Variations sur le thème de l’ennui dans Le Rouge et le Noir. Enjeux éthiques et sociopolitiques
Authors: Cavaliere Emiliano 
Published: February 2025

Le thème de l’ennui est un lieu commun de la littérature du XIXe siècle : Chateaubriand, Musset, Baudelaire ont parmi beaucoup d’autres contribué à approfondir l’héritage de la lecture déjà rousseauiste du mal du siècle – lecture déterministe, qui en fait le plus souvent le malaise de la classe aristocratique en crise après la Révolution. Cet article s’attache cependant à étudier la singularité des figurations de l’ennui dans Le Rouge et le Noir : Stendhal, une référence moins prise en considération à l’égard de ce motif, en propose en effet une variation intéressante, qui déconstruit ce cliché littéraire sans en anéantir les contours. Loin d’être exclusivement le résultat d’un déterminisme de classe, l’ennui devient parfois le moteur de l’action des protagonistes stendhaliens : au lieu d’apparaître comme un malaise purement historico-social, il se transforme alors en instrument éthique dans les mains du sujet moderne.
Camille Pernon à la cour d’Espagne, un nouveau regard
Authors: García Pilar Benito 
Published: February 2025

Pour évaluer le succès commercial de la manufacture de Camille Pernon en Espagne et sa continuité sous la direction de Grand frères, il est nécessaire d’examiner d’autres personnalités françaises qui se sont établies en Espagne, notamment avant et après la guerre franco-espagnole déclenchée à la mort de Louis XVI et la rupture des relations commerciales entre les deux pays entre 1793 et 1795. Parmi elles, Claudio Bodoy, marchand installé en Espagne depuis plusieurs années, ainsi que Jean-Antoine Michel - Juan Antonio Miquel - qui a été envoyé par Pernon pour établir, avec l’appui royal, une manufacture à Valence, une ville à la longue tradition de tissage en Espagne depuis le Moyen Âge. Ces relations franco-espagnoles ont permis l’arrivée précoce du mécanisme Jacquard en Espagne en 1818. Les relations de ces figures avec la cour de Madrid, les commissions royales réparties entre Lyon et les manufactures espagnoles font partie de cette étude et éclairent l’état actuel de la recherche.

Background: Identifying biomarkers predictive of future best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO-MO) is crucial for improving risk assessment, management strategies and patient consultations.Aim: This study aimed to identify baseline optical coherence tomography (OCT) predictors of visual prognosis in RVO-MO following intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection.Setting: The study was conducted at Cicendo Eye Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia.Methods: Retrospective study of 36 treatment-naïve eyes with RVO-MO (22 eyes with central retinal vein occlusion and 14 eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion). Each eye received at least three monthly IVB injections with a minimum follow-up of 4 months. Assessment of baseline OCT images focused on a 3-mm-wide retinal area centred on the fovea. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed.Result: There was a significant improvement in mean BCVA from 1.15 ± 0.42 logMAR to 0.80 ± 0.55 logMAR (P 0.001) and a reduction in mean central macular thickness (CMT) from 732.2 μm ± 298.9 μm to 437.7 μm ± 352.9 μm (P 0.001). Univariate regression analysis highlighted worse baseline BCVA and higher baseline CMT as factors correlating with poorer outcomes post-treatment. Several OCT biomarkers such as disorganisation of the retinal inner layer (DRIL) and disruption of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) and the external limiting membrane (ELM) were identified but did not show significant associations with final BCVA after multivariate analysis.Conclusion: Baseline OCT biomarkers may elucidate the extent of vision loss; however, they may not be reliable in predicting treatment outcomes.

Published: February 2025

Background: Kidney disease is a growing non-AIDS-related comorbidity among people living with HIV (PLWH). Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) can result in proximal tubulopathy and acute tubular injury, whereas atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/r) can cause interstitial nephritis and renal stones, both of which can lead to chronic kidney disease.Objectives: To examine the relationship between second-line combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) and the risk of kidney disease and morphological changes among PLWH in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.Method: A cross-sectional study of adult PLWH receiving TDF-based second-line ART. Socio-demographic and clinical data were gathered, and laboratory tests were conducted to determine the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Ultrasonography was performed to visualise the kidneys.Results: A total of 323 patients were enrolled (67.8% women), with a median age of 44 (interquartile range [IQR]: 39–51) years. Patients were on second-line ART for a median of 49 [IQR: 25–73] months, and 60% received ATV/r. Low eGFR ( 90 mL/min per 1.73 m2) was found in 22% of patients, proportionately higher among patients on ATV/r compared to those on a lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) (P 0.05). Nearly one-third (32.2%) of patients had a triad of renal calcinosis, renal calculi, and nephritis on ultrasonography. Patients using ATV/r had significantly smaller kidney volumes and greater proportions of renal calculi and nephritis compared to those on LPV/r (P 0.05).Conclusion: Adults on second-line ART containing TDF were found to have a high prevalence of renal kidney disease in the Tanzanian context. Predictors of kidney disease were older age, proteinuria, and ATV/r-based regimen as compared to LPV/r.

Abstract

Background:
The mandible is the most common fractured facial bone following trauma to the craniofacial complex. Clinical diagnosis is mostly straightforward, complementary diagnostic imaging is, however, essential for confirmation, classification, treatment plan, and medicolegal reasons. Various modalities of imaging are available each with its advantages and disadvantages.

Objectives:
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound scan (USS) in the diagnosis of mandibular fractures.

Materials and Methods:
Fifty patients with clinical and radiological diagnoses of fracture in tooth-bearing region of the mandible were recruited. Ultrasound scanning of the fractured site(s) was performed for each patient. A sensitivity test was performed using 2 × 2 contingency table.

Results:
Fifty patients with 59 fracture sites were evaluated and USS showed 100% sensitivity in locating fracture lines in all the patients including displaced fractures. Incidentally, the facial artery crossing the inferior border of the mandible is recognized as the fixed landmark for fracture that is closer to it.

Conclusions:
USS has 100% sensitivity in diagnosing mandibular fracture in tooth-bearing regions. It is therefore suitable for bedside evaluation patients and pregnant women. Further studies may be needed to evaluate nontooth-bearing mandibular regions.

Published: January 2025

This study investigated the designing of a simple and rapid flow injection (FI) system and the determination of Isoniazid in a prepared aqueous solution. The principle of the method depended on the indirect reaction of the isoniazid drug with copper(II)-neocuproine (Cu(II)-NCPR) complex after acidifying the aqueous medium. The yellow-orange and charge transfer complex had maximum absorption at 455 nm. The optimum conditions of the FIA were studied. The calibration graph of isoniazid was constructed with a linear range of 0.10 to 10.00 mg/L, and a linearity (r2) value of 0.9988. The detection and quantification limits were 0.073 and 0.221 mg/L, respectively. The molar absorptivity (ε) was 56.68×104 L/mol.cm and Sandell's sensitivity was 0.84 ×10-3 µg/cm. The manufactured local valve was characterized by inexpensive, easily running, high repeatability (n = 6) at an RSD of 2.18%, and the dead volume was zero. The dispersion coefficient values were 1.91, and 1.53 for both concentrations of 0.60, and 4.00 mg/L, respectively. The sampling rate of the analysis for the FIA system was 63.00 samples per hour. The proposed analytical flow injection method was successfully applied to standard aqueous solutions and tablets of isoniazid.

Man-made activities such as urbanization and expansion of agricultural activities are increasingly changing our landscapes. An evaluation of the effects of land use on soil standards is critical for the sustainable management of human health and its surroundings. This study examines the impact of land use types on the abundance and distribution of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil as affected by three different land environments; Petrol Stations (NNPC), FarmLand, and Auto–Mechanic Villages. A focus on the concentrations and spatial distribution of PAHs in soil samples collected from each land-use type in Sagamu Township and its surroundings, was subject to a generalized assessment while identifying important contaminating factors in the soil. Soil analysis confirmed that Auto-Mechanic Village constitutes the highest contributor of PAH and increased concentrations are detected from this land-use type. Significantly, the Petrol Station (NNPC) also showed a high PAH distribution but was lower than the Auto mechanic village. The levels of PAHs (∑7PAHs) obtained in NNPC, Mechanic Village, and FarmLand are 0.054 mg/kg 0.073 mg/kg, and 0.0328 mg/kg respectively. The highest values of PAHs concentration were returned from Mechanic Village soil samples and the lowest value was obtained from the FarmLand samples. This trend of PAH prevalence was consistent with the number of rings inside the structure, apparent at each sampling site and across the whole study area. The Σ5- 6 ring PAHs dominate at a concentration of 0.0481 mg/kg (50% of total PAHs). Σ2–3ring PAHs show 0.0257 mg/kg, percent abundance 27%. In contrast, there are scarce occurrences of Σ4 ring PAHs, of which the lowest values reach up to 0.0223 mg/kg (23%). The findings highlight the relevance of accounting for co-exposure to different land-use-type when assessing the risk of soil contamination for human health and offer useful insights to policymakers, environmental regulators, and land-use planners.
A Study on the Relationship between Education Level and Criminality in Sri Lanka (With Special Reference to Prison Statistics of Sri Lanka 2019-2023)
Authors: I.G.N. Prabhashini 
Published: February 2025

Over the years, researchers across various parts of the world have actively engaged themselves in a lot of academic literature regarding education and delinquency correlation as education has been a principal factor portraying an individual's life path. Education significantly contributes to the formation of attitudes, the enhancement of socio-economic conditions, and the improvement of decision-making capabilities. Additionally, poverty of educational opportunities or low attainment of education generally characterizes countries with high levels of delinquency and crime. Based on the fact, prison data from 2019 to 2023 was used to explain whether criminal activities and educational attainment are related or not in Sri Lanka. The paper also tries to explain if educational attainment and type, frequency, or seriousness of criminal behavior among prisoners correlate significantly. The research problem is what is the distribution of educational levels among prisoners in Sri Lanka between 2019 and 2023? The research objectives are to find the relationship between education level and crime, whether low education level individuals are more likely to engage in criminal activities, and to examine the educational backgrounds of those who were detained in Sri Lanka between 2019 and 2023. The research has been designed based on secondary data. For many years, high rates of crimes have been committed by those who have passed grade 8 and GCE ordinary levels. There are low crime rates among those with higher education levels. For that situation, it has so many reasons, such as biological, sociological, and psychological. The results show a strong relationship between low levels of education and increased criminal activity, with a considerable concentration of criminals having little or no formal education. This research has a few limitations, as it is mainly desk research. Also, it has used statistical data for five years to analyze. The research concludes that the government should establish quality education, and it must help to find good jobs for school leavers. Then it may help to reduce the crime rate in Sri Lanka. Similarly, if the functions of institutions such as family, education, religion, politics, and the economy are fulfilled properly in society, there is a possibility of minimizing the incidence of crime in a country. This study emphasizes how crucial it is to address educational disparities as part of a larger initiative to lower crime and enhance social cohesion in Sri Lanka.
Proyecto Ambiental – Transversal e Innovador, desde el ABP
Authors: Hernández Laura Edith 
Published: February 2025

Los estudiantes que participan de este proyecto viven en una zona donde el arsénico (As) forma parte de su vida cotidiana. Sabiendo que el arsénico es un compuesto químico potencialmente venenoso para el ser humano, mayormente encontrado en agua de napas subterráneas, de las cuales consumen millones de personas en todo el mundo, los estudiantes realizaron una investigación que tenía como objetivo identificar un material útil para la eliminación de este tipo de elementos tóxicos. A través del método de retención del arsénico en muestras de agua recolectadas, y utilizando hidroxiapatita (HAp) obtenida a partir de cáscaras de huevo de gallina sometidas a tratamiento térmico a elevadas temperaturas, observaron una reducción en la concentración de arsénico. De este modo, se dio uso a un residuo común –antes de que se convierta en basura– aprovechando su potencial de adsorción física. Con esta investigación, los estudiantes pudieron estudiar la transferencia de masa del As presente en el agua al material obtenido, que corresponde a uno de los contenidos de nuestro diseño curricular.
El proceso del desarrollo de esta propuesta mantuvo a los estudiantes motivados, cada uno desde sus intereses y potencialidades. La planeación fue conjunta, dado que este proyecto fue abordado desde diferentes áreas: exactas, científicas, comunicativas, tecnológicas, específico-agrarias y el arte, de modo transversal. Cada docente tuvo una participación activa desde la observación y orientación, brindando las herramientas necesarias y solicitadas por los estudiantes para alcanzar los objetivos y resultados propuestos.

AVALIAÇÃO DA APRENDIZAGEM: ATUALIZAR METODOLOGIA E FINALIDADE PARA SER NÃO SER REPROVADA
Authors: Costa Francisco Klebio e , Coutinho Diógenes José Gusmão 
Published: January 2025

Avaliar aprendizagens sempre foi uma das muitas atribuições da escola, uma vez que o conhecimento construído por crianças carece da mediação docente visando validar o que se obteve no percurso. Este artigo levanta a discussão da seguinte questão: O que deve ser avaliado ao final de um percurso letivo? Para dar cabo às essas questões foi fundamental transitar entre várias conceituações e tipos de avaliações, valendo-se de uma metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica, na consulta de artigos, teses e dissertações,e também via empírica. A pesquisa nos conduziu aos seguintes teóricos, a saber: PERRENOUD (1999), BARLOW (2006), HOFFMANN (2001,2011), LUCKESI (2018), LIBÂNEO (1994). As leituras foram imprescindíveis não somente na realização do trabalho, mas também de uma compreensão ampliada do tema. Ficou claro que avaliar aprendizagens e desenvolvimento de crianças e adolescentes, assimilação de conteúdos, progressos nas relações interpessoais, oralidade, leitura e escrita ainda é um desafio da escola brasileira; falta situar a avaliação num patamar de relevância e não apenas de método. Concluiu-se que há uma resistência a alargar horizontes sobre o que importa ser avaliado. Avaliar-(se) para colaborar com outras disciplinas na alavancagem dos processos que são gerados em uma escola, e não para ser óbice ao desenvolvimento de pessoas e estruturas.

Published: January 2025

Two pyridinium-based new cationic surfactants have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-methylpyridine and 3-methylpyridine with an alkyl halide (1-bromoctadecane) using dry toluene as a solvent to get the compounds, N-(n-octadecyl)-2-methylpyridinium bromide (A1) and N-(n-octadecyl)-3-methylpyridinium bromide (A2), respectively. The synthesized samples were characterized by using various spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized compounds showed a critical micelle concentration in a very low-value range (0.111 mM to 0.125 mM), proving the synthesized compounds' best surface-acting ability. Both compounds exhibited limited antibacterial activity across various bacterial strains, with inhibition zones ranging from 3 to 7 mm. The change in Gibb’s free energy (ΔG) was also calculated from their binding constant (Kb) for samples A1 (-10.0 kJ/mol) and A2 (-19.37 kJ/mol). The samples demonstrated spontaneous interactions with the drug molecules, which proved the efficient bioavailability of the drug due to the best incorporation of drug molecules with the aggregated monomers of surfactant molecules.
Urban Metaphors Depicted Through the Scenographic Architecture of the TV Series Smallville
Authors: Fontes Millena , Ribeiro Cabral Vieira Larissa 
Published: February 2025

Amid the ongoing discussions on Urbanism and experiences in contemporary cities, this essay explores the influence of the urban scenery on the profile and behavior of the residents through a playful analysis of the TV series Smallville (2001-2011). The narrative follows Clark Kent who grows up in a small rural town and evolves into the hero, Superman. Smallville with its anti-urban values contrasts with Metropolis, a fictional version of New York City, reflecting different urban dynamics. The series’ filmic scenography illustrates metaphors of the city/individual relationship, showing how the urban environment shapes human behavior and contributes to psychosocial well-being. Furthermore, this study conducts a literature review based on theories such as Semiotics, Gestalt, and Neuroarchitecture, examining how scenography in audiovisual productions like the series Gotham (2014-2019)and the film Joker (2019) reflects real cities and influences the thoughts and personalities of the characters. These works highlight the power of urban structure in shaping individual identity and behavior. Ultimately, the essaycontributes to understanding urban dynamics and their influence on individuals, emphasizing the importance of scenography and the environment that was built while constructing narratives and shaping behaviors.
