Brazilian students in Coimbra: The Academic volunteer Battalion and the defense of liberalism in Portugal (1826–1828)
Authors: Oliveira Kelly Eleutério Machado 
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this research paper is to discuss the participation of Brazilian students enlisted in the Academic volunteer Battalion of Coimbra (1826-1828). Starting from the analysis of nominative lists, correspondence, registry books from the General Police Superintendency’s Office, memories, among others – documentation deposited at the National Archive of Torre do Tombo, National Library of Portugal, and at the Historical Archive of the University of Coimbra – we intend to investigate the bonds that brought together Portuguese and Brazilian in defense of the Constitutional Charter and the legitimacy of Don Pedro I (IV of Portugal) to the Portuguese throne. The letters from Sátiro Mariano Leitão, from Maranhão, suggest that the Brazilian students enlisted in the Battalion to defend liberalism more than to, necessarily, suggest projects of union between the two crowns, even though there were interests in that direction. Thus, it was necessary to defend a monarch who could guarantee the constitutional regime and stop the advance of absolutism embodied, in this Portuguese scenario, in Don Miguel.
L’« alignement pédagogique » : un arbre qui cache la forêt ?
Authors: Romainville Marc 
Published: June 2024

Avancé généralement comme une exigence normative requise pour tout dispositif de formation, le concept d’« alignement pédagogique » présente un taux de pénétration remarquable dans les écrits sur l’enseignement supérieur de ces dernières années. L’objectif de l’article est de poser un regard critique sur cette irrésistible ascension d’un concept qui, au vu de son dévoiement par rapport à ses intentions initiales, s’avère en définitive peu innovant et dispensable, voire dommageable dès lors qu’il exonérerait de soulever des questions plus essentielles pour l’analyse des dispositifs de formation de l’enseignement supérieur.
Intransigeants ou réticents ?

Au même titre que l’ensemble des sphères et institutions sociales, l’enseignement agronomique est l’objet de tensions quant à sa prise en charge des enjeux environnementaux. L’objet de cet article est de montrer comment les étudiants des écoles publiques d’ingénieurs agronomes prennent part à ces tensions et envisagent les enjeux de transition écologique de leur formation et depuis leur formation. L’enquête que nous avons menée auprès de ces étudiants (n = 1 157) visait à identifier leurs visions de la transition et les préoccupations et connaissances associées à celle-ci. Au-delà de l’apparente unanimité des répondants quant à l’inquiétude relative pour leur avenir et au souhait d’un renforcement d’une dynamique de transition écologique, trois profils d’étudiants agronomes se distinguent : les uns envisagent la transition comme une rupture devant impérativement être engagée avec l’ordre existant (type 1), d’autres la ressentent au contraire comme une injonction extérieure (type 3) tandis qu’un groupe intermédiaire se montre à la fois confiant dans les capacités de réforme et sensible aux limites du système (type 2). Nous détaillons les positions de ces types idéaux qui invitent à questionner le poids quantitatif d’une protestation étudiante écologiste parmi les élèves ingénieurs agronomes.
Les fermes des établissements de formation agricole publics, un lieu pour apprendre à naviguer dans le trouble et transiter vers l’agroécologie
Authors: Cayre Patrice , Rigolot Cyrille , Herbemont Pauline 
Published: June 2024

Au cœur du dispositif d’enseignement agricole, les fermes des établissements sont aujourd’hui un avant-poste face aux crises écologiques. Ces fermes sont le lieu d’importantes frictions, entre des injonctions institutionnelles parfois contradictoires, et les intérêts variés de leurs travailleurs et partenaires. À partir d’un protocole d’enquêtes pragmatiques original, basé sur des entretiens approfondis de travailleurs et de partenaires de six fermes d’établissements, cet article propose de mettre à jour ces frictions mais également les diplomaties qui peuvent apparaître entre les êtres humains et non-humains qui peuplent ces fermes. Plutôt que viser une restitution exhaustive, les résultats sont présentés sous forme de trois récits, de façon à rendre compte finement des cheminements personnels, des émotions et tensions vécues sur les exploitations. Le premier récit, sur la ferme du lycée agricole d’Aurillac (15), montre comment une réalité moderne fondée sur un rationalisme « naturaliste » vient percuter le projet agroécologique dans les interactions de la directrice d’exploitation avec ses partenaires ; le second récit à Merval (76) illustre une agroécologie qui passe par le renoncement, la frugalité et la convivialité, impliquant un engagement du corps et des sens et une recomposition du monde économique de l’exploitation ; de retour à Aurillac, le troisième récit ouvre de nouvelles perspectives pour la transition vers un monde où les êtres humains et non humains s’entremêlent et communiquent entre eux. Ensemble, ces trois récits donnent à voir un pluralisme ontologique dessinant une réalité à « géométrie variable » (Latour 2015). Pour éprouver le travail de diplomatie au cœur de ce pluralisme ontologique, les fermes des établissements pourraient être redéfinies comme des lieux d’expérimentation pour et avec les publics en formation, la communauté éducative et les partenaires agricoles et non-agricoles (« territoire écoles »). L’apprentissage par l’expérience permis par ces fermes est d’autant plus central qu’il se fait en situation de troubles, où il faut apprendre à naviguer avec les crises écologiques et ses aléas.
« Une houlette peinte et dorée » : quelques réflexions sur la place de la littérature pastorale dans les contes de Madame d’Aulnoy
Authors: Macé Stéphane 
Published: June 2024

Les emprunts des Contes de Mme d’Aulnoy à la littérature pastorale, particulièrement nombreux, ont depuis longtemps attiré l’attention du discours critique. Cette contribution tente, au‑delà des simples emprunts thématiques ou du recours à un lexique caractéristique du monde des bergers, de mettre en évidence certaines techniques d’écriture précises (antonomase du nom propre, utilisation des déictiques spatiaux, emplois de tours phraséologiques…). Dans un deuxième temps, elle propose un parallèle entre la structure narrative du Nain Jaune et celle d’un roman mineur du xviie siècle, Le Silène insensé de Coignée de Bourron (1613). Le dernier volet de cette étude envisage les interventions de l’instance narratoriale sur un mode pathétique (adresses au personnage, énoncés exclamatifs en forme de commentaires), qui ne sont pas en soi typiques du genre pastoral, mais dont le grand modèle de L’Astrée a généralisé l’emploi dans la prose narrative et dont Mme d’Aulnoy use à son tour volontiers pour établir des contrastes de tonalité. Envisagée dans ces trois dimensions, l’innutrition pastorale révèle chez notre conteuse une vaste culture et une remarquable finesse d’oreille.
D’enclos en villa. Vivre au bord de la baie des Veys, de La Tène au Bas-Empire
Authors: Coupard François , Carpentier Vincent , Barbier-Pain Delphine , Dietsch-Sellami Marie-France , Dupont Catherine 
Published: June 2024

La baie des Veys, dont l’incision forme l’isthme du Cotentin, à la rencontre des départements de la Manche et du Calvados, est devenue au cours de l’Antiquité une zone de grand passage à la frontière des cités unelle et bajocasse. Des années 1980 à nos jours, l’exploration archéologique de ce secteur, essentiellement accomplie dans le cadre préventif, a mis en lumière l’histoire ancienne de cet espace dont la première mise en valeur agricole remonte au Néolithique et à l’âge du Bronze. Cependant, le peuplement et l’organisation de ce territoire connaissent un essor remarquable au cours du second âge du Fer et du Haut-Empire qui a surtout affecté – semble-t-il – les plateaux surplombant la baie. Diagnostiqué puis fouillé de 2006 à 2013, le site du Tuilley, à Isigny-sur-Mer, est inscrit au cœur de cet espace et présente un environnement archéologique documenté sur quelque 21,5 ha. À l’unisson des autres occupations étudiées dans la région, on y observe le déploiement de plusieurs habitats enclos au cours de La Tène moyenne et finale, puis le prolongement de cette occupation sous des formes différentes aux deux premiers siècles de notre ère, une grande villa romaine établie face à la mer, dotée d’une grande galerie panoramique longue de 71 m, à laquelle est associée un petit établissement agricole établi en contrebas. Abandonnée vers la fin du iie ou le début du iiie s. au plus tard, la villa du Tuilley est ensuite exploitée en carrière et entièrement démantelée au cours des iiie-ive s., probablement à la faveur d’un programme de construction présidant à la naissance de la petite agglomération portuaire d’Isigny-sur-Mer dont l’existence n’est à ce jour attestée qu’à partir du Moyen Âge. Les occupations laténiennes et romaines du site du Tuilley témoignent par ailleurs de l’évolution qu’a connue l’interaction des riverains avec la baie et l’espace maritime en général. Au cours de La Tène, les habitats enclos ne montrent aucun signe de relation spécifique avec la côte. Cette situation change clairement à l’époque romaine, avec la construction d’une grande villa de bord de mer, comparable à de nombreux établissements côtiers à travers l’ensemble des provinces de l’Empire, et l’apparition des premiers témoins de pratiques halieutiques et de consommation des produits de la mer.
Advancements and challenges in natural language processing in oral cancer research: A narrative review
Authors: Aggarwal Dipanshu , Pallavi Kriti 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT
Oral cancer is a serious and often fatal disease that requires early detection and treatment for improved outcomes. Natural language processing (NLP) has emerged as a promising tool for improving the diagnosis and management of oral cancer. In this review, we examine the advancements and challenges in NLP in oral cancer research. We comprehensively searched electronic databases of PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science by using search terms “natural language processing” AND “head and neck cancer” OR “oral cancer” OR “oral oncology” OR “oral squamous cell carcinoma” OR “oral potentially malignant disorders” and identified 112 articles initially and finally included 8 relevant studies. The search was unrestricted; we searched literature between January 2014 and April 2023. The inclusion criteria included studies on the application of NLP in oral cancer. We excluded articles that focused on species other than humans, non-English literature, and the non-availability of full texts of the articles. In addition, a manual search of the references of relevant articles was done; however, we did not search Google, proceedings of meetings, and grey literature. Our review highlights the potential applications of NLP in oral cancer research, including risk assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. NLP techniques have been shown to advance the precision and efficiency of diagnosing carcinoma of the oral cavity by extracting and analyzing relevant information from clinical notes and radiology reports. Moreover, NLP-based approaches have been used to identify novel biomarkers and genetic mutations associated with oral cancer, enabling the development of personalized treatment strategies. Despite the many advancements in NLP, several challenges remain. These include technical issues, such as data standardization and algorithm development, as well as ethical considerations related to patient privacy and data security. In conclusion, NLP has tremendous potential in oral cancer research, and further studies are needed to exploit its capabilities and overcome its challenges fully.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
The magnitude and pattern of cancer cases vary across different hospital-based cancer registries (HBCRs) in India. Currently, the clinical and epidemiological profiles of cancer cases are not available for the North Malabar region of Kerala, India.

Objectives:
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the magnitude and pattern of cancer cases in the North Malabar region of Kerala, India. The secondary objective was to evaluate the trends of cancer cases based on 10-year HBCR data from a tertiary cancer center in the North Malabar region of Kerala, India.

Materials and Methods:
This retrospective observational study was conducted on patients who were registered at the HBCR of Malabar Cancer Center in the northern region of Kerala. The demographic and clinical profile of patients with cancer who registered at the HBCR between January 2010 and December 2019 was obtained using a prescribed format developed by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data, and a line diagram was used to represent the trends of the five most common cancers in males and females.

Results:
Between 2010 and 2019, 38,836 patients were registered. Among them, 20,829 (53.6%) were males and 18,017 (46.4%) were females. Lung cancer was the most common cancer among males and breast cancer was the most common cancer among females. The median age at diagnosis of lung cancer was 64 years (interquartile range [IQR], 58-70). Similarly, the median age at diagnosis of breast cancer was 52 years (IQR, 44-60).

Conclusion:
The five most common sites of cancer among males were the lung, mouth, stomach, tongue, and larynx. In females, the most common cancers were breast, cervix uteri, ovary, mouth, and lung. During these ten years, the common cancers in both males and females showed an upward trend.

Authors: Sikandar Basheerahamed J. , Kavitha K. 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Adolescents are at risk of various psychosocial problems, due to pressure from parents, educational agencies, peers, and society. Often, it is not recognized and goes unnoticed. There is an immense need to screen this group for early detection and proper management.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of psychosocial problems among adolescents and to determine their risk factors.

Methodology:
The study employed a nonexperimental, exploratory, cross-sectional research design with a quantitative approach. Using a two-stage random sampling technique, a total of 2030 adolescents from 37 schools were chosen. The data collection tool for study participants consisted of three parts: (a) A sociodemographic proforma, (b) a pediatric symptom checklist-youth report, and (c) a checklist for assessing determinants of psychosocial problems.

Results:
Three hundred five (15.02%) of the 2030 respondents had significant impairment to internalizing problems, 350 (17.24%) to attention deficit problems, and 378 (18.62%) to externalizing problems. Pediatric symptom checklist scores and academic performance showed a moderately positive correlation. There is a significant association between psychosocial problems and adolescent characteristics at a P = 0.05 level of significance.

Conclusion:
Adolescents have a high prevalence of psychosocial problems such as anxiety and attention deficit. Periodic screening, counseling, and referral to psychotherapy can help to lessen the severity of the condition and improve psychosocial well-being.

Teachers’ Perspectives on Behavioral and Emotional Problems among School-going Adolescents in Kashmir: Examining the Risk Correlates of Behavioral and Emotional Problems
Authors: Dar Danishwar Rasool , Lakshmana G. 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Political violence in Kashmir was a common occurrence. The phenomenon had occurred often and repeatedly in an unmanageable fashion. It had consequential implications for each member of society including children and adolescents.

Aim:
The study aimed to analyze the teachers’ perspective on mental health problems of adolescents in Kashmir. In Kashmir’s precarious circumstances, school-going adolescents were exceptionally vulnerable to mental health issues. Addressing unrecognized mental health issues among school-going adolescents established an important rationale for corresponding further deterioration.

Methods:
The study used the standardized tools of the Rutter’s Children Behavior Questionnaire (RCBQ-B) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Cluster sampling was employed in the study. About 45 schoolteachers rated the behaviors of 160 school-going adolescents of Kashmir from numerous schools. The data were statistically analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics such as t-test and one-way analysis of variance and correlation.

Results:
We found that behavioral and emotional problems (BEPs) rose significantly, most notably indications of BEPs with risk factors. Across the socioeconomic status, age, adolescence type, and education, the results found an upward trend of 47% prevalence rate of mental health problems among adolescents with 45% as peer problems, 39% hyperactivity, 34% conduct, and 9% emotional problems.

Conclusion:
An increasing number of adolescents in prevailing situations in Kashmir suffered from mental health problems. The study findings reveal that there is a need to create effective mental health services and interventions for school-going adolescents in Kashmir.

Authors: Yunusa Mohammed Dahiru , Umar Umar Hassan , Aishatu Ibrahim Mohammed , Aminu Usman Umar , Sa’ad Suleiman T. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background:
Chronic liver disease (CLD) such as cirrhosis is a risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma and as such requires a reliable diagnostic surveillance. Hemodynamic changes are detected early using ultrasound scan. Ultrasound has been found to be an accurate and noninvasive method of assessing the portal vein hemodynamic changes in patients with CLD.

Materials and Methods:
This was a prospective case–control study conducted over a period of 6 months at the Federal Teaching Hospital, Gombe between September 2015 and February 2016. Portal vein diameter (PVD) of 100 adult male and female CLD patients were compared with 100 age- and sex-matched controls. Ultrasonography of the portal vein was used using HD-9 Phillips (2010) ultrasound machine. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Windows version 20.0 package was used for data analysis, with P ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant with a confidence interval of 95%. The variables were expressed as range and mean ± standard deviation. All comparison of variables was done using the Student’s t-test for CLD and control. Pearson’s correlation coefficients and point-biserial correlation coefficient were used for the correlation analysis.

Results:
The mean PVD in normal subjects was 1.07 ± 0.60 cm and the respective value for CLD subjects was 1.50 ± 0.21 cm. There was a statistically significant difference in PVD between normal and CLD subjects (P = 0.001). The PVD correlated positively with age and sex in both CLD and controls.

Conclusion:
The PVD was significantly higher in CLD subjects than controls. PVD correlated significantly with age and sex in both CLD subjects and controls.
