Les scientifiques français en exil aux États-Unis pendant la seconde guerre mondiale
Authors: Dosso Diane 
Published: September 2022

Après la signature de l’armistice franco-allemand en juin 1940, une poignée de scientifiques français se préparèrent à l’exil. Qui sont ces scientifiques ? Pourquoi quittèrent-ils leur pays ? Comment organisèrent-ils leur départ ? Après avoir examiné ces différentes questions, nous suivrons l’itinéraire de certains scientifiques au départ de France, nous enquêterons sur leur emploi et leurs ressources en Amérique, jusqu’à la création du Bureau Scientifique au sein de la Délégation de la France libre aux États-Unis. Le relatif échec de leur participation à l’effort de guerre allié dans les laboratoires américains sera finalement compensé par le succès de la Mission Scientifique Française en Grande-Bretagne, première étape vers leur retour en France en 1945.
Les cartes géologiques départementales : entre savants et ingénieurs des mines
Authors: Savaton Pierre 
Published: September 2022

La première cartographie géologique de détail de la France fut d'abord une œuvre individuelle et locale, héritière des idées géognosiques de la fin du xviiie siècle et des premiers essais de cartes géologiques modernes. Ces cartes départementales faisaient pourtant partie du projet d'une carte générale de la France, initié et réalisé par le corps des mines. Elie de Beaumont et Dufrénoy n'avaient pas encore publié leur carte, que le ministère reprenait en mains ce projet de cartes de détail : les départements financèrent les levers, qui furent exécutés par les ingénieurs des mines. Marquées autant par leur dimension personnelle que par leur époque, ces cartes allaient être remplacées à la fin du xixe siècle par une couverte harmonisée à l'échelle de 1/80000.

Introduction:
C-reactive protein (CRP) has come to prominence in the cardiovascular field with the inflammatory hypothesis of atherosclerosis. Many studies evaluated the role of CRP as a prognostic marker in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The aim of our work was to study the relation between admission CRP level and the angiographic severity of coronary artery disease in patients presenting with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction.

Patients and Methods:
Admission CRP was measured for 100 STEMI patients before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Complexity of coronary lesion was assessed using both Syntax score and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow.

Results:
Syntax score was significantly higher in the 3rd CRP tertile (20.24 ± 5.6 and P = 0.000), TIMI 0 flow was the highest in the 3rd tertile (24% and P = 0.001). We found a significant positive correlation between Syntax score and CRP and a significant negative correlation between CRP and TIMI flow (P = 0.001 and 0.005, respectively). Receiver operating characteristic curve constructed to determine the sensitivity of admission CRP to determine intermediate to high risk SYNTAX score showed a level ≥8.4 mg/dl as 71% sensitive (area under the curve [AUC] =0.65 and a P = 0.02) and an admission CRP of ≥4.8 mg/dl to be 81% sensitive in determining no or faint antegrade flow (TIMI 0 and 1) (AUC = 0.71. P =0.001).

Conclusion:
There is a strong positive correlation between admission CRP and the syntax score and TIMI flow in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, thus adding CRP to the risk scoring systems used to assess STEMI patients before PPCI can help better risk stratify patients before going into the cath laboratory.
Syndrome de Stickler : une observation clinique
Authors: Bechakh Islam 
Published: September 2022

Stickler syndrome, also known as hereditary arthroophtalmopathy, is a dominantly inherited polymarformative syndrome characterized by clinical signs as follows: i) polyepiphyseal dysplasia that can lead to early arthrosis, ii) bilateral myopia that is not very progressive but can lead to retinal detachment, and iii) facial dysmorphia that may improve with age. This syndrome may include severe orofacial abnormalities such as Pierre Robin syndrome. We report the case of a 14-year-old child diagnosed with an incomplete form of the syndrome but who fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of this syndrome with "ophthalmological manifestations" in the foreground. The surgical management of this case resulted in a failure of retinal reapplication despite the temporal retinectomy performed. This observation illustrates an exceptional etiology of retinal detachment, represented by an osteoarticular polymalformative syndrome, revealed by an extra-articular manifestation, which underscore the whole severity of this disease.
Le syndrome de Stickler, appelé aussi arthro-ophtalmopathie héréditaire, est un syndrome polymarformatif héréditaire de transmission dominante, caractérisé par une dysplasie poly-épiphysaire pouvant entraîner des arthroses précoces, une myopie bilatérale peu évolutive mais susceptible d'entraîner un décollement rétinien, et une dysmorphie faciale pouvant s'atténuer avec l'âge. Ce syndrome peut comporter des anomalies oro-faciales sévères à type de syndrome de Pierre Robin. Nous rapportons le cas d’un enfant de 14 ans diagnostiqué d’une forme incomplète mais qui remplit les critères diagnostiques de ce syndrome avec comme au premier plan « les manifestations ophtalmologiques » dont la prise en charge chirurgicale s’est soldée par un échec de la réapplication de la rétine malgré la rétinectomie temporale réalisée. Cette observation illustre une étiologie exceptionnelle du décollement de rétine, représentée par un syndrome polymalformatif ostéo-articulaire, révélé par une manifestation extra-articulaire qui peut constituer toute la gravité de cette maladie.

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, has put in place a national response plan. We reviewed the organization of the response in light of the first objective of this plan during the first year of the crisis. This study reviewed the different components of surveillance and some pillars of the health system, which are critical to understanding the results of the response today and in the future. There was a lack of efficiency in internal communication chains due to poor coordination of stakeholders and their interventions; and insufficient financial resources. Despite these weaknesses, the DRC has avoided the announced disaster. Various factors related to the environment, the age structure of its population, the level of circulation of the virus within this population and others to be elucidated in future research could contribute to the understanding of the current situation and influence the future management of epidemics. It is clear that better coordination and resource mobilization, as well as a resilient health system, will allow for better surveillance and less stressful management of future health crises.
La République démocratique du Congo (RDC), frappée par la pandémie de la COVID-19, a mis en place un plan de riposte national au regard du premier objectif de ce plan pendant la première année de crise. Cette étude a passé en revue les différentes composantes de la surveillance et certains piliers du système de santé, éléments critiques pour la compréhension des résultats de la riposte aujourd’hui et future. Un manque d’efficience a été observé dans les chaines internes de communication lié à une faible coordination des intervenants et de leurs interventions ; et des ressources financières insuffisantes. Malgré ces faiblesses la RDC a évité la catastrophe annoncée. Divers facteurs liés à l’environnement, à la structure d’âge de sa population, au niveau de circulation du virus au sein de cette population et d’autres à élucider dans les recherches futures pourraient contribuer à la compréhension de la situation actuelle et influencer la gestion future de gestion des épidémies. Il est évident qu’une meilleure coordination et mobilisation des ressources, ainsi qu’un système de santé résiliant, permettront une meilleure surveillance et une gestion moins stressante des crises sanitaires à venir.

Published: September 2022

Background: Emergency caesarean section(C-section) for women with two or more uterine scars is documented to be associated with poor fetomaternal outcomes. The World Health Organization recommends elective C-section for women with two or more previous scars. However, in Tanzania there is a paucity of data for women with two or more prior C-sections and how it contributes to increased maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality when they come in active labour without a planned delivery. The purpose of the study was to determine factors associated with pregnant women with multiple C-section deliveries presenting in labour and their fetomaternal outcomes.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional, hospital-based study, involving 275 pregnant women who underwent C-section due to multiple uterine scars in the Mwanza region. Socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were collected serially until the sample size was reached using a structured questionnaire and patients’ files. Data were analyzed using STATA version 13.0 software.
Results: All pregnant women with two or more previous uterine scars attended antenatal care (ANC) and the majority, 62.2%, had four or more visits. However, 61.9% were not told of the need for elective C-section. In addition, 26% were not counselled about the obstetric danger signs. Among the study participants, 66.6% presented with labour pain requiring emergency C-section, 13.1% had postpartum hemorrhage and 3.3% had ruptured uterus. There were 3.3% peri-natal deaths and 10.9% required newborn resuscitation. The associated factors for women with two or more C-section scars presenting in active labour were: having the last ANC visit at primary healthcare (PHC) facility (p=0.046), unemployment (p<0.001), visiting ANC <4 visits (p=0.002) or being attended by a non-physician health provider in her last ANC visit(p<0.001).
Conclusion: Parturient women with uterine scars, when attending primary health care facilities for their ANC visits, ought to be counselled and referred to high facilities with clinicians who can plan an elective c-section delivery.

EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PRACTICES IN ZANZIBAR: PARENT’S INVOLVEMENT IN THE LEARNING OF THEIR CHILDREN IN PRE-PRIMARY EDUCATION
Authors: Chai Ali , Renatus Mligo , Shaghembe Nsolezi 
Published: September 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore parent’s involvement in the learning of their children in pre-primary education (PPE). Parent’s involvement has a wide sense in modern education trends, evolving parent’s lifelong participation in children’s school activities. In this regard, it would be difficult to cover the topic in this wide sense. Therefore, the study was more focused on exploring the ways that parent’s get involved in the learning of their children in PPE, identify the challenges for low parent’s involvement and suggest strategies to improve parent’s involvement in the learning of their children in PPE.
Methodology: The study employed qualitative methodology and a case study design where only PPE level among other levels of education was involved. A total number of 24 participants were participated in the study where by 10 were parents and 14 were pre-primary school teachers. The study was guided by the Ecological System Theory. Data was generated by using semi structured interviews and focus group discussion guided by a series of open ended questions as well as documentary review.
Findings: The study reveals that parents were involved in parenting, school meeting and in helping their children’s academic works. Shortage of time, parent’s illiteracy, poor school experience of parents and the lack of sensitive learning programs between school and home limited parents to get involved in the study of their children. Also, the study found that creating effective communication between school and home, developing guidelines for parental involvement as well as creating collaborating academic activities between school and home were the strategies to improve parent’s involvement in the study of their children in PPE.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommends that PPE schools should create conducive atmosphere for mutual contact between teachers and parents so as to enable parents to visit the school and contact with teachers regularly for their children’s learning progress. Also, policy makers should integrate PPE with parenting styles so as to raise awareness and equip parents with knowledge on the vital role of participating in the education of their children.
Moderating Influence of Portfolio Rebalancing on the Relationship between Asset Allocation and Financial Performance of Pension Funds in Kenya
Authors: Boyante Roba , Muturi Willy , Gekara Mouni 
Published: September 2022

Purpose: This paper examined the moderating influence of portfolio rebalancing on the relationship between asset allocation and financial performance of pension funds in Kenya.
Methodology: The study used a descriptive research design with data collection form used to gather secondary data. The target population for this study was 1,258 registered schemes as per RBA as of 31 December 2021. The sample consisted of 294 registered schemes. Secondary data was obtained from the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) for the study variables for the six-year period between 2016- 2021. The data was analyzed using multiple linear regression and subjected to diagnostic tests.
Findings: The study findings revealed that portfolio rebalancing had a significant moderating influence on all the variables except guaranteed funds which was not significant. This is expected since return on guaranteed funds is fixed (minimum guarantee) and therefore, the return on investors’ funds will remain constant overtime even with portfolio rebalancing of the fund’s asset under management. The study findings resonate with policy discourses suggesting that active portfolio rebalancing may yield better returns to members through proactive management of portfolio risks.
Unique Contributions to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study validates the modern portfolio theory whose premise is selection and construction of asset portfolios to maximize the portfolio expected return and the concurrently minimize the attendant risk. The study can help policy makers such as Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) in Kenya review investment ceilings imposed on different asset classes which restrict the range of asset allocation strategies available to those charged with pension fund asset management responsibilities by establishing quantitative limits on investment, typically by asset class. The trustees and fund managers can use the study findings to ensure adoption of an optimal mix of different asset classes that can maximize member’s returns.
EXAMINING SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONSTRAINTS OF SMALLHOLDER WOMEN RICE FARMERS: A CASE STUDY OF GARU AND TEMPANE DISTRICTS, GHANA
Authors: Abdulai Yakubu , Matsui Kenichi 
Published: September 2022

Purpose: Past studies generally agree that gender-based socio-economic constraints in the agricultural sector negatively affect the growth of the agricultural sector in Ghana and other African countries. The government statistics showed that the Upper East Region of Ghana experienced a substantial decline in productivity, but few studies have clarified what socio-economic factors actually contributed to this decline. This study attempts to identify these factors and the extent to which these factors affect women farmers.
Methodology: We conducted a preliminary field survey in Ghana among farmers and government officials and identified several possible factors, such as poor access to tractor services and improved seeds, the patriarchal traditional land tenure system, insufficient credit availability, limited extension services and lower fertilizer usage. On the basis of our preliminary survey, we designed a questionnaire to gain insights into local productivity and women’s roles. We selected ten farming communities in Garu and Tempane districts of the Upper East Region. Through purposive sampling, we distributed the questionnaire among 14 smallholder women rice farmers randomly from each community (a total of 140 respondents). We obtained valid answers from all.
Findings: The results showed that women rice farmers identified the following factors that had inhibited their production activities: obtaining credit from financial institutions (95%), the limited availability of extension services (85%), the high cost of fertilizer (78%), poor accessibility to certified seeds (74%), patriarchal land tenure system (63%) and poor access to tractor service (59%). We then conducted a multiple regression analysis and found that respondents’ education, rice farming experience and income significantly influenced how they identified these constraints.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Agricultural productivity has been largely framed within a context of agricultural science, breeding, or food security, but not so much within a context of gender studies. In many rural areas of northern Ghana, women remain invisible, inaccessible and marginal in terms of policy support, scholarly investigation, and socio-economic equity; yet they are the very backbone of Ghana’s agricultural economy. This paper offers locally ground insights as a result of long-term field experience that allowed us to reach many of these marginalized local farmers. Whereas abortion and pro-life choice can be some of the on-going concerns for women in developed countries, local farmers in our study area share with us somewhat different and unique insights on how gender equity can be interconnected to food productivity.

Published: September 2022

Literary work is part of human thought expressed in written form or spoken. A heartfelt Literary work is one that is honest, true to experience and human nature, and therefore can tell the truth about the human experience. All written materials are included in the definition of literature. It includes a wide range of general categories such as novels, dramas, and poems, and the song is also included in poem form. Many approaches can be used to analyze a literary work, one of which is a feminist approach. Feminism can be used to critique literary works. Literature can be analyzed from the perspective of women using a feminist approach. There are many types of feminism that have been present in today's era, one of which is liberal feminism. Liberal feminism is freedom as personal autonomy and political autonomy. The purpose of this study is to analyze the liberal feminism values contained in the chosen song of the singer Britney Spears by using the theory of Baehr and Amy (2021). The method used in this research is a qualitative method. The results of this study indicate that the values of liberal feminism found are being free of the limits set by patriarchal paternalistic and moralistic laws (3 data), and having access to options (2 data). Also, in this research, the researcher found the most dominant liberal feminism value in Britney Spears’s selected songs is which has to be free of the limits set by patriarchal paternalistic and moralistic laws 3 data.
“Nuestro objetivo esencial es la defensa del sector que, en definitiva, son los intereses del país”: asociaciones agrarias, lógicas institucionales y discursos en la pampa cordobesa
Authors: Carini Gabriel 
Published: September 2022

El análisis de la discursividad de las asociaciones agrarias constituye un insumo insoslayable para la comprensión de las lógicas institucionales del pasado y del presente, puesto que no solo son un recurso expresivo sino que es el marco desde el cual se realizan los diagnósticos sobre la realidad del sector, interpelan y movilizan a sus bases sociales, en definitiva, identifican intereses y estructuran identidades. Bajo ese supuesto, el objetivo del presente artículo es brindar una descripción de las características que asumió la discursividad generada por una entidad reivindicativa de primer grado de la provincia de Córdoba. Así, exploraremos algunos de los principales tópicos del discurso de la mencionada entidad e identificaremos puntos de convergencia con los discursos circulantes de otros actores agrarios del mundo rural argentino. Para ello nos serviremos de un conjunto de documentos institucionales como las memorias anuales pero privilegiaremos el análisis de la prensa gráfica porque considerar que es un medio habitual de canalización de las problemáticas de la situación agropecuaria en general y de las problemáticas institucionales en particular. Asimismo, apelaremos a una metodología e análisis cualitativa y retomaremos algunos elementos de la teoría del discurso.
