La gouvernance de l’eau à l’épreuve du droit négocié. Enquête sur l’activité réglementaire des commissions locales de l’eau
Authors: Barbier Rémi , Liziard Sophie , Fernandez Sara 
Published: August 2022

L’article porte sur le pouvoir réglementaire conféré aux commissions locales de l’eau par la loi sur l’eau et les milieux aquatiques de 2006. En enquêtant sur la manière dont les commissions s’en sont saisies, il met en lumière les enjeux, les ressorts et les effets de l’inscription d’un « droit négocié » dans la gouvernance territoriale de l’eau. La négociation continue avec les services de l’État, sur les cibles et le contenu des règles, conduit d’abord à envisager cette gouvernance comme une forme de co-management de la ressource. L’analyse montre ensuite que les animateurs de schémas d?aménagement et de gestion de l?eau (SAGE) déploient une diversité de tactiques pour gérer les relations avec les représentants de l’État et produire par ailleurs un équilibre entre défense des intérêts catégoriels et dynamique de communalisation. Après son adoption enfin, le sort du règlement dépend en particulier de la posture de la police de l’eau et de sa reprise au sein d’une large communauté d’acteurs.

Published: August 2022

AbstractAlzheimer disease is a neurodegenerative disease that is signified by cognitive
decline, memory loss, and erratic behavior. Dendrimers are a type of polymer
that has a well-defined structure, a high degree of molecular uniformity, and a
low polydispersity which have shown to be effective intracellular drug carriers
for bring down the in numerous cases. The data reported by the clinical trials
and chemical bonds of dendrimers loading and biological properties that may be
used in the bringing out the treatment of nano formulation for Alzheimer
disease. Below-range dendrimers have an unlocked figure, but higher-range
dendrimers have a more globular and dense structure so handling is difficult.
Dendrimers are similar in size to a variety of biological structures; for
example, fifth-generation polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are similar in size
and shape to haemoglobin (5.5 nm diameter). Each generation of dendrimer
is described in terms of size, shape, molecular weight, and the number of
surface functional groups, with increasing growth specified in terms of
'generation number.' In contrast, Hawker and Frechet were the
first to report the convergent approach. A stepwise repeating reaction strategy
is used to synthesize dendrimers radically from a central core. The value of
dendrimers as drug carriers is discussed in this paper. The information
presented in this article can provide useful references for further studies on
making dendrimers and applications.
Are Antibiotics Needed in Septorhinoplasty? An Evidence-Based Approach
Authors: Mantelakis Angelos , Argiris Konstantinos , Joshi Anil , D'Souza Alwyn Ray 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThe use of prophylactic antibiotics in the context of septorhinoplasty (SRP) is a frequently debated topic among plastic surgeons. Most surgeons routinely use antibiotics to prevent the dreaded physical and psychological morbidity of postoperative infections, although this practice is controversial. With antimicrobial resistance becoming a global threat, however, optimizing antibiotic prescribing is essential. The current evidence would suggest that the rate of postoperative infection is low and routine antibiotic use is unnecessary in SRP surgery. Rates range from 0.5 to 2% in simple SRP surgery, majority of which are minor nasal infections which respond to oral antibiotics and do not require hospital admission. In cases of complex SRP, defined as revision cases or where grafts or implants have been utilized, infection rates can be much higher with an incidence of 7 to 11%, and as such utilization of antibiotics is reasonable. When considering the regime to be utilized, a single preoperative dose of intravenous antibiotics has the same efficacy in reducing the incident of postoperative infection as a postoperative 7-day course of oral antibiotics. In the authors' practice, all patients receive a single intravenous dose of antibiotics on induction, and in the case of utilization of a graft from a nonnasal site, this is complimented with an oral course of postoperative antibiotics. With this approach, infections rates are at the lowest range of available published literature.

Abstract
Background Cushing's disease is the most prevalent cause of endogenous Cushing's syndrome. This study aimed to scope the current clinical practice pattern in managing Cushing's disease by endocrinologists in the Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) region.
Methods A questionnaire dealing with diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with Cushing's disease was adopted and sent electronically to a convenience sample of endocrinologists from the MENA region.
Results Out of 125 responses received, 88 were eligible for inclusion in the analysis. Most respondents selected the overnight dexamethasone suppression test (ONDST) and 24-hour urinary-free cortisol (UFC) as the best screening tests, 58 (66.7%) and 50 (57.5%) respectively, followed by midnight serum cortisol and midnight salivary cortisol. Measurement of serum adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH; 86.2%) and classic high-dose dexamethasone suppression test (40.2%) were selected for localization of the primary lesion. The primary choice of treatment was transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (98.8%). For the recurrence of Cushing's disease, medical therapy was the preferred modality followed by repeated pituitary surgery or bilateral adrenalectomy. In case of treatment failure following the first pituitary surgery and ketoconazole treatment, 36.9% selected pasireotide, while 32.1% chose bilateral adrenalectomy.
Conclusion ONDST and UFC are the two most common tests used to screen an index case with features of hypercortisolism. Pituitary surgery is the primary choice of treatment in Cushing's disease. However, medical treatment by ketoconazole is preferred for recurrent cases. Bilateral adrenalectomy is followed by pasireotide may be chosen in case of treatment failure after pituitary surgery and ketoconazole.

Published: August 2022

AbstractWhen public health emergencies occur, relevant information containing different topics, sentiments, and emotions spread rapidly on social media. From the cognitive and emotional dimensions, this paper explores the relationship between information attributes and information dissemination behavior. At the same time, the moderating role of the media factor (user influence) and the time factor (life cycle) in information attributes and information transmission is also discussed. The results confirm differences in the spread of posts under different topic types, sentiment types, and emotion types on social media. At the same time, the study also found that posts published by users with a high number of followers and users of a media type are more likely to spread on social media. In addition, the study also found that posts with different information attributes are easier to spread on social media during the outbreak and recurrence periods. The driving effect of life cycles is more obvious, especially for topics of prayer and fact, negative sentiment, emotions of fear, and anger. Relevant findings have specific contributions to the information governance of public opinion, the development of social media theory, and the maintenance of network order, which can further weaken the negative impact of information epidemic in the occurrence of public health emergencies, maintain normal social order, and thus create favorable conditions for the further promotion of global recovery.

We present a portable CO2 laser heating system for in situ x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) studies at 16-BM-D (High Pressure Collaborative Access Team, Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory). Back scattering optical measurements are made possible by the implementation of a Ge beamsplitter. Optical pyrometry is conducted in the near-infrared, and our temperature measurements are free of chromatic aberration due to the implementation of the peak-scaling method [A. Kavner and W. R. Panero, Phys. Earth Planet. Inter. 143–144, 527–539 (2004) and A. Kavner and C. Nugent, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 79, 024902 (2008)] and mode scrambling of the input signal. Laser power stabilization is established using electronic feedback, providing a steady power over second timescales [Childs et al., Rev. Sci. Instrum. 91, 103003 (2020)]—crucial for longer XAS collections. Examples of in situ high pressure–temperature extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements of ZrO2 are presented to demonstrate this new capability.

Published: August 2022

A new multimodal bidirectional linear inertial impact motor with bidirectional motion based on self-clamping control driven by a single-harmonic signal was designed and manufactured. By applying driving signals of different resonant frequencies to the piezoelectric plate of a piezoelectric motor combined with the unique structural design of the motor, the piezoelectric motor has multiple modes and has the ability of two-way movement. First, the overall structure of the motor is introduced, and its working principle and theoretical displacement characteristics are presented through the periodic motion diagram of the piezoelectric motor. Second, the simulation analysis is carried out to determine the working modal of the proposed motor with COMSOL5.2. Finally, a motor prototype is developed, and the accuracy of the working principle and the simulation analysis is verified through experimental tests. When the motor has no load, the driving voltage is 200 Vp–p. The maximum speed when moving to the right reached 3.125 mm/s when the preload is 2 N, and the driving frequency is 96 Hz. The maximum speed when moving to the left reached 4.301 mm/s when the preload is 4 N, and the driving frequency is 148 Hz. In the load capacity test of the motor prototype, the maximum load of the piezoelectric motor prototype moving to the right and left can reach 0.4 and 0.6 N, respectively. Compared with similar inertial impact motors, the proposed motor achieves flexible control of driving and switching of two-way movement conveniently and has a certain driving ability.

Context The vitrification of oocytes is important for the conservation of animals, and the effect of vitrification on methylation patterns of bovine oocytes remains unclear. Aims This article aims to investigate the effect of vitrification on the DNA methylation patterns on vitrified GV oocytes and their in vitro derived MII oocytes. Methods 5-MeC staining and single-cell whole genome bisulphite sequencing (SC-WGBS) were utilised to analyse fresh GV oocytes (F_GV group), MII oocytes (F_MII group), vitrified GV oocytes (V_GV group) and their in vitro derived MII oocytes (V_MII group). Key results Results of both 5-MeC staining and SC-WGBS showed that no significant difference was found between the F_GV group and the V_GV group, while the methylation level of the V_MII group was significantly lower than that of the F_MII group. Moreover, supplementation of 2 μM resveratrol (Res) in IVM medium significantly improved maturation and development ability of vitrified GV oocytes by restoring their DNA methylation levels. Conclusion In conclusion, vitrification of bovine GV oocytes significantly decreased the DNA methylation level of their in vitro derived MII oocytes, and 2 μM Res improved their development ability by restoring DNA methylation level. Implications Our results provide an efficient approach to improve the maturation and fertilisation ability of vitrified GV oocytes.

Published: August 2022

Epilepsy is a devastating brain disorder for which effective treatments are very limited. There is growing interest in early intervention, which requires a better mechanistic understanding of the early stages of this disorder. While diverse brain insults can lead to epileptic activity, a common cellular mechanism relies on uncontrolled recurrent excitatory activity. In the dentate gyrus, excitatory mossy cells (MCs) project extensively onto granule cells (GCs) throughout the hippocampus, thus establishing a recurrent MC-GC-MC excitatory loop. MCs are implicated in temporal lobe epilepsy, a common form of epilepsy, but their role during initial seizures (i.e., before the characteristic MC loss that occurs in late stages) is unclear. Here, we show that initial seizures acutely induced with an intraperitoneal kainic acid (KA) injection in adult mice, a well-established model that leads to experimental epilepsy, not only increased MC and GC activity in vivo but also triggered a brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)–dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at MC-GC excitatory synapses. Moreover, in vivo induction of MC-GC LTP using MC-selective optogenetic stimulation worsened KA-induced seizures. Conversely,Bdnfgenetic removal from GCs, which abolishes LTP, and selective MC silencing were both anticonvulsant. Thus, initial seizures are associated with MC-GC synaptic strengthening, which may promote later epileptic activity. Our findings reveal a potential mechanism of epileptogenesis that may help in developing therapeutic strategies for early intervention.

Published: August 2022

Objective
To promote tele-audiology, the smartphone online applications (APP) for assessment of hearing function need to be validated. We present our preliminary report of one such APP that we adapted during the active COVID phase of 2021.

Methodology
A total of 44 patients underwent both pure tone audiometry (PTA) and APP-based hearing assessment. The air conduction thresholds at 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, 3000 Hz, 4000 Hz, 6000 Hz and 8000 Hz were noted.

Results
A significant correlation was seen between the thresholds and paired differences. However, air-conduction (AC) thresholds of either PTA or APP were shown to overshoot each other and right side values were more consistent.

Conclusions
While suggestions have been made to overcome these inconsistencies, the APP-based hearing assessment is likely to improve tele-audiology as relevant modifications by the manufacturer are incorporated to improve its efficacy.
High curie temperature, large magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy and piezoelectricity in 2D tetrahedral VXCl (X = Te, Se, S) & VMSe2 (M = Al, Ga, In)

Published: August 2022

Abstract
The ferromagnetic semiconducting materials with tetrahedral coordination structure have lower crystal field repulsion energy and variable structure, which would be beneficial to achieve high Curie temperature and multiferroics. Based on density functional theory calculations, the monolayer VXCl (X = Te, Se, S) and VMSe2 (M = Al, Ga, In) with tetrahedral coordination structure are predicted to be ferromagnetic semiconductors with high T
c and large magnetocrystalline anisotropy. With the monolayer BiCrSe3 (T
c above 400 K) being treated as the representative sample of octahedral materials, we reveal the disadvantages of two different coordination structures in 2D condition, namely tetrahedral and octahedral coordination, and find that modulation of bond angles is effective and feasible to enhance the magnetic exchange of tetrahedral materials. Moreover, the two series of predicted materials have favorable piezoelectric properties. Our work paves a feasible route for finding new low-dimensional ferromagnetic materials with excellent properties.

AbstractThis paper reports the effect of solvent evaporation temperature on spray-coated tin disulfide (SnS2) thin films from molecular ink. Thiourea and tin chloride were the key chemical reagents used for the synthesis of SnS2transparent ink under atmospheric conditions. The structural and compositional properties of SnS2thin films revealed formation of pristine hexagonal SnS2. The films are smooth, homogeneous resulting in band gaps ranging from 2 to 2.22 eV suited for a Cd-free alternative buffer layer for Cu-based multicomponent solar cells. Thermoelectric power measurement showed that tin disulfide films exhibit n-type conductivity. Activation energy estimated from temperature variation of electrical conductivity measurement varied from 40 to 90 mV. Our results suggest that ink-processed SnS2can be used as a potential alternative for opto-electronic devices such as thin film solar cell and photodetector devices.

Abstract

Objective. Implanted brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) employ neural signals to control a computer and may offer an alternative communication channel for people with locked-in syndrome (LIS). Promising results have been obtained using signals from the sensorimotor (SM) area. However, in earlier work on home-use of an electrocorticography (ECoG)-based BCI by people with LIS, we detected differences in ECoG-BCI performance, which were related to differences in the modulation of low frequency band (LFB) power in the SM area. For future clinical implementation of ECoG-BCIs, it will be crucial to determine whether reliable performance can be predicted before electrode implantation. To assess if non-invasive scalp-electroencephalography (EEG) could serve such prediction, we here investigated if EEG can detect the characteristics observed in the LFB modulation of ECoG signals. Approach. We included three participants with LIS of the earlier study, and a control group of 20 healthy participants. All participants performed a Rest task, and a Movement task involving actual (healthy) or attempted (LIS) hand movements, while their EEG signals were recorded. Main results. Data of the Rest task was used to determine signal-to-noise ratio, which showed a similar range for LIS and healthy participants. Using data of the Movement task, we selected seven EEG electrodes that showed a consistent movement-related decrease in beta power (13–30 Hz) across healthy participants. Within the EEG recordings of this subset of electrodes of two LIS participants, we recognized the phenomena reported earlier for the LFB in their ECoG recordings. Specifically, strong movement-related beta band suppression was observed in one, but not the other, LIS participant, and movement-related alpha band (8–12 Hz) suppression was practically absent in both. Results of the third LIS participant were inconclusive due to technical issues with the EEG recordings. Significance. Together, these findings support a potential role for scalp EEG in the presurgical assessment of ECoG-BCI candidates.
