Published: March 2022

We present a case of a 47-year-old woman with type 1 multiple endocrine neoplasia, primary hyperparathyroidism, insulinoma, and nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma. In July 2017, the patient was referred to the Department of Nuclear Medicine of St George University Hospital in Plovdiv for a PET/CT scan because of persistent hypoglycemic episodes and high serum insulin levels. A whole-body PET/CT examination was performed 65 min after intravenous application of 188 MBq 18F-FDG on a hybrid PET/CT scanner (Biograph mCT 64, Siemens). We detected a low metabolically active lesion 10 mm in diameter (SUVmax - 2.00), located below the left thyroid lobe suspicious for parathyroid adenoma. In the remaining scanned areas there were no PET/CT data for other areas with increased glucose metabolism with malignant characteristics that could be associated with the underlying disease.&nbsp;
For further characterisation of the lesion, two months later we performed a single-isotope dual-phase 99mTc-tetrofosmin scintigraphy combined with an early SPECT technique on a SPECT gamma camera (SYMBIA E DUAL). The examination visualized a zone of hyperfixation located dorsally to the caudal portion of the left thyroid lobe associated with a hyperfunctioning parathyroid adenoma.
This case allowed us to compare two nuclear medicine modalities with different equipment and radiopharmaceuticals &ndash; PET/CT with 18F-FDG and single-isotope dual-phase 99mTc-tetrofosmin scintigraphy combined with an early SPECT in one and the same patient. Different factors can explain the acquired different diagnostic information.
Naftali Bennett et le sionisme religieux
Authors: Cohen Samy 
Published: March 2022

Le gouvernement israélien est dirigé par un sioniste religieux. Il importe de connaître l’histoire de ce courant adepte du « Grand Israël », qui connut les pires dérives. Comment un groupe naguère marginal a-t-il réussi à apparaître comme héritier des fondateurs d’un État laïc ? Son ascension paraît durable, les sionistes religieux occupant des postes clés. La coalition gouvernementale que préside Naftali Bennett est très fragile, mais aucun de ses membres n’a intérêt à la déstabiliser pour l’instant.
Espace de fiction – Espace de reconnaissance. Théâtre, don et vérité
Authors: Hénaff Marcel 
Published: March 2022

Invitant à dépasser la distinction traditionnelle entre mimesis et diegesis , cet article se propose d’envisager en quoi le théâtre, comme activité de représentation fictionnelle de séquences d’actions, peut être compris de manière pertinente selon la catégorie du don. Qu’est-ce qui se joue et se donne dans le jeu théâtral ? Ce jeu, à l’instar des rituels d’échange des sociétés traditionnelles, est un jeu sérieux. Il implique dans son agencement et par l’effet de la performance, un pacte de reconnaissance entre acteurs et spectateurs. Il relève d’un processus de relations à la fois empathique et distancié. Et c’est dans la mesure où chacun, dans cette distance ludique, joue le jeu que peuvent circuler les affects entre la scène et la salle et que la fiction peut exercer sa prise sur la vie.
L’adoption dans le culte napolitain des âmes du Purgatoire
Authors: Villain-Carapella Florian 
Published: March 2022

Parmi les rites associés au culte napolitain des âmes du Purgatoire, tel qu’il s’est transformé au xix e siècle, l’adoption des crânes est sans doute le plus célèbre et le plus singulier à la fois. Cette pratique qui fait sortir ces derniers de l’indifférenciation – et parfois même de l’anonymat – repose essentiellement sur l’expérience onirique de l’apparition surnaturelle des morts. En mettant l’accent sur l’élaboration narrative du rêve plutôt que sur son contenu latent, cet article se propose d’interroger la dimension socio-anthropologie de ce besoin de raconter des histoires et d’en faire don. Il apparaîtra alors que l’adoption consiste en un don de récit s’inscrivant dans une vertueuse circularité de dons où se donne à voir de façon saisissante ce que Mauss appelle le « fait social total ».
Vélins de Paris et vélins de Vienne
Authors: Heurtel Pascale , Lenoir Michelle 
Published: March 2022

La bibliothèque centrale du Muséum national d’histoire naturelle, à Paris, et l’Österreichische National Bibliothek, à Vienne, conservent toutes deux plus de 700 vélins de plantes et d’oiseaux datant du xviie siècle qui sont étonnamment ressemblants. Les vélins parisiens, commandés par Gaston d’Orléans au peintre en miniature Nicolas Robert, puis légués à Louis XIV, sont les premiers d’une collection poursuivie jusqu’au xixe siècle ; les vélins viennois ont été copiés sur ceux de la collection royale pour Colbert par Robert et trois autres miniaturistes, avant d’être vendus en 1728 par le comte de Seignelay. Après avoir évoqué la naissance de la collection parisienne, nous nous sommes intéressées à la carrière et aux conditions de travail des peintres retenus pour exécuter les copies destinées à Colbert, sous l’autorité de ses bibliothécaires, puis à la cession de la collection colbertine au Prince Eugène de Savoie par le libraire Pierre-Jean Mariette. L’examen systématique de la collection viennoise a fait apparaître les modifications matérielles et intellectuelles apportées par Mariette à sa présentation. La comparaison des inventaires dressés de part et d’autre à l’époque a également permis de mettre en évidence les différences entre les deux collections, particulièrement les lacunes de l’une et de l’autre ; ce faisant, elle a, de manière inattendue, révélé l’ampleur des reclassements intervenus au xixe siècle sur la collection du Muséum, dont l’étude complète reste à faire.
Intensive Care Unit Clinicians’ Perspectives on Achieving Proactive Interprofessional Family Meetings
Authors: Seaman Jennifer B. , Rak Kimberly J. , Carpenter Amanda K. , Arnold Robert M. , White Douglas B. 
Published: March 2022

Background
Although proactive interprofessional family meetings are widely recommended as a best practice for patient- and family-centered care in intensive care units (ICUs), adherence to this recommendation is low.

Objectives
To enhance understanding of practices, barriers, and facilitators related to the conduct of family meetings from the perspective of ICU clinicians and to elicit clinicians’ ideas and opinions about strategies to achieve proactive interprofessional family meetings.

Methods
Semistructured telephone interviews were conducted with ICU clinicians who were purposively selected from among a national sample. Constant comparative analysis was used to generate a matrix of themes; enrollment ceased when no new ideas emerged.

Results
Interviews were conducted with 14 participants (10 nurses, 3 physicians, and 1 care manager). Rather than having a protocol for proactive family meetings, participants primarily held family meetings when physicians thought that it was time to discuss a transition to comfort-focused care. Other barriers included clinicians’ discomfort with end-of-life conversations, physicians’ time constraints, and nurses’ competing clinical responsibilities. Facilitators included physicians’ skill and comfort with difficult conversations, advocacy for family meetings from care managers/ social workers, and having full-time intensivists. Participants offered/endorsed multiple intervention ideas, including scheduling preemptively, monitoring unit performance, and adding discussion of a family meeting to daily rounds.

Conclusions
A key barrier to proactive family meetings is the mindset that family meetings need occur only when a clinical decision must be made, rather than proactively to support and engage families. Clinicians suggested ways to make proactive family meetings routine.
Antibiotic prescription for HIV-positive patients in primary health care in Mozambique: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Faiela Candido , Sevene Esperanca 
Published: March 2022

Background: Antibiotic overuse is a major public health challenge worldwide and it can result in the emergence and spread of drug resistance. In Mozambique, there are limited data related to primary care physicians’ antibiotic prescription patterns. The aim of this study was to assess the antibiotic prescription patterns for HIV- positive patients in primary health care.Methods: A prospective cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted in eight primary health care units in Southern Mozambique. The study was based on recording outpatient prescriptions using a structured questionnaire. Three hundred and sixty-nine prescriptions and clinical records of HIV-positive patients from 31 prescribers were assessed. A total of eight general practitioners, 13 medical technicians and 10 nurses participated.Results: Antibiotics were used in 65.9% of prescriptions, with an average of 0.9 antibiotics per prescription. Of a total of 334 prescribed antibiotics, 69.8% were for the treatment of infections and 30.2% for prophylaxis. Penicillin (29.2%), sulphonamides (19.7%), and quinolones (16.3%) were the most prescribed classes of antibiotics for treatment. For prophylaxis, only sulphonamides (93.1%) and macrolides (6.9%) were prescribed. The diagnosis was the only variable that had a significant association with antibiotic prescription (p 0.001). Most of penicillins (68.0%) and sulphonamides (21.4%) were prescribed to treat infections related to the respiratory tract.Conclusion: The prescription of antibiotics was high and influenced by patient clinical conditions. Antibiotics were prescribed either for treatment or prophylaxis of infections, mostly to treat respiratory tract infections. Prescribers should be encouraged to adopt a rational use of antibiotics to reduce unnecessary prescriptions.

Authors: Ahlers Petri , Said-Hartley Mariam Q. 
Published: March 2022

Background: A high incidence of thromboembolic phenomena has been widely reported in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. There is, however, a paucity of data detailing the incidence and characteristics of pulmonary emboli (PE) in COVID-19 patients in the South African setting.Objectives: To describe the incidence and characteristics of PE confirmed by CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia admitted to a tertiary hospital in the Western Cape, South Africa.Methods: This was a retrospective-, descriptive study of all adult patients with COVID-19 pneumonia confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) undergoing CTPA for suspected PE while admitted to Groote Schuur Hospital. The study period was from 01 April 2020 to 30 September 2020.Results: The study cohort consisted of 116 patients, 59% being female, of whom 29% were pregnant or in the postpartum period. The median age for both genders combined was 49.5 years. The overall incidence of PE was 19%, with 20% in our subset of pregnant and postpartum patients. The majority (64%) of PE’s were reported as being segmental in anatomical location.Conclusion: The noteworthy cohort included patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), HIV as well as pregnant and postpartum patients. The overall incidence of PE was 19% with no significant differences in demographics, comorbidities or D-dimer levels between patients with or without PE. The importance of a high clinical index of suspicion together with the role of CTPA in diagnosing PE in hospitalised COVID-19 patients is emphasised.

“BUT I KNOW THE WORD IN ENGLISH, JUST NOT IN GERMAN!” - THE UNFAIRNESS OF VOCABULARY -TRANSLATION TESTING AND LISTS
Authors: Buechel Laura 
Published: March 2022

Due to convenience and expectations from parents, learners and other levels of schooling, Vocabulary-translation lists and test tests are one of the most frequent teaching and testing formats used in Swiss primary and lower secondary schools. This style of testing in ELT is, however, is fraught with problems ranging from the unfairness to learners who do not speak the local language (here German) at home, to the measures of what constructs are actually being assessed through such tests. Such tests are a frequent topic of discussion and discord in pre and in-service teacher training. In this paper, reasons for not using such tests and suggestions for alternative list forms and test types serving similar purposes are presented.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0951/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

THE VOCABULARY LEVEL REQUIRED FOR THE READING PART OF THE UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE EXAM (EIT) IN ENGLISH IN UKRAINE
Authors: Shirav Anastasia 
Published: March 2022

This paper aimed to reveal the level of vocabulary required for comprehension of 95% and 98% of texts given in the reading part of the English test (EIT) taken by high-schoolers in Ukraine in order to enter universities. The results showed that around 8,000 most frequent English words are needed to be known to achieve comprehension of 98% of the texts. The figures provided in the research could potentially help raise Ukrainian ELT teachers’ awareness in developing an English curriculum. Moreover, the results support the suggestion made by Nation (2006), that vocabulary of about 8,000 most frequent words is needed for comprehension of authentic texts.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0938/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
INVESTIGATING FACTORS AFFECTING READING COMPREHENSION, PERCEPTIONS OF READING TASK-TYPES AND STRATEGIES
Authors: Huyen To Thi Ngoc , Anh Khau Hoang 
Published: March 2022

Reading can be a crucial skill in studying a language as it helps record a plethora of knowledge in the world. Reading can be an entertaining activity or it can be a task. This study aims at investigating the task as this is commonly seen in studying a language. More specifically, the study targets three different objectives and 30 first-year English majors were recruited to answer the survey questions. They were asked about the factors that they thought to have the greatest effects on reading comprehension. The second section asked them about their opinion about difficult reading comprehension task-types. The third section elicited their opinion about reading comprehension strategies which they thought to be difficult to apply in doing comprehension tasks. The results revealed that most of the participants posited that they had obstacles in vocabulary, grammatical structures and unfamiliarity of the topic and vocabulary was seen as the most problematic. Then, grammatical structures were seen as the second most difficult. Furthermore, they thought that true/false questions, sentence completion questions; tasks like summary/table completion; and multiple-choice questions hindered them from understanding the reading comprehension tasks. Next, guessing the meaning from the context was found to be the most difficult strategy while spotting the specific information to answer the questions was seen as the second difficulty. Some limitations of the study were also concluded.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0926/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
