L’amirauté de Dunkerque : Personnel, comptes et archives (1671-1791)
Authors: Pfister-Langanay Christian 
Published: February 2017

Recréée en 1671, l’amirauté de Dunkerque prend une importance exceptionnelle dès son rétablissement quand la cité devient, pour un siècle, le premier port corsaire du royaume. Son histoire est des plus compliquée à reconstituer dans la mesure où le tri de ses archives en 1869 aboutit à trois catastrophes : le pilonnage de près de mille cartons et registres, l’envoi aux Archives Nationales de 223 autres dossiers maintenant dispersés dans diverses sous-séries et enfin l’incendie du fonds subsistant à Dunkerque en 1929. Le but de cet article est de dresser un état des lieux permettant au chercheur de se repérer dans tous les membra disjecta survivants, d’où la création d’une prosopographie élémentaire du personnel ainsi que d’un inventaire précis des registres subsistants. Il sera ainsi possible de reprendre à nouveaux frais l’histoire maritime de Dunkerque qui, pour l’instant, s’écrit toujours sur les mêmes documents.
Méditation assise : penser au sans penser.
Authors: Andrei Laurentiu 
Published: February 2017

Le moine japonais Dōgen Kigen (1200-1253) voit dans la méditation assise ( zazen ) l’essence de ce que le sanscrit appelle dhyāna et le japonais zen. La pratique de cette méditation repose sur des règles commandant précisément la manière de s’assoir en vue de « penser au sans penser ». On y a souvent vu un amoralisme, un anti-intellectualisme ou un quiétisme. Mais la consigne de ne penser ni au bien ni au mal n’est pas un amoralisme. Penser au sans penser n’est pas un anti-intellectualisme. Il s’agit de surmonter au sein de la pratique toute attitude dualiste à l’égard de soi et du monde, par un véritable exercice spirituel qui implique tout autant le corps que l’esprit.
Pathologie du soi chez le schizophrène
Authors: Kimura Bin 
Published: February 2017

La « philosophie clinique » conduit à voir dans la schizophrénie une crise du principe d’individuation. Le psychiatre la perçoit « par le sentiment » ; elle concerne le rapport du soi au non-soi. Cette perspective a été élaborée de diverses manières en psychiatrie, mais elle s’éclaire philosophiquement grâce à des auteurs comme Kierkegaard, Nishida, Weizsäcker et Ricœur, lesquels permettent d’introduire des notions comme l’auto-éveil et la relation à autrui.
Sur les indéfinis singuliers génériques en français et en serbe
Authors: Stanojević Veran , Đurić Ljubica 
Published: February 2017

Dans ce travail, nous nous intéressons aux phrases génériques du français et du serbe dont le sujet est un syntagme nominal indéfini singulier ( un N / jedan N ). En adoptant l’analyse des indéfinis singuliers génériques en termes de points de vue (Mari, 2008a, 2008b, 2011), nous étudions les contraintes qui pèsent sur l’emploi des indéfinis avec jedan en position de sujet en serbe en les comparant au français. Nous constatons que le point de vue dit des « normes sociales » joue un rôle essentiel dans le choix du déterminant jedan en serbe, alors qu’en français tous les points de vue rendent possible l’emploi de l’article indéfini.
Natalizumab for Multiple Sclerosis: A Case in Point for the Impact of Translational Neuroimmunology
Authors: Shirani Afsaneh , Stüve Olaf 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
Advances in translational neuroimmunology over the last two decades have revolutionized the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. A pathological hallmark of multiple sclerosis is the presence of leukocytes in the areas of disease activity in the CNS. Natalizumab inhibits the trafficking of lymphocytes from the blood into the brain and spinal cord by blocking the adhesion molecule α4-integrin. Representing the enormous success of a molecular targeted approach, natalizumab was the first mAb approved for the treatment of relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis. However, only a few months after its approval, natalizumab was withdrawn from the market because of an unanticipated life threatening adverse effect: progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. Natalizumab was later reintroduced with required adherence to a strict monitoring program. In this article, we review the bench-to-bedside journey of natalizumab, along with the lessons learned from postmarketing studies.
Cubrimiento de la salud mental en la prensa colombiana, un aporte aún en construcción
Authors: Gutiérrez-Coba Liliana , Salgado-Cardona Andrea , García Perdomo Víctor , Guzmán- Rossini Yahira 
Published: February 2017

Pese a que el papel de los medios de comunicación en las tareas de promoción de salud ha sido ampliamente documentado, y que en lo referente a salud mental la información sobre prevención, tratamiento y casos exitosos de integración resulta muy relevante para disminuir el estigma social que pesa sobre las personas con trastornos mentales, son escasas las publicaciones sobre el tema en la prensa colombiana. Para este estudio descriptivo-correlacional, fueron analizadas 545 notas periodísticas sobre salud mental publicadas en 7 periódicos colombianos, aplicando la técnica de análisis de contenido. En promedio, menos de 1,5 notas periodísticas diarias relacionadas con el tema fueron publicadas en todo un año en siete medios de comunicación, es decir, apenas 0,2 en cada periódico. Los temas de salud mental sobre los que más publican los periódicos son las adicciones (65,5%) y las conductas suicidas (22,4%). Resulta además muy significativo que de los 545 textos analizados, sólo 15 hayan hecho un procesamiento adecuado de los términos especializados para que fueran entendidos por lectores de medios generalistas. Esto revela una falta de conocimiento del tema por parte de los periodistas, y, así mismo, una incapacidad de profundizar en él y ofrecerle al lector una perspectiva más amplia, que vaya más allá de los hechos netos. De manera que es un campo en el que se debería trabajar más, desde las Facultades de Periodismo como desde los propios medios.
O znanych i mniej znanych relacjach Leonharda Eulera z Polską
Authors: Sznajder Roman 
Published: February 2017

W tej pracy skupiamy się na kontaktach badawczych Leonharda Eulera z polskimi naukowcami jego epoki, głównie z Gdańska (wtedy Gedanum, Danzig). L. Euler był najbardziej płodnym matematykiem wszystkich czasów, najwybitniejszym matematykiem osiemnastego wieku i jednym z najlepszych w historii. Kompletne wydanie jego rękopisów nie zostało dotąd zakoń- czone (Kleinert 2015; Kleinert, Mattmüller 2007).Kontakty Eulera z francuskimi, niemieckimi, rosyjskimi i szwajcarskimi naukowcami są powszechnie znane, a stosunki z Polską, wtedy jednym z największych krajów europejskich, są nadal zapomniane. Euler odwiedził Polskę tylko raz, w czerwcu 1766 roku, w drodze powrotnej z Berlina do Petersburga.Ostatni król Polski Stanisław August poniatowski gościł Eulera w Warszawie przez dziesięć dni. Wielu polskich naukowców przedstawiono Eulerowi, nie tylko z kręgów matematycznych, ale również astronomów i geografów. Korespondencja Eulera z gdańskimi naukowcami i urzędnikami, w tym Carlem L. Ehlerem, Heinrichem Kühnem i Natanaelem M. von Wolfem zaczęła się już w połowie lat 30. XVIII wieku. Wyróżniamy relacje L. Eulera z H. Kühnem, profesorem matematyki w Gimnazjum Akademickim w Gdańsku i prawdopodobnie najlepszym polskim matematykiem tamtej epoki. To od H. Kühna Euler dowiedział się o problemie mostów królewieckich. Dlatego można argumentować, że początek teorii grafów i topologii płaszczyzny wywodzi się z Gdańska. Ponadto, H. Kühn był pierwszym matematykiem, który zaproponował interpretację geometryczną liczb zespolonych, bardzo cenioną przez Eulera.Ustalenia zawarte w niniejszym artykule są albo nieznane lub mało znane ogólnej społeczności matematyków.
Staining in Tympanoplasty: Is Methylene Blue Rational?
Authors: Yadav SPS , Kathuria Bhushan , Dhingra Himani , Gulia Joginder , Hernot Sharad 
Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT

Objective
Is there any advantages of using methylene blue in myringoplasty? To compare the results of methylene blue stained temporalis fascia graft with unstained temporalis fascia graft in underlay myringoplasty.

Materials and methods
In this prospective study, 120 patients of either sex in age group of 15 to 50 years with non-cholesteatomatous chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) were recruited. Patients were initially managed medically to make the ear dry and after that they were operated upon. Sixty patients underwent underlay myringoplasty using methylene blue stained temporalis fascia graft and 60 patients underwent underlay myringoplasty using unstained temporalis fascia graft. Follow-up period was at least 6 months.

Results
Graft uptake and hearing improvement was comparable in both groups. Although there was 10% higher graft uptake using methylene blue stained temporalis fascia (95%) as compared to unstained temporalis fascia graft (85%), however the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.5). But there was statistically significant difference in gain in hearing threshold (gain in air-bone gap) in the myringoplasty using methylene blue stained temporalis fascia graft (18 dB ± 7.156) as compared to myringoplasty using unstained temporalis fascia graft (13.7 dB ± 5.70814) (p = 0.04).

Conclusion
Methylene blue use in myringoplasty allows improved identification of the graft, can be very helpful for trainee residents and reduce the time of a graft placement. Also, methylene blue as an antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, prevents degradation and lysis of fascia graft, improves the overall success rate of graft uptake with no adverse effects.

Late Presentation of Idiopathic Tympanic Membrane Ossification with External Auditory Canal Stenosis
Authors: Verma Hitesh 
Published: February 2017

ABSTRACTThe external auditory canal (EAC) is formed by lateral cartilaginous and medial bony part. The stenosis of EAC is narrowing of the width of the EAC, i.e. either caused by congenital or acquired causes. Myringosclerosis is a condition caused by calcification of tissues in the tympanic membrane and ossification is a special form of fibrosis due to the long-term, irreversible continued inflammation in the middle ear cleft. We are presenting rare case of idiopathic tympanic membrane ossification with generalized stenosis of EAC in 29-year-old patient.How to cite this articleVerma H, Dass A, Singhal SK, Gupta N.

ABSTRACTWe report a case of a 63 years old man who presented with a profusely bleeding mass in the left external auditory canal. He had been diagnosed to have left skull base osteomyelitis and had undergone surgery twice for the same. The mass was diagnosed radiologically to be a pseudoaneurysm arising from the left retroauricular artery. He subsequently underwent embolization of the retroauricular branch of the left external carotid artery following which the mass subsided and bleeding from the ear stopped.How to cite this articleJohn BT, Augustine AM, Lepcha A, Mathew J, Moses V.

Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT
Schwannomas are benign slow-growing encapsulated tumors arising from the Schwann cells that ensheath the axons of the peripheral, cranial, and autonomic nervous systems. About 25 to 45% of all Schwannomas are seen in the head and neck but Schwannoma of the external auditory canal is rare. We report a case of Schwannoma of the external auditory canal in a 18-year-old male patient.

Clinicohistological Correlation and Cost-effectiveness of routinely performed Histological Examination of Pregnancy Tissues obtained at Uterine Evacuation Procedure: Five-year Experience at a Secondary Care Hospital of Karachi, Pakistan
Authors: Memon Zaibunnisa , Anjum Naureen , Sheikh Sana Sadiq 
Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT

Aim
To assess clinicohistological correlation and costeffectiveness of routinely performed histological examination of pregnancy tissue samples collected at surgical uterine evacuation

Materials and methods
In this retrospective study, medical record of patients admitted for incomplete miscarriage, missed miscarriage, and anembryonic miscarriage in the first trimester from January 2010 to August 2014 were reviewed. Histopathologic diagnosis of the tissue samples obtained via surgical uterine evacuation in these patients was compared with the preevacuation diagnosis.

Results
Specimens of 711 patients were sent after uterine evacuation. Histopathologic examination revealed normal product of conception in 681 patients (95.7%), while partial hydatidiform mole was diagnosed in 14 patients (1.9%). Complete hydatidiform mole was detected in only three cases (0.42%). Decidual tissue without chorionic villi was reported in 13 patients (1.8%). The diagnosis of complete mole was suspected in all three cases and in six cases of partial mole before procedure.

Conclusion
Findings of study did not show any diagnostic and financial benefit from routine histological examination of tissue removed at termination of pregnancy or emergency uterine evacuation. We recommend that histopathological examination be performed in cases where the diagnosis is uncertain, fewer tissues obtained during evacuation, when molar pregnancy is suspected, or when patients are considered at high risk for trophoblastic disease.

Assessment of Patient Satisfaction after Counseling by a Health Care Provider before Emergency Cesarean Section in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Syed Tehmina P , Sheikh Zakia , Hameed Farah 
Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Patient satisfaction is one of the most frequently reported outcome measures for quality of health care. In recent years, effective counseling has become a very important tool to involve patient participation in decision-making. The objective of this study was to assess the patient satisfaction by the counseling of a health care provider before emergency cesarean section (C-section) in a tertiary care hospital.

Materials and methods
A descriptive cross-sectional questionnaire study of 53 women, who had their first babies by C-section or had C-section first time with previous normal deliveries, in Hamdard University hospital in 3 months.

Data analysis
Questionnaires were distributed among patients on their second postoperative day after emergency C-section. A good total response rate for patient satisfaction survey is in the 40 to 60% range. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 was used to analyze the data, patient satisfaction was analyzed by using descriptive statistics (%, frequency), and independent sample t-test and analysis of variance were applied to assess the satisfaction level for demographic indicators.

Results
Out of 53 women, 38 (71.7%) were satisfied with the counseling while 15 (28.3%) were dissatisfied; 35 (66%) were primigravida while 17 (32%) were multigravida. The majority was in the age group of 25 to 30 (41%) years; 21 (39.6%) were undergraduate, out of them 12 (55.2%) were satisfied; 32 (60.3%) were graduate, out of them 26 (82%0) agreed; 46 (86%) participants know their counselor; and 44 (83%) reported good attitude. A safe atmosphere was created by the counselor in 38 (71.7%) cases, and 24 (45%) participants reported that the counselor used medical jargons. Privacy was not maintained in 39.6%, and 18 (33.9%) reported negative feelings like anxiety and depression after their counseling.

Conclusion
Patient satisfaction is an important quality outcome indicator to measure success of the health care services. Evaluation of patient care is vital to provide opportunity for improvement like strategic framing of health plans.

Audiological Functions in Pregnancy
Authors: Sharma Shivani , Thakur Rakesh , Dogra Sunder S 
Published: February 2017

Introduction
During pregnancy virtually every organ system undergoes anatomical and physiological changes that can alter appreciably the criteria for diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Hormonal fluctuations alter the composition of endolymph and perilymph, and ion transport process. Hence, audiological functions in pregnancy need evaluation.

Materials and methods
After approval of Institutional Ethics Committee, 100 pregnant women were recruited in the 1st trimester. Tuning tests were done using 128, 256, 512, and 1024 Hz tuning forks. Pure tone audiometry was done and hearing thresholds measured for 125, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 Hz. Finally, impedance audiometry was done in all the women in each trimester.

Results
There was no air—bone gap. There was gradual reduction in hearing acuity at low frequencies (125, 250, 500, and 1000 Hz) from 1st to 3rd trimester of pregnancy. The hearing thresholds got stabilized in the 3rd trimester and returned to normal in postpartum period. For 2000 Hz and higher frequencies, there was no significant difference in relation to pregnant subjects. Number of pregnancies did not affect the audiological functions.

Conclusion
Low-frequency hearing loss during pregnancy appears to be transient in nature with complete resolution in the postpartum period in most cases. For better understanding of these changes, obstetricians and otolaryngologists can team-up and avoid use of drugs for their symptoms during pregnancy.

Pregnancy Complicated by Portal Hypertension Secondary to Noncirrhotic Portal Fibrosis
Authors: Niroopama Pushpagiri 
Published: February 2017

ABSTRACT
Noncirrhotic portal fibrosis (NCPF) is a liver disorder characterized by periportal fibrosis of small and medium branches of portal vein resulting in portal hypertension with the sequelae of variceal bleed requiring immediate attention. We report a case of 27-years-old primigravida with NCPF presented for her booking visit with 3 months of amenorrhea. Clinical examination and ultrasound revealed 12 weeks of intrauterine gestation with moderate splenomegaly, dilated portal vein, and splenic vein. The patient was referred to medical gastroenterologist. Hematological investigations were found normal except for borderline thrombocytopenia. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed grade I esophageal varices. She was monitored bimonthly by obstetrician and hepatologist as she was potential for variceal bleed, anemia, liver derangement, and coagulation abnormalities during antenatal and intrapartum period. She had well-preserved liver function throughout pregnancy and no variceal bleed. Fetal surveillance was done and she received prophylactic corticosteroids at 28 weeks of gestation for fetal lung maturation. Antenatal period was uneventful. In view of breech presentation, elective cesarean section was performed and a healthy male baby was delivered weighing 2.9 kg, with good Apgar score. Intrapartum and postpartum period was uneventful. Surveillance by a multidisciplinary team is important for such high-risk pregnancy for optimizing obstetric and neonatal care.

Published: February 2017

Abstract. Vertical profiles of 3-D wind velocity are retrieved from triple range-height-indicator (RHI) scans performed with multiple simultaneous scanning Doppler wind lidars. This test is part of the eXperimental Planetary boundary layer Instrumentation Assessment (XPIA) campaign carried out at the Boulder Atmospheric Observatory. The three wind velocity components are retrieved and then compared with the data acquired through various profiling wind lidars and high-frequency wind data obtained from sonic anemometers installed on a 300 m meteorological tower. The results show that the magnitude of the horizontal wind velocity and the wind direction obtained from the triple RHI scans are generally retrieved with good accuracy. However, poor accuracy is obtained for the evaluation of the vertical velocity, which is mainly due to its typically smaller magnitude and to the error propagation connected with the data retrieval procedure and accuracy in the experimental setup.
