Des lieux communs de la résistance artistique ? Analyse comparée des engagements de rappeurs africains en mobilité
Authors: Aterianus-Owanga Alice 
Published: October 2023

Cet article analyse les enchevêtrements entre art et engagement dans les scènes de rap africain en explorant la question (méconnue) des mobilités transnationales qui accompagnent les trajectoires de politisation des rappeurs. Il s’appuie sur l’analyse des biographies de trois rappeurs (du Gabon, du Sénégal et du Burkina Faso), qui s’affirment tous trois comme des artistes « engagés ». Il met au jour les influences et modalités d’action communes que ces rappeurs partagent, tout en démontrant qu’en fonction des contextes et des parcours individuels, ces références et influences communes conduisent à différents types d’engagements par la musique et à différentes expériences de la mobilité. Cet examen des mobilisations de rappeurs africains en mobilité contribue finalement à une compréhension plus large des rapports entre art et engagement, en éclairant la tension entre spécificités nationales et dimension « translocale » de ces mondes de l’art.

Aim. To study the morphology of neurons in the cerebral cortex of rat pups on day 20 under conditions of administration of a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (NOS) during placentation.Materials and methods. Outbred white female rats (n = 12) were randomly divided into 2 groups of 6 rats each. On the 11th day of pregnancy, the experimental group received a single intramuscular injection of N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L NAME) at a dose of 25 mg/kg, in the control group – once intramuscularly 0.9% NaCl solution. Born rat pups were randomly selected one from the mother. On the 20th day, after medical euthanasia, the brain was collected. In the anterior part of the frontal cortex, we studied the density and area of neurons, the size and shape of perikarya and the severity of their staining with toluidine blue. Results. In the experimental group of 20-day-old rat pups, compared to the control group, the density and area of neurons were less by 10% (p > 0.05) and 22% (p > 0.05), respectively, the shape of the perikarya also changed to elongated, the elongation factor increased by 0.3 units. (p < 0.05) and there was a sixfold increase in the proportion of hyperchromic neurons (p < 0.05), hyperchromic wrinkled (p < 0.001) neurons appeared, which were absent in control animals. Conclusion. Morphological changes in neurons of the cerebral cortex in rat pups born from females who received a NOS inhibitor during placentation may be a consequence of a decrease in the formation of nitric oxide in the neurons themselves and in the endothelium of the vessels supplying the brain

Various agricultural products are known to have anti-microbial, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory effects. As we can mention, Walnut (Juglans regia) husk, orange (Citrus sinensis) peel, Broad bean (Vicia faba) peel, and Nettle (Urtica urens) are proven to have antimicrobial and anticancer actions. Also, plant diseases such a Pectobacterium carotovorum, Ralstonia solanacearum, Dickeya chrysanthemi, and Pseudomonoas syringae are known to cause annual damage to plant products. Therefore, in the current study, the researchers evaluated their antibacterial activity on the mentioned bacteria under in vitro conditions. Extracts of J. regia husk, C. sinensis peel, V. faba outer peel and U. urens were prepared by maceration method and their anti-bacterial activity on P. carotovorum, D. chrysanthemi, P. syringae, R. solancearum was evaluated using blank disk and well diffusion to obtain minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values. J. regia (husk) and V. faba (outer peel) extracts revealed an anti-bacterial effect on all 4 studied bacteria, while C. sinensis (peel) only inhibited the growth of P. syringae and U. urens only had this effect on P. syringae and R. Solancearum. The inhibition zones varied from 8 to 14 mm, while almost all MIC and MBC rates were 6.25 and 12.5 mg/mL, respectively. Based on the antimicrobial results, the extracts that showed suitable antibacterial effects on certain bacteria can be further studied to be used as natural pesticides.

Hornstedtia alliacea has been traditionally used by indigenous people for a variety of medicinal purposes. This study aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of ethanol extracts of Galoba seeds (Hornstedtia alliacea) against standard bacterial cultures of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC-29213) and Escherichia coli (FNCC-6183) using Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. The phytochemical tests were carried out to determine the presence of active substances which are antibacterial in the results of the extraction. The color intensity or the precipitate formation was used as analytical response to these tests. The major phytochemical constituents identified in galoba seeds ethanol extracts were tannins, flavonoids, saponins, quinones, and steroids. The antibacterial assay showed that galoba seed extract inhibited the growth of S. aureus and E. coli. The diameter of the inhibition zone increased as the extract concentration increased. The largest inhibition zone for S. aureus was at a concentration of 100% with a diameter of 20.93 mm and the largest inhibition zone for E. coli was at a concentration of 100% with a diameter of 18.05 mm. The results of this study indicated that the plant contains some major bioactive compounds that inhibit the growth of microorganisms, thereby showing great potency as an effective source of drugs. The phytochemical analysis also reveals that the plant contains similar constituents useful for medicinal purposes.
Osmanlı-Rus Savaşı Bağlamında Doğu Karadeniz’de Kadın Faaliyetleri
Authors: NURDAN Semiha 
Published: October 2023

Birinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında Kafkas Cephesinin düşmesi üzerine Ruslar karadan ve denizden Doğu Karadeniz bölgesini abluka altına almıştır. 1916-1918 yılları arasında bölge halkı büyük acılar yaşamıştır. Bu acıların başında bölge ahalisinin kendi topraklarında muhacir durumuna düşmesi ve zorunlu göç gelmektedir.
Bu çalışma kapsamında, Doğu Karadeniz’de Rus işgali sırasında bölgedeki kadın faaliyetleri incelenmiştir. Doğu Karadeniz’de savaş yıllarında cephede ve cephe gerisinde hizmet veren Türk kadınları iki kategoride değerlendirilmiştir. Birincisi cephede düşmana karşı bizzat omuz omuza savaşan kadınlardır. İkincisi cephe gerisinde cephane fabrikalarında veya geri hizmet sınıfında hastabakıcılık, terzilik, aşçılık gibi hizmet veren kadınlarıdır. Bu kadınların faaliyetleri ATASE evrakları üzerinde yapılan çalışma neticesinde belgeleriyle birlikte ortaya konulmuştur. Bu istilayı fırsat bilip işgal kuvvetleri yanında yer alan ve onlara hizmet eden Gayrımüslim kadınlar vardır. Bu evraklardan edinilen bilgiler ışığında bölgede zararlı faaliyetlerde bulunan ecnebi kadınların faaliyetleri incelenmiştir. Doğu Karadeniz bölgesinde yaşayan veya İstanbul’dan bu bölgeye sevk edilen Ermeni ve Rum kadınların başta casusluk faaliyetleri olmak üzere birçok zararlı faaliyette bulunduklarını tespit ettik. Kadınların bu faaliyetleri devlet tarafından yakından takip edilmiş ve Türk askerinin zarar görmemesi için tahriratlar yayınlanmıştır.
Alternatif Bir Vidinli Hüseyin Tevfik Paşa Portresi

Published: October 2023

19. Yüzyıl Osmanlı modernleşmesi ifadesi genel anlamıyla hem gelenekselliği hem de bazen fazlasıyla temkinli bir geçmişi geride bırakmayı ifade eder. Bu ikiliğin en dikkat çekici tarafı II. Mahmud (1785-1839) döneminden itibaren eski ve yeninin Osmanlılara has şekliyle “birlikte” götürülmeye çalışılmasıydı. Bu çaba farklı bir açıdan enerji ve zaman kaybı algısı yaratıyor olsa da diğer yandan o zamanlarda yaşamış önemli kişilerin çabalarını güçlü bir farkındalık düzeyinde algılayışın yolunu açmaktadır. Yenilginin ve yenilenmenin kol kola yürüdüğü “imparatorluğun en uzun yüzyılı” her bakımdan geniş bir perspektiften yorumlanmaya ihtiyaç duyar. Bu geniş perspektif ise askeriyeyi, bürokrasiyi ve bilimi temel alır.
Bu temellerin isminde birleştiği tarihi kişiliklerden en önemlilerinden birisi Vidinli Tevfik Bey’dir. Farklı zaman dilimlerinde ve görevlerde “Vidinli Tevfik Paşa, General Hüseyin Tevfik, Tevfik Paşa, Müşir (Mareşal) Vidinli Hüseyin Tevfik Paşa” isimleriyle anılacak olan bu isim, Osmanlıların ünü dışarıya taşmış en önemli matematikçisidir. Uluslararası matematik camiasında ilk İngilizce cebir kitabının yazarı olarak kabul görür. Aynı zamanda askeri ve sivil bürokratik görevler üstlenmiştir. Bu görevleri icra ederken takındığı dürüst ve işini ciddiye alır tavrı göreve gittiği yabancı devletlerin temsilcileri tarafından yaşamında ve ölümünden sonra takdir edilirken; onun doğru bildiğini devletinin yararına uygulaması her zaman takdir görmediği gibi uzun vadede de görevinden azline giden sürecin domino etkisini oluşturmuştur.
Çalışmamızda eldeki pek az kaynakla adeta birbirini tekrarlayan bir görünümde olan Matematik veTarih çalışmalarından farklı olarak Paşa’nın kişiliği, anılarda bıraktığı izler ve yararlılıkları birincil ve ikincil kaynaklar irdelenerek incelenecektir. Bir psikolojik analiz amacı gütmeyen çalışmamızda, Vidinli Tevfik’in içerde ve dışarda yarattığı etki ve çizdiği imajla birlikte onun kişiliğinde dönemin Osmanlı bilim ve devlet adamlarının modernleşme çabalarının anlaşılmasına çalışılacaktır. Böylece alanda çalışmaya hazırlanan araştırmacılar için gerçekçi bir portre oluşturulması ve gelecek çalışmaların yorumlayış temellerine fayda sağlanması hedeflenmektedir.

Sobre a distinção entre prudência e moralidade em Kant e Crusius: considerações sobre a origem da doutrina do imperativo categórico
Authors: Cunha Bruno 
Published: October 2023

É indiscutível a extensão da originalidade e da importância da ética de Kant. O que talvez não seja tão evidente é que a filosofia moral de Kant como um todo não foi uma teoria subitamente construída, mas dependeu de um extenso e profundo debate com a tradição filosófica, sobretudo, a representada pela escolástica alemã, com uma consequentemente apropriação ou assimilação de vários de seus aspectos. No que diz respeito a história do desenvolvimento da doutrina do imperativo categórico, em particular, não é possível ser indiferente í influência da filosofia prática do filósofo e teólogo alemão do iluminismo, Christian August Crusius. Meu objetivo nesse artigo é , dessa forma, o de tentar identificar, levando em conta a distinção da praxis em necessidade problemática e moral e o contraste entre prudência e moralidade, alguns pontos de interseção entre as filosofia morais de Crusius e Kant em sua origem.

Pulmonary Physiotherapy in Kidney Recipients: Evaluation of Effects on Functional Capacity
Authors: Zeydan Zuhal , Ergin Makbule 
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Renal replacement therapy (RRT), including dialysis and kidney transplantation (KT), is employed for treating patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Among RRT options, KT offers the highest quality of life (QoL) and overall survival. However, pulmonary complications following KT remain significant contributors to morbidity, mortality, and potential graft failure. The primary objective of this study is to assess the impact of respiratory and strengthening exercises on respiration, body composition, physical performance, and QoL of the patients following KT. Materials and Methods: Preoperative assessments included forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), 6-minute walking test (6MWT) scores, body composition measurements, hand grip strength, and QoL scores using the Short Form 36 Scale (SF-36) for the patients undergoing their first KT at Antalya Medical Park Hospital. Participants were randomly assigned to two groups. The experimental group (EG) received respiratory exercises until discharge, followed by combined respiratory, upper, and lower extremity strengthening exercises three days a week for two weeks post-discharge, while the control group (CG) received standard care. Measurements were repeated at the end of the third postoperative week, and the changes from the initial measurements were statistically compared between the groups. Results: Demographic characteristics were comparable between the groups. The SF-36 physical function sub-parameter demonstrated a significant increase in the experimental group, while it decreased in the control group. Pain sub-parameter scores and grip strengths of the SF-36 QoL scale did not exhibit statistically significant changes in either group. Conclusion: Implementing early respiratory physiotherapy and strengthening program over three weeks following KT improved QoL and physical function significantly.
USING MULTIPLE IMPUTATION AND INVERSE PROBABILITY WEIGHTING TO ADJUST FOR MISSING DATA IN HIV PREVALENCE ESTIMATES
Authors: MHIKE TINASHE , TODD JIM , URASSA MARK , MOSHA NEEMA R. 
Published: October 2023

Introduction
Population surveys and demographic studies are the gold standard for estimating HIV prevalence. However, non-response in these surveys is of major concern, especially if it is not random and complete case analysis becomes an inappropriate data analysis method. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis that will account for the missing data must be used to obtain unbiased HIV prevalence estimates.
Methods
Serological samples were collected from participants who were residents of a Demographic Surveillance System (DSS) in Kisesa, Tanzania. HIV prevalence was estimated using three methods. Firstly, using the Complete case analysis (CCA), assuming data were Missing Completely at Random (MCAR). The other two methods, multiple imputations (MI) and inverse probability weighting (IPW) assumed that non-response was missing at random (MAR). For MI, a logistic regression model adjusting for age, sex, residence, and marital status was used to impute 20 datasets to re-estimate the HIV prevalence. The propensity for participating in the sero-survey and being tested for HIV given age, sex, residence, and marital status were generated using logistic regression models. Using the propensity scores, inverse probability weights were derived for participants who were tested for HIV.
Results
The overall CCA HIV prevalence estimate was 6.6% (95% CI: 6.0-7.2), with 5.4% (95% CI: 4.6-6.3) in males and 7.3% (95% CI: 6.6-8.1) in females. Using MI, the overall HIV prevalence was 6.8% (95% CI: 6.2-7.5), 6.2% (95% CI: 5.1-7.3) in males, and 7.4% (95% CI: 6.6-8.2) in females. Using IPW the overall HIV prevalence was 6.7% (95% CI: 6.1-7.4), with 5.5% (95% CI: 4.7-6.5) in males and 7.7% (95% CI: 7.0 - 8.6) in females. HIV prevalence differed significantly between age groups (p<0.001), with the highest estimate in males aged 35-39 and females aged 40-44, and the lowest in both males and females aged 15-19 years.
Conclusion
Complete case analysis underestimates HIV prevalence compared to methods that adjust for missing data. After comparing CCA, MI, and IPW, we found out that the best method to adjust for missing data in population surveys is through the use of multiple imputations.
DETERMINANTS OF SELF-REFERRAL FROM PRIMARY TO SECONDARY LEVEL HEALTH FACILITIES AMONG OUTPATIENTS IN TANZANIA
Authors: MALALE MANYIZI , LYIMO BONIPHACE , MOLLEL HENRY A. , KACHOLI GODFREY 
Published: October 2023

Introduction
In Tanzania, self-referrals have been one of the sources of underutilization of primary-level health facilities resulting in the overutilization and overburdening of secondary-level health facilities. A significant number of patients receiving services at the outpatient departments in the secondary-level health facilities could have been served at the primary health facilities. Understanding of determinants of self-referral is critical to informing important interventions to improve the referral processes and rational utilization of health facilities at the two levels.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 230 outpatients at Katavi Regional Referral Hospital in Tanzania. A convenient sampling method was used to enroll study participants. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. STATA version 15 was used to analyze data descriptively while the chi-square test was performed to establish the association between dependent and independent variables at a p-value of less than 0.05.
Results
The magnitude of self-referral was 66.5%. The perceived determinants of self-referral were quality of care offered (90.8 %), availability of medicine (89.4%), proximity of health facility (88.8%), and patient-perceived severity of the disease (86.7%). The availability of medicine (p= 0.015), quality of care offered (p=0.00), location of the facility (p=0.044), place of residence (p=0.04), and patient-perceived severity of disease (p=0.017) were statistically significantly associated with the self-referral practices.
Conclusion
The magnitude of self-referral practice was high. Availability of essential medicines, quality of care offered by the hospital, hospital proximity, patient-perceived severity of the disease, and availability of barriers to accessing healthcare in lower-level facilities were factors significantly associated with the self-referral practice. It is recommended that continuous investment should be made in lower-level facilities to ensure patients receive the care they need at every point of care.
