La gestion des collectivités territoriales entre autonomie et contrôle administratif : étude de cas
Authors: ELBOUBEKRI MOHAMMED 
Published: September 2022

Résumé :
En tant que principe garanti par la Constitution, l’autonomie des collectivités territoriales dépend fortement du contrôle administratif et de l’autonomie financière pour être des acteurs actifs dans la vie économique et sociale du pays. De même, l’autonomie financière des communes ne doit pas seulement être analysée sous la seule l’angle juridique, par lequel ces dernières sont appelées à disposer de la capacité à agir pour déterminer leurs recettes et leurs dépenses. Elle doit aussi être conditionnée par un aspect matériel qui consiste pour ces communes à détenir la possession effective des moyens financiers leur permettant de faire face à leurs charges, car si les moyens financiers des communes font défaut, l’attribution de la personnalité juridique et des compétences qui en découlent devient une pure fiction.
Mots clés :
Autonomie des collectivités territoriales, autonomie financière, contrôle administratif, libre administration.

Flexible electronic devices find wide application in wearable electronics and foldable gadgets. This article reports chemical vapor deposited (CVD) few-layers graphene for a solid-state flexible supercapacitor device. Raman spectroscopy analysis reveals up to five layers in the graphene samples. Polyvinyl alcohol-Na2SO4 hydrogel membrane is used as a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). 50 nm thick silver (Ag) deposited on polyethylene tere­phthalate (PET) through E-beam deposition served as the flexible current collector for the device. Galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) executed on the fabricated device to ana­lyze its electrochemical performance yielded a specific areal capacitance of 15.3 mF cm-2 at 0.05 mA cm-2 current density. The obtained power density of the fabricated device is 0.53 µWh cm-2 at a power density of 25 µW cm-2.
Opinion Article Physician burnout: Root causes, effects, and solutions
Authors: Tabowei Godfrey , Osamudiamen Idahor Courage 
Published: September 2022

Physician burnout is a phenomenon used to describe the work-related syndrome, which encompasses emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, cynical disillusion, and a low sense of personal accomplishment. Rates of physician burnout are exponentially increasing globally but sadly underreported, resulting in reduced attention to it. This issue represents a public health crisis.
For physicians to offer the best care to patients, they must be at their best state in terms of physical and mental energy levels for them to function effectively; if any of these are affected, it could result in poor patient outcomes. Highlighting these factors that could result in burnout and proffering solutions would go a long way in improving patient care.

Authors: Shih Angela R. , Naini Bita V. , Westerhoff Maria , Alpert Lindsay , Masia Ricard , Misdraji Joseph 
Published: September 2022

Context.—
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) hepatitis in allograft livers is an important infectious complication, with histology that historically has been described to overlap with that of acute cellular rejection (ACR), a diagnosis that compels a different treatment regimen.

Objective.—
To update the clinicopathologic features of CMV hepatitis and explore its clinical and histologic relationship with ACR.

Design.—
A retrospective analysis of 26 patients with a diagnosis of CMV hepatitis across 4 institutions was performed, including clinical, histologic, and immunohistochemical features.

Results.—
Patients were predominantly CMV donor positive/recipient negative (D+/R−; n = 9 of 15) and received a diagnosis of CMV hepatitis at a mean age of 52 years (SD, 17 years), at a mean interval of 184 days (SD, 165 days) from transplantation. Mean CMV viral load at diagnosis was 241 000 IU/mL (SD, 516 000 IU/mL), and liver biochemical enzymes were elevated (mean alanine aminotransferase, 212 U/L [SD, 180 U/L]; mean aspartate aminotransferase, 188 U/L [SD, 151 U/L]; mean alkaline phosphatase, 222 U/L [SD, 153 U/L]). Ten cases did not show histologic features of ACR, and 16 cases demonstrated features of ACR (including marked bile duct injury and endotheliitis). Viral cytopathic change was found in all cases. All patients were treated with a combination of antiviral therapy and CMV intravenous immunoglobulin, with near resolution of biochemical enzymes in all patients with undetectable serum CMV viral titers.

Conclusions.—
CMV hepatitis and ACR are complex processes with interlinking mechanisms that are important to distinguish. A subset of transplantation patients with CMV hepatitis show histologic changes that mimic ACR but were treated successfully with antiviral therapy alone.

Published: September 2022

Background
Potato, a vegetable crop grown worldwide, has many uses, a short growth period, a large market demand and high economic benefits. The loss of potato seediness due to traditional potato growing methods is becoming increasingly evident, and research on new ways of growing potatoes is particularly important. Bud planting technology has the advantages of more reproduction, faster growth, and simplified maintenance of crop plants under cultivation.

Methods
In this study, a bud planting method was adopted for the cultivation of potato seedlings. Specifically, we assessed different types of treatments for the production of high-quality buds and seedlings of potato. A total of four disease-free potato varieties (Fujin, Youjin, Zhongshu 4, and Feiwuruita) were selected, potato buds with three different lengths (3 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm) were considered the T1, T2, and T3 treatments, and terminal buds, middle buds, and tail buds were used as the T4, T5, and T6 treatments. A nutrient pot experiment was performed following a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicates and a natural control (CK) treatment. Cultivation was performed with the common horticultural practices of weeding and hoeing applied as needed. The photosynthetic indices, physiological indices, growth indices and quality of potato seedlings and quality of potato buds were measured at two-week intervals, and yield indices were measured when the final crop was harvested 14 weeks after planting.

Results and Conclusions
Cultivation of seedlings from potato buds of different lengths increased the reproduction coefficient and reduced the number of seed potatoes needed for cultivation. All morphological, physiological, and yield indices showed positive trends. A potato bud length of 7 cm was optimal for raising seedlings. Moreover, buds located at the terminal of the potato yielded seedlings with the best quality. In conclusion, we recommend that our proven bud planting technique be adopted at the commercial level, which could support good crop production with maximum yield.

Published: September 2022

Background
Real-world evidence on factor Xa inhibitor (rivaroxaban) prescribing patterns, safety, and efficacy in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is rare. Herein, we sought to examine the above outcomes in the largest academic center in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).

Methods
This is a retrospective observational study designed to examine the prescribing pattern, safety and real-world effectiveness of the factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban in patients with NVAF and VTE. Data on rivaroxaban prescriptions were collected and analyzed. Bleeding outcomes were defined as per the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) definition.

Results
A total of 2,316 patients taking rivaroxaban recruited through several departments of King Saud University Medical City (KSUMC). The mean age was 61 years (±17.8) with 55% above the age of 60 and 58% were females. Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (VTE) was the most prevalent reason for prescribing rivaroxaban, followed by NVAF. A total daily dosage of 15 mg was given to 23% of the patients. The incidence rate of recurrent thrombosis and recurrent stroke was 0.2%. Furthermore, rivaroxaban had a 0.04 percent incidence rate of myocardial infarction. Half of the patients with recurrent thrombosis and stroke were taking 15 mg per day. The incidence rate of major bleeding was 1.1%. More over half of the patients who experienced significant bleeding were taking rivaroxaban at a dosage of 20 mg per day. According to the HAS-BLED Score (>2 score), 48 percent of patients who experienced significant bleeding had a high risk of bleeding. Non-major bleeding occurred in 0.6% of cases. Similarly, 40% of patients with non-major bleeding were taking rivaroxaban at a dosage of 20 mg per day. According to the HAS-BLED Score, just 6.6% of these individuals had a high risk of bleeding. 93.4% of the patients, on the other hand, were at intermediate risk.

Conclusion
The prescription of rivaroxaban in this real-life cohort study differs from the prescribing label and the outcomes of a phase 3 randomised clinical trial. However, for individuals with VTE and NVAF, the 20 mg dose looked to be more efficacious than the pivotal trial outcomes. Furthermore, among patients with VTE and NVAF, rivaroxaban was linked to a decreased incidence of safety events such as recurrent thrombosis, recurrent stroke, MI, major bleeding, and non-major haemorrhage in a real-world environment.

Authors: Maravi Pratibha , Kumar Anil 
Published: September 2022

Background: Cellulose is the most abundant carbohydrate on earth and is considered as a good candidate for production of second generation biofuel (ethanol) and many other products of routine use. For degradation, cellulases are used which are mostly secreted by microbes such as fungi. Cellulases also play an important role in senescence of plants and in host-parasite relationship for invading the plant cell wall. However, comparatively lesser studies have been carried out on cellulase producing bacteria. Therefore, present study was aimed to isolate cellulase (Endo-β-1,4-D-glucanase; EC. 3.2.1.4.) from bacterial sources.
Methodology: To isolate thermophilic/ mesophilic cellulase producing bacteria, soil samples were collected from wood furnishing area and agricultural farm around Indore. Besides, soil sample was also collected from the vicinity of Amlai Paper Mill in Budhar district, Madhya Pradesh. These soil samples after suitable dilutions were streaked on different nutrients agar petri-dishes having carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as an inducer. After screening, four colonies were isolated capable of producing good amount of cellulase. Screening was done using Congo red staining and confirmation was done after growth of the bacteria in liquid nutrient medium having CMC. These colonies individually were grown in suitable nutrient media having CMC as an inducer and enzyme activity was determined in the nutrient media after harvesting bacterial cells by centrifugation.
Results: The highest enzyme producing bacteria were identified as Bacillus lichenoformis and Ochrobactrum anthropi after biochemical analyses, 16S rRNA sequencing and subsequently phylogenetic tree analysis.

Published: September 2022

AbstractControlling nerve cells to form pre‐designed 3D neural networks that recapitulate the intricate neural interconnectivity in the brain is essential for developing neuronal interfaces and new regeneration approaches. Here, nerve cells within 3D biomaterials are dynamically localized using nano‐based magnetic manipulations. Nerve cells are transformed into magnetic units and their organizational layout is manipulated using external magnetic field gradients. Iron oxide nanoparticles are incorporated into both Pheochromocytoma cell‐line 12 (PC12) cells and primary mice cortical neurons and the magnetized cells are subjected to multiple magnetic fields using pre‐designed magnetic arrays. Their movement is controlled inside multi‐layered 3D collagen scaffolds, which simulate the innate properties of in‐vivo tissue structures. Via these magnetic manipulations, functional 3D microarchitectures of neural networks are created. In light of the clustered and layered structure of the mammalian central nervous system, this strategy paves the way to creating customized 3D tissue architectures for bioengineering applications, enabling a broad range of advanced implementations and providing efficient models for investigating cellular and tissue behavior.

AbstractCatalysts assumed that properly designed bimetallic systems would provide superior catalytic performance due to the cooperative effects between two atoms. Dual single‐atom catalyst (DSAC) PdN4/CuN4 is synthesized using a simple, cost‐effective, and efficient electrochemical reduction method. The palladium single‐atom is prepared first by electrochemical reduction of copper phthalocyanine to create defective N4 sites. The new structural feature is characterized by copper reduction from Cu‐N4 coordination and the formation of defected N4 (▫M‐N4) sites, which react with a Pd precursor and form PdN4 on the host surface. The DSAC PdN4/CuN4 technique synergistically improves electrocatalytic performance toward the ethylene glycol oxidation reaction. It possesses excellent glycolate selectivity (above 88%) in an alkaline solution with an onset oxidation potential as low as 0.6 V versus a reversible hydrogen electrode, compared to commercial Pd/C. The DSAC electrocatalyst is characterized by its high current density of 83.92 mA cm−2 and high faradic efficiency value (>80%) for glycolate at 1.0 VRHE. The findings suggest a promising method to synthesize the DSACs in varying transition metals to achieve highly efficient, selective, and environmentally friendly catalysts for different applications.
