Du passage des cultures aux identit&eacute;s plurielles: bandes dessin&eacute;es et romans graphiques sino-francophones
Authors: Bernard Jean-Baptiste 
Published: June 2024

The field of graphic narratives linked to the Chinese cultural sphere is developing significantly in the francophone world. This movement is due to the translation of Chinese creators into French, francophone creators travelling to China, sinophone creators deciding to live in a francophone country or francophone creators of Chinese origins. This article is an introduction to this diverse and dynamic phenomenon, through a presentation of some trends in translation, then in graphic travelogues in China and finally the specific contributions of some creators. Among them, Chen Jiang Hong shares with his francophone readership Chinese pictural arts as much as his memories of the Cultural Revolution. Li-Chin Lin, a Taiwanese creator living in France, exposes in French the challenges of a personal itinerary constantly facing contradictory political ideologies. Finally, Kei Lam opens a path for francophone creations of artists with a sinophone background where the challenges of multiculturality stimulate a joyful reinvention of both self-identity and social togetherness.

RÉSUMÉ
Jean-Baptiste Bernard trace, dans cet article, le passage des cultures aux identités plurielles révélé dans des romans graphiques et des bandes dessinées sino-francophones. Il prend note du fait que le champ de ces ouvrages liés au monde chinois connaît un important développement dans le monde francophone. Auteurs chinois traduits en français, auteurs francophones voyageant en Chine, auteurs de pays sinophones décidant de vivre dans un pays francophone ou auteurs francophones d’origine chinoise en sont autant d’acteurs. Il propose une introduction à ce phénomène dynamique et transculturel à travers une présentation des tendances éditoriales en général, puis de certains auteurs en particulier. À titre d’exemple, Chen Jiang Hong, auteur et illustrateur d’albums pour la jeunesse, transmet aussi bien la culture traditionnelle de la Chine que l’histoire qui l’a mené à vivre en France. Li-Chin Lin, originaire de Taiwan, explore en français les défis du devenir individuel sans cesse confronté aux discours politiques, ceux du Parti communiste et du Kuomintang comme des libéraux européens. Enfin, Kei Lam inaugure une création francophone d’auteurs issus de l’immigration chinoise où les défis de la multiculturalité stimulent une réinvention heureuse du soi et du vivre-ensemble.

Abstract
HIP 65426 hosts a young giant planet that has become the first exoplanet directly imaged with JWST. Using time-series photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we classify HIP 65426 as a high-frequency δ Scuti pulsator with a possible large-frequency separation of Δν = 7.23 ± 0.02 cycles day−1. We check the TESS data for pulsation-timing variations and use the nondetection to estimate a 95% dynamical mass upper limit of 12.8 M
Jup for HIP 65426 b. We also identify a low-frequency region of signal that we interpret as stellar latitudinal differential rotation with two rapid periods of 7.85 ± 0.08 hr and 6.67 ± 0.04 hr. We use our TESS rotation periods together with published values of radius and

Complex Network View of the Sun’s Magnetic Patches. I. Identification
Authors: Tajik Zahra , Farhang Nastaran , Safari Hossein , Wheatland Michael S. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Solar and stellar magnetic patches (i.e., magnetic fluxes that reach the surface from the interior) are believed to be the primary sources of a star’s atmospheric conditions. Here, we apply the complex network approach and investigate its efficacy in the identification of these features. For this purpose, we use the line-of-sight magnetograms provided by the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory. We construct the magnetic network following a specific visibility graph condition between pairs of pixels with opposite polarities and search for possible links between these regions. The complex network facilitates the construction of node degrees and PageRank images, and applying the downhill algorithm to node-degree images allows for the grouping of pixels into features corresponding to one-to-one matches with magnetogram patches. This approach promisingly serves to identify the nontrivial morphological structure of the magnetic patches for small and large sizes. We observe that the changes in the features of the node-degree images effectively correspond to the cospatial magnetic patches over time. Through visual assessment, we estimate an average false-negative error rate of approximately 1% in identifying small-scale features (one or two pixels in size).
New records for the Helius Lepeletier &amp; Serville fauna (Diptera, Limoniidae) of China
Authors: Lv Hanhuiying , Xu Yuanyuan , Zhao Yufei , Lin Kejian , Zhang Xiao 
Published: June 2024

The genus Helius Lepeletier & Serville, 1828 is globally distributed with 232 species and subspecies, of which 25 have been known to occur in China. Amongst the Chinese Helius crane flies, 24 species are distributed in southern China. The species diversity of Helius in other Chinese regions may be severely underestimated due to a lack of investigation. Some investigations on crane flies in Inner Mongolia, China have been initiated by the authors together with other entomologists, with Helius being one of the key targets of attention.
Two Helius species, H. (Helius) flavus (Walker, 1856) and H. (H.) gracillimus Alexander, 1938, are added to the Chinese fauna. The two newly-recorded species also represent the first records of the crane fly tribe Elephantomyiini in Inner Mongolia. Re-descriptions and illustrations of the two newly-recorded species are presented.
El esperpento como relato identitario en ¡Que viva México! de Luis Estrada
Authors: Gutiérrez Emiliano Coello 
Published: June 2024

Luis Estrada est devenu, avec ses compatriotes et collègues Alexandro González Iñárritu, Guillermo del Toro et Alfonso Cuarón, l’un des quatre réalisateurs mexicains les plus connus au niveau international. L’œuvre d’Estrada se caractérise par une enquête sur la situation de son pays des années 1940 à nos jours, dans ce que l’on appelle sa « pentalogie », dont fait partie le film ¡Que viva México! défini par l’auteur lui-même comme un esperpento. Cette vision grotesque du monde est intéressante non seulement pour son aspect esthétique, mais aussi pour sa dimension historique, sociale, politique et morale.
Impact of Green Spaces on Workplace Stress: Insights from&nbsp; Software Companies in Colombo,&nbsp; Sri Lanka
Authors: Galappaththi H. G. S. S. , Hettiarachchi A. A. H 
Published: June 2024

Workplace stress is a common issue that can cause a range of debilitating health outcomes including depression, anxiety, cardiovascular diseases, musculoskeletal problems, or alcohol dependence of workers affecting their satisfaction, work efficiency and productivity. It was hypothesized that exposure to green spaces can reduce stress levels leading to workplace satisfaction due to the restorative effects of Nature. Literature establishes that a regular touch with Nature is required to reduce workplace stress while maintaining a balanced mental health. This field investigation tested stress levels after Exposure to Nature as a strategy to reduce stress at the workplace. It employed a case study method selecting three software companies in Sri Lanka. C1, C2, C3 were selected based on the existing levels of greenery with high, moderate, and low density of greenery, respectively. An online questionnaire survey was conducted with three volunteer groups of employees to test the level of Nature-contact, perceived stress, and satisfaction of employees. The study revealed a direct association between the density of greenery vs stress levels and satisfaction of employees. Respondents of C1 were less stressed (88%) and more satisfied (80%) with their job compared to the other two cases. Respondents of C3 were the most stressed (57%) and least satisfied (71%). 94% out of the total respondents perceived that exposure to green spaces increased perceived work efficiency via maintaining mental health (27% agreed, 67% strongly agreed). The study recommends increasing the level of exposure to Nature to boost satisfaction and work efficiency of employees in companies of Sri Lanka.

Abstract

Objective:
This study aimed to asses the impact of a physical barrier-based infection prevention and control (IPC) intervention in patient wards at a tertiary care center on patient-to-patient coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) transmission and cluster formation.

Materials and Methods:
A quasi-experimental study was conducted at a 1300-bedded South Indian tertiary care center. Barrier curtains were deployed between ward beds, accompanied by a social interaction protocol, at eight locations, each containing eleven 4-bedded cubicles accommodating 44 patient beds. A surveillance team daily audited adherence to mask usage, barrier curtains, and the social interaction protocol using a predefined checklist. An effective implementation hybrid design was employed to evaluate clinical impact (cluster formation) and implementation effectiveness (adherence to interventions) between the pre-implementation and post-implementation phases.

Results:
During the pre-implementation and post-implementation periods, 2398 and 1024 positive COVID-19 cases were recorded in the selected areas, respectively, with an average monthly positivity rate of 40%. The number of clusters decreased from three clusters with an average of 11.3 positive cases per cluster in the pre-implementation period to no clusters in the post-implementation period. Implementation effectiveness showed compliance rates of 90% for barrier curtain placement and 100% for the social interaction protocol.

Conclusion:
This study confirms that physical barriers, specifically curtains, are effective measures against nosocomial COVID-19 transmission. It underscores the importance of adopting context-specific, cost-effective strategies, especially in low-to-middle-income countries, and provides a strong rationale for further research and implementation of such interventions.

Authors: Pujara Shivangi M. , Khanna Shreya A. , Kalena Krupali D. , Jobanputra Dhaval H. , Jobanputra Leena H. , Mehta Manish N. 
Published: June 2024

Aim:
Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects an estimated 100 million Indians, ranking second globally in diabetic prevalence. Despite this, the correlation between DM and specific pulpal diagnoses remains underexplored. This study compares pulpal conditions in DM patients and nondiabetic controls.

Designs:
The study was started after taking ethical approval.

Subjects and Methods:
Two thousand and five hundred and sixty teeth were examined over 4 months at the institute, evenly distributed between diabetic and nondiabetic cases, we assessed diagnoses – normal pulp, reversible pulpitis (RP), symptomatic irreversible pulpitis, asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis, pulp necrosis (PN), missing teeth (MT), and root canal-treated teeth (RCT). Statistical analysis used the Chi-square test.

Results:
PN and MT prevalence in DM patients significantly exceeded the control group. Conversely, the control group showed higher RP prevalence in the older subgroup.

Conclusions:
PN prevalence was higher in diabetics, suggesting reduced pulp sensitivity in individuals over 60 years. This diminished sensitivity might lead to delayed dental treatment, increasing PN prevalence.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
Consumption of fresh foods such as fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens has increased worldwide over the past two decades. Although the health benefits of fresh produce are significant, the incidence of foodborne illness associated with contaminated produce has increased in recent years. The rapid dissemination of antibiotic resistance in humans, animals, and the environment has resulted in the frequent emergence of pathogenic bacteria and widespread health concerns related to contaminated vegetables.

METHODS:
The study was conducted in the Department of Microbiology, Stamford University Bangladesh with a total of 87 Isolates collected from 28 different street vendors from August 2023 to November 2023.

RESULTS:
Three major groups of bacteria were isolated, where 56% were Enterobacteriaceae, 23% were Vibrio spp. and 21% were Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, their antimicrobial susceptibility tests were done where all the isolates were resistant to vancomycin and erythromycin except for S. aureus. Majority of the isolates showed susceptibility against ciprofloxacin, meropenem, gentamycin, doxycycline, azithromycin, and chloramphenicol.

CONCLUSION:
The study found that most samples of common salad vegetables are colonized by a variety of microorganisms, posing a serious public health risk, and shows how antibiotics can be used judiciously to prevent various health risks.
THE NATURE OF HUMANISM AND ITS MODERN CRISIS
Authors: Nedorezov Vadim G. , Pisarchik Leonid Yu. , Strelets Yuri Sh. 
Published: June 2024

The essence of the humanistic worldview and the main stages of the evolution of the humanistic thought are analyzed. The emphasis is on the humanistic ideas of the Renaissance, as they constitute the essence of the humanistic worldview. These ideas influenced the subsequent development of philosophical thought — Modern times, Enlightenment and modernity. The authors of the article adhere to the classical approach in understanding the essence of humanism, interpreting humanism as a doctrine that arose in the Renaissance, and subsequently applied to new conditions. In modern philosophy, there has been a desire to correct some ideas of humanism taking into account the realities of modernity, but without changing the fundamental principles of humanism. The article also shows a trend taking place in modern Western philosophy, namely the emasculation of humanistic ideas. In this regard, the features and specifics of the crisis of humanism in the modern era are analyzed. The relevance of this study is due to the fact that it shows the essence and evolution of the ideas of humanism, which is important in the context of modern multidirectional anthropological discourses. The relevance is also explained by the study of the main points of the crisis of humanism taking place in modern Western philosophy. In this regard, the article provides a reasoned criticism of the anti-humanistic ideas of Western philosophers. The aim of the study is to compare the fundamental ideas of humanism and its ideological foundations with anti-humanistic and anti-anthropocentric positions widely represented in modern Western philosophy. In the course of the research, such methods as the method of historical and philosophical analysis and the comparative method were used. The novelty of the research consists in identifying a peculiar tendency of dehumanization, that is, the antihumanistic orientation of a number of concepts of Western philosophy (F. Nietzsche, M. Heidegger, M. Foucault, J. Baudrillard, J. Deleuze).

Published: June 2024

The article deals with the issue of neo-mythologism from a philosophical point of view as related to the category of mythological. The relevance of the study is due to the lack of differentiation of this concept in the field of philosophy. The article makes a meaningful attempt to reveal neo-mythologism as a philosophical phenomenon that originated in the Romanticism era, suggests that Romantic religious-philosophical works can be considered neo-mythologic. A typological comparison of archaic leitmotifs in the works of fairy tale writers E.T. Hoffmann and the Brothers Grimm with the mythological patterns of the religious scholar M. Eliade is carried out. The diversity of neo-mythological elements in the works of Romantics is analyzed, different cultural and philosophical layers are compared.
