Authors: Kim Dongil , Woo Yeyoung , Song Jusuk , Son Subin 
Published: May 2023

ObjectiveRapid changes in post-COVID-19 higher education have increased students’ academic stress. This study focused on graduate students’ academic stress in South Korea and compared the results for Korean graduate students and those for international graduate students.MethodUsing the online survey results, the study verified the relationships between faculty interactions, a sense of belonging, and academic stress among Korean and international graduate students using a mediating effects analysis and a multigroup path analysis.ResultsThe results were as follows. First, Korean students experienced greater academic stress, faculty interactions, and a sense of belonging, but no statistically significant difference was observed. Second, a sense of belonging had a mediating effect on the relationship between faculty interactions and academic stress. Unlike in previous studies, all paths were found to be statistically significant. Faculty interactions had a negative effect on academic stress and a positive effect on a sense of belonging. A sense of belonging had a negative effect on academic stress. Third, the comparison of Korean and international graduate students showed that international students had a greater effect of faculty interactions on academic stress.ConclusionThrough these results, we explored the post-COVID-19 academic lives of Korean and international graduate students in South Korea and built grounds for effective interventions for alleviating academic stress.

ObjectivePelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is highly prevalent among women. Pelvic floor ultrasound (PFU) is a critical method for assessing PFD. This study examined the knowledge, attitudes, and practice (KAP) of women of childbearing age regarding PFD and PFU.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted between August 18, 2022, and September 20, 2022, in Sichuan, China. A total of 504 women of childbearing age participated in this study. A self-administered questionnaire was developed to assess KAP regarding PFD and PFU. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the association between demographic characteristics and KAP.ResultsThe average scores for knowledge, attitudes, and practice were 12.53, 39.98, and 16.51 out of 17, 45, and 20, respectively. Despite adequate knowledge of PFD symptoms, aging-related risks, and PFD harms (correct rates &gt; 80%), participants showed poor knowledge about the benefits of PFU, PFU types, and Kegel exercise (correct rates &lt; 70%). High scores in knowledge and attitude (odds ratio = 1.23 and 1.11, P &lt; 0.001 and P = 0.005, respectively) were independent predictors of good practice, while never having been pregnant (odds ratio = 0.10, P &lt; 0.001), alcohol consumption (odds ratio = 0.09, P = 0.027), and not being diagnosed with PFD or an unclear diagnosis independently predicted poor practice (both odds ratio = 0.03, both P &lt; 0.001).ConclusionWomen of childbearing age in Sichuan, China, showed moderate knowledge, positive attitude, and good practice regarding PFD and PFU. Knowledge, attitude, pregnancy history, alcohol consumption, and PFD diagnosis are associated with practice.

Objectives“No bed syndrome” has become a familiar phrase in Ghana. Yet, there is very little in medical texts or the peer reviewed literature about it. This review aimed to document what the phrase means in the Ghanaian context, how and why it occurs, and potential solutions.DesignA qualitative desk review using a thematic synthesis of grey and published literature, print and electronic media content covering the period January 2014 to February 2021. Text was coded line by line to identify themes and sub-themes related to the research questions. Analysis was manual and with Microsoft Excel to sort themes.SettingGhana.Participants and InterventionNot applicable.Results“No bed syndrome” describes the turning away by hospitals and clinics of people seeking walk in or referral emergency care with the stated reasons “no bed available” or “all beds are full”. There are reported cases of people dying while going round multiple hospitals seeking help and being repeatedly turned away because there is “no bed”. The situation appears to be most acute in the highly urbanized and densely populated Greater Accra region. It is driven by a complex of factors related to context, health system functions, values, and priorities. The solutions that have been tried are fragmented rather than well-coordinated whole system reform.Discussions and recommendationsThe “no bed syndrome” describes the challenge of a poorly functioning emergency health care system rather than just the absence of a bed on which to place an emergency case. Many low and middle income countries have similar challenges with their emergency health care systems and this analysis from Ghana is potentially valuable in attracting global attention and thinking about emergency health systems capacity and reform in low and middle income countries. The solution to the “no bed syndrome” in Ghana requires reform of Ghana's emergency healthcare system that takes a whole system and integrated approach. All the components of the health system such as human resource, information systems, financing, equipment tools and supplies, management and leadership need to be examined and addressed together alongside health system values such as accountability, equity or fairness in the formulation, implementation, continuous monitoring and evaluation of policies and programs for system reform to expand and strengthen emergency healthcare system capacity and responsiveness. Despite the temptation to fall back on them as low hanging fruit, piecemeal and ad-hoc solutions cannot solve the problem.

Published: May 2023

Pregnancy after kidney transplantation (KT) conveys risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO). Little is known about performance of pre-pregnancy counselling after KT. This study investigated perceptions of risk, attitudes towards pregnancy and factors influencing advice given at pre-pregnancy counselling after KT. A web-based vignette survey was conducted among nephrologists and gynaecologists between March 2020 and March 2021, consisting of five vignettes containing known risk factors for APO and general questions on pre-pregnancy counselling after KT. Per vignette, attitudes towards pregnancy and estimation of outcomes were examined. In total 52 nephrologists and 25 gynaecologists participated, 56% from university hospitals. One third had no experience with pregnancy after KT. All gave positive pregnancy advice in the vignette with ideal circumstances (V1), versus 83% in V2 (proteinuria), 81% in V3 (hypertension), 71% in V4 (eGFR 40 ml/min/1.73 m2). Only 2% was positive in V5 (worst-case scenario). Chance of preeclampsia was underestimated by 89% in V1. 63% and 98% overestimated risk for graft loss in V4 and V5. Professionals often incorrectly estimated risk of APO after KT. As experience with pregnancy after KT was limited among professionals, patients should be referred to specialised centres for multidisciplinary pre-pregnancy counselling to build experience and increase consistency in given advice.

Fragments d’un discours du pouvoir (1975-1985) : du bon usage d'une méconnaissance scientifique.
Authors: Geffray Christian 
Published: May 2023

About some good of scientific blindness.
The manner in which Mozambican society is being ideologically penetrated by State power reflects a certain primary ignorance — assumed politically — of social relations of the peoples over whom authority is exercised. Be it the disparities in rural social relation, the social expectations surrounding racial distinction, taking into consideration indigenous languages etc., all are issues around which a taboo has been created by the microcosm of FRELIMO cadres, be they white, mullato or internationalist experts.
Représentations culturelles africaines et gestion de l’environnement

Published: May 2023

African cultural representations and environment management.
The unavoidable link between the preservation of natural ressources and participatory development requires the aknowledgement of local know-how and of the representations men have of their relationship to natural environment.
The analysis of technical concepts used to act upon ecological processes shows how man is the actor of his environment as well as the one who adapts to it.
Human and social problems are part of the dynamics of nature which western technical conception hardly considers in the implementation of projects.
L’après-dévaluation : hypothèses et hypothèques
Authors: Conte Bernard 
Published: May 2023

Post devaluation : hypotheses and mortgages.
The recent CFA franc devaluation is a new external stroke for the African countries of the Franc Area (PAZF). Given the deplorable economical and social situation of most of them, this measure is often presented as an ultimate resort and seems to heavily condition the future. The possible PAZF futures fit into two opposite scenarii. The first pessimistic one makes room for a series of unfortunate chain of events leading up to increasing marginalization and pauperization and could also give rise to a growing lack of interest from the international community for the continent. The second alternative, more optimistic, sounds hopeful by conveying a revolution in the African elite behavior who would, from now on, work for the present and future well-being of the whole population.

Agro-exporters facing devaluation.
Devaluation is no panacea. To be competitive, it is crucial to reinvest an important part of its profits in productive investments which was lacking to the extensive and aging agriculture.
The sharing of added values between economical agents and the State is the crucial present stake and implies a new balance after 30 years of taxing producers. The changing of the game rules involves the construction of a consensus between the actors of the development necessary for the elaboration and viability of voluntarist sectorial policies.

La «chasse aux Zaïrois» à Luanda
Authors: Makebo Tali Jean-Marie 
Published: May 2023

Zairean chasing in luanda.
The Zaïrean hunt which took place in Luanda in January 1993 was in fact aiming at the Angolans belonging to the Bakongo ethnic group exiled from Zaïre where the toughness of colonization had driven them in great numbers. As a struggle against the people and the community goods as such, it marked a turning point in their relationship with power and gave rise to the revival and the radicalization of the Kikango identity claim. Back to the country at the time of independence, molded into a different urban culture, they were doubly rejected, on political and socio-cultural grounds, which was to become worse given the part they will take particularly in black economy.
Ce qu’attendent les Tananariviens de la réforme de l’État et de l’économie
Authors: Razafindrakoto Mireille , Roubaud François 
Published: May 2023

Malgré une dégradation du climat économique de Madagascar et du niveau de vie des populations, le processus démocratique n’est pas remis en cause. Une enquête d’opinion réalisée à Antananarivo révèle le besoin de plus de démocratie mais aussi de «mieux d’État» pour résoudre les problèmes de corruption. Il met aussi en évidence un besoin de plus d’État au moins au profit des plus démunis, la proportion des libéraux convaincus étant insignifiante.
Ainsi, la solution des problèmes malgaches est perçue non comme étant de la responsabilité des bailleurs de fonds ou des pays industrialisés mais comme devant venir de la société, en particulier des investissements dans l’agriculture et de la réforme de l’administration. Le rôle des média et de la communication est enfin souligné.
Démocratie en chansons : les bikut-si du Cameroun
Authors: Onguéné essono Louis martin 
Published: May 2023

Democracy in traditional floksong : the bikut-si in Cameroon.
Cameroon was long known for censorship. However this monolithic state, from 1960 to 1990, this African microcosm saw the improvement of the status of words in 1992. But the complete freedom proclaimed with multipartism failed sometimes as in spite of the law on associations some citizens were imprisoned. In 1990, the popular democracies, crystallized by fire and blood in some areas, were only new to the institutionally hierarchized chiefdoms. Whereas for the tribes which shared responsibility and were socially accepted, the words of democracy were another help for the people preoccupied with public order, collective well-being and equal share of common goods. Freedom as appears in songs and dances in the bikut-si, the traditional Betis’ folksong, is proof of the maturity reached.
Le nouveau système politique soudanais ou la démocratie en trompe-l’œil
Authors: Lavergne Marc 
Published: May 2023

The new sudanese political system; a democracy in «trompe-l'œil».
The «popular democracy» is at the very heart of Hassan el-Turabi’s islamic institutional project. The final objective is to give the people their autonomy back through extensive decentralisation, the creation of a federal state and the devolution of effective power to local government. But this programme actually means a progressive implementation of the Charia and a tighter control of the population. So far this pseudo western type pluralist democracy has not succeeded in finding the legitimacy it was looking for.
L’acte de vote en Afrique du Sud : remarques à partir des premières élections démocratiques d’avril 1994
Authors: Crouzel Ivan 
Published: May 2023

The act of voting in South Africa. comments from the first democratic elections in april 1994.
The first non-racial South African elections in April 1994 aimed to designate the first legitimate government in the history of this country and constituted, above all, an essential step in the process of the re-founding of the State. The vote therefore proved to be an intrinsic part of the democratic system in gestation, but it was also a technology to be learned. With this in mind, «voter education» programmes were set up, with a view to favouring the establishment of a democratic culture, by enhancing the spirit of tolerance, respect for others and their opinions. Despite the weight of the confrontational culture that was the legacy of apartheid, the vote has become a major, legitimate form of political participation.
De la galère à la guerre : jeunes et «Cobras» dans les quartiers Nord de Brazzaville
Authors: Ossebi Henri 
Published: May 2023

From delinquency to war : young people and «cobras» in the north districts of brazzaville.
Analyses that see only political instrumentalisation in militia violence are inadequate. On the one hand, because of the diversity of the identifiable forms of structured or «informal » juvenile violence, before, during and after the two civil wars in Brazzaville. On the other, because of the perpetuation of violence by these urban actors beyond the political motivations or issues that sparked the violence. Long after the military defeat of the Lissouba - Kolélas coalition in October 1997, the official dissolution of private militias has not caused young people to disarm, nor has it stopped the ex-«militiamen» spreading a «neo-culture» dramatising a «delinquent» lifestyle.
Questions of the Analyst to the Musical Text
Authors: Наумович С.Б. 
Published: May 2023

Статья посвящена вопросам, которые могут быть заданы при анализе музыкального текста как в индивидуальной исследовательской работе, так и в педагогической практике, будь то занятия со студентами по гармонии или анализу или домашнее задание, рассчитанное на самостоятельную работу учеников. Обращаясь к известным примерам из музыки Бетховена и Скрябина, автор раскрывает разные варианты вопросов — от прямых, нацеленных на ожидаемые ответы, до косвенных, сформулировать ответ на которые можно только пройдя по путям, поначалу кажущимся обходными. Особенно важно здесь то, что студенты получают информацию не в готовом виде от педагога, а добывают ее сами в процессе диалога с музыкой, для чего необходима известная независимость от суждений авторитетов. В заключение на примере одной из клавирных сонат Гайдна рассматривается случай, когда музыка ставит собственные вопросы перед анализирующим. В статье также развиты идеи А. И. Климовицкого и ведущего немецкого теоретика К. Кюна.
The article discusses questions of music ana­lysis which may be asked in individual research work as well as in pedagogical practice, whether it be lectures on harmony or analysis, or homework. Referring to well-known examples from the music of Beethoven and Scriabin, the author reveals different types of questions—from direct, aimed at the expected answers, to indirect, requiring an extraordinary approach to finding solutions. In such cases, it is appreciated that students do not receive information in finished form from the teacher but extract it themselves in the process of dialogue with music and with each other. The author emphasizes that such work requires not only analytical experience but also independence from the judgments of authorities. In conclusion, using the example of one of Haydn’s clavier sonatas, the case is considered when music poses its own questions to the analyzer. The article also develops the ideas of A. I. Klimovitsky and the leading German theorist C. Kühn.
