Repenser le politique en Gréce ancienne
Authors: Azoulay Vincent 
Published: January 2015

RésuméTrente ans après l’article de Nicole Loraux paru dansL’Hommeen 1986, cette étude entend revenir sur l’expérience politique dans le monde grec ancien. L’objectif est de montrer qu’il est nécessaire d’articuler les deux définitions du terme politique inventé par les Grecs : d’une part,lepolitique compris comme un ensemble d’activités sans substance ni incarnation institutionnelle spécifique, un champ d’actions qui ne s’identifie pas dans les formes de l’État moderne, mais dans des expériences et des pratiques très variées, en contexte conflictuel, et, d’autre part,lapolitique, entendue non pas seulement comme l’accès réglé à différentes institutions, mais aussi comme auto-institution de la communauté par ellemême. À travers l’étude d’un cas précis, la crise de 404 à Athènes et, en particulier, le discours de Cléocritos transmis par lesHelléniquesde Xénophon, l’article propose une nouvelle manière de penser ces deux niveaux d’expression de la vie collective. Loin de la lecture réconciliatrice qu’en avait proposée N. Loraux, l’appel à la concorde de Cléocritos témoigne, dans l’effervescence et la tension des événements, de l’oubli delapolitique, au sens institutionnel du terme, au profit exclusifdupolitique et des pratiques collectives qui y sont associées. Pour finir, cette étude de cas débouche sur une interrogation plus générale sur le sens de l’événement et sa portée épistémologique. En proposant de penser la crise de 404 au sein des différents régimes d’historicité qui ont caractérisé l’histoire d’Athènes entre le Veet le IVesiècle, l’article vise à mieux réarticuler les moments instituants et le fonctionnement institué de la démocratie grecque.
Les prétendues classes censitaires soloniennes
Authors: Duplouy Alain 
Published: January 2015

RésuméLa mise en place par Solon de quatre classes censitaires dans l’Athènes du début du VIe siècle av. J.-C. est d’ordinaire perçue comme une étape majeure dans la structuration politique de l’État athénien. S’intéressant à la manière dont s’était élaborée l’image d’un Solon « père fondateur de la démocratie athénienne », Claude Mossé montrait, il y a près de trente-cinq ans, combien cette présentation devait en fait à l’historiographie du IVe siècle, mettant dès lors en doute l’existence d’un système censitaire solonien. Poursuivant cette démarche, bien que souvent tenue pour « post-moderne » et aux résultats qualifiés de « pessimistes », cet article envisage lestelèsoloniens comme des groupes fonctionnels parmi bien d’autres, insistant sur leur rôle dans la structuration de la cité athénienne et dans la définition d’une citoyenneté proprement archaïque fondée sur les comportements et les modes de vie.
Deux formes du communen Gréce ancienne
Authors: Macé Arnaud 
Published: January 2015

Résumé
Le présent article avance l’idée qu’il existait en Grèce archaïque deux conceptions fondamentales du commun et que celles-ci gagnent à être explicitées à partir du contexte des pratiques distributives qui y avaient cours, comme celles qui président à la répartition des parts de butin après une expédition guerrière. C’est dans ce contexte qu’une distinction peut être faite entre le commun qui ne se distribue pas – la part qu’une communauté met à part avant de diviser les parts individuelles – et celui qui résulte au contraire de la façon dont on répartit les parts individuelles, par exemple en vertu d’une égalité qui devient, pour tous, synonyme de communauté du partage. On propose d’appeler ces deux formes « commun exclusif » et « commun inclusif », et d’en explorer les propriétés. On suit aussi les conséquences du fait que les anciens Grecs en soient venus à appliquer à la cité ellemême ce schéma distributif, en se représentant l’ordre politique comme le résultat d’une procédure de distribution des biens et des prérogatives : la dualité du commun exclusif et du commun inclusif devrait aussi se retrouver au sein de l’expérience et de la pensée politique des anciens Grecs, comme l’un de ses principes structurants.
OBLIQUE MAGNETIC FIELDS AND THE ROLE OF FRAME DRAGGING NEAR ROTATING BLACK HOLE
Authors: Karas Vladimír , Kopáček Ondřej , Kunneriath Devaky 
Published: January 2015

<p>Magnetic null points can <span style="font-size: 10px;">develop near the ergosphere boundary of a rotating black hole by the combined effects of strong gravitational field and the frame-dragging mechanism. The induced electric component does not vanish in the magnetic null and an efficient process of particle acceleration can occur in its immediate vicinity. Furthermore, the effect of imposed (weak) magnetic field can trigger an onset of chaos in the motion of electrically charged particles. The model set-up appears to be relevant for low-accretion-rate nuclei of some galaxies which exhibit episodic accretion events (such as the Milky Way's supermassive black hole) embedded in a large-scale magnetic field of external origin with respect to the central black hole. In this contribution we summarise recent results and we give an outlook for future work with the focus on the role of gravito-magnetic effects caused by rotation of the black hole.</span></p>

Published: January 2015

AbstractAntiphosphatidylserine/prothrombin complex (aPS/PT) antibodies are emerging as an important marker for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). We aimed to compare their performance with that of conventional antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) such as lupus anticoagulant (LA), anticardiolipin (aCL), and anti-β2-glycoprotein I (anti-β2GPI) in APS and to assess their frequency in APS-negative (APS-ne) patients.We considered 160 APS patients and 128 APS-ne patients with clinical criteria for APS but tested negative for conventional aPL. Immunoglobulin (Ig)G/IgM aPS/PT, IgG/IgM aCL, and IgG/IgM anti-β2GPI were detected using ELISA assay and LA with a series of coagulation tests.IgG aPS/PT were significantly associated with IgG aCL, IgG anti-β2GPI, and LA (p<0.0001 for all). IgM aPS/PT were significantly associated only with LA (p<0.0001) instead. There was a significant correlation between IgG aPS/PT and both IgG aCL and IgG anti-β2GPI levels (ρ=0.42 and ρ=0.40, respectively). Both IgG aPS/PT and IgM aPS/PT positivity significantly correlated with LA (ρ=0.44 and ρ=0.5, respectively). IgG and IgM aPS/PT were significantly more frequent in triple than in double and in single positivity (p<0.0001). According to multivariate analysis, IgG and/or IgM aPS/PT were independent risk factors for LA. APS/PT antibodies were found in 9.4% of the APS-ne patients vs. 2% of healthy control (p=0.043); those antibodies were significantly more frequent in the thrombosis with respect to the pregnancy morbidity subset (p=0.01).Our data attribute a clinical relevance to both IgG and IgM aPS/PT antibodies. In particular, the significant prevalence of aPS/PT in APS-ne patients suggests including them as additional laboratory criterion for APS.
Heat and Mass Transfer of Thermophoretic MHD Flow of Powell–Eyring Fluid over a Vertical Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Chemical Reaction and Joule Heating
Authors: Khan Najeeb Alam , Sultan Faqiha , Khan Nadeem Alam 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
The present paper deals with the effect of surface heat and mass transfer on magnetohydrodynamic flow of Powell–Eyring fluid over a vertical stretching sheet. The effects of thermophoresis, Joule heating and chemical reaction are also considered. The governing non-linear partial differential equations of the model are transformed into coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation and solved numerically by Runge–Kutta method and analytically by homotopy analysis method (HAM). The convergence is carefully checked by plotting $$\hbar $$-curves. For different dimensionless parameters, numerical and analytical calculations are carried out and an investigation of the obtained results shows that the flow field is influenced considerably by the buoyancy ratio and thermal radiation, chemical reaction and magnetic field parameters. A totally analytical and consistently applicable solution is derived which agrees with numerical results.
Sulfation and Carbonation Competition in the Treatment of Flue Gas from a Coal-Based Power Plant by Calcium Hydroxide
Authors: Fernández Josefa , J. Renedo M. 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
In this work, a gas containing CO2 and SO2 at the usual concentrations on the coal combustion flue gas reacted with calcium hydroxide to evaluate and quantify the influence of SO2 on the CO2 capture and vice versa. This influence was quantified with a continuous gas analyzer and by thermogravimetry (TG). Results show that the CO2 retained increases in general as its concentration does and decreases as the SO2 concentration increases. A similar behavior was found for the SO2 retention at different CO2 concentrations being more relevant the influence of the presence of SO2 on the CO2 capture than the opposite one. Results suggest that for a high CO2 capture, SO2 should be eliminated previously. With respect to the reaction process it was found that the desulfurization product clearly identified was CaSO3·½H2O; in the reaction between Ca(OH)2 and CO2, CaCO3 is mainly obtained, the complex CaO·CO2 being another possible product synthesized in low amount. Gas analyzer shows that SO2 and CO2 react simultaneously and that a part of the CaCO3 reacts with the SO2 and releases CO2. Sulfation values calculated by TG and from the gas analyzer are very similar but the amount of CO2 captured is not possible to know clearly by TG due to the synthesis and decomposition of CaCO3 during the process. The study of the evolution of the sorbent porosity in the process reveals that the presence of both acid gases produces a lower blockage of the pores than when only one gas is present probably due to the generation of new pores in the reaction of CaCO3 and SO2.
Spatial Errors in Count Data Regressions
Authors: Bertanha Marinho , Moser Petra 
Published: January 2015

AbstractCount data regressions are an important tool for empirical analyses ranging from analyses of patent counts to measures of health and unemployment. Along with negative binomial, Poisson panel regressions are a preferred method of analysis because the Poisson conditional fixed effects maximum likelihood estimator (PCFE) and its sandwich variance estimator are consistent even if the data are not Poisson-distributed, or if the data are correlated over time. Analyses of counts may however also be affected by correlation in the cross-section. For example, patent counts or publications may increase across related research fields in response to common shocks. This paper shows that the PCFE and its sandwich variance estimator are consistent in the presence of such dependence in the cross-section – as long as spatial dependence is time-invariant. We develop a test for time-invariant spatial dependence and provide code in STATA and MATLAB to implement the test.
Comparison of a novel test for placental alpha microglobulin-1 with fetal fibronectin and cervical length measurement for the prediction of imminent spontaneous preterm delivery in patients with threatened preterm labor
Authors: Nikolova Tanja , Bayev Oleg , Nikolova Natasha , Di Renzo Gian Carlo 
Published: January 2015

Abstract

Objective: PartoSure is a bedside test for the prediction of time-to-spontaneous preterm delivery by the detection of placental alpha microglobulin-1 (PAMG-1). The objectives of this study were to further determine the test’s efficacy in predicting delivery within 7 or 14 days from testing, and to compare it with fetal fibronectin (fFN) and cervical length (CL) measurement by transvaginal ultrasound.

Study design: The study population consisted of 203 consecutively recruited women with singleton pregnancies between 200/7 and 366/7 weeks of gestation with symptoms of preterm labor, clinically intact membranes, and cervical dilatation of ≤3 cm. PartoSure and CL were performed on all patients and the test-to-spontaneous-delivery interval was calculated. In a sub-segment of patients, the QuikCheck fFN test was used.

Results: The sensitivities for PartoSure (n=203), fFN (n=66), and CL (n=203) for predicting imminent spontaneous preterm delivery within 7 days were 80%, 50%, and 57%, respectively. The specificities were 95%, 72%, and 73% for PartoSure, fFN and CL, respectively. The NPVs were 96%, 87%, and 89% for PartoSure, fFN and CL, respectively. The PPVs were 76%, 29%, and 30% for PartoSure, fFN and CL, respectively.

Conclusion: PAMG-1 detection by PartoSure is the single best predictor of imminent spontaneous delivery within 7 days compared to fFN and CL. In settings where CL is used as an initial screen, PartoSure has the greatest clinical utility in patients with CL between 15 and 35 mm. In situations where CL is not an initial screen, PartoSure is the most accurate test compared to fFN and CL.
Surgical tracheotomy performed with and without dual antiplatelet therapy

Published: January 2015

Abstract
Some patients who need dual antiplatelet
therapy sometimes require tracheotomy. Aim of this study
was to compare the rate of complications during and
after surgical tracheotomy between patients requiring
dual antiplatelet therapy and those without dual antiplatelet
therapy. We retrospectively included 79 patients
(62% men, mean age 64 ± 14 years) in the period 2007-
2011. The following complications were analyzed: need
for surgical revision within 24 hours after tracheotomy,
need for bronchoscopy within 24 hour after tracheotomy,
need for blood transfusion within 24 hours after tracheotomy,
death attributed to tracheotomy and any complication
attributed to tracheotomy. We compared patients
where tracheotomy was performed while receiving dual
antiplatelet therapy (n=27, 34%) to patients where tracheotomy
was performed without dual antiplatelet therapy
(n=52, 66%). Nonsignificant differences between the two
groups were observed general characteristics. There were
no statistically significant differences in complications
after tracheotomy (surgical revision after tracheotomy
p=0.63, bronchoscopy after tracheotomy p=0.74, blood
transfusion after tracheotomy p=0.59, death attributed to
tracheotomy p=1.00 and any complication attributed to
tracheotomy p=1.00). The study shows that tracheotomy
is safe in cardiac patients on dual antiplatelet therapy.
Relation between bone mineral density
and IL-17 serum levels in Serbian patients with
early Rheumatoid arthritis
Authors: Pavlovic Voja , Dimic Aleksandar , Milenkovic Sasa , Krtinic Dane , Aleksic Ivana 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory
disease characterized by synovial inflammation
and destruction of joint cartilage and bone. Different
cytokines play important role in the processes that cause
articular destruction and extra-articular manifestations
in RA. The contribution of cytokines representing the Th1
(INF-γ), Th2 (IL-4) and IL-17A to the pathogenesis of early
RA and bone mineral density (BMD) loss in still poorly
understood. Serum samples of 38 early RA patients were
evaluated for erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), rheumatoid
factor (RF), C-reactive protein (CRP), anti-cyclic
citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) and for the
tested cytokines (IL-17A, IL-4 and INF-γ). BMD was evaluated
by dualenergyX-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Disease
activity score (DAS28) calculation was assessed for all
patients. Control serum samples were obtained from 34
healthy volunteers. The levels of tested cytokines were
significantly higher (IL-17A, p<0.001; INF-γ, P<0.001; IL-4,
P<0.01) in patients with early RA, compared to the healthy
controls. In early RA patients, strong correlation of serum
IL-17A was found with DAS28, ESR and CRP. Also, a significant
negative correlation was found between serum
INF-γ levels and the DAS28 score. Significantly positive
correlation of BMD values and CRP, DAS28 IL-17A were also demonstrated. DXA analysis revealed that the most
common site for osteoporosis was the lumbar spine followed
by the femoral neck. BMD values significantly correlated
with CRP, DAS28 score and IL-17A serum levels.
The mean serum IL-17A levels, in patients with early RA,
corresponded with disease activity, severity and BMD
loss, indicating the potential usefulness of serum IL-17A
in defining the disease activity and bone remodeling.
Duration of Pertussis Immunity After DTaP Immunization: A Meta-analysis
Authors: McGirr Ashleigh , Fisman David N. 
Published: January 2015

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Pertussis incidence is increasing, possibly due to the introduction of acellular vaccines, which may have decreased the durability of immune response. We sought to evaluate and compare the duration of protective immunity conferred by a childhood immunization series with 3 or 5 doses of diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP).

METHODS:
We searched Medline and Embase for articles published before October 10, 2013. Included studies contained a measure of long-term immunity to pertussis after 3 or 5 doses of DTaP. Twelve articles were eligible for inclusion; 11 of these were included in the meta-analysis. We assessed study quality and used meta-regression models to evaluate the relationship between the odds of pertussis and time since last dose of DTaP and to estimate the probability of vaccine failure through time.

RESULTS:
We found no significant difference between the annual odds of pertussis for the 3- versus 5-dose DTaP regimens. For every additional year after the last dose of DTaP, the odds of pertussis increased by 1.33 times (95% confidence interval: 1.23–1.43). Assuming 85% vaccine efficacy, we estimated that 10% of children vaccinated with DTaP would be immune to pertussis 8.5 years after the last dose. Limitations included the statistical model extrapolated from data and the different study designs included, most of which were observational study designs.

CONCLUSIONS:
Although acellular pertussis vaccines are considered safer, the adoption of these vaccines may necessitate earlier booster vaccination and repeated boosting strategies to achieve necessary “herd effects” to control the spread of pertussis.
Socio-cultural and Language Changes in a „Cultural Island”: Vershina – A Polish Village in Siberia
Authors: Głuszkowski Michał 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
The present article attempts to describe the social evolution of the community of Vershina, a village founded in the beginning of the 20th century by voluntary settlers from Little Poland, from a cultural island to the stage of assimilation. The social, economic, cultural, political and language situation of the community changed several times. The most significant historical moments of Russia and the Soviet Union set the borders of three main periods in Vershina’s history. During its first two-three decades Vershina consisted a homogenous Polish cultural and language island. The migrants preserved the Roman Catholic religion, Polish language and traditions as well as farming methods and machines. Collectivization and the communist system with its repressions made the Polish village assimilate to its surroundings. With the flow of time, the generation of first settlers died and some of the traditions of Little Poland vanished or got modified by the elements of the Soviet, Russian or Buryat culture. After the Perestroika the minorities gained some rights, which strengthened in the 1990s. Thanks, to the political changes and the collapse of the SU the inhabitants of Vershina can found cultural organisations, cultivate their religion, and learn Polish in local schools. However, in spite of the regained rights, over the decades of mass sovietization and ateization, the culture and customs of the Polish community became similar to other Siberian villages. Young people from the group of our interest abandon their mother language and are not eager to leave Russia and move to Poland. The process of assimilation is intensifying while there are practically no factors protecting the local culture and language.
La laitue aux États-Unis. Complémentarité des espaces productifs et stratégie des firmes de l'agri-business
Authors: Dorel Gérard 
Published: January 2015

La laitue apparaît comme un exemple achevé du processus d'intégration spatiale et capitaliste d'une culture où la maîtrise des espaces productifs ne passe pas forcément par une concentration foncière mais par le contrôle technico-commercial des zones productives à vocation saisonnière complémentaire.
Cette intégration a pour centre géographique la vallée de la Salinas qui non seulement produit une salade sur quatre consommées aux États-Unis mais, en fait, en contrôle près de la moitié de la commercialisation. Les agents de cette domination sont les producteurs-expéditeurs de la vallée qui, depuis 2 ou 3 décennies, ont tissé un réseau agro-commercial sur tout le sud-ouest étatsunien. Leur réussite n'a pu qu'attirer l'intérêt des géants de l'agri-business au premier rang desquels Inter Harvest-United Fruit Company. Cette dernière, implantée brutalement sur le marché en 1968-1969, est devenue la première société expéditrice d'un produit parmi les plus rémunérateurs de l'agriculture américaine.
Hidrogeografske značilnosti in kakovostno stanje vodotokov v povirju Reke // Hydrogeographical characteristics and the quality of watercourses in the Reka River headwaters

Published: January 2015

Članek obravnava hidrogeografske značilnosti povirnega dela Reke. Predstavljene so vodna bilanca in odtočne značilnosti območja. Predstavljeni so rezultati meritev fizikalno-kemijskih parametrov na Reki in izbranih desnih pritokih Reke, opravljenih v štirih različnih vodnih stanjih med avgustom leta 2012 in januarjem leta 2013. Rezultati kažejo, da večina vodotokov nima kraškega zaledja ter, da na kakovost vode v povirju Reke vplivajo neurejene razmere na področju odvajanja odpadnih vod v naseljih. The article deals with hydrogeographical characteristics of the headwaters of the Reka River basin. Its water balance and drainage characteristics are presented. Results of the measurements of physico-chemical parameters in the Reka River and its selected right tributaries, carried out in four different hydrological conditions between August 2012 and January 2013, are presented. The results show, that most of the watercourses don’t appear to have karstic characteristics and that the quality of water in the upper course of the Reka basin is highly influenced by uncontrolled wastewater management in the settlements.
