Innovative Intraprofessional Clinical Training for Clinical Nurse Specialists and Nurse Practitioner Students
Authors: Haney Tina Sweeney , Sharp Pamela B. , Nesbitt Christianne , Poston Rebecca Deal 
Published: December 2017

Background:Most graduate nursing education curricula naturally segregate students by role as they move into their role-specific coursework and clinical experiences. Segregation diminishes the opportunity for students to form important intraprofessional relationships. Intraprofessional collaboration can potentiate the influence of advanced practice nurses on individual patients, patient populations, and larger health care systems.Method:This pilot program paired clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioner students in immersion clinical practicum experiences aimed to increase their understanding of each other's role and potential avenues for collaboration in future practice.Results:Students report increased levels of understanding of each other's roles and scope of practice. Pairing students in immersion experiences broadens their clinical reach and potentiates their influence on vulnerable patient populations.Conclusion:Findings indicate that this pilot program can be sustained. Benefits to early and focused intraprofessional educational experiences include increased awareness of advanced practice roles, scope of practice, and potential avenues for future collaboration.

Tutoring for Success: Empowering Graduate Nurses After Failure on the NCLEX-RN
Authors: Lutter Stacy L. , Thompson Cheryl W. , Condon Marian C. 
Published: December 2017

Background:
Failure on the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) is a devastating experience. Most research related to NCLEX-RN is focused on predicting and preventing failure. Despite these efforts, more than 20,000 nursing school graduates experience failure on the NCLEX-RN each year, and there is a paucity of literature regarding remediation after failure.

Method:
The aim of this article is to describe an individualized tutoring approach centered on establishing a trusting relationship and incorporating two core strategies for remediation: the nugget method, and a six-step strategy for question analysis.

Results:
This individualized tutoring method has been used by three nursing faculty with a 95% success rate on an NCLEX retake attempt.

Conclusion:

Further research is needed to identify the elements of this tutoring method that influence success. [

Rhétorique et médecine : le De elementis ex Hippocratis sententia de Galien
Authors: Petit Caroline 
Published: December 2017

Cet article examine le court traité De elementis de Galien sous l’angle de la rhétorique : quelles sont les stratégies de persuasion mises en place dans cet important (quoique bref) ouvrage, et dans quel(s) but(s) ? Comment la mise en œuvre de l’excellente formation rhétorique de Galien affecte-t‑elle l’argumentation du médecin ? Texte pédagogique, destiné à un lecteur privilégié, puis remanié pour toucher un plus large public, le De elementis est devenu, dans l’œuvre de Galien, l’un des textes propédeutiques fondamentaux. Concis, efficace et brillant, il est peut-être aussi, comme on le suggère ici, un des textes qui établissent la réputation du médecin de Pergame à Rome aux alentours de 170 de notre ère, au début de sa carrière dans la capitale.
Évaluer les bénéfices de la protection d’une zone humide : application aux sites du Conservatoire du littoral du Bassin d’Arcachon
Authors: Binet Thomas , Mercier-Delacourte Isabelle , Diazabakana Ambre , Keurmeur Nastasia 
Published: December 2017

Cet article présente une évaluation des bénéfices économiques de la politique d’acquisition foncière du Conservatoire du Littoral sur le Bassin d’Arcachon. Elle repose sur l’estimation et la comparaison de la valeur des services écosystémiques rendus par la zone d’étude à l’horizon 2050 en fonction de deux scénarios projectifs : i) un scénario de protection forte correspondant à la mise en œuvre totale de la stratégie d’acquisition à long terme du Conservatoire et ii) un scénario d’affaiblissement de la protection dans lequel cette stratégie d’acquisition n’est pas mise en œuvre. La méthodologie utilisée consacre l’utilisation de la télédétection et l’analyse des données cartographiques obtenues à modéliser les variations probables, sur 35 ans, de la valeur des services écosystémiques sous l’effet conjoint des pressions exercées sur les écosystèmes d’une part et des mesures de protection du Conservatoire du Littoral et de ses partenaires d’autre part. Les résultats montrent que les bénéfices de cette acquisition foncière sont de l’ordre de 73,4 millions d’euros sur la période 2015-2050, soit 2,1 millions d’euros par an. Ils offrent un plaidoyer rationnel en faveur de la protection des espaces naturels du Bassin d’Arcachon et permettent de motiver des choix de gestion futurs sur la zone. Même affaiblie par un manque de données locales et l’utilisation d’hypothèses critiquables inhérentes à la conduite des évaluations de services écosystémiques, cette approche offre des perspectives intéressantes pour co-construire avec les acteurs du territoire et sur la base d’arguments cartographiques et socioéconomiques une gestion durable et intégrée du Bassin d’Arcachon fondée sur le maintien des fonctions écologiques et des écosystèmes.
Faut-il génotyper « nos bonnes vaches » ? Une approche de la génomique par les contradictions
Authors: Mougenot Catherine , Gaillard Claire 
Published: December 2017

Grâce à une prise de sang, la SAM (Sélection assistée par marqueurs) peut produire une valeur estimée du potentiel de transmission des animaux d’élevage. Elle est depuis peu promue comme une nouvelle façon d’atteindre une élévation moyenne du progrès génétique. C’est cette « troisième révolution » de l’élevage, que nous avons voulu suivre à travers une enquête qualitative dans l’aire d’origine de la race bovine Montbéliarde (les départements du Jura et du Doubs en France). Face à l’introduction des outils génomiques pour la sélection, les personnes que nous avons rencontrées sont toutes partantes et toutes réticentes… La SAM met chacun à l’épreuve, mais chacun tente aussi d’y trouver son propre compte et ces contradictions sont progressivement devenues le fil rouge de notre enquête. Plutôt que les voir comme les preuves d’une argumentation logique chancelante, elles apparaissent comme des marques d’hésitations et de tensions et sont devenues pour nous des indices pour pister les conséquences de l’innovation en train de se faire.
La frontière Québec-Labrador : quels effets sur le développement des ressources et des populations du Nord?
Authors: Simard Martin 
Published: December 2017

À l’heure où les frontières étatiques semblent disparaître sous le poids des traités de libre-échange, la frontière entre le Québec et le Labrador soulève divers enjeux et défis pour le développement du Québec Nordique. Érigée en 1927, à la suite de l’avis du Conseil privé de Londres, cette délimitation interprovinciale est en partie contestée par le gouvernement du Québec. De plus, celle-ci demeure « la seule frontière interétatique de l’Amérique à n’être matérialisée sur le terrain par aucune borne ». Cette situation est problématique dans la mesure où l’immense gisement minier de la fosse du Labrador se retrouve à cheval sur la frontière. Malgré l’interconnexion des réseaux routier et ferroviaire ainsi que la libre circulation des biens et des personnes, la frontière instaure la coexistence de deux régimes légaux et fiscaux différents. Les secteurs frontaliers de Schefferville-Menihek, Labrador-City‒Fermont et Blanc-Sablon―L’Anse-au-clair vivent au quotidien les caprices de la géopolitique. Dans ce contexte, notre communication vise à discuter des effets de l’existence de cette frontière sur le développement des ressources et des populations du Nord. S’agit-il d’une ligne largement imaginaire ayant peu d’impacts sur la vie des citoyens et les pratiques des entreprises? Observe-t-on des expériences de concertation intergouvernementale ou des collaborations institutionnelles? Au contraire, pouvons-nous identifier de fuites commerciales ou des stratégies d’évasion fiscales des agents socioéconomiques? De manière générale, peut-on décrire la frontière terrestre entre le Québec et Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador comme étant un frein à une politique intégrée de développement du Nord de la péninsule du Québec-Labrador? Nous avons tenté de répondre à ces questions à l’aide de visites sur le terrain et d’entrevues auprès d’acteurs locaux. Nos résultats illustrent une réalité complexe faite autant d’échanges et de partenariats que de compétitions et de dédoublements de services.

La recherche à l’École Nationale Vétérinaire d’Alfort
Authors: Parodi André-Laurent 
Published: December 2017

Au cours des quatre dernières années, l’École nationale vétérinaire d’Alfort a entrepris une profonde restructuration de sa politique de recherche. Conduites à la faveur d’un regroupement des moyens au sein d’un nombre limité d’équipes de recherches mieux structurées, les recherches se développent autour de deux thématiques dominantes : la recherche clinique, centrée notamment sur les modèles animaux en partenariat avec la recherche bio-médicale, et l’hygiène, la qualité et la sécurité des aliments, en relation avec la santé au sein des productions animales.
L’objectif attendu, à travers le développement d’une recherche de qualité, est de permettre à l’École de se doter des structures de 3e cycle (DEA, habilitation à délivrer le Doctorat) nécessaires à la conduite d’une politique de formation par la recherche plus active et plus spécifique.
Éthique vétérinaire et relations internationales
Authors: Blancou Jean , Chillaud Thierry 
Published: December 2017

Veterinary ethics and international relationships.
The ethical rules applicable to various veterinary activities are determined, on a national level, by the responsible professional authorities. On an international level, it was important to attempt to harmonise these rules, in order to ensure that international trade in animals, animal products and in veterinary drugs takes place with maximum security. The recommendations made in this respect by the Office International des Epizooties, the Food and Agriculture Organization or the United Nations and the World Veterinary Association, are presented and discussed.
L’amélioration technique des conditions de vente au détail des denrées périssables
Authors: Gac André 
Published: December 2017

L’exposition des produits périssables réfrigérés, congelés ou surgelés en meubles de vente est le maillon le plus fragile de la chaîne de commercialisation de ces produits. La température des paquets dépend de divers facteurs :
- type et mode de gestion des meubles,
- nature des produits et leur situation dans le meuble,
- environnement du magasin,
- etc.
L’objet de l’exposé est de montrer comment la préservation des produits périssables peut être améliorée par modification de certains de ces facteurs.
Burn severity and regeneration in large forest fires: an analysis from Landsat time series
Authors: Martínez S. , Chuvieco E. , Aguado I. , Salas J. 
Published: December 2017

<p>The main objective of this study is to take a close look at post-fire recovery patterns in forestry areas under different burn severity conditions. We also investigate the time that forestry ecosystems take to recover their pre-fire condition. In this context, this study analyses both the level of severity in Uncastillo forest wildfire (7.664ha), one of the greatest occurred in Spain in 1994, and the pattern of natural recovery in the following decades (until 2014) using annual Landsat time series (sensors TM&amp;ETM+). Burn severity has been estimated by means of PROSPECT and GeoSAIL radiative transfer models following methodologies described in De Santis and Chuvieco (2009). On the other hand, recovery processes have been assessed from spectral profiles using the LandTrendr model (Landsat-based Detection of Trends in Disturbance and Recovery) (Kennedy et al., 2010). Results contribute to a further understanding of the post-fire evolution in forestry areas and to develop effective strategies for sustainable forest management.</p>
WRF-Chem simulated surface ozone over south Asia during the pre-monsoon: effects of emission inventories and chemical mechanisms
Authors: Sharma Amit , Ojha Narendra , Pozzer Andrea , Mar Kathleen A. , Beig Gufran , Lelieveld Jos , Gunthe Sachin S. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract. We evaluate numerical simulations of surface ozone mixing ratios over the south Asian region during the pre-monsoon season, employing three different emission inventories in the Weather Research and Forecasting model with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) with the second-generation Regional Acid Deposition Model (RADM2) chemical mechanism: the Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research – Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution (EDGAR-HTAP), the Intercontinental Chemical Transport Experiment phase B (INTEX-B) and the Southeast Asia Composition, Cloud, Climate Coupling Regional Study (SEAC4RS). Evaluation of diurnal variability in modelled ozone compared to observational data from 15 monitoring stations across south Asia shows the model ability to reproduce the clean, rural and polluted urban conditions over this region. In contrast to the diurnal average, the modelled ozone mixing ratios during noontime, i.e. hours of intense photochemistry (11:30–16:30 IST – Indian Standard Time – UTC +5:30), are found to differ among the three inventories. This suggests that evaluations of the modelled ozone limited to 24 h average are insufficient to assess uncertainties associated with ozone buildup. HTAP generally shows 10–30 ppbv higher noontime ozone mixing ratios than SEAC4RS and INTEX-B, especially over the north-west Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP), central India and southern India. The HTAP simulation repeated with the alternative Model for Ozone and Related Chemical Tracers (MOZART) chemical mechanism showed even more strongly enhanced surface ozone mixing ratios due to vertical mixing of enhanced ozone that has been produced aloft. Our study indicates the need to also evaluate the O3 precursors across a network of stations and the development of high-resolution regional inventories for the anthropogenic emissions over south Asia accounting for year-to-year changes to further reduce uncertainties in modelled ozone over this region.
Feasibility study of multi-pixel retrieval of optical thickness and droplet effective radius of inhomogeneous clouds using deep learning
Authors: Okamura Rintaro , Iwabuchi Hironobu , Schmidt K. Sebastian 
Published: December 2017

Abstract. Three-dimensional (3-D) radiative-transfer effects are a major source of retrieval errors in satellite-based optical remote sensing of clouds. The challenge is that 3-D effects manifest themselves across multiple satellite pixels, which traditional single-pixel approaches cannot capture. In this study, we present two multi-pixel retrieval approaches based on deep learning, a technique that is becoming increasingly successful for complex problems in engineering and other areas. Specifically, we use deep neural networks (DNNs) to obtain multi-pixel estimates of cloud optical thickness and column-mean cloud droplet effective radius from multispectral, multi-pixel radiances. The first DNN method corrects traditional bispectral retrievals based on the plane-parallel homogeneous cloud assumption using the reflectances at the same two wavelengths. The other DNN method uses so-called convolutional layers and retrieves cloud properties directly from the reflectances at four wavelengths. The DNN methods are trained and tested on cloud fields from large-eddy simulations used as input to a 3-D radiative-transfer model to simulate upward radiances. The second DNN-based retrieval, sidestepping the bispectral retrieval step through convolutional layers, is shown to be more accurate. It reduces 3-D radiative-transfer effects that would otherwise affect the radiance values and estimates cloud properties robustly even for optically thick clouds.

Abstract. Blowing snow impacts Antarctic ice sheet surface mass balance by snow redistribution and sublimation. However, numerical models poorly represent blowing snow processes, while direct observations are limited in space and time. Satellite retrieval of blowing snow is hindered by clouds and only the strongest events are considered. Here, we develop a blowing snow detection (BSD) algorithm for ground-based remote-sensing ceilometers in polar regions and apply it to ceilometers at Neumayer III and Princess Elisabeth (PE) stations, East Antarctica. The algorithm is able to detect (heavy) blowing snow layers reaching 30 m height. Results show that 78 % of the detected events are in agreement with visual observations at Neumayer III station. The BSD algorithm detects heavy blowing snow 36 % of the time at Neumayer (2011–2015) and 13 % at PE station (2010–2016). Blowing snow occurrence peaks during the austral winter and shows around 5 % interannual variability. The BSD algorithm is capable of detecting blowing snow both lifted from the ground and occurring during precipitation, which is an added value since results indicate that 92 % of the blowing snow is during synoptic events, often combined with precipitation. Analysis of atmospheric meteorological variables shows that blowing snow occurrence strongly depends on fresh snow availability in addition to wind speed. This finding challenges the commonly used parametrizations, where the threshold for snow particles to be lifted is a function of wind speed only. Blowing snow occurs predominantly during storms and overcast conditions, shortly after precipitation events, and can reach up to 1300 m a. g. l.  in the case of heavy mixed events (precipitation and blowing snow together). These results suggest that synoptic conditions play an important role in generating blowing snow events and that fresh snow availability should be considered in determining the blowing snow onset.
When the American Dream Stops: New Challenges after DACA for ELT University Students in Mexico
Authors: Angel Rosalina Dominguez 
Published: December 2017

In recent years, thousands of children and young people have been repatriated from the United States to Mexico. Their parents decided to return to their country of origin and not to host them to the DACA (deferred action for childhood arrivals) program. The objective of this paper is double: first, to characterize the different profiles of young students who return to Mexico after having studied some or all grades of their basic and upper secondary education in the United States and who are repatriated to take up their university studies; and secondly the challenges in scholastic and social issues are analyzed, those that students face in their attempt to attend higher education in another country. The results suggest that having a space for these students in the Mexican educational system is not enough, it is necessary to develop programs that facilitate the inclusion of these young people both in the school and in the social context.
Food Allergen Labeling: A Latin American Approach
Authors: Lopez Maria Cristina 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Food allergy is a public health concern almost all over the world. Although most of the countries that regulate the declaration of allergens in prepackaged foods include the list recommended by the Codex Alimentarius, some countries have added other allergens to this list due to prevalence data and regional incidence, whereas others have incorporated exceptions for some products derived from allergenic foods. Within this context, the situation in Latin America regarding these regulations is diverse. Data about prevalence of food hypersensitivity are very limited in the region. The countries that have established regulations are Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Chile, Mexico, and Venezuela. Argentina has approved a regulation for the labeling of food allergens in November 2016. It only needs to be published in the Official Bulletin to go into effect. All countries follow the Codex list that includes latex and excludes sulfites, except Brazil. On the other hand, Argentina is the only country that includes exceptions. As for the methodologies for the detection of allergens in foods, this issue is a serious problem for both the food industry and control laboratories. Available methodologies are based mainly on commercial ELISA kits; currently, there are no Latin American companies that produce them, so ELISA kits are expensive and their acquisition is complicated. There is an initiative in Argentina to address all these gaps in the region through the Platform of Food Allergens (PFA), a nonprofit organization that integrates health professionals, patients, representatives of the food industry, government, and scientists. The different actions carried out by the PFA have made it possible to contact different scientific groups from other Latin American countries in order to expand this initiative and thereby promote and strengthen both public and private capacities in the region.
Action Levels for Food Allergens: An Approach for Official Food Control in Germany
Authors: Waiblinger Hans-Ulrich , Schulze Gesine 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Official food control laboratories in Germany have established internal action values for the assessment of analytical results of food allergens especially obtained from samples without declaration of the specified allergen. A pragmatic approach was chosen considering the current situation for European food information legislation. Accordingly, when a positive result is obtained for an unlabeled allergen, it is not necessarily an irregularity if it can be demonstrated that the result was caused by cross-contamination. Action values take into account current analytical experiences as well as published allergologic reference doses. They are considered as internal de minimis thresholds by food control authorities that are used to support laboratories in the decision-making process and when a written expert opinion is requested by an enforcement authority. If only minor traces are detected at concentrations below the action values, further investigation of the issue and inspections at the location of manufacture can be abandoned. The present report includes a collection of results from official food control laboratories in Germany that have been evaluated in line with the aforementioned system of action levels.
