Published: August 2024

Abstract
The complexity of the energy levels in Fe ii has made it difficult to theoretically interpret its observational emission spectrum. However, addressing this challenge could provide valuable insights into the main sequence of QSOs using “eigenvector 1” and the chemical evolution of the Universe. Although the templates based on I Zw 1 are widely used, their universality remains unexplained. To address this, we utilized the CLOUDY spectral synthesis code to generate theoretical blends of Fe ii optical emission near the Hβ region. Our results indicate that the optimal cloud density and photon flux align with previous studies at gas density 1011 cm−3 and photon flux 1020.5 cm−2 s−1. We discovered a broad parameter region that fits the data well, encompassing a diverse range of densities and photon fluxes. This helps to explain the general applicability of optical templates. Additionally, we investigated the effects of different spectral energy distributions (SEDs), Eddington ratios, turbulence, and cloud column densities and found that they provided a sufficiently broad range for typical emitting clouds. We found different SEDs had a negligible impact on the template shape, further expanding the usability of empirical templates. However, they significantly affected the absolute intensity of Fe ii emission, consistent with previous research. Furthermore, we determined that a turbulence of approximately 100 km s−1 is necessary to produce sufficiently strong optical Fe ii, and either a column density greater than 1024 cm−2, which is typical for Fe ii UV emission, or an abundance higher than solar is preferred.
Household Savings in the Mirror of National and Aggregate Transfer Accounts
Authors: Nazarova Anzhela G. 
Published: August 2024

The article examines the changes in the Russian population’s propensity to save in 2011-2020 in the context of national (SNA) and transfer (NTA) accounts. The calculation of the Households Savings value on a gross and net basis is methodologically consistent with the National Transfer Accounts Manual, the System of National Accounts 2008, and the official Rosstat statistical methodology for constructing non-financial accounts of the Household sector in the System of National Accounts of the Russian Federation.
Structural changes in households’ savings were studied from three perspectives: against the background of the economy’s savings, changes in the volume of public transfers to the private sector, and conclusions from international studies on NTA. The construction of the balance sheet of the Households sector’s savings and accumulation (according to the SNA data) and the system of aggregate transfer accounts yielded the following results.
From 2011 to 2020, the population provided between 1/5 and 1/3 of the total gross saving of the Russian economy. The Households sector acted as a net creditor to other institutional sectors of the SNA (including the Rest of the World sector), providing them with resources saved but not used for accumulation amounting to 1.0-6.0% of GDP. This study confirms that there is a direct correlation between changes in the volume of income saved by the population and changes in life cycle and public reallocation accounts estimates. The analysis of the Russian economy shows that the households’ saving rate was steadily low, comprising about 6.2% of disposable income on average, amidst significant public benefits. These findings match the results of cross-country comparative studies on developed economies made in the context of NTA.
L’insertion par le travail entre reconnaissance et déqualification
Authors: Peltier Axelle 
Published: August 2024

L’orientation des usagerꞏes vers le marché du travail est devenue une finalité de plus en plus centrale des politiques d’insertion. En contribuant à la dégradation de la condition salariale et à la progression d’une forme d’injonction à la « mise au travail », cette tendance à « l’activation » fragiliserait la fonction intégrative de ce secteur d’action publique. L’objet de cet article est d’appréhender ces effets à partir de l’expérience des salariéꞏes du secteur de l’Insertion par l’Activité Économique (IAE). Cette approche centrée sur la réception de l’action publique dans une perspective intersectionnelle permet d’éclairer l’ambivalence qui caractérise le rapport qu’iels entretiennent au dispositif. La tension entre le rôle intégrateur du travail d’insertion et sa dimension déqualifiante se décline ainsi de manière différenciée selon l’inscription de ces usagerꞏes des politiques d’insertion dans les rapports de classe, de genre et de race.
La recherche en pointillé ?

Published: August 2024

Cet article traite des conditions de production de la recherche dans le cadre des thèses en sciences humaines et sociales financées par Cifre (Convention industrielle de formation par la recherche). Il s’appuie sur les résultats d’une enquête par questionnaire menée en 2020 auprès de près de 400 doctorant·es et docteur·es en Cifre. On montre que les trajectoires de ces chercheur·ses, comme les conditions concrètes de réalisation de leur recherche doctorale, sont conditionnées par la disponibilité inégale de ressources matérielles et les formes d’encadrement au sein de la structure d’accueil. Bien plus qu’un « projet » individuel conçu en début de thèse, ce sont ces conditions particulières de réalisation du travail doctoral et une moindre socialisation académique qui destinent plutôt les doctorant·es en Cifre à une intégration professionnelle aux marges de l’enseignement et de la recherche.
Conservative Treatment of Mesenteric and Hepatic Portal Venous Gas Caused by Gut-Derived Infection After Ileostomy: A Case Report
Authors: Jiang Qiuping , Sun Pan , Xie Cuiyun , Hua Hongmei 
Published: August 2024

Introduction
Hepatic portal venous gas is an extremely rare symptom of gas accumulation in the portal venous system. This disease has an acute onset, a rapid progression, and an extremely high mortality rate. This report describes a patient with mesenteric and hepatic portal venous gas caused by intestinal microbiota disturbance–induced gut-derived infection after ileostomy. The patient recovered and was discharged after conservative treatment. Nursing management of patients with mesenteric and hepatic portal venous gas is discussed.

Clinical Findings
A 76-year-old patient developed septic shock, paralytic intestinal obstruction, and mesenteric and hepatic portal venous gas after undergoing ileostomy.

Diagnosis
Mesenteric and hepatic portal venous gas was diagnosed on the basis of abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography findings.

Interventions
The treatment plan included early control of infection, early identification and nursing care of gut-derived infection caused by intestinal microbiota disturbance, early identification of paralytic intestinal obstruction, relief of intestinal obstruction and prevention of intestinal ischemia, and early nutritional support.

Outcomes
On day 18 of hospitalization, the patient was transferred to the general ward and resumed eating, producing gas, and defecating. His abdominal signs and infection indicator levels were normal. On day 27, the patient was discharged home.

Conclusion
This case provides an in-depth understanding of the care of patients with mesenteric and hepatic portal venous gas and emphasizes the important role of bedside nurses in evaluating and treating these patients. This report may help nurses care for similar patients.
Reigniting Intensive Care Unit Liberation
Authors: Guest Margaret , Craven Kevin , Tellson Alaina M. , Porter Marlene , James Nakeitha , Turley Lisa , Smitherman Jeremy 
Published: August 2024

Background
The Society of Critical Care Medicine has established guidelines to manage pain, sedation, delirium, immobility, family participation, and sleep disruption in the intensive care unit, a set of interventions known as the intensive care unit liberation (ABCDEF) bundle. Adherence to these guidelines has shown positive results.

Local Problem
In the intensive care units of a level I trauma academic teaching hospital in central Texas, the rate of bedside nursing staff adherence to the ABCDEF bundle was only 67.1% in January 2022. The aim of this quality improvement project was to improve adherence to the bundle.

Methods
Knowledge gaps were found to be the driver of the low adherence rate. Two primary needs were identified: (1) education on the elements of the ABCDEF bundle and (2) increased awareness and recognition of incomplete and incorrect documentation. Interventions included focused education on intensive care unit liberation.

Results
From February to June 2022, overall adherence to the ABCDEF bundle increased from 67.1% to 95.3%, ventilator use decreased by approximately 10%, and restraint use dropped by about 9%. The incidence of delirium increased, but this increase was due to incorrect patient assessment before the interventions.

Conclusion
The results of this project are consistent with literature demonstrating that a multifaceted approach to improving ABCDEF bundle adherence can produce sustainable improvement in patient outcomes. This report may help other organizations facing similar challenges improve adherence to the bundle in a postpandemic environment.
An unusual cause of osteomalacia in a young lady
Authors: Karmakar Angan , Ghosh Dipendranath , Sit Hiramanik , Ghosh Parasar 
Published: August 2024

Abstract
Oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare entity, caused by excessive secretion of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) from the peripherally located benign tumours of mesenchymal origin. Patients usually present with chronic widespread pain and fatigue. Diagnostic approach involves demonstration of excessive urinary loss of phosphate and the high plasma level of FGF-23. Whole of PET-CT scan or whole body MRI scan are used to detect the tumour. PET/CT Ga-68 dotatate scan is required often when the other imaging modalities fail to detect the neoplasm. Here we present the case of a 32year old lady who presented to us with chronic low back pain and thorough evaluation helped us to diagnose this rare disease.
Abdominal hysterectomy due to uterine rupture causing bilateral ureterovaginal fistula: A rare case report
Authors: Jana Amitayu , Maiti Krishnendu 
Published: August 2024

Abstract
Ureterovaginal fistula (UVF) is defined as abnormal communication between ureter and vagina. Although documented after radical hysterectomy, post radiation and retained pessary incidence of bilateral UVF is still very rare. We have documented a case report of a multipara woman presented with persistent urinary leakage following an emergency hysterectomy for obstructed labor. After evaluation with imaging there was bilateral hydroureterophrosis with dense purulent collection mixed with contrast in the vesicular area with lower end of ureter draining in the vaginal vault with preserved renal function. During exploration both ureters were dilated. Instillation dye in both ureters showed extravasation in vagina. After ligating distal ends modified Lich-Gregoir technique done over double J (DJ) stents. DJ removed after 3 months. Bilateral UVF is only 5%–10% of all ureteric injury. Aggressive blind clamping, excessive hemorrhage, distorted anatomy, malignancy and surgeons experience play a crucial role. Obstetric cause is the prime factor. Preventing measures like proper screening of antenatal patients, early detection of high-risk pregnancy, supervised caesarean section should be taken to avoid ureteric injuries

Authors: Barati Mona , Teimouri Azam , Feizi Awat , Iraj Bijan , Karimifar Mozhgan 
Published: August 2024

Background:
The current study aims to assess cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) among diabetic versus nondiabetic nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. NAFLD is the most common hepatic disorder worldwide which is directly associated with diverse CVRFs such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and metabolic syndrome (MS).

Materials and Methods:
The current cross-sectional population-based study has been conducted on 1031 NAFLD patients. After excluding 340 prediabetes patients, the NAFLD patients were divided into T2DM and normal blood glucose (NBG). Then, CVRFs were compared between the two groups.

Results:
Out of 691 NAFLD cases included in the study, 337 (48.8%) patients had T2DM. In the T2DM and NBG groups, the body mass index (BMI) was 31.2 ± 4.6 and 29.9 ± 4.3 kg/m2, respectively (P = 0.001). The waist circumference was 102.2 ± 10.2 and 97.6 ± 10.6 cm, respectively (P < 0.001). The systolic blood pressure was 123.3 ± 15.6 and 119.6 ± 13.6 mmHg, respectively (P = 0.043). The triglyceride levels were 191.9 ± 104.7 and 176.5 ± 89.6 mg/dL, respectively (P = 0.042). Generally, these factors were significantly higher among the diabetic patients. Besides, cardiovascular disease (CVD), hypertension, and MS were statistically more prevalent in NAFLD patients with T2DM (P < 0.001) than nondiabetic NAFLD patients. In multiple logistic regression models, the odds ratio of CVD, hypertension, and MS was 2.18, 2.12, and 6.63 for patients with T2DM compared with NBG, respectively. Adjustment was made for age, sex, BMI, smoking, and physical activity.

Conclusion:
CVRFs were higher in NAFLD patients with T2DM than NAFLD patients with NBG.
Effectiveness of serological markers of gastric mucosal atrophy in the gastric precancer screening and in cancer prevention
Authors: Kotelevets Sergey M , Chekh Sergey A , Chukov Sergey Z 
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND
New markers are needed to improve the effectiveness of serological screening for atrophic gastritis.
AIM
To develop a cost-effective method for serological screening of atrophic gastritis with a high level of sensitivity.
METHODS
Of the 169 patients with atrophic gastritis, selected by the visual endoscopic Kimura-Takemoto method, 165 showed histological mucosal atrophy using the updated Kimura-Takemoto method. All 169 patients were examined for postprandial levels of gastrin-17 (G17) and pepsinogen-1 (PG1) using GastroPanel® (Biohit Plc, Helsinki, Finland).
RESULTS
We used the histological standard of five biopsies of the gastric mucosa, in accordance with the Kimura-Takemoto classification system to assess the sensitivity of G17 in detecting gastric mucosal atrophy. We also compared the morpho-functional relationships between the detected histological degree of gastric mucosal atrophy and the serological levels of G17 and PG1, as the markers of atrophic gastritis. The sensitivity of postprandial G17 was 62.2% for serological levels of G17 (range: 0-4 pmol/L) and 100% for serological G17 (range: 0-10 pmol/L) for the detection of monofocal severe atrophic gastritis. No strong correlation was found between the levels of PG1 and degree of histological atrophy determined by the Kimura-Takemoto classification system to identify the severity of mucosal atrophy of the gastric corpus. In the presented clinical case of a 63-year-old man with multifocal atrophic gastritis, there is a pronounced positive long-term dynamics of the serological marker of atrophy - postprandial G17, after five months of rennet replacement therapy.
CONCLUSION
Serological screening of multifocal atrophic gastritis by assessment of postprandial G17 is a cost-effective method with high sensitivity. Postprandial G17 is an earlier marker of regression of atrophic gastritis than a morphological examination of a gastric biopsy in accordance with the Sydney system. Therefore, postprandial G17 is recommended for dynamic monitoring of atrophic gastritis after treatment.

Le sel végétal joue un rôle capital pour l’organisme humain. Les techniques empiriques d’obtention de ce sel, posent un problème pour parvenir à un produit fini destiné à être utilisé en cuisine. L’étude visait à formuler en cristaux par la méthode traditionnelle, du sel végétal issu du filtrat de cendres des plantes utilisées au Congo. Les cendres des pelures du plantain, des amandes du palmier raphia, des régimes du palmier à huile, du sésame et de la jacinthe d’eau ont été obtenues après séchage et incinération à l’air libre pendant cinq (5) heures jusqu’à l’obtention de la cendre. Les filtrats ont été extraits après lavage des cendres à l’eau de robinet. Le sel végétal résultait après évaporation d’eau pendant quatre heures. Le taux d’extraction du sel a été déterminé après cristallisation des filtrats. La masse plus élevée (1,72g) du sel végétal a été enregistrée des feuilles de jacinthe d’eau. Il a été noté la plus faible masse (1,48g) avec les amandes du palmier raphia. Le taux d’extraction de 54,69% et 44,93% a été enregistré sur les filtrats de cendres de la hampe du plantain et amandes du palmier raphia. Le taux d’extraction du sel végétal du filtrat de cendres du bananier plantain a été plus important comparé à ceux enregistrés chez les autres végétaux.
English title: Crystal formulation of salt extracted from plant residues of low commercial value in Congo
Vegetable salt play a capital role in the human body. However, their manufacturing methods leading to the final product to be used in cooking is still not well mastered. Thus, this work aimed to formulate vegetable salt crystals using the traditional method, from the ash filtrate of plants used in the Congo. The ashes have been obtained after drying as incineration in the open air for 5 hours until ashes are obtained of plantain’s skeen, stones of palm tree raffia, oil palm regime, sesame leaves and water hyacinth leaves. The ash filtrates were extracted after washing of the ashes with tap water. The salt was obtained after evaporation of water for four (4) hours. The extraction rate of the vegetable salt was determined after crystallisation of the filtrates. The highest salt mass (1.72 g) was obtained with the leaves of water hyacinth and the smallest mass of 1.48g was obtained with stones of the raffia palm. The extraction rates of the vegetable salt of 54.69% and 44.93% were recorded with the ashes filtrate of the plantain Banana’s peduncle and stone of palm tree raffia respectively. The extraction rate of vegetable salt from the plantain banana ashes filtrates has been more important than those recorded in other plants.

La dégradation de la qualité du maïs à certaines périodes de l’année entraine une baisse de celle des aliments fabriqués pour volaille au Burkina Faso. Le principal facteur indexé renvoie aux mauvaises conditions de stockage et de conservation. Cette étude avait pour objet de contribuer à l’amélioration de la préservation de la qualité du maïs post récolte au Burkina Faso. La démarche méthodologique a consisté à la réalisation d’une enquête et d’analyse d’échantillons de maïs. L’enquête a touché 320 producteurs de maïs. Les qualités sanitaires et physiques de 125 échantillons de maïs ont été analysées. Les résultats de l’enquête ont montré que 49% stockent leur maïs dans des magasins, 26% dans des greniers et 25% dans des maisons d’habitation. L’analyse de la qualité des grains a révélé des taux moyens de présence des grains moisis de 0,65 %, d’humidité de 11,81%, d’impuretés de 0,65%, d’hétérogénéité de 4,27% et une contamination à l’aflatoxine de 28,34 µg/kg. Cette étude a donc mis en évidence des nombreuses insuffisances en matière de conservation du maïs. Cependant, le taux d’humidité du maïs en conservation enregistré s’avère conforme aux normes. A contrario, les autres paramètres sont relativement éloignés des normes.
English title: Post-harvest maize storage and preservation practices and their impact on product quality in Burkina Faso
The deterioration in maize quality at certain times of the year has led to a drop in the quality of poultry feed in Burkina Faso. The main factor identified is poor storage and preservation conditions. The aim of this study was to contribute to improving the preservation of post-harvest maize quality in Burkina Faso. The methodological approach involved a survey and analysis of maize samples. The survey involved 320 maize producers. The sanitary and physical qualities of 125 maize samples were analyzed. The results of the survey showed that 49% store their maize in warehouses, 26% in granaries and 25% in dwellings. Analysis of grain quality revealed average levels of moldy kernels of 0.65%, moisture of 11.81%, impurities of 0.65%, heterogeneity of 4.27% and aflatoxin contamination of 28.34 µg/kg. The study therefore revealed numerous shortcomings in corn preservation. However, the recorded moisture content of maize in storage complied with standards. On the other hand, the other parameters are relatively far from standards.

Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.), used for direct consumption and cooking oil in several African countries, suffers tremendous losses during storage due to pests. The main pest of groundnut under prolonged storage in tropical countries is the peanut beetle, Caryedon serratus (Olivier) (Coleoptera; Bruchidae). The present study aimed at (1) assessing the variability of field pods infestation by C. serratus on sites of different pedoclimatic conditions and at (2) evaluating the losses in laboratory storage. Groundnut pod samples were collected in six sites of Senegalese groundnut main farming areas (Bambey, Sandiara, Kaffrine, Coki, Keur Baka and Keur Ayib), and placed in glass jars (5 L) aerate with lid mesh (2 mm) and brought to laboratory. Number of eggs, insect progeny, emerged insects’ weight, survival rate, percentage of attacked kernels and weight loss were assessed and confronted among different sampling sites (field soil pH and moisture content, and photoperiodicity). The results showed a presence of groundnut bruchid in all sites, with significant variations of eggs on pods during the drying period across the sites. These variations in field infestation can be explained by several factors such as cultural practices and field environmental factors which varied greatly between the sites. Considering these factors and our preliminary results, this study suggests to dry the groundnuts furthest possible from the beetle hosts trees (wild hosts Cesalpinaceae) and shorten the pod exposure time in field as much as possible, in order to control this preharvest infestation and reduce groundnut storage losses.
