La réforme de la police en Belgique : un compromis à huit tentacules

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The Reform of the Police in Belgium : a Compromise with Eight Tentacles. Reflection upon reform of the police in Belgium began in the middle of the 1980s, following a large number of highly publicised ‘affairs’. The First stage of the reform process has been the demilitarisation of the police and the development of a strategy of inter-communal co-operation. This has been followed by more radical reform projects. A consensus among the different Belgian political forces has allowed an agreement to be found which constitutes one of the most important reforms ever known in Belgium.
Temporomandibular joint ankylosis and salivary mucocele in a cat: case report

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

An approximately 1.5-year-old, not neutered mixed breed cat was referred for evaluation of inability to open its mouth, and soft tissue swelling around the intermandibular region. Both signs were present since the cat was adopted, 1 year before presentation. The cause of the signs was not determined prior to referral. Based on the physical and radiographic examinations, left temporomandibular joint ankylosis and salivary mucocele were diagnosed. The lateral aspect of the condyloid process of the left mandible was removed and the salivary mucocele was treated by right mandibular and sublingual gland resection and drainage of the mucocele. After surgery, the cat showed good functional use of the mandible without discomfort.
Acamprosate may be safer than baclofen for the treatment of alcohol use disorder in patients with cirrhosis: a first description of use in real-world clinical practice

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Objectives Patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and liver cirrhosis benefit from stopping alcohol intake. Baclofen has been trialled for AUD in cirrhosis and appears to be effective. However, in patients without cirrhosis acamprosate is safer and more efficacious. Acamprosate is rarely used in cirrhosis due to safety concerns: the only published report was for 24 h in a controlled setting. Our centre uses both medications off-label in cirrhotic patients. We performed an audit to pragmatically compare the safety of acamprosate to baclofen in these patients. Methods The electronic records of patients prescribed acamprosate or baclofen between 01/04/17 and 31/03/20 were retrospectively reviewed. Adverse events and abstinence at last follow-up were compared by Student’s t -test, Mann–Whitney U or chi-square test. Confounding variables were evaluated by logistic regression. Results In total 48 cirrhotic patients taking acamprosate (median 84 days, range 2–524); 44 baclofen (247 days, 8–910) met inclusion criteria. At baseline, 41% had Childs-Pugh B or C cirrhosis. More patients taking baclofen had an unplanned hospital admission or attendance (23 vs 13; P = 0.013) and the mean number per patient was higher (1.6 vs 0.6; P = 0.032). Sub-group analysis revealed increased admissions in actively drinking patients prescribed baclofen to achieve abstinence (mean 2.4 vs 0.6; P = 0.020); acamprosate use was associated with a reduced chance of admission or attendance (OR, 0.284; 0.095–0.854; P = 0.025) independent of treatment length. No difference in efficacy was observed. Conclusions In patients with cirrhosis, acamprosate was associated with fewer unplanned admissions than baclofen, hence may be safer despite historical concerns.
Renk algısı üzerine kültürler arası bir çalışma : Türkler'in Türk olmayanların mavi algılarının karşılaştırılması

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Turkish speakers differentiate the blue region of color spectrum into mavi (blue) and lacivert (dark blue); whereas non-Turkish speakers in this study had only one color term in the blue region. The present study aimed to explore the predictions of the Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis. Operationally, Categorical Perception (CP) effects were used. In Experiment 1, Turkish speakers performed a naming task to determine an average category boundary between mavi and lacivert. In Experiment 2, both Turkish and non-Turkish speakers’ color-difference detection thresholds were estimated on the average boundary as well as within the mavi and lacivert categories. The thresholds were also estimated in the green region, in which both groups had only one color term. 2-TAFC method, which eliminates the effects of memory or labeling and isolates the perceptual processes, was used to estimate the thresholds. Turkish speakers, and not non-Turkish speakers, were predicted to show CP effects only in the blue region: thresholds should be lower on the boundary than within-category. The result revealed that Turkish speakers’ color-difference detection thresholds were lower than those of non-Turkish speakers both in the blue and the green regions. The difference in the green region does not rule out the LRH. It is possible that this difference resulted from the limitations of the study. Finally, in Experiment 3, Turkish speakers’ thresholds were also estimated on their individual boundaries. The patterns of the thresholds revealed by Experiment 3 were similar to the pattern of the thresholds in Experiment 2.
Ethnobotanical study on medicinal plants used for jaundice treatment in the Central East of Burkina Faso.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract: Aims: According to WHO data, Burkina Faso is classified as a high endemicity zone for hepatitis infection. The vaccine of hepatitis B is not well known in this country and the majority of the citizens cannot afford it. Therefore, many people refer to the traditional healers for the management of their liver health issues. It is why, this work is aimed to collect the medicinal plants used by the traditional healers from twelve (12) villages in the central-east of Burkina Faso for the jaundice’s treatment. Method and materials: The data were collected using an open and semi-structured methodological approach, involving in-depth interview with traditional healers and families recognized for their expertise in this type of treatment. Results: Forty-two (42) plants species, nineteen (19) healers and one family identified as the best specialist of the jaundice’s management in this area were interviewed. The clearance of the symptoms like icter, nausea and general bad feeling have been considered as positive indicators of the efficacy of the jaundice’s management. Conclusion: Traditional African Healers use various medicinal plants for hepatitis and liver-related disorders, some of which have shown scientifically validated effects. Therefore, the high prevalence of hepatitis highlights a critical necessity for pharmacological and clinical investigation of some traditional medicinal plants in Burkina Faso.
Heat Transfer Coefficients Analysis in a Helical Double-Pipe Evaporator: Nusselt Number Correlations through Artificial Neural Networks

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In this study, two empirical correlations of the Nusselt number, based on two artificial neural networks (ANN), were developed to determine the heat transfer coefficients for each section of a vertical helical double-pipe evaporator with water as the working fluid. Each ANN was obtained using an experimental database of 1109 values obtained from an evaporator coupled to an absorption heat transformer with energy recycling. The Nusselt number in the annular section was estimated based on the modified Wilson plot method solved by an ANN. This model included the Reynolds and Prandtl numbers as input variables and three neurons in their hidden layer. The Nusselt number in the inner section was estimated based on the Rohsenow equation, solved by an ANN. This ANN model included the numbers of the Prandtl and Jackob liquids as input variables and one neuron in their hidden layer. The coefficients of determination were R 2 > 0.99 for both models. Both ANN models satisfied the dimensionless condition of the Nusselt number. The Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm was chosen to determine the optimum values of the weights and biases. The transfer functions used for the learning process were the hyperbolic tangent sigmoid in the hidden layer and the linear function in the output layer. The Nusselt numbers, determined by the ANNs, proved adequate to predict the values of the heat transfer coefficients of a vertical helical double-pipe evaporator that considered biphasic flow with an accuracy of ±0.2 for the annular Nusselt and ±4 for the inner Nusselt.
Evaluative Meanings of R. Kipling’s Poetical Metaphors within the Concept QUEEN and Their Role in Creation of Cognitive-Stylistic Effects

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The paper provides a cognitive-stylistic analysis of R. Kipling’s poetical metaphors, reveals their stylistic functions and role in the formation of the readers’ value vectors and in the transformation of frames and slots determining the concept QUEEN. Originality of the study involves identifying Kipling’s original axiologemes represented by metaphorical images and other artistic expressive means. Practical value of the findings consists in a new approach to analysing interrelation of value standards of the poet, recipient and society.
Development of an Integrated Tactile Sensor System for Clothes Manipulation and Classification Using Industrial Grippers

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This paper presents the design and development of a novel tactile sensor system for clothes manipulation and perception using industrial grippers. The proposed system consists of a multi-modal tactile sensor and embedded re-programmable interface electronics. The sensing element features a matrix of capacitive pressure sensors, a microphone for acoustic measurements, and a proximity and ambient light sensor. The sensor is fully embedded and can be easily integrated at mechanical and electrical levels with industrial grippers. Tactile sensing design has been put on the same level of additional requirements, such as the mechanical interface, cable harness, and robustness against continuous and repetitive operations, just to name but a few. The performances of the different sensing modalities have been experimentally assessed using a test rig for tactile sensors and the system has been successfully integrated and tested on a real robotic gripper. Experiments have been performed in order to show the capabilities of the sensor for implementing tactile-based industrial gripper control.
Listening to Anohni's variously vibrating voice: studying transfeminine vocality in 21st-century popular music culture through the concept of vocal figurations

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract This article examines the work and reception of singer-songwriter Anohni to investigate sonic and discursive negotiations of transfeminine vocality in 21st-century popular music culture. Developing Haraway's concept of feminist figurations, it introduces the concept of vocal figurations, which articulates a performative, relational and multiply mediated understanding of voice, wherein gendered voice takes shape through processes of voicing and listening. I initially examine Anohni's reception to analyse how biologist, trans-exclusionary and othering discourses surrounding voice and gender inform emergent discourses of transfeminine voices in the first decades of the 21st century. Subsequently, I build on trans and queer theorisations of voice and listening to engage Anohni's variably vibrating voice as a vocal figuration that may challenge biologist and marginalising constructions of transfeminine vocality. I suggest that it may attune us to recognise all gendered voices as thoroughly situated yet changeable configurations of sounding voices, bodies, and subjects.
Membrane Status and Reliability of Intrapartum Transperineal Ultrasound in Cervical Dilatation Assessment

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background and Objectives: Labor progression evaluation through repeated vaginal examinations remains the primary method of monitoring in delivery rooms globally. Transperineal intrapartum ultrasound has been shown to be reliable for assessing cervical dilatation, with substantial concordance with digital vaginal examinations. However, none of the analyzed studies investigated the influence of membrane integrity on ultrasound measurements. This study assessed the impact of membrane status on cervical dilatation evaluation via transperineal ultrasound compared to clinical examination, and the extent of agreement based on dilatation level and membrane status. Methods: A nine-month longitudinal observational study was conducted in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic of “Sfântul Pantelimon” Clinical Emergency Hospital (Bucharest, Romania). Patients underwent two clinical examinations and two transperineal ultrasound measurements, one at a dilatation less than 8 cm and the other at a dilatation closer to full dilatation (above 8 cm). Agreement between clinical and ultrasound measurements was analyzed based on membrane integrity and dilatation level. Results: In total, 239 patients were included, and 478 cervical dilatation measurements were obtained. Only the 7–8 cm subgroup exhibited statistically significant differences in accuracy between patients with intact and ruptured membranes. The Pearson correlation results for membrane status were 0.87 (p-value < 0.001) for intact membranes and 0.91 (p-value < 0.001) for ruptured membranes. Both groups show a strong positive correlation, suggesting that ultrasound and clinical measurements tend to increase simultaneously, regardless of membrane status. Conclusions: Transperineal ultrasound is useful for labor monitoring, but its accuracy decreases significantly in advanced labor, especially beyond 8 cm dilatation and in cases with ruptured membranes.
Mechanical Upscaling in Highly Heterogeneous Rock Masses: Impact on Anisotropy and Subsurface Stress Prediction in the Bone Spring and Wolfcamp Formations of the Delaware Basin, USA

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

ABSTRACT: The unconventional Bone Spring and Wolfcamp Formations are the development focus in the Delaware Basin. However, the high heterogeneity of the reservoir rocks challenges the selection of landing zones and increases the uncertainty of well performance. Estimating faithful elastic properties and predicting stress profiles along the wellbores are key to improve production and stimulation design. We acquire over 3,000 feet of continuous cores from five wells in New Mexico, Delaware Basin. We combine a variety of high-resolution, whole core-based characterization techniques that include hyperspectral and dual energy computed tomography imaging, ultrasonic velocities, and scratch index profiling, to quantify intrinsic, fine-scale variability in vertical transversely isotropic elastic properties indicating Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio perpendicular and parallel to bedding. Geomechanical averaging of this thinly bedded medium is then upscaled to a petro-mechanical facies scale for geological modeling and stress prediction. Elastic anisotropy as an emergent property of the upscaling process is contrasted with the anisotropy determined from the traditional core-plug based approach. Implications for stress profile prediction are discussed. 1. INTRODUCTION The Permian Basin of west Texas and southeast New Mexico constitutes the largest oil reserve and the highest producing oil field in the United States. The component Delaware Basin to the west incorporates significant development in the Bone Spring and Wolfcamp Formations. The Bone Spring Formation represents a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate succession deposited as sediment gravity flows under cyclical sea level fluctuations (Montgomery, 1997; Blake, 2020). Due to the cyclic sedimentation associated with changing sea level, the Bone Spring Formation can be subdivided into 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Bone Spring carbonates followed by sand units. The underlying Wolfcamp Formation records deepwater deposition of organic-rich mudstones interbedded with calcareous mudstones, calcareous siltstones, carbonates, and argillaceous mudstones that were deposited within mixed carbonate-siliciclastic fan systems (Yeap, 2021). In general, the Wolfcamp Formation can further be separated into A, B, C, and D units (Gaswirth, 2017). Both formations consist of mixed sediment gravity flow and suspension sedimentation deposits which often exhibit thin beds and facies resulting in high heterogeneity (Bievenour and Sonnenberg, 2019). Thin bed analysis is critical for reservoir property characterization but can be challenging when heterogeneity regularly exists at length scales below wireline log resolution (2 – 3 feet). Therefore, acquiring high-resolution measurements can significantly assist in identifying and quantifying thin-bed heterogeneity and properties assignment.
Use of Private Offices in Education of Residents in Internal Medicine

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Of the 440 accredited residency programs in internal medicine, 129 assign residents to private offices. From this group, 29 program directors with 47 resident-preceptor teams matched to the same offices submitted a complete set of questionnaires for analysis. The results provide information concerning the selection process for this assignment, its design and development, the nature of the educational activities, and evaluation and financing. The results suggest that the private office may be an effective learning experience for medical residents and an underused educational resource. A particular strength of the experience may be the frequent and effective resident-preceptor interactions, which seem to focus mostly on problem identification and clinical decision making.
[Efficacy of the urine antibody test for detection of Helicobacter pylori: comparison with serum antibody tests].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A urine-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (URINELISA) for detection of the antibody for H. pylori has recently been developed. We evaluated the diagnostic capability of the URINELISA test in comparison with two serum IgG antibody kits (HM-CAP and Helico G) for H. pylori infection. The subjects of this study were 173 patients. H. pylori was detected by means of culture, immunohistochemical staining and rapid urease test of endoscopically obtained biopsy specimens. A positive diagnosis of H. pylori was when at least one of three tests was positive and a negative diagnosis when all three were diagnosed as H. pylori positive and 23 as negative. We also examined the diagnostic potential of the antibodies in urine and in serum by using the results of the bioptic methods as the gold standard. The sensitivity of both URINELISA and HM-CAP was 93.3% and that of Helico G 94.7%, while their respective specificities were 47.8%, 65.2% and 52.2%. The URINELISA kit thus showed high sensitivity but relatively low specificity. The latter was due to sampling errors in the bioptic procedure because the subjects of this study included many elderly patients with atrophic gastritis. The level of the antibody in urine decreased markedly after 2 months of eradication therapy. We conclude that the URINELISA kit is as effective as serum antibody kits for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection.
Conditions for Equivalency of Countercurrent Vessel Heat Transfer Formulations

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Previous models of countercurrent blood vessel heat transfer have used one of two, different, equally valid but previously unreconciled formulations, based either on: (1) the difference between the arterial and venous vessels’ average wall temperatures, or (2) the difference between those vessels’ blood bulk fluid temperatures. This paper shows that these two formulations are only equivalent when the four, previously undefined, “convective heat transfer coefficients” that are used in the bulk temperature difference formulation (two coefficients each for the artery and vein) have very specific, problem-dependent relationships to the standard convective heat transfer coefficients. (The average wall temperature formulation uses those standard coefficients correctly.) The correct values of these bulk temperature difference formulation “convective heat transfer coefficients” are shown to be either: (1) specific functions of (a) the tissue conduction resistances, (b) the standard convective heat transfer coefficients, and (c) the independently specified bulk arterial, bulk venous and tissue temperatures, or (2) arbitrary, user defined values. Thus, they are generally not equivalent to the standard convective heat transfer coefficients that are regularly used, and must change values depending on the blood and tissue temperatures. This dependence can significantly limit the convenience and usefulness of the bulk temperature difference formulations.
Radiologic Findings in Cases Involving Complications Arising from Total Knee Arthroplasty

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Total knee arthroplasty(TKA) has been used for the treatment of knee joint pain, deformity, and instability caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or tuberculous arthritis, and by virtue of good results and rapid development, the procedure has been increasingly employed. With the development of total knee prosthesis, complications have also increased, however, and due to complications occurring up to six years after surgery, fusion occurs in about 2% of all replaced knees. The most common complication of TKA is loosening, followed by infection. Others are thrombosis, subluxation, dislocation and fracture, and complications may be divided into four groups: biologic, technical, specific to type of components, and associated with certain diagnosis. Where these complications occur, a patient must undergo a second procedure, but the success rate is lower than for the initial procedure. Exact etiological evaluation important clinically and radiologically. We illustrate the etiologies and radiologic characteristics of TKA complications according to classification.
Biology, Behaviour and Biocontrol Efficiency of a Reduviid Predator, Sycanus reclinatusDohrn (Heteroptera: Reduviidae) from Southern India

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Sycanus reclinatus DOHRN , a reduviid predator, inhabits tropical evergreen forests of southern India. Females lay clusters of brown coloured eggs 22 d after emergence. The eggs hatch in 14 to 23 d and the pale‐ochraceous nymphs turn into deep‐ochraceous within 1 h. Total stadial period from I instar to adult ranges from 61 to 90 d at 32 °C. The different nymphal instars are taxonomically described. Male and female longevities are 5 to 54 d and 5 to 50 d, respectively. The sex ratio is slightly male biased. The predatory and mating behaviours are described. The biocontrol efficiency of this reduviid is also dealt with.
An automatic system for obtaining particle size distributions with the aid of the flying spot microscope

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

A method is described that enables an automatic count to be made of the number of particles within a microscope field that have a maximum dimension, in any chosen direction, exceeding a calibrated reference dimension. The method thus enables a histogram of size distribution to be constructed for any convenient grouping, and by rotating the area it is possible to detect whether unsymmetrical particles show a tendency to aline themselves in a particular direction.
