description: Drawing on twenty years experience as a choreographer collaborating in the creation of circus performances in Europe and South America, this paper explores how a notion of hospitality can be offered as both a philosophy and a framing for the development of contemporary circus language. Written in response to the creative processes underpinning my work with the award winning contemporary circus company eia – CAPAS (2011), InTarsi (2016) - my research focuses on the minutia of acts of exchange between circus bodies during the enmeshing of the different physicalities found in hand to hand acrobatic techniques and released-based forms of dance. It is within the processes of devising collaboratively in circus, where creative tensions emerge, that a notion of hospitality reveals itself as a philosophy for action as well as a generative choreographic tool. Derrida claims that, “[a]n act of hospitality can only be poetic" (2000:2), a gesture of giving and receiving that is in itself always an act of possible reversibility. For Derrida, hospitality becomes a lens and a means of re-thinking the political and ethical in that which is foreign to the body. In the melding of circus and dance techniques as part of a creative process, the artist encounters estrangement. Bodies of resistance adhere to what Zaccarini refers to in his Circoanalysis, Circus as Death Writing (2009), as “the moment in which years of accumulated embodied knowledge condenses in a ‘tightfisting’ of muscle and mind, the life/death moment where every cell strains to persist, wherein the organism lives most intensely because it is precisely living that is at stake.” In placing attention on how dance comes to circus as ‘other’ - through gentle acts of exchange, teasing textural qualities from ‘tightfisted’ embodiment, furthering the transgression of borders of self – the circus artist activates a philosophy-through-practice that opens up an understanding towards hospitality. Through the culture of encounter, hospitality in its questioning of how we arrive at borders, empowers the potential of difference. Bibliography Derrida, J. and Dufoumantelle, A.

description: This study found that mortality salience in TV news activated more hostile attitude toward the perpetrators and negative judgment on the immigration issue. Social group difference influenced news viewers’ immigration issue judgment, but did not affect their resultant hostility and perceived vulnerability. More negative attitudes emerged toward the immigration issue when immigrant perpetrators were portrayed negatively in the news. News viewers with exposure to mortality salience in TV news reported more negative toward immigrants. Exposure to mortality-related elements in TV news could lead to social conflicts that were viewed as a severe threat by U.S. government and policymakers.

description: Background: Fibrillary glomerulonephritis is characterized by randomly arranged fibrils, approximately 20 nm in diameter by electron microscopy. Patients present with proteinuria, hematuria and kidney insufficiency, and about half of the reported patients progress to end-stage kidney disease within 4 years. The dependence of patient characteristics and outcomes on race has not been explored. In this study, we describe a cohort of patients with fibrillary glomerulonephritis and compare their clinical characteristics and outcomes with those of patients previously described. Methods: The University of North Carolina (UNC) Nephropathology Database was used to retrospectively identify patients diagnosed with fibrillary glomerulonephritis between 1985 and 2015. Of these patients, those treated at UNC were selected. Their demographic and clinical characteristics - including signs and symptoms, comorbidities, laboratory values, treatments and outcomes - were compared with those of patients described earlier. Results: Among the 287 patients identified, 42 were treated at the UNC Kidney Center. When compared to earlier cohorts, a higher frequency of black race, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and use of hemodialysis were noted in both black and HCV-positive patients. Autoimmune diseases, infections and malignancies were frequently observed, present in over half of all cases. Conclusion: According to this study, fibrillary glomerulonephritis represents a secondary glomerular disease process (associated with autoimmune disease, infection or malignancy) in many cases and hence screening is essential. As the screening for comorbidities increased over time, more underlying causes were identified. We noted a high frequency of HCV among black patients, suggesting a possible causative association. Treatment of underlying disease is essential for patients for the best outcome.

description: Excimer emission of caffeine with α-CD and β-CD were studied by UV-visible, fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, FTIR, 1H NMR and molecular modelling techniques. Changes in the absorbance and fluorescence and lifetime of the caffeine with cyclodextrin (CD) solutions indicate (i) caffeine shows dual emission in the CD solutions, (ii) normal emission originates from a monomer and the longer wavelength emission is due to excimer and (iii) in both CDs caffeine forms 1:2 inclusion complex. Carbonyl stretching frequency moved to higher wave numbers and broadening of the N–H stretching band indicated the formation of inclusion complex. The resonance of the methyl protons of caffeine show remarkable upfield or downfield shift in the 1H NMR, which indicates imidazole ring of the caffeine entrapped in the CD cavities. Investigations of energetic, thermodynamic and electronic properties of PM3 computational calculations confirmed the stability of the inclusion complex.

description: Compounds 1 and 2 were synthesised using multi-component one-pot condensation reaction between 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde, urea/thiourea and ethyl/methyl acetoacetate, catalysed with Zn(ClO4)2·6H2O in methanol. Compounds 1 and 2 were purified and characterised using 1H and 13C NMR, mass and CHN analyses. Organic nanoparticles (ONPs) were developed from compounds 1 and 2 using reprecipitation technique. Size and morphology of nano-aggregates N1 and N2 were analysed using DLS and transmission electron microscope techniques. Nano-aggregates of 1 and 2 were further subjected to chemosensory applications in aqueous medium. Efficient nano-aggregates of compound 1 have shown excellent detection limit of 0.04 nM for chloride in aqueous medium. None of the other anions tested caused any interference in the detection of chloride. However, nano-aggregates of compound N2 were not active for any particular ion in aqueous medium. The difference in the recognition properties can be due to the difference in the size and electronegativity of oxygen and sulfur moieties attached on 1 and 2, respectively. The sensor was used to determine the chloride content in tap water. Results were validated using existing methods and the performance of the N1 was found to be in a satisfactory error range.

description: The current research aimed to compare the changes of phytochemicals, antioxidants, and anti-nutritional factors of yellow and black soybeans upon roasting. Yellow soybean was roasted at 210°C for 35 min and 230°C for 25 min, and black soybean was roasted at 210°C for 30 min and 230°C for 25 min. Isoflavones were significantly increased after the roasting process, while trypsin inhibitor was significantly decreased. The roasting process combined with the soaking process led to decrease in anthocyanin, soyasaponin, and antioxidant capacities. Black soybeans had more apparent variations in compounds than the yellow soybeans. For black soybeans, the processing under 230°C for 25 min presented more decrease in trypsin inhibitor and anthocyanin content. The roasting at a high temperature and short time produced products with a light color. Roasting combined with the soaking process had negative impacts on both yellow and black soybeans, but there were slight differences in the resultant compounds between different roasting temperatures.

description: Desde que la Comisión de las Naciones Unidas para el Derecho Mercantil Internacional (CNUDMI) identificó la necesidad de pronunciarse respecto al ámbito del comercio electrónico, pronunciamiento que se materializó en el año 1996 con la expedición de la Ley Modelo de la CNUDMI sobre Comercio Electrónico, es notable, cómo dichas disposiciones mantienen su vigencia en el tiempo y le son aplicables a las tecnologías actuales aun 28 años después. Naturalmente, conforme ha evolucionado el mercado al vertiginoso compás de las herramientas tecnológicas, la CNUDMI ha tenido que complementar su legislación con una serie de disposiciones que abarcan temas coyunturales de trascendencia global, con relación a las operaciones electrónicas. Siendo así, con base en varios documentos emanados por el Grupo de Trabajo IV (Comercio Electrónico) de la mencionada comisión, acompañado de un análisis de varios autores versados en las materias atinentes a este trabajo. En este documento, se pretende establecer una analogía, entre la naturaleza jurídica de los denominados “oráculos” desarrollados en el contexto de la tecnología blockchain, y los proveedores de servicios de confianza, referidos en la última ley modelo de dicha entidad, aprobada en el 2022.
description: Since the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) identified the need to address the scope of e-commerce, which materialized in 1996 with the issuance of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce, it is remarkable how these provisions remain relevant over time and are applicable to current technologies even 28 years later. Naturally, as the market has evolved at the dizzying pace of technological tools, UNCITRAL has had to supplement its legislation with a series of provisions that cover emerging issues of global importance in relation to electronic transactions. Therefore, based on several documents issued by Working Group IV (Electronic Commerce) of the aforementioned commission, accompanied by an analysis of several authors versed in the matters relevant to this work. In this document, it is intended to establish an analogy between the legal nature of the so-called "oracles" developed in the context of blockchain technology, and the trusted service providers, referred to in the latest model law of said entity, approved in 2022.

description: Regional resilience to displacements. Regional Studies. This paper contributes to knowledge about regional resilience to displacement and examines the extent to which the characteristics of the (1) regional closures, (2) individuals in a region, (3) regional industry, (4) regional economy and (5) regional attractiveness influence the re-employment of displaced employees. Regions where the average size of establishment closures is large or the regional displacement rate is high exhibit increased resilience in terms of re-employing displaced employees in the same region. Unrelated and related industrial variety are positively related to resilience to displacement in regions with low re-employment capacities, whereas there is some evidence that regional attractiveness is positively related to resilience in regions with a good ability to re-employ displaced employees in the same region.

description: In this study, the ultrasound technique was investigated to dye wool fabrics with the natural extract obtained from grape pomace as a way of reducing time, temperature and environmental impact. Indeed, this natural material was very rich in total polyphenolic compounds and total flavonoids (which are, respectively, 310 (mg GAE/L) and 75 mg (CE/L)). Further, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy showed that the major chemical groups identified in the extracted dye and in the dyed wool fabrics are characteristics of phenolic compounds. The experimental findings of the dyeing process showed that ultrasound method could improve obviously the dye exhaustion and fixation which resulted in improving considerably the colour yield (K/S) and the fastness properties of dyed fabrics compared to the conventional heating method.

description: We describe the otolith assemblage from the early Miocene (Burdigalian) exposures of the Castillo Formation at the Cerro La Cruz locality (Falcón Basin, Lara State, northwestern Venezuela). The samples were obtained through surface and bulk sampling at distinct stratigraphic levels of the study area. The otolith assemblage from Cerro La Cruz includes 14 families, 25 genera and 30 taxa, of which 20 are reported for first time from the Castillo Formation. These include two new sciaenid taxa, Ctenosciaena angusticaudata nov. sp. and Pareques laraensis nov. sp. The Castillo Formation otolith assemblage represent fishes typical of shallow and near-shore and coral reef associated environments as characterized primarily by a high taxonomic diversity and abundance of Sciaenidae, and the lack of mesopelagic families (Myctophidae). The faunal composition of Cerro La Cruz is similar to other chronological equivalent sedimentary units along the proto-Caribbean area (Pirabas and Cantaure formations; Brazil and Venezuela respectively), though the Castillo Formation fish fauna shows lower taxonomic diversity, suggesting some heterogeneity of the coastal and near shore marine environments along the southern portion of the proto-Caribbean. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:B79F51B8-BC35-4119-8957-84544286868D

description: Scolymus hispanicus or the Golden Thistle, locally known as ‘Guernina’ or ‘Taghediwt’, is one of the most appreciated wild vegetables in Morocco. This study aims to characterise the functional chemical and pharmacological variability of Scolymus hispanicus parts (roots, stems, leaves and flowers). The chemical analysis revealed higher content of α-tocopherol in the flowers (2.79 ± 0.07 mg/100 g) and lead to the identification of 3 flavonoids and 13 phenolic acids, with high content of gallic acid in leaves (187.01 ± 10.19 mg/kg); chlorogenic (936.18 ± 92.66 mg/kg) and caffeic (4400.14 ± 191.43 mg/kg) acids in flowers, roots were much more higher in sinapic acid (0.25 ± 0.03 mg/kg) compared to the other parts. Moreover, Scolymus hispanicus ethanolic extracts exhibited interesting antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, promising anti-amylase and anti-glucosidase activities and relevant diuretic effect that confirms its traditional uses.

description: Issue ownership has gained a prominent position as one of the key theories to understand how voter’s issue perceptions affect their electoral behavior. Yet, whereas the original theory assumed that party reputations were relatively stable, various studies have shown that issue ownership perceptions fluctuate over time. Despite the growing evidence that ownership perceptions are dynamic, we know surprisingly little about the determinants of change, especially at the individual level. This paper develops an individual-level framework to understand how issue ownership perceptions change over time, arguing that mediated party communication is a key driver of change. It also incorporates individual features of voters, most notably their political predispositions – as determinants of changing issue ownership perceptions. We test our model on unique longitudinal panel data from Belgium, spanning a five-year period. The results suggest that party communications, government participation, party size and voter’s party preferences determine changes in ownership perceptions.

description: Seeds of Tagetes lucida were imported to Egypt from Canada and propagated under greenhouse conditions in peat moss media. Soil was sandy in texture and the irrigation system was dripping irrigation. The growth parameters were determined at five successive plant ages, fresh and dry weights of herb were determined at three successive plant ages. The yield of aerial parts after 175 days, was about 7.5 Mg/ha. The essential oil (EO) was extracted by hydro-distillation for three hours with a yield of about 0.5% (w/v). The EO of each sample was subjected to gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry analyses to study the chemical composition. The main component of the EO was identified as methyl chavicol which matched over 90% of the whole composition. Chlorophyll a and carotenes increased with increasing plant age in both sites and seasons. Flavonoids decreased with the development of plant age, while the opposite was true with coumarines content.

Drug interactions

description: Les Curares (myorelaxant) ont été découverts par les Indiens de l'Amérique du Sud et sont une partie irremplaçable de l'anesthésie moderne. La relaxation musculaire est très important pour l'intubation, la chirurgie et aux soins intensifs. Les curares peuvent être dangereux pour les patients si un bloc neuromusculaire résiduel n'est pas détecté et correctement traité. Aujourd'hui les myorelaxants sont d'une action plus courte avec un profil d'effets secondaires plus favorable et nous avons enfin un antagoniste à portée de la main, le Sugammadex, qui peut terminer l'action d'un certain myorelaxant, le rocuronium à tout moment de l'anesthésie. La surveillance neuromusculaire est devenue un standard de pratique clinique. Cependant les interactions médicamenteuses peuvent mener à une prolongation ou la récurrence de leur effet. Ceci reste toujours un problème en anesthésie.

description: Les progrès récents de la médecine d'urgence pédiatrique ont mené à l'implémentation au sein des services d'urgence de tests de diagnostic rapide (Point-of-Care Testing, POCT). Ces tests montrent de nombreux avantages: réduction du délai diagnostique et du temps de séjour aux urgences, réduction du nombre de tests additionnels et traitements non nécessaires, réduction du délai jusqu'à la prescription du traitement approprié, réduction du volume sanguin nécessaire, et possibilité pour un personnel non entrainé de réaliser le test facilement. Cependant, plusieurs éléments sont à prendre en considération: le contexte clinique dans lequel le test est effectué afin de pouvoir en interpréter le résultat, son exactitude par rapport à un test de référence, l'assurance du maintien de la qualité, ainsi que la mise en place de protocoles cliniques de prise en charge, afin de pouvoir offrir aux patients pédiatriques une médecine d'urgence sécurisée et plus personnalisée.

description: We recall the systematic formulation of Eulerian mechanics in terms of Lie derivatives along the vector field of the material points. Using the abstract properties of Lie derivatives we show that the transport via Lie derivatives generates in a natural way a Poisson structure on the chosen phase space. The evolution equations for thermo-viscoelastic-viscoplastic materials in the Eulerian setting is formulated in the abstract framework of GENERIC (General Equations for Non-Equilibrium Reversible Irreversible Coupling). The equations may not be new, but the systematic splitting between reversible Hamiltonian and dissipative effects allows us to see the equations in a new light that is especially useful for future generalizing of the system, e.g.for adding new effects like reactive species.

description: Malnutrition is one of the components of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), but the mini nutritional assessment (MNA), which is the proposed screening tool in geriatrics, was challenged in its capacity to predict adverse outcomes in severely ill older patients. Therefore, we showed that body composition was predictive of mortality and could be useful in the assessment of malnutrition replacing or in addition to the MNA. CGA and further recommendations can decrease the rate of adverse outcomes after an emergency department (ED)-visit like ED readmission, nursing home admission, functional decline, and death. As CGA is time-consuming and ED is particularly challenging about this topic, screening tools were developed, targeting high-risk patients who are the most likely to benefit from CGA. We showed that one of these screening tools avoided performing CGA in patients who were negatively screened.

description: Recent years have seen considerable progress in the understanding of pathophysiological and pathobiological aspects of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH): a vasculopathy resulting in a progressive obliteration of the small pulmonary artery, progressing to right heart failure and death. PAH-specific drug therapies target the discovered pathophysiological pathways and aim to improve hemodynamics and increase exercise capacity, both major prognostic factors. PAH needs to be distinguished from the other causes of pulmonary hypertension (PH) due to left heart disease, lung disease or chronic thrombo-embolism (CTEPH). Here, the treatment must target the underlying cause. Nevertheless, the survival improvement in the modern management era is still unsatisfactory and PH outcome, whatever the cause, remains poor. This implies that PH should undergo a comprehensive diagnostic workup and be managed with ambitious goal-oriented strategies. Supervised exercise training has also recently been considered as of interest in these strategies where treatment goals rely mainly on clinical evaluation, exercise capacity and hemodynamic parameters. Hence, new tools allowing early diagnosis and unmasking new criteria of disease severity and response to treatment are needed in PH management. This is particularly true in PAH and CTEPH. In this line, innovative and non-invasive exploration of cardiodynamic response to exercise may reply to several unmet need. For instance, exploration of pulmonary circulation and hemodynamics during exercise may help diagnostic workup and guide therapeutic strategy. The aims of the present thesis are i) to demonstrate how physiological explorations in healthy subjects may allow a better understanding of the consequence of hemodynamic impairment on exercise response and ii) to explore the ability of non-invasive techniques to help physician for hemodynamic evaluation in pulmonary hypertension.
Inhibition of oxidative protein folding in gram-negative bacteria : fragment-based design of DsbA inhibitors.

description: The disulfide-dithioloxidoreductase enzyme DsbA is an oxidative folding catalyst found in the bacterial periplasm and is a key determinant of virulence in Gram-negative pathogens. DsbA has a wide spectrum of substrate specificity and has been demonstrated to catalyse the formation of disulfides in numerous secreted proteins. DsbA operates at a central point in the production of virulence-determinants because most virulence factors are proteins that require disulfide bonds to be active. DsbA knockout mutants in E. coli, have been shown to be impaired in a range of processes related to virulence. Significantly, DsbA mutations in many pathogenic bacteria attenuate their virulence, demonstrating the value of targeting DsbA to develop anti-bacterial agents to counteract virulence. DsbA is a structurally as well as functionally well characterized protein which has no direct homologue in eukaryotes. To date there are no known small molecule inhibitors of this protein. Hence DsbA represents an attractive antibacterial target and is the protein of interest for this project. The current thesis reports the identification of scaffolds that are suitable starting points for designing inhibitors of DsbA. These scaffolds were identified using a fragment-based drug design (FBDD) approach. This study describes a structure assisted-FBDD process performed to validate DsbA as an antibacterial drug target. A broad range of complementary techniques were employed to identify inhibitors of DsbA from two different Gram negative bacterial species; Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae. NMR based screening of a fragment library was carried out in two rounds. Theprimary screen employed STD (Saturation Transfer Difference) experiments to identify candidate hits and 1H-15N HSQC (Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence) experiments were used to confirm binding. A number of strong hits were identified and the binding locations were identified from the HSQC data. The binding efficiency of the fragments was determined by calculating NMR-based dissociation constants.Several of these initial binding fragments also show inhibitory activity in a phenotype assaysin E.coli. X-ray crystallographic studies revealed that the most potent fragment hits bind in the hydrophobic groove of EcDsbA in adjacent or overlapping positions. Charactisation of the structures of complexes of EcDsbA with theoriginal NMR hits was followed by fragment elaboration through structure-guided medicinal chemistry efforts. Preliminary structure-activity relationships(SAR) were identified for several series. This SAR will facilitate the development of novel DsbA inhibitors that specifically target functionally important protein surface sites. In conclusion, this study presentsthe discovery of novel small molecule inhibitors of DsbA and provides insights into the development of potential DsbA inhibitors as antibacterial drug candidates.
