Composite Treatment for Primary Long-bone Hydatidosis
Authors: Banerjee Samik , Sabui Kanchan Kumar , Mondal Jayanta , Nath Chinmoy , Pal Dilip Kumar 
Published: December 2012

Hydatid disease is a parasitic tapeworm infection caused by the
Echinococcus
species. Involvement of the long tubular bones is rare in hydatid bone disease. Patients are initially asymptomatic and usually present at a later stage of the disease when the bony lesions are extensive. Diagnosing bone hydatid disease is challenging, even in endemic regions, and a high index of suspicion is required because the radiologic findings often mimic other bone pathologies. Recurrence following treatment can occur after a long period of quiescence.

This article describes a case of hydatid disease in a 62-year-old woman with extensive diaphyseal tibial involvement. She was treated with initial chemotherapy followed by extended curettage, polymethylmethacrylate cementation, and intramedullary fixation. Functional outcome was excellent, with no recurrence at 60-month follow-up. She was fully weight bearing with no pain or discomfort and had full hip, knee, and ankle range of motion.
This case was important due to its rarity, the diagnostic challenge it presented, and the composite nature of the treatment used to avoid recurrence. Diaphyseal bone hydatidosis can be initially treated like a low-grade malignant tumor with curettage and high-speed burring, followed by filling the defect with polymethylmethacrylate cement. The composite treatment of chemotherapy with the surgical protocol described offers a reasonable chance of long-term disease suppression. Recurrent disease can be treated with repeat curettage and cementation. Wide excision with reconstruction of the resulting defect should only be considered for recalcitrant diaphyseal hydatid disease.
Beroep op die skrif in die vorm van etiese standpunte, Deel 2: ’n Etiese verstaan van die vrou in die Bybel
Authors: Rheeder Adriaan L. 
Published: December 2012

In ’n vorige artikel is beredeneer dat die grammaties-historiese metode van Skrifuitleg as kreatuurlike geskrif nie meer voldoende is vir alleengebruik in Skrifvertolking nie en dat dit met ander uitgangspunte aangevul moet word. In aansluiting by twee hermeneutiese uitgangspunte wat in ’n vorige artikel behandel is (Rheeder), word in hierdie artikel ’n verdere drie hermeneutiese vertrekpunte bespreek, naamlik teenkultuur, nie-wetenskaplike skopus en moreel-etiese vertolking. Die teenkulturele vertrekpunt gaan uit van die oortuiging dat outentieke getuienis in die Skrif gevind word in dit wat verskil (afwyk) van die omliggende antieke kultuur, terwyl die nie-wetenskaplike skopus vertrekpunt uit gaan van die standpunt dat wetenskaplike (of empiriese) kennis in die Bybel buite die skopus of bedoeling van die Skrif staan. Die moreel-teologiese vertolking as vertrekpunt van die standpunt uitgaan dat ’n moreel-teologiese beoordeling van liefde die keuse tussen twee konflikterende, maar beide aanvaarbare, interpretasies moet begelei. Daar word tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat ’n etiese verstaan van die posisie van die vrou beteken dat die vrou as gelykwaardig aan die man beskou en so behandel moet word, wat beteken dat die vrou, net soos die man, tot enige amp in die kerk toegelaat mag word.Appeal to Scriptures in the formation of an ethical point of view: An ethical understanding of women in the Bible. In a previous article it was argued that the grammatical-historical method of Bible exposition was no longer sufficient as sole method and should be supplemented with other hermeneutical points of departure. Following the discussion of two hermeneutical points in a previous article (Rheeder), this article will discuss three other hermeneutical points of departure, namely counterculture, non-scientific scope and moral-ethical interpretation. The counter-cultural point of departure is based on the belief that authentic witness in Scripture is found in that which is different (that which deviates) from the surrounding ancient culture, while a non-scientific scope starts from the view that scientific (or empirical) knowledge in the Bible is outside the scope or intent of Scripture. The point of departure of the moral-theological interpretation is the view that a moral-theological evaluation of love should inform the choice between two conflicting but mutually acceptable interpretations. It is concluded that an ethical understanding of women in the Bible means that women should be regarded and treated as equal to men, which leads to the further conclusion that all offices in the church should be open to women.
Résidus médicamenteux et eau destinée à la consommation humaine
Authors: Deblonde Tiphanie , Dreyer Marion , Hartemann Philippe 
Published: December 2012

La France est un grand consommateur de produits pharmaceutiques à usage humain, avec en moyenne 48 boîtes par an et par habitant pour 2011. La mise en évidence dans les années 1980 de molécules à visée thérapeutique dans les eaux usées a mis en exergue cette pollution. Depuis, de nombreuses publications sur le sujet ont montré que la plupart des milieux aqueux contiennent des résidus médicamenteux. L’industrie pharmaceutique, l’excrétion par le patient, les rejets par les établissements de soins et la mise à l’évier des médicaments non consommés sont les sources de cette pollution. Ces différents effluents arrivent généralement dans des stations d’épuration non conçues pour éliminer les polluants d’origine organique. Pour certaines classes thérapeutiques, les stations d’épuration ont un rendement d’élimination plus élevé que d’autres ; par exemple, pour les antidépresseurs, le rendement est de l’ordre de 90-100 %, les antibiotiques d’environ 50 %, alors que les antiépileptiques ne sont pas éliminés. Le rejet quotidien de ces molécules leur confère une pseudo-persistance dans l’environnement. En effet, certaines molécules comme le Clofibrate ou la Codéine ont une demi-vie supérieure à 365 jours alors que pour d’autres, comme le Paracétamol, cette demi-vie est inférieure à un jour. D’après un rapport du laboratoire National de Recherche et d’Hydrologie, environ 14 molécules pharmaceutiques sont retrouvées dans les eaux destinées à la consommation humaine (EDCH) et la provenance de l’eau (souterraine ou superficielle) n’a pas d’influence sur la nature des molécules retrouvées mais seulement sur les quantités. Les concentrations maximales retrouvées dans l’EDCH sont nettement inférieures aux doses thérapeutiques ; cependant, des études sur les effets chroniques de ces molécules à faibles doses semblent nécessaires ainsi qu’une politique préférentielle de molécule ayant le plus faible impact écotoxicologique à efficacité thérapeutique identique.
The Houses That Cried
Authors: Parnell Jo (Joan-Annette) 
Published: December 2012

This essay revisits physically and metaphysically the houses of the author's childhood, in an attempt to discover and recover a sense of self from the architecture of her past. From suburban houses in the Eastern and South Western suburbs of Sydney, to the Gothic turrets of Dalwood Children’s Home on the Northern Beaches (which, in the 1930s and 1940s was advertised as ‘The House on Happiness Hill’) and to a foster home now found to have a Child Safety House sign on the front veranda, the discrepancies of time and memory are conjured up in narrative, and hand-drawn image and photography.
Reconstruction personnelle et critique sociale. Enjeux politiques de la réinsertion des anciens combattants par l’agriculture
Authors: Doidy Eric 
Published: December 2012

Certains dispositifs actuels de prise en charge de personnes ayant des troubles mentaux promeuvent l’idée que le travail de la terre peut exercer un effet thérapeutique. L’expression de telles attentes envers l’agriculture n’est-elle qu’une simple réinvention contemporaine de formes de contrôle social, ou ouvre-t-elle au contraire une nouvelle perspective de libération ? Telle est la question que se propose d’éclaircir l’article, à partir du cas de la réinsertion, en Californie, d’anciens combattants ayant développé un syndrome de stress post-traumatique. L’article s’intéresse d’abord aux acteurs qui investissent ces dispositifs et promeuvent ces représentations, en montrant que certains y trouvent une niche pour développer une offre thérapeutique centrée sur le soi et désinvestissant le politique. Mais l’observation ethnographique d’une association de réinsertion de vétérans et une série d’entretiens semi-directifs avec ces vétérans nous montrent que, dans l’expérience de ces derniers, la recherche de mieux-être personnel a partie liée avec la reconquête d’un engagement citoyen. L’article tente alors de comprendre les conditions qui permettent à ce collectif d’articuler la recherche d’accomplissement personnel à une prise de parole politique. Il entend ainsi ouvrir des pistes pour comprendre la manière dont l’individu peut être replacé au coeur de la critique sociale.
Le projet dans les recompositions des politiques de santé mentale
Authors: Eyraud Benoît , Vidal-Naquet Pierre A. 
Published: December 2012

Les politiques psychiatriques et les politiques sociales se rejoignent aujourd’hui
autour d’un principe qui consiste à mettre la personne et son projet de vie au centre des
interventions dans une perspective de « rétablissement ». L’article interroge la manière
dont ce principe est appliqué dans des programmes d’intervention en direction de personnes
ayant des troubles psychiques graves. À partir de l’analyse d’une étude de cas, nous tirons
des enseignements épistémologiques et politiques quant au rôle de la notion de « projet de
vie » dans les recompositions du champ de la santé mentale.

Syssitia
Authors: Nafissi Massimo 
Published: December 2012

Abstract

The Greeks generally called
syssitia
the common messes of citizens and of public or sacred officials. The best known are the citizens' messes of Sparta (allegedly named at first
andreia
,
syskenia
, and
philitia
in Xenophon; elsewhere often
ph(e)iditia
). Here and in Cretan cities messmates formed a basic subunit of the citizen body.
Thrasyboulos, Athenian democrat
Authors: Shear Julia L. 
Published: December 2012

Abstract

Thrasyboulos, the son of Lykos, of the Athenian deme Steiria (not to be confused with his contemporary Thrasyboulos of Kollytos), was probably born between 450 and 445
BCE
and was killed at Aspendos in 389.
Helots
Authors: Scott Andrew G. , Figueira Thomas J. 
Published: December 2012

Abstract

The Helots were the servile agricultural work force of Spartan full citizens, the Spartiates or
Homoioi
. Helotage allowed Sparta to achieve a paradigmatic hoplite polity, with an army of elite soldiers who were freed from economic concerns, and who grew in number down to 465. Concomitantly, the politicization of the main subsistence processes in Lakonia subsidized the creation of a strong, yet brittle, social structure. The Helots provided rents that are described both as substantial fixed amounts and as 50% of their production (e.g., Tyr. fr. 6W; Plut.
Lyc
. 8.4, 24.3). The rents underwrote Spartiate dues to their common messes, a prerequisite of citizenship. The ratio of Helots to Spartiates is controversial, perhaps 3–5 to 1 at the Spartiates' apogee, and with a greater disproportion when Spartiate oliganthropy set in. Therefore, the Helots were numerous enough to create internal security risks and to constrain Spartan foreign policy (cf. Thuc. 4.80.3). Despite the freedom that Helotage provided the Spartiates, Aristotle (
Pol
. 1269a34–b12) believed that this was a problematic system, and the institution itself was warmly debated (cf. Alcidamas fr. 3A).

Lead
Authors: Brown Heather 
Published: December 2012

Abstract

Lead (Pb,
plumbum
) is a soft, dense, corrosion‐resistant metal used for a wide variety of purposes in the ancient world. Its ores frequently contain Silver, and it was primarily mined, until the Roman period, for the extraction of silver. Despite the widespread occurrence of lead ores, exploitation was dependent on economic factors, including the richness of silver content, depth of deposit, proximity to sea transport, and availability of labor.
Temple treasuries (tamieion, tamiai)
Authors: Chankowski Véronique 
Published: December 2012

AbstractTemple treasuries possessed very important assets accumulated in coin and other forms. Since this wealth was generally plundered during the past, we know of such reserves only through literary texts and inscriptions. The treasures of the gods were usually placed under the responsibility of treasurers, who typically had to account for their management to local urban authorities.
Tessera numularia
Authors: Andreau Jean 
Published: December 2012

AbstractThetesserae numulariaare small rods of bone or ivory, between 3 and 10 cm long, which consist of a rectangular parallelepiped body and ahead the shape of which varies from one period to another. We do not know their Latin name; they are called tesserae numularia because of the research of Herzog (1919), who concluded that they had been attached to sealed sacks of coins.
Villa
Authors: Marzano Annalisa 
Published: December 2012

AbstractIn Latin the word villa refers to a mansion located outside the urban perimeter, which included land (called eitherfundusorpraedium), and was provided with a residential part (pars urbana) and service quarters (pars rustica) with agricultural production facilities, such as presses for wine and olive oil, threshing floors, but also kilns for producing bricks and tiles if the estate had the appropriate natural resources.
Weights and measures, Roman
Authors: Duncan‐Jones R. P. 
Published: December 2012

AbstractMeasures were needed in early societies, because of inheritance and market exchange. Dividing a farm between heirs meant assessing its size. And grain could only be exchanged or paid in tax if the amounts could be identified. Originally gourds or animal skins might be used as units of capacity. Different advances led to the invention of geometry, literally “land‐measurement,” together with artificial containers for measuring capacity, as well as weights and balances.
Germanicus' visit to Egypt

Abstract

In early January of 19
CE
, Germanicus (15
BCE
–19
CE
), the nephew and adopted son of the emperor Tiberius, interrupted his political mission in the Roman dominions of Eastern Anatolia and the Near East for a visit to Alexandria and Egypt. The historian Tacitus, our main source for the prince's journey, claims in his
Annates
(2.59–61) that while Germanicus' official motive was his concern (
cura
) for the province, he actually just wanted to study the country's antiquities.
Law, Greco‐Roman Egypt
Authors: Yiftach‐Firanko Uri 
Published: December 2012

Abstract
In the Ptolemaic period, royal legislation had the ultimate legal authority. What the king decreed had to be followed, notwithstanding any conflicting provisions elsewhere. Yet no Ptolemaic king aimed at creating an exhaustive law code, covering all aspects of everyday legal activities, comparable to those available in Greek city‐states: rather, in the sphere of private law, royal legislation focused on key issues, whose regulation was indispensable for the country's peace and prosperity, as well as for the administration of justice.
Naukratis
Authors: Villing Alexandra 
Published: December 2012

AbstractNaukratis, the Greekpolis, trading post (Emporion), and Egyptian town, was the earliest Greek settlement in Egypt. Occupied from the seventh centuryBCEto the Middle Ages, it was the main trading port in the western Nile Delta until the Hellenistic period and a major point of Greek–Egyptian intersection. Situated on the eastern bank of the Canopic branch of the Nile between Alexandria and Memphis, it belonged to the district of the Saite capital Sais, some 20 km to its east. The Greek toponym Naukratis, first attested epigraphically in the first half of the sixth centuryBCE, may be a transcript of one of the town's Egyptian names,Nokradj, documented since 554BCEand possibly of Libyan origin.
Papyrology
Authors: van Minnen Peter 
Published: December 2012

AbstractPapyrology is the study of ancient ink‐written texts on Papyrus (plural: papyri) and other writing materials, such as potsherds (ostraca) and tablets. The bulk of these papyrological texts are written on papyrus and derive from Egypt. For practical reasons, tablets with text scratched on them are not usually regarded as papyrological (except those from Egypt), whereas early (often fragmentary) parchment manuscripts (mainly from Egypt) usually are.
Writing materials

Epigraphy, Greek; Epigraphy, Latin; Epigraphy, Pharaonic Egypt), Papyrus, animal skin (especially parchment), wood, metal, clay, bone, ivory, and textiles. Papyrus and parchment, in roll and codex format, were used on a large scale for record‐keeping and book production in the Greco‐Roman world.
Androtion
Authors: Harding Phillip E. 
Published: December 2012

AbstractAndrotion (ca. 410–340BCE) was an Athenian politician and author from a wealthy family, which owned property in the deme Gargettos, in the Mesogaia. His father, Andron, may have been a member of the Four Hundred oligarchs who ruled Athens in 410/9. Androtion himself is reported to have studied under the rhetorician Isocrates, but corroborating evidence is lacking.

Abstract

Historia Augusta
(
HA
) is the conventional modern title given to a collection of thirty biographies of Roman emperors and usurpers, spanning the period from Hadrian (117
CE
) to Numerian (285); in actuality there are seventy individuals whose lives are treated, as several of the later biographies each encompass multiple persons (e.g., the three Gordians).
Quintilian
Authors: Fantham Elaine 
Published: December 2012

Abstract

Born (ca. 40
CE
; died ca. 96) in Calagurris, Spain, Quintilian (Marcus Fabius Quintilianus) came to Rome as a teenager to study rhetoric with Domitius Afer: he practiced as an advocate under Vespasian (70–79), who appointed him to a salaried chair in Rhetoric. He spoke before Titus' mistress, Queen Berenike of Judaea, in what may have been a domestic hearing (
Institutio
4.1.19). He lost his young wife and both sons as children (
Inst
. 6 preface). He was a distinguished teacher, counting Pliny the Younger and Domitian's nephews among his pupils. A cultural conservative and almost unquestioning admirer of Cicero, he composed a work around 89 on the causes of corruption in rhetorical style: it did not survive.

Antigonos I Monophthalmos
Authors: Meeus Alexander 
Published: December 2012

AbstractAntigonos Monophthalmos (ca. 382–301BCE), a Macedonian nobleman, served the Macedonian kings Philip II and Alexander III, the great, as general, and later became one of the main contenders in the Wars of the Successors (seeSuccessors, Wars of). The nickname Monophthalmos (“the One‐Eyed”) was given him after he lost an eye in battle at an unknown time. Antigonos likely married Stratonike, his only known wife, rather late in life, as their oldest son, Demetrios, was not born until 336, their second son Philippos being born not much later (Plut.Demetr. 2.1–2).
Antigonos III Doson
Authors: Kralli Ioanna

AbstractAntigonos III (r. 229–221BCE), nephew of Antigonos Ii Gonatas and grandson of Demetriosi Poliorketes, ascended to the Macedonian throne initially as regent for the minor Philipv of Macedon, son of Demetrios II (hence perhaps the epithetDoson: “he who will give”). Doson married Philip's mother and adopted the boy, thus assuring Philip's succession and proving his own loyalty to the Antigonid Dynasty.
