Les pérégrinations de Gustav von Aschenbach : le problème de l’artiste moderne et de son inscription dans le réseau dédaléen de la culture germanique
Authors: Wrangel Diane de 
Published: January 2023

Écrite en 1911 et publiée l’année suivante, la nouvelle de Thomas Mann Der Tod in Venedig (La Mort à Venise) dépeint le destin tragique d'un écrivain au faîte de sa gloire qui, à la suite d’une crise d’inspiration et par désir de vivre de nouvelles aventures, entreprend un voyage dans la cité lacustre. Gustav von Aschenbach, le protagoniste principal de ce récit, et par extension Thomas Mann lui-même, se trouvent placés tous deux au cœur d'un réseau à la fois littéraire et musical. Aschenbach représente aux yeux de Mann l'artiste germanique fin de siècle par excellence : l'auteur allemand s'est inspiré de modèles tels que Goethe et Wagner pour construire son personnage. Inscrit à la fois dans la carte (Munich puis les déambulations dans Venise) et la frise (en cristallisant en lui certaines caractéristiques propres aux grands mouvements intellectuels et artistiques allemands : chronologiquement entre classicisme et romantisme), ce personnage représente les différents questionnements lancés par son auteur à propos de la culture et de la société allemande et européenne du tournant du XXe siècle.

Authors: Radhakrishnan Priya Jyothishmathy , Raghunath Sreelakshmi Pallipurath , Mohan Devi , Rajan Reeja , Iype Thomas 
Published: January 2023

Background:
Many neuropsychological tests are primarily developed in high-income countries, and normative data are not readily available for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We need culturally appropriate cognitive screening tests for India.

Objective:
Hence, we decided to translate the Hindi cognitive screening test battery (HCSTB) tool to Malayalam and establish the age and education-stratified norms for a Malayalam cognitive screening test battery (MCSTB).

Material and Methods:
HCSTB was translated to Malayalam, back-translated by bilinguals conversant in Malayalam and English, and pretested on 30 older normal adults. Using a multistage sampling technique, we conducted a descriptive cross-sectional survey in the Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala, India. We approached older adults aged ≥60 years for informed and written consent. We excluded subjects with depression, functional impairment, cognitive impairment, history of stroke, psychosis, and visual/hearing loss that impaired cognitive assessment.

Results:
The normative data were derived from 441 older adults: 226 (51%) from rural areas and 215 (49%) from urban areas. Age and education affected the cognitive scores. The time to administer MCSTB among normal adults was approximately 17 minutes.

Discussion and Conclusion:
The derived normative data showed lower values than the published literature. A limitation of our study was the small number of older people with ≥12 years of education and the lack of neuroimaging of the subjects.

Published: January 2023

Introduction:
Anal dilation with Hegar dilator is recommended as part of the post-operative management following surgical correction of anorectal malformation (ARM) in children to prevent strictures. Parents usually continue dilation at home with a personal set of dilators. However, in low-resource settings, many parents cannot afford the Hegar dilator. Devices that have been improvised as dilators include appropriately sized candles, spigot from Foley catheter, rounded ball pen ends and mothers’ fingers. We aimed to report our preliminary experience with the use of candle as an improvised anal dilator following surgeries for ARM in our practice.

Materials and Methods:
A review of records of children who had surgery for ARMs and commenced on candle dilation between February 2018 and July 2019 at our centre was done. Relevant demographic information, type of anomaly, duration of dilation, availability of health insurance coverage, complications and parents’ acceptance of improvised dilator (evaluated during scheduled follow up visits) were retrieved. The data were analysed using SPPSS version 21 (Chicago, Illinois).

Results:
Nineteen patients underwent anal dilation with improvised candles during the period. Rectobulbar and rectovestibular fistulas were most frequent anomaly in boys and girls, respectively. The median age at surgery was 6 months. The median duration of dilation (completed in 9 patients) was 7 months. Candle dilation was well tolerated, and all parents were comfortable using the device.

Conclusion:
The candle as an improvised anal dilator following anorectal surgeries in children is a useful alternative to the conventional dilator. It is more affordable and gives satisfactory results.

Published: January 2023

Abstract

Purpose:
Globally, breast cancer is the leading malignancy in females. Indeed, Asian cohorts show prevalence of breast cancer among women with ages below 40 years. Moreover, these younger cases are globally characterized by poorer prognostic features as well as survival outcomes, than older sufferers with ages above 40 years. Despite this, comparative analyses between older and younger cohorts are sparse from India, where data from the country’s eastern part falls shortest. This study attempted a comprehensive analysis of breast cancer between these two cohorts representing the Eastern Indian subcontinent.

Methods:
Documenting retrospective case-files registered between 2010 and 2015, 394 cases of younger (<40 years) and 1250 older (≥40 years) sufferers of primary breast cancer were noted. The relevant features and follow-up information were also retrieved. Kaplan–Meier analyses were performed to evaluate the survival outcome.

Results:
The data, in general, revealed a high percentage of younger sufferers from Eastern Indian regions. Moreover, this younger cohort showed poor survival. Among the younger cohort, cases with poor pathological features (triple negative, node-positive, grade III) were proportionately higher than the older cohort. Indeed, survival among these categories scored significantly low, compared to the older cohort.

Conclusion:
This Eastern Indian subcontinental data matched the analyses from other parts of India as well as Asian data and clearly showed the prevalence of younger sufferers of breast cancer with poor clinico-pathological features and survival outcomes.

Impact:
Analyzing age-based features and outcomes from Eastern India, this study provides data in supplementing Indian and Asian scenarios of breast cancer.

Published: January 2023

ABSTRACT

Aim:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of small bowel wall edema (SBWE) on computed tomography (CT) images in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) treated with sunitinib and to investigate the relationship between the presence of SBWE and survival.

Materials and Methods:
We retrospectively evaluated the presence of SBWE on CT images of 27 mRCC patients who received at least one cycle of sunitinib. Then, we analyzed the relationship between the presence of SBWE and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

Results:
All 27 patients had SBWE on at least one CT scan. The median value of SBWE thickness was 2.5 mm. SBWE thickness was ≤2.5 mm in 13 patients (group A) and >2.5 mm in 14 patients (group B). The median OS was significantly higher in group B (55 vs. 18 months, respectively, P = 0.02). Although it was not statistically significant (13 vs. 8 months, respectively, P = 0.69), the median PFS was longer in group B than in group A.

Conclusions:
This study showed that sunitinib treatment caused SBWE in all patients with mRCC who received the drug. Also, this study demonstrated an association between higher SBWE thickness and better survival outcomes.

Nexus of total factor productivity, inequality, and taxes (selected SAARC Countries) along with other control variables like corruption, consumption expenditure, capital, and labor. For short and long-run elasticities along with different estimation techniques are applied. Total factor Productivity (TFP) data of SAARC countries were unavailable, so only Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka are estimated. Tax to GDP ratio is low, and income equality is negative as it will decrease the tax revenue, and increase in anti-corruption policies will increase tax revenue, an increase in TFP will reduce in tax revenue, increase in employment, there will be an increase in tax to GDP ratio and consumption expenditure is found negative and significant on tax The results confirm that most of the variables of the long-run elasticities are significant. All the models are robust because there is no slope heterogeneity, heteroscedasticity, multicollinearity, and cross-section dependence among the variables.
Politik Gerilim Sineması’ndan Bir Portre: ‘Z’ Filmi Bağlamında Bir Costa Gavras Analizi
Authors: ATAYMAN İpek Elif 
Published: January 2023

Politika, toplumsal ilişkilerde önemli bir dağıtım mekanizmasıdır. Ancak tek başına, soyut bir olgu da değildir. Yöneten-yönetilen unsurlarının yanı sıra bu iki unsura etki eden faktör ve aktörlerin de sürece dahil olduğu gözlemlenmektedir. Bu temel karakterlerle ortaya konulan politik iletişim faaliyeti son yarım asırda çok çeşitli kaynaklarla yürütülmektedir. Söz konusu iletişim faaliyeti, politik sinema ile de yüzünü göstermektedir. Nasıl ki politika tüm yaşamları yakından etkileme kapasitesini bünyesinde barındırmaktadır; sinema da benzer şekilde aslında gündelik hayatın temel bir parçasıdır. Bu yüzden iki temel insan faaliyeti kimi zaman kolkola da yürümektedir.
Politik iletişim ve sinema ilişkisi içinde bir alt tür olarak politik gerilim de kendisine önemli bir yer bulmaktadır. Bu alt türün önemli temsilcilerinden birisi Constantinos (Costa) Gavras’tır. Gavras, çeşitli politik gerilim filmleriyle, yöneten-yönetilen ilişkisinde söylenilmeyi söylemeyi, eleştirilemeyeni eleştirmeyi uhdesine almış bir senarist ve yönetmen olmuştur. Bu makalede Gavras, 1969 yılında yönettiği ‘Z’ filmi örneğinde derinlemesine incelenmektedir. Gavras sineması, ‘Z’ filmi de olmak üzere tipik ürünlerinde, popüler kitle kültürünün algılarını dikkate alarak, bu seyirci algısının temel niteliklerini yok saymadan politik kaygılar dahilinde mesajını sinemalaştırmaya çalışmıştır.
