Pour une analyse relationnelle de la conversion religieuse
Authors: Bouguerra Ines 
Published: July 2023

La conversion religieuse est un objet de recherche complexe qui a suscité l’intérêt de plusieurs disciplines. Les connaissances monodisciplinaires qui en ont résulté ont occulté sa réalité complexe. Elles ont en outre conféré ou confirmé un pouvoir d’élucidation à des catégories issues des approches holistique ou individualiste (pouvoir, reproduction, intention, rationalité, par exemple). L’approche interactionniste a contribué aussi à la compréhension de la conversion religieuse. Elle a, en revanche, réduit la temporalité à une linéarité qui laisse conjecturer qu’une éventuelle conversion religieuse pourrait se produire ponctuellement, dans un cadre « avant-après ». L’objectif de cette contribution est de sortir de ces sentiers battus, en observant le rapport de la psyché à la religion par l’entremise de la théorie relationnelle.

Published: July 2023

Se analiza la gobernanza de los procesos de desarrollo territorial, argumentando cómo la economía social, a través del cooperativismo, se puede constituir como fórmula para una gestión eficaz de estos procesos. Para ello, en primer lugar, a partir de un análisis bibliográfico, se extraen las principales variables que caracterizan la gobernanza territorial. Posteriormente, se analizan las relaciones sinérgicas que se establecen entre el cooperativismo y el desarrollo territorial, así como los aportes de la economía social para hacer frente a la complejidad de los procesos de gobernanza territorial. Por último, se analiza el caso del municipio de Bonares (Andalucía, España), el cual promociona su desarrollo participando en una cooperativa de segundo grado. Se concluye cómo las variables que, según la bibliografía consultada, inciden en procesos exitosos de gobernanza territorial, se ponen de manifiesto en la gobernanza de este municipio a través de un modelo cooperativista.

Published: July 2023

Las repercusiones económicas de la crisis originada por la pandemia del COVID-19 sobre el tejido económico han sido muy importantes, y todavía cabe esperar que una buena parte de ellas mantenga su incidencia durante un tiempo. Si bien los efectos hasta el momento han sido parcialmente mitigados a través de políticas contracíclicas -especialmente líneas de ayuda directa y subvenciones-, los efectos negativos se han extendido por todo el tejido productivo. La Economía Social no ha sido ajena a esta realidad y se ha visto también perjudicada, aunque al mismo tiempo, ha demostrado una significativa capacidad de resistencia, en línea con lo constatado en crisis precedentes. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar y valorar las distintas acciones que se pueden desarrollar con relación a la Economía Social para favorecer una pronta recuperación económica, tanto a nivel general, como en el caso particular de la Comunidad Autónoma de Galicia.

Published: July 2023

The analysis of stream flow trends of hydro-climatic variables such as stream flow, rainfall, and temperature provides useful information for effective water resource planning, design, and management. Trends in observed stream flow at seven gauging stations in the Ramganga river basin of North India were examined from 1981 to 2012 using the Mann-Kendall and Sen's slope. Lag 1 autocorrelation analyses were used to investigate the relationships between trends in stream flow and rainfall. Annual, monsoonal, and winter seasonal stream flow (p0.05) decreased gradually from upstream to downstream of the river, as did crop seasonal and decadal moving averaged standardized anomalies of streamflow for the entire basin. The streamflow's declining trend was partly attributed to higher water withdrawal, higher air temperature, and higher population, and partly to a significantly declining post-monsoon rainfall trend, particularly upstream and downstream. The changing monsoon rainfall pattern and the growing population both contributed significantly to the development of this trend. The significant decreasing trend in stream flow at the upstream gauging station (-0.39 m3/s/year) was attributed to the significant decreasing trend in catchment rainfall (-8.40 mm/year). This study shows a strong positive correlation between stream flow and catchment rainfall (r=0.60). The Ramganga River basin is showing signs of drying up, as evidenced by the declining stream flow, post-monsoon rainfall, especially in the downstream area, and concurrently rising temperature trends. The Ramganga River basin's sustainable water management planning will be aided and made possible by the study's findings and recommendations, which will help stakeholders design strategies for stream flow restoration. This study thus highlights the urgent need for comprehensive water management planning in this basin by implementing procedures at various spatial scales that may be able to halt the trend of drying by improving river water use efficiency in a variety of sectors.

ImportanceLiquid biopsy has emerged as a complement to tumor tissue profiling for advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The optimal way to integrate liquid biopsy into the diagnostic algorithm for patients with newly diagnosed advanced NSCLC remains unclear.ObjectiveTo evaluate the use of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) genotyping before tissue diagnosis among patients with suspected advanced NSCLC and its association with time to treatment.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis single-group nonrandomized clinical trial was conducted among 150 patients at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre–University Health Network (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) between July 1, 2021, and November 30, 2022. Patients referred for investigation and diagnosis of lung cancer were eligible if they had radiologic evidence of advanced lung cancer prior to a tissue diagnosis.InterventionsPatients underwent plasma ctDNA testing with a next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay before lung cancer diagnosis. Diagnostic biopsy and tissue NGS were performed per standard of care.Main Outcome and MeasuresThe primary end point was time from referral to treatment initiation among patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC using ctDNA testing before diagnosis (ACCELERATE [Accelerating Lung Cancer Diagnosis Through Liquid Biopsy] cohort). This cohort was compared with a reference cohort using standard tissue genotyping after tissue diagnosis.ResultsOf the 150 patients (median age at diagnosis, 68 years [range, 33-91 years]; 80 men [53%]) enrolled, 90 (60%) had advanced nonsquamous NSCLC. The median time to treatment was 39 days (IQR, 27-52 days) for the ACCELERATE cohort vs 62 days (IQR, 44-82 days) for the reference cohort (P &amp;lt; .001). Among the ACCELERATE cohort, the median turnaround time from sample collection to genotyping results was 7 days (IQR, 6-9 days) for plasma and 23 days (IQR, 18-28 days) for tissue NGS (P &amp;lt; .001). Of the 90 patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC, 21 (23%) started targeted therapy before tissue NGS results were available, and 11 (12%) had actionable alterations identified only through plasma testing.Conclusions and RelevanceThis nonrandomized clinical trial found that the use of plasma ctDNA genotyping before tissue diagnosis among patients with suspected advanced NSCLC was associated with accelerated time to treatment compared with a reference cohort undergoing standard tissue testing.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04863924

IMPORTANCEPlant-based diets are known to improve cardiometabolic risk in the general population, but their effects on people at high risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain inconclusive.OBJECTIVETo assess the association of vegetarian diets with major cardiometabolic risk factors, including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and body weight in people with or at high risk of CVDs.DATA SOURCESThis meta-analysis was registered before the study was conducted. Systematic searches performed included Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and CENTRAL from inception until July 31, 2021.STUDY SELECTIONEligible randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that delivered vegetarian diets in adults with or at high risk of CVDs and measured LDL-C, HbA1c or SBP were included. Of the 7871 records screened, 29 (0.4%; 20 studies) met inclusion criteria.DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESISTwo reviewers independently extracted data including demographics, study design, sample size, and diet description, and performed risk of bias assessment. A random-effects model was used to assess mean changes in LDL-C, HbA1c, SBP, and body weight. The overall certainty of evidence was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) tool.MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURESMean differences between groups in changes (preintervention vs postintervention) of LDL-C, HbA1c, and SBP; secondary outcomes were changes in body weight and energy intake.RESULTSTwenty RCTs involving 1878 participants (range of mean age, 28-64 years) were included, and mean duration of intervention was 25.4 weeks (range, 2 to 24 months). Four studies targeted people with CVDs, 7 focused on diabetes, and 9 included people with at least 2 CVD risk factors. Overall, relative to all comparison diets, meta-analyses showed that consuming vegetarian diets for an average of 6 months was associated with decreased LDL-C, HbA1c, and body weight by 6.6 mg/dL (95% CI, −10.1 to −3.1), 0.24% (95% CI, −0.40 to −0.07), and 3.4 kg (95% CI, −4.9 to −2.0), respectively, but the association with SBP was not significant (−0.1 mm Hg; 95% CI, −2.8 to 2.6). The GRADE assessment showed a moderate level of evidence for LDL-C and HbA1c reduction.CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCEIn this study, consuming a vegetarian diet was associated with significant improvements in LDL-C, HbA1c and body weight beyond standard therapy in individuals at high risk of CVDs. Additional high-quality trials are warranted to further elucidate the effects of healthy plant-based diets in people with CVDs.

AbstractTreating and imaging patients in the upright orientation is gaining acceptance in radiation oncology and radiology and has distinct advantages over the recumbent position. An IRB approved study to investigate the positions and orientations of the male pelvic organs between the supine and upright positions was conducted. The study comprised of scanning 15 male volunteers (aged 55–75 years) on a 0.6 T Fonar MRI scanner in the supine and upright positions with a full bladder and in the upright position with an empty bladder.The Pelvic study revealed that in the upright position the1. Position and shape of the prostate are not impacted significantly by bladder fill.2. Distance between the sacrum and the anterior bladder wall is significantly smaller.3. Anterior‐Posterior length and the bladder width is significantly larger.4. Seminal vesicles are pushed down by the bladder.5. Top of the penile bulb is further away from the apex of the prostate.These observed differences could positively impact upright prostate treatments by1. Reducing the risk of small bowel approximating the treatment volume.2. Prostate treatments can be done with a reduced focus on bladder fill.3. Radiation beams for treating intermediate risk prostrate can be made smaller or a larger portion of the seminal vesicles can be treated with the same beam size than typically used for supine treatments.4. Reducing the average dose to the penile bulb.

AbstractEfforts to tailor instruction to match students' purported learning style continue to be used in higher education despite evidence challenging their value. Students were matched and mismatched to their self‐reported online learning preference to investigate the impact on academic outcomes. A total of 114 graduate health students were randomly assigned to an online lecture either matching or mismatching their previously reported preference (synchronous or asynchronous lecture participation). All students took the same multiple‐choice examination following the lecture. Independent t‐test analysis revealed no significant differences between students who were matched and mismatched to their participation preference. Asynchronous groups achieved significantly higher scores than synchronous groups. Analysis via two‐way ANOVA revealed no significant interaction between method of participation and compatibility with learning preference on examination scores. Based on the results of this study, method of participation impacted examination performance; however, matching or mismatching to students' stated learning preference did not impact performance.

ObjectiveThe Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society Health Index (ASAS HI) is a validated patient‐reported outcome (PRO) for global functioning of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). The Epionics SPINE (ES) is an electronic device for assessment of axial mobility that provides an objective measure of spinal mobility by assessing range of motion (RoM) and range of kinematics (RoK). The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between global functioning and clinical measures of disease activity, physical function, spinal mobility, and radiographic damage.MethodsIn a cross‐sectional study design, consecutive patients with radiographic and nonradiographic axSpA were included, and the following established tools were assessed: Bath ankylosing spondylitis (AS) disease activity index (BASDAI), Bath AS functional index (BASFI), Bath AS metrology index (BASMI), ASAS HI, and RoM and RoK using ES. Structural damage of spine and sacroiliac joints (SIJ) were assessed by counting the number of syndesmophytes and by New York grading of sacroiliitis. Kendall's tau correlation coefficients were calculated.ResultsIn 103 patients with axSpA, ASAS HI scores correlated significantly with PRO scores (BASDAI, r = 0.36; BASFI, r = 0.48; and back pain, r = 0.41; all P < 0.001). In contrast, no significant correlation between ASAS HI and RoM and RoK (r between −0.08 and 0.09) and radiographic damage in SIJ and spine (all r between 0.03 and 0.004) were seen, respectively. BASMI scores correlated weakly (r = 0.14; P = 0.05).ConclusionThis study shows that axSpA disease‐specific PROs have an impact on global functioning, whereas spinal mobility scores, even if objectively assessed by the ES, have limited impact on patient reported–global functioning. The results also suggest that global functioning is, in this cohort, not much dependent on the degree of structural damage in the axial skeleton.
