The main forest species encountered in southern and central Benin, West Africa
Authors: AIKPON Gorgias , Koura Kourouma , Ganglo Jean 
Published: June 2024

The south of Benin, a country in West Africa, is still home to remnants of dense forests that benefit from a particularly rainy sub-equatorial climate, with annual rainfall of up to 1,200 mm. These forest ecosystems are an integral part of the West African forest block, which stretches from Liberia to Togo. However, despite their richness and ecological importance, these forests are unfortunately subject to strong human pressures, particularly from slash-and-burn agriculture, intensive logging and the growing urbanisation of coastal areas. Preserving these forests is crucial, however, as they are home to remarkable plant and animal biodiversity, with many endemic species. What's more, these forests play an essential role in regulating the local climate, protecting soil and water resources, as well as providing local populations with a vital source of energy wood, non-timber forest products and support for their traditional agricultural practices. Faced with these conservation challenges, identifying and characterising the main forest species and their ecology is an essential prerequisite for implementing sustainable management and restoration strategies for these threatened forest ecosystems in southern Benin. This work aims to identify and draw attention to the different forest species present in southern and central Benin.
The dataset provides information on forest species found in southern and central Benin, West Africa. This dataset is extremely useful for forestry research, as it focuses mainly on the various forest species of major importance. It can be used as a basis for characterising individuals or populations of species, based on their abundance in relation to anthropic pressure and changes in environmental conditions.
These species are characteristic of forests and above all are of particular interest both to populations and to managers of protected areas. Field collections were initiated in 2007 as part of natural forest inventory work. The data collected has been completed by various field works that followed this work on forest species in southern Benin. The latest version of the dataset is publicly and freely accessible on the GBIF website at the address https://www.gbif.org/dataset/aff3a10a-a86b-4eff-98e4-d63f92fd6f7e.
It should be noted that the fact that the collection and monitoring were carried out in southern Benin, a region known for its great diversity of species, over a period of 10 years make these data, particularly relevant information to study the effects of climate change and human pressure on ecosystems in this area.
Factors affecting scum formation and the use of electronic nose to identify fundamental odor properties in urban estuaries
Authors: Casila Joan Cecilia , Okuyama Ryohei , Yokoyama Katsuhide 
Published: June 2024

The foul odor of rivers is often linked to poor water quality and unhealthy air. In this study, variations in water quality and hydrodynamics near the confluence of the Shakujii and Sumida Rivers in Tokyo, Japan, were monitored, and their effects on sum generation were analyzed. The Shakujii River, facing scum and odor issues, was monitored hourly for on-site scum coverage. Samples of scum, sediment, and water were collected and subjected to odor analysis. The odor characteristics were assessed using an electronic nose odor machine and then correlated with human olfactory sense. Results indicated that salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), rainfall, sediment, and topography influenced scum formation. Scum coverage was higher when salinity was below 1 psu and DO was below 6 mg/L. Organic acids (14.2%) and hydrogen sulfide (14.4%) were the primary odor components of sediment in the Shakujii River. In the Sumida River sediments, organic acids (4%) and sulfurs (1%) were prominent. The Shakujii River sediment exhibited the highest odor index and showed a 62.43% similarity with scum. These results could support efforts to address scum and odor issues in the area. They could provide new insights into on-site formation based on actual river hydrodynamics and water quality variations.

Traitant de l’interventionnisme militaire américain à la lumière de l’invasion de l’Ukraine par la Russie, l’article défend l’idée que l’aide militaire accordée à Kiev est plus qu’une aide : elle serait en soi une forme d’intervention voilée. Pour ce faire, sont étudiés dans un premier temps l’adoption du programme Lend-Lease , le déclenchement de la première guerre du Golfe et leur inaction au pire du génocide Rwandais ainsi que lors de l’annexion illégale de la Crimée en 2014. Ceci dans l’objectif de constituer une grille de lecture permettant de comprendre les ressorts de l’aide à l’Ukraine et sa caractérisation en tant qu’intervention.
Les dépendances au fil de la vie

Published: June 2024

La dépendance, parfois décrite comme pathologique par essence, est un mécanisme essentiel au sein des relations de couple. Au travers de ce chapitre, nous aborderons le sujet d’une dépendance « suffisamment » saine, son évolution durant la vie du couple ainsi que les influences de l’évolution de la société sur son élaboration.
Les dépendances au fil de la vie
Authors: Menecier Pascal , Bouteloup Margaux 
Published: June 2024

Les personnes en situation de handicap ont vu au xx e siècle leur espérance de vie s’accroître pour rejoindre celle de la population générale, faisant apparaître de nouvelles problématiques dans leurs accompagnements après 60 ans. Les personnes âgées ne sont pas toutes dépendantes, dans une nécessaire distinction entre avancée dans la vieillesse et situation de handicap, même si elles peuvent être liées. Requalifier en gérontologie la dépendance en perte d’autonomie (fonctionnelle) complique l’approche de ces questions. Avant tout multiple dans la vieillesse, la dépendance n’est pas que fonctionnelle au détriment de ses autres formes, dans une relation qui peut se développer ou se renforcer avec l’âge.
Place du psychologue et complexités en soins palliatifs
Authors: Gasnier Stéphanie 
Published: June 2024

Les EMSP sont sollicitées pour des situations palliatives complexes et le psychologue y exerçant participe à la considération de la composante psychique dans ces situations. Son activité auprès des patients est souvent assimilée aux accompagnements psychologiques. Mais cela n’est-il pas réducteur ? Quelles sont les autres modalités d’interventions à destination du patient face aux enjeux psychiques à l’œuvre dans toute situation palliative ?

La valorisation des séjours en unités de soins palliatifs est soumise, entre autres, à la durée moyenne de séjours des patients. Cette réalité comptable entre en conflit avec la temporalité du patient et la construction d’un projet de soin. Qu’est-ce que cette durée de séjour implique, comment est-elle vécue, que révèle-t-elle, faut-il y résister à tout prix ?
Place du psychologue et complexités en soins palliatifs

Published: June 2024

Les Unités de Soins Palliatifs sont très chargées en représentations, et dans la réalité, elles sont avant tout des lieux de vie avec une temporalité singulière. Les patients et leurs proches en parlent comme « une bulle à part », une parenthèse où se vit l’essentiel. Quel est le quotidien d’une USP ? Quelle place peut prendre le psychologue dans l’équipe pluridisciplinaire ?
Les méthodes projectives : de l’indication à la restitution
Authors: Racin Céline , Chantepie Pierre-Justin 
Published: June 2024

La formation des psychologues nécessite un apprentissage rigoureux des repères psychopathologiques et des dynamiques à l’œuvre dans toute rencontre clinique – ces derniers s’appuyant, en ce qui concerne la psychologie clinique référée à la psychanalyse, sur les trois points de vue métapsychologiques. L’enseignement des méthodes projectives dans une perspective clinique s’inscrit pleinement dans cette articulation des enjeux cliniques, psychopathologiques, théoriques et méthodologiques. Il s’agit alors d’interroger les voies de transmissions possibles à partir de ces outils. Cette fiche présentera quelques-uns des principaux aspects.
Quand la question de la pulsion déchaine les passions
Authors: Dispaux-Ducloux Marie-France 
Published: June 2024

Depuis “Vie et mort en psychanalyse”, Jean Laplanche approfondit la question de la pulsion dans l’oeuvre de Freud, chemin faisant, il va aboutir dans les nouveaux fondements pour la psychanalyse à sa théorie de la séduction généralisée, en 1987, suivie de la révolution copernicienne inachevée. Quelques années plus tard, dans son livre Les chaines d’éros, André Green fait une critique sévère de l’abandon de la force pulsionnelle par Laplanche. S’ensuit un échange passionné entre ces deux grandes figures de la psychanalyse française qui aboutit à une rupture entre les deux hommes… qui ne sera que momentanée. Nous tenterons de cerner l’enjeu de cette opposition pour la théorie et la clinique psychanalytique d’aujourd’hui.

Published: June 2024

Le deuxième séminaire « Publier en didactiques » a été organisé selon la déclinaison systématique de l’inscription dans le champ des didactiques des revues et des articles qu’elles publient. Nous abordons ici la question de la publication d’articles non-inscrits dans ce champ dans des revues qui le sont par ailleurs. Joël Lebeaume et Yves Reuter débattent des frontières à ces inscriptions, en questionnant les places que les revues inscrites explicitement dans le champ des didactiques accordent à des articles qui ne le sont pas et les intérêts que revêtent ces publications pour des didacticiens.
La nuit transfigurée
Authors: Baas Bernard 
Published: June 2024

Dans son dialogue avec Blanchot (La Communauté désavouée vs La Communauté inavouable), Jean-Luc Nancy entendait dénoncer, mais sans lui opposer une autre figure, l’idée selon laquelle la communauté des amants, telle que l’avait exemplifiée Marguerite Duras dans La Maladie de la mort, serait l’accomplissement de la communauté comme œuvre de mort. À partir d’une lecture du poème de Richard Dehmel, Verklärte Nacht (La Nuit transfigurée), on voudrait ici esquisser le schème d’un couple où l’inavouable se transfigure en puissance d’avènement d’une communauté partagée.
La séparation
Authors: Hirt André 
Published: June 2024

Il existerait, au-delà du travail entrepris avec Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe portant sur le premier romantisme d’Iéna dans L’Absolu littéraire (1978), un « romantisme » persistant mais problématisé de Jean-Luc Nancy. Exposé dans un texte méconnu sur Flaubert, il se révèle non pas d’école ou de fantasme, mais de forme en ce qu’il se traduit par un régime très nouveau de pensée. En outre, il doit lui-même être surmonté, en accompagnant l’infini du sens que la fragmentation de totalités comme le monde impose.

Le Paradoxe de la comédienne : Peg Woffington selon Charles Reade
Authors: Bury Laurent 
Published: June 2024

In 1852, in his play Masks and Faces, or Before and Behind the Curtain and his novel Peg Woffington, Charles Reade chose as his heroine the British actress Margaret Woffington (1714-1760), whom he showed on stage but especially off stage. The interest of these two works lies in the blurring of borders between appearances and reality. At the climactic point of the plot, the actress, a professional deceiver, pretends to be a painted portrait. This episode summarizes Reade’s approach : is a living art like theatre to be compared with those « dead » or lifeless arts, painting and sculpture ?
Le promeneur londonien au xixe siècle : une excursion dans l’obscur
Authors: Duperray Max 
Published: June 2024

This paper aims at analysing the appearance of a genre : urban wandering and its motives. The emergence of a witness sensitive to effects introduces the field of obscurity, a metaphor which underlies the discourse on poverty but also leads to a generic problem : what kind of text is produced by urban wandering ? The observer disrupts the picture. He is at the heart of a labyrinth and, in the wake of the Gothic tradition, his disorientation combines obscurity and unintelligibility. From Charles Lamb and De Quincey to Arthur Machen and even (a little later) Virginia Woolf, among others, the figure of the invisible bohemian recalls Baudelaire’s flâneur and the fictional character writing fiction. The city is « textualised » and the Peripatetic novelist torn between alienation and contamination becomes the origin of the Sublime, as signs prevail over their referent. The matrix for such texts is Poe’s « Man of the Crowd » with its opening on detection. The city becomes organic ; it turns into the fantastic body of paranoid fictions which amplify and express the poetics of urban peregrinations : an encounter of the Self and its Other.
Représenter le crime : permanences et inflexions (France, xixe siècle)
Authors: Kalifa Dominique 
Published: June 2024

Crime and delinquency have always been one of the major themes of popular culture and representations which fashion social imagination. In France, the July Monarchy (1830-1848) was a crucial moment in which representations, figures and renewed interpretations of this phenomenon converged. This trend has been very clearly described by Louis Chevalier in his book about working classes and dangerous classes (Classes laborieuses, et classes dangeureuses à Paris...). However, the last third of the nineteenth century was a new turning point : indeed following the rapid growth of cultural industries and the development of a parliamentary democracy, modes of representation began to change. The passion for inquiries which was then at its height, influenced the staging, the figures and the political assessment of criminal and delinquency cases, which are the origin of modern conceptions of insecurity.
ATP-elicited Cation Fluxes Promote Volume-regulated Anion Channel LRRC8/VRAC Transport cGAMP for Antitumor Immunity

Abstract
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)–stimulator of IFN genes (STING) pathway is instrumental to antitumor immunity, yet the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms are complex and still unfolding. A new paradigm suggests that cancer cells’ cGAS-synthesized cGAMP can be transferred to tumor-infiltrating immune cells, eliciting STING-dependent IFN-β response for antitumor immunity. Nevertheless, how the tumor microenvironment may shape this process remains unclear. In this study, we found that extracellular ATP, an immune regulatory molecule widely present in the tumor microenvironment, can potentiate cGAMP transfer, thereby boosting the STING signaling and IFN-β response in murine macrophages and fibroblasts. Notably, genetic ablation or chemical inhibition of murine volume-regulation anion channel LRRC8/volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC), a recently identified cGAMP transporter, abolished ATP-potentiated cGAMP transfer and STING-dependent IFN-β response, revealing a crucial role of LRRC8/VRAC in the cross-talk of extracellular ATP and cGAMP. Mechanistically, ATP activation of the P2X family receptors triggered Ca2+ influx and K+ efflux, promoting reactive oxygen species production. Moreover, ATP-evoked K+ efflux alleviated the phosphorylation of VRAC’s obligate subunit LRRC8A/SWELL1 on S174. Mutagenesis studies indicated that the phosphorylation of S174 on LRRC8A could act as a checkpoint for VRAC in the steady state and a rheostat of ATP responsiveness. In an MC38-transplanted tumor model, systemically blocking CD39 and ENPP1, hydroxylases of extracellular ATP and cGAMP, respectively, elevated antitumor NK, NKT, and CD8+ T cell responses and restrained tumor growth in mice. Altogether, this study establishes a crucial role of ATP in facilitating LRRC8/VRAC transport cGAMP in the tumor microenvironment and provides new insight into harnessing cGAMP transfer for antitumor immunity.
Synchronous primary parotid tuberculosis and EBV-associated primary lymphoepithelial carcinoma
Authors: Anbalagan Anandhi , Jain Deepti , Ravichander Senthil Kumar 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT
A 48-year-old gentleman presented with complaints of neck swelling in the parotid region for 2 years. Diagnostic nasal endoscopy and video laryngeal stroboscopy were normal, and positron emission tomography scan showed no other primary lesion. The lesion with tail of parotid was excised and sent for histopathological examination. Part of the tissue was also sent for diagnosis of tuberculosis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as it is a very common disease in South Asian countries. At this point, differentials considered were undifferentiated primary carcinoma, metastatic undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and primary lymphoepithelial carcinoma. At the same time, PCR for tuberculosis came positive with rifampicin sensitive in drug resistance testing. EBV by ISH testing came out to be positive. Final diagnosis of primary lymphoepithelial carcinoma with co-existing tuberculosis of parotid was made. The patient was started on antitubercular therapy.
A re-look at the modified Ryan regression scoring system in esophageal cancer—validation of prognostic significance and comparison with other less commonly used systems

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) using CROSS protocol is currently the treatment of choice for esophageal cancer (EC). Tumor response grade (TRG) is a mandatory reporting criterion in most guidelines. One of the most commonly used TRG systems is the modified Ryan system. We aim to assess the TRG using modified Ryan and seven other systems (Mandard, Chireac, Swisher, Japanese esophageal society guidelines, modified rectal cancer regression grading (mRCRG), CROSS, and Becker) to evaluate their reproducibility and role as a prognostic marker.

Materials and Methods:
Two pathologists independently reviewed all cases of post-NACRT (CROSS) EC, to score TRGs and other histological parameters. Inter-rater agreement assessment for different TRG systems and correlation with disease-free survival (DFS) was performed.

Results:
Our series includes 93 patients with predominantly mid-esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Complete pathological response (pCR) was noted in 47% (44/93) patients. The kappa inter-rater agreement score for the Ryan system was substantial (0.774), while it was almost perfect agreement for tumor percentage assessment-based systems (Swisher, CROSS, and Becker). Only the mRCRG TRGs correlated significantly with prognosis, while the Ryan system did not. Tumor stage and pCR status did not correlate with DFS, though the nodal stage was clinically significant.

Conclusion:
Though the inter-rater concordance was optimal for all the TRG systems studied, only the mRCRG system showed prognostic significance, while the commonly used modified Ryan system did not. It may be worthwhile to look at further evaluating other systems like mRCRG for inclusion in minimum dataset reporting.
Clinicopathological study of adrenal pheochromocytoma and extra-adrenal paragangliomas with reference to GAPP and PASS scoring systems
Authors: Mondal Akash , Sengupta Moumita , Dey Soumya , Kar Anish , Maiti Krishnendu , Sarkar Debansu , Chatterjee Uttara 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
The presence of distant metastasis is known to drastically reduce survival of adrenal pheochromocytoma (PH) and extra-adrenal paraganglioma (PGL). Therefore, predicting malignant potential has an immense impact on prognosis. Pheochtomocytoma of adrenal gland scaled score (PASS) and the grading of adrenal pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (GAPP) score are two histological algorithms used to predict metastatic potential, but neither has been regarded as ‘gold-standard’. Both these scoring systems are yet to be validated. Here, we tried to validate the association of GAPP/PASS scores with disease outcome and strength of association between individual GAPP/PASS parameters with prognosis.

Materials and Methods:
This was a prospective study comprising 22 pheochromocytomas and eight paragangliomas. GAPP score was calculated in paraganglioma cases, and both GAPP/PASS scores were calculated for pheochromocytomas. Disease outcome was then tallied with risk stratification of the GAPP/PASS scoring system. Succinate dehydrogenase B (SDHB) immunohistochemistry was done in 15 cases to see its impact on prognosis.

Results:
The common PASS parameters associated with malignancy were ‘high cellularity’, ‘tumor cell spindling’ and ‘extension into adipose tissue’. PASS score showed high sensitivity and negative predictive value but low specificity and positive predictive value. Similarly, GAPP score also showed high sensitivity and negative predictive value but low specificity and positive predictive value.

Conclusion:
In our study, GAPP/PASS scores successfully segregated tumor with low malignant potential from tumor with higher risk of metastasis, although specificity of GAPP was more than PASS. We also found that addition of objective parameters like SDHB immunohistochemistry may further increase the specificity of the existing scoring system.
