. Here we present
physical data to provide context for these three stations and to assess
whether the sampling strategy worked, i.e., that a single body of water
was sampled. After analyzing tracer variability and local water circulation
at each station, we identify water layers and times where the drifter risks
encountering another body of water. While almost no realization of this
sampling scheme will be truly Lagrangian, due to the presence of vertical
shear, the depth-resolved observations during the three stations show most
layers sampled sufficiently homogeneous physical environments during OUTPACE.
By directly addressing the concerns raised by these quasi-Lagrangian sampling
platforms, a protocol of best practices can begin to be formulated so that
future research campaigns include the complementary datasets and analyses
presented here to verify the appropriate use of the drifter platform.
Multi-year analysis of distributed glacier mass balance modelling and equilibrium line altitude on King George Island, Antarctic Peninsula
Authors: Falk Ulrike , López Damián A. , Silva-Busso Adrián 
Published: April 2018

Abstract. The South Shetland Islands are located at the northern tip of the Antarctic
Peninsula (AP). This region was subject to strong warming trends in the
atmospheric surface layer. Surface air temperature increased about
3 K in 50 years, concurrent with retreating glacier fronts, an
increase in melt areas, ice surface lowering and rapid break-up and
disintegration of ice shelves. The positive trend in surface air temperature
has currently come to a halt. Observed surface air temperature lapse rates
show a high variability during winter months (standard deviations up to ±1.0K(100m)-1) and a distinct spatial heterogeneity
reflecting the impact of synoptic weather patterns. The increased
mesocyclonic activity during the wintertime over the past decades in the
study area results in intensified advection of warm, moist air with high
temperatures and rain and leads to melt conditions on the ice cap, fixating
surface air temperatures to the melting point. Its impact on winter
accumulation results in the observed negative mass balance estimates. Six
years of continuous glaciological measurements on mass balance stake
transects as well as 5 years of climatological data time series are presented
and a spatially distributed glacier energy balance melt model adapted and run
based on these multi-year data sets. The glaciological surface mass balance
model is generally in good agreement with observations, except for
atmospheric conditions promoting snow drift by high wind speeds,
turbulence-driven snow deposition and snow layer erosion by rain. No drift in
the difference between simulated mass balance and mass balance measurements
can be seen over the course of the 5-year model run period. The winter
accumulation does not suffice to compensate for the high variability in
summer ablation. The results are analysed to assess changes in meltwater
input to the coastal waters, specific glacier mass balance and the
equilibrium line altitude (ELA). The Fourcade Glacier catchment drains into
Potter cove, has an area of 23.6 km2 and is glacierized to
93.8 %. Annual discharge from Fourcade Glacier into Potter Cove is
estimated to q¯=25±6hm3yr-1 with the standard
deviation of 8 % annotating the high interannual variability. The
average ELA calculated from our own glaciological
observations on Fourcade Glacier over the time period 2010 to 2015
amounts to 260±20 m. Published studies suggest
rather stable conditions of slightly negative glacier mass balance
until the mid-1980s with an ELA of approx. 150 m. The
calculated accumulation area ratio suggests dramatic changes in the
future extent of the inland ice cap for the South Shetland Islands.

L’égalité professionnelle entre les hommes et les femmes, mise en images pour un nouvel espace relationnel
Authors: GAUTIER CHOVELON Christine 
Published: April 2018

Cet article s’appuie sur une pratique de formation permettant de mettre en parallèle les enjeux de l’égalité professionnelle au regard de ceux de la mixité en vue d’appréhender l’égalité réelle en tant que nouvel espace relationnel coopératif entre les femmes et les hommes. Cette pratique a expérimenté les modalités conceptuelles de construction et a mis en lumière la « réciprocité formatrice » (Héber-Suffrin, 2011).Une pédagogie de la créativité a été mise en place autour de la mise en images de l’égalité professionnelle. Nous considérerons que l’égalité professionnelle
met en débat l’idée de faire un travail de prise de conscience de nos perceptions et de nos résonances symboliques nécessaire pour la mise en oeuvre de l’égalité réelle professionnelle.
Les résultats de cette expérimentation seront présentés ainsi que la spécificité d’un accompagnement à développer au sein des entreprises et des institutions publiques.
Medical Assistance in Dying in Canada: An Ethical Analysis of Conscientious and Religious Objections
Authors: Christie Timothy , Sloan John , Dahlgren Dylan , Koning Fred 
Published: April 2018

Background: The Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) has ruled that the federal government is required to remove the provisions of the Criminal Code of Canada that prohibit medical assistance in dying (MAID). The SCC has stipulated that individual physicians will not be required to provide MAID should they have a religious or conscientious objection. Therefore, the pending legislative response will have to balance the rights of the patients with the rights of physicians, other health care professionals, and objecting institutions.
Objective: The objective of this paper is to critically assess, within the Canadian context, the moral probity of individual or institutional objections to MAID that are for either religious or conscientious reasons.
Methods: Deontological ethics and the Doctrine of Double Effect.
Results: The religious or conscientious objector has conflicting duties, i.e., a duty to respect the “right to life” (section 7 of the Charter) and a duty to respect the tenets of his or her religious or conscientious beliefs (protected by section 2 of the Charter).
Conclusion: The discussion of religious or conscientious objections to MAID has not explicitly considered the competing duties of the conscientious objector. It has focussed on the fact that a conscientious objection exists and has ignored the normative question of whether the duty to respect one’s conscience or religion supersedes the duty to respect the patient’s right to life.

Present and future ecological niche modeling of garter snake species from the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt
Authors: González-Fernández Andrea , Manjarrez Javier , García-Vázquez Uri , D’Addario Maristella , Sunny Armando 
Published: April 2018

Land use and climate change are affecting the abundance and distribution of species. The Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt (TMVB) is a very diverse region due to geological history, geographic position, and climate. It is also one of the most disturbed regions in Mexico. Reptiles are particularly sensitive to environmental changes due to their low dispersal capacity and thermal ecology. In this study, we define the important environmental variables (considering climate, topography, and land use) and potential distribution (present and future) of the five Thamnophis species present in TMVB. To do so, we used the maximum entropy modeling software (MAXENT). First, we modeled to select the most important variables to explain the distribution of each species, then we modeled again using only the most important variables and projected these models to the future considering a middle-moderate climate change scenario (rcp45), and land use and vegetation variables for the year 2050 (generated according to land use changes that occurred between years 2002 and 2011). Arid vegetation had an important negative effect on habitat suitability for all species, and minimum temperature of the coldest month was important for four of the five species. Thamnophis cyrtopsis was the species with the lowest tolerance to minimum temperatures. The maximum temperature of the warmest month was important for T. scalaris and T. cyrtopsis. Low percentages of agriculture were positive for T. eques and T. melanogaster but, at higher values, agriculture had a negative effect on habitat suitability for both species. Elevation was the most important variable to explain T. eques and T. melanogaster potential distribution while distance to Abies forests was the most important variable for T. scalaris and T. scaliger. All species had a high proportion of their potential distribution in the TMVB. However, according to our models, all Thamnophis species will experience reductions in their potential distribution in this region. T. scalaris will suffer the biggest reduction because this species is limited by high temperatures and will not be able to shift its distribution upward, as it is already present in the highest elevations of the TMVB.

As implicações do sexismo benévolo na afirmação de estereótipos femininos
Authors: Horácio de Souza Jéssica 
Published: April 2018

<p>Perceber e considerar as diferenças de papéis sociais que homens e mulheres representam é o início do processo para compreender o sexismo enquanto afirmação de estereótipos em relação ao gênero. A partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica com abordagem qualitativa e de cunho exploratório tornou-se possível compreender a afirmação dos estereótipos femininos expressa através de atitudes cavalheirescas. Problematizar os pensamentos e as intenções por trás do sexismo benévolo é importante para possibilitar a liberdade das mulheres se construírem do modo que elas desejarem e portanto, escolherem, evitando que vivenciem os estereótipos de gênero como um destino fixo e imutável. </p>
