Kompression nach Sklerotherapie mit flüssigen und aufgeschäumten Agenzien
Authors: Cucuruz B. , Noppeney T. , Noppeney J. 
Published: March 2018

ZusammenfassungDie Kompressionstherapie gehört zu den basistherapeutischen Maßnahmen der Phlebologie. Aus einer Befragung unter deutschen Phlebologen wissen wir, dass diese in etwa 30 Prozent der Fälle, Patienten nach Sklerotherapie mit Kompressionsstrümpfen versorgen.Um die Frage zu beantworten ob Kompressionstherapie nach Sklerotherapie zu besseren Ergebnissen führt, haben wir eine systemische Literaturrecherche in Medline, Pubmed Central und Embase durchgeführt. Dabei konnten wir fünf prospektive randomisierte Studien, eine prospektive Kohortenstudie und Leitlinienempfehlungen zu diesem Thema identifizieren.Die vorliegende Literatur zeigt, dass Kompressionstherapie bis zu 3 Wochen nach Sklerotherapie von Besenreiser und retikulären Varizen zu einer Verbesserung der Ergebnisse, sowie zu einer Verminderung von Pigmentierungen führt. Die Datenlage zur Schaumsklerotherapie größerer Venen ist uneinheitlich, eine prospektiv randomisierte Studie zeigt keinen positiven Effekt der Kompressionstherapie, eine prospektive Kohortenstudie ergibt einen besseren Sklerosierungserfolg in Abhängigkeit von der Compliance der Patienten.In den Leitlinien wird im Allgemeinen eine Empfehlung zur Kompressionstherapie nach Sklerotherapie abgegeben, wobei keine Empfehlungen zur Dauer der Kompression erfolgen. Aufgrund der eingeschränkten Datenlage sind weitere Studien nötig um den Benefit der Kompression nach Sklerotherapie deutlich zu belegen.
Using Homemade, Short, Fictional Cases for Teaching the Theory of Constraints
Authors: Orchard Ryan K. 
Published: March 2018

For our undergraduate Operations Management course, a lack of case studies meeting our specific needs, coupled with our reluctance to reuse cases too frequently, inspired development of a collection of “homemade” cases. These cases, which focus on application of the Theory of Constraints, are fictional (of necessity) and short (by design); however, we have found that these two characteristics have not limited the effectiveness of the case assignments: They are consistently meeting our pedagogical objectives, including eliciting deliberation and varied responses from students. This paper discusses the motivation for developing homemade cases, the nature of the cases (short, fictional) and associated implications, advice for development and implementation, and feedback from students.

Published: March 2018

Introduction The aim of this study was to determine whether ultrasound alone is sufficient to safely exclude malignancy in thyroid nodules in a district general hospital setting, to comply with the latest British Thyroid Association guidelines. Methods This retrospective study investigated the quality of ultrasound reporting and the correlation between ultrasound report and histology for individual thyroid nodules. Cases were selected from the thyroid multidisciplinary meeting and included all patients having undergone surgery for a thyroid malignancy in a one-year period. Results Forty-seven patients were included in the study. Ultrasound reports were reviewed and assessed, in which 21 clinicians were involved; 36% of scans included a summary of whether the nodule(s) overall appeared benign, equivocal, suspicious or malignant; 4% of reports included a U classification; 81% of reports commented on cervical lymph nodes. Ultrasound was compared with histology. The sensitivity of ultrasound in correctly identifying nodules requiring further investigation was of 56% and specificity was 81%. Positive predictive value was 81% and negative predictive value was 56%. Discussion These findings suggest that, in a district general hospital setting without a dedicated head and neck radiologist, using only ultrasound and limiting fine-needle aspiration cytology to identify suspicious nodules may not be safe, as a high number of nodules appearing benign on ultrasound may ultimately prove to be malignant.
Les dispositifs de professionnalisation des formations universitaires en communication
Authors: Lambotte François , Lafrance André A. , Coyette Catherine 
Published: March 2018

Dans cet article, nous développons une réflexion sur la professionnalisation de la formation universitaire en communication. Après avoir exposé les différentes significations possibles pour la notion de professionnalisation ainsi que les dispositifs pédagogiques s’y référant, nous faisons état de la situation en Belgique, en France ainsi qu’au Canada. Nous dégageons ensuite une série d’enjeux que nous abordons au travers du récit de notre propre dispositif d’enseignement. Le récit retrace la mise en place d’un séminaire de communication interne interactif dans lequel des étudiants canadiens, français et belges collaborent pour la résolution d’un audit de communication interne fictif. Au final, en prenant appui sur le cadre théorique de Wittorski (2012), notre article se clôture par une discussion sur les plus-values et les limites d’un tel projet tant pour les étudiants que pour les enseignants. Nous concluons que notre dispositif de formation que nous qualifions de « pédagogie active » est en adéquation avec les attentes et recommandations des associations professionnelles. Parallèlement, il préserve chez eux le développement de compétences universitaires. Les étudiants sont notamment amenés à accroître leur savoir-faire tout en élaborant une réflexion critique sur leurs pratiques professionnelles.
La culture créative des organisations comme substrat à l’apprentissage créatif
Authors: Baillargeon Dany 
Published: March 2018

La créativité, autant comme acte processuel que comme résultat de ce processus, est un trope fondateur des agences de communication marketing (McFall, 2004, Nixon 2003). Certains avancent même que la créativité serait la raison d’être des agences (Nixon, 2003). Or pour certains, la créativité ne s’apprendrait pas – en témoigne le parcours académique éclectique des créatifs – ou ne s’apprendrait qu’au contact des pairs (Powell, 2006), à travers des dynamiques de production de sens (Drazin, Glynn & Kazanjian, 1999), des frictions entre les différents corps d’emploi (Hirschman, 1989) ou au contact des clients (Cronin, 2004). Cet article a un triple objectif : 1) d’abord proposer une définition opératoire pour mieux saisir cette culture créative ; 2) l’exemplifier à l’aide d’une étude de cas dans une petite agence de onze personnes 3) mettre en relation la notion de culture créative avec celle d’apprentissage et de transmission du savoir créatif. Il s’en dégage que la performativité de l’ethos créatif des employés comme celle de l’agence participent à maintenir cette culture créative autant qu’elle transmet des formes d’apprentissage de qui est et de ce qui est créatif à travers des dynamiques identitaires, l’éducation à faire auprès des clients et l’utilisation de structures de légitimation interne et externe à l’agence.
Creativity, both as a procedural act as well as the result of such a process, is a founding trope of marketing communication agencies (McFall, 2004, Nixon 2003). Some even argue that creativity is the raison d’être of those agencies (Nixon, 2003). But for some, creativity cannot be learned – as shown by the eclectic academic background of creatives – or it could be learned only through being in contact with peers (Powell, 2006), with clients (Cronin, 2004), through the process of creating meaning (Drazin, Glynn & Kazanjian, 1999), or frictions between different job categories (Hirschman, 1989). The goal of this article is threefold: 1) to propose an operational definition of “creative culture” in order to better understand it; 2) to exemplify it using a case study of a small agency 3) to articulate a relationship between the three related concepts: culture, creative learning and transmission of creative knowledge. The study demonstrates how the performativity of the creative ethos of both employees and agency interact to maintain this creative culture while indicating who and what is creative, through dynamics of identity, educating clients and the use of internal and external structures of legitimation.

La professionnalisation des référenceurs aux prises avec le changement permanent
Authors: Domenget Jean-Claude , Sire Guillaume 
Published: March 2018

Dans le processus de professionnalisation des référenceurs, le changement permanent imposé par Google, loin de remettre en cause la pérennité de la profession, est un facteur clé de la reconnaissance de leur fonction au sein des organisations et auprès des différents acteurs avec lesquels ils interagissent (clients, collègues, responsables, etc.). En partant du concept de professionnalisation, développé dans le champ de recherche sur la socialisation professionnelle et la construction identitaire, nous décryptons le marché du référencement en tant que système professionnel. Basé sur l’analyse croisée des résultats de deux recherches empiriques, l’une sur les référenceurs en entreprise de presse et l’autre sur les référenceurs dits « pionniers », notre raisonnement vise à expliquer pourquoi le contexte de flou et de changements permanents contribue en grande partie à la reconnaissance et à la légitimation de la profession du référenceur, et pourquoi ce même contexte peut également conduire à une remise en cause du statut des référenceurs et être mobilisé dans le discours de leurs collaborateurs comme un moyen de questionner leur crédibilité. Autrement dit, le contexte d’incertitude a cela de paradoxal qu’il contribue à rendre pérenne la profession des référenceurs tout en empêchant que le processus de professionnalisation ne s’achève.
If we look at the process of professionalization of SEOs, the permanent change imposed by Google does not prevent the profession to be sustainable. Actually, it is a key factor for the recognition of their function within organizations and among people with whom they interact (customers, colleagues, managers, etc.). Starting from the concept of professionalization, developed in both fields of professional socialization and identity building, we describe SEO market as a professional system. Thanks to the comparative analysis of two empirical studies, one about the role played by SEOs within the news publishing companies and the other about the identity of the SEO « pioneers », our aim was to explain why the context of vagueness and permanent changes helps largely to the recognition and legitimation of SEOs’ profession, and why the same context can also lead to question the status of SEOs and their credibility. In other words, the context of uncertainty appears to be paradoxical because, on one hand, it helps making the SEOs’ profession sustainable and, on the other hand, it prevents the professionalization process to be achieved.
Prise de parole publique et professionnalisation de la communication
Authors: Le Bouëdec Annaïck , Douyère David 
Published: March 2018

Cet article étudie le mediacoaching entendu comme professionnalisation du conseil à la prise de parole dans l’espace public et médiatique. Il considère les pratiques professionnelles en lien avec les discours qui les légitiment et s’inscrit dans le cadre de l’étude de la professionnalisation de la communication dans l’espace public (Michel, Lépine, Martin-Juchat et al.) et des liens ambigus entre journalisme et communication (Charon, Legavre, Olivesi). Examinant, à partir d’une étude de terrain, les conceptions et le travail d’une agence de conseil auprès de ses clients, comme les représentations de ces derniers, cette recherche fait apparaître que le mediacoach ancre ici son supposé savoir dans le métier de journaliste, exercé précédemment, identité professionnelle légitimante et favorablement perçue par les clients pour la compréhension qu’elle leur donne des perceptions médiatiques qu’ils s’apprêtent à rencontrer. Le mediacoach apparaît dès lors comme un adaptateur médiatique, ou un initié, concourant à la construction du message du porte-parole de l’organisation et à la supposée émancipation (autonomisation) de celui-ci dans sa prise de parole.
This article examines media coaching as an approach to presenting viewpoints in public and in the media. It looks at this activity in relation to the type of discourse that legitimates it, in the framework of professional communication (Michel, Lépine, Martin-Juchat), and with regard to the ambiguity of the connection between communication and journalism (Charon, Legavre, Olivesi). Based on an empirical study of a consultancy and its clients, along with the representations mobilized by the latter, the research demonstrates how a media coach can draw on previous experience as a journalist, which confers authority and is favorably viewed by clients for the insights it gives them into the media. A coach can thus participate in the co-construction of an organization’s messages, and the consequent emancipation, or autonomisation, of its spokespersons.

Este artículo indaga las tensiones entre la obra del poeta ecuatoriano Antonio Preciado, frente a ciertas categorizaciones en el análisis y la producción literaria de los hijos de la diáspora. El análisis persigue un posicionamiento para desarrollar herramientas teóricas orientadas en los procesos de descolonización de la interpretación literaria y de los saberes, cuyo valor trasciende lo particular y la estereotipación sobre lo “Afro”. Intenta, también, hacer una lectura que compare distintos posicionamientos históricos y teóricos, que permitan dialogar con la producción poética de Preciado, en su negociación y entendimiento del ejercicio literario
Variability of Plyometric and Ballistic Exercise Technique Maintains Jump Performance

Abstract
Chandler, PT, Greig, M, Comfort, P, and McMahon, JJ. Variability of plyometric and ballistic exercise technique maintains jump performance. J Strength Cond Res 32(6): 1571–1582, 2018—The aim of this study was to investigate changes in vertical jump technique over the course of a training session. Twelve plyometric and ballistic exercise–trained male athletes (age = 23.4 ± 4.6 years, body mass = 78.7 ± 18.8 kg, height = 177.1 ± 9.0 cm) performed 3 sets of 10 repetitions of drop jump (DJ), rebound jump (RJ) and squat jump (SJ). Each exercise was analyzed from touchdown to peak joint flexion and peak joint flexion to take-off. Squat jump was analyzed from peak joint flexion to take-off only. Jump height, flexion and extension time and range of motion, and instantaneous angles of the ankle, knee, and hip joints were measured. Separate 1-way repeated analyses of variance compared vertical jump technique across exercise sets and repetitions. Exercise set analysis found that SJ had lower results than DJ and RJ for the angle at peak joint flexion for the hip, knee, and ankle joints and take-off angle of the hip joint. Exercise repetition analysis found that the ankle joint had variable differences for the angle at take-off, flexion, and extension time for RJ. The knee joint had variable differences for flexion time for DJ and angle at take-off and touchdown for RJ. There was no difference in jump height. Variation in measured parameters across repetitions highlights variable technique across plyometric and ballistic exercises. This did not affect jump performance, but likely maintained jump performance by overcoming constraints (e.g., level of rate coding).
Pulsed Eddy Current Applied to Measure Residual Stress in Welding

Published: March 2018

Abstract
Welding is a manufacturing process of joining components that is dominant in industries that include civil, oil and gas, automotive, etc. Although it has various benefits, welding still causes residual stresses to remain in a component after welding. Residual stresses may result in unexpected failure and may worsen mechanical performance. Common methods to measure residual stresses include hole-drilling and X-ray diffraction and are characterized by their lack of reliability and complicated implementation process. In this study, pulsed eddy current (PEC) is introduced as a promising technique to measure subsurface residual stress in welding. First, the PEC method is calibrated and the correlation between signals and known stresses are identified, and then the residual stress in a welded component is estimated, and finally, the residual stresses measured by PEC were compared to the results obtained by the finite element technique.
Insight into Genes Regulating Postharvest Aflatoxin Contamination of Tetraploid Peanut from Transcriptional Profiling
Authors: Korani Walid , Chu Ye , Holbrook C Corley , Ozias-Akins Peggy 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Postharvest aflatoxin contamination is a challenging issue that affects peanut quality. Aflatoxin is produced by fungi belonging to the Aspergilli group, and is known as an acutely toxic, carcinogenic, and immune-suppressing class of mycotoxins. Evidence for several host genetic factors that may impact aflatoxin contamination has been reported, e.g., genes for lipoxygenase (PnLOX1 and PnLOX2/PnLOX3 that showed either positive or negative regulation with Aspergillus infection), reactive oxygen species, and WRKY (highly associated with or differentially expressed upon infection of maize with Aspergillus flavus); however, their roles remain unclear. Therefore, we conducted an RNA-sequencing experiment to differentiate gene response to the infection by A. flavus between resistant (ICG 1471) and susceptible (Florida-07) cultivated peanut genotypes. The gene expression profiling analysis was designed to reveal differentially expressed genes in response to the infection (infected vs. mock-treated seeds). In addition, the differential expression of the fungal genes was profiled. The study revealed the complexity of the interaction between the fungus and peanut seeds as the expression of a large number of genes was altered, including some in the process of plant defense to aflatoxin accumulation. Analysis of the experimental data with “keggseq,” a novel designed tool for Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis, showed the importance of α-linolenic acid metabolism, protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, spliceosome, and carbon fixation and metabolism pathways in conditioning resistance to aflatoxin accumulation. In addition, coexpression network analysis was carried out to reveal the correlation of gene expression among peanut and fungal genes. The results showed the importance of WRKY, toll/Interleukin1 receptor–nucleotide binding site leucine-rich repeat (TIR-NBS-LRR), ethylene, and heat shock proteins in the resistance mechanism.

Authors: DUMAN Mehmet , SALMAN Alp 
Published: March 2018

Passive Millimeterwave Imaging (PMI) Technology is used to
view scene in foggy air conditions or to see concealed weapon under clothes
that cannot be seen other technology because of the materials of weapon. There
are some frequency windows to work with millimeterwave technology as 35, 96 and
220 GHz and it is near 35 GHz frequency for this work. Antenna is one of the
most important part in PMI Technology, consequently; major importance has been
given to this segment. Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna has 50.07 ohm input impedance
for matching to the forward circuit, and -39.23 dB input reflection
coefficient, S11, and 6.82 dB gain, is designed for 35.18 GHz in
Computer Simulation Technology Studio Suite Program (CST). After the antenna is connected to the other
circuits such as amplifier or detector, the created system will be integrated
into a scanner which is capable of scanning azimuth and elevation axes. As a
result, PMI System will be formed and ready to view the scene or the hidden
things in haze air conditions.
