Regards croisés avec Alain Gras et Charles-François Mathis : approches systémiques en histoire de l’énergie
Authors: Marrec Anaël 
Published: June 2022

Cette interview croisée fait intervenir Alain Gras et Charles-François Mathis, deux chercheurs qui utilisent des approches systémiques en histoire de l’énergie. Avec des terrains et des regards disciplinaires distincts, les deux auteurs montrent la fécondité de ces approches pour saisir des spécificités contemporaines dans la mobilisation de l’énergie : celle de la société mondialisée où s’est développé le macro-système électrique, celle de l’Angleterre victorienne, où l’omniprésence du charbon, formant un véritable système charbonnier, ne connut ni précédent ni réplique. Les deux systèmes tendent à délocaliser la production et la consommation d’énergie, mais alors que le macro-système électrique procède à une invisibilisation des réalités matérielles et sociales des infrastructures énergétiques, pour la « civilisation du charbon », la matérialité de ce combustible est palpable dans de nombreux aspects du quotidien.
L’Umweltraum de Jakob von Uexküll. Le signe, l’espace, le temps et les philosophes
Authors: Campion Yannick 
Published: June 2022

Cet article propose une analyse épistémologique des concepts de Sujet, de Signe, d'Espace et de Temps tels que Jakob von Uexküll les utilise à la fin de son œuvre. En s'appuyant sur les premiers chapitres de Milieu animal et milieu humain (1934) et sur Théorie de la signification (1940), nous considérerons les enjeux philosophiques que ces notions soulèvent, en mettant en évidence : les sources classiques d'Uexküll (le Sujet chez Descartes et Kant) ; les influences de l'œuvre d'Uexküll sur la phénoménologie (le Temps chez Heidegger et Merleau-Ponty) ; les rapports indirects qu'entretiennent la pensée d'Uexküll et la tradition sémiotique (le Signe et l'Imagination chez Berkeley et Peirce).

Stratégies d’adaptation des communautés rurales à la précarité hydrique dans la commune urbaine de Téra, dans le Liptako Nigérien
Authors: Moussa Yayé 
Published: June 2022

Cet article identifie, analyse et évalue les différentes stratégies d’adaptation sociales développées par les communautés rurales de la commune urbaine de Téra, dans le Liptako nigérien, pour faire face à la précarité hydrique. Les contraintes hydrogéologiques, climatiques, démographiques et la faible dotation de villages en points d’eau modernes entrainent une situation de précarité hydrique à laquelle les communautés tentent d’apporter des réponses sociales. Elles mettent ainsi en place une diversité de stratégies (diversification des sources d'approvisionnement en eau, recours massif aux points d’eau traditionnels, mixité des usages, mutualisation des points d’eau, et cetera) ordonnancées dans une chronologie saisonnière permettant de créer une complémentarité d’une part entre des villages à situation hydraulique différente et d’autre part entre les points d’eau modernes, insuffisants en nombre, et les points traditionnels encore au centre du système d’approvisionnement en eau des communautés rurales. Mais en raison de la croissance démographique et des activités pastorales, les besoins en eau sont en constante augmentation. Dans un contexte de réchauffement climatique, la pression sur les ressources hydriques risque de s'accentuer et de remettre en cause les réponses sociales contribuant à l’accès universel à l’eau. Les tensions et les conflits sur l’accès à cette ressource risquent de se développer si des réponses politiques ne sont pas apportées, notamment en matière d’investissements dans les infrastructures hydrauliques en milieu rural. Les zones rurales semblent en effet demeurer une catégorie territoriale périphérique recevant peu de regards et d’actions publiques en matière d’amélioration des conditions de vie de populations et de cohésion territoriale.
Dynamiques contrastées de reverdissement et dégradation de la couverture végétale au Sénégal révélées par analyse de série temporelle du NDVI MODIS
Authors: Solly Boubacar , Andrieu Julien , Dieye El Hadji Balla , Jarju Aruna M 
Published: June 2022

Cette étude cherche à analyser les changements de la couverture végétale dans les écorégions du Sénégal durant ces deux dernières décennies (2000 à 2019) à l’aide d’une série temporelle d’images MODIS Normalized difference vegetation index (MODIS NDVI) de 16 jours et d’une résolution spatiale de 250 mètres. La méthode de l’étude est une combinaison de la télédétection et de la statistique. Le traitement des données a obéi à trois principales étapes : l’Analyse en composantes principales (ACP) sur la série temporelle 2000-2019 suivie de la classification non supervisée en utilisant le résultat de l’ACP ; le calcul du NDVI moyen des 23 périodes de 16 jours ; le calcul de la corrélation ou « tau » (τ) de Kendall associé au test de significativité de p≤0,1. Les résultats indiquent des modifications dans l’évolution du rythme phénologique des classes correspondant aux cultures de bas-fond, aux vallées inondables, à la mangrove, à la forêt dense, et à la savane arborée et boisée. Certaines modifications sont assimilables à une dégradation, et d’autre à un reverdissement. De même, il a été constaté un décalage temporel et une saison verte plus tardive. En effet, la corrélation de Kendall a indiqué une augmentation du NDVI entre 2000-2009 principalement dans les écorégions de l’est du pays, du sud-ouest et de la zone des estuaires avec une tendance significative. Durant la décennie 2010-2019, un ensemble de petites zones de progression a été noté. Par contre, les valeurs de corrélations négatives de NDVI, qui dénotent une diminution de l’activité végétative, s’observent principalement dans les écorégions du nord et du centre-ouest du pays avec une tendance toutefois non significative.

Published: June 2022

Introduction: Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is one of the main complications in patients with thalassemia in compensation for the underlying ineffective erythropoiesis. This study aimed to evaluate the association between ineffective erythropoiesis biomarkers and EMH in patients with thalassemia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study of thalassemia patients aged >18 years old at Srinagarind Hospital was performed. Phosphatidylserine-exposed red blood cells (PS-exposed RBCs) were studied by flow cytometry. The levels of growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF15) and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) levels were determined using ELISA.
Results: One hundred and thirty-one patients were enrolled. EMH was found in 34 patients (26.0%). EMH was more prevalent among patients with β-thalassemia as compared to those with α-thalassemia (36.4% vs. 4.7%). The levels of GDF15 and sTfR were different between the two groups and indicated a greater degree of ineffective erythropoiesis in β-thalassemia patients. The levels of PS-exposed RBCs showed a modest correlation with EMH. Advanced age and the PS-exposed RBC levels had a statistical significance associated with EMH.
Conclusions: Advanced age and high PS-exposed RBC levels are associated with EMH in thalassemia. PS-exposed RBCs showed a modest correlation with EMH and may be used to predict the development of EMH in thalassemia.

Published: June 2022

Background:
COVID-19 pandemic was started in December 2019. It has variable presentation from mild sore throat to severe respiratory distress. As we had seen there are no signs of it ending soon. Role of medical management in treatment is limited and so prevention of infection is the best mode to control the spread. It is important to identify people’s awareness about the infection.

Aims:
The aim of this study was to assess the awareness and their perception among people of kerala regarding outbreak, symptoms, preventive measures and treatment of covid-19.

Objective:
The primary objective was to evaluate the perception of the community in kerala on COVID-19 infection and its preventive measures. The secondary objective was to assess the factors affecting the awareness of COVID-19 among the community.

Materials and Methods:
An online survey was conducted from November 2020 to January 2021 among kerala community in relation to their perception towards Covid 19 infection and its preventive measures.

Results:
Total number of responses received were 610. Total 58.2% of the people agreed that the disease was contagious and spread by droplet, 84.1% of the people knew about asymptomatic carriers, 71.6% of the people believed that infection was curable while 18.5% were not sure about it. 6.1% thought that infection was incurable. Uni-variate analysis showed that neither gender, nor the socioeconomic or education status of the responder affected their level of knowledge about COVID-19.

Conclusion:
The study showed that the respondents had adequate awareness about COVID-19 outbreak and its preventive measures. People were aware of the virus, its common symptoms, prevention, lab tests and medical facilities. People understood the importance of preventive measures prescribed by the government like social distancing, hand washing, usage of face masks.
Alcohol consumption, aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 gene rs671 polymorphism, and psoriasis in Taiwan
Authors: Chang Ya-Ching , Hsu Lung-An , Huang Yu-Huei 
Published: June 2022

Background:
Although alcohol use has been determined as a predisposing factor for psoriasis, research findings have been inconsistent.

Objectives:
This study investigated whether alcohol intake is causally linked to psoriasis.

Methods:
The presence of rs671 polymorphism in the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) gene was investigated in 258 psoriasis patients and 605 healthy controls. The rs671 was employed as an instrumental variable for predicting alcohol use. Mendelian randomization (MR) was utilized to assess the causality between genetically determined alcohol consumption and psoriasis using the two-stage least-square (2SLS) approach. A replication study of MR analysis with inverse-variance weighting (IVW), MR-Egger regression, and weighted median methods was performed using openly accessible alcohol consumption and psoriasis summary statistics from the UK Biobank.

Results:
Between psoriasis and controls, there were no significant differences in genotype and allele frequencies for the ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism. The G allele of the rs671 was positively linked with alcohol intake. The ALDH2 rs671 genetically determined alcohol intake was not linked to the risk of psoriasis in the 2SLS analysis (β = −0.011, P = 0.960). The MR replication study also found no evidence of genetic propensity to greater alcohol consumption increasing the risk of psoriasis (β = −0.00065, P = 0.6002 in IVW; β = −0.00099, P = 0.6851 in MR-Egger; and β = −0.00181, P = 0.3558 in weighted median analysis).

Conclusion:
ALDH2 rs671 may not have a role in psoriasis susceptibility in Taiwanese. The MR analysis found no causality between alcohol consumption and psoriasis.

Authors: Kar Mitra , Dubey Akanksha , Patel Sangram Singh , Siddiqui Tasneem , Ghoshal Ujjala , Sahu Chinmoy 
Published: June 2022

Introduction:
Infections associated with catheter in the upper urinary tract (CUUT), which include the double-J stent and the percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) tube, get particularly infected in patients with specific risk factors for developing an infection.

Methods:
A retrospective observational study was carried out by compiling data from the hospital information system of a tertiary care center from 2019 to 2021 to evaluate infections in patients with catheter in the upper urinary tract.

Result:
A total of 200 pus samples of double-J stent (96 pus samples) and PCN tube (104 pus samples) were included in our study. Among patients with nephrostomy tube, the most frequently isolated microorganisms were Escherichia coli, followed by Pseudomonas spp. In those with a double-J stent, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, followed by E. coli were the most commonly isolated microorganisms. We found 55.72% of cases of Enterobacteriaceae-producing carbapenemases in patients with a percutaneous catheter. 66.07% of Enterobacteriaceae in patients with double-J and nephrostomy stents are extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. The percentage of cultures with multiple-drug resistance (MDR) microorganisms was 38.54% in patients with double-J stents and 37.75% in nephrostomy tubes. The presence of prior urinary tract infection (P = 0.010), presence of urinary catheter before admission (P = 0.005), increased time with single urinary catheter in-situ (P < 0.001), and increased length of hospital stay (P = 0.036) were risk factors for isolation of MDR microorganisms.

Conclusion:

Pseudomonas spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are commonly infecting both the CUUT. E. coli infections are more commonly infecting the nephrostomy tubes. MDR microorganisms are frequent, mainly in patients with prior urinary tract infection, presence of urinary catheter before admission, and prolonged use of a single catheter.

Afectos en la comunicación política: modalidades singulares de la felicidad neoliberal
Authors: Filippelli Nerina 
Published: June 2022

Resumen:
Este trabajo sitúa la mirada en los fenómenos sociales y políticos contemporáneos en los que la dimensión comunicacional y afectiva cobran un rol fundamental que lejos de tener un carácter representacional implican una parte constitutiva en los procesos de interpelación y construcción de las identidades políticas. Las dimensiones comunicacionales y afectivas son centrales a la hora de la construcción de vínculos, y la postulación de principios explicativos que fundan y legitiman una visión del mundo. Cambiemos ha desplegado la puesta en funcionamiento de una singular economía afectiva que creemos ha inaugurado novedosas formas de interpelación en la comunicación política argentina. Así, proponemos indagar, desde la perspectiva del giro afectivo en su línea crítica (Ahmed, 2015, 2019), en la dimensión emocional de la comunicación política de Cambiemos que se materializó en ciertos fragmentos discursivos de circulación pública mediatizada. Así, proponemos un análisis sobre la economía afectiva y discursiva que desplegó la identidad política de Cambiemos.

PENCARIAN YESUS SEJARAH: THE QUEST OF THE HISTORICAL JESUS?
Authors: Purwoko Paulus Sentot , Siregar Gerald Moratua 
Published: June 2022

“Kata orang, Siapakah Aku ini?” (Markus 8:27). Pertanyaan Yesus ini telah menjadi perdebatan serius sepanjang masa. Mulai dari catatan pertama tentang Yesus pada zaman pra gereja mula-mula sampai ke masa kini. Permasalahan Siapa Yesus sebenarnya sudah dimulai sejak Ia hidup bersama murid-murid-Nya. Murid-murid-Nya menjawab pertanyaan-Nya berdasarkan pengamatan orang sezaman-Nya; ada yang menjawab bahwa Yesus ialah Yohanes Pembaptis, Elia atau hanya sekedar nabi belaka. Lantas Siapakah Dia sebenarnya? Pada zaman Pencerahan ini, rasionalisme berkembang pesat, berbagai macam bidang studi muncul dan berkembang, termasuk bidang studi sejarah. Para ahli sejarah menemukan berbagai macam metodologi untuk meneliti obyek-obyek sejarah secara lebih kritis, termasuk Alkitab dan semua tokoh yang ada di dalamnya. Mereka mengakui bukanlah hal mudah untuk melakukan observasi dan menggabungkan satu peristiwa dengan peristiwa lainnya, serta kemudian menarik benang merah dari padanya. Rentang waktu yang sangat panjang, kurangnya bukti-bukti otentik, serta tidak adanya tulisan langsung seorang tokoh sejarah (autobiography) membuat observasi menjadi sulit. Para ahli PB melihat bahwa para reformator lebih banyak membahas doktrin tentang Kristus daripada sejarah Yesus. Mereka lebih banyak menjawab pertanyaan: “Mengapa Yesus mati?”, namun jarang menjawab pertanyaan: “Bagaimana Yesus hidup?

A Single Parameter Hygroscopicity Model for Functionalized and Insoluble Aerosol Surfaces
Authors: Mao Chun-Ning , Gohil Kanishk , Asa-Awuku Akua 
Published: June 2022

Abstract. The impact of molecular level surface chemistry for aerosol water-uptake and droplet growth is not well understood. In this work, spherical, non-porous, monodisperse Polystyrene Latex particles treated with different surface functional groups are exploited to isolate the effects of aerosol surface chemistry for droplet activation. PSL is effectively water-insoluble and changes in the particle surface may be considered a critical factor in the initial water-uptake of water insoluble material. The droplet growth of two surface modified types of PSL (PSL-NH2 and PSL-COOH) along with plain PSL was measured in a supersaturated environment with a Cloud Condensation Nuclei Counter (CCNC). Three droplet growth models - traditional Köhler (TK), Flory-Huggins Köhler (FHK) and the Frenkel-Halsey-Hill adsorption theory (FHH-AT) were compared to experimental data. The experimentally determined single hygroscopicity parameter, κ, was found in the range from 0.002 to 0.04. The traditional Köhler prediction assumes Raoult’s law solute dissolution and underestimates the water-uptake ability of the PSL particles. FHK can be applied to polymeric aerosol; however, FHK assumes the polymer is soluble and hydrophilic. Thus, the FHK model generates a negative result for hydrophobic PSL and predicts non-activation behavior that disagrees with the experimental observation. The FHH-AT model assumes that a particle is water-insoluble and can be fit with 2 empirical parameters (AFHH and BFHH). The FHH-AT prediction agrees with the experimental data and can differentiate the water uptake behavior of the particles due to surface modification of PSL surface. PSL-NH2 exhibits slightly higher hygroscopicity than the PSL-COOH, while plain PSL is the least hygroscopic among the three. This result is consistent with the polarity of surface functional groups and their affinity to water molecules. Thus, changes in AFHH and BFHH can be quantified when surface modification is isolated for the study of water-uptake. The fitted AFHH for PSL-NH2, PSL-COOH and plain PSL is 0.23, 0.21 and 0.18 when BFHH is unity. To simplify the use of FHH-AT for use in cloud activation models, we also present and test a new single parameter framework for insoluble compounds, κFHH. κFHH is within 5 % agreement of the experimental data and can be applied to describe a single-parameter hygroscopicity for water-insoluble aerosol with surface modified properties.
