Sortir des guerres de Religion
Authors: Giraudier Fanny 
Published: January 2025

Le début du règne d’Henri IV est marqué par une politique de pacification religieuse qui passe par des conquêtes militaires, des négociations, des traités de paix et un édit garantissant la liberté de culte dans le royaume, dont les ressorts sont déjà bien connus. Dans ce contexte particulier, le rétablissement de la cour reste un impensé de l’action politique du premier Bourbon. La formation de cette société curiale après des années de guerres et de contestation de la légitimité d’Henri IV n’est pourtant pas évidente et mérite une attention particulière. Le roi n’en est pas le seul ordonnateur car il doit composer avec une noblesse qui réintègre progressivement cet espace de pouvoir, non sans quelques prétentions. Les relations entre le souverain et la noblesse sont donc au cœur de cet ouvrage : qu’il s’agisse du premier entourage du roi lors de son accession au trône, de la composition des domesticités royales ou de la troupe de fidèles qui partagent les plaisirs de la cour. Celle-ci devient un instrument aux mains du souverain qui orchestre son quotidien et impose sa propre conception du cérémonial, mais elle est également le lieu où se forment les conflits et où se fomentent parfois des complots qui traduisent les fragilités de l’édifice monarchique et les contestations dont le pouvoir bourbonien peut faire l’objet.
The impact of green human resource management practices on organisational sustainability through green knowledge sharing
Authors: Khawaja Aimun , Janjua Khalida N. 
Published: January 2025

Orientation: This study investigated the linkage between Green Human Resource Management Practices (GHRMP) and organisational sustainability (OS).Research purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of GHRMP on OS with the mediating effect of green knowledge sharing (GKS).Motivation for the study: This research is pioneering in the Pakistani context, representing the significance of GHRMP in fostering OS.Research approach/design and method: This research employed survey questionnaire, and, using purposive sampling, data were collected from 420 managerial-level employees working in the textile industry of Pakistan. Data analysis was done using structural equation modelling with the use of Smart Partial Least Squares 4.0 software.Main findings: The study established a positive direct relationship between GHRMP and OS and also between GHRMP and GKS. This study also revealed that GKS has a significant mediation role in the relationship between GHRMP and OS.Practical/managerial implications: Managers in the textile sector can prioritise hiring individuals who value and possess skills in OS. They can implement training programmes that focus on sustainability practices like waste reduction and energy conservation. Managers can integrate environmental criteria into performance evaluation which motivates employees to prioritise sustainability in their roles. Top management support for GHRMP builds competencies that enhance environmental performance. Organisations aiming for sustainability should implement GHRMP at both organisational and individual levels to foster eco-friendly actions across the workforce.Contribution/value-add: The study provides useful recommendations for organisations on environmental issues especially in an emerging economy like Pakistan. It also innovatively examines the ways by which GHRMP can enhance OS in the textile sector of Punjab, Pakistan, where extensive industrialisation and environmental pollution are evident. Future research could discover additional dimensions of this concept with various mediators and moderators in different geographical contexts.

Authors: Ranpariya Pooja N. , Solanki Harsha M. , Chudasama Rajesh K. 
Published: January 2025

Background:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused a significant disruption of all healthcare services. Tuberculosis (TB) services were also affected by the COVID-19 pandemic policies. Therefore, this study was planned to observe whether TB services and treatment outcome were affected in pre-COVID, COVID, and post-COVID eras among TB patients.

Materials and Methods:
Secondary data analysis was carried out from the data obtained from District Tuberculosis Centre. Comparison of TB care data includes notification, diagnosis, treatment services, and outcome for the pre-COVID, COVID, and post-COVID periods.

Results:
TB notifications and diagnostic services were significantly hampered during the COVID-19 period as compared to pre-COVID and post-COVID periods (P < 0.05). However, in those diagnosed with TB, treatment was initiated timely and regular follow-up was done by health care workers to ensure treatment adherence, and hence, more cure rate was reported in the study. High mortality during COVID-19 period was found.

Conclusion:
TB care was significantly restrained during COVID-19 pandemic, and further reclamation of services occurred during the declining phase of COVID-19.
The Prevalence and Risk Factors of Postpartum Depression in Western India: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Kansagra Dharti J. , Amin Chikitsa D. , Chauhan Rajendra B. 
Published: January 2025

Background:
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a nonpsychotic mental health condition associated with child birth. It poses a major global public health challenge as it remains unrecognized most of the time and impairs both the immediate and long-term health of both the mother and child. The study was conducted to estimate the prevalence and associated risk factors for PPD.

Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 450 women who delivered babies within the past 1–12 months and attending a tertiary care hospital during April to November 2021. Systemic random sampling was used to obtain the desired sample size. Basic sociodemographic variables (age, duration of postpartum period, residence, religion, education, occupation, birth spacing, complication during pregnancy, desired gender of child, birth weight of baby) related to pregnancy were collected. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale was used to estimate the prevalence of PPD.

Results:
The prevalence of PPD in the study was 14.2%. The mean ± standard deviation age of women was 27.1 ± 4.7 years. Sociodemographic factors such as maternal age, low level of education, and family type and obstetric factors such as age at first pregnancy, parity, and history of abortion were significantly associated with PPD (P < 0.05).

Conclusion:
Risk factors related to sociodemographic and obstetric history were found to be significantly associated with PPD. To prevent major depression in postpartum, early detection and timely referral are needed.
Is Objective Structured Practical Examination a Better Option than Conventional Practical Examination in Assessing Students’ Competency? An Analytical Research
Authors: Rout Arup J. , Dasgupta Pallabi , Saha Tushar K. , Biswas Daliya 
Published: January 2025

Background:
There was always a need for some innovative assessment method like an objective structured practical examination (OSPE) which is objective, reliable, and valid over conventional practical examinations (CPEs), which lack objectivity and reliability and carries risk of teachers’ bias as learning is assessment-driven. The aim of this study was to find out the effectiveness of OSPE over CPE among seventh-semester medical students and to assess the objectivity of structured questions among different OSPE stations.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 207 students appeared in the seventh-semester examination in community medicine, and they were divided into three groups depending on their total marks. Each student had to face both OSPE stations and conventional viva voce tables and their scores were recorded. A paired T-test was done to assess differences in mean marks between OSPE and CPE. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was done to compare the OSPE station-wise mean among different series of examinations.

Results:
The high-scorer students secured significantly higher mean marks of 30.30 ± 3.94 in OSPE than in CPE (26.93 ± 3.85). The mean marks obtained by high-scorer students showed no significant difference except in one station. Among the low-scorer group, statistically significant differences in mean marks were found among various stations.

Conclusions:
OSPE is an effective tool of assessment than CPE. Still, meticulous care is to be taken in designing respective OSPEs, and proper training of assessors is also needed, to avoid biases.
An Assessment of High-Risk Sexual Behavior and Associated Factors Among Self-identified Hijras Residing in an Urban Slum of Mumbai, India
Authors: Mundhe Deepak K. , Qureshi Saniya S. , Chavan Yuvaraj B. 
Published: January 2025

Background:
A high proportion of sexual minorities like Hijras/Eunuch engage in sex work and thus become a high-risk population for HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Hence, we conducted a study with objective to assess prevalence of high-risk behavior among self-identified Hijras/Eunuch and associated factors.

Material and Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted in a field practice area of Tertiary Care Hospital from December 2019 to December 2020. All participants in the age group of 18 to 45 years were interviewed. Univariate and bivariate analysis was done to determine the correlates.

Results:
Out of 163, 85% of participants were involved in high-risk sexual behavior and 46.63% did only sex work, 51.5% of participants had comprehensive knowledge about HIV/STI. On applying logistic regression, the factors associated with high-risk sexual behavior include 18–24 years of age group, history of addiction, practicing paid sex, using psychotropic substances, comprehensive knowledge regarding HIV/STI, and comprehensive exposure to preventive measures.

Conclusion:
Our study ﬁndings suggest the urgent need for appropriate preventive measures to understand and address sexual health and risk behavior vulnerabilities faced by Hijras to make signiﬁcant progress against the HIV epidemic in the country.

Authors: Wang Ying-Dong , Jin Tong , Zhang Yuan-Yuan , Zhan Ling-Min , Cheng Cai-Ping , Zhao Jin-Zhong , Zhang Wu-Xia , Fu Bang-Ze , Li Peng , Li Tian-Gang 
Published: January 2025

Objective:
Patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) experience various symptoms such as fever, cough, fatigue, and headache. At present, only two traditional over-the-counter medications, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen, are recommended for treating COVID-19 symptoms. However, there is an urgent need to discover safer remedies, potentially found in daily food items, that can be used for long-term prevention of COVID-19 symptoms. This study aimed to explore safe natural products capable of alleviating COVID-19 symptoms.

Materials and Methods:
We developed a Transcriptome-based Functional Gene Module Reference (TFGMR) approach, utilizing gene expression data from natural products and gene modules associated with COVID-19. Our hypothesis was that candidate natural products would significantly inhibit the expression of genes linked to COVID-19 symptoms without enhancing the expression of genes related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 invasion.

Results:
Using the TFGMR approach, we identified 109 natural products with the potential to alleviate COVID-19 symptoms, with 15 of them having experimental evidence supporting their efficacy. These natural products consist of three daily food items – olive oil, nuts, and a mixture of vegetables, fruits, and yogurt; 43 functional foods, such as Fructus Gardeniae and Flos Lonicerae; as well as 63 natural drugs such as Plantamajoside and Safflomin A. These findings suggest that incorporating these three daily food items into one’s diet may contribute to the prevention of COVID-19.

Conclusions:
The study underscores the importance of recommending functional foods based on robust scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. The integration of diverse technological approaches holds promise in identifying safe remedies that could aid in the prevention and alleviation of COVID-19 symptoms, providing new opportunities for their everyday use.
Diffusive convective elliptic problem in variable exponent space and measure data
Authors: Soma Safimba , Konaté Ibrahime , Kaboré Adama 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
In this article, we study a class of convective diffusive elliptic problem with Dirichlet boundary condition and measure data in variable exponent spaces. We begin by introducing an approximate problem via a truncation approach and Yosida’s regularization. Then, we apply the technique of maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces to obtain a sequence of approximate solutions. Finally, we pass to the limit and prove that this sequence of solutions converges to at least one weak or entropy solution of the original problem. Furthermore, under some additional assumptions on the convective diffusive term, we prove the uniqueness of the entropy solution.
Exploring targeted policies and institutional frameworks to address the problem of child streetism in Ethiopia
Authors: Zewude Bewunetu , Tadele Getnet , Engdawork Kibur , Assefa Samuel 
Published: January 2025

Background: Child streetism has long become a major public concern in Ethiopia. With rapid urbanization and deepening social problems, street children are likely to increase in the future. The establishment of targeted policies and institutional arrangements could help provide a framework for viable interventions. This article aims to identify existing policy frameworks and institutional arrangements targeting street children in Ethiopia.
Methods : Purposely selected child-focused and social protection-oriented policy frameworks were reviewed using a desk review method between August and September 2023. Data were analyzed using content analysis.
Results: Though a comprehensive national policy specifically targeting street children is lacking, varying levels of coverage has been given to the issue of child streetism directly or indirectly in the existing national policies. Institutional arrangements established at all levels from the federal to kebele level are also in place to facilitate the provision of social protection services for vulnerable children. There is discrepancy between rhetoric and practice: despite the policies are designed based on human rights-based approach (HRBA), interventions targeting street children are often guided by institutional approach. Non-governmental organizations play a dominant role in the provision of various services to street children, while the role of the government in the implementation of the policies is limited.
Conclusion: The study indicated mismatch between the principles that guided the establishment of the policy frameworks and their implementation. We suggest increased role of the government in the implementation of the policies guided by the HRBA.
Gathoni’s Aggression in Ngugi wa Thiong’o and Ngugi Wa Mirii’s Play <i>Nitaolewa Nikipenda</i>: A Representation of Africa’s Desired Political, Social and Economic Autonomy
Authors: Kilatu Emmanuel 
Published: January 2025

This paper was guided by the Post-colonial Theory with a focus on Frantz Fanon’s leanings on life aspects of the formerly colonised Africans. It was also guided by African Feminism in its analysis and discussion of the findings. It is based on Frantz Fanon’s ideas and arguments contained in his book The Wretched of the Earth (1965). Some of the ideas contained in this book were used as lenses to discuss Ngugi wa Thiong’o and Ngugi wa Mirii’s Kiswahili translation of their play I Will Marry When I Want (1982) translated as Nitaolewa Nikipenda (1982). It singles out Gathoni, a female character in the play who, throughout the story line, is projected as potentially aggressive, independent minded and as a character who does not allow others to manipulate her in any way. Together with Fanon’s perspectives on Africans’ liberation and African Feminism literary lenses, this paper argues that, Gathoni sharply contrasts with a traditional African woman who has been projected in literary works as docile, unassertive and who depends on others especially men for her welfare. This work was a library-based study whose data were collected through close reading of both play versions; that is the Kiswahili and the English version to facilitate easy translation of the quotations. These were the primary data. The review of different documents including journal articles and dissertations both as hard copy and soft copy materials on the internet generated the secondary data. The findings reveal that, Gathoni’s aggression and independent mindedness is the writers’ representation or projection of social, economic and political freedom that they would aspire the formerly colonised Africans to possess.
Ліквідація слідів нацистських злочинів: «зондеракція–1005»
Authors: Михайлюк М.В. 
Published: January 2025

Нині зберігається потреба у висвітленні маловідомих сторінок часів Другої світової війни, нацистської окупації теренів СРСР. Однією з таких сторінок є питання утилізації тіл вбитих радянських громадян (цивільних, військовополонених), захоронених у великих масових могилах, розскиданих по всій території країн Балтії, Білорусі, України. Протягом нацистської окупації ідеологічних ворогів Рейху, насамперед євреїв, комуністів, комісарів та інший «політично небезпечний елемент» (підпільників, партизанів, саботажників), масово винищували чотири німецькі айнзацгрупи РСГА, додаткові мобільні оперативні формування СС і СД, поліцейські формування (полки, батальйони), стаціонарні підрозділи поліції безпеки і СД, інші підрозділи. Усі каральні структури були напряму підпорядковані РСГА і безпосередньо рейхсфюреру СС, адже виконували накази Гіммлера, Гейдріха, Мюллера.
У статті наголошено, що «зондеракція-1005», організована в РСГА, мала таємний статус і однакову методику утилізації трупів по всіх окупованих регіонах. Відтак те, що відбувалося в Україні не є винятком, а вписувалося в загальні правила, розроблені для східних земель. «Зондеракція» на теренах СРСР розпочалася влітку 1943 р. (напередодні відступу німців) і тривала до осені 1944 р. (моменту звільнення території червоноармійцями). Методика утилізації трупів на східних окупованих територіях повністю дублювала ті методи, які застосовувалися у «таборах смерті» акції «Рейнгард» (польської Генеральної губернії), а також в Хелмно і Біркенау (Аушвіц-II) (анексованої території Польщі). У статті проаналізовані: центри масових вбивств і захоронення трупів в країнах бальії, Білорусі, України; залучення до «зондеракції» в’язнів тюрем СД, таборів-гетто, виправно-трудових таборів, таборів для радянських військовополонених як основних виконавців утилізаційних робіт; охоронно-контролюючі функції німецького персоналу. Залучені спогади свідків подій з різних частин окупаційних зон Білорусі та України. Маловідомі аспекти окупаційної дійсності були частково опрацьовані у роботах зарубіжних і окремих українських науковців, але потребують більш ґрунтовного вивчення й переосмислення.

Authors: Kanchanawongpaisan Sipnarong , Yan Tang 
Published: January 2025

Objectives: This research aimed to examine the impact of various factors on sustainable construction practices (SCP) within Bangkok’s construction industry, focusing on regulatory influence, cost implications, stakeholder commitment, and carbon emission reduction.

Methods: The study employed Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze both direct and indirect effects of these factors on SCP. Carbon emission reduction was specifically investigated as a mediating factor that amplified the influence of regulatory policies on SCP.

Results: The findings revealed that regulatory influence played a significant role in promoting SCP. It had both direct and mediated effects on SCP, which were stronger than the impacts of cost implications and stakeholder commitment. The developed model integrated environmental, economic, and stakeholder factors, offering insights tailored to Bangkok’s unique regulatory and socio-economic context.

Conclusion: The study concluded that robust regulatory frameworks, when combined with effective stakeholder engagement, are essential for supporting sustainable practices in urban construction. These results provide valuable guidance for policymakers and industry leaders working to promote sustainability in Bangkok’s rapidly growing infrastructure sector.
