Approche socio-spirituelle d’éducation à la paix
Creators: name: Uwimanimpaye, Donata
Publisher: name: theologie.geschichte
Year: 2018

description: This article deals with how to educate younger generations in peace values. Peace cannot be handled in one way but in a holistic approach. In our case, we are not able to reach all domains and that is why we limit our reflection to spirituality and to social sciences. In spirituality we focus on some elements of moral and spiritual growth to reach the gift of peace which is given by God. In social sciences we focus on education and culture! To be artisan of peace requires both, the gift of God and the education in values of peace. Indeed, when a child is surrounded by immorality, jealousy, hostility, threat, abuse and lack of guidance, he learns to be aggressive and violent in his life. For the child to develop the attitude for peace, he must be educated in favourable conditions, such as the habit of contemplation, the warm affection of parents, educators and peers as well as of the different community leaders. Devaluation affects the identity of the group and its relationship to others and their frustration leads to violence. That is why students have to learn tolerance and recognition. As autonomy and relationship are the basic needs for all children and adults regardless of culture, self-awareness may take place in order to know about one’s values and those of others for one another’s respect. Meeting the needs of all groups and all nations is affected by positive links between them and that is why it is deserved to teach the values of collaboration, empathy, compassion or sharing. When conflicts occur, which we cannot avoid, students have to know how to resolve them peacefully. This world of globalization systems shows a lot of values and it is hard for young people to choose. Therefore, young generations need models of people who, in their lives, have exceeded the limits of their groups for the sake of others. School moral and religious education, local communities, should give to educators and to students, effective guidance such as explaining the rules of life and the importance of respect for other people, by appreciating their good values and their beliefs, or recognizing their identity, without compromising their own.

description: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) are a rare tumor entity with largely unpredictable progression and increasing incidence in developed countries. Molecular pathways involved in PanNETs development are still not elucidated, and specific biomarkers are missing. Moreover, the heterogeneity of PanNETs makes their treatment challenging and most approved targeted therapeutic options for PanNETs lack objective responses. Here, we applied a systems biology approach integrating dynamic modeling strategies, foreign classifier tailored approaches, and patient expression profiles to predict PanNETs progression as well as resistance mechanisms to clinically approved treatments such as the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) inhibitors. We set up a model able to represent frequently reported PanNETs drivers in patient cohorts, such as Menin-1 (MEN1), Death domain associated protein (DAXX), Tuberous Sclerosis (TSC), as well as wild-type tumors. Model-based simulations suggested drivers of cancer progression as both first and second hits after MEN1 loss. In addition, we could predict the benefit of mTORC1 inhibitors on differentially mutated cohorts and hypothesize resistance mechanisms. Our approach sheds light on a more personalized prediction and treatment of PanNET mutant phenotypes.

description: This paper defines total factor productivity as a function of a nation’s intellectual capital. By developing a simple model, it explored the long-run relationship between intellectual capital and total factor productivity. The value of total factor productivity for each country was computed from Penn World Tables 10 using the residual method, and an index of intellectual capital was constructed from several indicators taken from world development indicators. Using a common correlated effect approach, a panel of 29 countries over 31 years was estimated using various dynamic macro panel models. The result confirmed the existence of a positive and significant link between total factor productivity and intellectual capital index. This implies that a potential source of productivity difference lies with a nation’s research and development, human capital, processing, and marketing capabilities in boosting the general innovation process. Thus, national and regional development policies need to consider ways to improve broader innovation. Future research on total factor productivity needs to consider things outside the box. The essential causes of productivity has been a formidable question since enlightenment. In classical and pre-classical periods, the difference in productivity was attributed to differences in geographical and people's attitude to work and luxury. In neoclassical, productiveness was an effect of natural force inside material objects and hence, consider differences in material accumulation as cause of productivity difference. Following the failure of material accumulation, the difference was considered as residual or total factor productivity by exogenous growth models and later confined to technological ideas and its spillover effects by the new endogenous growth models. However, none of these could explain the twin productivity puzzles. In this paper, intellectual capital was hypothesized as an integral factor underlying the scatteredly presumed drivers of differences in productivity across countries. It also provided an empirical justification for an existence of consistent link between total factor productivity and intellectual capital across nations at all levels of development in all economic regions. This implies, the previously fragmented concepts and factors are now the characteristics of intellectual capital. The new insight could simplify the theoretical complexities and empirical inconsistencies in productivity literature. It could also beneficial for national and regional policy makers to broader their view beyond technological innovation in order to improve productivity and catch-up process.
Wallace Stevens: Lyrisch Philosophieren
Creators: name: Hühn, Peter
Publisher: name: Trier University
Year: 2022

description: Wallace Stevens is widely regarded as an author whose poetry possesses a particularly close affinity to philosophy, which is usually taken to mean that his poems contain statements of philosophical concepts or propositions. In contrast to this, the following article examines the relation of Stevens’s poetry and philosophy with respect not to the contents of his poems but to their sequential structure. This analytic focus is motivated by the observation that the progression of the utterance in a great many of Stevens’s poems appears to be modelled on the principles of philosophical argumentation: i.e., that the poems go through a quasi-philosophical process of questioning, reflection, and cognition. As lyric poems, however, they pursue this practical process of thinking and arguing on the basis of the principles of poetic composition. The poems can thus be described as employing two different discourse types at the same time and in interaction with each other: philosophical argumentation, on the one hand, and poetic composition on the other. Accordingly, the following analyses are guided by two questions: first, what aims do the argumentations in the poems pursue and, second, how do the two discourse types interact with each other in that process? Three poems from different periods of Stevens’s poetic œuvre are used as examples: “A High-Toned Old Christian Woman” (1923), “Man Carrying Thing” (1947) and “The Plain Sense of Things” (1954).

description: Sparse and robust classification models have the potential for revealing common predictive patterns that not only allow for categorizing objects into classes but also for generating mechanistic hypotheses. Identifying a small and informative subset of features is their main ingredient. However, the exponential search space of feature subsets and the heuristic nature of selection algorithms limit the coverage of these analyses, even for low-dimensional datasets. We present methods for reducing the computational complexity of feature selection criteria allowing for higher efficiency and coverage of screenings. We achieve this by reducing the preparation costs of high-dimensional subsets to those of one-dimensional ones . Our methods are based on a tight interaction between a parallelizable cross-validation traversal strategy and distance-based classification algorithms and can be used with any product distance or kernel. We evaluate the traversal strategy exemplarily in exhaustive feature subset selection experiments (perfect coverage). Its runtime, fitness landscape, and predictive performance are analyzed on publicly available datasets. Even in low-dimensional settings, we achieve approximately a 15-fold increase in exhaustively generating distance matrices for feature combinations bringing a new level of evaluations into reach.

description: Globalisation and increasing digitisation mean that companies must increasingly orientate themselves internationally in order to become (more) competitive or to remain competitive. Promoting e-working can revitalise rural development. The issue involved is always interaction between people from different cultures, between people who, according to their cultural backgrounds, feel, think and act differently. When cultural diversity and differences are taken into account, greater creativity, more diverse ideas and faster problem solving are achieved. The cultural dimensions, according to Geert Hofstede, offer a comprehensive model for capturing the various expressions of intercultural values. This paper examines the motives for applying e-working in selected European countries in 2018 according to Hofstede’s six dimensions of national culture. Twenty-eight countries from the Eurostat database were analysed (Finland and the Netherlands were excluded, and software detected them in the e-working variable as outliers). Correlation with e-working is statistically significant at PDI (power distance index - negative: the lower the PDI index, the higher the proportion of e-working) and IVR index (indulgence versus restraint - positive: the higher the IVR index, the higher the proportion of e-working).

description: Introduction Antipsychotic psychopharmacotherapy is associated with the risk of drug-induced liver injury (DILI). However, understanding specific risk factors remains challenging due to limited data. This study investigates the relationship between receptor binding affinities and occupancies of antipsychotics and their associated hepatotoxic risks. Methods A disproportionality analysis with calculation of the Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR) and the Information Component (IC) was conducted using data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to identify signals related to the Standardised MedDRA Query “drug-related hepatic disorders”, which served as a proxy for drug-induced hepatotoxicity. This was followed by a pharmacoepidemiologic-pharmacodynamic approach to investigate the relationship between the ROR and substance-related receptor binding affinities and occupancy, which was estimated based on in vitro receptor-binding profiles. Results Significant signals were identified for several antipsychotics, including chlorpromazine, loxapine, olanzapine, and quetiapine, with chlorpromazine and loxapine showing the highest RORs for DILI. Gender-specific analysis revealed a higher frequency of signals in female patients. Statistically significant negative correlations were identified between the ROR for drug-related hepatic disorders and the affinity for serotonin receptor 5-HT1A (r (17) = -0.68, p = 0.0012), while a positive correlation was observed for cholinergic receptors (r (17) = 0.46, p = 0.048). No significant correlations were found related to other receptors or drug properties. Conclusion Our findings suggest that the serotonin and probably the cholinergic system may play a role in the development of DILI related to antipsychotic medications. The identification of antipsychotics with a higher association with DILI, such as chlorpromazine, underscores the need for careful monitoring in clinical practice. However, our findings need further longitudinal studies to confirm causality. A better understanding of the associations may inform clinical decision-making, particularly in patients with an increased susceptibility to liver damage.

description: Introduction: Despite the potential impact of missed visits on the outcomes of neuromodulation treatments, it is not clear how this issue has been addressed in clinical trials. Given this gap in the literature, we reviewed articles on non-invasive brain stimulation in participants with depression or chronic pain, and investigated how missed visits were handled. Areas covered: We performed a search on PUBMED/MEDLINE using the keywords: ‘tDCS’, ‘transcranial direct current stimulation’, ‘transcranial magnetic stimulation’, ‘depression’, and ‘pain’. We included studies with a minimum of five participants who were diagnosed with depression or chronic pain, who underwent a minimum of five tDCS or TMS sessions. A total of 181 studies matched our inclusion criteria, 112 on depression and 69 on chronic pain. Of these, only fifteen (8%) articles reported or had a protocol addressing missed visits. This review demonstrates that, in most of the trials, there is no reported plan to handle missed visits. Expert commentary: Based on our findings and previous studies, we developed suggestions on how to handle missed visits in neuromodulation protocols. A maximum of 20% of missing sessions should be allowed before excluding a patient and these sessions should be replaced at the end of the stimulation period.

description: Background: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of an integrase inhibitor (INI), dolutegravir (DTG), in combination with abacavir (ABC)/lamivudine (3TC) in France, in treatment-naive (TN) HIV adult patients. Methods: The ARAMIS microsimulation Markov model, evaluates costs and effects of DTG vs. first-line ARVs options including INIs (raltegravir, elvitegravir/c), protease inhibitors (PIs) (darunavir/r, atazanavir/r, lopinavir/r), non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (efavirenz and rilpivirine). Efficacy and safety data were derived from phase III studies and network meta-analysis. Treatment algorithms were based on French guidelines and experts opinion. Costs included routine HIV and opportunistic infection care, and death. Results: The model showed the fixed-dose combination DTG/ABC/3TC was more effective than all other recommended regimens: patients stayed longer on first-line, and lived longer and healthier. With the exception of EFV, DTG/ABC/3TC was more efficacious and less costly compared to all strategies. The cost per QALY gained (ICER) for DTG compared to EFV was €6,939. DTG/ABC/3TC was more efficacious and less costly compared to INIs and PIs in all deterministic sensitivity analyses. Conclusion: DTG/ABC/3TC was cost-effective in the management of HIV TN patients in France. These results are mainly explained by its lower price compared to other INIs and PIs, DTG’s superior efficacy and high barrier to resistance.

description: Purpose: Anecdotally it is recognised that management of tracheoesophageal speech (TES) post-laryngectomy varies between speech language pathology (SLP) services and clinicians. This study reviewed patterns of practice for TES management to examine patterns of practice and explore factors influencing variability. Method: A national survey was completed by SLP’s from clinical services which manage TES. This online survey examined demographic and caseload information, initial voice prosthesis (VP) placement and procedures, VP cleaning and care recommendations, humidification management, equipment and service provision, and service delivery options at each site. Result: Lead clinicians from 34 sites (85% response rate) responded. Most clinical practice regarding initial VP insertion and management, as well as the timing and delivery of voice rehabilitation was highly consistent. Patient use of antifungal medications, TES and associated equipment provision, humidification management immediately post-surgery and some aspects of initial VP insertion were variable between services. The nature of the clinical setting, equipment funding and level of research evidence influenced variability in practice. Conclusion: Variability exists in a number of aspects of practice across Australian services offering TES management. Sources of variability need to be addressed nationally to ensure there is consistent, quality care available for all patients.

description: Warning signal variation is ubiquitous but paradoxical: low variability should aid recognition and learning by predators. However, spatial variability in the direction and strength of selection for individual elements of the warning signal may allow phenotypic variation for some components, but not others. Variation in selection may occur if predators only learn particular colour pattern components rather than the entire signal. Here, we used a nudibranch mollusc, Goniobranchus splendidus, which exhibits a conspicuous red spot/white body/yellow rim colour pattern, to test this hypothesis. We first demonstrated that secondary metabolites stored within the nudibranch were unpalatable to a marine organism. Using pattern analysis, we demonstrated that the yellow rim remained invariable within and between populations; however, red spots varied significantly in both colour and pattern. In behavioural experiments, a potential fish predator, Rhinecanthus aculeatus, used the presence of the yellow rims to recognize and avoid warning signals. Yellow rims remained stable in the presence of high genetic divergence among populations. We therefore suggest that how predators learn warning signals may cause stabilizing selection on individual colour pattern elements, and will thus have important implications on the evolution of warning signals.

description: Linguistic and genetic data have been widely compared, but the histories underlying these descriptions are rarely jointly inferred. We developed a unique methodological framework for analysing jointly language diversity and genetic polymorphism data, to infer the past history of separation, exchange and admixture events among human populations. This method relies on approximate Bayesian computations that allow to identify the most probable historical scenario underlying each type of data, and to infer the parameters of these scenarios. For this purpose, we developed a new computer program PopLingSim that simulates the evolution of linguistic diversity, which we coupled with an existing coalescent-based genetic simulation program, to simulate both linguistic and genetic data within a set of populations. Applying this new program to a wide linguistic and genetic dataset of Central Asia, we found several differences between linguistic and genetic histories. In particular, we showed how genetic and linguistic exchanges differed in the past in this area: some cultural exchanges were maintained without genetic exchanges. The methodological framework and the linguistic simulation tool here developed can be successfully used in future work for disentangling complex linguistic and genetic evolutions underlying human biological and cultural histories.

description: The AARC Blueprint Architecture (BPA) provides a set of building blocks for software architects and technical decision makers who are designing and implementing access management solutions for international research collaborations. This document describes the evolution of the AARC Blueprint Architecture, starting with a summary of the changes since AARC-BPA-2017. The current iteration of the BPA focuses on the interoperability aspects, to address an increasing number of use cases from research communities requiring access to federated resources offered by different research and e-Infrastructures. Hence the introduction of the Community AAI, which streamlines researchers’ access to services. These typically include services offered to members of a specific community, as well as infrastructure services that may be shared with other communities. Users can authenticate to the Community AAI primarily via institutional credentials from national identity federations in eduGAIN, but, if permitted by the community, can also use other Identity Providers.

Popular music, the Christian story, and the quest for ontological security
Creators: name: Gillard, David
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2020

description: The crisis of socialisation into Christian belief is, in part, evidence of Western secularisation. Added to this, there is evidence of significant existential restlessness. Moreover, many individuals feel alienated from the Church, which has been the historic Western provider of a discourse offering ontological security. Such restlessness finds emotional expression within a popular music culture that frequently interrogates Christian belief. It is argued here that not only is there a hegemonic resistance to Christian discourse, but that the Church inadvertently colludes with these forces, favouring its historic, rationalistic methods of evangelism, the effectiveness of which is now limited. This thesis offers a model to redress aspects of this disconnect, arguing for the significance of affective spaces within which spiritual reflection is encouraged. Using Zygmunt Bauman’s sociology of liquid modernity the thesis considers the fluid nature of Western society. In particular, it explores the ways in which popular music articulates core themes in a society in which individuals are effectively bricoleurs, drawing from popular culture in order to tactically resist hegemony. Central to the discussion is the idea that humans are ‘hard wired’ to develop a sense of self in a proto-musical manner. Drawing on these ideas, the thesis examines popular music as an ‘asylum’ and as a ‘prosthetic technology,’ stimulating meaning-making affective spaces. By using creative space for spiritual reflection, it is argued that the Church can encourage “affective-reflective dialogue” to help individuals listen to the Christian discourse in liquid modernity.

description: Liquid-based cytology (LBC), since its inception in the 1990s, has shown significant advantages over conventional exfoliative cytology. LBC gives better results than conventional method as it not only enhances both sensitivity and specificity, but also provides material for further investigations. However, LBC requires expensive automated devices and materials, which might not be affordable for many cytopathology laboratories in countries with poor resources. In order to formulate an economic cytological procedure with the accuracy of LBC, smears made out of manual liquid based cytology (MLBC) technique was followed in this study and the results were compared with respective conventional cytology smears. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first comparative study between MLBC and conventional method done for oral cavity in normal buccal mucosa. One hundred apparently normal subjects who reported to the outpatient department were selected after obtaining informed consent from all the subjects. Two Scrapings were made in each patient from the clinically normal appearing buccal mucosa. Both conventional and MLBC smears were stained by routine Papanicolaou technique and evaluated by three independent observers for specimen adequacy, thickness of the smear, uniformity of cell distribution, clarity or resolution of the cells, presence of background artifacts, and staining characteristics of the cells. Each parameter was graded as satisfactory; satisfactory but limited; or unsatisfactory. Number of satisfactory results obtained in MLBC smears was significantly higher than that by conventional smears. After comparison of smears prepared from conventional cytology and manual liquid-based cytology, we conclude that manual liquid-based cytology is both cost effective and also technically sound method with specific and clear results.

description: Psychotherapy endows a sense of control in patients gripped with emotional conflicts which allow them to handle their reflexes and regain composure through conscious and behavioral alterations. These transformational changes can be brought about by improving their listening skills, observational capacities, creating awareness, making them more attentive and intervening. Specialised tools and techniques are employed through the course of therapy which not only alters but also accentuates their cognitive and effective understanding. The idea of amalgamating these two broad ambits: the complexities of psychology and dynamism of artificial intelligence has gained momentum in recent times. This review focuses on how machine intelligence through computer-implemented psychotherapeutic tools can enhance self-awareness through computer-implemented psychotherapeutic tools can enhance self-awareness.

description: Analysis of the latest census data for 2000 and 2010 shows that 88 out of 336 Chinese municipalities suffered combinations of total, urban and hukou population loss. A general ordered logit model examines the ways manufacturing decline, services growth and demographic vitality interact in a specifically Chinese context of population control, contributing empirically and theoretically to studies of city shrinkage. Chinese experience shows that while some cities act as growth engines in emerging economies, others may shrink, and this process may happen before the completion of a rural–urban transition. These findings call for a modification of China’s growth-oriented urban policy.

description: Background: Social comparison is a basic human process, which may change dependent of one’s age. The purpose of this study was to examine how Social Comparison Orientation (SCO), i.e., the tendency to engage in social comparisons, varied across the lifespan. Method: A representative sample of 1613 adults from the Netherlands filled out the widely used 11-item scale for Social Comparison Orientation (SCO). Age was categorized in terms of decades, including both 19 years or younger and 80 years or older as categories. Results: The results showed a strong curvilinear effect of age: SCO was highest among people 19 years or younger, decreased substantially with increasing age until the age of 60, after which it increased moderately. Women were somewhat higher in SCO than men. Conclusion: The tendency to engage in social comparisons changes considerably over the life span, which may be due to the different challenges and insecurities that people may face in different stages of the life span.

description: Oral presentation at Shaping9 conference, Warsaw, Poland. 

Healthcare, in general, and orthopaedics and bone treatments, more specifically, are a few of the crucial fields that 3D printing has revolutionised. Trying to answer the demand for more affordable and personalised treatments for osteopathic patients, the AffordBoneS project aims to explore the field of bone regeneration and offer customised and low-cost solutions for bone augmentation. Vat photopolymerization has gained prominence in the bone tissue engineering owing to its ability to fabricate intricate structures that closely mimic the natural bone tissue. Thorough cleaning of uncured ceramic slurry from the as-printed structures is essential, as the presence of residue within the structure can obstruct pores during sintering. Given the limitations of conventional spray cleaning for these structures, this study seeks to investigate alternative cleaning approaches. Specifically, the efficacy of dibasic ester (DBE) and LithaSol 80, coupled with ultrasonic and soaking methods, is examined to identify optimal strategies for the thorough removal of viscous residual slurry (LithaBone HA 480).

description: Background: past studies have investigated the relationship between mourning and the quality of life in caregivers who care for terminally ill patients. Recently, complicated pain has been recognized as a risk factor for mental and physical health and severe suffering can interfere with individual functioning and social relationships. Every day, home-based palliative care workers confront health professionals who may develop complicated pain after the patient's death. Methods: the aim is to identify family members who take care of a high risk of complicated pain and to do this the SISIFO Consortium has developed a psychological intervention program to prevent complicated pain in family caregivers of terminally ill patients. Results: the common features of the psychological intervention and the future directions of the research were discussed. Conclusions: the purpose of this document is to illustrate the detailed procedure of the palliative home care service. Furthermore, the results of the psychological intervention program adopted by the service were briefly summarized.

description: The way the researcher groups his research data will influence the result of his work. In the literature, this phenomenon is treated as a Problem of the Modifiable Areal Unit. The objective of this article was to analyze the three spatial levels by Municipalities, Regional Centers and Mesoregions using the following data: gross domestic product, effective agricultural production, grain production and gross value of agricultural production for the state of Paraná-Brazil in the period since 2012 until 2015. The methodological procedure studied data from the Paranaense Institute for Economic and Social Development of the above-named variables collected on the website of the Paranaense Institute for Economic and Social Development of the 399 municipalities, 23 regional centers and 10 mesoregions. The results found show the presence of the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem, presenting different results for each level of grouping. The study revealed the problem of the modifiable areal unit is a relevant occurrence and it should be disregarded by researchers who work with clusters of spatial data in their studies. The results found allow a better understanding of the scale effect and demonstrate the efficiency of spatial analysis in socioeconomic data.
