Passeur d’images : regards d’un photographe amateur sur la société marocaine, la collection de Désiré Sic, 1912-1934
Authors: Américi Laurence , Dusserre Aurélia 
Published: June 2024

Cet article présente un fonds photographique amateur, dont une grande partie porte sur le Maroc colonial, de 1912 aux années 1930. Pour constituer ces photographies en sources, la démarche consiste tout d’abord à chercher à faire l’histoire de la collection de ces quatre mille photographies : comment un tel ensemble de plaques de verre parvient-il jusqu’aux historiens ? Quelles sont la part et l’intention de l’auteur des images ? Quel statut celles-ci reçoivent-elles au fil des décennies ? Nous tentons de restituer la démarche de ce sous-officier de l’armée française qui photographie le Maroc pendant deux décennies et s’emploie ensuite à conserver ces images pendant tout le reste de son existence, au sein de l’intimité familiale. Il s’agit dès lors d’étudier la production, la circulation et la conservation de ces photographies produites par un acteur modeste, en dehors de toute célébrité, de toute reconnaissance culturelle, politique ou sociale. Source discrète, longtemps ignorée, oubliée, ces images ont fait l’objet d’une archéologie familiale, qui détermine l’accès des chercheurs.Que voyons-nous par ces photographies réalisées sans objectif affiché de documentation ? Comment peut-on inscrire un tel fonds dans l’imagerie coloniale ? Le parcours du photographe amateur se construit au long sa carrière de sous-officier puis d’officier du génie dans l’armée française, pendant ses séjours au Maroc, de part et d’autre de la Grande Guerre. La temporalité des prises de vues et celle de la constitution de la collection sont à interroger, afin de cerner le contexte des photographies parvenues jusqu’à nous. La démarche de recherche tente alors de s’attacher aux indices qui témoignent de l’intentionnalité dans la constitution de ce fonds, postulant que, même si elle relève de l’intime et n’est jamais formulée, la démarche de conservation n’est en rien laissée au hasard.Aussi, le fonds des photographies de Désiré Sic, qu’elles soient prises au Maroc ou en France, peut-il s’inscrire dans l’histoire de la pratique amateur des débuts du xxe siècle et permet d’interroger la nature de cette pratique : simple usage d’un outil technique banalisé ou production culturelle à valeur originale, de la part d’un autodidacte ?Ce sont alors les indices de la culture visuelle de cet acteur modeste qu’il convient de rassembler. Comment s’approprie-t-il le répertoire orientaliste ? Comment use-t-il des règles communes aux photographes excursionnistes ? Cette approche conduit à interroger les spécificités du regard orientaliste et colonial, en les confrontant aux autres motifs récurrents qui imprègnent ces photographies d’amateur.Ainsi, est-il possible d’approcher la dimension documentaire de ces fonds quant aux instantanés de la colonisation, la question du pouvoir étant récurrente malgré la position modeste de l’auteur dans la hiérarchie militaire et dans la société. C’est au croisement des regards, que ce fonds invite, sans isoler l’expérience coloniale d’une culture transnationale.
Zosteriform cutaneous metastases: A rare occurrence in ductal carcinoma breast after mastectomy
Authors: Sakthibalan Roshany , Muthurathinam Trishna Vaishali , Menon Roshni 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Zosteriform cutaneous metastasis (CM) is an infrequent form of skin metastasis and has a high chance of being misdiagnosed as herpes zoster. Here, we report a 55-year-old woman who had undergone modified radical mastectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy for carcinoma left breast with painful lesions over the left side of her chest and upper back in a zosteriform distribution. She was misdiagnosed and treated for herpes zoster elsewhere. On grounds of clinical suspicion, we did a skin biopsy and confirmed the diagnosis of zosteriform CM from invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast. This case highlights the importance of considering CM in a patient with lesions of zosteriform distribution, as early diagnosis aids in preventing the delay in treatment of underlying malignancies.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
A trichobezoar is a collection or accumulation of hair (tricho) in the cavity of the stomach. It is mostly seen in young females who have underlying psychological illnesses leading to hair-eating habits (trichophagia). It is non-digestible to the gastric juices and enzymes and poses a threat to the individual if persists for a long time. We report a case of a 13-year-old girl who presented with gastric trichobezoar with Rapunzel syndrome successfully managed with open surgery and psychiatric follow-up.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
“Root canal treatment (RCT)” is essential in preserving natural dentition by eliminating infection within the root canal system. Irrigation solutions play a crucial role in achieving successful RCT outcomes by facilitating disinfection and debris removal.

Methods:
An in vitro experimental design was employed to evaluate the irrigation solutions. Antimicrobial efficacy was assessed using agar diffusion assays against Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans. Tissue dissolution ability was evaluated by measuring the weight loss of dentin specimens. Cytotoxicity was assessed using cell viability assays with human periodontal ligament fibroblasts.

Results:
NaOCl demonstrated the highest antimicrobial efficacy, while EDTA exhibited superior tissue dissolution ability. CHX and QMix displayed lower cytotoxicity compared to NaOCl and EDTA.

Conclusion:
The choice of irrigation solution in RCT should consider factors such as antimicrobial efficacy, tissue dissolution ability, and cytotoxicity. NaOCl remains effective but has high cytotoxicity, whereas CHX and QMix offer alternatives with lower cytotoxicity. EDTA is effective in tissue dissolution but should be used cautiously due to cytotoxic potential. Clinicians should weigh the benefits and limitations of each solution for optimal treatment outcomes.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Objectives:
The purpose of this study is to look at how often premalignant oral diseases are among patients who visit a tertiary care center, as well as how often these problems progress to become mouth malignancies.

Methods:
Between 2017 and 2022, 200 patients at a tertiary care facility who were identified with premalignant oral lesions had their medical records retrospectively examined. Information on lesion features, histological results, and demographics was gathered. Statistical analysis was used to determine the prevalence of premalignant oral lesions and the rate at which these lesions turned into oral malignancies, with a significance threshold of P < 0.05.

Findings:
The research population’s mean age was 55 years (SD ± 10), with a 65% male preponderance. The most prevalent premalignant lesions were leukoplakia (45%), erythroplakia (30%), and oral submucous fibrosis (25%). Remarkably, during follow-up, 40% of patients showed development of premalignant lesions into mouth malignancies. Based on statistical analysis, there were significant correlations (P < 0.05) between dysplastic alterations, age, tobacco use, and the development of oral malignancies from premalignant lesions.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, this study highlights the need of early diagnosis and focused therapies in tertiary care settings by offering important insights into the occurrence and evolution of premalignant oral lesions. The results provide important information that may be used to create screening programs and preventive measures that will lessen the incidence of oral cancer.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACTBackground:One potential long-term side effect of surgery in the oral and maxillofacial region is neurosensory impairment. Due to their physical proximity to the surgical location, the lingual nerve (LN) and inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), two sensory segments of the trigeminal nerve, are always susceptible to damage during third molar extraction.Aim:Assessment of the impact of different surgical techniques on nerve function and sensation after maxillofacial surgery.Methods and Materials:There was retrieval of information from medical records of study participants regarding the presence of symptoms like paresthesia, numbness, loss of sensation in lower lip, difficulty in movement of tongue, and all other findings observed after 7 days of surgical procedures. Clinically neurosensory examinations were utilized to assess nerve damage. Pinprick testing and the two-point discrimination test were used.Results:Seven male patients were found to have damage to LN while nine males suffered damage to trigeminal nerve. 12 female patients were found to have damage to LN while 16 females suffered damage to trigeminal nerve. In total 19 patients suffered damage to LN while 25 patients suffered damage to trigeminal nerve.Conclusion:The incidence of LN damage was 9.5%, and the incidence of trigeminal nerve damage was 12.5%.

Ovaj rad se bavi analizom mesta i uloge domaćeg sektora poljoprivrede u privrednom razvoju Srbije. Uloga poljoprivrede u privrednom razvoju neke zemlje varira u zavisnosti od samog nivoa razvoja njene privrede, dok sa privrednim rastom obično dolazi do pada učešća i značaja poljoprivrede za privredni razvoj zemlje. Uprkos tome, u Srbiji se i dalje uočava visoka uloga poljoprivrede u privrednom razvoju zemlje, posmatrano i sa aspekta stvaranja dohotka i učešća poljoprivredne u ukupnoj radnoj snazi. Članak najpre detaljno opisuje opšte karakteristike poljoprivrednog sektora Republike Srbije, osvrćući se posebno na položaj poljoprivrednih gazdinstava, kao i strukturu poljoprivrede, ratarske i stočne proizvodnje. Pored problema i izazova sa kojima se suočava domaća poljoprivreda, članak opisuje i mesto i ulogu domaće poljoprivrede u zaposlenosti i privrednom razvoju. Na kraju se zaključuje da bi integracija Srbije u Evropsku uniju značajno doprinela rešavanju nagomilanih poljoprivrednih problema, sa posebnim naglaskom na poboljšanje nivoa zaštite i subvencionisanja domaćih poljoprivrednika.

Breves observações sobre o empirismo construtivo de Van Fraassen
Authors: Viero Cristóvão Atilio 
Published: June 2024

Na concepção do empirismo construtivo perpassam temas característicos da tradição empirista tais como a proposta de uma fuga da metafísica, a determinação do objetivo da ciência e das teorias científicas, bem como a fundamentação de critérios válidos para a distinção entre ciência e metafísica. A tradição empirista é revisada na visão de van Fraassen numa retomada das questões a partir de uma visão crítica que vise a reabilitar a visão antirrealista. Traremos aqui uma descrição dos pontos fundamentais da filosofia de van Fraassen, fazendo, ao final, um questionamento sobre os seguintes pontos: a posição voluntarista de van Fraassen, a distinção observável/inobservável, a coerência do conceito de adequação empírica e sobre compromissos metafísicos do empirismo construtivo.

Compound droughts under climate change in Switzerland
Authors: von Matt Christoph Nathanael , Muelchi Regula , Gudmundsson Lukas , Martius Olivia 
Published: June 2024

Abstract. The co-occurrence of meteorological, agricultural, and hydrological droughts (multivariate compound droughts) in Switzerland during growing season is problematic due to limitations in water abstractions from rivers during low-flow periods, while at the same time the need for irrigation is high. We analyse compound droughts for 52 catchments in Switzerland during the extended summer season (May–October) using the transient climate and hydrological scenarios for Switzerland (CH2018 and Hydro-CH2018) for both a scenario with mitigation (representative concentration pathway 2.6 (RCP2.6), 8 model chains) and a scenario without mitigation (RCP8.5, 20 model chains). In the RCP8.5 scenario the number of compound drought days is projected to significantly increase by mid-century across all greater regions of Switzerland. The increased frequency is mainly a result of more frequent events (significant) rather than longer event durations (non-significant). Models generally agree on the sign of change. By 2085, compound drought events are projected to occur in median once per catchment per extended summer season north of the Alps and every 1–2 years south of the Alps. Further, the increases in compound drought days mainly occur between May–October, leading to a shift in the main agricultural production season and a more pronounced seasonality with the highest occurrence probabilities between mid-July and the beginning of October. Coupled to the increase in days and events, significantly more catchments are projected to be affected by compound droughts at the same time. In the RCP2.6 (mitigation) scenario, the increase in the number of compound drought days and events is not significant by the end of the 21st century. In comparison with RCP8.5, the number of compound drought days is reduced by 50 %–55 % north of the Alps and by up to 75 % south of the Alps by the end of the century. This emphasizes the need for coordinated adaptation in combination with mitigation measures taken at an early stage.
Computational Analysis for Enhanced Forecasting of India’s GDP Growth using a Modified LSTM Approach
Authors: Bhavika Nemade  
Published: June 2024

Forecasting GDP growth accurately is critical for effective legislation, investment strategies, and corporate planning decision-making. This study focuses on the creation of a novel modified Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model for forecasting India's GDP growth. Outlier identification employs strong statistical techniques, such as the modified Z-score method, to identify and deal with extreme observations that may significantly impact the forecasting model's performance. Missing data is a typical issue in economic datasets. Imputation approaches, such as the Expectation-Maximization (EM) or MissForest algorithms are used to impute missing values by leveraging the correlations between variables and observed data. These advanced imputation techniques consider the data's complexity and produce more reliable and accurate imputed values, reducing biases in the subsequent forecasting process. Lasso regression with lagged variables is applied to select relevant features for forecasting GDP growth. Furthermore, Time Series SMOTE is used to address the class imbalance challenge in GDP growth datasets. Then, the improved LSTM model is then trained on the pre-processed data using robust optimization methods. Cross-validation procedures are used to validate the model's capacity to generalize and minimize overfitting. Performance metrics such as MAE, RMSE, MPE and forecast bias are used to assess the accuracy and precision of GDP growth forecasts. The proposed system has achieved better performance compared to existing methods.

В статье представлены результаты эпидемиологического анализа заболеваемости эхинококкозом населения города Бишкек за 2012-2022 гг. Многолетняя динамика заболеваемости эхинококкозом имеет тенденцию к снижению. Особую тревогу вызывает заболеваемость эхинококкозом детей до 14-летнего возраста, доля которых составила 23% в 2021 году и 21,6% в 2022 году. Высокий удельный вес заболеваемости детей свидетельствует об эпизоотологическом неблагополучии данной инвазии. Случаи эхинококкоза зарегистрированы среди взрослых всех профессий, однако несколько чаще выявляли среди неработающих лиц, удельный вес составляет 52,5% от общей заболеваемости, также достаточно высок удельный вес школьников – 22,2%. Эхинококкозами заражаются люди активного трудоспособного возраста - от 20 до 50 лет. Распределение эхинококкоза по районам города Бишкек свидетельствует о большей регистрации ее в Ленинском районе, локализация эхинококкозной кисты у больных преимущественно в печени.

The article presents the results of an epidemiological analysis of the incidence of echinococcosis in the population of the city of Bishkek for 2012-2022. The long-term dynamics of the incidence of echinococcosis tends to decrease. Of particular concern is the incidence of echinococcosis in children under 14 years of age, the share of which was 23% in 2021 and 21.6% in 2022. The high proportion of morbidity in children indicates the epizootological disadvantage of this invasion. Cases of echinococcosis have been registered among adults of all professions, however, they were detected somewhat more often among non-working people, the proportion is 52.5% of the total incidence, and the proportion of schoolchildren is also quite high - 22.2%. Echinococcosis affects people of active working age - from 20 to 50 years. The distribution of echinococcosis among the districts of the city of Bishkek indicates a greater registration of it in the Leninsky district; the localization of echinococcosis cysts in patients is mainly in the liver.
